"I've lost a precious friend."

Immediately, my voice spread throughout the continent. Perhaps everyone was looking up at the giant Goddess's Mirror in each area. It was predictable without having to check it with the telescope.

The timing was a little too sudden, and the speech that started much earlier than the initially scheduled time made many people puzzled. The staff surrounding me couldn't hide their disconcerted faces.

Light Kiyoung, who had enough divinity to make the expression holy, too little to describe him, could be seen in their eyes.

I was worried that it might look shabby for a moment, but the light that seemed to bear all the pain in the world was showing off a visual that suited the place without needing any other preparation.

'I guess it's better that I didn't pretend that I'm sick. It's natural.'

I was feeling absolutely determined, and my eyes were saying that I would never fall.

I thought no one wouldn't know that the day of prophecy, the day of the end, was about to begin.

I slowly looked around with the telescope, and I saw crowds gathering. Everyone looked at the sky silently, preparing for the prophesized day.

After hesitating a bit, I slowly continued. "We... We have lost our precious ones."

"..."

"Perhaps many of you are like me. I think everyone living on this continent has experienced losing a loved one. I think you've lost your precious ones to demon worshipers, demon summoners, demon legions, their servants, to war, to pain to hatred and anger."

"..."

"We survived. On the continent that our companions, our friends, and our lovers have kept safe, we survived thanks to the blood and sacrifice they gave. Under the trees, they have rooted in, under the skies, they have guarded."

"..."

"We are not the only ones who have developed the present continent. The heroes who lived and breathed in the painful history, the warriors we hear about in the adventurer's guild, the people who live the hard life day by day, and the many who want to fight to protect this continent are the heroes of the present continent."

"..."

"The land we stand on is our history and our hometown. There is no difference between the continental people or the foreigners or different races. Our dear ones shed blood for our future and sacrificed themselves to get us to this point. They said goodbye smiling."

"..."

"It was thanks to their sacrifice. We got to this moment because they were with us. They made us one. It is the people who are not here now that have united us, the Republic and the State, the United Kingdom and the Federation, the neutral nations and the different races, who thought of each other as enemies."

I saw some who began nodding slowly. Soldiers from the Republic and the State were looking at each other. Those who called each other enemies just a few years ago patted each other on the shoulders with slightly awkward faces. That was a good thing.

"It was thanks to their sacrifice. Because of their sacrifice, we can now prepare for battle against mighty enemies for the Day of Prophecy. They made us stronger. We suffered a lot from their death and sacrifice, but as a result, they made us more powerful."

Those who had ever lost a colleague nodded. On the battlefield where only gray was visible, they began to remember their former companions.

A priest who sacrificed himself for a party, a warrior who faced enemies to give his colleagues time to flee from the dungeon, or a swordsman who was hit with an arrow to protect his comrade's back...
