The Author's POV

The sky was filled with a brilliant and enormous orange sun. The size of the sun was so enormous that it appeared to fill up half of the sky, turning the blue sky a muted orange color as a result.

A little table in white was perched on top of a vibrant patch of foliage. Jezebeth observed the landscape in front of him while he relaxed on a small chair.

"Human tea isn't too bad."

He held a small teacup in his hand. One that was opaque black in color and only filled halfway with a transparent green substance.

Jezebeth refilled his cup with more tea as he observed the calm and peaceful setting that had descended upon the surrounding places.

"Isn't this nice?"

Jezebeth muttered something under his breath as he removed the teacup from his grasp and placed it on the table.

The scenery before him was stunning.

Jezebeth felt this location to be very calming due to the presence of the enormous mountains in the distance that extended all the way to the clouds and the birds that could be heard chirping all around him.

A pleasant breeze was blowing through his body as he looked off into the distance and saw large trees that towered over the landscape.

Everything felt so peaceful and tranquil...

Especially when compared to the demon world, which felt rather stuffy for him.

Jezebeth, while silently mumbling to himself, picked up the teacup with his hand once again and crossed his legs.

"It pains me to know that I will soon have to bring about the destruction of this world. If it had been feasible, I would have kept it, but unfortunately, in order for me to do what I set out to do, I have no choice but to destroy this planet. "

He let out a sad sigh when he said those words.

After putting the teacup down once more, Jezebeth lifted his head to take in the orange-tinged blue sky and the enormous sun that was hanging in the sky.

Grasping his chin with his hand, he mumbled to himself.

"…This should be the third last planet that I need to destroy before seizing all of the fragments, right?"

There was a trace of uncertainty in his voice as he said these words.

As a result of the fact that his memories had not yet been completely restored, he was unsure of the actual number of worlds that remained in his path of destruction. Three was his current estimate, but it could definitely be more than that.

It was necessary to point out that there were a great number of planets in the universe, and that it was not possible for him to destroy them all. The only type of planets he was interested in finding were the ones that concealed the planetary seed, also referred to as Akashic fragments.

They were his main source of strength and the key that would lead him to the Akashic records.

He was close.

He was practically on the cusp of achieving his objective. He had never been this close to actually getting his hands on the records in his entire life, but at the same time, he had an exceedingly dreadful foreboding that kept him alert at all times.

"…Just why can't he kill me?"

Jezebeth realized one thing after recovering part of his memories after consuming additional fragments; Kevin was refusing to kill him. For whatever reason, he seemed adamant about keeping him alive.

....And it was for this exact reason that made Jezebeth felt uneasy.

"What exactly are you planning? …and what exactly am I missing?"

No matter how hard he tried to understand what was going on, he just couldn't get his head around it.
