Shinka no Mi

Too dazzling a curtain, we're just dazed.

"Oh, are you finished...?"

It wouldn't be surprising if I muttered like that.

After all, all that struggle was over with magic.

I still had an unbelievable feeling --- it seemed like my murmur was still a flag.

"---You 're not expecting it."

!?

One word.

The voice, which was heard from nowhere, resounded throughout the room despite being quietly muttered, and further cracks ran through the surrounding floors and walls.

It's just a voice that physically affects your surroundings.

Surprised by such a situation, a figure appears at the top of the altar.

It's just...

"What, what... oh..."

When Al saw the presence that appeared on the altar, he murmured like a moan.

It was an inexplicable thing that various forces, such as purple and black, had taken on a human form...

It is in the form of a person, but it is never a person.

The same is true of the signs of power emanating from the presence in front of us, but what swirls in there... was too ominous.

It's like forcing anger and despair around the world into a human form... it's like that.

No eyes or mouth.

It was just that all the power became human... so overwhelming that it seemed to me.

While we were just overwhelmed, we kept worrying about the type of people in front of us.

"I was expecting you to show me how to deal with it... but there's nothing wrong with it. You were also the only dwarfs trapped by the laws of this world."

"Are you... a demon god...?"

That's what I'm asking, but I'm already convinced.

There was no doubt that the demon god had been defeated earlier.

But the presence in front of us right now is a sign worthy of being called a god.

I couldn't compare myself to the demon god I saw earlier.

Besides, I can't explain it in detail, but it was very similar to the signs of God that inspired me to come to this world.

... Could it be that the existence was fake?

"Demon god... huh. Don't you think it's a name that can see through their arrogance that you don't suspect that you are an absolute?"

Huh?

"Originally, I was the same god as them." However, when they sealed me, they called me a demon god and defined me as their subordinate existence. But that was the end of it. It is in this time that I will be the true God, and all else will perish. "

"I don't know what to do..."

I couldn't understand anything that the demon god was saying.

Besides, I didn't know what kind of quarrels I had with the gods in the past, or what kind of encounters I had with them.

But I don't want you to get us involved in that obsession.

"Don't you understand why? Of course I did. A dwarf like you can't possibly catch up with my thoughts. Just shut up and accept my decision."

"That was the case before... but you can't accept such a decision!"

Al!

After receiving the word of the demon god, Al waved his axe and swung it down forcefully.

[Shockwave]!

The slash smashed the ground in the room and headed straight to the demon god.

"... nonsense"

It's getting worse.

The slash disappeared before my eyes without touching the demon god.

"Well then... how about this?"

Then, Origa took Kunai out of her pocket and threw herself towards the demon god.

When Origa threw Kunai, it split into the number Origa-chan wanted and attacked the demon god.

"It's no use. God can't reach you."

However, just like in Al's time, Kunai disappeared before his eyes without even touching the demon god.

"This power... is the same as the one I felt from the magic circle when I came here..."

"It's unpleasant..."

Sarria and Lulunet murmured as they saw the power that had defeated Al and Origa's attack.

Indeed, you said that from the magic circle when you came to this place, you felt something like "nothingness" that denied everything... The underworld also said that that was the power of the demon god, and I'm sure that this is the true demon god.

"It seems that you are mistaken, but no matter how much you scratch your legs, your destiny to disappear will not be covered." It's not like the monsters you've been dealing with. There is no reason for you to be trapped in the mechanism of this world, and to be able to live by obeying the laws, but to beat the gods who produce those laws and mechanisms, right? "

"Ugh..."

Exactly the same.

The demon god stood so still that he wanted to say so.

Certainly, the existence that I had assumed to be the demon god before was also able to prevent our attack.

However, it could be seen that it exercised some kind of power, such as having another organism prevent it.

However, the demon god in front of me could not see that he had used any power.

Naturally, Al's attacks have disappeared.

The demon god didn't have to worry about us.

"In that sense, my gods possessed an unusual power... but it doesn't change that I am human." Some of them seemed to disrespectfully intend to turn their backs on me, but they disappeared naturally before my judgment. That's right... with your help "

Eh, me?

Until now, the demon god who had shown us what we were all talking about, suddenly turned his attention to me personally.

"It's useless to hide it. I know that you are the heresy that has transformed the power of my gods."

"Hah, hah..."

Indeed, Destra, one of the divine disciples, has changed from the power of absolutely killing the subject to the power of healing the subject. The divine disciple named Vitol, whom Oliga and the others fought, has not heard of the detailed ability, but because of me, it has changed to the same status as the surrounding stones.

When Gempel's abilities didn't produce my copy well for some reason, or when other copies were instructed to attack us, Gempel himself was dumbfounded by the copies he gave us.

However, that doesn't mean that your abilities have changed or disappeared.

Especially the last of the gods, Utis, who seemed to have plotted something and disappeared somewhere, never came back.

...... Oh? It's my fault after all.

Again, it's my fault the gods have lost their abilities!

Then, the demon god stood quietly from the altar and spread his arms.

"With my full resurrection, I have gained more power than the gods who sealed me. Yes, as the only God who rules the world. But you're the one I don't even understand."

God says I don't understand, but what about me?

"Behold! This power!" Everything in the world is in my hands. "

Between the arms spread by the demon gods, stars and universes compressed to miniature sizes were created, where stars exploded, galaxies were drunk, enlarged, and disappeared. After that, the universe quietly disappeared.

"I showed you the world from its creation to its end, so you can understand it."

Huh?

"In other words, I created and killed the world for you." Fufufu... for me, the universe, the life form, everything is nothing but a comfort. "

”No way... did you create it and kill it...?”

Al looked at the demon god like he was staring at something ridiculous.

The one who thought he was the previous demon god created a human in front of us and killed him.

But he created the world just to show off, and he killed it.

"Of course not? It's no longer worth my life to me." Spawn and kill as you please. It's just a toy. "

"Why... is that...?"

Sarria was shocked by the words of the merciless demon god.

Originally, Sarria, who grew up in a wild, weak and powerful world, should have well understood the importance of life, and I could not forgive the word of the demon god who denied it.

"Terrible? I say strange things." You still don't know what you're talking about? If you don't live on my whim right now... it's okay. More than that, I'm interested in you. "

When the demon god said that, he turned his face straight towards me.

I don't have eyes on my face, but I can clearly see that something that looks like a gaze is facing me.

"Although incarnate, I killed God to show him." You're just a human... I don't know why you can do that... I don't know...! "

It was a cry of fear and hatred.

Reacting to the cry, the sect trembled.

"I can't be beyond the gods and become the only one I can't be unaware of!"

"Grrrr!"

Everyone!

When the pressure grew stronger, Sarrias could not bear it, and knelt down on the spot.

"... I still do. Even though I'm doing my best to calm down, I hate you so much that you can stand up to my prestige."

Certainly, even if I was under pressure from the demon god, it didn't affect me in any way.

Because even though I feel that it is somehow releasing great power, I can't feel it on my skin.

Is this just because I'm dull or because I've evolved into something so monstrous that I can't even feel it... I don't think the latter is a secret.

Suddenly, the pressure released by the demon gods disappeared, and the Sarrias were relieved and breathed.

"Hah! Hah... hah...!"

"--But that's the end of it." I've seen all your power. "

Huh?

"It's useless to hide it. You fought with your whole body against my incarnation and won. Naturally, winning over my incarnation is wonderful in itself, but in the end, the method is due to magical power. At that stage, I saw the bottom of your power. It's not even an obstacle anymore."

"Um, uh..."

I don't know what to say to a demon god who keeps talking like he's drunk somewhere.

Because the fight against the incarnation that I thought was the demon god was more or less a battle against the mysterious life form created by Soitsu, and in the end, I was defeated by Seiichi Magic [Judgment].

In that sense, I was convinced that the demon god in front of me who was outside my recognition was safe, but that magic defeated the incarnation rather than the life form.

That magic activation wasn't really a full-body spirit, so... even though it was said to be the bottom of the power, it didn't come pinned.

Then, not only me, but also Sarria and the others seem to feel that way when they hear it. When they all look at each other's faces, they see the demon god with an indescribable expression on their faces.

However, the demon god suddenly began to gather mud around us again without noticing how we were!

Moreover, the number is the same as before, and it only fills the space in an instant.

"I-Is this... the same as before...?"

"If you really think it's the same, you can knock it down."

The mysterious creature called by the demon incarnation could be defeated by [Judgement], but the creature that appeared just now did not seem to be the same as the one that was defeated just now.

So I tried to activate [Judgement] again...

Huh?

For some reason, no magic was activated.

"This feeling..."

“I told you, didn't I? She said she saw the bottom. You can't use magic in this space anymore."

Yes, the discomfort I felt was the same as that I felt in Helen's homeland, the [Forest of Sealed Demons] of the Varsha Empire.

It was a space where magic could not be activated because it was sucked away by the surrounding trees, but this time it was different.

It seemed like the concept of magic and magic power itself had been removed... and transformed into such a space.

Because of that, no matter how much magic I tried to activate, I didn't react.

Now, what are you going to do in this situation where you can't use magic?

A demon god staring at us with pleasure, looking like a high-growth spectacle.

"S-Sincerely......"

Sarria looks anxious in such a situation.

Not only Sarya, but also Al and the others did not say anything, but I could see that they were feeling anxious.

That's why I'm seeing what I have to do.

I just like to laugh at everybody.

That's why I'll always get rid of situations that make Sarrias uneasy.

I was determined to do that, and at the same time, I came up with something.

And in order to execute that idea, I put my strength into the black that I had in my hand, and I swung a big swing---.

"If magic doesn't work, did you even think of it as physical?" However, I already knew that any attack would be in vain ─ ─ "

Shut up!

While blocking the word of the demon god, I swung my sword with all my strength (...)!

Until now, if I tried my best, the world would make such a noise.

But I don't have to worry about that right now.

After all, this is nothing in the world, it's a space created by a demon god.

I don't know what to do with such a space, whether it's broken or not!

Then, as soon as I started to shake my sword, the demon god world began to palin! I heard the sound of shattering and scattering.

But my assault isn't over yet.

As I continued to wield my sword, the feeling of slashing something apart came to my hands.

After you slash it open, it doesn't feel like something is coming to resist, and it shakes as it is.

"That's..."

When I finished shaking out my weapon, the demon god conveyed a stunned atmosphere.

Because... that single blow wiped out the mysterious creatures that filled the space.

But I didn't slash, I didn't slash.

However, the mysterious creatures disappeared once and for all the moment they swung their swords with all their might and slashed something in a place where nothing was supposed to happen.

I mean...

"Eh, eh...? Really disappeared...?"

"Why are you surprised!?"

I don't get it either.

For the time being, I tried to attack with all my strength, and if that doesn't work, I tried to think about it again, but this is the result.

I know this space is falling apart, but that was before I attacked... and I'm going to attack now! It was shattered at the stage of temperament.

That's why the space we're standing in now is not a stone room like when we first arrived, but a swirling world of unknown patterns and colors.

Moreover, if you look closely, even the mysterious space is torn asunder, and there is nothing to see.

That's why there seemed to be no concept in that black part... it seemed that in a real sense, [nothingness] was spreading.

"Well, anyway..."

Okay, I can defeat you! Yeah!

I don't know what I'm doing, but if it's over, it's all good!

The demon god shook his head when he was forced to convince himself.

"Stupid... that shouldn't have happened... what was that blow?" I slashed through space, time, concepts, everything...... and my world like this...... "

The demon god was shaking his body in an unbelievable state.

But the next moment, the demon god's body unleashed more overwhelming power than ever before.

Moreover, it was the power of [nothingness] that was put into the magic circle to come to this place.

The wave of "nothingness" emanating from the demon god's body resonates with the "nothingness" of the space I slashed earlier, and erodes this unexplained patterned space.

-You 're in danger.

In a strict atmosphere, the demon god told me so.

"I can't let you do what you want anymore." There must be no more than God. "

Just by saying so, when the surrounding space is distorted, "nothingness" dominates the space, and in other places, the space flashes like the universe, causing something like a supernova explosion to disappear, surrounding us and causing it everywhere.

Astonished by the power of the demon god, who is truly worthy of the word, the demon god went on not feeling the taunt he had before.

"Nevertheless, I will pay tribute to you for having frightened me once, and in the end I will use my power as a god to erase the existence itself."

While saying that, Demon God slowly pushed out his right arm and tried to grasp something.

"So... it's over. Die."

And the demon god completely gripped my right hand!

…………

... is that it?

We were very vigilant about what was going to happen, but there was no sign of anything happening.

We bowed our heads about it, but it was the same for the demon god.

"? Why? Why doesn't anything happen...?"

The demon god looked confused at the bottom of his heart, and although he held his hand many times, nothing happened.

"Hey, what the hell is going on!? Why can't you see it?!" Why can't you know that I am omniscient! "

--- Are you omniscient again?



Suddenly, voices echoed throughout the space.

However, I... no, we know that voice very well.

"... hey, this voice..."

It's the same voice that you heard when you defeated an alien named Gyeonggyeong!

Sarria is right, this voice was exactly the voice of the world that I often heard.

And now that I hear that voice, Al and the others look at me as if they've perceived something.

Wait! Don't look at me like that! I haven't done anything yet!

Look, it's not my fault, but it's possible that the demon god's deeds came out because they weren't good in the world.

Thank you for waiting, Seiichi-sama.

Yes, it's me!

I knew it! I just didn't want to believe it!

Then, the world continues to look really sorry.

"If it was true, I wanted to help you immediately... but even if the existence there were rotten, it would be God." It was quite troublesome.....}

"Who are you? Don't show your face and call out to me..."

When the demon god who doesn't know the world well turns his gaze to the sky unpleasantly, the world is different from my time, and he makes a cold voice everywhere.

Even though it's God, can't you recognize me? That's why God's name was so well caught up in it. "

"Shut up, I know you are the will of the world. But, what, that attitude! We created this world and all the other worlds. Think about your attitude toward the Creator!"

”No, this is the right attitude towards you. You're trying to destroy the world you've created. There is no intention on our part. You think I'm going to show respect to someone like that?

"Even in your world, can you think the same as an incompetent creature?" Or is it because there are incompetent creatures, that you have stained your mind? Everything in this world could not even exist without us. That is why I thank you for what you have been able to do, and accept your destiny to be silently erased by me. ”

”Hah... you're the one who still doesn't suspect that you are the absolute being? even though you're not the absolute one anymore....."

What?

The demon god told the world that he felt pity everywhere with frustration.

"... if it were true, I would have painfully destroyed it in front of the other gods... but I changed my mind." You can turn it off here. "

The demon god reached out his hand again and gripped it.

But......

It's useless.

"I-It won't go away!?"

The world did not seem to have been particularly influenced by anything, and replied plainly.

Didn't I tell you? You're not absolutely human anymore. ”

"What a foolish thing to say!? I am the supreme being and the only one who can rule the world!" Not only in this world, but in all its dimensions, we have sent our apostles, gathered negative forces from all space-time, all dimensions and all over the world, and finally resurrected as a being beyond the gods!? I am not absolute, etc... "

Hah... well, I'll leave this fool alone and explain it to Makoto-sama.

Huh? Ah, yes.

The world called out to me again, even though the demon god was trembling tragically. "I-Is it okay if I leave you alone...?"

As I said earlier, if it were true, I would have rushed to Makoto-sama earlier. However, I do not want to admit that the power of that being was unexpectedly strong, but because we were created from other gods, including that god, it was difficult to defy God. However, with the return of that person (...), it was resolved as well. "

Is that him?

Is there a world created by God that can defy Him?

The world will tell you, while everyone else, including me, blows their necks off.

Seiichi-san, please check your status

Huh?

I'm not sure, but I'll try to open the status for now.

I just don't think my status will change.

After all, my current status was on the move, and I was supposed to see a white screen with nothing written on it...

◆◇◆

[Tsubaki Seiichi]

Long time no see. Status.

I apologize for not being here for a long time.

And then, my status----they 're back.

◆◇◆

--The status is back.
