“…Ugh!”
While talking to Pielot, Carla frowned and lowered her head.
“Why, why are you doing that?”
Pielot was embarrassed to see Carla suddenly in pain. Carla took a few deep breaths without answering.
“——Oh, it’s okay. I guess I was tired too. “I have a bit of a headache.”
“It looked quite painful. Are you really okay?”
“sure. “Compared to Mr. Pielot, this isn’t even a pain.”
“…You can’t ignore your own pain while looking at the pain of others.”
Carla responded to Pielot’s words, “Hehe, that’s right.” He laughed.
Carla raised her head again and said.
“Rest now. Mr. Pielot was good enough.”
“no. “I’ll get up now too.”
Pielot tries to get up completely from the bed.
Carla grabbed both of his shoulders.
“Don’t do that. “In my current condition, I will be a hindrance to Mr. Frontier.”
“…But, I have to tell the story about Satan to Senior Frontier.”
The Satan that Pielot saw in his dream.
It was too vivid to be a dream, and the face of Satan, something Pielot had never seen before, was clearly visible.
This is not an ordinary dream. Satan had something important to say. It seemed like he was about to become the king of demons.
Carla nodded.
“I’ll tell you. To Frontier. So, get some rest.”
“I’m the one who saw it in person, so if I want to convey it properly…!”
“Pielot.”
Carla’s serious eyes looked at Pielot.
“Don’t be impatient.”
“Ah…”
“Frondier and the others will have no problem. I understood what Mr. Pielot wanted to convey. “I’ll tell everything to Mr. Frontier, so don’t worry.”
Only then did Pielot relax the strength he was trying to get up.
In fact, he was not yet in shape to fight at all. It is a body that was pierced by an arrow and even accepted mana from another world. The priority now is to recover as much as possible.
“…All right. Please. “Mr. Carla.”
“Don’t worry.”
Carla smiled and stood up. After confirming that Pielot was lying calmly on the bed, I went out the door of the hospital room.
Then I walked down the hallway and looked around.
‘…There are no crows, but you never know where you might get caught.’
Kala, no, thought Athena, now possessed in Kala’s body.
‘This possession is probably the last. If I meet Frontier during this time, it will really be the end.’
For Athena, using the collar is not difficult.
What God gives to humans is fundamentally the same, whether it is divine power or a curse. Since I have already bestowed divine power on Kala once, it is not difficult to possess her as well.
The problem comes after possession.
The subject of possession has no memory of the period of possession. Just like Saleh, who was possessed by Odin.
So, when Athena possesses Kala and then returns to her as time passes, it feels like that much time has been cut off from Kala’s perspective. That feeling of discomfort cannot be ignored.
‘So there were two conditions for me to possess Carla.’
Either they made it so that Kala didn’t notice that she was possessed, or
even if she did, she couldn’t ask Frontier for help.
The first method is surprisingly not that difficult.
Because I can move while Carla is sleeping. All you have to do is move around her body while she’s sleeping, then turn her body around before she wakes up. Even if you feel a little tired, you won’t be able to tell that you’ve been possessed.
Athena used this method to give Charon information about the Frontier group.
‘Frondier senses the moment when a god or a devil appears to a human being. I don’t know the principle.’
A purple haze visible only to Frontier’s eyes.
Although it is originally visible only from the player’s perspective, Frondier can see the purple haze in this world as well.
‘But while it doesn’t appear, I don’t think we know whether there is a god or not.’
So even if Athena comes back to Kala, she won’t be detected unless she possesses her like she does now.
In other words, if I were possessed, I would definitely be caught, so I needed a moment when Frontier was not around.
So now.
Now that Kala and Frontier were far away from each other for their own purposes, this was Athena’s greatest opportunity.
‘Sorry, Frontier. But I have work to do.’
Athena left the hospital.
Originally, Kala was also a wizard skilled enough to be the head of Atlas. She had enough mana, and Athena was able to quickly raise her body into the air.
“I’m not really interested in the war between gods and demons, but on such an absurd scale.”
She turned around. In a straight line heading towards the capital.
“Impersonations of Hera and Aphrodite in this capital. “You can’t just leave them alone.”
What is more important to God than anything else is maintaining formality.
Hera and Aphrodite are clearly goddesses comparable to Athena. If the devil continues to impersonate them, even Athena’s rank will fall. Gods who are closely related to each other exert influence on each other.
Currently, Hera and Aphrodite have each given divine powers to humans, but both are on the Palind Continent. In other words, it is a situation where power cannot be used here.
Athena has no choice but to step forward.
‘…And somehow, as a god, I feel strange about the conflict taking place in the capital.’
A demon impersonating Hera, a demon impersonating Aphrodite.
A sight that makes the two of them fight among themselves over something so pointless as ‘beauty’.
The sense of discomfort felt by Athena, who was undoubtedly a complete outsider.
I feel like something started wrong.
“…Well, it will end with heavenly punishment.”
Athena heads to the capital with Kala’s body.
I have no intention of showing forgiveness or mercy to a devil pretending to be God.
Athena will kill them as soon as she sees them.
Even if the result is the starting point of war. Even if countless lives lie in death.
God’s priorities are as clear as the devil’s.
* * *
“Vishnu.”
Frontier still turns his eerie eyes towards Vishnu.
His gun-shaped fingertips are still pointed towards Vishnu, Elodhi.
[huh? What is it?]
Vishnu is still resting his chin in the form of Elodie.
The voice is full of composure. It’s as if Frontier’s life is completely out of reach.
“Answer what I ask.”
[Yes, whatever.]
It’s the exact same voice as Elodie, speaking with Elodie’s body. Even that fact displeases Frontier.
“The reason why I should believe what you say,”
Frondier’s life seems to fill the room and then crowd it out.
Now, Bael, who was more caught between them than Vishnu, became tense and his face hardened.
“Even if you believe it, why should I keep you alive now?”
It doesn’t take long for Frontier’s demonic power to take hold. Even if you create a pantemonium, you can finish it in less than a minute if you put your mind to it.
Frontier already recognizes Vishnu as a potential enemy. Elodie’s god is playing with Elodie’s body. There were so many reasons to kill that other reasons were secondary.
[Aha, you can say that as much as you want.]
However, Vishnu is relaxed.
[Answer to the first question. I was just being kind.]
“Good intentions?”
[okay. As I said, I’m just an information provider. Have you ever wondered how God goes to war with the devil? So I just answered it. And the fact that Athena was hiding it is pretty important information, right? As well as the fact that you can go back to Carla at any time. You don’t need me to give you a reason to believe. If you don’t want to believe it, just don’t believe it.]
Considering the circumstances, what Vishnu says now is probably almost true.
After meeting at Pantemonium, Athena was almost definitely defeated by Frontier. Therefore, it was natural that Frontier was no longer an object of control.
I never thought it would be possible to come back to Carla. Even if it were possible, I thought there was no way I would move without risking the risk of frontier.
‘The problem is why this guy suddenly appeared.’
Rather than doubting the information itself provided by Vishnu, Frontier doubts his intentions.
What is the intention of telling this timing and even directly possessing Elodie? What is Vishnu planning in the situation right before this war starts?
[And the second question.]
Vishnu said as if cutting off any further thoughts.
[You don’t need to save me.]
“What?”
[You don’t have to kill me because you don’t need to keep me alive, right?]
Vishnu’s smile deepens.
[Because you can’t kill me, you can’t kill me.]
“…Are you confident that you will win the Pantemonium?”
[Ahahaha. That’s not true. Frontier, you are surprisingly the type to deceive yourself.]
Vishnu laughed.
He says that smile is still mixed.
[You can’t hurt Elodie.]
Frondier’s words seem to pierce through the heart.
Vishnu said as if he was amused by Frontire’s appearance.
[I just saw it, so I understand. I can possess Elodie at any time. And you can get out at any time. As I said before, Elodie’s resistance is quite strong, so I can’t possess her for long. What would happen if you used the devil’s power in a situation like this?]
Frontier’s devil’s power clearly reaches even God. This is what I learned while dealing with Athena.
However, Athena at the time was looking down on Frontier and was not in a state of possession. Since it was Kala who activated the divine power, there was no way to avoid Frontier’s demonic power in the first place.
However, Vishnu now has control over Elodie’s body. If you have to, just return your body to Elodie.
[Of course, it would be difficult to replace Elodie with Elodie faster than you use the devil’s power. It’s unlikely. Is there a 1% chance of it being successful? In most situations, it will probably work out the way you want it to. Your demonic power will reach me faster than I can replace you with Elodie.] After
saying that, Vishnu spread his hands.
[Then do you want to try it? Believing that there is a 99% chance, you will use the power of the devil on me to make me leave. What do you think?]
“….”
Frondier’s fingertips are still pointing at Vishnu.
However, his demonic power was never activated.
[Ahaha. Look. You can’t kill me.]
Vishnu lowered his arms as if he had read the whole thing, or rather, as if it was not interesting.
[You cannot make that choice if there is even a 1% chance that Elodie will be in danger. And you can’t believe me when I say 1% in the first place, right? Because to you, my words are not ‘information.’]
To Frontier, information is important enough to determine the future situation.
The reason is simple. Because I don’t like unexpected events or accidents.
If he were alone, he might be able to handle even that, but Frontier is no longer alone.
The attitude of not wanting to sacrifice anything was especially noticeable during the war with Mangot. Instead of saving everyone, he sacrifices himself.
So far, that’s worked.
But what if he can’t be saved even if he sacrifices everything?
Or, if you don’t even give them a chance to sacrifice.
[That’s why I’m so thirsty for information. Whether it’s an enemy or an ally, I want to know everything they’re trying to do. Ahaha. On the outside, it may seem like everyone is following you and you are leading everyone, but if you look closely, you are actually serving everyone.] “….” Sigh, Frondier
lowered
his
hand.
The endless desire for life towards Vishnu gradually subsided.
Vishnu tilted his head at that.
[huh? I thought you would be angry. Surprisingly calm.]
“….”
Frondier did not answer.
He lowered his head and took a deep breath. As if he was going to shake it all off with that.
Then he turned to Vishnu and walked out of the store. Then, he retrieved the black cloth that was binding Andro.
The reason his anger disappeared was simple.
‘It’s true.’
Vishnu is correct.
He cannot kill Vishnu, and he has no more information to gain from Vishnu.
Since he didn’t know when Elodie would regain her body, Frondier had to move. First of all, is it a hospital? If Vishnu’s words are true, Kala would already be possessed by Athena.
Behind his back, Vishnu still raises his voice.
[That’s not what you call a colleague. Frondier.]
Frondier has heard so many curses so far.
Some of them were truly cruel words that made Frontier feel like he would be swallowed up in a curse.
However, Vishnu’s words, spoken in Elodie’s voice, are incomparable to anything that has come before,
[That is not a colleague—]
Kwaang!
A violent impact sound is heard momentarily.
Frondier was surprised and looked inside the store again.
Vishnu suddenly hit the desk with his fist.
No, that’s not Vishnu.
“…Sorry, Frontier.”
It was Elodie.
Before we knew it, Elodie had regained her body and was making her voice heard.
‘…She regained her body while God was speaking. Elodie’s resistance is exceeding God’s prediction.’
Frondier was surprised at the sight, but Elodie was not at all.
Elodie radiated an enormous amount of life and anger that made even Frondier nervous, and her gaze was focused on one place.
Those eyes are not looking anywhere.
If I had to say it, it was directed at herself.
she said
“Would you like to go first?”
“…Elodie.”
“Please do me a favor, Pron.”
Elodie spoke without moving her eyes at all, as if she was clearer than anyone else about what she was supposed to be looking at.
“I think we need some education.”
