Heartwarming / Helck

Go To

  • Vermilio's words in Chapter 53.3. She not only confesses who she is to Helck, but also asks for him to return to the Empire, after spending most of the time trying to either get him out of the running or doubting him.
  • Edil saving Hyura in Chapter 63.3. Remember, he's supposed to be her enemy, but he made a conscious decision to fly her to safety.
  • Vermilio stopping Helck from killing Alicia, not because she thought that he would fall into an unstoppable rage, because she knew he wouldn't but she also knew any and all hope he had for the future would be gone. Then she finally declared the one thing he has been hoping to hear since entering the demon empire.
    Vermilio: Let's save the humans.
  • And when Helck was still hesitating about Vermilio's exclamation to save the humans due to impracticality, she just said, "It’s okay. You’re Not Alone. This time, I’m with you!"
  • Although Azudora is still fond of humans due to his interaction with his human hero friend named Uria from a long time ago, even he hesitated on saving humans because it was not only nearly impossible and hard to do, but he also had a duty to protect demons before humans as one of the Four Heavenly Kings. When he received Vermilio’s letter which states her intention to save the humans, however, he resolved to save the humans as well. This is because he realized that Vermilio became friends with Helck despite her previous anti-human sentiments in the past thanks to the bond they formed throughout the journey. That is why although it is more practical to destroy the humans instead, he vowed to save the humans. And he will succeed this time because he doesn’t want to feel the same regret twice and acquired an unique power in preparation.
  • When the Human King of Control offered to save the humans in exchange for Helck’s body and power, Helck refused. This was surprising because Helck in the past would have accepted the deal to sacrifice himself if he could save everyone else. But he learned throughout the journey that there were others who want Helck himself to be happy as well. So if he sacrifice himself, he would be betraying everyone’s wish and he can’t do that. And when Human King of Control asked if Helck was really okay with throwing away the chance to save, Helck referenced how Vermilio suggested to save the humans despite lots of uncertainties and risks involved. Helck felt saved by her words. So although Human King of Control’s words may be more logical, he would rather trust his friend’s words.
  • Chapter 105 has some heartwarming moments even if there are some foreboding moments at first. This is because as Rafaed says his farewell to Helck, he also warns Helck before guiding him back to the world. This is because Helck’s power is fear itself. This is because not only his power signifies him as one of the Will of the World’s Contacted, but also how Helck has the power to refuse the Will of the World. For people who are following the Will of the World, Helck is fearful because no one until now really managed to refute the Will of the World. For people who are not following the Will of the World, Helck is fearful because many can’t help be suspicious towards people who have been contacted by the Will of the World even if Helck managed to resist the temptation. This fact makes people so fearful and uncertain about Helck that many kinds of forces are going to target him. Even his former comrades are no exception to this and he will probably be forced to make a far more painful decision than death in the future. Rafaed is so cynical that he still doesn’t think that his effort to bring birth of the New World is a mistake given how his past actions to better humankind didn’t work due to humanity’s failings. Despite his cynical belief, however, he states how perhaps Helck might be able to win against despair. That is why he hopes that a peaceful world would exist by the time he reincarnates. And combined with the fact that Charami acknowledged Rafaed as her father despite the truth that they aren’t blood-related before the way back is closed allowed Fafaed to smile in his last moment.
  • The ending: The humans are being turned back, Cless is the new Human King, and Helck has set out on a new journey with Alicia to save others who may be contacted by the Will of the World. Before he departs from Vermilio, he thanks her for being his guiding light out of despairing darkness. That is why Helck promises that although many people may find Helck’s power dreadful due to him being one of the Will of the World’s Contacted, he would never betray, hurt, or sadden Vermilio no matter what happens from now on as he thinks very dearly of her. Vermilio returns his sentiment by saying how she trusts him no matter what kind of a person he is or even if everyone else in the world comes to doubt him. And although they may be shaking their hands to say farewell, for now, she hopes that she will meet him again in the future as her friend. So until they meet again, she will never forget about all the times both of them spent together.
