Ascension of the Dark Seraph - Chapter 21: Internal Battle

The Empire's forces retreated in desperation—trampled by faceless horrors bringing darkness and death to these once beautiful lands.Only the most courageous stood in defiance, forming a last defence to buy the people time to flee—fighting until the final embers of hope burned out.A man stands with a silver sword, like a beacon of hope to those around him. He roared with all his might drawing his blade against the overwhelming enemy!“You face Lancelot, Sword of the Empire! ”These horrors tested the Lord's grit and loyalty in the final moments.“Should my blade break, I will use my body!”The knights had fallen, broken swords for their tombstones, and lords fled, betraying the Empire to survive.“If my body breaks, I'll use my Soul!”Lancelot, the sword of the Empire, fought alone.All hope seemed lost.“And if my Soul fails...”What could a single man and his army do?He fights against the dark tide, blade in hand, heart on sleeve.“I will sell myself to the devil for revenge!”But he was too weak, too fragile.The last Lord of humanity stood against the enemy.Lancelot was a master of the sword, a mortal, neither a God nor a Saint.Miracles were beyond his reach.Now only a broken man impaled on his own destroyed throne.His blade shattered—now, like rose petals, it was scattered across the charred ground.Lancelot's soul was fated for the abyss as the light faded from his eyes.His last ounce of resistance used staring at the man who betrayed the Empire.Now with only the desire to kill, crush and seek revenge smouldering inside him.Now unwilling to die and desperate to fight once again.He desired to fight for the people who supported him.Lancelot refused to surrender, to fall like this.As quietly in the abyss, a voice whispered to him.It tried to entice the Lord, ignite his desire to win and fight again.“If given a second chance, to relive your life with a different choice... Would you Accept?”Blood gathered in his throat, forcing him to reply in his mind.A frail and broken voice'There is no reason to ask, of course!'“No matter the cost?”'Even if I were to lose everything...''If my people can live on. I would sacrifice everything I have!'“You will no longer be the same, a monster, twisted and vicious.”“Will you still accept?”The Lord's heart ached, taking great pride in his humanity.To lose that caused his mind to falter.Finally, out of power, unable to speak or reply with a trembling arm.Lancelot reached out.Towards the raspy voice.Towards the abyss.Towards a new future.[So you would accept after all...]'I must accept.''I must stand tall.''I must not break.''Because...''I am the Lord of humanity![Nay, you are the king of demons]

【Background fiction】
[abo theme, A has no pendant]
Flirting without knowing pure love alpha × gentle and kind omega
Jiang Yuchu × Xia Yirou
Summary of the emotional line: Jiang Zhi flirted with Xia in the early stage, and Xia flirted with Jiang in the later stage.
(probably longer period of ambiguity)
Business line summary: Gradually develop, but with golden fingers, the development is generally smooth.
————————————————————————
When he woke up, Jiang Yuchu was shocked to find that she had passed through
That’s fine
The level of economic development here is lagging behind, decades away from the level of economic development in the world she lived in. (The background is completely fictitious, everything serves the plot)
Not only that,
The people here are divided into six genders: male, female × alpha, omega, beta.
This is also acceptable
Who can tell her why she dresses like a scumbag
The original body has a bad personality, does not do a proper job, spends a lot of money, and abuses after drinking…
The ex-wife hates her, the daughter is afraid of her, and she was kicked out of the house by her parents (originally made by herself)
Unbearable!
Really: the beginning is the “peak”!
See how the “scumbag” reversed the market and reached the pinnacle of life, with a bumper harvest in career and love
The heroine has golden fingers and brings good luck.
—————————————————————
Before we were together: Xiaoxia didn’t want to care about Xiaojiang
Xiaoxia: “Don’t touch me”
“leave me alone”
“I do not want”

After being together:
Xiaoxia: “Good morning kiss~”
“Good night kiss~”
“Farewell Kiss~”
—————————————————————————————————
Xia Yirou: One day in the future, will you suddenly leave me?
Jiang Yuchu: Fool~ There will be no such day. Wherever you are, I will be there.
Home is where you are
—————————————————————————————————
Xia Yirou: It’s you who made me believe that there is really love in this world.
Jiang Yuchu: Even if there are thousands of mountains and rivers, I will come to you
I will go against my nature, against my instincts, and love you forever – “The Selfish Gene” book review

! Please correct me a lot, thanks a lot!

- Description from novelbuddy

Sean: Hello, I look up to you like a torrent of river water, uh, can I shake your hand?

One day, he shook hands with Sean suspiciously.

Sean turned around and laughed wildly in his heart: Hehe, the top knight talent is in hand.

Knight fan group 835732045, if you are interested, you can add it.

A story about a history teacher gaming-addict with familial trauma, and a peculiar woman seemingly stuck out of time and beyond out of touch.The two have been thrust into the weird and whimsical world of Altros, a planet with divides born of very real superhuman strength cursory of an odd ranking system, and, naturally, species differences.Not exactly the best of news for our resident Scottish history teacher whose ears have changed into fox ones alongside his nine new fluffy tails.First though, Darren, or Lone, or whatever else the weird system claims he's called, has to figure out how to live with his new companion Sofia, for seemingly forever while also just barely managing to survive being stranded on a monster-infested island with a self-proclaimed former-immortal who can see despite being blind, can freely teleport, and who also, of course, seems prone to experience bouts of extreme depression.Not an ideal situation when he himself hasn't been in a great headspace for over a decade now. But hey, at least there's an incredibly expansive litRPG system to keep the both of them entertained, right? That'll fight off the fear of death, surely.
