443 439. Dimensional rise again.txt (1/2)

In the ”God's Body Vault” recreated underground, I'm going to face Kanami, the one who steals the reason for the dimension.

From now on, I'm going to challenge it to a fight.

I have one goal in mind.

Just like the defeated Lord Ragunet, I'm going to hit Kanami with the Distance Mute.

--The important thing is not to be done by Kanami (...), but to initiate it (・・・・) from us.

I don't intend to pull out the magic stone.

Rather, if you just make a 'connection' against a dimensional magic expert, you'll be traced backwards and pulled out. Even against a corpse, Lagune was about to be taken in many ways by Kanami. If I came into contact with Kanami in the current situation with the ”Distance Mute”, I would definitely lose, too.

But for a moment.

If I had been able to strike out in the air and gain control of the Distance Mute for just a moment, I would be able to confirm it.

Instead of defeat, I can confirm Kanami's true intentions.

Kanami's aim against him was very easy to understand.

Shaking my body, I stare at the traces of blood strewn across the room as I speak.

'I've always wanted to say. I'm here to save you, to everyone here .......

As I said, I'm sure I'm here to save you.

If they want to fight or capture me, they'll bring Maria and Dia and the others, who have been overwhelmed by me once.

Kanami continues to speak, remaining unresisting no matter what happens.

I can tell from her achievements so far and her gentle expression.

The black eyes are careful not to stare too long and converse with Kanami.

'I'm here to save you ......?　Haha, that's just Kanami. You know exactly what I want. It's just that you're looking that far ahead, aren't you?　Didn't I explain to you in the beginning that I don't have to go that far, I'll disappear with the elimination of 'unfinished business'?

'Of course, I think 'unresolved' is important.' -- but I don't think that's all that matters anymore. I've been thinking about it a bit lately. The endings of the Stealers of Reason were all too ephemeral. They all got a sliver of relief in their last moments, were very happy, and then they were gone. But the truth is ......, I'm beginning to think ......, just a little bit, that they could have been rewarded even more.

It was a strange feeling.

Really, me and Kanami have shifted positions in a lot of ways.

But are we still able to talk to each other like ”friends” because I'm good at it?

Or is it because Kanami is trying to get along with me?

I'm a little skeptical.

This situation right now might not be as we had planned, but as Kanami had planned.

As if to dispel such fears, I look down at the Scripture and recite a poem.

'So, you're saying that you're going to save not only your 'unfinished business' but your soul as well?　Ha, it's a luxury. --Chapter XIV, verse 1: 'No one has a pure end, no one. But no one has an unholy end either. We 'stealers of reason' are all madmen who participated in the genocide. Is it really worth saving?

For what it's worth, I don't know ....... But I want to save as much as I can, as far as I can see and reach.

Kanami smiles lightly as she speaks, but every word she says has a leaden weight to it.

Our gazes are in sync, and our conversations are in sync. However, I feel that something important isn't right somehow.

''With that kind of mindset, can you really fulfill my 'unfinished business'?　As you know, my 'unfinished business' is 'watching Aikawa Uzumi (you) grow up to the end'. ...... Let me tell you, I'm a former theologian who is not only old and sultry, but also sultry and sultry. My 'ideals' of the 'Great Messiah (Magna Messiah)' are high, you know?　At the very least, if you can't stop this 'Blood Land', I can't leave it to you.

It's okay, I'll stop it. Now, Fania's ”Fire God”, ”Dark God” and ”Light God” are also here. There's even the power of the god you really want to see.

Firmly, Kanami understood.

She seems confident that she will stop the ”Blood Riku” with the power I want to see.

Stopping this 'Blood Land' is not an easy task.

First of all, of course, you need the power of the 'one who steals the truth of blood'. However, it's not a warm enough technique to stop with that alone. The power of blood is only a supplement, and the important thing is me, the developer and sorcerer.

Moreover, simply defeating me would only cause the Blood Land to spiral out of control.

Just like in the past with the World Consecration Squad, I've taken that much insurance.

In other words, not only the Demon Stone, but also the Scripture must be taken away unharmed, and I must be carefully disarmed by convincing me that I am prone to betray the Lord.

But for Kanami, who had gone through that battle with Yotaki, it wouldn't be that difficult.

If you include a thousand years ago, this man is also a veteran fighter.

In order to keep my body from being overstrained, I follow the words of the 'Scripture' with my eyes and manage to decide on the conditions for this fight.

I'm not going to be able to stop them, but if they can't stop me, then I'll get all the magic stones. I'll be the one to go to the ”deepest part” as well. The unstoppable Blood Land will soak the world in blood and sink it, and everything will be mine. I will be the ...... representative of the 'Lord of the World' (...)

If it really 'sucks', it will.

I don't think we can win, but I set my own victory conditions as a constructional matter.

Kanami lightly accepted that and nodded.

''That's fine. ...... if that's really the 'dream' that's left for you.

It's our 'dream'. ...... Sorry, but my master is still Lagne Kaikwola, you know?　So I'm going to follow the Lord's 'dream'. Even if I'm alone.

As a knight, I will fulfill the Lord's 'dream'.

It's also a kind of construction.

It's an excuse to set it up well (・・・・), but it's true that my Lord is Ragne right now. Even though the Kanami of my dreams is right in front of me - no, it's because she's there, somewhere in my heart, I've always been stuck on her posterior.

The 'dreams' she sees are very similar to mine.

A girl who, like me, is just a person, but who has gained the power of 'the one who steals the reason' and has gone very far. The reason I'm worried about Kanami right now is because of her influence.

''As expected, I'm not sure I can accept filling it up with 'blood land'. I think there are even more opponents than there were for Yangtaki's [Winter's Other World (Wintry Dimension)].

'I suppose. ...... Well, if you feel that way, you can stop it at all costs. Get me to acknowledge Kanami as the 'Great Saviour (Magna Messiah)' and that's all it takes. All you have to do is show me that your power is truly on par with God. At all times, I will only hang my head to God--

I prodded him so forcefully that he was filled with wariness.

Blood sloshed out from underneath my feet in response.

The blood that gushed out of the slightest crack in the floor moves like an elongated leech.

It ran down my ghostly, transparent legs and clung to my torso. It also wrapped around the Scripture from my torso to my arms and from my arms through my transparent hands.

The blood that has been repeatedly compressed to keep the scripture from being separated from my body.

This is a luxurious way to use the blood, which is possible only in the ”God's Body Storage Room” where there is no need for it. To cut off this compressed blood with a blade, it would take enough power to cut through a single sea.

Normally, it's an invincible armor, but it's only comforting.

In front of me, Kanami, who seems to have split the sea just a few moments ago, is staring at me, his black cloak flickering.

I'll have her show me her power up close and personal.

And then, as if she read my enthusiasm to see for sure, Kanami declares.

”'From now on, you will find the God you've been looking for. And the boy of that day will be 'relieved'. Finally, you will be 'happy'. Everyone's soul will be saved.”--

There was not only the casualness of 'friends' but also the solemnity of 'savior'.

The poems, which sounded as if they were written in some 'scripture' rather than spoken words, were the very voice I'd been hoping for all along.

It was chilling and relieving.

I feel that if I follow Kanami's voice, everything will be fine, everything will be easy.

If I reach out to Kanami, I feel like my life will finally be rewarded with the safest feeling I've ever had.

I feel like I'm going to give her the Scripture.

I'm about to admit that Kanami is the ”Lord.

Because Kanami is the protagonist of the story, everything will surely work out in the end.

Just when you were about to be swallowed up by the reassurance that a happy ending was promised if you let it happen...

”Oh, the stinkin' ......

He remembered the voice of Lord Ragne Kaikwola.

'Good, Kanami!　You just said the soul of the people!　Then take this 'ordeal' first!　--Fresh blood magic, the Lost Phanerozoic Academy of Disorders, lower level (Laboratory Jail)!

First, a small check.

From this blood-soaked room, the example 'blood puppets' gushed out.

The number of them easily filled the small 'God's Body Storage Room'.

Starting with the former employees, they began to give form to the 'demons' who were victims of their research and tried to make them spit out their grudges.

''-- Magic 《Default》''

Kanami responded to my petty examination with a petty examination, too.

That basic magic is not even an attack magic.

It's just a magic that shifts the distance.

However, if Kanami used it, the meaning of that magic would change dramatically.

The 'blood puppets' that attacked from all directions at 360 degrees, swung their altered blade arms at Kanami.

However, their sharp cutting edges shifted the moment they tried to cut Kanami open.

It didn't even reach the tip of Kanami's hair or skin, just barely.

Immediately, the ”blood puppets” take another step forward and this time try to cut it in half. But again, they couldn't reach it.

The blood dolls kept coming closer and closer, but from a certain distance, they kept coming to a halt.

The discrepancy in dimensionality creates a strange scene.

I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to find a way to make it work.

Probably because of the ”Deforto”, an infinitesimally close distance has been created between Kanami and the ”blood puppets”.

And the frightening thing about this magic is the perfect control of that dimensional gap.

The hand of the Blood Dolls will never reach the hand of the Blood Dolls, but the hand stretched out from Kanami's direction is--.

One-sidedly, only Kanami's hands stroked the place that seemed to be the head of one of the ”blood dolls”.

At the moment both cheeks were rubbed, the movement of the two stopped snappingly.

When I felt a rush of thick magical power and realized that the ”past vision” was being conducted by the ”Distance Mute”, the shape of the ”blood doll” was crumbling. The soul that was there slipped out and returned to just blood. And immediately, Kanami reached out to her next opponent, shattering her form again. One after another, easily, easily, easily to the casual eye - but in reality, the heavy redemption is carried out unhurriedly.

'Kanami: ......'

My heart, which shouldn't be there, is burning with phantom limb pain.

I felt like I was looking at a painting about God.

Without a doubt, Kanami is deliberately acting out a fighting style that makes me feel that way.

The same fighting style as my late sister's was a good way to show me the 'power of God'.

However, you could say that I'm cutting corners.

In any case, Kanami still hasn't used her signature ”Dimension”. The magic that I didn't want her to use, she might not plan to use it until the end.

Once I figured out the enemy's battle plan through a small check, Kanami throws small talk at me while fighting.

'There are a lot of people from that day here ....... They are the people who were subjected to the 'demonization' experiment because of my arrival. The building was an experiment, but Romis' orders were processed. They were all chopped up in the end. A little bit up from the fingers, instep, heel, calf, and thigh, in order ....... It was painful ...... because there was no anesthesia, or even minimal morality. It was very painful .......

Because she reminisced while fighting and speaking while reminiscing, the impressions of others were mixed in.

Along with the words and expressions that could only be possessed by a person who had fallen into the basement of the 『Magical Research Institute』, Kanami took a step forward.

From underneath Kanami's feet, a ”blood demon beast” appears from underneath the floor, hidden by the shadow of the ”blood doll” and sneaking through from underneath the floor, just like a tree growing.

The eerie shaped monster is about to attack with a roar that seems to break the eardrums.

-------- --GH!

'Combining those parts, the 'Blood Demon Beast' ...... was born. I know a little bit about it because I was also made into a yang-taki. It's really hard to have your soul played with,

However, as if waiting for it, Kanami's hand touched its emerging head.

The result was no different from the 'blood puppet'. No matter how outrageous the experiment is, no matter how intricately the souls are tied together, Kanami can 'see past' them individually and return them to blood.

However, my main goal is not the 'blood demon beast' hidden in the shadow of the 'blood doll', but even more so the 'other blood' hidden in its shadow.

...... Eh?

Kanami let out a yelp of surprise and poked his knee.

Then she looked at what was clinging to her feet.

From the bright red floor, a number of white hands were sprouting from the bright red floor, pulling at the hem of Kanami's clothes.

-- I call it the 'Blood Monster (...)'.

It's a spell that can only be used by me, the Ghost's 'demon'.

This is the first time in history that it has been used in actual combat.
