I fooled the whole world

This is their planet. If you want to make trouble on their planet, shouldn't you ask their opinions first?

Following Yukinoshita Hachiman's words, Dr. Zarrab continued: "We analyzed the situation based on Lily Akabu's intelligence, and then came to a conclusion."

"Sius himself cannot summon darkness. All he can do is guide and guide the darkness out of the hearts of living beings, just like the plan on the planet Firth."

"We compared this information to what Hughes told us a week ago."

"He said that summoning monsters not only attracts our attention and causes social unrest, but also has the idea of ​​calling out darkness."

"But this plan would take too long to execute and therefore could not be his true plan."

"And Hughes himself doesn't have that ability, so Hughes can only borrow external power."

"Then what means can Hughes use to borrow external forces on this planet?"

"There is only one answer"

"——Monster."

On this planet, if you want to make the world chaotic and bad, the only thing that can do it is monsters.

So Yukinoshita Hachiman and Zarabu set their sights on monsters.

There must be a monster on this planet that they don't know that can summon darkness.

As long as you find that monster, you have found Hughes!

"I see, that's it...as long as we find that monster..."

"Ok?"

Find the monster?

Yukinoshita Yukino was stunned for a moment, then blinked.

No, wait, why are your words jumping so high? Why can’t I understand what you mean?

I understand that you want to start from the source, and I understand that you want to start from the things that lead to darkness, but why do you talk about monsters?

Not to mention that Hughes himself can call and control monsters, and there are monsters on the Blue Star that we don't know about... Are you sure there are monsters on the Blue Star that we are not familiar with?

When facing the Lebrondos, all the Blue Star monsters came out. Now they know exactly how many monsters there are on this planet. How could there be monsters that they don't know yet?

In this case, how did you come to this conclusion?

Yukinoshita Yukino didn't know how to complain, nor where to start.

Yukinoshita Hachiman and the Zarab star...what are they thinking?

However......

"No, there are monsters on this planet that we don't know about, that's for sure."

He spoke softly with such certainty.

"Did we know there were monsters on this planet before the monsters themselves appeared?"

"Before our worldview was shattered and recast, did we know that this planet could support such huge creatures?"

"There are many secrets on this planet. Although we have seen a lot of things now, we have not completely seen through this planet."

“What we think is impossible may not really be impossible.”

“Be in awe of this planet, be full of exploration for the unknown, and never think that we know everything.”

"This is the most fundamental thing for our human existence on this planet."

Yukinoshita Hachiman's words made her silent for a while.

Never think we know it all... or do we.

Is that why your thinking is so bold and unconstrained?

Really convinced you.

She sighed as if sighing.

"Okay, I'll take this as true. Even if there is a monster we don't know about on this planet, how can we find this monster?"

"How should we find the monster that didn't appear when we fought against the Lebrondos?"

Faced with this problem, Yukinoshita Hachiman said this.

"Myth is our compass."

Yukinoshita Yukino repeated.

"Myth...is our compass?"

"Yes, do you still remember the names of the monsters on our Blue Star?"

name?How could I not remember this?

Tiamat, named after the Mesopotamian creation god, Behemoth, named after the earth monster, Scylla, named after the siren in Greek mythology, Methuselah, named after the biblical legend, and Anhuruk, Nakika, etc... Yukinoshita Yukino thought of many monster names.

These monsters are all named after characters in mythology, but what does this have to do with...

Wait, don't tell me! ?

Myths, compasses, names…

She seemed to realize something and couldn't help but open her eyes wide.

That deep disbelief made Yukinoshita Hachiman nodded.

"Not named after myths, but they are myths."

They are myths, they are myths...

Yukinoshita Hachiman, how on earth do you have such a long head! ?

For a long time, humans have thought that they found the corresponding characters in mythology and then named the monsters. They gave the monsters this name, but no one has ever thought about it.

——Why are monsters so similar to characters in mythology?

Why do they fit so well into the mythology?Why can each of them find traces in mythology?Why do they always have myths and legends named after them?

No one has thought about the reason for all this before, and no one has paid attention to it. Everyone thinks it is just a coincidence, but with so many coincidences added together, is it really a coincidence?

Ha... So that's it... So that's it.

The answer is finally revealed.

It turns out that the monsters are the prototypes of the characters in mythology they said they were familiar with!

Their ancestors created stories based on monsters!

The original order of things was reversed by them. 】

Yukinoshita Hachiman's remarks made many Blue Star people unable to help but be stunned.

Are the prototypes of the mythical beasts they are familiar with actually monsters?

It's not that the monsters meet the myth, but that the myth itself is derived from them?

Death Card Pilot: This... This is indeed a bit shocking.

Deadly Pilot: This can't be true, can it?

Super High School Level Detective: Although I also think this statement is a bit bold, but considering their world, this seems to be no problem.

Super high school level detective: Human history has developed for 8000-[-] years, and Barton's age is completely within the trajectory of human development. It is not surprising that people saw him going out to hunt and then praised it as a myth.

Super high school-level detective: After all, people in ancient times believed in gods very much, and they always named unknown events in the name of gods.

God's Tongue: This is how myths come about... I thought myths were some kind of unbridled romance, but it turns out they have prototypes.

God's Tongue: I don't know why, but I suddenly felt a little sense of loss.

Kasumi Shiko: In fact, there is no need to be disappointed. That world is like this, but our other worlds are not. We are all Blue Stars. It is normal to have the same mythology, but the sources are not necessarily the same.

Kasumi Shiko: It’s okay for our myth to be a fantasy and romance.

It’s going to explode now: Shouldn’t it be someone like Barton who deserves to be complained about, who can also be praised as a myth?

Current charge: I checked the information about Patton on the Internet. There are no myths, only some folklore. It seems that Patton has not become a myth yet.

This can include: Really?Great!

Saki Saki: It’s great that Patton has not become a myth. If Patton became a myth, our other myths would be brought down a notch.

Mr. Ge: It’s hard to disagree.

Is it a dragon, not a snake: Is it possible that it is no longer a Blue Star monster, so does it matter whether it becomes a myth or not?

Mr. Pan: It is not a Blue Star monster but it has become a myth. Doesn’t that disgrace the local myth even more?

It’s a dragon, not a snake: it seems to make some sense.

Volcano Monster Bird:?

Volcano Monster Bird: Are you discriminating against me?You must be discriminating against me, right?Yes or no!We are all Blue Star creatures, but you are discriminating against me!Damn it, it’s too damning!

Volcano Monster Bird: I want to protest, I want to protest with Him!

It’s a dragon, not a snake: the protest is invalid.

Mr. Ge: Steamed buns, are you not convinced?

Cosmic Leviathan: Laughing to death.

[The prototype of myth is monster, so myth is their compass.

But even if they knew this, how could they find the unknown monster?

There are so many myths, even if we map the existing monsters one by one, there will still be a lot of characters left.

Even if you remove those heroes who are in human form and can speak, there are still many. How can they accurately find the monster in this vast myth?

"That's why we need time to investigate."

Yukinoshita Hachiman continued to explain.

"In many myths, many monsters, mythical beasts, and monsters are described as bringing disasters to the world. In terms of destruction, they are all similar, so we think more deeply."

"Any monster can do this kind of destruction. If it was just for destruction, Hughes wouldn't put in so much effort."

"So this monster must have dark attributes."

"For example, many mythical gods of death, darkness, plague, etc."

"But even that was a large range, so we locked the range to Japan based on Hughes' actions."

"He is operating in Japan, which means the monster he needs is in Japan."

"But the only monster that appears in Japan today is Yamata no Orochi, and the most powerful evil god in our Japanese mythology is Yamata no Orochi. It is not a monster that summons darkness, and it is certainly not the target of Hughes. Therefore, the orthodox mythology can be abandoned, and we Consider folklore instead.”

"There are many folklores, and there must be some related to darkness and evil. But the scope is too large, and after a period of frequent monsters, the legends are more difficult to find. It is difficult to find them in a short time, so Zarrab It's only now that the Doctor has discovered Hughes' true purpose."

When he said this, Dr. Zarrab quickly took over.

"Yes, these days I have been searching for folklore day and night, and then I have to distinguish each myth one by one. I am almost too tired to stand up straight."

"But even so, I still found it!"

"That monster is in Mount Akame, Kuzu Village, Machida City, Tokyo!"]

Chapter 261 Wake up, my love...the sleeping monster!

[A legend has been circulating in Jiutou Village, Akame Mountain.

Legend has it that a long time ago, on the day of the solar eclipse, gods came to this village. The gods called for darkness, covered the sky, and caused many disasters. Later, the villagers sacrificed human sacrifices, and the day of the total solar eclipse came to save the village. The god who came here became the protector of Kuzuryu Village and became the patron saint. From then on, he was revered as 'Akame-sama' by the villagers for generations.

"This legend came to my attention while collecting other folklore."

"Because myths are based on monsters, but not all mythical prototypes are derived from monsters... No, maybe what should I say, because of human imagination, when a monster appears, myths are born, but myths As time goes on and continues to spread, there will be many commonalities.”

"For example, the dragon-slaying heroes Siegfried and Sigurd, or the creation goddess Nuwa and the creation god Tiamat... These myths that have something in common are often the same monster prototype."

"In the land of Japan, the gods related to darkness, Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, and the Izanami couple who created this land... But these should have evolved based on legends from other places. It’s not native to Japan.”

"The only monster related to Japanese local mythology is Yamata no Orochi."

"So when I was collecting folk myths, I also compared the characters corresponding to those legends and myths. If it is a god related to Japanese local myths, then the folk legend is wrong. If not, then it is possible."

"And among the many legends, I finally found this one."
