383 Escape from the palm
happy new year.
When I faced the evil god for the first time in the Labyrinth of Plots, I felt nothing but overwhelming despair.
Perhaps it was because the evil god was so far removed from his existence that that was all he could feel.
I never thought that by becoming stronger, I would actually feel the immense power of the evil god, and that my body wouldn't stop shaking.
The evil god sheds its electrifying magical power and pretends to think about something while keeping us within its sight.
After the evil god appeared, we changed our formation, with Master and Lionel in the vanguard, Rumina-san next to me in the middle guard, and the Pope in the rear guard.
And that's when the evil god tried to speak, as if he had just remembered something.
“Oh, God…you are my agent…please heal my injury quickly…”
The man begged for help as if he were clinging to an evil god.
However, the evil god looked at the man as if he were looking at something dirty, and released a mass of black-purple magic power at the man, causing dust to kick up when it landed on the man.
The time we spent debating whether or not to give the man the finishing blow wasted in an instant.
It doesn't seem like anything special has changed, but will the magic circles in various places also be activated? No, more importantly, if we don't do something about this evil god, everything will be wasted.
By the time I thought that, my body had already stopped shaking.
``Since he has a greedy personality, I lent him some of my help in the hopes that it might be of some use, but I didn't expect him to be this incompetent...'' It seems that my divine eyes have become cloudy due to being sealed in the abyss for so long. more interestinghumantoyIf so, I would have found it...》
When the evil god said this with his scarlet eyes glowing mysteriously, wings of miasma appeared behind him, and four magic circles were deployed behind him.
``Actually, I didn't want to see you again.I think I told you last time, but I want you to leave this world.battleLet's playIt's fine, is not it"
《Hahaha. He's definitely an interesting guy. However, he has no intention of being sealed in the abyss again. And thatdark rootsCryerDo you think it's fun to play with? You wouldn't think so》
This evil god probably likes to talk. Although he is already ready to attack, he is enjoying the conversation with me. Moreover, even though there should be many gaps, Master and Lionel are unable to move.
"But does harassment even mean something that God would do? Besides, in this land where Lord Leinstar is gone, what's so interesting about this boring game of terrorizing people once again through violence and intrigue?"
《Hahaha. It's blue. Games are interesting because the premise is to win. And because you know you will win, you can enjoy the progress along the way. Isn't it great that irregularities like that happen, especially like those two, who were supposed to spend an eternity in the labyrinth even though they turned into undead?''
Ah, how can a transcendent being be so selfish? I just wanted to live a peaceful life and live out my natural life this time...
"Then why don't you just build your own world? Why are you so obsessed with this world that you have to go to the trouble of doing it yourself?"
"HM. I didn't come to this world because I really wanted to. I was called to gain the power to rule the world, and I had no choice but to accept.
After all, what happened in the past must have actually happened. If it were a god, there would be a god of fate, a god of healing, and other good gods...
"In that case, there are no contracted parties anymore. All you have to do is return to the other side."
``That's impossible. The contract is to lend power until the Duchy of Brange dominates the world. Until this is fulfilled, I cannot return home even if I want to.
The evil god makes an exaggerated gesture of sadness and covers his face with his hands, but he is definitely laughing at the person who made such a contract.
“Even if the Duchy of Brange tries to rule the world, in the end they will get in the way, bring us back to square one, and make fun of us in bad taste.”
``I can't believe you already understand me that much...'' Hmm, I'm not a contract holder, but you can give me this world.
"I refuse. What's the fun in ruling the world?"
``If you were in power, you would jump at it right away, but it's also a consideration that you don't have any greed.'' But if that's the case, I don't really understand. Why would you choose to face me with that many people? 》
The evil god looked really strange. When I was reincarnated, I never thought that I would see a future where I would face an evil god, but still...
"Honestly, I didn't want to take on this role. But there were people who helped me and cooperated with me. Is it wrong to fight because I want to protect them?"
``If that's the case, isn't it more likely that you beg or lean on me than defeat me?'' 》
If you beg me to leave this world, I'll kneel on my knees as many times as I want.
However, since the evil god has no such feelings, it is pointless to even think about it.
"You want me to obey an evil god who only sees human life as a piece on a board? If that's the case, I want you to follow the rule of not interfering with this world."
"Good grief. It's sad to be viewed as such an enemy. When you are treated as an enemy like that, don't you want to cause despair?
At that moment, the pressure from the evil god increased, but as long as he could endure it, there would be no problem.
And everyone seemed well prepared for the attack from the evil god.
《Wow. Will it withstand this pressure? It seems like he's gotten a little stronger since then.
"I realized that I couldn't protect what I wanted to protect unless I became stronger, so I had no choice but to become stronger."
《It's superimposed. Anyway, he was supposed to be a healer, but now he's a sage. The other companions are also heroes, guardians, spirit dragon shrine maidens, spirit princesses... And he even has an interesting title.》
Apparently they appraised our status before fighting. Well, it wasn't surprising since he was a god there.
However, it seems that after confirming my title, the evil god raised his vigilance level, contrary to his words.
From the magic circle that had appeared behind the evil god, a sharp reddish-black magic bullet resembling an icicle suddenly shot out.
Perhaps what the evil god was wary of and attacked was not the far-fetched title of [Protector of the World], but the [Heroic Spirit's Disciple], [Heroic Spirit's Friend], and [Heroic Spirit's Blessing].
Normally, the title of Pope would be more strange, but since she is Lord Leinster's daughter, she could probably play around with her status.
If that means that the evil god will only focus on me and the probability of the Pope being targeted will decrease, then that's my wish.
When I activated the Sanctuary Barrier just in case, the magic bullet fired from the magic circle pierced the first Sanctuary Barrier and disappeared.
Because those magical bullets fly in and out over and over again, the sanctuary barrier becomes tattered and disappears.
I speak to the evil god while setting up the sanctuary barrier again.
“Even though you knew the outcome would be victory, was it even a title that made you worry about being cautious?”
"clear. Unlike that time on the street, there should be plenty of room. Are you all the hope for humanity left behind by that man? If that's the case, I'll destroy it completely.
"Is Lord Leinstar so traumatized by his defeat? If that's the case, I hope you regret it."
"what"
“Because we will give you a second defeat!”
This comment I made was the signal for the battle to begin.
I succeeded in activating the Sanctuary Circle and causing the four magic circles that the evil god had appeared to disappear.
Master and Lionel rushed towards the evil god as if they knew that would happen, but it seems that the spirit magic that the Pope had been chanting was completed right after I re-strung the sanctuary barrier, and a huge light appeared. I thought that the spear appeared above the head of the evil god, but it fell at such a speed that I didn't even have time to blink.
However, it seems that the evil god also sensed the spirit magic, and when he raised his palm above his head, he blocked the spear of light.
At that moment, a shock wave occurred, but at the same time, the master slid the blade towards the evil god's neck, and Lionel swung his great sword towards the evil god's body.
The evil god probably wasn't expecting to be cut down, but without being able to block the spear of light that the Pope shot, he was pierced by the spear of light and a blast broke out.
《Stupid...》
I heard such a voice, but I released the Holy Dragon Sword there, and chanted a magic circle to activate the Sanctuary Circle and purification wave, and with the purification wave I tried to erase the dust and dust that had disappeared from the evil god. However, the evil god was nowhere to be seen, and that pressure had completely disappeared.
With this, I was able to defeat the evil god...I wonder how happy I would be if that was really the case.
"They escaped! Everyone please search for the evil god on the spot."
Everyone searched desperately, but as expected, they were unable to catch the evil god.
“Luciel, maybe that man you thought the evil god killed is still alive?”
I had no choice but to agree with my master's words.
"I guess so. Besides, this space is strange after all. So let's escape from here."
“When you say escape, does that mean you’re going back?”
"No, I think I'll try teleporting first."
"Luciel, what do you mean there's something wrong with this space? Were you able to contact us using the magic ball?"
"Yes. However, no matter how far we advance in this space, we are still inside that big hole. That's why I suspect that even now we are being danced in the palm of the evil god."
"If that's the case, you should immediately chase after the evil god. The eyes of the pursuer will surely lead you to the evil god."
"Yes. Please gather around then."
And that was when I tried to teleport.
"Dangerous!"
Lionel held up a large shield to protect my back and flicked something away, and Rumina-san jumped out with great force and thrust her sword into something.
Then, the demon, who had no shadow or form until just now, and whose presence and magical power could not be discerned, appeared and disappeared.
"Rumina-san, are you okay?"
"It's okay. But the demon from earlier? But it seemed like it was made up only of magical power."
It's understandable that Rumina-san is confused, but while she was relieved that Rumina-san, who can see magical power, was on her side, it still didn't make sense that such an enemy would suddenly attack her.
"Maybe it's that man's work."
“Perhaps they don’t want us to leave this space that Luciel-sama mentioned.”
Master and Lionel seem to think it was that man's doing.
But either way, I realized that it would be better to escape from this place.
"Then let's teleport."
《Unfortunately, I can't allow that.》
The voice of the evil god echoed in my head, and my body reacted with a twitch, but I guess I was running away after all.
"Are you trying to buy time?"
《That's right. I just woke up and couldn't get any power and was defeated.》
Even if he admits that he was defeated, he probably means that since he will revive, it doesn't matter whether he wins or loses.
"The next Demon King was easily defeated, the Duchy of Brange's rule failed due to a failure in selecting people, and it seems like he has no talent for playing games, so could you please end this quickly?"
``You can't catch it. But think about it. leading humanity to despairTemptationIzanaI can't believe that I and the hope of humanity that opposes me are fighting without anyone knowing.WabiWabiIsn't it nice?
“What are you trying to do?”
``Make them visible to all humanity.''
"I don't think anyone wants to see it, so stop it."
If I did that, I wouldn't be able to relax after defeating the evil god.
《Are you that happy? If so, I should have done it sooner. Now, while I gather my strength, you two can play in this space.
As soon as I heard those words, five magic circles appeared, and from each of those magic circles, a demon appeared and disappeared.
"Is this the undercard? It looks like it's going to end soon..."
“It looks like that man is there too, so he must be a former Duchy of Blanche citizen. How would you like to help?”
"You're going to show it to the whole world... Luciel-kun..."
“Luciel, what should we do?”
Master, Lionel, Rumina-san, and Pope-sama all asked for my opinion in that order, but I had already made my decision.
"Let's end this farce. This space was created after all, and we have no choice but to escape from here."
I say so, change the fantasy sword into a fantasy staff, pour in magical power, and slowly begin chanting.
``God who rules over time and space, time and space dragon who is dependent on God, the time has come for the evil god to manifest and despair and chaos to rule, as predicted.destinySadameInstead, I ask for a judgment to turn back the time when destiny is twisted due to the intervention of an evil god.]
Immediately after the chant ends, a fierce light appears from the tip of the illusion staff, and the light gradually grows larger.
Then, when it exceeded five meters in diameter, it became a vortex of light, and the space-time dragon appeared through that vortex of light.
Thank you for reading.
Today, January 3rd, is called Ichiryoku Manbai Day, and it's the perfect day to start things, so I decided to start posting from today.
There are many days in a month when you'll have 10,000 days, so it might be a good idea to try something new at that time.
Well, there may be some typos here and there again this year, but I hope you'll support me as warmly as ever. And I will do my best to respond to that support.
I would like to conclude my New Year's greetings by wishing you all the best in 2021.
