The ”deepest part” where any wish can be granted.

The first person to attain this goal was Seldra Queenfillion, the Dragon Newt, a thousand years ago.

It's a famous story about how I, the most powerful person in the world, obtained an adaptation there and became the thief of nothingness.

However, the reality of that story is a little different.

At that time, I was at the end of everything.

I even thought I was willing to destroy the world for my own pleasure.

I hated myself so much that I believed in the legend of my home god.

It is the legend of the dragon race and the winged race, passed down from ancient times throughout the continent.

It's a good thing that you can't get away from the fact that you can't get away from the fact that you can't get away from the fact that you can't get away from the fact that you can't get away from the fact that you can't get away from the fact that you can't get away from the fact that you can't get away with it.

Even if it is the 'evil god', God is God.

With a little bit of hope in my heart, I headed to the ”deepest part”.

In other words, the reason why I went to the Deepest Place is not because of invasion or curiosity, but because of the pure hope of God. I was just one of the believers everywhere.

At the end of the day, the two people with an ancient fate passed down to them finally meet up.

After overcoming the distorted path of Apostle Diprakra and the dimensions, they reach the 'deepest part' at the base of the World Tree.

It's a historical moment.

However, the ones facing each other are the 'Weak Minded Evil Dragon (Seldra Queenfillion)' and the 'Weak Minded Evil God (Noi Elle Berur)'.

They were supposed to fight on behalf of their race, but both of them had their limits of spirit (mind).

Not only did they not kill each other, they didn't even fight each other.

They just met and were disappointed in each other.

In my weakness, Noi was disappointed in me.

In his weakness, I was disappointed in him.

Anyway, we said hi. We said, ”Well, this has been hard on both of us. Then we decided to hand over what we could to each other and not to interfere in any way, and we broke up in an air of complacency.

That was the end of the legend of the Dragon Race and the Winged Race, which had accumulated over tens of thousands of years and blood.

--The true history of the ”deepest” is such a shameful one.

Immediately afterwards, I imposed my role (Fafner) on a young ghost ”demon” born in Fania.

This time, I will continue to experiment and test all over the world in order to achieve normal 'happiness'. ......

If a defective product tries to force itself to 'adapt', the only thing it can create is a vicious cycle.

Every time I failed, the people around me became 'unhappy'. At the end of it all, I'll have to fight the 'blood-stealer' Fafner, whose life was ruined because of me.

It's all my fault, but a thousand years ago, that young ghost ”demon” was treated as the deadliest monster (Fafner) in the war of the World's Migration Team. And I would be left in the history of the future as one of humanity's hopes 'Great Hero' Seldra.

It was sinful, shameless, really 'worst' and--!

”--Don't cry, Serdra. If it's too much for you, you can run away again.

And the hallucinations were getting worse.

Maybe it's because of the blood rain caused by The Stealer of Blood, but it was often audible.

'Ah, ah, ....... Also ......

The magic of Kanami's ”reformation” made me and the deceased Lords and I ”come together” (...).

Because I'm with this guy, I'm able to reach normal ”happiness”.

I can eat the soil and breathe the air and it tastes good.

Wherever I go, whatever I see, I can laugh.

Whether it's a second book or an otherworldly book, it's funny.

-- and even if you patch it up with pretty words, in the end it's Kanami's magical power, a kind of hallucination. It's just a way to 'escape' from the painful reality, but it didn't solve any of my fundamental problems.

That's why I've always hated myself deep down, and I keep looking for a place to die.

Whenever I have a bad day, I immediately want to ”escape”.

It's too pathetic and uncool, and most of all...

”It's not a shame. ...... Everyone has the right to experience normal 'happiness'.

............

”I knew it was a bad idea to go underground. It's dark, musty and rusty ......, let's go back upstairs, shall we?　Now, the air of the festival will fill the air above the ground. With the festival air, the earth is full of festive air, and everything is fun. It's noisy and cheerful, and you can be happy right away.

Amidst the rain of blood, my deceased cousin (Ane) 'Dragon Newt' smiles at me and gently tells me to run away.

Even if you give up everything, a convenient god will surely forgive you one day - a piece of advice that only a follower of the Inscription White Church could give.

'Of course, you can stay on your knees like this. If Seldra prays here, he will surely reach you. To the evil god who watches over you at all times--'

My hallucinatory cousin (Ane), standing next to me, turns her gaze to the magic door in the center of the 99th layer.

I almost stop crying at the kindness of it.

''That's right ....... Give up, cry, and cling ...... to it. If you pray, one day ......, you'll be able to do it. Someday ......, so, someone (...) .......

But it is firmly in the vision that blurs into those tears, and it is reflected all the time.

Even in the rain of blood, it stands out.

A scattered path of shattered red crystals had been cut off halfway through.

The continuation of the story was ”You take over”, I felt that the red-copper colored magic stone at hand was appealing to me.

I felt as if I could hear the voice of the dead, louder than the ”King Dragon” in front of me, all the way from my back.

It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to get away with it.

'No one's coming (・・・・・) ....... Myself, I have to go to .......

I chose a word that wouldn't embarrass the descendant (Glenn).

My cousin (Ane) stiffened and turned her gaze towards me.

It was supposed to be a hallucination, but she moved as if she had a soul.

It's natural. I kept 'escaping' but there was nothing beyond that. Praying alone wasn't going to save anyone. No matter how hard or painful it was ......, I still (・・・・) lived (・・・・・・・) diligently (・・・・・・・・) trying my best until I died. That's all I had to do, ......, there is no more 'escape'. That's all ......, because that's all it was ......, that's all it was. Kuhu, kuhu, kuhu, ......

I scoffed to myself.

Immediately, the 'King Dragon (Lord)' shook his head.

''There's no reason for nothing. I'm sure that the evil god is just beyond that door. You'll be able to see that the evil goddess' ”magic that makes everyone happy” promises you a ”happy” ending.

That's why you're dead, isn't it?　...... I knew I should have rolled up the pages of The Past with my own hands. Kuhaha ....... That's what happens when you enjoy and magically skip over it ....... I didn't even realize that the rituals of the village were still going on.

I cried and clearly talked back to the hallucination.

However, I thought the way he argued back was a little different from his own words.

Who said this narrative addiction-like expression was?　Maybe it's Kanami. She mourned Tiara, Hitaki and Rastiara, but ”Kanami, who was trying to live diligently and hard until she died,” taught me that the most important thing is to go on by yourself. From the beginning--

''The ...... rituals in the village are all over now. A thousand years ago.''

'No, it's still going on. Because that was a ritual until they killed the evil gods and took away the 'Lord of the World'. And a thousand years ago, I was praying to the evil one to save me. ...... Just like you. That's why the d*mn ritual has morphed. Maybe adaptation is something that adults have been doing for generations. But the Escape was created by all of the Younger Dragons.

Both would be unstable and a special form of 'curse'.

It's because I kept turning away from those two that I grew so big.

If you keep 'escaping' from the rituals, it's only natural that you will continue to swell. Because it's going on. ...... So, instead of 'escaping' it, I had to eat it and get over it. From the beginning.

I felt like this was someone else's words too.

Is this Glenn?　No, no. I feel like I was taught that when I was talking to Snow earlier.

I moved my tear-filled eyes.

On the battlefield that had been so noisy, the long blue-haired dragon man was still sleeping peacefully.

The next time he woke up, Snow would find out that his own brother was dead.

I wonder what he will look like then when he sees me who killed him. If he's enraged, fine. But if it was the other way around--

Just imagining it was painful and painful and made me want to die.

Hastily, I try to get up.

I was still trembling and felt like I was going to fall.

I couldn't stop crying and it was hard to see.

I'm sure you'll be happy to know that I'm not the only one.

It's heavy.

It's not just a simple matter of weight, it's a heavy boy in every sense of the word.

While thinking about such rude things, I start walking again.

It's not on the ground anymore.

The way out was now closed.

So, contrary to my original plan.

I go back on the red road that Glenn made and try to get to the ”deepest part”.

'Oh, as a cousin (Ane), I ...... want my cousin (you) to find normal 'happiness'. It's not too late if you take the child and return to earth right now. I'm not going to be able to get the same kind of results as you.

”That 'hero' deception is a compromise that your cousin (nee) came up with when she was a kid (kid), right?　What I want to achieve now is not to cheat on 'heroes' ....... That's the extent of it, I won't be able to get rid of my 'unfinished business' anymore: ......

I shook my head and interrupted him.

My 'unrequited desire' is not just to fulfill the wish of one cousin (Ane).

Because, that day, I wasn't the only one I ate to death.

Cousin(ne) ....... I want to fulfill the true wish of my hometown's 'One Young Dragon of the Village (Seldora)', even if it's hard and painful. That's my real 'unfulfilled wish' .......

”My hope is that (・・・・・) ......, if you alone (・・・・・・・) 'live a happy (...), normal life, then--

”Everyone's wish (・・・・・・・) was for everyone to (・・・・) 'happily (...)' live a normal life. ...... It's natural. Of course all of the 'Younger One Younger Dragon (Seldora)' and the rest of them all wanted to be together until the end, they all really wanted to live out .......

It really is natural, and it was an 'unrequited love' that was almost trivialized by the magic of God's 'reformation'.

The reason Kanami only showed me her cousin Ane in her ”past vision” was simply because it was convenient for this too large ”unrelieved remnants” to be ”reformed”.

But the real history is a little different.

I'm not only connected to my cousin Ane.

You can't do that in a hidden village that has a long history in such a small world.

The first thing that comes to mind is the fact that you can't get your hands on any of them. I'm the only cousin (you) anymore. Disobeying the guidance of the evil gods, you can't ......!''

You weren't just special, you were everyone. Everyone in the village was a special family.

”Ce, Serdra. ......--

'But it was me ...... that ate everyone of them up. I can't 'pretend' it didn't happen. Changing that 'past' is as good as throwing up on everyone ....... So you have to go, even if you have to hold back the vomit. Because it's up to me from now on whether or not you all live through it. ...... What I do from now on will determine ...... the meaning or value of everyone's birth and what they are worth. ......

I stagnate.

Because the perpetrator's argument was so selfish that just saying it made me want to vomit.

It's painful.

It's painful.

I am ashamed.

I want to die.

But Snow showed me that painful path.

The red path of Glenn is leading us down it.

Even if it's a distant blood relative, the new clans connected to me were willing to follow that path - so I chose a path that my clan (all of them) wouldn't be ashamed of - the red path that was lost. He walked down the road to the end of the path and reached the magical door that Fafner had made and stood in front of it.

Once through here, I would never return.

But I'm not going to go above ground, I'm going to go back to the next layer.

Cousin, I'm going to make sure that our village's young dragons' true wishes come true. Even if it's something that can no longer be fulfilled no matter what you do ....... Still, I'm going .......

It went in the opposite direction from God's idea of a 'plan'.

Thus, the ”Dragon Man (Dragon Newt)” Seldra Queen Fillion will reach another 100 layers.

''Kukka, kuhahaha ......''

It was very dark beyond the door.

There is an endless ford with a single cobblestone path laid out on top of it, with towering platforms standing at regular intervals at both ends.

It's a frightening hundred layers, but I walk down it with my accustomed gait, holding Snow in my arms.

I feel like I'm walking in the darkness of the abyss, but the towers keep me from getting lost.

As we continue on our way, we hear the sound of rippling waves.

Waves were rising in the shallows around us and drifting lazily backwards.

Knowing the meaning of that current, I head to the source of the waves, as if to defy it.

The path is quiet.

I wasn't hallucinating anymore.

Like my cousins (me and them), I was gutless. That's why I'm so fragile. It's really 'sucks' at ......, thank you. I'm sorry .......

And as I repeated the swearing and apologies that I didn't understand, instead of hallucinations, I saw something like a ”magic stone line” glowing faintly in the shallow water on either side, intricately intertwined.

Huge magic circles were drawn on the surface of the water that rippled with the glowing lines, and they were shimmering.

It resembles the 'World Vengeance Formation' that drove humanity to the brink of extinction a thousand years ago.

However, this one is incomparably more complete than this one.

It's not just a single continent, it's the scale and density of the 'magic formula'.

That's why we hurry towards its center.

I don't know how long I've walked these 100 layers because my sense of time and distance gets screwed up.

So, as usual, it was ”before I knew it”.

I noticed that I found a huge pale light at the end of the cobblestone path I was walking on.

In the midst of the abyss, a huge tree-like object that glowed with a purple light rose up and was gently lit.

It's as big as the ”World Tree” on the ground (above) and as high as my field of vision.

The World Tree, which is a different color, was a mystical sight, but the dark purple color gave me nothing but trauma, and I couldn't stop feeling chills and nausea.

I walked even faster, heading for the base of the glowing World Tree.

Once again, I don't know how long I've walked, but an uncertain amount of time and distance passes by - and before I know it, I'm there again.

To the root of the tree.

To the throne that proves the ”Lord of the World”.

On that hard-looking stone chair, the 'source of all' was sitting.

-- Aikawa Kanami, the black-haired, black-eyed 'Gentile', was meditating on the throne of God.

Just like the last outfit I saw her in, she was wearing only a black robe.

However, everything else has changed greatly. First and foremost, the amount of magic power is strange. The words ”vast” and ”ordinary” are not enough, and conceptual words (things) like God and the sun come to mind. Its shining purple color is so beautiful that I have to avoid looking directly at it to avoid crushing my eyes and heart. My body, of its own accord, almost took on a posture of worship.

And what adds to its divinity is the divinity of the bare hands and bare feet peeking out of the robes.

All of the skin was etched with a 'magic stone line' (line) that seemed to emerge from the 'art form'. Perhaps it was the same as the magic circle that was spread out over a hundred layers. ...... I don't want to imagine it, but the magic circle and the assimilated kanami spread throughout the world.

If you look closely at those limbs, they are insubstantial.

It's a state of affairs that could be called ”half-magic”. It seems that it is on its way to changing from a material body to a magical existence composed solely of ”demon poison”.

--Yes, it's on its way....

In other words, it's not too late.

As long as they can recognize it this way, they haven't yet abandoned ”human”.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most out of the situation.

'Yo ......'

Kanami, who has been called out to me, has already noticed my coming.

She slowly lifts her closed eyelids and then replies with my image in her jet-black eyes.

'...... Hi.'

Just like a thousand years ago, I finished exchanging greetings with God.

But it was far more intimidating than the Noi of a thousand years ago.

Now you're telling me that there really is a gap ......?

Apparently, he can't afford to be in a state of flux due to the fact that he's currently building the greatest and most unfortunate magic in history after taking the rituals of the continent in stride: .......

I'm not sure that's the case at all.

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this by looking into their jet-black twin eyes, and it's as if there are multiple layers of mirrors behind them.

It's like stepping into a mirror and being surrounded by an infinite number of mirrors.

A chill runs down your spine, goose bumps start to form - and the sensation of being crawled towards.

The surface of the water, shimmering in a hundred layers of shallow water, had begun to swirl as I got closer to Kanami.

An invisible 'thread' crawled out of that water surface and was trying to creep down my legs.

But since a while ago, the only thing that moved was the thread, and Kanami herself didn't do anything. She doesn't move.

She's probably waiting for me to say more.

--The silence fills the faint 100 layers of darkness.

It wasn't me or Kanami who broke that silence.

A short distance away from us is the rocking chair where the captive Maria continues to sleep.

At its feet, that Noi was drinking and sleeping with Maria.

She wakes up, relieved, rubs her eyes, and is surprised at my return.

'...... What?　Huh?　Serdra, why do you want to go to ......?

He tilted his head and shook his long brown hair, which was inherited from Ragne Kaikwola, and wondered what I was doing that wasn't in the 'plan'.

To be honest, I felt the same way.

If you look at my status right now, my 'Confusion' numbers would be in trouble.

So, as I explore for myself, I'll tell you how I got here.

'I fought my way through the 99th layer of intruders from ....... Fafner sank with the janitorial guy, Glenn is dead, and Snow is here. As planned, there was no one stronger than me. This me was the 'strongest'.

In terms of results alone, yes.
