Synopsis: Endless Shuttle

"No." The girl shook her head.

She has read a lot of books in her spare time, and is interested in history, but she has never heard of a country with the name "Myth of Cthulhu".

An eerie, ominous feeling.

"Really. Then the story I'm telling may be a little long, so just listen to the fairy tale. Miss Makase, please sit down."

"Uh...thank you."

Although the girl wondered how the fairy tale had something to do with the time machine, she had to listen to her boss.

She put the information in her hand on the table, pulled a swivel chair and sat upright in front of Rope, with a curious look on the baby's face.

"Where to start... um, just from here."

Rope snapped his fingers, and the projector-like picture appeared between the two of them.

Above is the starry sky, countless strange and magnificent stars, huge constellations, showing the boundless beauty of the universe.

All of a sudden, two powers of color appeared in this empty universe, and Makase Kurisu felt dizzy just by looking at it.

- Something that mortals cannot understand.

"At the beginning of the universe's birth, two forces prevailed over all things. One is "chaos", which symbolizes the chaos before birth, and the other is "order", which symbolizes balance and protection. "

In the projection, the two forces became clearer.

"After a long and untraceable time, countless spirits have been born from both forces. It is the supreme existence, and people and mortals call it "God" with respect and fear.As you understand it, gods are transcendental beings who can create miracles and rule the rules.Like the yin and yang of Taoism and the duality of Zoroastrianism, the gods born from the two incompatible forces of "chaos" and "order" have waged wars for thousands of years because of their essential conflicts, and the war has spread to in every ancient world. "

The power became an entity, and on both sides of the universe, there were vague human figures with sublime light on one side-because Rope didn't know what other ancient gods looked like except Nuts, the "Winged One of Light".

On the other side, there are all kinds of strange, terrifying and terrifying alien gods - the old masters.

"It has nothing to do with the evil that makes people laugh. Due to the nature of chaos and disorder, the chaotic beloved children can't condense a force like the gods of order. They naturally failed and were sealed in the corner of the universe. The god of order took over the dominion of the multiverse and laid down the rules to balance the universe."

Ignoring Azalea's complaints, Rope continued.

"This is the background of our universe. Although humans worship science, we live and continue in a mythical universe."

The black-haired youth glanced at the brown-red-haired girl who had something to say.

"Don't rush to express a different opinion, wait until I finish."

"...Okay." Makase Kurisu withdrew his hand in embarrassment.

It is really difficult for a scientific researcher to agree with the mythical universe.

"War is both the cause and the result. The powers of "chaos" and "order" are almost the same, no, even "chaos" is above it, so in the middle of the war, there is a powerful god of order. defeated. ' said Rope.

"It is the most beloved second son of "Order", the ancient god in charge of death - "Lord of Death" Azakaron. "

"Not only did they preach the glory of victory, but the evil gods also made use of them, dividing Azakaron's corpse into five parts, corrupting its spirit, and becoming the enemy of his comrades-in-arms who once stood on the same front. The powerful power of its five evil creatures Caused considerable trouble to the gods of order at one time. Dead powerhouses and demigods crawled out of every world, wielding their power to bring disaster and chaos... Corrupted Azakaron has completely fallen and disappeared. Glory back then."

"Finally, Azakaron's actions alarmed the god of order who was engulfed in another battlefield. Its old friend "God of the Abyss" Norden barely escaped from the quagmire of war, and exiled those who committed crimes against their will with grief. Azacaron, seal him out of the multiverse and punish him for wandering forever. "

"A long time. Maybe even some of the new gods of order have forgotten the name of Azakaron, but a group of people remember it firmly."

"Humans, serpents, elves, elemental creatures... The former believers of Azakaron, who have been passed down from generation to generation, continue to sing the honor of the ancient death god. Even if they are corrupted into evil gods, even if their gods are not in the multiverse Among them, believers are still unwilling to give up.”

"'Our gods have abandoned us, but we have not abandoned our gods' - these are the words most often spoken by the "priests of death" of Azakaron. "

"They worship Azakaron uninterruptedly, and hope that one day their god will return to lead them with radiant crowns, and restore their ancient splendor."

After learning about his enemies from Wingate, Ropey supplemented the knowledge about Azakaron and the Priest of Death in various forbidden books and books, and also understood the history of these lingering guys.

- Surprisingly sad.

Chapter [-] "The Savior" Rope

Makase Kurisu listened fascinatedly, and only made a comment after a long time.

"A little sad story..."

Fallen and departed God, believers who hold fast to their faith.Whether Makase Kurisu believes it or not, this is a tragic story, especially the phrase "passed from generation to generation", the girl almost smelled the sense of historical desolation that came to her face.

Young people are always easily moved, and so is Makase Kurisu.

"Is it?"

Rope smiled sarcastically.

"You won't feel sorry for them right away."

"Imaginations out of thin air will not create miracles. Even if they kneel and die in front of the statue of Azakaron, the master will not return. The priests of death are very clear about this. Since the exile of Azakaron, their efforts have been made. Countless, some even deviate from the teachings of the former Azakaron, and let other creatures die in unnatural forms in large swaths - the god of death, must draw strength from death."

"what do you mean……?"

"massacre."

Rope's smile turned cold.

"Plague, provocation of war, or the destruction of a world by some powerful priests of death, the followers of Azakaron are as crazy as their masters. They make murders, hold grand sacrifices of death, think Let Azakaron draw power from these deaths and return to this universe."

"But they failed unsurprisingly."

"The seal of "God of the Abyss" Norden is so powerful that it has almost cut off all the paths that would allow Azakaron to return to this multiverse.The God of Magic knew very well at that time how terrifying the return of a corrupted ancient god would be in the peaceful scene of defeating the evil god in the future and all things returning to the place of order. "

This is what Rope thought clearly in his spare time studying divinity.
