Invicinble Colorless Butler

327 Epilogue



“What do you mean by regaining the power of the Origin God? Do you intend to turn me back into me of the past and fight against those primeval gods?” Ziel narrowed his eyes and asked the Chaos Titan.

Ziel will fight against those primeval gods in the future. They were the ones who had destroyed Azalia’s world and targeted the divine race. So he must fight to protect his family. But Ziel didn’t want to be his past self to do that.

“Of course, you don’t need to be your past self, my lord. Even if you regain your memory, you still have a choice. Whether you want to return to being the Origin God or continue to be who you are today is up to you.” The Chaos Titan said.

The words of the Chaos Titan sounded honest, and Ziel couldn’t feel the slightest lie in his voice. Even so, he was able to believe him quickly.

“Are you serious about what you said? Then, what is your purpose in giving the Origin God’s power back to me?” Ziel felt like he couldn’t take that power for free.

When Ziel gains the power of the other three continent guardians, he must try his best to defeat them. But Ziel’s battle against the Chaos Titan wasn’t over yet, and none of them had won. So he was hesitant to accept that power.

“I know what you’re thinking. But from the start, the battle wasn’t meant for you to win it. I want to see your readiness to regain your power in the past, and you pass my test. That power is yours and will come back to you. I just returned it to its owner.” The Chaos Titan could feel doubt on his face. He could see the Origin God figure in Ziel.

“If I regain my power, will the system on this continent also disappear?” Ziel asked. He recalled the Chaos Titan’s explanation of the system on the continent and its origin. Ziel was worried that Kalya and the others from the Clorius continent would lose their power if the system disappeared.

“You don’t have to worry about it, my lord. The system had completely fused with this continent. Unless you destroy the Clorius continent, that system will never disappear.” The Chaos Titan knew what Ziel was worried about right now. He fights not for himself but his family. If he could become stronger but make Kalya and the others lose their powers, Ziel would resolutely refuse that.

“So what I got back was only the power of the four guardians of the continent and wouldn’t have any impact on the Clorius continent and its inhabitants? Are you sure about that?” Ziel narrowed his eyes at the Chaos Titan. He had to confirm it correctly before he made a decision.

“Yes. Although we are called the guardians of the continent, we are a separate entity from the system on this continent. So you don’t have to worry about the repercussions on the Clorius continent when you decide to take back your power, my lord.” The Chaos Titan nodded and replied.

Ziel was silent and pondered the Chaos Titan’s words. If he were asked if he wanted to get his powers back and become stronger, he would say yes. Ziel felt that the primeval gods would come to the Clorius continent sooner or later. At that time, a great battle will break out in this world.

He needed absolute strength to protect Kalya and the others from those primeval gods. If those beings found out that the system on the Clorius continent was part of the Origin God’s power, they would not hesitate to destroy it and take away that power.

But Ziel had to think twice before accepting the unknown power of the Chaos Titan. He still couldn’t trust the Chaos Titan completely. Even though he had obtained the power of the other three continent guardians, the Chaos Titan was on a much different level. Ziel was worried that it would have a side effect on him.

After thinking for some time, Ziel finally made up his mind. He saw the Chaos Titan and opened his mouth.

“Alright. I will receive that power back.” Ziel said with determination.

“But before I give that power to you, I want to tell you that you created the continent guardians in the past to protect this world from invaders. You feel indebted to the Clorius continent because you have been hiding here for a long time.

If we disappear, this continent will be exposed to the outside world, and the only one who can protect it is you, my lord. Those primeval gods will most likely come here too.” The Chaos Titan warned Ziel seriously.

“I’m ready for that. Sooner or later, they will notice my existence and come to this continent. I never thought of relying on your power to protect the people I love.” Ziel said in a deep voice.

“That’s good. Even though you don’t have memories of the Origin God, your disposition hasn’t changed. In that case, receive back your power, my lord.” The Chaos Titan smiled, and his body turned into a ball of gray light. Then it shot towards Ziel’s forehead.

“Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!” Ziel roared as the ball of light entered his forehead, and a terrifying power exploded from his body.

Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

A blinding gray light radiated from Ziel’s body and shook the entire area. Not long after, crack after a crack appeared in that place and shattered the gray world.

Clank!

A gigantic pillar of light pierced the sky and tore apart the surrounding clouds. A terrifying thunderstorm arose, and the space around Ziel collapsed, unable to withstand the pressure released by his power.

When Kalya and the others spread out in eleven different directions in search of Ziel, they were startled by a gigantic pillar of light that suddenly appeared with a terrifying thunderstorm. The impact left them blown away hundreds of meters and unable to get close.

“What is going on?” Kalya muttered, and her face became serious. She quickly contacted the other girls and asked them to gather.

Although Ziel didn’t have time to make defensive artifacts for them, he had made them a communication brooch to make it easier for them to communicate with each other. Not long after, Azalia and the girls appeared with panicked faces.

“What happened? Why did that pillar of light suddenly appear?” Kyouka asked.

“Is it possible that Ziel was there?” Princess Aishia muttered.

“Yes. He might be there with the Chaos Titan. But don’t even think about approaching that pillar of light. The shockwave was terrifying and dangerous. I’ve tried it, and it hurts my internal organs just a few steps I walk.” Azalia warned Kalya and the others seriously.

“So what should we do? Are we just going to wait here until the pillar of light disappears? But for how long? I don’t see any sign of it shrinking and quite the opposite.” Kalya looks at Azalia and asks for her opinion.

“For now, we can only wait. If we force our way into the pillar of light and get hurt, won’t Ziel’s efforts to protect us be in vain? We must be calm and not act rashly.” Azalia said.

Although Azalia looked calm outside, she was perturbed and couldn’t wait for the pillar of light to shrink. If it weren’t for Kalya asking her to gather right now, she would still be trying to barge in there.

“Azalia is right. But we better stay away from this area because the pillars of light and thunderstorms are expanding.” Queen Helena nodded in agreement and reminded Kalya and the girls. The pillars of light expanded rapidly and would soon reach their place.

“Yes. We’d better get away from this place and watch that pillar of light from afar.” Kalya sees the girls and nods. After that, they flew towards a plateau some distance away from the pillar of light.

An hour later, the giant pillar of light stopped expanding and slowly shrank. Kalya and the others carefully approached the center of the pillar of light. The girls raised their vigilance to the maximum because they were worried that the person in that place wasn’t Ziel but the Chaos Titan.

After the pillar of light completely disappeared, the girls saw a man both familiar and foreign to them. When the man turned his eyes to them, Azalia and the others were briefly dazzled but quickly alerted and went into battle mode. They were ready to attack the man at any moment but immediately stopped their actions upon hearing his voice.

“After you saw me, you intend to attack me? Shouldn’t you ask my condition first?” The man smiled and said playfully. The girls were shocked after hearing his words.

“Is that you, Ziel?” Kalya asked in disbelief.

***

After the pillar of light disappeared, Ziel finally managed to absorb all the power from the Chaos Titan. He felt that Azael’s seal had disappeared, and his emotions had returned. Even so, he still wasn’t used to expressing it properly. But then, Ziel suddenly frowned when he felt a mark inside his body after the seal disappeared.

“What’s this?” Ziel checked it for a while and then crushed it. He didn’t want anything strange in his body. After destroying the mark, Ziel felt several familiar presences approaching him. When he turned his eyes to them, the girls looked like they were about to fire their attacks at him.

“After you saw me, you intend to attack me? Shouldn’t you ask my condition first?” Ziel smiled slightly and said playfully.

“Is that you, Ziel?” Kalya asked in disbelief.

“Hmm? Have you not recognized your fiancé after a few hours of not seeing each other?” Ziel was confused by their reactions. Before, they wanted to attack him, and now they question his identity.

(Has something happened to my appearance?)

Ziel snapped his fingers, and a large mirror appeared before him. When he saw his appearance in the mirror, he frowned and looked at the girls.

“No wonder you don’t recognize me.” Ziel sighed. Although his characteristics did not disappear, Ziel’s appearance changed significantly. If before he had the face of a handsome boy with transcendent features, now he truly looked like a god who dazzled the world.

“Are you Ziel?” Kalya repeated her question.

“Yes. Don’t you recognize me anymore?” Ziel smiled and replied calmly. He could understand what the girls felt because he felt the same way when he looked at his appearance in the mirror and barely recognized himself.

“Ziel!”

“Ken!”

After the girls heard Ziel’s words, they finally believed that the man in front of them was the man they loved. Kalya and the others jumped into his arms without hesitation.

“Thank goodness you’re safe, Ziel!”

“Where’s the Chaos Titan?”

“Did you manage to beat him?”

“What happened to you? Why did your appearance change so drastically?”

The girls burst into tears and showered Ziel with questions. Ziel couldn’t help but smile and felt warmth in his heart.

“I’ll explain that when we get back. How is your condition now?” Ziel didn’t want to talk about the matter as it would take a lot of time. The most important thing now was to ascertain the condition of the girls after they forced themselves to channel their powers to him. Ziel was sure that the girls were severely injured.

“We’ll be fine after resting for a few days.” Kalya answered, and the girls nodded in agreement with her words.

“That’s too long.” Ziel snapped his fingers, and a pillar of light fell on the girls’ bodies.

“Huh!? What are you doing, Ken?” Azalia was confused by Ziel’s actions, but her face changed after realizing something. All the wounds on her body, inside and outside, had healed. Azalia and the others were about to question it, but Ziel quickly stopped them.

“We’ll talk about it at home.” Ziel looked at the girls seriously. He didn’t want to stay there for long. Princess Freya and the girls looked at each other and nodded. After that, they were shrouded in the gray light and disappeared from the place.

***

In a world in another dimension, a middle-aged man sits on a throne with his eyes closed. But then he suddenly opened his eyes and looked in a certain direction.

“I sensed the mark I had given one of the fleeing divine races, but it quickly dissipated. Luckily, I had locked the coordinates of that world. I won’t let the rats escape again. I must quickly retrieve the Origin God’s memory core before the other primeval gods notice it.” The middle-aged man said in a dignified voice and disappeared from his throne.
