The great mage who transcends by returning, episode 341
“…her.”
At my words, the demon’s fragment looked at me with wide eyes.
No way, the expression that I didn’t know I would make such a proposal.
I will make you human
Strictly speaking, this would sound like an insult to a being that is nothing short of a god.
“Are you going to make me human?”
“Yeah, you’re stuck here anyway, you can’t do anything.”
To put it simply, this guy is literally stuffed as ‘Pandaemonium’.
It’s like a god and there’s nothing.
Anyway, speaking of rank, the ‘real’ demon god took everything.
Why is there a cocoon that butterflies go through before hatching?
This guy is like that ‘cocoon’.
I would say it was during my adolescence before the Demon God became crooked like now.
“If you become human, you are free.”
“….”
“You don’t have to be locked up in Pandaemonium. You just have to enjoy your life as a human being and live doing what you want to do.”
You can be a wizard, a swordsman, or an adventurer.
Since he was once a god, he should be able to act as a human better than most humans.
Yes, this guy is also like the apostles.
The demon god’s apostle who was locked in a tomb and couldn’t come out.
If there’s a difference, it’s that it contains alcohol in a considerable proportion.
Anyway, the important thing is that there is no ‘freedom’.
Even if this guy looks laid-back on the outside, he probably isn’t at all.
Still, the guy who once existed as a god is stuffed like an insect in an aristocratic mansion….
“…Do you know what I am?”
“Demon God’s adolescence.”
“….”
When I answered without the slightest hesitation, he made a ridiculous expression and scratched his head.
“Ai sitpal.”
“Being a teenager is not something to be ashamed of. God might have puberty or something like that.”
“Kuhm….”
Suddenly, the boy looked away.
yes that’s it
If you look at people, aren’t there really ‘times you want to forget’?
And the times I want to forget are mostly when I was young with a high probability.
Specifically, about 15 years old?
Of course, there was a time when the demon god was full of such dark history, and like a god, he came up with a big-scale idea.
– Can’t we just take it off?
Profit!
Yes, the demon god was so painful during the dark history that he just chose to separate himself from himself!
And the separated adolescence was buried in the depths of the strange space called Pandaemonium.
“Hey, why don’t you take out the black flame dragon? Since you’re a god, you’ve matured a bit mentally. If you take out a black flame dragon, that’s it….”
“….”
The boy averted his gaze.
Oh, have you ever taken it out?
“Um, since I was locked up, I was just bored, so a few times….”
With those words, the flames of the black dragon fluttered from the corner and enveloped the surroundings. Um, that’s pretty cool.
The guy who came to his senses belatedly started desperately making excuses.
“Of course, I didn’t summon the Black Flame Dragon for such a lowly reason that mankind says. There is a reasonable reason for this….”
“Okay. Let’s say yes.”
For some reason, I don’t think it’s a bit much to go out here unnecessarily.
The guy, who had been flustered and made excuses for a long time, sighed a little, as if the wise man’s time had arrived.
“…So how do you make me human?”
“It’s very simple.”
I pointed to his heart and spoke of my ‘purpose’ this time.
“I will absorb your godhead.”
“hmm…?”
“In moderation, you absorb only as much as you can maintain your ‘humanity’. It’s good because I can increase my Godhead, and you get your freedom back instead of losing your Godhead.”
At my words, the guy asked with a puzzled expression.
“Would I be doing this here when it was so easy as it sounds?”
“Will it be easy?”
I said with a smile.
“You said I am your ‘Young-Yuk’. In a way, I am a blood relative who shares the fact that I am a demon god with you.”
“It has nothing to do with it….”
“there is.”
I said firmly.
Spirit Wise’s power, which sprung from me in the past, had the property of consuming demons and gaining strength.
Later, I found out that Wise was the result of the manifestation of the spirit of the founder hidden in my soul and blood, but the power of ‘gluttony’ that devours demons was different.
“I can eat demons. No, in the first place, my ‘trajectory’ itself was focused on penetrating demons and swallowing demons.”
Apparently, I realized my godhood and climbed up.
However, he did not specifically realize the direction or source of this godhead.
yes, until recently….
“I just realized it recently. That I have the ‘type’ of devouring demons and eating away at demons, increasing my size.”
“her.”
“It means you’re really growing into a being that stands up to God.”
With those words, the shadow connected to me began to wriggle little by little. It was like the mouth of a huge beast.
The teeth of a beast aiming at its prey with its sharp fangs shining.
The guy’s eyes turned to my ‘gluttony’.
There was no sign of fear at all. Rather, it was more like an interesting feeling.
“You said you were going to eat my godhead, so you know my name?”
“I don’t know.”
It was a sudden question, but I accepted it without panic.
The demon’s ‘name’.
Asar is Asar.
It was handed down like that in the first place, and the apostles who served him right away called him that way too.
But he didn’t drink.
‘He’ ‘He’….
They were called that way, but never by their proper names.
That’s why we were hostile to him, calling him a ‘demon’ or an evil spirit.
“You don’t even know my name, so how are you going to eat my godhead?”
“That’s why I’m saying your cooperation is important now.”
At my words, the boy laughed.
And I laughed too.
Names are important.
Right now, even the great devil is complaining that he has not found his true name, but what can God, the source of all of it, do?
In this case, on the contrary, if you don’t know, it’s me who is in trouble.
and after a while
“It’s ■■ Ma ■■.”
the guy told me
It would have been obvious if it was obvious, but I didn’t hear the name correctly to me now.
Anyway, the name of the ‘Demon God’.
It’s probably because I, who haven’t reached that level yet, can’t understand and pronounce it.
But I can’t hear it at all.
got a little bit
“Can’t you hear me? Well, it can’t be helped that the level is not enough right now.”
“Then you can raise the level. Just looking at it, I think it could be raised a little bit.”
“Tsk.”
███████ clicked his tongue as if he didn’t like what I said.
“Are you asking me to do everything?”
“You make me human? In addition, full support for guaranteeing freedom is a bonus. There’s no way the demon will let go of you, my dark history.”
“…It’s so sad that you can’t deny it.”
■Ma■■ let out a small sigh and continued.
“It’s a name roughly connected with ‘the end’. But if the rank is narrowly lacking…I should raise it even if I look at the past a little.”
After saying that, wasn’t the guy suddenly moving busily?
He looked around and made a disapproving expression, then moved his hand dazzlingly.
“time is…It’s not much, but I’ll have to pay attention to this and that.”
The space around it shuddered.
At the same time, everything around you begins to reorganize.
“What are you going to do?”
“Gyeom is sometimes accumulated only with knowledge. there’s that People who read magic books that shouldn’t be read, and then go crazy because they’ve risen in rank.”
“There are cases like that.”
“If you forcibly read that kind of ‘forbidden knowledge’, you can raise your status a little bit.”
Saying so and moving diligently.
It looks like a simple movement, but all kinds of truths were naturally attached to each one.
“But if you’re going to raise the ‘level’ of an existence like you, you can’t do it with just a little bit of knowledge. That’s right, if it’s enough to raise the level in an instant….”
The boy grinned.
It resembled the smile I sometimes wear.
“Asar and the Origin of ‘I’.”
With those words, the surrounding landscape began to change.
* * *
The point of approaching the ‘knowledge’ that Mikhail should not see for a long time.
“…hmm?”
Lian, who was waiting outside, felt something out of place.
It was a very brief discomfort.
A minor discomfort that would not have been strange if it had been normal.
It’s the kind of discomfort that’s so secretive that you can’t see it unless you’re really paying attention.
‘Something is strange.’
But he never let it go.
After all, this ‘gut feeling’ is a powerful advantage that has given him the upper hand in battle so far.
“everyone.”
“hmm? Why are you like that?”
“Get ready.”
Responding to the butler’s words, Lian raised his sword.
At that moment, as if he had prepared himself, an incomparable sensation ran through his body.
In response to Lian’s reaction, the others around them also prepared for battle.
Nothing has changed right now.
Didn’t see anything great.
But that makes it even more dangerous.
“…Holy Maiden.”
“Say yes.”
“Is this really a space where you can’t enter from ‘outside’?”
“that….”
Ariandel’s expression darkened.
Even though I came in with recklessness, I can’t say that this place is ‘safe’ even with empty words.
“If it’s the Great Devil, it might come in rather easily. For now, this is their hall….”
“But the present great devil decided it was okay because Mikhail had beaten everyone?”
“…That’s right.”
The Archdemon currently does not exist.
Unless the ‘boundary’ of the world collapses and the rest descend.
And if so….
‘Sounds that the boundary has collapsed.’
That means the predestined destruction has begun.
“I remember something like this…Because there was I don’t want to think about it.”
Memories before this damn regression.
No matter how completely that ‘future self’ is different from the current self, it is not without those memories.
The scenery I saw that day.
advice given by others.
At those words, Ariandel also let out a small sigh and listened to his temper.
“You mean < Miracle of the Sword Master >?”
“…Wait, was that called that later?”
“Yes, unfortunately.”
At those words, Lian frowned and grunted.
“No, it’s not a miracle, it’s just that I’m strong….”
“Anyway, a miracle is a miracle. You suddenly awakened and won a battle that you couldn’t have won in the first place, right?”
“Uh um….”
Ryan was then quite amused at the fact that the thing was called that name.
Anyway, why are these two talking like that?
It was because this ‘gut feeling’ that Lian was feeling was very similar to that of a goddamn devil.
“…I think you smelled this from over there?”
“I think so too.”
At the same time as Ariandel raised his temper, the other party immediately prepared for battle.
and at the same time.
Kwajik.
Space was shattered with a sharp rupture.
A giant hand squeezed through the cracked space and came out, ripping through the crack.
【Hehe….]
She slowly walked out of the darkness with bright red eyes that fit the description of madness.
Violent Alzeum.
A member of the Great Devil who was waiting for the demon god’s call from the other side of the world.
and at the same time.
“Ha fuck.”
The great devil who co-destroyed Rian himself
before returning .
