Shinju
light and darkness.
The two flames entangled with each other and swirled.
Veronica absorbs the surrounding magical energy and creates a flame that emits a bright and bright light,
Steve absorbed Veronica’s light, and the flame that burned even darker.
However, in the end, even Steve’s black flame was made of magical power.
Even though Steve can absorb the kinetic energy of particles in Veronica’s flame and use it as his own power, in the end it’s magic.
Before her return, Veronica, who was famous as a witch of condemnation, was called the magician’s natural enemy as a sword that burns magic.
Veronica, who has now become a saint of Leon, had more superior abilities than at that time.
In addition, the aura that burns magical power cannot be dealt with only by fire.
Raging Blast.
The magic, in which the two elementary particles composing magical powers rotate at a speed that cancels out the force to be combined with each other to draw in the surrounding magical power, naturally fluctuates the quantum field in the process of gathering the magic to produce matter and energy, but it has no side effects. it is only
Its true effect is an overwhelming amount of magical power.
It was an ability that was close to the power that allowed him to handle infinite magical power if his mental power was sufficient even with only minute magic.
A ray of light pulsing above Veronica’s head changes her tone.
The power that dwells in her body is the power of origin magic.
The raging sword that Leon had bestowed on her fell on Steve with a mass of hundreds of tons.
However, Steve’s Black Flame was also a formidable power.
Not only the flames that Veronica generated, but also the kinetic energy in her sword turned into black flame in real time, and the speed at which Veronica’s sword fell slowly slowed down.
But,
“Woo!”
Steve’s limits were close.
It was difficult for Veronica to absorb the flames that covered the world and protect herself, but even the magical powers she possessed were being sucked into Veronica.
In addition to that, it’s a sword strike with such unbelievable power.
Moreover, no matter how strong Steve’s power was, gravity could not overcome it.
No matter how much the kinetic energy contained in Veronica’s sword was absorbed and absorbed, her sword, which had enormous mass, continued to fall toward Steve by gravity.
As long as gravity does not disappear, Veronica’s sword will continue to fall towards Steve, and unless Steve’s magical power and mental power are infinite, he cannot endure it forever.
Steve blocked the sword with one hand and extended the other hand to release the black flame he had collected so far to Veronica, but the dark flame was engulfed in the flame of light and disappeared as it was.
Because it wasn’t just Steve who was able to absorb the opponent’s fire.
If it was made of magic, Veronica could burn it all.
checkmate.
Eventually, when Steve’s black flame, which reached the limit, disappeared, Veronica’s sword fell on Steve’s shoulder.
“Aww——!”
The broken arm flaps off the floor.
But for a moment, the electric charge that had stayed in the nervous system of the arm that had fallen off disappeared, and the arm that had lost all its life drooped and Steve fell down on his knees with him.
There was no more magic left in the circle, and there was no mental strength left to fight Veronica.
“Why the hell…?”
Born into the 4th generation of a mage family in the Philo Kingdom,
He was the second in the line of succession of the Marquis family,
He sold his soul to a demon and obtained his power,
To the poor people who don’t even know where they came from, the half-poon who has been polluted with magic and turned into a half-demon, the maid who serves as the master of Leon, who is only the bastard,
He couldn’t understand why he was defeated.
“You are just wrong.”
“what?”
At Veronica’s words, Steve rolled his eyes and looked at Veronica, who was pointing the sword at him.
But even with those fierce eyes, Veronica’s gaze was just cold.
“Strength is just a means to obtain freedom. But you made it your goal in itself to acquire power. Greater power, more powerful magic, higher status. He was blinded by that purpose and missed the opportunity to choose true freedom and to make precious choices.”
And Veronica continued.
“I sympathize with your life.”
At best, having been born into your master’s family, you missed the chance to hold hands with him.
“How dare you, such a maid from the poor…!”
Steve convulsed and ran towards Veronica, but Veronica played the sword lightly and slapped her cheek with the blade.
Whoops—!
That was the end of it.
Steve fainted and fell to the floor, leaving a long scar on his cheek.
Leon said looking at him.
“Dice.”
[Nyan.]
“Eat it.”
[Are you going to eat?]
Dice rushed to Leon’s command, bitten the dwindling demon’s horn, and sucked in Steve’s soul.
With him, the power of darkness that dwells in Leon.
“veronica. crimson authority.”
“Yes.”
Leon, who received the bright red sheath from Veronica, closed her eyes and focused, synchronizing the relic with the soul.
The power of the Fire God that absorbs waves of all things and converts them into kinetic energy of particles.
It was reinterpreted as the opposite power of darkness and absorbed as a part of the body.
“Now, let’s go back to the guys. No matter how much you defeated a first-class warrior, Steve would be in a lot of trouble.”
“Yes.”
Then it was simple.
With the joining of Leon and Veronica, the first-class warriors held by Daniel and Cindy were subdued at once.
The rest of the second-class warriors were quickly organized by Daniel and Cindy.
The location of the dungeon core was roughly grasped.
You must have defeated the Demon King of Fear, the boss of the dungeon, if you destroy the dungeon core, you can immediately exit the dungeon, but there were still many giant dragons alive here.
Even if those bastards were to be liberated from the human world, it would be quite difficult.
After taking a short break to recover his mental strength, Leon immediately started cleaning up the dungeon.
He even cleaned up the three remaining first-class warriors, and subjugated all the third and fourth-class warriors who run the Temple of Fear.
Convinced that there were no more living and breathing creatures left in the dungeon, Leon finally found the dungeon core and smashed it.
And the Altar of Rewards that appears.
On top of that was a bottle of potion.
However, the divine power felt from the potion was unusual.
If pure faith was rectified into a liquid, I wondered if it would be a potion of that type.
“But drink it knowing what it is.”
[The potion is an object called Shinju (神酒).]
Leon looked up at the sky, frowned at the voice of a pure woman resonating in his head.
“Who is it?”
[Nice to meet you. Guardian Leon. My name is Prime.]
“Guardian?”
[no. We have created a new name for your being. That’s the Guardian.]
Guardian by adding the suffix ian to God, which means God.
Can I interpret it as a newcomer?
The reason why it was made as a synonym for the guardian, which means guardian, was that the unique naming sense of the gods who protect mankind was applied.
More than that.
“If it’s Primiti, are you saying she is Primiti, the goddess of the sea, one of the Seven Gods?”
[That’s right. I am Primiti, the goddess of the sea.]
“I heard that the gods consume a lot of karma to talk to humans? That is why I can leave only a few short words to the Pope and the saints who have great faith and blessings.”
At that, Primiti let out a small laugh.
[Because you are no longer human.]
“Am I not human?”
[no. He must be human, but he must be said to be a person who transcends human beings. Guardian, a newcomer is a name with that meaning. You are a being who has achieved the divine status equal to our gods. You don’t need a lot of karma to talk to you.]
It’s not much, but it seems that karma is consumed.
Premier said that Leon was the same level as them, but is Leon still a bit inferior?
Of course, that alone was surprising enough.
It’s seven gods.
Creator of this world.
Compared to them, he was a god of a slightly lower level, and Leon was once again moved by the state he had achieved.
[We’ve always been looking forward to talking to you.]
“why?”
[Because you are a singularity that even our fate has not foreseen. I was wondering why the heck is it that only you can break the law of causality and create a new destiny with your own hands.]
This made sure
Of course, up until now, Leon has confirmed it several times.
It was not the Seven Gods who brought Leon back.
Primiti’s words now were words that turned Leon’s hypothesis into certainty.
But Leon hesitated to answer.
Leon’s return from the future was Leon’s greatest secret.
Maybe Veronica is a little suspicious.
In the world of the past, not here, Leon cursed and killed his mother, but Veronica knows well that Leon’s mother is still alive today.
But except for her, no one would have dared to imagine.
The act of revealing that secret to the gods had no choice but to be a little cautious.
Is that so?
Leon looked around a bit.
“Do the Seven Gods have the ability to reincarnate a human being and that human soul into another world?”
[…a different world?]
“A world of civilization where humans do not feel magical power and science, not magic, has developed.”
[no. Even if there are other gods like us and they created another world, there is no way for us to interact with them and have a conversation.]
“I came from that world. A world in which human beings have reached the end of seeking the truth and the laws of all things.”
[That’s… surprising. Human beings have reached the truth of the universe. Do all the humans in that world have the same abilities as you?]
Well, in terms of simple knowledge, there were many scientists who were better than Leon.
However, in the depth of his studies, Leon was as good as cheating.
He had already known the existence of magic through his past life, and by reinterpreting magic through science, he was able to explore secrets that ordinary scientists could not know.
Even if a modern quantum physicist suddenly reincarnated on the Radiant Continent, the chances of being able to wield magic like Leon would be remarkably low.
Leon shook his head, and Primiti let out a very small sigh of relief.
What did that relief mean?
Before Leon could organize his thoughts, Primiti asked another question.
[Then, were you reincarnated here with the help of the gods of that world?]
well that too.
“I felt no trace of the gods in that world.”
Maybe there are gods who created that world on the modern earth as well.
However, the gods of that world did not interfere with the human world, whether they respect free will or just laissez-faire principle.
Maybe it’s a world created by the laws of pure nature, where there is no such thing as a god.
However, Leon’s reincarnation is different.
Because it was obviously an artificial event made by someone’s will.
A being who made Leon learn the science of the modern Earth and returned time to the right time to learn magic.
“I doubt the existence of a god with greater power than you, the Seven Gods. Maybe there is a god with more power than the Seven Gods in this world?”
At that question, Primiti remained silent for a moment.
[Right now, the world’s order is governed by the wind god, Flopia. But then who the hell created our order? A being who gave us order so that the spirits of our Seven Lords can have meaning and create the world. Perhaps you were brought here by the true Creator who made us.]
[Meow.]
[···Oh.]
Dice suddenly interrupted Primiti’s explanation.
[The spirit…?]
“It’s an artificial spirit I made.”
[That spirit, although weak, has awakened the divine nature.]
Dice is divine?
The very existence of the Hagiya spirit is a being made from fragments of the power wielded by the gods on the earth.
Leon analyzed the existence of such spirits to create Dice, and so far Dice has been getting stronger by absorbing the souls of various demons.
Lyon, who is connected to Dice and soul, can also wield numerous powers under the influence, so it would not be strange if Dice had attained a divine deity.
[Slowly, the karma allowed for me is coming to an end.]
“therefore? What kind of potion does this thing called Shinju have?”
[You can think of it as an elixir that alchemists speak of. Our gods can make alcohol by forming faith, and by sharing it, we can borrow each other’s powers. Well, in most cases, it’s just used for preference.]
Elixir?
The Elixir that the alchemists speak of is a potion that creates an impeccable life.
[The potion was made with my divine power. Drink it and you will never grow old. It’s not immortal, but the fact that your body and mind become stronger and you don’t age will be of great help to you who were born as a human. Please think of it as a gift of good will to you by the Seven Lords.]
Leon looked at Shinju and Elixir with a new look.
It’s an elixir of fire.
If the powers of the world find out, they will risk war to get it.
Of course, Leon had no intention of revealing the existence of this potion to the world.
Without hesitation, he pulled the stopper from the glass bottle and poured the wine into his throat.
