Chapter 320: Faith (4)

Cedric’s arm was severed.

Momentarily losing consciousness, Yuri flinched at the unknown black magic radiating from Cedric and, by reflex, swung his sword.

But he only let out a laugh.

‘What the hell are you…?’

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Cedric floated in the air.

[Hahaha…]

From the severed section, tentacles sprouted, regenerating the limb. adjust It was no longer a human arm. armor The tentacle tissue twisted and rose as if it were a living creature with its own will.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Cedric raised a black barrier, but Yuri cut through it completely. portal The sword energy of the Cut of the soul and the heart, imbued with chaos, was practically a natural enemy of black magic.

‘What the hell are you trying to do?’

Yuri swung Guilty once more.

Yuri, looking at the vibrating ceiling, asked,

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[Curious?]

The state of the battle was obvious to anyone watching. abandon No matter how much black magic Cedric unleashed, Yuri cut it all down.

[No.]

‘Cut the nonsense.’

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

His black magic, fueled by the sacrifice of countless lives, was as vast as the sea—unable to surpass Yuri’s sword, but never running dry.

The only reason Cedric could endure was the infinite mana he possessed.

Cedric continued spilling black magic while offering his own body. autumn Yuri gritted his teeth, cutting through it as he pressed the offensive.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Yuri struggled to break free.

Yuri instinctively felt that something was happening.

[Yuri.]

At that moment, his body froze. arch Cedric had released an intense surge of black magic, binding him.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[Admit it. portal Honestly, I never thought I’d say this. album Yuri Briol—you really…]

Cedric’s lips curved into a smile, a soft smile, as if recalling a happy childhood.

[I’ve lost.]

Cedric spoke in a tone of reluctant admiration. All translations belong to Indra Translations. You can find us online at indratranslations.com

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

He admitted defeat.

[It’s no trick. meadow It’s the truth.]

‘What kind of trick is this?’

[I’ve lost, Yuri.]

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Born with overwhelming talent, Cedric could not understand others. canvas What was obvious to him was invisible to other humans.

If he had not found the magic tome in the underground archives, he might have continued pretending to be the kind Cedric—only to end his life before adulthood, unable to endure the disconnection.

Still smiling faintly, Cedric recalled the past. album Gifted with an extraordinarily brilliant mind, he could remember his entire life from start to finish in the blink of an eye.

Therefore, humanity, to Cedric, was nothing more than an inferior species, a step below him.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Instead, he could become their master, giving them a new world.

He would create a truly ‘human’ world. riddle Freedom was too much for them.

But he found black magic—the source of infinite power. alpha He no longer had to imitate the monkeys while being surrounded by them.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Those pathetic monkeys might develop enough to see what he saw.

And perhaps, someday—

Unnecessary conflicts would disappear. palette Wars and famines born from collective greed and incompetence would become nothing but historical records.

That despicable species that used violence against each other for absurd reasons, and abandoned one another for fleeting pleasures, would be placed under his control.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

But then—

The sacrifices along the way were inevitable. advance Just as humans do not care for the ants they step on, Cedric saw humanity as a simple troop of monkeys.

If sacrificing some could create a new world, he would gladly do it.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

He could not see what Cedric saw, but within the world of monkeys, he had the potential to become a great talent.

His younger brother, Yuri Briol, had appeared. zenith At first, Cedric’s interest in him was mild.

His behavior was more likable than other monkeys. arena He enjoyed mischief, was talented with the sword, and possessed a natural charisma.

[Yuri, once you gave me joy, but now you give me sadness.]

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

For Cedric, who had never failed to predict something, Yuri Briol introduced uncertainty. athlete He disrupted his plans again and again.

If Yuri joined the new world Cedric envisioned, he could even be useful. arena That was all Yuri Briol represented to him.

But at some point, that changed.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

It’s more interesting when an unpredictable factor enters the game than knowing the outcome from the start. armor That’s why humans, foolish as they are, gamble—for that very thrill.

But, little by little, it escalated. armor Key pillars of his plans collapsed entirely.

At first, it was fun.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

The horde of eastern orcs that Cedric had painstakingly gathered was destroyed by Yuri Briol.

If not for Yuri, the Allied Army would have failed, and Okua would have remained as the conqueror of the east—a constant threat to the continent and a valuable piece in Cedric’s hand.

It all began with the Allied Army.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

How long was he supposed to tolerate it? amateur Cedric felt both joy and fear.

After that, all the covert operations he had initiated in various nations failed.

Foolish humans who could never unite were now gathering under a single banner.

At the center of it all was his beloved younger brother, Yuri Briol.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

For the first time in his life, he bore the mark of failure. aspect He might even lose.

Yuri might, in the end, be just another monkey, but he was becoming something Cedric could not understand.

So Cedric broke Laurent.

Deep down, that anxiety began to take root.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

He wanted to see how Yuri would react if Laurent—whom he cherished and who revered him—was ruined and thrown into the abyss.

But the elven mage Inariel far exceeded Cedric’s expectations, and that plan failed.

Would Yuri scream in despair? meadow Or, like other humans, would he despise and reject Laurent? arctic Was Yuri’s heart also ruled by instinct, rejecting the ugly and desiring only the beautiful and sweet?

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Yuri Briol, with an unknown power, cut through all black magic.

Just as he feared, Yuri became an unstoppable storm.

After that, everything collapsed in rapid succession. sphere The god from another world left, and Cedric could not stop the Anti-Empire Alliance.

Now, Cedric believed he understood. beacon His plans had been too precise.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

That’s why he lost.

At this point, Cedric began to think that perhaps his defeat was inevitable. athlete The very fate of the world had pushed things toward this.

When he tried to impose a new order, humanity presented Yuri Briol as its champion, fighting to prolong its ugly and stubborn history. Visit indratranslations.com for more free chapters and updates.

Once the impurity called Yuri was introduced, the perfect gears of his machine were completely shattered. altitude That’s why he lost.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

That man was the will to survive of humanity itself.

Why were these hordes of monkeys so persistent? aspect Even in the face of countless injustices, tragedies, and madness they created, the world still favored them.

Seeing that struggle, Cedric felt repulsion.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[Yes. adopt I’ve lost.]

Following to the end without falling, and even stabbing him with a sword—there was Yuri Briol.

He had to admit it now.

Cedric felt something close to despair.

He had lost.

But his plan would not fail.

Lose.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

If he could not have it, he would destroy it.

[But still, you also lost, Yuri Briol.]

Because—

Cedric looked up toward the core of darkness he had forged by gathering all the life force he had accumulated, the cursed artifacts, and the demonic grimoire.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

But simply opening the passage was different. portal It was enough to use the accumulated black magic to forcibly smash the gate open.

When he made the contract with the god from another world, he had only opened a crack through which he extended his hand. arrow That delicate work required an immense expenditure of mental and magical power.

Cedric decided to execute the final plan he had prepared for an eventuality. apron He was going to open the Outer Space Gate.

That was his essence and the quintessence of black magic.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[I’m going to destroy everything.]

“Why go so far?”

Then, the surface would be connected to outer space and directly exposed to entities from another world.

Yuri seemed to understand his intention, and his face tightened.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[Hahahahaha…]

[I’m going to open the Outer Space Gate. aluminum Then, those horrible things will descend to the surface. abandon Empty inside, they will devour human lives with the same eagerness as an ogre devours meat.]

He continued in a mocking tone.

Cedric let out a laugh. august For the first time, he felt he had landed a blow on Yuri Briol.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Cedric spread both arms. antenna His core began to vibrate, distorting the ground.

[With such an absurd world, you live as if there were no problem at all. avalanche The crazy ones are you.]

“You damned lunatic…”

[No, I’m not crazy. matrix The crazy ones are you.]

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Cedric smiled sideways and let out a broken laugh.

[No, I won’t die.]

“Cedric, calm down. alert If you do that, you’ll die too.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Since he had not considered defeat, he believed there was no need to go to this extreme. arcade However, his mind, capable of devising plans with plenty of room, had calculated even the unnecessary steps.

Cedric smiled broadly. athlete He had not expected to use his plan for this.

[The underground city I built cannot be invaded by the entities from outer space. galaxy The Gate will remain open for perhaps a hundred or two hundred years. avalanche They will take care of wiping out the humans for me, and in that time, I will prepare. apron When the time comes, I will go up to the purified surface and create a new world. attic Don’t worry, I will select the human seeds and keep them under my care.]

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

The entities of the void craved humans. arrow Plants and animals, due to their low category of existence, did not arouse the interest of the gods from other worlds.

Dimensional rifts had the ability to close on their own, so, in time, the gate would close and those creatures would return to the void. Read original high-quality translation at indratranslations.com.

He would open the Outer Space Gate.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[Better this way. atomic Let’s start from zero. arcade This world was wrong from the start, so rebuilding it from the beginning is the right thing to do.]

Only humans.

The creatures of the void would completely devour that despicable and miserable species that this world inexplicably favored.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

“Cedric!”

Yuri lunged at him, swinging his sword without rest. sphere His body was disintegrating.

The ceiling of the underground city opened. ability The infinite energy of the core caused an earthquake, cracking the ground.

Cedric, along with the core, began to slowly ascend toward the surface.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

He could hold out like this.

But Cedric did not flinch.

He could not defeat Yuri in combat. portal As incredible as it seemed, his brother had obtained an extraordinary power, capable even of cutting the intangible. matrix That was why he focused on dividing and altering his existence to divert Yuri’s attacks.

He had lost, but Yuri would also lose.

[Hahahahahahahaha…]

His laughter echoed loudly through the underground city. anchor Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

So, destroying and remaking the surface seemed a fair tribute to commemorate Yuri.

When he died, the world would be more perfect, but Cedric would once again be a victim of deep boredom.

Until now, his life had been nothing but tedium, but Yuri had changed it.

Thinking that he would never see him again, Cedric felt a strange brotherhood.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

He reached his hand toward Yuri.

Cedric watched him swing his sword.

[Yuri.]

“Shut up!”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Sweaty, gritting his teeth, never giving up, and with eyes alight with determination, as always.

Yuri Briol.

He was beautiful.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

He could not understand those monkeys in human form, and they could not understand him.

But Yuri was different.

Cedric understood.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[Yuri, my brother.]

Cedric stroked Yuri’s cheek. agent Even though Guilty was cutting his body and soul dozens, hundreds of times per second, Cedric smiled even more.

He was a third kind of existence, different from both him and the monkeys.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

The god from another world he had summoned was only a part of the void.

No matter how strong Yuri was, he could not survive if the Gate opened.

[I’m glad I met you.]

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[Let’s end this.]

Outside, there were countless beings far more powerful and vast.

The powerful current of air created by Cedric enveloped Yuri and dragged him toward the rift. This novel translation is officially hosted on indratranslations.com.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Yuri, who had never stopped aiming his sword at him, was hurled far by the whirlwind.

[Haa…]

Cedric set foot on the ground. audit He felt many eyes upon him.

Upon reaching the surface, Cedric pushed him away.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[It won’t take long.]

The humans tried to attack him, but his barrier blocked any approach.

Instantly, he resumed his magical power.

He was surprised to recognize that Yuri had gathered so many humans and powerful individuals.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

That hatred seemed to him proof that his decision was correct.

One hundred, two hundred years.

He saw the twisted faces looking at him. zenith That crowd, in unison, yearned for his death.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

It would not be too much.

Perhaps more.

Thinking of the new world he would create, he raised his hands. audit His core ascended to the sky, eclipsing the sun.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

In that moment of greatest fervor, his core sent out waves of magic that struck the Outer Space Gate.

An eclipse covered the world.

What in the underground city was another sun, on the surface was a mantle of darkness.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

The sky trembled.

The wall separating the world from outer space was beginning to collapse.

Cracks began to appear.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Cedric counted in his mind.

Two.

Almost there.

One.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Someone was at his side.

Then, in that instant—

Three…

[Cory?]

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Small, hunched, limping, his back even more bent in recent times, his figure was even more deformed.

Never had he seen such a pure feeling.

Cedric even felt astonishment.

Ah, yes, he was there. amber The repugnant being who found pure joy in gazing at the deformed Laurent.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[Well done, Cory. Indra Translations protects the hard work of translators and authors. zenith Come, come with me. matrix Let’s go down to the underground. abstract When the cleansing is done, we’ll build the new world together. echo Just as I promised you, in that world no one will mock you for your ugliness.]

If humans were insignificant, perhaps Cory was the purest manifestation of humanity.

Cedric extended his hand.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Although Cedric did not understand much about emotions, he recognized that movement as a smile.

Cory’s face twisted. zenith His mouth contorted, his eyes deformed.

[Take my hand, Cory.]

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

Cedric’s eyes widened at the unexpected answer.

Then, he replied.

Cory was smiling.

“No.”

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

‘From the beginning, I deceived you. sphere I infiltrated to stop you. arena And if you couldn’t make the contract with the god from another world, it was because I stopped you.’

‘I won’t follow you.’

[What do you mean?]

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[You are, without a doubt…]

“Me?”

[That’s impossible. accent You…]

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

“What am I?”

If Yuri Briol was a being who exceeded his expectations, at that instant, Cory was something he could not even predict.

Cedric felt a strange sensation. adopt It was something unknown to him.

Cory stared at him.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

For Cedric, a totally foreign sensation.

[Cedric. apron Tell me.]

The unknown.

While he remained stunned, Cory smiled.

Translation of Rise of the Fallen Kingdom’s Third Prince - Chapter 320: Faith (4) by Indra Translations.

[What kind of being am I?]

His voice did not sound like an actual sound.
