Chapter 395 - Forgetting Your Smile

Two weeks later, Liebe was in the Faust Estate beneath the estate in the devil binding chamber as he connected with Archeos, Lucifer, Chronos, and Malvoth.

Lucifer said, "Faust, have you made your choice?"

Liebe said, "I have. And I have made peace with the new harsh reality."

Lucifer said, "Is that so? Alright then."

Liebe said, "I, Liebe Faust, hereby create a binding contract that shall from this point onward alter the course of reality."

Lucifer said, "As of now, new history shall be written. Do you accept this new contract? And hereby a new reality shall exist. Faust, do you accept?"

Arteos screamed, "Faust, stop!" As he begged Liebe in tears, saying, "Faust, stop! This new reality cannot be. If this comes to pass, Freyja won't be. I won't be able to live with myself. The blazing dawn won't arrive without Freyja to witness the light. The world can't change without Freyja's light. The Seraphim can't awaken to the moonlight. Faust, please, I'm begging you, don't do this!"

Liebe said, "I have decided."

Meanwhile, in Black Rose HQ, as Lilith was in her office, Arteos said in tears, "Older Faust! Older Faust!"

Lilith said, "What is it, Arteos? Can't you see I'm busy at the moment?"

Arteos said, "Thank God, Faust, do something! Reality will change!"

Lilith said, "What happened, you baby?"

Arteos said, "Little Faust—he is about to do it. He will alter reality. Please do something, Mother Faust. He will change reality. Please stop him. Freyja won't be able to see the dawn. Please stop him, Mother Faust. I'm begging you. Please just stop it from happening. If this happens, Faust won't be human anymore."

Lilith said, "What?"

Arteos said, "Little Faust will change reality. He will push away Alysa."

Lilith said, "Void Magic: Black Gate!" As she goes away.

Meanwhile, in the underground chamber:

Liebe said, "I accept."

Arteos said, "No, little Faust! What have you gone and done? Please stop! This new reality is worse!"

Lucifer said, "We, the rulers of a forgotten era, shall rise once more as we cast the spell."

Liebe said, "Dark Magic: Black Contract Combo Spell—Absolute Dark Magic: Dark Baptism!" As a shockwave was scattered throughout the world.

As Lilith appeared from her gate in the chamber, she collapsed.

Lilith said, "My head... what the hell?" As Liebe's head was also hurting.

Meanwhile, in Lichita's house, Licht collapsed.

Mia said, "Sir, what happened?"

Licht said, "My head... what the hell happened? I'm seeing visions of my past." As Mia and Lichita were also in pain, theirs being minimal.

In Eldoria, Eosian said, "Aile, Noir, what the hell is this? Why the hell is my head hurting so much?"

In the Empire, Oriar said, "What is happening? Why is my head hurting?" As Eve and Sedina said, "What's wrong, Father? Do you need your medication?"

In Black Rose HQ, everyone one after another was collapsing.

Eldrie said, "Lara, do something!"

Lara said, "I can't do anything. My head—"

Stal said, "Is this some kind of attack?"

Nora said, "No, I don't sense any new presence."

In the hospital, Isurugi said, "Fate, why the hell is happening?"

Fate said, "Isurugi, I don't understand. What is this pain?"

In Alysa's room, Alysa collapsed as she fell from her bed in pain.

Mai said, "My lady, what's wrong? What happened? Are you alright?" As she sent a maid to get the doctor.

All Alysa could think was, Liebe... Liebe... why... why am I forgetting your smile?

In about 30 minutes, the pain disappeared.

Liebe said, "What was that?"

Lucifer said, "The forbidden spell is now active. The contract is made. Now, in 72 hours from now at midnight, all shall change. The new history will be reality. But if you perish before midnight, the spell cannot be cast. Remember that, Faust. Now you may enjoy your last 72 hours with her. The pain was their minds adapting to the new reality. Those closer to the individual shall witness the most pain."

Lilith said, "Liebe, what did you do?"

Liebe said, "What I said I would do."

As Arteos's voice could be heard in Liebe and Lilith's mind, a cold voice in despair saying, "I have failed Freyja once more. I couldn't do anything to help Freyja."

Lilith said, "I think I should be going."

Liebe said, "Yeah. I have to go. I don't have much time to see her anymore. My last 3 days with her. And not to mention, the final round is in 48 hours."
