New paths.

The battle finally ended and Jay and McElroy started returning both of them were tired. But they still walked.

Viva returned to the island for the last time to pack everything up and leave.

As Both of them walked they saw the bodies of soldiers of Raizon and demons alike being claimed by the sea. After walking and walking. They finally reached the shores of the island. Jay's feet gave up and he fell on his feet. But after a moments breath he got up on his feet. And looked at the state of the town. Everyone in the town was dead. Burned by the deathly rays of the sun which fell on the battlefield.

It burned all the houses which were made out of wood. And it climbed lives of many. While the final stroke was when he froze everything in the area and this caused everyone to die due to lack of heat.

No one survived even the ones innocent their lives were also claimed by the Gods. The god only used three magic attacks but their magnitude was very high.

The flames of the battle dwindles as the rain pours water onto the burning area.

The sea which was open closed off. As all the water which was held back collided into one another and mixed together.

While the various abominations gathered together started going back. As there was no food incoming.

Jay and McElroy made their way to the edge of the town.

Where Viva interrupted them for the last time.

McElroy :

What do you want now.

Viva :.

This might or might nor be the last time we meet.

But there is something tou need to know.

Evan Swan still roams the desert.

Jay :

How is that possible, I himself saw him be freed.

Viva :

You should go there as well you make your trip.

McElroy :

You're actually bluffing aren't you.

Viva :

I wish, I don't know how this has happened. But just also look into it as well.

McElroy :

Then why don't you go there.

Viva :

I'm done here, I can't go anywhere because an important moment is starting.

Jay :

Just why did you want to kill me.

Viva :

Same as before, your were a threat to Mcelroy's life as he would have followed you wherever you went.

And that's how he would die. But that moment is now gone.

And so will I from your lives. This is the last time we meet.

Jay's phone rang but he couldn't bear to look at the screen.

Jay and McElroy finally retreated to the camp where the soldiers of Raizon had set their camp.

As he approached the camp the soldiers prepared medical aid for both of them. Advanced medical aid was given to both of them as well as priority over the treatment over the other soldiers.

Our wounds were filled just our clothes were torn and both of us were covered with blood on our bodies

Sara watched over both of them as both of them had come after a long battle. She couldn't help but wonder if she hadn't taken back the troops at the optimal moment then all the troops might have been wiped out by Sein.

But she couldn't understand one simple thing why did Sein use such grandeur attack. Just to take out a single person.

He put everyone there at risk. But as he is God what can you even do. Take him to court.

And even Jay and whoever this is? Took the attacks head on and even survived. Though even with magic they couldn't maintain their

Sara :

Are you okay. Oh my god you're bleeding.

Jay :

It's not my blood.

Sara :

Where is McElroy and who is he.

Jay :

This is McElroy.

Sara couldn't believe in the joke. Jay couldn't either.

Sara :

Dont kid with me. I know this isn't McElroy. He looks nothing like him.

Jay :

I know that, but he is. Just in a new anime boy form.

Sara :

Anime?

Jay :

Oh, well.

Sara :

Looks like your head isn't in the right place. You both should clean your wounds and go to sleep.

Jay and McElroy washed off the blood and all the other excrement that they were covered with. And had some food which was prepared by the camp. And after an hour they went to sleep.

It was a long night for them. But fatigue made it extremely short for them.

The night fell silent and the day arose with the blazing suns brazenly spreading around it's aura. And the sign that life is still worth living.

Sara :

I'll be leaving back to Raizon. And as their ruler you must come back to Raizon as well.

McElroy :

We were just there to take advantage of the promise between you and Jay. Now there's nothing between us anymore.

You're already a better Queen for your people. Because you understand them much better than us. It will be much better for you to lead them. Who knows we might escape again.

Whatever McElroy spoke it felt like there was some weight to his words. So much that even zsara couldn't refute McElroy claims.

Sara :

Well flattery will get you nowhere remember McElroy.

McElroy :

But I was telling the truth.

Sara :

There you go again.

Finally they left leaving us without a ride. But we were living in the different direction to Raizon. Raizon lied in the north western point where we were heading east.

And we had to cover quite a distance before night fall.

So we started running. A human can run for almost 43 kmph

But not us we ran just about twice that. It was like a race to finish line.

McElroy :

So where are we heading first.

Jay :

I would like to head to the desert first. But that is miles away from where we are going.

Firstly well be passing to the Chroma ruins as a landmark then after that. There is a town nearby where we can rest.

After that. We will arrive at the forest.

We can decide afterwards where we want to go.

Is there some place you want to go.

McElroy :

There was this place I heard as a rumor in the guild.

The name was Tower of conquerer.

I think it is somewhere past this waterfall.

Jay :

We we as mughr go there too.
