Clip exposure, the savior Kamijou Touma

Followed by.

The fire on the right makes a sneak attack from the ruins behind.

It hit Euthinus directly.

Even though it doesn't seem to cause any harm at first glance.

But... maybe there is a delayed effect?

Who cares about him so much!

Anyway, this is what they are speculating from their perspective since they don't understand magic at all.

Otherwise, why would the devil suddenly show such a painful expression?

"Yes, I'm talking about the scene where Orelus and the Right Flame transform the demon into a fairy. Anyway, since it was specially released by the editor, it proves that this part will definitely be effective in the subsequent plot... As far as I can see, there are only two ways to use this plot to help the protagonist——"

"The first is to inspire the protagonist... that is, through the failure of the companions, or their unwillingness to surrender and breaking the spirit modified by the devil's rule, infecting the protagonist... However, it seems that the holder of this plot element is Misaka Integrated Consciousness. Her performance infected Kamijou Touma and gave him the motivation to continue working hard."

"In this case, Orelus and the Right Fire, who have shown various characteristics before, seem a bit redundant. Then there is only one other possibility that should not be ruled out, and that is..."

"Yes, this means that the magic called Fairy Transformation has not failed, but the effect is not as obvious as they thought. It is just slowly exerting its effect, slowly destroying everything of this perfect demon god."

Over there, the discussion was well organized and the attitude was correct.

On this side, hearing this nonsense, Othinus, who was standing next to him, smiled in boredom and thought it was very childish.

And in the video.

The picture continues...

(pain……!)

Kamijou’s face twisted involuntarily as the intense pain struck his entire body.

Kamijou barely managed to escape the deadly area, but the aftermath of the explosion caught him in mid-air without hesitation.

The boy's body flew far away from the expected position and fell to the ground. Unable to stop the momentum, he rolled several times.

Even so, he still managed to pull through.

"..."

Othinus stared at his target with his remaining eye and raised his "spear" slightly again.

Bang! A large number of explosions lost their continuity and rushed towards Kamijou Touma like a wall without leaving any gaps.

Kamijou did not raise his right hand.

He took a small step sideways forward, as if he were moving through the crowd toward the door on a crowded tram.

That's it.

The tiny boy's body nimbly drilled through thousands of exploding walls.

"what?"

The results produced are inconsistent with one's own theory.

Othinus looked unbelievable and could not help but growl:

"What happened? Your performance shouldn't be able to compete with mine!"

"I think so. Even if I repeat the fight countless times, my power will not increase. There is no simple development like "Imagine Slayer awakens hidden power". I am still me, and I have not become something else."

“In that case…!”

The stars in the night sky twinkled like some strange omen.

They all turned into sharp spears of light, pouring down like heavy rain.

but--

"If that's the case, why are you still able to survive!"

“Have you forgotten? Or did you just ignore my analogy because it was too stupid, Othinus? That’s what I just said - ‘But, when facing an enemy that you can’t normally defeat, it’s fun to analyze his attack patterns through trial and error, and even if you don’t get any data, you’ll feel like you’ve accumulated something’!”

“… Could it be that…”

"Even though I can't upgrade as easily as in an RPG, even though my strength and abilities haven't changed, I still keep analyzing during this period. While I was being killed, I memorized your fighting patterns bit by bit, until my body could follow habitual movements without waiting for my brain to react! Anyway, there are as many opportunities as you want. After all, you've been with me so many times that you even forgot to count them!"

For example, in traditional shooting games, it is easier to open up a path to subsequent levels by training the player's own skills in reality than by strengthening the player's own abilities.

Even if the level seems so difficult when you first see it that you think you can never pass it, as you play more and more times, you will gradually see the characteristics of the enemy's actions and bullet screen. So the player accumulates step by step, and finally it becomes possible to defeat the boss as if following the established process and move on to the next level.

"You have been dying miserably all along just for..."

"Unfortunately, it is a fact that I cannot defeat you. I did not hold back. No matter how hard I tried, I would still be killed in the end. However, I was not killed for nothing. I chose different ways to die in order to try various things. I learned through death. It may not be good for the noble gods, but it is the entertainment of the vulgar mortals."

Maybe there is no point at all.

Maybe you will get nothing except a sense of fulfillment.

but--

"I'm just an ordinary high school student. My right hand has some special powers, but even if I take that into account, I can't fight those 'professional' guys head-on. Even if I can avoid the attacks of God here, I'm still me. If I fight a normal magician, I will lose normally. After all, I only have this much ability."

“Bang, bang ...

Destruction cannot catch up with youth.

He would squeeze into the tiniest gap, or go against the predictions of Othinus's deflected shots, preventing his own flesh from exploding at the last moment.

"But I have already constructed your model. Even if it were any other magician, they would normally be defeated, but if it's just you now, I can escape! Even if you have the power of God, you are still a mortal who climbed to the top of the magic god. It may be rude to God to say this, but it makes people feel familiar. Since you have desires, you will also have hostility. You are not the type who is full of rules that are difficult to understand!"

Kamijou Touma did not pursue magic in the other side of the world.

But what the boy said inadvertently pointed out the characteristics of the gods in polytheistic mythology such as Greek mythology and Norse mythology.

The gods of polytheism have emotions in addition to rationality. They show not only positivity, love, and justice, but also negative emotions such as fear and jealousy.

The polytheistic church integrates the opinions of multiple gods to make the whole a flexible system, which is a kind of "as long as it gets on the right track in the end" idea.

Even as a god, one can still be lost and fail.

In that case——

"Come to think of it, you are not an absolute at all."

To represent the so-called gods, one must stand on the standpoint of the group of "gods" in order to come up with a perfect answer.

By compensating for each other's weaknesses, they built a solid defense system that no enemy could penetrate.

This is one of the characteristics of polytheistic mythology.

Even if there is only one main god who abandons the heaven and other gods and appears alone.

It also does not mean that He can exert perfect power.

"Even if Othinus has completed it, that alone is not an absolute!"

"..."

It was said right.

indeed so.

This conclusion was not taught by others, nor was it obtained by reading literature. It was a simple rule of thumb, a crude answer based on one's own personal experience. However, for the silent Othinus, this was more dangerous than elegant learning.

This is also natural.

It was not just superficial knowledge that remained in the brain. Experience had penetrated to the point where it could be called "remembering with the body" and had been refined into a technique that could be used.

Moreover, Norse mythology is a huge system centered on struggle.

It is reasonable that Othinus, who stands at the top of this system, would value the crude experience gained from actual combat over the clean theories from the desk.

Even if that is the enemy's achievement.

“…I see.”

The sound of wind was heard.

That was the sound of Othinus gently swinging his "spear".

This is not a sign of attack.

She slowly moved the "spear" and held it with both hands.

"Although I can't stand the bad fate between me and Orelus, I originally thought that this was the limit of how the world would treat me."

"...?"

"Is it because you've been with me longer than he has? I never thought that someone who can understand him better would appear in a place like this. The so-called "possibilities of the world" are really hard to deal with!"

The shout became the opening gunshot.

Kamijou Touma and Othinus moved at the same time.

Only one step away from victory or defeat.

Then the vortex of destruction exploded.

boom----!

Time stops.

Space is squeezed.

Those common concepts no longer make sense.

In Norse mythology, the spear owned by the main god is called Kungunir. Legend has it that its handle is made of mistletoe, just like the world tree, and the sharp spear head is made of gold. The main god personally carved runes on this weapon made by the black dwarves, giving it great destructive power.

It has several features.

First, the essence of this spear is a javelin.

Second, once this spear is wielded, it will definitely hit the target.

Third, the spear will not be shot down or destroyed along the way.

Fourth, after piercing the target, the spear will definitely return to the hands of the holder.

…“Flying props that return after being thrown” seems to be a very important item. For example, the Celtic mythological hero Kufrin, who did not have this feature, was killed in the end because the spear he threw was thrown back by the enemy. (Note: The more common saying is that Kufrin was tricked by the enemy and handed over the spear.) In addition, Mjolnir, the thunder god Thor in Norse mythology, and Flagrak, the light god Lugh in Celtic mythology, also meet this feature.

Perhaps this means that this feature only belongs to "powerful weapons that humans can never make and only special gods can wield."

In addition to meeting these conditions, the "spear" held by the Norse main god also has a certain feature that makes it a step away from other artifacts.

Fifth, the spear breaks the symbol of human authority.

This refers to the Lord God using a spear to break the "legendary sword" owned by the father of the hero Sigurd. The Norse Lord God will deprive humans of their power as needed, which is a metaphor for the death of a person so that his soul can join the army of the gods.

This is probably the most powerful force of the "spear", and it can also be said to be the most important feature of the Norse god.

Man cannot defeat God.

Everything in the human world will prioritize the victory of the gods and quietly enforce the laws of the world.

There is probably no feature that can make people feel "divine power" more.

Compared to the simple and easy-to-understand military force of blowing up mountains and evaporating oceans, this would surely better demonstrate the "superiority of God."

In other words.

so.

The moment when Othinus threw the "spear".

No matter what the world is, it will be reduced to ashes.

Time is reversed.

Kamijou regained his awareness of the vastness of the space.

Just as the entire space was torn into pieces, the "happy world" was shattered by the "spear" that was shot out with amazing force. The fragments of the world that were approaching like a raging wave and like a huge wave combined into a huge spear. It bit through the barriers between the various phases and turned into a sharp glass-like vortex of weapons that rushed forward, with the sole intention of devouring its poor target.

Sweeping everything.

The dark labyrinth that crushed the sprouts of possibility peeked out.

The demon god Othinus is essentially a "creator", so strictly speaking, this may not be destruction, but rather a change that gives the world a new "phase". However, if we only look at the results in front of us, it is clear as day. It is like saying "smashing a magnificent palace" is "creating a pile of rubble". It is undoubtedly a torrent of "destruction".

Don't care about what the world thinks.

Prioritize the destruction carried out by God.

...The biggest effect of doing this is to make the humans who witness it give up resistance.
