If time could turn back by a single second, Stein would have absolutely slapped himself hard across the face!
Foolish! Utterly and completely foolish!
But there was no medicine for regret in this world.
He had grossly overestimated his own strength and fatally underestimated the destructive power of a Radiant Holy Artifact against a Demon.
Stein looked back on his life. The first half was spent on the edge of war and death, struggling desperately to survive like a mere ant.
In the second half, he acquired a Void Divine Artifact granted to him by a Demon and advanced step-by-step to the Seven-star Military Rank. But for the sake of his master's plan, he could only swallow his pride and dared not reveal too much of his power.
He had finally gotten his chance for Demon Ascension and had wanted to kill an Empire's Chosen One. He would use the act to display his Mighty Power and strength before Mortals and Raider Knights, satisfying his own desires.
