Comprehensive: Beginning with the Killer Queen

"Pfft-"

If the matter in this deep space could exist for a long time, we would be able to see the center of the two fangs of the snake, and blood would be gushing out from the narrow wound like a tide.

Even though the current environment cannot create such an intuitive scene, it is still terrifying enough.

…It was a scene like a mirage.

It was as if the huge blood vessels of the mountains were deeply cut, and black smoke like boiling steam flowed out.

They spread out like ripples on water, and under the huge impact force, the injuries were further aggravated.

In just a blink of an eye, the rolled flesh and blood deformed slightly and curled up.

The Sixth Heavenly Snake felt the intense pain coming from its mouth, and the panic in its eyes could not be stopped at all - the container created by the principle of Mara, the overbearing principle that could crush all things that were not mine with its power, actually had no effect?

But now is not the time to wonder why.

Looking down at the tiny thing under his feet, the twisted giant snake hissed and tightened like a bowstring. As the muscles all over the body exerted force one by one, the flames that soaked the whole body erupted like a falling asteroid.

Suddenly, the body of the Sixth Heaven Snake raised high again, casting an unknown shadow.

Roland raised his eyelids slightly, not moved by the strange scene in front of him, and raised his hand again with an incredibly calm movement.

The next moment, he suddenly swung his arms down.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, no one would have believed that such a simple action could contain such unimaginable power.

Suddenly, an invisible sharp light overshadowed everything.

Now that the Sixth Heaven Serpent has freed itself from all restrictions, it cuts through the numerous barriers before it with greater speed than a divine strike.

Infinite scales that can crush the flesh and bones of the universe... and armor forged from the vessel of Mara.

Despite the experience of the first failure, because it could only respond passively, even though the Sixth Heaven Snake's pupils were wide open, it still could not avoid being cut by the sword light.

Amid the extremely compressed explosion sound, it arched its body and barely avoided the second slash that came along, leaving only a narrow bloody wound piercing its heart.

If it had been before, the Sixth Heaven Serpent would have been furious and would have continued to overwhelm everything with his rage and authority.

Its style is to ignore insignificant details and only pursue the final result, but now, it can't divert its attention from its own wounds.

The Sixth Heavenly Snake quietly looked at the smiling Roland and couldn't help swallowing.

That texture...

Is it metal or the law condensed into substance?

The state of the wound allowed it to capture some clues.

Only the tampering with the laws can shake its infinity, and only the feeling of being cut by matter can explain its sensations.

The fact that the mouth still hadn't recovered proved that this was not an illusion.

In other words, that sharp feeling like a blade is not an illusion.

Just now, a sword had indeed cut open its head, and Roland's posture was not just a casual grip, but he was actually holding something.

But since it is a tangible substance, why doesn't it show any shape?

But if it is an invisible substance, why can it survive destruction?

Although he gained invincible power by using his own power as a battery for the theory of Po Xun, things born from polluted land cannot be polluted a second time, so the mind of Chaos, the Sixth Heavenly Serpent, did not improve.

If it was Aleister or Coronzon, they would be able to understand the mystery just by taking a look.

Therefore, after his thoughts raced for several seconds, until Roland's arm swung down again, the Sixth Heaven Snake suddenly realized that the answer was right in front of him.

That is both the individual and the whole.

That is both the whole and the individual.

Its personality can never be described using units other than infinity, nor can its existence be defined using the concept of the self.

"Infinite universe?"

Nephthys pronounced the word subconsciously.

no way.

Sora swung his arm downward, in complete contrast to the divine strike, with a bright and clear sharp light, and the surrounding fallen fire that swayed like a sun flame, distorted and blurred, like an illusion but with a clear dividing line.

Although it was just speculation before, when these signs were combined together, the existence of the sword seemed to be obvious.

The scarlet fire of annihilation clung to it like a maggot on the tarsus, but it was unable to devour the formless, and instead outlined its shape.

Watching this scene, Nephthys' eyes couldn't help but ripple with tears, and her body couldn't help but tremble.

This was not out of fear, but out of excitement at the miracle he was witnessing.

She knew exactly what this meant.

That is a realm that the demon gods today cannot reach at all.

That is the light of the mind that is powerful enough to break free from the weight of Mara's principles.

To materialize the infinite universe and the form of self is beyond common sense.

Yes.

Even as a demon god who understood everything and could even face the power of the Sixth Heaven Serpent, Nephthys could only have such thoughts.

Because if you don't think in this way and don't accept this answer, you can't explain everything that's happening now.

The silver-haired beauty frowned, her eyes revealing a hint of confusion and expectation about the unknown, but her emotions involuntarily relaxed.

She was sure that Roland might not be able to win now, but he would definitely not fail.

after all--

“It’s not even in the same dimension.”

Roland ignored the gentle and sweet voice behind him. He fixed his eyes on the Sixth Heaven Snake, which was shaking its head and brewing flames.

Stunned by the sudden change, it hadn't yet reacted and was just subconsciously dodging the Heart Armor that was being cut down again and again.

"Behead the emperor and banish this world!"

Challengers should do everything they can.

Roland had no manners at all, and with an attitude of kicking a drowned dog, he took the initiative to run towards the Sixth Heavenly Snake.

The pitch-black flames were endless, but they could not stop the sword light from advancing against the wind and waves.

And in this process, changes also suddenly come.

The originally colorless and dark void suddenly bloomed with an incomparably brilliant light.

Suddenly, a torrent of energy spread out from the intersection of time and space between the new world and the present world in the form of chains and vines.

The flaming lotus that had just pushed the new world aside was suddenly hit by a dazzling light that could compete with it.

In the real world on the other side of the intersection, because the new world that served as a barrier was on the verge of destruction, the vast white world was gradually swallowed up by the light.

Needless to say, this figure that looks like spread-out wings of light is the sword that will slash the emperor.

This magic sword born from Roland's heart has the special ability to transform mass into power.

——Go all out.

When Roland said this to Aiwass, there was no falsehood in his heart. From enemies, subordinates, to people who understood him, anything that could help him, he would take it into his hands without hesitation.

The world itself is no exception.

It is such a waste that the world of Magical Index, which can accommodate so many demons and make the Sixth Heaven Snake fall into a deep sleep, is just used as a battlefield in the background and destroyed in the aftermath.

So, it is better to turn it into your stepping stone.

The light of the heart that was linked to Roland's will sensed the master's determination and also made an excited clanging sound.

For the sake of the overall situation, from the very beginning, this seed forged by Roland's heart light was buried at the intersection of time and space, in order to be used at the critical moment.

After all, if they want to reverse the situation, the rare fuel of the Toaru Majutsu no Index universe must burn to the end in one breath, without the option of stopping.

Being able to support Roland in this way is of course great for killing the emperor, but in order to uphold his own value and honor as an armed force, he still has to fight to the death on the battlefield with his master!

"Huh, things still follow their owners..."

As if he felt helpless about the excitement of beheading the emperor, Roland chuckled and closed his eyes.

When he opened his eyes again, only awe remained in those bright red pupils.

"But, as you wish!"

"Let that idiot see how big the gap is between its accumulated weight and ours!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the brilliant wings of light expanded further, and the area and energy they covered far exceeded their previous scale.

Like the dawn rising from the horizon, the huge beam of light transformed from the formula of the world made everything within sight in this area become blurred as if burned.

At the same time, because of Roland's initiative to rush over, the Sixth Heaven Snake, which had been letting out a terrifying roar, finally reacted.

Driven by the anger that lingered throughout its body, its body crackled and crackled, and wrapped in the flames of corruption, it actually faced the beam of light head-on without dodging, trying to resist it with brute force.

However, the results were still as expected.

It's like two trains speeding towards each other at both ends of the railroad tracks.

With a huge roar, the beam of light that swept across the sky was indeed dispersed, but the force was mutual.

A huge dent suddenly appeared on the chest of the Sixth Heaven Snake, like a city gate that had been smashed open by the army with a battering ram.

The broken ribs were stuck in the blue-gray flesh and blood like a bunch of twisted branches. Deeper in the flesh and blood, one could faintly see the madly beating heart.

"Your inner light is a bit too extreme—"

Perhaps it was because the pain was too intense that it would make people feel numb, and the Sixth Heaven Snake finally regained some of his rationality.

Although it is a reckless and cruel beast, its superior birth still gives it innate knowledge beyond its weight.

Even the prototype of the simulated star creation map, which should not exist, was recognized by it.

Because the opponent was not spared from the sweep of Po Jun's principles at that time, it relaxed its vigilance and forgot that although it did not sublimate into a complete form, its existence is a ticket to the multiverse.

If nurtured properly, the potential of the simulated star creation map may even be a primer for a glimpse into the levels above.

Therefore, even if it is just a prototype, what Roland lacks is only the accumulation of time. In terms of magnitude, the opponent can use additional accumulation, shields and health bars to temporarily send the magnitude into that field.

That's why it gets hurt, just like stabbing a red-hot iron sword into an ice cube. As long as the ice cube is large enough, the heat of the sword will cool down before cutting it.

This is not because the theory of Mara is not effective, but because the Sixth Heaven Snake, as a borrower, is unable to display the mystery of the theory. The power it can infinitely stimulate is limited to this limit.

Just as Roland said, as someone who had grown from a weakling to where he is today through his own strength, compared to it which was born with absolute power, even if they were standing at the same starting line, there was an unbridgeable gap between them.

For example...whether there is a way forward.

The Sixth Heaven Snake felt that the situation was not good.

Because of a momentary defeat and anger, he gave up his own infinity and entered the container of reason that completely abandoned the roundabout tactics.

If this continues, it might really die.

However, who would have thought that even though Roland possessed the Eternal Reincarnation, his desire for weapons would be so extreme?
Even though we have cheats that allow us to start over infinitely, we still treat life as a game that we cannot start over after playing and that we can only complete with one life.

This is the kind of thought that only a person of short-lived background would have.

"...?!"

Thinking of this, the Sixth Heaven Snake suddenly froze.
It suddenly realized that this inability to own reason and therefore to understand its essence and origin was exactly the reason why Roland laughed at it.

"But so what? I've already solved your mystery!"

The Sixth Heaven Snake's expression became increasingly gloomy, and he shook his head, with a fierce light flickering in his eyes.

"You have simply changed from a lamb to be slaughtered to a weakling holding a blade!"

"As long as you see through this, there is nothing to be afraid of. As an apostle of the Supreme Heaven, death has never been something I fear!"

That's right.

If it is an unknown that cannot be eliminated, the instinct of life may still cause it to waver.

But knowing that the worst outcome is death doesn't matter, and it's more relaxing this way.

——You just need to stab the opponent with the poisonous blade when he is trying to kill you.

"Yes, if I can't guarantee everything after I kill you, this outcome will be no different from a failure."

Roland said in a clear voice with a smile.

"But, after being resurrected, he was sealed in the dream by the throne, and from waking up with great pride to being beaten by the divine strike, he went from being an apostle of Po Xun who destroyed everything to a clown who was victorious even if they both perished."

"How can you be sure that this is not another beginning?"

Click.

The moment the words fell, the monster's angry roar resounded throughout the world.

Then, the heaven and earth began to tremble again.

It was as if a typhoon and an earthquake had struck at the same time, and the already terrifying size of the Sixth Heaven Snake was raised to another level.

Those wide-open eyes were covered with bloodshot cracks, as if they would fall out in the next second, just like a frog with its belly puffed up to expand its body but an empty stomach.

The speechless Sixth Heaven Snake could not find any words to refute and could only interrupt the conversation with a fearless charge.

"Exactly what I want!"

Roland was not annoyed when he didn't get a response.

Compared to just breaking down the mental defense, he prefers a two-pronged approach that causes pain to the body as well.

Moreover, there is enough time.

"The Sword of the Sky, engraved with the chronicles..."

Roland hummed.

At the same time, the Demon Sword that Devoured the World also began to rotate at an extreme frequency, allowing endless energy to fill the simulated star creation map, and the distance to that boundary was constantly approaching him.

The enormous power formed visible arcs of electricity around him. The next moment, dazzling light penetrated his palms and continuously overflowed outward, turning the upside-down universe upside down.

From wrapping everything, to being wrapped in Roland's palm.

——The devilish sword interwoven like dawn light galloped through the burning deep space.

"This moment is the perfect time!" (End of this chapter)
