36. Always smiling and laughing by your side –
On the burning grounds of Formalhaut, something sprang out from the isosceles triangle that Yudahee had conjured and landed firmly on the ground, extending both feet.
“Yeah~”
Stretching out both arms and posing with a galloping gesture towards the one who summoned it, something revealed itself…
“Always smiling and laughing by your si- uh-huh!”
“Ugh! Stop, I’m going to burst!”
Copyright -…
Nyalatotep, who sent a protesting gaze at Yudahee, hastily covered her own mouth.
“It seems like I almost went through something more tremendous than being dragged to another dimension, right…?”
Breathing a sigh of relief, Yudahee gently released Nyalatotep’s mouth.
“San-chi-pinch, San-chi-pinch, San-chi-pinch, San-chi-bit-chi~s-uh-uh-“
Blocked it again.
Really, it’s like watching a cat discovering a glass bottle placed high up, where you can’t afford to let your guard down for even a moment.
Yudahee embraced Nyarlathotep, laughing wildly regardless of Yudahee’s thoughts or words.
“I called, I called~ I really called~”

While most Outer Gods wandered through the emptiness, revealing their true selves, Nyarlathotep had an incredibly unique and boundless taste.
Unknown to anyone, not even Yudahee could fathom Nyarlathotep’s inner thoughts. Nyarlathotep, always assuming the form of a human, wherever and whenever –
“Ta-da~ This time, you know, I slightly burned my skin and even changed to blonde~”
Having taken on the appearance of a blonde-tanned girl, Nyarlathotep rushed into Yudahee’s arms.
“If I put on glasses like this… would it be the completion of Literary Girl Black Gyaru?”
“Heh…!”
Yudahee imagined it.
Light makeup, slightly tanned skin, the combination of blonde hair and glasses… huh, maybe it suits better than expected…?
The charm arising from the coexistence of two incompatible things…!
“So, so, why did you call me?”
“It’s because of that guy over there.”
Turning Nyarlathotep’s chin slightly as they looked towards the sky, the face that was smiling brightly instantly distorted as if they had just bitten into something disgusting.
“This, why is that damn Cthugha here?”
[Nyarlathotep-!!!]
Just their gazes colliding caused the atmosphere to tremble.
The fateful connection between Nyarlathotep and Cthugha was widely known.
In the lush forest known as ‘Silver Guy,’ Cthugha had completely burned down Nyarlathotep’s well-hidden sanctuary… and since then, they had become bitter enemies.
Interfering in each other’s affairs, clashing and fighting, countless days had passed in an uncountable amount of time…
“Hey, you little bastard!!!”
[You’ll pay for this!]
It was Niallatotep, spewing out emotions almost bordering on hatred.
The surrounding atmosphere grew even more intense, much like Krutuga’s.
“Hah, so there was a reason you called me here?”
He usually didn’t bother to call, so I had to come find him myself.
It seemed like I was being dragged into the aftermath of some annoying business. I don’t like Krutuga, but being used like this is just too much…
Niallatotep, whose joy had quickly turned cold, glanced at Yudahi, but Yudahi seemed to be smirking.
“Stop making that face and look down a bit. Look at what’s below.”
It’s about diplomacy, look at it more diplomatically.
“What… Ah-“
Niallatotep’s expression subtly changed as he looked at the burning planet.
“Do you not want revenge for ‘Eun Gai,’ the sanctuary that Krutuga burned down? This is the planet he cherishes and considers his own… right?”
After Krutuga burned down Niallatotep’s sanctuary, he led Niallatotep to this place, Pomalhaut, with the same emotions in mind.
But would Krutuga really give Niallatotep a chance so easily?
Even a stray dog knows better than to eat and run in its own territory.
Krutuga had always kept his advantage of territory in mind and never exposed Niallatotep to it.
Now he had kindly summoned him to this very place.
As Niallatotep realized this fact, his face lit up even more brightly than before.
“As expected of Yudahi! Yudahi! How did you know my feelings so well!”
Warak, instead of recklessly showering kisses, delved even deeper.
Moreover, penetrating to the profound depths…
“Ugh, no! Ump-umph!”
Despite its appearance as Hukgyaru, its presence was one that easily fit within the grasp of the five fingers of outer beings.
“Kieeek-“
With a solid contact, Yudahee’s mind became chaotic.
“Puh-ha-!”
Thick saliva dripped down her lips, and Ni’alatotep, as if satisfied, lifted her head to gaze at the sky.
Though Ktu, with an inflated body, couldn’t easily rush at Ni’alatotep.
Unbeknownst to her, an unknown and mysterious energy began to flow around her, making the surroundings eerie.
Approaching seemed like inviting destruction, a boundless force that could engulf and devour her.
The opponent was truly an eccentric outer being who whimsically took on the form of a human… But on the contrary, possessed extraordinary abilities to maintain the status of an outer being even after such actions.
Normally, taking advantage of the home ground, Ktu would press and overwhelm the opponent… But now, the situation had turned into a vulnerability for Ktu against Ni’alatotep.
Who would have thought that Yudahee held an item, like an uneven-variable transformation, capable of summoning Ni’alatotep?
“hehehehe, living really brings about such incidents… That’s why life is strange, isn’t it, Ktu?”
Ududeuk.
The flames rose fiercely, but it was an irreversible situation.
Looking at Ktu in that state, Ni’alatotep adjusted her posture and surveyed the surroundings.
Although everywhere was overturned by Ktu, there were traces of Yudahee putting up a decent fight against Ktu.
No matter how much she was not visibly injured, it was acknowledged that there was at least one bravado in humans to strike such blows against a being close to a god with their own bodies.
And because of that, Niallatotep couldn’t help but like Yudahee even more.
Niallatotep liked humans.
Happiness, anger, sadness, fear, surprise, disgust, curiosity, anxiety, affection, pride, embarrassment, anxiety, hatred, vulnerability, relief, satisfaction, sensitivity, ambiguity, isolation, agony, faith, excitement, trust… He loved humans who expressed all these emotions so much.
That’s why Niallatotep lived in the form of a human.
Sometimes, he even secretly visited Earth and lived among them as part of their daily lives.
And the culmination of that affection led to one human.
It was Yudahee.
The only human and confidant who remained sane even after seeing their true form.
…And also, his one and only disciple.
It all started because of the words that came out of Yudahee’s mouth.
“There’s nothing to do… Would you like to teach me something?”
Yudahee, who had been recently brought to the alien world, was so bored that she blurted out those words without even realizing it… She probably never thought about how that would come back around.
Once words are spoken, they cannot be taken back.
Even the aliens were bored in the emptiness, and to them, she was a fresh newbie asking to be taught… tempting.
“You… You asked me to teach you first…? Haah… Haah…”
“Wh-what…? W-wait! W-wait a minute! W-waittt!”
Yog-Sothoth took on the role of passing on various knowledge during the long time spent in the emptiness, and Niallatotep took on the role of passing on everything that could be done with the human body.
And the other aliens also gradually… taught their own things.
Dealing delicately with the human body was something only Niallatotep, who had observed and lived with countless humans, could do.
What would they achieve by teaching from the aliens’ perspective?
It’s all about pushing with all your body and power.
That’s why Niallatotep thoroughly taught Yudahee how to move her body from a human perspective.
Walking faster, running, and avoiding all threatening things…
How to hold a sword, draw a bow, thrust a spear, swing a club and pull a halberd…
How to use the terrain, deceive the opponent’s sight, leave echoes of sound to deceive the opponent’s position…
Everything that can be done with the human body, everything she has seen so far, was passed down to Yudahee.
Of course, Yudahee didn’t easily follow from the beginning.
The process of making a sweet and sour human weapon with Niallatotep was truly filled with pain.
“No… – 5XXX6 times
“Save me…” – 7XXX7 times
“It’s too much now…” – 3XXX2 times
“I feel like I’m going to die…” – Incalculable
“It’s okay, you won’t die, right? Our foolish father even issued a special decree not to let you die.”
“Gaah-“
It was only after a considerable amount of time had passed, enough to fill an empty corner with the cries Yudahee let out, that she could be somewhat transformed with patience.
The traces left behind while fighting Ktuga showed that they were not in vain, showing Niallatotep’s satisfied smile and a subtle chuckle.
How commendable it is.
But there were still areas where it seemed lacking from Niallatotep’s perspective.
So, she’s showing her.
The places Yudahee could reach if she made an effort.
…It was a demonstration by a true master, showing just how far Yudahee could go if she threw off the limits of being human.
Niallatotep gently brought her fist down on the burning ground.
Though it was a small human fist, it contained the condensed and immense power of an ancient god…
Kutugaga realized what was about to happen and rushed towards Niallatotep in panic, but it was too late.
Gyahahahahaha.
“Destroy the stars.”
And a massive disk of dust scattered into the void.
—–
…The Golden Apple was truly a mysterious object.
It could regulate the growth of the divine body, allowing the divine to act on the earthly realm.
Its true value lay not only in manipulating the appearance of the divine body, but in what it contained within.
It played a role in shaping the divine body into a vessel capable of fully containing the divine.
Originally, just one was enough to create a perfect divine body, but sadly, Adikia had a sad past of not being able to eat even one due to being pushed aside by Dike.
Of course, not being able to eat it didn’t have a significant impact on the divine.
Separate from the Golden Apple, divine bodies could be created without a problem descending to the earthly realm.
However… it didn’t mean that it had no effect at all.
Especially for the goddesses, the difference was striking, and Adikia, well… well…
[Adikia]

“Why are you staring so intently?!”
It was Yudahee, driven away from the sofa.
Anyway, that was the role… How well Dike, who had eaten two of those, had a well-toned body was a story that didn’t need to be said. No, rather, it was overflowing with charm.
Eating one more didn’t cause any problems, as if not being able to eat was not an issue.
Just getting a nicer body.
However, all these assumptions were the story before Yudahee’s eyes were opened.
Yudahee’s sharp sense, trained by foreign media, penetrated its inner thoughts.
The divine body of Dike, who had eaten two golden apples, was so vast that it was too wide to write about alone.
Sometimes to the extent of losing consciousness, and-
…To the point where it was okay to accept another divine being inside, even if it was one more.
“Rorikstead… I… I’m from Rorikstead… Wait! That’s not it?!”
Dike, unsure of what to do, stood up in place, and Shub Nigras, who witnessed it from afar, was coming this way with an expression that he had not expected at all.
The preparations were already complete.
Summoning a target twice was not the method of calling an entire foreigner, even a complete body like Atlach-Nacha, but summoning only a part of that caliber.
Even though Dike’s inner self was wide, there was a great difficulty in accepting the caliber of a foreigner that encompasses the universe.
To fully accept everything, one might have to swallow the tree itself bearing fruit, not just the golden apples.
So, what was overlaid on Dike’s inner self was very small in the overall context of a foreigner, just a piece the size of a fingernail, but that alone was enough.
After all, the Shub Nigras they were dealing with had turned the tables on the demon king’s disguise, showing only a very small part of his power.
Thinking that there was no better opponent than this to face Shub, Yudahee echoed the true identity of the summoning target.
[…Niallatotep]
“Ga-ha-ah- Always smiling by your side-“
“It’s bursting!”
Once again, it was Yudahee who quickly shut Ni’ala’dike’s mouth.
