I, Tokisaki Kurumi, a Wanderer

"Miss Tokisaki...you...are you interested in sitting on the throne of the only god?"

···

The enemy is a god, a god who stands behind the chessboard and controls the battle situation.

It is almost impossible and meaningless to defeat them head-on.

If Endless War had any meaning, it would have ended many years ago.

But...what if induced?

Induce the war to the end and end it all.

Is the condition for the coming of the Star Cup really to kill all the other gods and leave only one?

Rick asked Kusan.

The "Star Cup" is a "conceptual device" created by the gods in order to limit the power of the gods - the ability to exercise magic of the level of creation of races to only one person.

It is impossible to make a device that can control all the powers of the gods with the power of the gods, because the so-called one god is an existence that can control all powers including the gods.

The power that can be mastered is far greater than the sum of the powers of the gods, and it is impossible to create a power of more than "eleven" with the power of the gods - "ten".

But...the gods were born from the corridors of the spirits, so were the spirits, and so were the created races.Therefore, the power of the "planet itself" is far greater than the power of all the gods.

···

Rick piled all the chess pieces representing all races in the center.

"What if... we run through the 'Elf Corridor'? "

"As long as it runs through the core of this planet - the elf corridor, the power released will definitely surpass all the gods."

"That kind of power must be able to summon the Star Cup."

"When the time comes... I just hope you can promise a different future."

-

Sure enough... Kurumi looked at Rick, this guy really is the protagonist.

"No... I'm not interested in things like star cups at all." Kurumi said with a smile.

Rick's heart seemed to be clenched violently, and he needed the strength to push the chessboard.

"That kind of thing, just keep it for yourself and make a wish."

"I'm just a traveler."

"Sa... But, does this game seem to be very interesting?"

···

Kurumi held Rick's outstretched hand.

"How did you say that sentence? Make an oath to the will?"

"No... Now it's an oath to the common will." Rick pushed away all the pieces with a smile.

Rick moved the white king away from a corner of the Lucia continent on the map.

--this is us.

He stared at the crown - the king.The weakest piece is the most important piece, the piece that ends when killed.

We shouldn't exist, Rick muses.

Don't kill anyone, don't let anyone die.

Means, intelligence, fraud... whatever it is, as long as this ridiculous game is over.

There are both rules and victory conditions.

In front of the gods, this planet is really just a game board, so let the ants surprise the gods a little bit.

The map is already filled with white chess pieces representing various races, and in the center, the black king.

That's where the "Spirit Corridor" is located.

Rick stretched out his hand to the black king, but at this moment, he saw another slender hand pressed on the black king.

"Are you really willing? Give up the throne of the One God." The hand wrapped in the dark shadow picked up the chess piece and shook it gently, his voice was a little hoarse, a little immature, and unpredictable.

"What's wrong with that?" Rick asked back. "What's the use of that kind of thing for me? I just... I want the settlement to survive until the end of the war, and to give those children a chance to see the sun behind the blood-red clouds."

Rick replied in his heart.

At the same time, he laughed at himself, if Kelong was here, he would say that he was talking to himself in a daze.

Sure enough... just thinking in his heart, the existence in front of him has already heard his appeal.

"What if I told you that Ex-Machina was one of the culprits who destroyed your village back then?" The existence put down the king in his hand, and then picked up the queen white chess standing on the adjacent continent, and gently rammed it into the continent of Lucia.

It was a chess piece that symbolized the strongest Flügel.

"With your far-sightedness, these are all achievable for you."
