Comprehensive: Beginning with the Killer Queen

The position of the devil in the Christian phase is vacant.

Roland was surprised at first.

Although the demons have all entered the realm of gods and reached the pinnacle of transcendent existence, this does not mean that there is no difference in the phases or magical powers of their corresponding realms.

However, because the demon's requirement is to transcend the universe and phase by himself and make himself the source of the road, this slight difference has almost no effect.

After all, it makes no sense to compare infinity to infinity.

Unless they are madly weakened or even divided, it would be possible to see some insignificant clues.

Therefore, the fact that there is no devil in Christianity seems strange no matter how you look at it.

You know, in the world of Toaru Majutsu no Index, magic and religious mythology are closely connected.

In theory, the original magicians used the illusions condensed by faith to manipulate the earth veins or phase energy, thus creating or transforming religious phases.

The idol theory of later magicians is based on this premise.

Therefore, the degree of spread of beliefs and fantasies cannot determine the strength of the phase, but it can at least serve as a relatively reliable reference.

With such a huge phase as Christianity, magicians will inevitably have in-depth contact with its concepts and techniques, whether they like it or not.

In this process, there will always be magicians with demon god qualifications or lucky people who find or obtain the qualifications to embark on this path.

The Fire on the Right is an obvious example. Although it was born by chance, with its essence and power level, it is able to distort and change the phase to a certain extent in pursuit of the divine realm.

Not to mention Aleister, whose magic name is beset666. His plans and even many of his concepts are full of biblical style. He even thinks that the demons are just 8=3 in the level of the Tree of Life after crossing the abyss, and has always had an inexplicable contempt for their nature.

After all, although the demons are called gods, they are not necessarily perfect.

After practicing magic to the extreme and crossing the abyss, it is natural that Aleister would feel disgusted if he arrogantly or rashly used the word "God" to describe himself.

Referring to these two ready-made examples and the battle with Euthinus, Roland finally got the answer that was incredible but could only be explained in this way.

"——Christianity is one of the phases that originally existed in this world."

Roland smiled slightly and whispered, "The reason why it didn't produce a demon god is not because no one covets its power, but because they can't do it."

Just like Aiwass, a life that is naturally produced by the physical phase, the Christian phase is also one of the most basic elements of the Toaru Majutsu no Index universe.

It is because it existed first that the myth with a certain authenticity was derived.

It is precisely because of this innate nature that the path it represents always points to the highest point, the beginning of creation.

To take this path, one must possess the nature of the Trinity at the stage of crossing the abyss. To do this, one must possess power comparable to that of the demons before crossing the abyss, and also be able to do things that they cannot do.

The idea of ​​possessing more than one type of omnipotent power before becoming a demon god is too bizarre and arrogant.

In the past, most of those who wanted to climb the path of the Crusader Demon God did so out of helplessness or out of self-confidence, and ignored such warnings and continued forward.

Humans make up stories, and real records will gradually deviate during transmission.

Today, there are various interpretations of the original text, many contradictory stories, and different perceptions of the identity of God. This is the result of the backlash of the religious phase caused by the reverse inference of the idol theory by those who already have the power to change the phase and try to climb this thorny road.

So what was their final outcome?
The still vacant position of the devil in heaven and the large and small sects within Christianity are the self-evident answers.

The goal set was too ambitious and lofty, but the Crusader phase did not surpass the universe, and the guide was just a ball of light without self-will. Allowing the Right Fire with the power of the Son of God to be born was already their limit.

This is why the Christian phase is so powerful, but there is no demon god.

"On the other hand, if someone can break this paradox, then so-called orthodoxy, cause and effect, or fate will have no restrictions on him."

Roland's pupils turned bright red.

The phase of the heavens has been distorted by a virus called Gabriel, causing Michael to fail. When the Beast of Apocalypse holds up the crown, the will of the Holy Spirit is completely restored.

Almost at the same moment, the right hand of God of Right Fire, which was originally nailed but still flickering, suddenly became dim.

The flesh and blood of the substance seemed to be weathered, turning into ashes and flying away in cracks that emitted golden light, revealing its magnificent essence.

"Are you trying to usurp the throne of God by seizing my power?" Right Fire stared at Roland and said with gnashing teeth, "Blasphemer, you are worthy of being the world-devouring beast that blasphemes everything."

"Thank you for the compliment." Roland tilted his head, a smile without any tension on his face. "So, do you want to continue to witness this great scene, or run away like a stray dog? Anyway, you can't stop me, and I'm not interested in you since you've lost your usefulness."

The Fire on the Right was stunned for a moment, and looking at Roland's calm expression, he realized that this might not be a joke.

After humiliating him and seizing his essence, whether to kill him was actually a non-essential matter. After all, even in his heyday, his strength was nothing to Roland, let alone now.

This is why the Right Fire did not call Roland a thief but a usurper.

He had many deficiencies in his magical attainments, but the intuition generated by this body born of Christianity had already told him that this plan was almost certain to succeed.

But because of this, the fire of hatred in Youfangzhihuo's heart burned even more fiercely.

Roland, who had already mastered the power of the Trinity, was now surrounded by countless lights that were like fireflies flying in the wind.

Obviously, he hadn't changed, and he still carried that indifferent cruelty, but now he exuded a sense of kindness.

Such pure and chaotic evil, yet filled with holiness.

The extreme contradictions are perfectly blended together, forming a cycle like a circle.

To the Fire on the Right, Roland's existence was like the incarnation of God walking on earth. Just by looking at him and recognizing him with the eyes, one would feel trembling and reverence from the bottom of one's heart.

There is even a faint sense of sweet joy, as if one has gotten what one wants.

Youfang Zhihuo clenched his only remaining fist and struggled to pull the corners of his angry mouth.

"——I can do this kind of thing!"

The reason he pursues power is to save the world, and this desire is the reason that supports his actions.

The eyes of the right fire were filled with blood.

"I will never admit that I was defeated by a guy like you!"

"I am the real savior, and none of you are!"

He roared and stretched out his hand, and the unextinguished residue on his right shoulder gushed out, causing the invisible yet heavy outline to stir the atmosphere again.

After losing his right hand that served as a stabilizer, his strength had become difficult to control, and during the locking process, violent aftermath dissipated.

But this action suited him just fine.

Having reached this point of desperation, the fire on the right no longer cared about anything else.

At this moment, he was not attacking Roland, but the world itself.

Since we have just locked onto Roland and made the Holy Right frozen, we will completely destroy the world he exists in and end the battle in this way. Even if this guy wins, he won't be able to escape unscathed!

Everything in this old world will be buried by itself at the end of the new era!

"If it were the original world, this possibility wouldn't be impossible."

Roland shrugged noncommittally.

"However, since you have offered it to me, I will just clean it up."

Faced with the oppressive force covering this world, Roland did not activate the Crown of Ten to erase it, but just smiled playfully.

If the ITEM team had seen this, they would probably have looked at the Fire on the Right with pity.

No one knew better than them how bad Roland's taste was with this expression.

"So, just disappear with your resentment, after all..." Roland raised his right hand calmly.

"——I am the savior."

Such words are like adding fuel to the fire of the right wing, which is already desperate.

But at this moment, the fire in Youfangzhihuo's heart was not burning fiercely.

Because he no longer had the energy to even have this emotion.

All he could see was the hand of light that slowly stretched out from Roland's right shoulder and then overlapped with it.

The nature of this light is exactly the same as the outline on his right shoulder at this moment.

That is the power that can reproduce all the miracles of Christianity.

That is the right hand that contains the power to save the world.

That is the symbol of the reincarnated Son of God.

"Divine Right?"

The fire on the right murmured to itself, its eyes somewhat dazed.

This is very similar to the scene when he usually releases his power.

But the specifications are not at the same level at all.

The Fire on the Right could clearly feel that, unlike the twisted mass of light on his right shoulder in the past, the Sacred Right at this moment carried a dreamy aura that was inconsistent with reality.

It looks very much like a human hand, but has an incomprehensible perfection, like a gem that shines after being polished.

No, it's not polishing at all. This is what the Divine Right should really look like.

Its previous distorted appearance was only because it was in his hand, so it looked like a pearl covered in dust.

The moment he realized this, Right Fire's expression was completely distorted by pain and anger.

"Kill you! I will definitely kill you!"

In the intense emotions, the outline of his right shoulder also swelled like a blown-up balloon.

But in front of the light of the Divine Right, it was like the stars that automatically shrank back when encountering the sun, leaving no trace.

Amidst the dull sound like thunder, Roland calmly waved his hand.

——The next moment, a dazzling hand of the same proportion as his right hand, but even larger, like that of a god, descended from the sky and slapped the fire on the right into a spinning top.

It's as easy as slapping a mosquito to death.

However, this time, the fire on the right failed to resist as stubbornly as last time. After briefly turning a few circles, his body turned into tiny points of light and was completely annihilated into the void.

But the changes don’t stop there.

It was a scene that seemed like going back in time.

The sea and Academy City, which had been in ruins due to the previous battle, suddenly returned to their original state without even a trace of process.

It was as if an invisible hand had shifted the gears of the world and modified the parameters directly in the background.

Under the night sky, the light of the moon and stars once again shone down, making the sea surface sparkle.

Roland stood quietly on the shore, not in a hurry to leave, and watched the scene of peace and tranquility.

"finished?"

A sudden voice interrupted Roland's thoughts.

He turned his head and looked at the golden water spaniel walking towards him.

"Kihara brain stem."

Before the other party began to introduce himself, Roland read out the other party's name.

"Aleister's messenger, what can I do for you?"

The expression on Kihara's face suddenly fell as he was wearing a mechanical device and trying to pretend to be just an ordinary golden retriever with a loudspeaker.

He squatted on the ground, took out a cigar from his bag with the mechanical arm behind him, lit it, and started smoking it.

"It's really rude to read my mind as soon as you meet me. Aleister installed the Dream Maker on me..."

"It's unfair to target me. The model of the Dreamer in your mind is very advanced. It has surpassed the version sold in the market, and is even comparable to the internal version of the Blue Dream Organization. Without the final realm, even 990,000 horses can't read your mind."

Roland glanced at the strange scene of the golden retriever holding a cigar, but didn't pay much attention.

As one of the most successful figures in Kihara, a symbol of the scientific family, and an assistant and even a safety valve recognized by Aleister, it is not surprising that he can do such a thing.

"That is to say, the ultimate realm measured in trillions actually exists. It seems that I should also learn about magnetic field rotation."

A golden retriever said that he wanted to learn how to rotate magnetic fields. Such a scene would shock many people, not to mention in Academy City, even in the Sea Tiger World.

But neither the man nor the dog thought there was anything strange about this.

"Adding magnetic field rotation to the magic-driven armor is a natural combination," Roland nodded. "Since you, as an envoy, have this attitude, it seems that Aleister is determined to follow me to the end?"

"After all, you resisted the temptation of the demon god and chose to stand at the final step. As a fellow, Aleister will naturally choose you who has more hope."

"I chose to stop at the threshold of the demon god simply because I could step out at any time, but deeper reasons stopped me."

Roland said frankly.

If he did not leave this world in time after becoming a demon, this universe with many overlapping phases might be directly blown up by him. In addition, now is not the time to face the demons hiding behind the scenes, so Roland stopped temporarily.

However, even if there was no threat from the demons, he would not take this step forward.

Although the demon god is only a stage of life, it is enough to make up for Roland's possibilities and injuries and go a step further.

In this situation, the apostle of the Sixth Supreme Heaven would probably wake up directly, as he didn't want to go through the chase and escape situation again.

"Thoughts are not important, action is the best attitude. You did stop and intend to continue to face the demons as planned. For Aleister, this is enough."

After hearing what Roland said, Kihara sighed softly.

"His bad habit is that he seems very rational at first glance, but in fact he always wants to solve problems with emotions."

"I see," Roland understood everything. "The reason why Aleister didn't show up was because he took advantage of the moment when the demons' attention was attracted by the fluctuations I caused to collect data?"

"That's right, so from now on, you are the acting chairman of Academy City."

Kihara's brain stem swung its tail back and forth. "Although the daily operation of the building without doors and windows is in charge of the program, the matters related to the plan still need your decision, so I came here."

Roland was slightly startled.

Although they are allies, he and Aleister have always had parallel plans. He didn't expect that Aleister would reveal his entire plan to show his sincerity.

"So, what am I going to do?"

"Aleister has already handled the main stages by himself. The rest just needs to be finished. It's very simple."

Kihara looked at Roland seriously.

"Anyway - let's conquer the world first." (End of this chapter)
