"Is anyone else here?"

Kamijou said in annoyance, but he didn't seem to expect Thor to answer like that.

"Why, you haven't discovered it yet...?"

"?"

"The final enemy is not me. No matter who it is, they will know it if they just think about it, right?"

This sentence is thought-provoking.

That creates suspense again.

It also clearly states the giving and returning of divine power.

"Just as described in Norse mythology."

Knowledgeable viewers could hear some voice-over from this conversation alone.

And following these words.

The editing suddenly went off track.

Once again, the scene changes from Kamijou Touma’s perspective.

At this time.

The demon goddess Othinus was alone by the lake, her knees sunk in the snow, her hands touching the frozen surface of the lake.

Muttered to himself.

Suddenly, the entire lake glowed with an astonishing blue light. The light quickly condensed and shrank to the top of the cold water held in Othinus's hands. In her hands was a ping-pong ball-sized sphere. The sphere was very different from a human eyeball, blue and hard as a gem. No matter what method was used to preserve human body tissue, it would never be this color. It looked like neither a human nor a demon, perhaps the structure itself was different.

These are her "eyes."

Previously, Othinus sacrificed a part of his body to the spring water, thereby sublimating it into the special body of the god of magic. This time, he would put it into the eye socket under the eye patch and regain the body before he became the demon god.

In this way, the world that fears "absolute power" can be saved from chaos.

Then surrender, and the commotion caused by the "troublemaker" and Euthinus will come to an end.

but.

She had an idea.

At this moment, a negative thought suddenly flashed through the mind of the demon god Othinus.

(…Is this okay?)

The key to everything lies in your hands.

This was a heavy burden for Othinus.

(Am I really worthy of being saved...?)

She saw the boy covered in blood.

The boy became a shield for Othinus's own sins, and literally continued to fight while spitting blood.

He fought with people who were once his companions, and his scars increased one by one. Before he knew it, it became difficult to find uninjured parts.

After watching all this, the Demon God had this idea.

Am I qualified to be saved?

Because Othinus did so many things and caused trouble for many people.

Because Othinus had not yet atone for any sins, nor had he begged for forgiveness from anyone.

Because the victim of Othinus' success was the young man, and Othinus did nothing.

Having said that…

If I ask, I will surely get an answer. Kamijou Touma, the "understanding one", will surely say that it's okay. But is it okay to just cling to his words? Just rely on him, depend on him, and apply pressure unilaterally... Forcibly drag out these seemingly self-evident words, and then end with "So I was saved", is that okay?

Is it really okay to just leave everything to the young man who offers salvation to me without any explanation?

From another perspective, isn't this equivalent to Othinus blaming the fact that he was saved, the reason why he went with the flow, and his dependence on the bottomless swamp all on the young man?

If you say you don’t want to be saved, you are lying.

Because she had fled all the way to such a place, she would rather end it with results than end it with nothing. This was her sincere words without any falsehood.

but.

Is it okay to throw that boy into a vortex of hatred just because of this?

but.

Knowing that I will have to continue to bear the sins from now on, but I can only save myself, is this okay?

but.

Is it okay to use a secret technique to skip levels and directly get through the extremely difficult journey, and just push the injustice onto the young boy?

and so.

"what……"

A clear voice sounded.

The blue gem that he scooped up with both hands fell at the girl's feet.

“I still can’t do it.”

Othinus covered her face with her palms, which were chilled by the sub-zero lake water.

She sounded like a moan but made a clear statement.

"I can't save myself."

Chapter 233: I swear to save you even at my own death!

What an ironic situation this is, when gods have human emotions and desires, when they truly experience the emotions and entanglements that only mortals have.

Do I really qualify to be saved?

This question is not only asked by Othinus in the video, but also by the girl in front of the screen who is witnessing this scene.

If that is really the case.

If everything really follows the process in the video.

A young man who was once at the cross-purposes of others suddenly changed sides and became an enemy of the world in order to save himself... and to save this selfish and unforgivable demon.

When seeing that this ordinary mortal actually mustered such courage, then...even at this moment, even if he hasn't done anything yet, even if Othinus thought that he could remain calm after watching the content of the video, how should he deal with his emotions?

Is it the joy of being saved, the joy of finally finding someone who understands you in such a vast crowd?

Hmm...it seems so.

So, do you feel regretful because your long-cherished wish is ultimately thwarted by a mortal?

Hmm...I still feel a little bit unconvinced.

However, is there any joy in this scene where Kamijou Touma tries his best and does everything he can to save the traitor named Othinus?

There is no doubt that this must have happened.

Three questions, three answers.

From vague to definite confirmation.

Watching the person in the video standing alone in front of the spring, hesitating, the sad expression on his face was completely unlike his usual self.

Behind the screen, Othinus touched his face unconsciously, and for some reason his fingertips twitched twice, and he muttered silently:

"It's so strange, would I ever think about these topics in the past?"

"This is very strange... Am I finally affected by the situation in the video? Otherwise... Why did it end up like this? I have found someone who understands me, and everything I long for is within reach, but..."

but--

The voice stops abruptly, and the fragment left behind always gives people a lot of room for imagination.

Othinus thought about it.

At this moment, since I have done everything in the video that is intolerable to the world, why should I seek forgiveness from others?

To be honest, as a god, he would actually sympathize with ordinary lives and think about seeking forgiveness from others. This seems to be an extreme mistake in itself... But -

Am I really qualified to hope for and enjoy all this?

Looking at himself hesitating in the video screen, Othinus in front of the screen was also stunned.

The voice-over of the video also sounded simultaneously, perfectly matching the inner monologue corresponding to this scene with a narrative voice.

[The reason why the girl was stunned was not because of the happiness that was so close to her]

[Not for any other reasons]

[At this moment, hovering in the mind of the demon god who once only cared about himself, the emotion called fear is reverberating, an emotion that gods do not have.]

[Fear of the remnants of evil that will be inflicted on that boy after making such a careless choice]

[Fear of what effect this would have on the boy. ]

[Asking myself in the same way——]

[After dragging the entire world into this vortex of my own will, is there really any reason for me to escape from it so easily? ]

【This answer...】

Follow the sound.

The screen image is frozen at this frame.

Followed by.

A distorted scene that shook the earth and mountains.

The visual impact is so sudden that the audience feels dizzy.

It seems as if the editor deliberately drew these frames to emphasize the emotional conflict here.

Although it is simple, it causes strong discomfort among the audience, and many viewers can see the entangled emotions contained in it.

The extended meaning of this voice-over, unsurprisingly... is that something big is about to happen.

Immediately, the shocking visual feast appeared again on the screen.

The shocking tremors evenly struck the surrounding area.

As the audience either exclaimed or looked on in amazement.

"..."

Kamijou Touma looked towards the center of the explosion with trepidation.

The despair I had seen was there.

Ten wings that looked like they were about to cover the entire world - they looked similar, but they were not. The complex pattern that stretched infinitely was actually the "crossbow" that the demon god Othinus used as his last trump card. Even Kamijou, who barely overcame the "lance" in that infinite hell, didn't know how to deal with this ultimate weapon.

However, Othinus should not be able to use magic properly at the moment.

Forcibly performing it would probably affect her life.

Everything...extends again.

This farce, which has not yet ended, has reappeared again.

The curtain was opened again in a rather dramatic and puzzling situation.

This scene was quite shocking, affecting not only the audience but also the parties involved.

"There won't be any more accidents." In the dimension of Monster No. 8, Kafka, who was determined to fight and eliminate all monsters in the future, has now become a glorious monster corpse worker. He was shocked and dumbfounded when he saw the scene in the video: "No way, what should I do in this situation? Everything has been resolved. Is the situation going to become the same as at the beginning!?"

“Tsk, this… is this a joke? Isn’t this already the last step? Why is it still…” Misaka Mikoto, one of the people who appeared in the video and blocked Kamijou Touma, was in disbelief when she saw this scene. A strong sense of confusion emerged on her face. She clenched her fists angrily and whispered, “If that’s the case… If that’s the case, then everything is meaningless! It’s obviously come to this point, but why does it have to turn into this situation? It’s like a TV series with one thing after another… What’s the point!”

Misaka Mikoto is a person with an extremely high IQ. In other words, as long as there are people who have developed superpowers, there is no one with low intelligence, even Sogiita Gunha who looks like a hot-blooded idiot is the same.

But having a high IQ does not mean that one’s EQ is also at a very high level. At least Misaka Mikoto does not have an outstanding talent in this area.

"I'm afraid she is sad about this hurdle in her heart~"

At the critical moment, it was that familiar honey color that gave the answer: "The Electric Princess of Tokiwadai... is so nice, puchi..."
