396 World order and balance
Lord Rainstar, as well as me, were surprised by the appearance of the space-time dragon, the servant of the creator god Kuyaiya.
However, Lord Rainstar seemed to have suspected from the beginning that there was some kind of connection between the creator god Crya and the evil god, and his surprise at this was not conveyed.
I was able to corner the evil god simply by following what the space-time dragon said just before they parted ways: ``The evil god's body is also dependent on him, and if he continues to lose his magical power and miasma, it will be difficult for him to materialize.'' .
That's why I was hoping that the conditions had been met to remove the evil god as a foreign object in the world...I wish I had.
The evil god glared at the space-time dragon in disgust, and turned his body towards the space-time dragon, as if he had forgotten about Lord Rainstar.
Lord Rainstar also turned his gaze towards the space-time dragon without attacking the evil god.
``Luciel and Rainstar, who have cornered the evil god so well. And now I can finally free you from your long spell, evil god... No, my friend Temitoposus, the god of order and balance.''
《Release from bondage? Is it my friend? Do not be silly! ! Crya, you were the one who invited me to this world, wishing for chaos in order to maintain balance in the world! I will never allow taboos such as using reincarnated people to summon heroic spirits to eliminate the rest.
With an angry expression, the evil god spun a gigantic magic circle that looked as if it had poured all its magical power into it, and threw red-black lightning, which could more accurately be described as roaring thunder, at the space-time dragon.
The space-time dragon accepted the attack as it was, and even though his body was in tatters, he spoke to the evil god... no, the god Temitoposus, who was in charge of order and balance.
``I'm so glad that you still have the same hatred and anger towards taboos as you did when you were the god of order and balance. However, because you spent so much time in the Yorishiro, the consciousness of an evil god took hold, and the Yorishiro became infected with miasma, and instead of being the god Temitoposus, who was in charge of order and balance, you became an evil god. I was fixated on existing.''
《You are the culprit behind everything, Cryer! 》
It wouldn't be strange if the red-black lightning struck the space-time dragon again and the space-time dragon disappeared, but not only I, but Lord Rainstar, who controls my body, can only watch and see what happens.
``Indeed, I was the one who wished for chaos in this world. A world where humanity never developed due to only ugly conflicts. Therefore, I consulted with you, who was in charge of order and balance, and made monsters and demons appear as enemies of humanity due to the evil thoughts and grudges of people. Thanks to this, humanity has united and achieved dramatic development.''
Crya speaks to Temitoposas as if reminiscing about his memories.
``But once humans were able to defeat monsters and demons, they started fighting again. Therefore, by making a demon king appear who controls all monsters and demons, he reigns as an enemy of humanity. And a hero appeared to humanity as a counterpart to the Demon King, so that the balance of the world would not collapse. However……"
However……? Isn't this where the hero of the Duchy of Brange was born?
``At that time, the demon lord was too strong and easily defeated the hero. When I investigated the cause, it was because the creation of monsters and demons had caused a miasma to accumulate in the world. In order to improve this situation, we finally maintained the balance by giving power to the World Tree, which sucks out the miasma, and to the spirits and dragons.''
It turns out that they had a very close relationship up until this point. In any case, not being able to interfere in the world means you can't directly choose a hero or demon lord or change their strength, but you were able to set a general framework in which heroes and demon lords would appear.
However, the reason why the god Temitoposus was angry at how different he was from the creator god Kuyaiya was because they had built this world together.
``We have discovered that humankind grows and develops when given a certain amount of stimulation. But direct interference is not possible. That's why I decided to manifest as a yorishiro.''
This is probably what will cause the two to part ways. Even so, this story seems to be an explanation for me and Lord Leinster.
``It was fun when I first appeared. I was able to fully enjoy this world by dressing up as a human or a demon. But I shouldn't have done it in the real world. There was no way you, the one who rules over order and balance, could know about the lives of humans and demons and remain calm.''
"Do not make me laugh. You knew that humans enslaved demons, demons enslaved humans, and humans enslaved even the weak, and you showed it to me. To make us think about how this world can maintain a balance between good and evil! 》
At this point, more red-black lightning attacks the space-time dragon, but it feels like its power has decreased a little.
``I just wanted you to think about it together. With you, I have grown this world together. But I regret it. I never thought you'd think of strengthening monsters and demons to push humanity into a corner, and that you'd resort to taboo things like summoning heroes in order for humans to fight back against you, and that would be the trigger for you to fall into an evil god...''
``I'm tired of talking about it.'' If that's the case, why did I invite reincarnated people to this world so many times after I destroyed the hero summons and took the hero's place?
``I said that earlier. It's because while you were playing the role of the evil god, your consciousness was pulled by the evil god you depended on, and you forgot to return to the heavenly world. That's why I sought someone who could break your dependence and restore you to sanity.''
Crya's only purpose is to have Temitoposus finish his role as an evil god.
And even though Temitoposus became an evil god, he may have said that he would play games with Krya because he remembers that he was a god of order and balance.
《Are you saying that this is Rainstar, which had the potential to destroy the order and balance of the world?》
When I think about it again, it's amazing that God recognizes me as a balance breaker that destroys the balance of the world...
Even so, Lord Leinster...I respect you.
``Rainstar was born into this world with a heart of goodness that is untainted by evil. But it was because of him that he became strong. Until then, there were many heroes and reincarnated people who destroyed your dependence. But in the end, Rainstar was the only one that got to you."
《Did you want to destroy me that badly?》
"different! ! When Rainstar became a hero 300 years ago, my hope was for you to be defeated as an evil god, finish your role, regain your sanity, and return to heaven together... I never thought that he would use the World Tree as a shield to spread chaos and cling to his role as an evil god, even turning into a miasma...''
《In order to maintain the balance of this world, I will not disappear until I fill everything with chaos.》
"The story that doesn't matter is over. If you're a god, watch over the world as a god, leave the affairs of this world to the people who live in this world, and return to heaven [Tensakugetsuka]."
Lord Rainstar sneaks behind the evil god so that the space-time dragon and the evil god, who are dependents of the creator god Krya and the god of order and balance Temitoposus, are within the attack range, and delivers a huge golden blow that engulfs the space-time dragon along with the evil god. I swung it down.
Thank you for reading.
It was such a difficult birth that I could come up with a number of what-if stories.
