<h4>Chapter 1494 Congrattions, to me! </h4>


    "Guys?"


    Varian called out with a forced smile, his eyes moving wildly to scan the crew that demolished his room.


    "We know it already." Princess Elizabeth spat through gritted teeth.


    "Huh?"


    "You are the harbringer of destruction, an agent of chaos…the Ender of Worlds." Despite a pale face, the princess said with a determined gaze, as if she was ready to die facing the malovent entity standing in front of her.


    "Well, I do appreciate the cool sounding titles but I''m just your average guy on the street." Varian said as he slowly stood up, hands raised above his head to show he meant no harm.


    And yet, that motion caused everyone to reel back and charge auras into their weapons, ready to hit him.


    "Demon King, is this how you treat the man who risked his entire life for your victory?" Varian asked with an indignant expression, his eyes showing the pain he''s feeling out of the betrayal.


    "Shut up, bastard!" The Demon King mmed his staff on the ground, causing arge hole in the pristine floor.


    With a wave of his hand, a green-colored magic filled the room. Since it showed no malice, the human powerhouses didn''t do anything than cover themselves in aura.


    "Anyone facing it can only speak the truth." The lord of all demons sneered, his bony jaw moving up and down in an equallyical and scary fashion. "You are nning to end this world, aren''t you?"


    Varian took a deep breath, the sounds of rising heartbeats in the room clearly registering in his ears.


    "Your assumptions about what my dream are incorrect, Your Majesty. You want to ask me what will happen today? Tomorrow? I will put my hand on my heart and vow, that even after a hundred years, thisnd, this world, everything you see will exist." He said with a sincere smile.


    Wiping the flowing sweat from his forehead, he continued. "You call me agent of chaos and all those coo—ahem, sphemous names. But I am sent by a great being into this ce, for his own whims. It''s the same being who created this great world and a million others. The god of gods."


    A pious expression filled Varian and he looked up at the sky with teary eyes. "Are you listening? Oh, Creator! This world I wish to dedicate my life to…it has turned against yourmb!"


    "I-Impossible…" The demon king staggered back, the mes in his eyesockets fluctuating wildly. "Impossible, the f-mes of truth are indicating everything he said is the truth. R-Ridiculous! Absolutely ridiculous!"


    Varian sniffed back the tears that threatened to spill out and admonished the disbelieving demon king. "Demon King, do you know why you survived despite facing so many dangers? HE is looking after you. HE is responsible for your fate. HE didn''t want you to dead."


    ''If demon lord dies midway, how else would the story proceed? Tsk.''


    The Demon Lord opened his mouth but no word came out. Thinking back, indeed, he survived too many dangers. It''s almost like fate intended him to be what he''s today.


    ''Perhaps it''s really the Crea—''


    Boom!


    The human powerhousesunched an attack when no one was expecting. Varian put on his defenses at thest minute, but was sted away, flying into the clouds in a blink.


    Kicking the ground, the Kings of the five kingdoms as well as their finest knights, shot into the sky like missiles, their weapons aiming to finish off the scammy bastard.


    Unlike the Demon King, they didn''t believe a single word that came out of his mouth.


    "Demon King, this man will gain the power to destroy the world. Would deceiving your spell be a challenge for him?" Princess Elizabeth, on the ground along with others, said with a stern expression.


    "Ah!"


    Her words struck him an arrow. Despite feeling that Varian''s words had some degree of truth to them, the Lord of all Demons decided that this man better not be left alive.


    With a gesture of his hand, a magical chain was woven out of thin air and wrapped around Varian.


    Injured with a few broken bones and blood spilling from fresh injuries, Varian looked at the demon king''s attack and sighed. "I really tried."


    With a snap of his fingers, the space fluctuated and he disappeared.


    "Huh? He''s there! A hundred mil—two hun—four hundred miles away!"


    The powerhouses chased after the enemy at full speed, destroying everything—houses, markets, entire viges—in their path.


    Varian had only rank 2 paths. He couldn''t technically outrun any rank 3 chasing


    him.


    However, when the power of two paths wasbined, the story changed.


    Space and Time were used together, pushing him not only into a further spational co-ordinate but also through an earlier time instance.


    He pushed himself through dangerous teleportations that would''ve torn even the most expert space awakeners due to the stress it put on their bodies.


    But he withstood the stress with his physical body, casually facing pressure that would''ve caused others to explode.


    And yet—


    Boom!


    A huge pir of light exploded, shooting striaght into the clouds.


    Then another. And another.


    Until the whole area was swallowed in explosions.


    Varian''s body, on the verge of copsing, slowly floated down.


    The light in his eyes was dim and his breath was non-existent. His heart, now visible through his hollowed chest was struggling to beat. And failing.


    "Thankfully, no one was naive enough to believe we can take on a world ending cmity so easily."


    Princess Elizabeth arrived shortly after along with the powerhouses of human and demon races.


    The Demon King didn''t hesitate anymore and pointed his staff at the bloodied Varian.


    With a bang, his body exploded into pieces.


    Everyone looked at each other in disbelief, wanting to feel relieved that they finally saved the world but unable to digest that they really killed the world ending cmity.


    The heroes puffed out their chest and wanted to talk to the princess who swiftly dimissed them and turned to the demon king. "This can happen again. Instead of our fights, we should look outward."


    The Demon King looked at the bits of blood, flesh and bones still raining from the sky without answering.


    The Princess frowned. "Your Majesty, instead of conflicts, we can form an alliance and a cooperation. With me recieving the guidance of the goddess and your power, we can protect this world."


    "Haaa~" The Demon King shook his head and looked at the princess with a depressed smile. "No need to worry, human girl. Do you think after everything that happened…I still have the interest to wage a world war? What will ruling a bigger piece ofnd aplish?"


    Not just the princess but even the subordinates of the demon king who followed him from early days opened their mouths in surprise.


    W-Was this really their leader or did someone rece him?


    Demon King had always been a man overflowing with ambition. What''s with the change of heart?


    "Ahh, I''ve never seen an enlightened, peace loving demon king. I guess I did aplish something amazing."


    A voice sounded from behind.


    The demon king, the princess and everyone else on the scene froze like statues before moving their necks stiffly.
