Moreover, there were also a tremendous number of heroes related to fire that formed the foundation of the empire.

Therefore, he started searching for the most overwhelming beings.

“I thought it would be easy to find the Destroyer.”

Karriel murmured as he frowned.

As a being with the word “destruction” in its name, and with the epithet of “Destroyer,” he thought it would be easy to find.

However, there was no existence named the Destroyer.

“If you’re going to reveal it, reveal everything, you petty god.”

Karriel cursed the god while he let out a deep sigh.

In the end, he gave up on finding the Destroyer and began searching for gods related to fire.
Surprisingly, he was able to find clues to other beings much faster than he had anticipated.

The creature that swallowed the sun, Skoll.

The gatekeeper of hell, Gareum, also known as the Hellhound.

The fragments of the Lord of Fire Spirits, Ignis or Selaime.

However, the problem was still that it was difficult to obtain information on other beings.

Skoll, who was rejected by those who served the sun god.

Gareum, the gatekeeper of hell who disappeared due to the war of black magic.

Although the fragments of the Lord of Fire Spirits were available, both beings had disappeared from records after the ancient era.

“Well, I guess that’s that.”

The author of the gods couldn’t just let him easily overcome the Flame Disease.

Kariel scratched his head and turned the pages with an irritated expression.

Then, in the last book of the fire-related myths, he found a name.

“The Lord of Muspell.”

A giant of fire that ended the faraway mythological era and was the king of Muspell.

An existence that was feared even in the empire that worshipped fire.

However, since he was one of the key figures that ended the mythological era, he was always the final presence to decorate the history books related to the mythological era.

“An existence that can destroy even the world of gods…”

Thinking of the god who had humiliated him, Karriel wished for even a momentary use of Surt’s power while he searched for information related to Surt.

It was then, amidst the numerous titles that referred to him, that he saw small letters written:

“The Destroyer.”

“Huh?”

Karriel looked at the book again, thinking he had read it wrong.

According to the book, there were those who called Surt the Destroyer among those who survived the mythological era.

“Is Surt really the Destroyer?”

Karriel murmured in confusion.

“Is it true?”

Carriel stood up abruptly, looking incredulous.

“The imperial treasure warehouse!”

The thought flashed through his mind and his eyes widened.

As luck would have it, one of Surt’s relics was stored in the imperial palace.

It was cursed and its authenticity was questionable, but he had nothing to lose.

“Let’s give it a try.”

Kariel muttered to herself, a broad smile spreading across her face.

But then, he suddenly frowned and looked up.

Relics of mythical beings were typically lost or sealed away in hard-to-find places.

And yet, the one relic of Surt happened to be stored in the imperial treasure warehouse.

But would it really help him recover from his illness?

The feeling of everything, from his reward as a “contractor” to Surt himself, being connected, made Kariel’s expression distort.

“This bastard… Did he plan this?”

He muttered to himself, looking up at the sky and the god who was supposedly watching over him.

But there was no answer.

Sensing that he was being played until the very end, Kariel couldn’t get out of bed for a while.
