481 THE HERO AND THE VILLAINESS

"NEOMA, it's not yet too late to stop all of this."

The orange sky held both the sun and the moon at the moment…

… along with the king and the queen that represented them, respectively.

Commander Yoan Solfrid, the God Slayer and the son of the God Among Gods, hovered over the horizon where the sun and the moon met– above the surface of the ocean under his feet. He held Hiu, the ancient bow in his left hand, and a single lightning bolt for an arrow in the right.

Neoma de Moonasterio, the abandoned princess who had lost her mind to the worst Lunacy in history, was also suspended in the air– opposite the Sun King. She held the flaming horns of the God of Wrath that she had just killed in her bloody hands.

But, if one looked closely, the "ocean" below the two wasn't a real ocean– it was Impure Mana. The murky liquid was the substance produced by the Darkness attribute users who were burned to death.
