As the Demon King vanished from Heaven, only Amon and Yue remained within the endless sea of clouds and golden sands.
The two stood in silence.
This was what they had fought for all this time. To overthrow Hyades. To drive the Demon King from their homeland. To protect everyone they held dear.
And yet, as victory finally settled upon their shoulders, neither of them felt the joy they had imagined. Instead, they felt the weight of the road that still lay ahead.
"Hah..."
Yue collapsed onto the sand and stared up at the boundless sky.
"We finally did it, and now there's another enemy waiting for us? When do we finally get to rest?"
The thought of another war was enough to exhaust her. They had spent years struggling against Hyades and the Demon Empire. They had bled, suffered, and sacrificed more than either of them cared to remember.
Yet now they had learned that beyond their world stood Demon Kings whose power dwarfed anything they had faced before.
