The Executed Sage Reincarnates as a Lich and Begins a War of Aggression
Episode 242: Sage Flashes Measures
"This can't happen inherently. Because the will of the world is activated in some way before the swelling of power is aggravated. It would be some kind of glitch not to."
"... I guess it's because I've overshadowed my destiny so many times"
"You probably are. The distortion you continue to accumulate with your resistance seems to have finally exploded"
I'm sure the Great Spirit's guess is not wrong.
The will of the world is, in principle, irreversible.
If targeted, even superior presence such as the defense mechanism is obliterated.
The only exception was me benefiting from the valley of the dead.
Think of it. After I became the Demon King, there was all kinds of commotion.
Each time I've solved it with force moves, but I guess there was a build-up of glitches under the water.
This time, it finally appeared on the surface.
"The Savior of the Void will continue to destroy the Demon King's Army. Sooner or later they'll come after you."
"I guess so."
I acknowledge the words of the Great Spirit.
It was generally the same opinion.
A savior of a fierce fictional statue, but now he stays just to carry out a massacre on the border.
This would be because people's consciousness is geared towards the nearest Demon King army.
Everyone wanted to eliminate familiar problems.
So instead of targeting me directly, it hits me in turn because of the danger right next door.
But the more people will carry their expectations from now on, the more damage should be done.
If the activity and strength of the Savior of the phantom is known, further wishes will be piled up.
That is, my murder.
I guess they don't want that much right now.
It means that the glory of the modern demon king is so great.
I'm sure I'll strip my fangs here at a stage when the Savior of the Illusion begins to seem like he could antagonize me.
When I reach that stage, can I resist?
Honestly, there's something I don't understand.
He could be killed without the art of exchange.
It would be possible enough.
While drawing those predictions, I was sober.
Nothing moves.
That's what I've been guessing before I spoke to the Great Spirit.
The Great Spirit, who has seen me, confirms this will.
"Are you going to fight justice without form?
"Whatever. I don't understand things as well as being defeated."
If we are to accept death here, we have not become undead in the valley of the dead in the first place.
I don't have a good time.
It also hosts an out-of-popular obsession.
"The opponent is absolutely impossible to physically kill. It's fundamentally different from the heroes we've had before."
"I know. Still not going to give up."
"… there seems to be some way"
"I just flashed. As it is now, there are many uncertain elements, but it will probably succeed"
I have an operation I devised during my conversation with the Great Spirit.
The odds will be pretty good.
Even pinching the prep and some validation was well worth a try.
Summarizing my thoughts, I bow my head toward the Great Spirit.
"It was valuable information. Thank you."
"I just stated the facts I recognized. It's up to you to make your destiny change."
"Oh, you're right. Make sure you get over it."
When I stated that, the Great Spirit disappeared silently.
I guess she acts in the shadows too.
It should serve as a defensive mechanism.
While I'm busy, I have to thank you for helping me in this way.
