Become Tyrant On My Own Way
Chapter 232 - FAREWELL
“Bad you, Cassandra! You betrayed me apparently after what I did for you in the past!”
The Demon King Ozazil inside Leon's body thrashed.
There is an inner upheaval between himself and Leon about who will be the true ruler of the body.
Ozazil condemned Yasmin strongly for her betrayal.
“It was wrong, King.”
“You never intended to save me.”
“You simply did it to get an interesting entertainment spectacle.”
“Ukh.”
“And am I not currently showing you an interesting spectacle?”
“About how the Devil King fell for the witch's betrayal. Ukh..”
“Yasmin!”
Helios called the name witch.
But what he called to the end is not the original name of the witch, but the name of the gift.
A name that became a sign that tied it to the witch.
The witch is dying.
As if ready to pay for his sins because he had been seduced by the whisper of the devil and finally trapped as a slave of the devil, Yasmin's determination had been unanimous.
Yasmin used all the last remnants of her power so that Helios would not fall into the same abyss as her father and her brother.
He wanted to get rid of his own king so as not to become a thorn that blocked the hero's steps.
He did not want the hero to experience the trauma for the umpteenth time.
He at least wants to save Leon, the only remaining hero brother in the world in order to become the hero's life support and encouragement.
He does not want the Devil King's plan to be realized with the Demon King using Leon's body to rampage until finally the hero must end the life of the younger brother, the only family left in the world, with his own two hands.
Yasmin did not want Helios to end in tragedy.
He who failed to save his father and brother because he was still weak at that time, at least wanted to save Helios, the one who gave him warmth at the end of his life when Yasmin began to give up on human goodness.
That's why Yasmin sacrificed.
With the sacrifice of his life, Yasmin wanted to remove the Demon King forever from the world for the happiness of the life of the man who meant so much to her, Helios.
Helios could only mourn him in tears.
He realized from the beginning that Yasmin would still die after the Demon King was defeated because what binds his existence in the world so far is the power of the Demon King.
However, to see that separation had to happen this way, Helios cried out.
“Master.”
“Yasmin.”
“Thanks to your head, Master.”
“After this, there will be even more obstacles that you have to face.”
“Everything has not ended with the destruction of the Demon King.”
“What is more sinister than the fate that awaits the heroes is mankind.”
“Never let your guard down and don't point out your weaknesses, except to people you really trust.”
“I hate to admit it, but Albert and Alice there are also one of them.”
“Doctor Minerva will probably never listen to your complaints seriously, but she is at least also a trustworthy person.”
“I don't know the priest there yet, but since he was chosen by the world as a hero party, maybe he's also a decent person.”
“However, it could not, so it depends how the Master will judge it.”
“There is also Nunu, the loli girl who always pisses me off.”
“But he is also a good friend you can trust.”
“Don't easily trust others, Master, but don't you also close your heart to the people who appreciate you.”
“Make your heart a filter against anyone you deserve to trust.”
“I'm sure Master can do well.”
“As the last..”.
“Yasmin?”
Hearing Yasmin suddenly stop her words in the middle, Helios finally lifted her head after a long time looking down, reaching for Yasmin.
Her tears are still flowing.
“You finally raised your head, Master.”
“As a last, for the sake of Ayahanda Priam and Kak Hector's part as well, please live happily.”
“Be the first hero in the face of this world who is able to get a happy ending.”
With a gentle smile, Yasmin disappeared from the world.
This is okay.
His life had been intertwined for too long in this world for over two thousand years.
That span of time was enough for Yasmin to realize all her remaining ambitions in the world.
He was also grateful that at the end of his life, he was finally able to finish his last regrets in the world.
The happiness of a hero.
His father and brother had failed to obtain it, but he was sure that if it was his master, he would definitely be able to grab it.
That was why Yasmin left this world without regret.
But he realized that was not his role.
His role will only end here.
However, the innocent woman was satisfied.
He left with a satisfied smile.

I with my party immediately returned to the Meglovia Empire bringing victory after defeating Demon King Ozazil.
I finally breathed a sigh of relief after Albexus confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Leon's state of body.
At first I was worried that Leon would be okay after being used as a puppet body by the Demon King.
Thankfully, my worries were wrong.
Afterwards, Doctor Minerva immediately chose to go to his laboratory to complete his pending research work.
As for Albexus not wasting time then immediately treat the soldiers who were heavily injured due to the war against the demon nation.
There were still quite a number of demon nations left in the Ernoa Continent.
However, it was no longer a problem since Albert and Alice chose to intervene to do the cleaning.
I also wanted to help, but the people closest to me immediately scolded me and told me to just rest, so I obeyed.
This war was won by the human race.
However, casualties that fall from the human side can not be considered one eye.
A total of 101735 soldiers were killed, 10666 were seriously injured, and 35929 were lightly wounded.
This is actually a relatively small value compared to the overall number of soldiers, but of course each individual killed in the war is valuable not only for the families left behind, but also the empire.
We pay our last respects in a proper ceremony to deliver the departure of those who perished on the battlefield.
Compensation is given by the state to the families of war victims until the heir in the family is able to reach the age of at least 15 years.
I tried to overcome the post-war crisis with all my might.
But as Yasmin says, the real latent danger comes in the aftermath of the war.
There were protests everywhere about my persistence so that too many casualties fell on the battlefield which eventually led to rebellion, taking advantage of the times when the empire was weak in the post-war.
I couldn't hold back my anger because of them.
Do they think the demon nation is something that is easily defeated?
They avoided war by various means hiding their tails between their legs, but they still had the guts to criticize me who stood before them resolving the crisis.
Truly a bunch of hypocrites.
What makes me upset that I miscalculated.
The Tong Kong Empire and the Republic of Joumen still had a lot of free time to support the rebellion of the silly people.
Should I destroy their country so that it does not exist?
But as a symbol of peace in this world, of course I can't do it.
I will live as Yasmin wished, not only for Yasmin's sake, but everything back for my own sake.
As a symbol of the hero of this world, I will live happily.
I'll stand straight without a crack and won't let anyone stab me in the back.
As a symbol of world peace, I must continue my life well as the leader of mankind fulfilling everyone's expectations, but of course, the family comes first.

Somewhere in the monster forest territory.
Two giant astral beings met each other.
“Moreover what are you waiting for, Milanda? Let's go quickly. Our role in this world is over, it's time we go.”
One of the women among them smiled at the words of his man.
“It's true. Now the rest, we can only entrust the fate of this world to heroes and mankind.”
The woman's figure looked back.
Apparently a second astral giant came along.
“What do you think, Aries?”
But without saying anything, the man just smiled.
A moment later, the three figures disappeared as if they had not existed from the beginning.
***
Elsewhere, a large-bellied man with a disgusting smile monitored the state of affairs from the top of the hill.
“Don't you think this is over, hero!”
Ozazil is too stupid to rely on his strength alone.”
But different from me, the great Baal will use the human race you love to destroy you from within with betrayal.”
“You just wait for my gift.”
“My seed has spread everywhere more than you anticipated.”
“Hahahahahaha.”
The big-bellied man's eyes suddenly glowed red while smiling in a more disgusting manner.
