Chapter 355: The Goddess Descends
The air reverberates as if the entire world is tre All clouds in the sky are bloay
Hearing the ru, I promptly stand in front of everyone to protect them from what’s to come
Just doing this won’t save anyone fro world, but even so, I’ve…
“No one step in front of me!”
I’ve decided to protect them
Even through the inevitable collapse of the world as we know it
No matter what happens, until my body erodes away
The crack fills with light, and everyone shuts their eyes
Ku… I wonder what sort of thing the collapse of the world is
Like Glass said, will all life be sucked away, leaving this world an empty shell?
Or it could just be darkness… a black hole-like thing could appear to reduce everything to nothingness
Anyways, right now… I’ll just have to pray for a miracle
As I think that, strong blasts of wind hit ht
Eventually…
The earthquake stops, and I focus my eyes
“Wha…”
Before me is an unfamiliar land; an assimilated world stretches across the landscape
But, perhaps you can say I’ve seen it once before
“This is-”
Glass is dumbfound
Right… without the world falling to ruin, the assimilation ends
“See? The asn’t going to destroy the world!”
The reincarnators hold their weapons out at us and direct their hostility
What does this mean?
We take on our battle forlare at our enemies
The Hourglass inIt’s completely silent
“Now, it’s time for the Goddess to come down!”
One of the reincarnators shouts out, and Witch MKII begins releasing a faint light
“Eh?”
Witch MKII closes her eyes, and without the light showing any signs of dying down, she starts to float
And the light converges… as if radiance is being gathered frolobe
“Ah!?”
Glass raises her voice
“What’s wrong!?” (Naofumi)
“All the Soul Eater monsters under my control have mysteriously perished!” (Glass)
What!?
When I look to the sky… various cluht arrive and surround Witch MKII
Eventually, athered, and MKII disappears into a ht herself
“Mary!”
The reincarnators call out her name
Soon, the gathered light disperses… Standing there, is a familiar, yet unfamiliar… woman She floats in space
“Oh… my Goddess”
“Everyone, I offer you my deepest thanks Because of all of your efforts, I can finally return to this land”
The reincarnators and their comrades silently look upon the scene
… It’s that The atmosphere where a powerful person joins your party
Does that make this the birth of an ultimate enemy for us?
This a or Ga that really comes to mind is, ‘what sort of bullshi+ttery is this?’
“For Mary to be the Goddess…”
“Did I surprise you? In order to assist you, I let fragments of my soul be born into this world They had not my memory, but I truly was close to all of you”
“!?”
Fragments…?
I have an exceedingly bad feeling about this
The one before us who proclai existed as her foundation
No… perhaps it would be better to say that everything was connected
The disco until noas all caused by this
The Goddess turns to us and greets us
“It’s a pleasure to meet you No, perhaps I should say we’ve met many times before? I am Medea Pideth Machina You are the ones who put one of h quite a uncomfortable time, are you not?”
“M-Malty!?” (Trash)
Trash’s voice resounds out
Right, when you look closely, the woman who calls herself Medea resembles Witch to some extent
“Trash, calm down!” (Naofumi)
“Y-yes!” (Trash)
“Ah, hoardly were these people when they used their cruelest , only to execute her in the end How pitiful an end” (Medea)
In aa play for sy her finger at us
“I definitely cannot offer salvation unto you For people like you, I cannot offer forgiveness as one who holds the title of God”
… Her eyes are laughing
My memories whisper to me Those are the eyes Witch made whenever she tried to fool someone
I see So Witch’s true identity was a fragment of a Goddess’s soul
So that’s why she developed a personality unbeco of the child of the Queen and Trash
Fro to lead the world to ruin No e
Perhaps the order engraved on her heart was to torment the Heroes, or to covet luxury and cause the declination of the world
“Trash… please understand The person as once your daughter is now the eneet it” (Naofumi)
“Papa, I’m over here!” (Medea)
With a perfect imitation of Witch’s voice, Medea calls out to Trash
“How dare you order h you were ive you”
“A-ah…”
Trash begins tre
The fear of having the daughter he killed come back… Is it?
For Trash, who cares deeply for his family, this must be torture
“Trash!+ Get yourself together! What about the country your beloved Queen left behind and what do you think will become of Melty!?” (Naofumi)
“…!”
Having regained his senses, Trash begins glaring at Medea
“Now, everyone! Let us defeat the enemy of the world!” (Medea)
“Yeah~!”
The reincarnators raise a loud cry, as they point their varied weapons at us
Behind the them power, is an army from Glass’s World
Is this… an All-Out War!?
daet wrapped up in this pointless battle
But, I can’t be swayed here
I just have to play my part The Leader of my army A Hero Whatever works best Just play the part
Or else, we really will lose
“We’re intercepting them!”
