Hero of Darkness

The future Kahn made a grand revelation to the current Kahn that his decision to kill the Hero of Fire, Axel Lobethrox saved the life of Maximus Gladius, the Hero of Nature.

This information left the current Kahn asunder in shock as he stared at future Kahn with eyes full of disbelief. "Whether intentional or not… the bonus point is you killed that bastard Axel Lobethrox. He was such a pain to deal with even for me because of his divine abilities.

On top of it, you befriended Princess Venessa and kept the Havi Hos Siegfreed, the Emperor of the Vulcan Empire alive in this timeline." he revealed another major event of the original timeline.

"If I had them as my allies, there would have been be a perfect balance of power in my timeline during the Great War." he iterated and let out a deep sigh.

"What do you mean? What happened in the original timeline?" asked Kahn with a confused countenance.

"Emperor Havi Hos Siegfreed died under unknown circumstances back then. But now I know that he was killed by the Church of Hetrax, led by Pope Demiurges.

They kidnapped his children and lured him to Flame Killer formation.

Soon after his death, both of his sons, Victor and Rogis were found dead under suspicious circumstances.

With the Emperor and both the Princes dead, Venessa became the official heir to the throne." revealed future Kahn with a thoughtful expression.

"Axel married Venessa and with the help of the Church of Hetrax, later he gained support of the 6 Fireborne Clans by marrying their heiresesses and finally, he became the Emperor of the Vulcan empire.

And since Axel also succeeded in Limit Break and had both Apples of Eden since he was the Hero and also became the Emperor, it ook him only 6 years and become a 7th-stage saint after I left the Vulcan empire." explained future Kahn.

"That bastard killed too many people later, including Maximus, who was one of my few friends among the Heroes and some of my helpers from the Cult of Darkborne." said future Kahn somberly.

"Wait! You met the Cult of Darkborne?" asked current Kahn.

"Yes. Some of them had been hiding in the Vulcan and Zivot empire from decades, instilled as spies by the person master Romulus told you about.

They were hiding there to find me after my existence became known to the world." he revealed.

Only now did Kahn remember about this person who sent his master Romulus and made the latter to train Kahn in the first place.

His identity… Kahn had no idea even to this day.

"Honestly… If I had fought the Hero of Fire during my stay in the Vulcan empire in the original timeline, I would have died for certain." admitted the future Kahn.

"Alas… Many things have happened differently already." he spoke in a stern voice.

"Such as?..." asked Kahn.

"The biggest deviating factor here is our mentor, Vildred Xyvsor Gown Ivrar Mortelix, the Lightening Dragon Emperor." revealed future Kahn.

"In my timeline, he was controlled by Emperor Aragorn Travion Insalor Venric of the Elven Empire. My guess is he conquered the Immortal Dungeon and passed the trials of the Commandement of Fellowship, and became Vildred's master.

Back then… Hero of Life was married to Princess Eleanor, the one you helped Aragorn kill in this timeline." stated future Kahn.

One after another, he dropped many surprising bombs about the events of the original timeline.

"In the end, Aragorn killed Eleanor using the Dragon Emperor because of what she did to him using the Commandement of Severed Fate forbidden spell.

But a few years later after the Conclave of Heroes, the truth was revealed and he was killed by Ervalen Baaslark, the Hero of Life.

And lastly, Vildred was then bound to the Hero of Life due to the Commandement of Fellowship which dictated that the one who kills the master, becomes the new master." revealed future Kahn.

This turn of events shocked current Kahn even more because not just the Vulcan empire, but also the fate of the Zivot empire was changed because of Kahn's inadvertent intervention.

"In the original timeline, Vidred was neither a friend nor a mentor. He was a dangerous foe no Hero or Heroine dared to actively fight. Not even that battle maniac called the Hero of Lightning.

Because Vildred was one opponent neither he nor other heroes could beat.

Even I could barely survive with my divine abilities against someone like him.

So one of the biggest adversaries from the original timeline and Hero of Life's biggest aces is now your ally and mentor.

You practically stole his destiny." declared future Kahn.

"There were many incidents in this timeline that you have affected significantly whether you wanted or not." he spoke solemnly.

"Whether it was becoming the sovereign of Verlassen or about causing the social reform regarding the Class structure across the Rakos Empire…

Changing the fate of the human species in the Vulcan empire by helping Venessa Hos Siegfreed.

Saving both the Princess and the Emperor and turning them into your allies…

Killing the Hero of Fire and saving Maximus' life even if you had no idea about the future…

Helping Aragorn kill Eleanor before she even married the Hero of Life, while making it look like the work of the Beast Empire…

You have changed the fate of 3 empires already." said future Kahn as if he was praising the current Kahn.

"However… there is one empire you didn't screw over in any way but saved it from destruction.

As a result of you killing the Hero of Fire… you have also saved the entire Beast Empire from imminent destruction." spoke future Kahn.

"What?! How does that make sense?" asked current Kahn with a stunned expression.

"Because after Maximus died, the balance of power during the war between the Demon Empire and others who served Gods and Goddesses also shifted.

"Do you remember Gideon talking to you about those Apples of Eden and how the Emperors and Empresses of these empires pledge their allegiances and serve the said God's doctrine?" asked future Kahn.

"Yes. He said that in return, they received one Apple of Eden and then the right to cultivate themselves inside Babylon to become a Peak Saint once they break through to 9th-stage saint rank." replied the current Kahn.

In his act of hubris, the Hero of Time mentioned this information before their fight started and thus, future Kahn also mentioning it made the current Kahn turn serious. "With Maximus dead, killed by Hero of Fire in an ambush… Empress Kaali no longer had a reason to support the God of Nature in the Great War.

Because even with the apple in her hands, the Great War would've have ended the world and she would never have enough time to reach Peak Saint rank at all." iterated future Kahn with a cold expression.

"And since the Nadur Empire lost their hero, the bastion who was supposed to be the representative of the will of their God… she did something that broke the balance of the war." spoke future Kahn with grim countenance as he declared the major turn of events in the original timeline…

"She joined the Demon God."
