Chapter 68: Chapter 68: [Great Sin: Wrath] and Louis’s Curse Binding Legion
The Minister of the Seal’s Office was in chaos for a moment.
Olivia, under Beatrice’s amused yet exasperated gaze, had to be comforted for quite a while before she calmed down.
Through tears, Olivia repeatedly confirmed the news with Sister Wang before finally coming to her senses.
However, she quickly fell into even deeper distress.
The sapphire dragon matter had been dealt with neatly; she should have been happy.
Even if it was another country that handled it, as long as Sister Wang was fine, it was okay.
But, but...
What really made her angry was that she was the last to know about this!
Clearly, it’s a trio’s symphony, yet I don’t get a name?
This was just utterly awful.
Dejected, Olivia sniffled her adorable little nose and returned to her room.
Whatever, I won’t think about it anymore.
Olivia gave up, flopping down onto the bed.

Meanwhile, in Louis’s bedroom.
With a somewhat tense expression, Louis opened the future diary.
Earlier, when he jotted down notes in advance, he discovered that the future diary hadn’t undergone any changes.
The text recorded in the original diary hadn’t transferred to the future diary.
The contents of the future diary hadn’t refreshed either.
This indicated that the diary didn’t update in real time but instead refreshed at the completion of a stage, much like finishing a game level before updating its contents.
The essence of the sapphire dragon disaster, at first glance, seemed to involve the sapphire dragon driving monsters down the mountain, causing magical chaos.
Upon further investigation, it was about two dragons preventing Rudelson and his kind from desecrating the king’s remains.
Yet the underlying cause was that the two dragons hadn’t managed to return the king and his personal guards’ remains to the dragon tombs.
Until this issue was resolved, the dragon disaster couldn’t be considered entirely over.
Sure enough, upon returning this time, he saw the future diary glowing with a faint red light.
When he opened the diary, he found the original diary’s content had been replicated onto the future diary.
He first browsed through the contents about the sapphire dragon disaster.
Sure enough, the disaster of the future dragon had vanished.
He smiled contentedly.
He swiftly flipped through to the last few pages of the diary.
He couldn’t believe it, but this fate of the guillotine had indeed ended!
"...At this moment, the Imperial Capital was a sea of laughter. I had made an indelible contribution to this because the Curse Binding Legion under my command destroyed every invading enemy."
"Gazing at Beatrice and Olivia, who had transformed into cursed spirits following me, I made a decision."
"I’m going to set the world ablaze with war until all living beings are exterminated completely."
Smack!
Louis immediately closed the diary.
He took a deep breath and opened the diary again.
Smack!
He closed it once more.
Louis: ٩(º﹃º٩)
Too much!
Where did this teenage angst come from?
Good news: I finally don’t have to face the guillotine.
Bad news: I’m going to send the whole world to the guillotine!
Feeling flabbergasted and at a loss for words, he could only mutter "6" in the end.
What is the Curse Binding Legion?
Why did Beatrice and Olivia still die?
Why did he want to burn the world with war?
Louis went through the diary once more, finally understanding what had happened.
In the new timeline, Beatrice successfully ascended to become the Empress.
And Louis, as a prince, became one of the highest-ranking members of the empire, completely freeing himself from the White Tower Experimenter’s covetous gaze.
With the help of challenging his own limits and a little bit of the sin of Greed, he successfully advanced to legendary status in the year 14458.
Afterward, he began taking command of the armies, and the two worked together to tackle difficulties, rejuvenating the stale empire with new vigor.
And all this transformation originated from the "Tunisia Destruction Day."
In the year 14468 of the Star Calendar, an unprecedented disaster erupted in the Tunisian Republic.
This country, which believed in the God of Glory and Justice and was primarily human, had in recent years fallen into crisis due to its declining national strength.
To the east of Tunisia lay the increasingly powerful Ense Empire.
To the northwest, there was the Great Dragon Coast, home to countless dragons, with many half-dragon species considering Long Lake as a holy place for growth and breeding, backed by the massive Dragon Empire.
And to the northwest, there was the Giant Demon Tribe, expanding its territory with abandon.
Further northwest across the Giant Demon Tribe lay the prosperous and thriving merchant lands of the Am Empire.
Heaven is too distant, but strong nations are too near.
This old empire, once representing human glory, was now teetering on the brink, under the invasion of the Giant Demon Tribe.
That year, a special giant demon was born within the Giant Demon Tribe.
This powerful demon quickly dominated the entire tribe and advanced eastward, frequently harassing the Tunisian Republic.
In no time, the already troubled Tunisian Republic was crumbling like a tall building about to collapse.
The Am Empire seized the opportunity to absorb a great number of Tunisian tycoons and high-ranking officials attempting to flee, taking away a huge amount of capital.
Ultimately, beset by both internal and external troubles, Tunisia fell into war, was overrun by the Giant Demon Tribe, leading to the birth of the Giant Demon Empire.
The following year, the Giant Demon Empire continued advancing eastward, and encountered the first legion that Louis had just formed.
Built with modern concepts, the first legion virtually slaughtered the invaders with unstoppable force and pushed all the way to the outskirts of the Giant Demon Empire’s capital.
——Until he encountered the wielder of "The Great Sin of Wrath," the King of Giant Demons’ Wraith.
Their war leveled the battlefield to the ground.
Beatrice, along with the Knight Order, was clearing out the giant demons, trying to rush back to his aid.
Olivia’s Mage Legion had been casting spells to devastate the field since the beginning and was continuously providing pressure from the rear.
Yet just as they were about to snatch victory, an unexpected turn of events occurred.
The "Rudelson" organization conducted a grand ritual on the battlefield, transforming the corpses of both giants and humans into the Undead Legion.
The demigod succubus from "Love God’s Dark Side" joined forces with the wraith of Wrath to attack Louis.
The sleeping emperor awoke at a critical moment, killing the demigod and the wraith of Wrath from Love God’s Dark Side, and then disappeared without a trace.
Beatrice and Olivia were besieged and killed by an unidentified Legendary Squad.
The Kulin Sword Saint managed to kill a legend alone, but exhausted all his strength and died.
The legendary Jino traded his life for three, heavily injuring two other legends, and laughed as he was beheaded.
In the end, he consumed the wraith, evolving into the King of Wrath and Greed.
Using Rudelson’s technology, he transformed all the corpses on the battlefield into his loyal dogs.
This is the origin of the Curse Binding Legion.
——A destructive force caught between life and death, made from Louis’s curse.
...
Louis pinched his forehead.
The good news is that in the future, he managed to create a semblance of family happiness.
——Though it was a cursed spirit version of family happiness.
This was a hell of a joke.
Louis longed for some heavenly comfort.
"It’s okay, there’s still plenty of time, and each time I’m surpassing my limits. I just need a little more time."
Louis successfully convinced himself.
He turned straight to the final page.
"I, Louis, can continuously break through limits, all thanks to my exceptional talent... Future diary, give me a boost!"
The next moment, he burst into laughter.
"What nonsense with Wrath! Just wait, your genius grandpa here will make you kneel!"
"Love God’s Dark Side? I’ll find a chance to give you a clown mask!"
"And Rudelson! Do you think you can kill me?"
