Armed Summoners - Black Spears and the Brave Men of the Other World

Episode Two Thousand Five Hundred Seventy One: What Brings Despair (3)

"No matter how mighty Naria is, if she is a Spirit, I will have a winning eye."

Mayura told as the circle of light restrained Walg's body, which had become transparent. Naria's power is immense. Mayura and Mayuri would be unrivaled opponents where they joined forces. That is an unshakeable fact, and there is nothing more to admit. And I'm not even willing to deny it. But the fact that the Spirit has the same power as Naria is also an impossible fact.

A Spirit is a Divine Spirit. But power is not the same. We have to be far weaker than the God who is the source of the Spirit. If it were the same, Naria would be just as absolutely invincible if she produced a large number of spirits. You should be able to outsmart even the Demon King and even conquer a million worlds. But Naria did not take such means. Because we understand the limits of the power of the Spirit, and the more the number of Spirits increases, the less that power is, and also the more drained it is itself.

It's a big deal, even if it just produces eight pillar spirits. Normally, if that number of Spirits were produced, they would be too drained and it would be difficult to maintain power, but the power of the Spirit of the Eight Pillars is uniform, and Naria's power remains full. It's unthinkable, but for five hundred years now, as the shadow ruler of the Empire, I suppose Naria has converted her faith in the historical emperor into a power from scratch, perhaps without any creation to that extent.

"Not yet, never ending"

Walg solved the complete transparency and appeared a clear body in the circle of light. The restraints caused by the circle of light become tight and robust over time. A circle that was unfolding further around the perimeter continued to participate in Walg's restraints, not only on the torso, but also on the hands, feet, neck and wings, all of which were beginning to be bound by the circle of light. Walg was moving in there, but Mayura didn't even look evil.

Walg certainly has the power that Naria's Spirit deserves, but he can't do anything more than be restrained by Mayura's circle. This cloud sea heaven and earth is the realm of Walg, but inside the circle of light is the realm of Mayura.

"It's over, Walg. You and your dependency bills, that's it. It's over. That's despair. No further."

"I am Walg, the spirit star. My power, not to this extent!

Walg screamed and tried to spread his wings. You tried to unleash your powers and break the circle of Mayura, but it all ends in vain. Mayura poured a chilling knob and made sure to cover her right fist with her left palm.

"Right. Then finish before you reveal all your powers."

"What... stupid!

Walg was upset and did not hide the wolf because all the circles of light that were unfolding in this void enveloped Walg and instantly converged. It converges on a single point with Walg's clear body and is no longer even a circular ring. Whatever the power of God that constituted the flesh of the Spirit, it is taken into the circle of light, into the realm of Mayura.

"This is happening..."

"It can't be... but were you going to?

Mayura told him toward the terminal demon he heard in his brain. At the end of his gaze, in the narrow void of the Cloud Sea, there was no longer even remnants of the circle of light. A void of nothing is there. The Spirit of Mayura, named the Spirit Celestial Star Walg, no longer disappeared without a trace and was converted into the power of Mayura.

Only the power of the Demon King, represented by the Black Spear, can destroy God. The struggle of the gods becomes barren because no matter how much the difference in power, there can be no clear victory or defeat: the death of the loser, and as much can be eaten down, and therefore the gods hate useless and pointless strife. As much as it develops from a feud between conflicting believers into a feud of gods, there is basically no one for gods to take the initiative and contend with each other. And the wars of the gods, which developed out of the strife of those believers, were not clearly settled. We can't destroy a hostile God, so we just have to keep fighting until the faithful are exhausted. In other words, if the faithful did not give up, the struggle could continue indefinitely, and there were numerous worlds where history was spun by such godly strife.

Except for the Spirit, however.

The Spirit, though Divine Spirit, is not God Himself.

It is not a genus of God. Therefore, it could be destroyed with the power of God, and anything but God, could be destroyed. That's why I'm doing something about it, but if this were to happen, if the eight-pillar god who gave Naria to the eight towers had been waiting, there wouldn't have been a hitter here. One pillar at a time, I don't want Setuna to destroy me. but it wouldn't be a naria that would give me such an opportunity, and it's an unquestionable fact that there was nothing I could do about it.

Most importantly, the absolutely invincible formation of the octopolar grand light formation worked only because Naria's own Spirit had built it, and even where the gods unrelated to Naria were seated in the eight towers, what could be built was a powerful and incomparable junction, something of a completely different nature from the octopolar grand light formation. In that case, it might not even have been necessary to distribute the force among the eight towers, as Naria would not gain absolute power either by the octopolar great light formation.

I can assure you that if you deal with Naria, who has become an absolute being according to the Octopolar Great Light Formation, or with the Gods of the Nine Pillars, including Naria, at the same time, the latter is far more prolific. Either way, if we destroy Naria, it's our victory. All you have to do is seal off the gods and destroy only Naria. If that's the case, it should be possible even with the existing force.

"That's what I have."

Mayura continues in secrecy as the remnants of Walg, which no longer end up as part of her own power and vanished even consciousness, are subdivided into endless subdivisions.

"That's what despair is all about"

Eventually, even Walg's remnants disappeared and lost, and Mayura felt overflowing with power. And I gave that power to my other self.

"You bet, Setsuna. A peek into the abyss of despair. You'll see. Despair puts a face out of nowhere and sticks an untouchable end to it. Nothing beyond that."

Unknown long night.

It's the same dark darkness that lasts endlessly.

"Nothing makes me desperate."

If the light could have been found beyond that, it would not have been despair. Despair is not so cheap. That's why Setuna, then, rambled the power of the black spear. I lost what was equal to everything to him, so I can say it's a natural conclusion, and no one can blame him then, etc. If Mayuri hadn't done anything, if it hadn't been for Lamulin, this world would undoubtedly have perished.

Most importantly, it is unclear whether Setuna, who destroyed the world, could not have tried to destroy Naria with its power, and whether Naria could have fought enough to destroy Iles Valle, as she maintained the octopolar Great Light Formation. Naria herself would have rampaged him because even with the octopolar Great Light Formation, Setsuna would have had herself to endure even if she had freed all her powers as guardian of the Black Spear, Demon King's Wand.

After all, what worked so well is something you don't know unless you actually try it.

I mean, Naria was on the bet, too.

It's a bad bet of minutes, but I guess I decided it was much better than waiting for the opportunity for the resurrection of the Holy Emperor, which I don't even know might be next. The decision itself is not something you don't know.

Especially the imperial gods, starting with Naria, have been imprisoned in this world for more than five hundred years.

It's a short time for the gods, but an extremely long time for one who originally believes in the gods. It hurts to imagine how much the absence of the gods affects those numerous worlds.

It is with the thought of one who believes in ourselves that the gods grieve for their return to the world where they are meant to be. That is everything and nothing more or less.

God is the prayer of one.

Therefore think of one man, and act on him from time to time.

As a result, it's not what the other world knows.
