In line are all the talents I had no talent in this world, but I got them.

But underneath it all--.

[Skills]

Cryptography 1.00 Deciphering 1.00 Acting (...) 10.34 Writing 1.00--

That was one of the biggest.

A skill value that should be rare to move 0.01 in twenty-four hours.

Every 0.01 second it went up and down by 0.01.

Even now, it's still visibly fluctuating.

...... Eh, 'acting'?

I've never seen it before.

And it was a terrifying numerical movement.

It's a phenomenon that can't be explained just by the fact that Yangtaki's magic stone is familiar.

This much skill fluctuation was extraordinary.

It was impossible for an ordinary soul to do so.

For example, if the soul didn't have a crack in it--

Being a natural performer is a scary thing. You can't control who you really are and how you really feel.

I'm not ...... acting. Because my dad and mom said I'm not good at ....... They said I sucked at it, and they dismissed me ......

'We're all liars, including you. ...... How can you live a life like we did and be 'happy' after such a terrible 'last battle'?　You're 'unhappy' and you didn't deserve any of it.

'Ha, haha ......, now (・・・・). Ahahaha ......

Serdra's words echoed.

They resonated more than any words I had ever heard before.

They shook my soul, hard and deep.

Did I have an innate 'act'?

I mean, all along I've been using 'acting' instead of 'writing'?

No. Were you 'writing' while 'acting'?

With the realization, the skill ”acting” is about to be stripped away.

The ”happy/unhappy (...)” days of magic ”Reading Shift” are fading away for once.

Until just a few moments ago, the ”Reading Shift” and the ”Dragon's Roar”, which should have been a rivalry, were completely settled.

The deep sea was dark, cold, and just plain painful.

The 'Voice' is also only the vibration (voice) of Seldra.

''...... Rastiara, do you hear me?　From now on, I'm going to finish Kanami's ”The One Who Stole the Reason of the Dimension”, the ”Trial of Zero”. The only person who can overcome this is me, who can really make Kanami suffer. ...... Above all, this is my fault for killing you. Please accept me as I accept you, just as I accept you.

With that declaration, Serdra moved her gaze.

Beyond that, there was the figure of Rustyala, which only I should have been able to see.

And she was staring back at Seldra and nodding.

'Russ, Tiara ......?'

Rastiara's soul has turned to her opponent.

Most of all, Seldra's dialogue delivery is driving me crazy.

With this, it's as if I'm the 'villain (boss)' and Serdra is the 'hero'.

That's just not good enough. There is no such thing as the ”Test of Zero” in this story. We made a contract. I'm Rastiara's ”hero”. If you don't perform that 'performance', you won't be able to stand up. Since the defeat to Yotaki, you haven't been able to stand up even once. The ”hero” always needs the ”voice” of the heroine. I need ”her” for me. I can't let her go. I love her. I never, ever want to let her go again. ”Lastia, Lastia, Lastia, Lastia--

I turned to 'Rustyala' for support.

Immediately, he looked back at me.

But he didn't say anything.

He's trying to watch me and Serdra, trusting me and Serdra, and not saying anything.

I know.

This is the kind of thing that Rastiala has in mind.

If her soul decides to believe and shut up, no matter how much 'parallel thinking' she is using, she won't hear the 'voice'. If she did hear it, it would already be an 'auditory hallucination' - and that's it.

'Ce, seldoraa ....... How dare you ......, you've done it .......

So, at last, my true feelings come out.

My bare self's voice was surprisingly snatched up even by myself.

'Serdra, it's your 'ordeal' to end it. It's not mine. ...... It's okay, you can go back to your 'fun/painful' days. You'll be able to get back to your ”happy and painful” days, too.

I have no more support.

Then we have no choice.

It was Seldora himself who wanted it.

So, be honest with me, and be honest with me.

You have to be able to live with who you really mean it.

To the chanting, you have to chant--

”-- 'The number of lives in sin and error goes back (・・・・・・・・)' --

I respond.

At last, he recites the dimensional attribute 'chanting'.

Immediately, I feel a strong gaze (...) on my back.

It seems that because I called out to her, she has completely connected with me from the ”other world” across dimensions to this one. As usual, looking at my male figure, magic power - for some reason, my gaze is a little unsettled. But they'll provide the magic power as per the deal. If you don't ...... it, I won't allow it.

And the gaze (...) is another one.

This 'original world' also found a soul called me, and I was reacting to the 'chanting' deal.

The 'other world' and the 'original world'.

It's a good idea to set up the 'chanting' in a dual way, and I seriously amplify the magic power.

”'To that farthest projectile' -

Instead, what we pay for is 'constriction'.

The ”curse” hits me, and my feelings for ”Rustyala” grow even more.

I don't want to leave her for even a moment, so I begin to replay (・・・・) and rewrite (・・・・) her, trying to be a ”hero” worthy of her.

As ”The hero of Rastiara”.

As ”The Protagonist of Rastiara”.

As Rastiala's Protagonist.

The more ”constrictions” I pay, the more power I have to stand on the stage.

Not only would I be able to progress with my script, but I would also receive magic power for direction from the audience.

It was a deal with nothing but profit. It was a foul deal.

The more I chanted, the more invincible I became.

So, with a snap.

The shaking of the deep sea stopped.

Not only the vibrations of Seldora, but even the sea itself, I made it still.

The deep sea begins to emit a pale purple light.

Thanks to that light, it becomes a suitable screen for reflecting the magic ”Reading Shift”.

With just one 'chant', enough magic power to permeate the entire ocean for a star.

Simultaneous transactions against two worlds was an aberration and a sinful transgression no matter how you think about it.

That's why the price was so great and there was no stopping it now.

''I vow to atone for all my sins and transgressions.'' --Cursery Technique 《Level Up》

The excess magic power is converted into 'nerves that have no mass'.

That is the so-called 'thread' that Yotaki used.

Purple threads of different colors sprouted from the sleeves of my clothes and began to swim in the deep sea like the tentacles of a mollusk creature.

That 'purple thread', for starters, touched my left arm, which had been 'coagulated' all along, and invaded and made a 'connection'. It's a crappy virus that combines magic and science. 'Adjusting new rules' or 'misidentifying souls' is possible, but I'll handle it by infecting it with the 'purple thread' and then separating it like a lizard's tail.

The body is now fully prepared.

But even so, there's still plenty of magic left.

In the deep sea, I changed my stance so that I could somersault.

Slowly, from my head, I fall to the bottom.

All the while, I continue to convert my magic power into the purple thread and continue to extend the tentacles that overflow from the sleeves of my clothes on my hands and feet.

Countless purple threads began to erode the deep sea.

Seldora, who touched one of them, sensed what I was doing now and intensified the vibration with further 'chanting'.

''----?　'Sinful Blood Sipping' and 'Sinful Seeds to Fullness'!

Serdra swings her arms and wings around as if to shake it off.

The 'purple thread' is torn off the moment it is touched and shatters.

As expected of Seldora.

Even if you can't see it, it seems to be able to detect the moment it interferes with you.

It hurts a little bit, but I don't get frightened and multiply more and more of the 'purple thread'.

''- ''Even if it's the end of the world, I'm sure--''

Serdra would be terrified.

To him, this is a distant and unfamiliar 'other world'.

Countless invisible 'purple threads' in the dark deep sea.

Seldora's psychological description is conveyed through the skill 'Reading'.

”--A frightening (horror). It was a chill from the heart. Awe. Strong emotions, to me, are my favorite to drool over. But I regretted it. Kanami's panic that I should have been chasing for a long time. Somehow, in the face of my longing, my body trembled to the core, frozen and unstoppable. I, the 'Evil Dragon (Fafner)' who controls the trembling of this world, was feeling a primal fear. I understand for the first time through Kanami the meaning of the 'Evil God (Noi)' of the teachings I was once taught in the village--

It is upside down and sinks into the deep sea like a giant sea-moon (jellyfish) 'stealing the reason for the dimension'.

Infinite tentacles reached out from the bottom and tried to capture it from all directions.

Serdra feels a sense of danger and releases more 'dragon roars' towards those tentacles.

'Wait, Kanamiiiiii--！！！！'

The next step is to use the ”dragon's roar” and ”purple thread” to interfere with the game.

It's a good idea to use the chanting to back up the enormous amount of magical power that's available.

I continued to watch the conflict as I fell to the bottom of the ocean, watching and spinning.

Therefore, ”Let me save (・・・・・・) everyone (・・・・・・)

I finished the whole poem and felt a little nostalgic.

When was the last time I vowed to do this?

As I recall, it was when we were fighting the titty ones behind the labyrinth.

What was I thinking when I made this 'chant'?

For some reason, I remember Ragne, who was half a body. The nature of that mirror.

Yotaki played with my head, Tiara controlled my fate, and yet I still wished to be me?

There were many things that came to mind.

But these things are no longer important, the only thing that matters is ”Rastiara”.

All that matters is getting ”Rastiara” back. When I felt ”Rastiara”, I would copy and paste ”Rastiara”, ”Rastiara”, ”Rastiara” and ”Rastiara” into my mind, and then I would be relieved. Rustyala” always smiled at me. Her beautiful hair would sway, and I would fall in love with her, and she would always help me in this painful 'other world'.

The more I compose, the more I focus on ”Rustyala”, the more comforting it is to be able to focus only on ”Rustyala”. Because as long as I'm the protagonist of ”Rastiara,” I feel as if ”Rastiara” is right next to me. Because I'm ”Rustyala” and ”Rustyala” is ”Rustyala”, and ”Rustyala” is ”Rustyala”.

”A battle cry is the battle cry of the world, a shake is the battle cry of the world, a shattering of the earth.

-- ”-- 'I love Rustyala,' and 'Me and Rustyala love each other, so our thoughts are the same.'

Seldora's 'Dragon's Roar' and my 'Purple Thread' are not that much superior in power.

Hence, it became an endurance contest of 'chanting'.

The more you let it break off even once, the more your opponent will dominate you.

It's an interesting match, but the result of paying the price was too unfair.

The more you pay for adaptation, the more anxious Seldora frowns.

In contrast, I was relieved by the ”constrictions” and smiled.

The unequal endurance comparison lasts for a few dozen seconds.

The end, begins.

'Oh, it's bright ....... It's like 'Christmas' .......

The shredded ”purple thread” shattered into pieces and drifted across the ocean as dimensional attribute magic power.

Even though it was the 'original world', it turned into a snowfall of magical power unique to the 'other world' (Tear Ray) and fell.

The amount was extraordinary.

I originally boasted a nearly infinite amount of magical power, but I had tried to use the magic Reading Shift, which projects memories onto the ocean, and failed and failed again and again.

Furthermore, with the magical power obtained through the most dangerous ”chanting” in the world, the purple thread was spread, shattered, regenerated, and shattered.

The deep sea, which should have been jet black, was filled with a pale purple light.

Thanks to the 《Dimension》, the depth, breadth, and height of that light's range can be seen.

Right now, all the seas in the 'Original World' were emitting light.

The surface of the sea was glowing with disaster, as if it was a world-ending movie.

The seven seas were dyed, and a purple tent (aurora borealis) descended and flickered in the sky. Perhaps because it contained the remnants of the magic ”Reading Shift”, it was not entirely irregular, but reflected a bit of a magic circle.

It is a scene that reminds me of the ”World Apocalypse”.

Perhaps the people of the ”original world” are now shivering at the phenomenon of abnormal starlight.

Furthermore, the countless purple threads that were about to disappear into the deep sea were rising into the sky.

You may be frightened, but you can rest assured.

All of this dimensional attribute magic power is under my control.

So I'm good at putting a little light magic on the purple tent (aurora borealis) that has reached the ground. Anyone who sees that purple light in their eyes, projects it onto their retinas, and sends a signal to their brains will, without exception, be fawned over and won't care. --It's okay, guys. We won't disturb anyone anymore. Soon, the 'Gentiles' will return. Because this isn't 'Rustyala's World'.

”--Magic [Spotlight]

I'm not sure if I'm the only one who can do this.

It's a good thing that the magic stones in my body, the ones that steal the logic, have gotten used to it.

I've been trying to become the one who steals the logic of the stars, both in name and in deed.

Under its influence, the deep sea was no longer a magical world.

The deep sea is very bright, with countless 'purple mirrors' floating in the air, as if we are in a kaleidoscope.

In the center of the mirror, a black evil dragon is reflected.

Even more than when they were fighting on the sandy beach, Seldora's limbs had grown even larger than when they were fighting on the beach.

In order to counter the ”Purple Thread”, it is covered with scaled armor.

He continues to move his wings and tail while letting out a 'dragon's roar'.

Oh .......

What a terrifying figure .......

The dragon is probably the most popular ”villain” in stories.

And if you are going to face this black dragon (seldora), there is no one better than a ”hero”.

The most popular ”hero” is the most popular as the ”hero” of the story.

What we're about to see is nothing short of a slaying-hero story.

I'm so glad. After all, I am the 'hero of Rustyala'--

Falling upside down and falling, I read Seldora's The Last Page with relief.

The thickness of the pages on my fingers is no more.
