Comprehensive: Beginning with the Killer Queen

In just a short moment, the demon of Cthulhu was completely wiped out and turned into nothingness without even ashes.

Nuada, whose mission was war, broke out in a cold sweat.

The Smoky Mirror, who is the Supreme Sun, has his braided hair rising into the sky.

The empress, who was still intoxicated by the wonderful taste of blood, also broke free from her half-asleep state and trembled like a frightened little animal.

They are all demons who can make any city or country in the world disappear with just a whim.

But precisely because of this, they showed such a shameful performance in the face of the facts before them.

Killed a demon with one strike.

No, using just one strike might be an exaggeration.

The punch Roland just threw was just to wipe out their attack. Otherwise, there was no way to explain why the blow that killed the demon god did not spread the slightest energy aftermath to the outside world.

In other words, the reason why the Cthulhu demon died was simply because it was within Roland's attack range.

This incredible conclusion, just describing it, will make people feel as if they are in a dream, let alone experiencing it in person.

"..."

Because she was mentally prepared that something was wrong, the gentle goddess Nephthys was able to maintain a certain degree of calm.

But from the uneasiness and surprise between her slender dark eyebrows, one can still see the excitement deep in her heart.

How did he do that?
Even under Roland's breathtakingly cold eyes, she couldn't control the confusion in her heart.

With the precedent of the abbot, Nephthys was mentally prepared for the possibility that Roland could kill the demon.

It would not be surprising if Roland gave up everything and used the explosion of the world or finally gave in and used the temptation of tickets to another world to cause internal division among the demons.

But now the other party is clearly under the constraints of internal and external troubles.

Moreover, even if Roland still has some cards in hand under such circumstances, there should still be some basic laws to abide by, right?

They are not magicians, incarnations of concepts or other low-level beings, but demons!

No matter how he compresses himself, the demon will still have infinite properties.

Even Roland shouldn't be able to do this so easily.

When Roland had tried to kill the Monk with his superior strength, even though he could not make up for the difference in power, the Monk still managed to hold on for half a round with his own essence, leaving behind an omen that all the demons could see.

But just over ten minutes later, the demon of Cthulhu was crushed to death by Roland like an ant.

Not to mention any signs, there wasn't even any room to provide them with support.

Nephthys felt a pang of fear when she thought about how she had approached Roland without fear because she still had the power to manipulate phases.

She did not take action on her own again, but chose to make protecting herself a priority.

The same was true for the other demons, who either overtly or covertly adopted defensive postures.

At this moment, the positions of invaders and defenders have been reversed.

But if you think about it carefully, this is not something difficult to understand.

When the abbot died, the emotions of most demons changed from doubt to anxiety. After Cthulhu's death, it was shown that this was not a coincidence, and this anxiety naturally turned into fear.

It was only because the demons had not truly died in a long time that they became so unscrupulous that they allowed Roland to attack them in order to entangle his mind.

When the long-forgotten feelings about death are recalled bit by bit in the cruel reality, this reaction is more like a matter of course.

They are just tired of playing, not tired of living.

However, Roland had no intention of taking action immediately.

He just looked at his palm thoughtfully, and when he found that there was no second wave of attack after a long time, he raised his head and waved to the frightened demons.

This simple and pure body language can actually work wonders in communication in certain situations.

Regardless of their origins, every demon god understood Roland's thoughts.

"You want us to attack together again?"

"What else?" Roland answered without hesitation: "I have lost interest in a single demon god. That doesn't count as a battle at all. It would be more direct to let you continue to attack together."

"At least this way, if you can't find any fun, you can save some trouble."

"After all, you are no longer qualified to be my enemy."

Although Roland's words were just a statement, his indifference, which was even greater than before, still made Smoke Mirror feel deeply humiliated.

He raised his head and roared like a demon whose head was cut off by the swordsman.

"Wu-Ah!"

By the end of the sound, it was almost like a wolf howling.

The blazing flames surrounded his body, gradually permeating his form.

"I didn't want to fight with this cursed honor at such a dangerous moment."

Smoke Mirror gnashed his teeth and looked at Roland: "But even if I die, I will not allow your insults!"

Suddenly, the mirror on his prosthetic arm suddenly appeared in the sky like a peacock's open feathers.

The entire person in the smoke mirror was embedded in the mirror surface, and the surrounding area was full of turbid, dark flames that seeped out like liquid.

Under his feet were many upright shadows of jaguars.

This is the same as the space in which the monk died of starvation during his own demonic ritual, and thus transformed into cause and effect, until it reaches a form similar in essence.

In Aztec mythology, although he is the supreme first sun, the Smoky Mirror has always been regarded as half a sun, either because he lost a foot or because he is the god of night.

He was even mocked by the feathered serpent god Quetzalcoatl and lost the battle for the throne, thus ending his rule.

Because of this, Smoke Mirror dislikes this attitude very much, and has always used the blazing and glorious Spear of Heaven as his trump card.

But when even its existence is being questioned, the Smoky Eyes, which has not yet resolved old grudges and has created new ones, no longer cares about such trivial matters.

The first person who eats the mushroom will not know whether it is poisonous or not, but he also has the courage.

The sight of someone abandoning his immortality and devoting all his energy to evolving his own body finally made Roland raise his eyelids slightly.

"Didn't I tell you...I have lost interest in individual demon gods."

Without even raising his hand, Roland's expression was calm and composed.

"After all, dealing with you is no fun at all. It's just a futile task."

In an instant, after the smoke mirror and the mirror surface were completely integrated, the surging darkness turned as red as blood, and the roaring thunder radiated fine cracks in the air.

As the rising light illuminates it, matter and phase begin to disappear.

It was as if the sky finally opened its pupils and began to judge everything in the world.

however--

The next moment, even deeper darkness descended upon all the demons.

Regardless of whether an attack was launched or not, regardless of what defensive measures were taken.

I can't hear anything, I can't see anything, I can't feel anything.

Nephthys had faced this darkness countless times in the phase known as the Hidden World, but she had never been as terrified as she was today.

Because at this moment, she couldn't even be sure of her own existence.

The only thing that could prove anything was probably this thought itself. After who knows how long it lasted, it was as if the switch of the world was turned on, and light and sound all poured into Nephthys's brain.

Without caring about the sudden attack from the enemy right in front of her, Nephthys instinctively checked her body and breathed a sigh of relief when she found that it was still intact.

Looking to the side, Nuada and the empress also looked frightened, but from the looks of it, they didn't seem to be in any serious trouble.

Even Roland, the most suspicious enemy, stood at the original coordinates as always, without moving a single step.

The only thing that changed was the long howl that suddenly stopped.

The smoke mirror that had just been shining brightly in the sky was suddenly held in Roland's hand.

The slender and white five fingers pierced into the head of the sun god like grabbing tofu.

After realizing what happened, the demons stood there in shock.

This is not because they lack self-control, but because everyone would show such an expression when faced with such a fact that goes against common sense.

Because the smoke mirror is still in full firepower.

In this state, he should be the embodiment of the unpredictable wind of fate and the sun of creation. His physical body is just an external manifestation, not a real weakness.

In this kind of battle where heaven and earth collide, there should only be two possibilities: death and survival.

After all, how could one demon god control the fate of another demon god?
But Roland held the head in his hand calmly, lifted the smoke mirror with one hand, lowered his head slightly, and looked down at the sun god who couldn't even make a sound.

During this process, the black and red demonic power on the smoke mirror attacked Roland like a violent storm.

But whether it was a single point breakthrough or full coverage, no matter how many times the experiment was repeated, even if Roland did not dodge or defend at all, it was still ineffective.

Yes, it is invalid.

It was not as simple as blocking or eliminating it, but the power of the smoke mirror suddenly lost its effect the moment it touched Roland, as if the game player encountered an NPC that could not be harmed.

"In the end what happened?"

Nephthys pursed her lips, her heterochromatic eyes filled with fear arising from the unknown before her.

It was clear that they had just discovered Roland's weakness due to their careful planning, causing the world to fall into irreversible collapse.

With this development, even if they cannot defeat Roland next, as long as they wait until the world is destroyed, these demons can regain all their strength and then use a long time to get what they want from Roland.

As a result, after just a few breaths, the battle situation suddenly collapsed.

At least they could see the death of the demon god Cthulhu, but when it came to the Smoke Mirror, they couldn't even understand how Roland controlled life and death.

But to Nephthys's surprise, the question she had asked earlier was answered the next moment.

“Stop time.”

The queen wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and grabbed the hem of her mini cheongsam in fear.

"Roland just stopped time. It might be because I sucked his blood. In the darkness just now, although it was very brief, I regained my vision for about two seconds."

"The smoke mirror was captured by his gravity and delivered to his door."

If it was teleportation, it is impossible that all the demons did not capture any image from the front.

At the same time as Nephthys regained consciousness, the inertia of the light of judgment in the sky was broken.

This is an incredible but reasonable answer.

Nephthys realized this as her majesty said this.

So, she was so shocked that she couldn't even speak.

What a joke!
Manipulating time is a privilege that only the demon has over others, just like manipulating phases and immortality.

It's fine when it comes to other people, but when it comes to them, this non-exclusive power should be equal.

After all, time is just a kind of logic. It may trap the creatures in the river, but for the people standing at the end of the river bank, it will at most wet their shoes and socks.

Unless... Roland has completely mastered the power that surpasses theirs.

But no matter how much she rejected this possibility in her heart.

Nephthys understood that if this was the basis, everything that had happened before could be explained accordingly.

If it is really beyond the ability to interfere with the demon's ability to manipulate time, then naturally its immortality can also be invalidated.

And if even this can be achieved, it is only natural that the power of the smoke mirror is negated.

But if this is the case, why does this world still exist?
Even though Roland's trillion-degree fireball that was patrolling the universe delayed the time a little, Nephthys could still feel that the end of the universe was still being oppressed by Proserpina's ritual.

If Roland used his full strength, the other party and Chimera would definitely destroy the world directly.

But why is there no movement yet?

"That's because I didn't use the full power of the demon god."

Suddenly, a cold voice sounded, causing Nephthys' body to tremble. She subconsciously stepped back and looked at Roland warily.

Just being stared at by those eerie red eyes made Nephthys Chocolate's skin break out in a cold sweat.

It was a crazy sweat mixed with fear and joy.

"impossible……"

"Nothing is impossible. The emotional thinking born from clustering will make you think carefully about everything, but thinking too much can sometimes lead to misunderstandings."

Roland smiled slightly.

"When you entered the universe by dividing your power, you should have been aware of this possibility."

"Although both before and after the use of the spell are infinite, the Demon God in his prime is infinite beyond the limit, and after using the spell it becomes the infinity of the universe. Nephthys, what do you think is the difference between the two?"

Nephthys' mind was in a mess.

Confusion, madness, uneasiness, all kinds of emotions intertwined in her mind.

But the demon's processing ability still made her immediately realize the difference between the two.

"……reality."

"Yes, reality, what can be depicted by the universe must be infinite and based on reality."

"So, although you still have infinite immortality and great power after being weakened, you have lost your original ability to manipulate the phase."

Roland nodded calmly, acknowledging the answer.

"But unlike you who were stuck with convenient tools like Infinity and Phase from the beginning and couldn't even touch the basics, I, who come from another world, have the ability to modify the specific details of Phase."

"Although I cannot escape this distorted overlapping phase and will be restricted, unlike you who cannot germinate at all, the seeds of my realm did not germinate simply because the soil is not suitable."

"...!"

For Nephthys, these gentle words were like a thunderclap exploding in her heart.

Her face turned pale and she looked at Roland in disbelief.

"When the right soil, environment, and nutrients are present, it won't be hard to understand why the seed will germinate, right?"

"Just like you are delaying the destruction of the universe, I am also waiting."

Roland stared at Nephthys, his voice full of teasing laughter.

"Waiting for the moment when this fruit called "Complete Formula Solver" is completely digested by me." (End of this chapter)
