Elden Ring: Atai vows to have a perfect ending

boom--

The black and red thunder seemed to tear the space apart in an instant, and the turbid dragon roared, swallowing the man in front of me in one gulp.

The impact of the explosion spread along with the turbulence of lightning, causing the entire courtyard to tremble with the gorgeous flowers in full bloom.

The red lightning bestowed by the ancient dragon, plus the power of [Death], the move just now is the strongest attack I can release now.

But looking at the rolling dust in front of me and taking a sip of the Blue Dew Drop Holy Grail, I still held my sword tightly and remained vigilant.

The hot breeze gradually dissipated the smoke and dust in the throne room.

I saw a large piece of stone bricks being lifted up in a fan shape, and the ground was covered with black and red flames of destined death.

Among them, King Ge Fulei supported his knee with one hand and slowly stood up.

The fire touched his body and burned it. His armor was cracked and damaged, and bright red blood oozed from his entire body.

Ge Fulei simply stretched out his hand and tore the armor into pieces, throwing them on the ground.

——As expected, he hasn’t fallen yet?

I had no choice but to prepare for attack again.

The other party also took a deep breath and waved his hand, causing the broken battle axe to fly back into his hand: "So that's how it is. You do have the strength to become the king, Faded One. But..."

“Enough!” Suddenly, Mungert interrupted the other party loudly. He strode forward, crushed the silver cane with force, and once again revealed the cursed sword wrapped in it. “Zero’s power is indispensable for us to create a new era. Moreover, among all the people here, only he may know how to deal with the Beast God... I can’t let you fight like this anymore, father.”

Mongert held his sword across his back to protect me.

Even General Latan laughed and said, "Although it is a bit unromantic to intervene in the fight between two warriors, Brother Monggot is right. It just so happens that I am itching to fight too. Next, can you let me experience your power, King Gefulei?"

Ge Fulei's brows twitched slightly: "I remember that you are the descendant of the Full Moon Queen?"

Latan respectfully performed a knight's salute: "I am honored that you still remember me, respected King Gefulei. I am the eldest son of the Full Moon Queen Reinara, Latan! If you still want to continue fighting, then please let me teach you!"

After saying that, Latan also drew out his two star-breaking swords.

"It looks quite interesting." Nepheli also said, stepping forward to join in. "Speaking of which, Zero, you still have to save your energy. Let us do the rest."

“······It’s too early to conserve your strength. We haven’t even entered the tree yet.” I couldn’t help but complain.

Nepheli then gave me a look that told me to shut up.

And Monggot continued to persuade him, "Father, you have been away from the border for a long time, and you may not know what happened afterwards. Mother smashed the magic ring that maintained Elden, causing the natural order of the border to collapse. In addition, people have been fighting for years for the so-called God King, and their lives are in misery... The border is heading for destruction! Now, we have finally gathered everyone's strength and seized the opportunity to save the border. Therefore, please take a look. There are also warriors who have followed you to fight all over the world. We have longed to reshape the magic ring for a long time. If you insist on hindering it, don't blame us for disobeying you!"

Mongget's words were stern and righteous, which moved Ge Fulei.

He turned his head and looked towards the entrance of the Throne Courtyard. Rodel's knights and the Crucible Knights also saluted and urged loudly: "King, please think twice!"

"You are the person that mother trusts the most, and you should also be the one who knows her best, father." Mengget sighed and continued, "In this situation, if mother were here, what choice do you think she would make?"

"······Malika." Gefulei seemed to be touched by Mongget's words again. He turned his eyes and looked into the interior of the golden tree.

I thought about it carefully, and then stepped forward and said, "King Gefulei, actually, none of us know what's going on inside the tree right now... If Queen Marica is still conscious, it would be best if she could help us repair the Elden Ring for your sake. So when the time comes, why don't we go into the tree together? How do you think?"

Silence lasted for a long time, and finally, Ge Fulei finally put down his battle axe: "...It seems that this is also a good choice."

Seeing this scene, one could feel that everyone in the entire Throne Court heaved a sigh of relief.

After arranging for all the soldiers to go back to their posts, Mongette also stepped forward and briefly explained to Gefulei the general situation that would happen after entering the tree, as well as the plan we had discussed before.

Of course, Monggot did not explicitly state that Radagon and Marika were two souls in one, but simply transformed it into the possibility that the hero would appear at that time and prevent us from reshaping the Elden Ring.

——After all, the news was so explosive that even Mongget himself might not know how to accept it for a while. He could only decide based on the circumstances.

If I had told Ge Fulei about this in advance, I don't know what he would think.

After all, no matter what, Radagon is Marica, in other words, Gefulei's wife? If you think about it more extreme, it is not impossible that Gefulei will fight with Radagon to protect Marica.

It’s not easy for us to say it directly, we can only wait and see what the situation will be like.

However, I am still quite curious about what Gefulei thinks of Radagon.

"From what Marica said, that man is her distant relative, and he is indeed very powerful. Moreover, he is very loyal to the basic laws of the Golden Doctrine, and he has made many military achievements when he shaped [Eternity]. He can be regarded as Marica's confidant." Since the stabilization, Ge Fulei has been sitting in the throne garden, looking at the burning golden tree and recalling the past. "I am also quite interested in that man. After all, as a warrior, I want to fight him a few moves, but Marica always stops me. And Radagon seems to always avoid me, which can be said to be quite indifferent."

——Won't he have to avoid you? It would be bad if the flaws were discovered by the person who knows Marika best.

I complained in my mind.

"...However, I didn't expect so many things to happen in the border area after I was exiled." Ge Fulei suddenly sighed, "After I woke up, I followed Marika's voice and returned here alone, thinking that something bad had happened to her. But I didn't expect that she would even break the eternal world she created... I don't know much about the law. Now I think if I could share some of her worries when she is in trouble, maybe everything would be different. In comparison, Radagan may understand the Golden Law more thoroughly than I do, so he can help Marika."

"..."

——It was so helpful. The queen in the later period almost hated her own half.

I even remember a passage in which the Queen called the other person the dog of the Golden Rule.

Ge Fulei, who didn't know the truth, continued: "...You have revised the law and reshaped the ring. You can be regarded as inheriting Marika's aspirations and helping her complete her unfinished business. It is really precious. A warrior like me can only use this battle axe to help."

"Don't say that, King Gefulei!" I said with a smile, "With you here, everyone's fighting spirit is much higher than before, and we are more confident that we can defeat the Beast of Elden and realize the new law!"

"... So, father, you should know how mother created the Eternal Dynasty, right?" Monget suddenly asked, "Have you ever seen the closed door of death?"

"Death's Door?" Ge Fulei was a little confused.

I quickly explained, "It's a door made of many people melted together, leading to the world of Death. Our laws are problematic at this stage."

Ge Fulei frowned and thought for a long time before he said uncertainly: "...From what you said, Ling, it seems more like the gate that Marika passed through when she truly became a god."

“Eh? Is there really such a door?”

Ge Fulei nodded: "However, the gate of God is in the Shadow Land, which is Marika's hometown."

······Huh? The Land of Shadows.
