211 – Atomic Bomb
Julius Robert Oppenheim.
He, the leader of the Manhattan Project and the father of the atomic bomb, gave this interview after the nuclear bomb ‘Trinity’ test.
“Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.”
(“I am now death, the destroyer of the world”)
······Isn’t this a truly appropriate sentence?
Nuclear weapons are the worst weapon that will ultimately destroy humanity and a symbol of death that indirectly brought about peace.
This can be seen just by looking at the fact that nuclear weapons have not been used even once since 1945.
Its power and destructive power were so devastating that it was never used in subsequent wars.
Because we know very well that if a nuclear war breaks out, humanity will end that way.
-Kugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugugu!’
But in the end, I used ‘that weapon’.
Because I hope for the destruction of the devil more than anyone else.
The worst invention ever created by human anger and hostility was given to a group of demons.
Of course, if the actual Little Boy and Fat Man were dropped, it was obvious that the impact would reach the defense wall, so it was designed to only have half the power.
But even with that, a destructive scene was unfolding before my eyes.
-Blink—Blink!
An enormous flash of light that fills the space.
It is an incredibly dazzling display, as if thousands of suns exploded at once.
If ‘special goggles’ had not been provided to all soldiers just before the atomic bomb was dropped, this enormous light would have been the last light that the humans here could see.
-Kwahu Classes, Friends, and Friends, Friends, Friends, Friends, Friends, and Fruits ───────── ──!
Immediately afterwards, a huge shock wave came.
Energy generated by mass loss is released in all directions.
In the end, mass can be converted into energy, and energy can be converted into mass.
Based on Einstein’s special theory of relativity E=mc^2, the ‘mass deficiency’, or nuclear fission reaction, released such enormous energy.
-Poetry, it is God’s divine punishment… God’s power was given to those devils.
-I didn’t believe that Lord Fix was the reincarnation of a celestial being… But now I have no choice but to believe it.
-Ah, beautiful… Such a destructive and omnipotent power… Has never been heard of before… No, in all of history.
However, those who do not know the principles of nuclear fission are busy praising Me while looking at the destructive sight presented by a nuclear bomb.
I simply borrowed the legacy created by senior scientists.
People look at me with grateful eyes or fearful eyes, as if they are welcoming God.
It was expected, but the public’s gaze like this is always burdensome.
‘What can I do? I have to take it on.’
But this is a duty and responsibility that I must take on.
Anyway, in order to save this world, I have to become the symbol and focal point of humanity.
You must remain calm as if the destructive power created by borrowing the power of Eve and the power of senior scientists was entirely yours.
In the end, hope is needed for humanity not to despair of the coming invasion of the devil.
-Shockwave is here! Everyone, be prepared!
At that time, ‘my people’ deployed throughout the area sounded a warning.
So, this is what the executives from the ‘Fix Engineer Corps’ are warning.
Be prepared for the shock wave coming here.
-Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-gu palace …
And just at that moment, tremendous wind pressure hit this place.
A huge sandstorm hits the defensive wall, and various debris and rocks are hidden within it. And the corpse of the devil strikes everywhere.
The shock wave of the nuclear explosion alone instantly turned this place into a hell-like scene.
-Hwiooooo….
It took dozens of seconds to be swept away by a sandstorm with such tremendous wind pressure.
Finally, the storm passed and visibility began to clear.
The inside of the defensive wall was a mess of various debris and fragments of the devil’s body.
Everyone looked around with blank faces.
“Hey, over there!”
At that time, a soldier pointed to the large screen.
This is a screen that relayed the current status of demons.
-This can’t be right…
-So many demons…
-P, what kind of weapon does Sir Fix use…
And inside the screen, there was nothing.
The sky was filled with hundreds of gargoyles before the atomic bomb was dropped.
Imps and Felbeasts filled the ground. And demon-type goblins.
The space filled with hundreds of demon species literally ‘evaporated’.
It has turned into a land of death without a single blade of grass.
[Cooooo!!!]
However, among these, there were some who survived.
Devil servants that correspond to ‘high-ranking ranks’.
In other words, core forces such as Bone Dragon, Hell Knight, Knight of Oblivion, Blood Maker, and Baron of the Hell survive even after being hit by an atomic bomb.
Of course, I have become a half-asshole.
[ 【We do not give up. We are beings who know no fear. All of you, Lilith-sama’s enemies, will be wiped out.】 ]
However, there was one guy who was relatively fine despite being affected by the atomic bomb.
Death Knights united into one by Azazel, the Duke of Hell.
In other words, the final boss of this monster wave is in pretty good shape.
‘It doesn’t matter. Because the atomic bomb is not the end.’
But I have prepared everything I can for today.
A person who is fine after being hit by an atomic bomb is an unexpected variable, but it does not mean that there is no way.
Because we have ‘giant cavalry’.
‘Well, if it’s okay, I can step in.’
Furthermore, if the giant cavalry does not work, there is a way for me to take action myself.
When I wear the ‘Doom Suit’, I am almost invincible, especially against demons.
‘···But.’
However, the reason the ‘Doom Suit’ is powerful is because it consumes the emotional energy of all my episodes, so there is a time limit.
So, it can be seen as a ‘special move’ that should be used only when it is truly necessary.
For this reason, it is best to save it as much as possible in preparation for the final war with the Duke of Hell.
It was used to defeat the Frost Orc tribe and rescue prisoners, so using it any more would be a waste.

【Prepare mechanized units】
So, I ordered Eve to prepare a ‘mechanized unit.’
If it were a devil unit that became half-baked after being hit by an atomic bomb, this would be enough.
I changed back into the ‘Devil Suit’ and flew into the sky.
***
Destruction.
At this place where the thrones of the six grand dukes, who had risen to the peak of the devil, were lined up side by side, they had unusually serious expressions on their faces.
Edgar Fix.
This is because its growth and destructive power are much stronger than expected.
【That weapon… Is definitely dangerous.】
Moreover, because they had confirmed the power of the atomic bomb, they could no longer guarantee ‘victory’ 100%.
They had never felt in danger while Ed’s suit had been improved several times, but this time they thought it could be really dangerous.
The chain of explosions caused by nuclear fission chilled the Archduke.
【···It’s not just weapons. The absolute power it wields is also at a level that can reach us. If we don’t put everything on the line this time, it will be truly dangerous.】
And that’s it.
Ed’s Doom suit was completely unexpected.
To the Archduke, the ‘atomic bomb’ was a dangerous substance that required extreme caution, but Ed wearing the Doom suit was a disaster itself.
Even they, the kings of hell, could not guarantee victory 1:1.
【With this, it becomes clear. The guy needs to be sealed. We must seal him at all costs and complete our mission.】
For this reason, Melphyn, the Grand Duke of Hell, stepped forward and persuaded that the sealing should be brought forward.
Now we don’t know how strong Edgar Fix will become.
He convinced the other princes that he could achieve complete victory only if he was sealed as soon as possible.
Karaan nodded and walked out.
【Of course. Until all the flames of hatred in my body burn out, Edgar Fix will be trapped in my hatred and will never be able to escape from the world again.】
When the topic of sealing came up the other day, Karaan decided to become a sacrifice.
The fire of eons surrounding him burned brightly.
As much as his hatred for Ed burned, Karaan’s will was firm.
In the meantime, Baal, who was next to him, nodded and said.
【Your noble will will definitely come true. We will definitely make it like that.】
【······.】
【This time, I will also come forward with all my sincerity. Edgar Fix will bow to my power.】
Baal, Prince of Hell.
When he announced that he was leaving, the other princes looked at him in surprise.
This is because he has never stepped forward while Ed’s episode has been repeated hundreds of times.
Because Edgar Fix was always defeated even if he didn’t have to step up.
【Great choice, Baal. He has already escaped our control.】
For this reason, the princes were willing to accept Baal’s intention to participate.
In particular, Azazel, who had previously been treated as a bad IP and malicious code by Ed, was even more welcoming of Baal’s appearance.
He said, twisting the corner of his mouth.
【With your abilities, even Edgar Fix won’t be able to easily counter it. Thanks to your unique boredom, your existence was not revealed.】
【······.】
【But look. My mental control was broken by this guy, but it won’t be easy for the remaining guys. We may not be able to defeat Edgar Fix, but we may be able to at least completely destroy that defense line.】
Azazel suffered great humiliation after being teased by Ed and Eve.
But he thought he could make up for this humiliation by looking at the remaining ‘high-ranking devils’.
This is because each of those demons was imbued with their own power, and in particular, the ‘Knight of Calamity’, which was created by combining all 12 Death Knights, had a powerful combat power that reached the level of a semi-large supply.
[-Kugugugugugugugugung…!]
But the defense line was completely opened.
The moment when tanks and assault machines pour out from within.
Azazel’s expression hardened.
This is because mechanized units that at first glance appear to emit tremendous firepower are pouring out in droves.
I thought they would have used up almost all of their power, but where did such a unit come from?
【······That is.】
More than anything, the huge object following the large-scale mechanized unit caught the eye.
Giant cavalry.
You can feel the tremendous power of the 82m tall giant armored vehicle, also known as the ‘Titan’.
Ed, standing on the Titan’s shoulder, said while glaring at his remnants.
【Wipe it all away. It is the final decisive battle.】
