In the beginning, there was a pair of brownish-gold pupils. Following closely were peach-pink, purplish-black, cyan-blue, and slender, delicate black eyes, ice-blue, energetic orange, and dark purple…

The last to appear were deep, pure black eyes.

Rio Futaba, of course, recognized these eyes. These… were the eyes of the Overload Club members she had met countless times. Yotsuya Miko hadn't stolen these members' eyes; after all, the brownish-gold pupils that first appeared on Hyakume were Rio Futaba's.

These… aren't real eyes at all, but rather the personification of Yotsuya Miko's inner emotions.

"I see… so this is the power of bonds…"

Yotsuya Miko slowly opened her eyes, recalling the power that Yozora had once felt when facing the evil god Izanami on Nitou Island, and muttered to herself.

"At this moment… I have also completed the process of crossing from ‘The Fool’… to ‘The World.’"

"What is this…"

Teru Mikami and Misa Amane saw the changes suddenly occurring in Yotsuya Miko's Hyakume, and felt the extremely oppressive spiritual power fluctuations, their expressions involuntarily stiffening.

"That psychic's Soul Avatar… can actually evolve? How is that possible…"

The next second, Teru Mikami suddenly saw Yotsuya Miko, holding a pale golden long sword, suddenly appear in front of him.

"Minamoto no Yoshitsune!"

"It's useless."

Yotsuya Miko's voice was devoid of emotion. As Teru Mikami and Misa Amane watched in confusion, she didn't make a slashing motion, but instead sheathed Mikazuki Munechika back into its scabbard, saying indifferently.

"The moment you saw me, it was already over."

"How could this be…"

As the view in front of him shattered bit by bit, Teru Mikami finally reacted, his voice filled with intense unwillingness, yet also a kind of incredible powerlessness and despair.

"You actually…"

"Eat them, Hyakume."

Yotsuya Miko completely ignored Teru Mikami and Misa Amane, whose bodies were shattered into several pieces and were certainly dead, and instead, while these two were not completely dead, she had Hyakume devour their Soul Avatars.

Their main bodies had completely lost the ability to resist, so Minamoto no Yoshitsune and Ishtar naturally couldn't make any resisting motions.

"Mm… delicious."

After devouring Ishtar and Minamoto no Yoshitsune, Hyakume first praised it like this, then re-covered its eyes with the cloth strips, and smiled meaningfully at Yotsuya Miko.

"Of course, compared to the kind of thing that we two love to eat the most… it's still far behind."

"I'm saying, you've at least evolved from Hyakume Oni into Hyakume God, can't you stop making such vulgar jokes?"

"Heh heh, isn't that because you suppressed your emotions for too long in the past, which led to my personality being so authentic, speaking my mind directly? In the end, that's your fault too."

"Your skill at shifting the blame is indeed a true inheritance from Yozora."

… …

Later that evening, in the "palace" of Tokyo.

"Light-kun…"

Kiyomi Takada had a complicated expression on her face, pursed her lips, placed her hand on Light Yagami's shoulder, and said softly.

"You… calm down…"

"I am calm."

After learning of the deaths of Misa Amane and Teru Mikami, Light Yagami not only didn't feel the slightest sadness, but even had that charming smile on his face.

He raised his hand and grasped Kiyomi Takada's hand, opening his mouth with a smile in his voice.

"Didn't I say? In this world, only I, as God, and you, as Goddess, are important. Everyone else… is insignificant."

"Light-kun…"

Upon hearing this, Kiyomi Takada revealed a look of emotion, pursed her lips, and a smile also surfaced in her eyes.

"That's right, that Teru Mikami and Misa Amane… were just getting in our way, especially that Misa Amane, actually claiming to be your lover… truly shameless. Based on her, is she worthy of the God of the New World?"

"You're right."

Light Yagami patted the back of Kiyomi Takada's hand, and said softly in a gentle tone.

"However, after Misa Amane's death, the matter of creating the ‘Holy Grail’ will be your responsibility."

"Mm, I understand."

"Good, go ahead."

After Kiyomi Takada left the room, the smile on Light Yagami's face gradually disappeared, and he pulled out a piece of paper from the drawer of the desk in front of him.

Several names were conspicuously written on the paper.

"Anger - Rikka Sakuragawa, Greed - Alexis Leskinen, Lust - Misa Amane, Jealousy - Kiyomi Takada…"

"Only the last three are missing… only three are left…"

Light Yagami's figure, illuminated by the red moon outside the window, exuded a twisted fanaticism.

"The ‘Holy Grail’ will be completely finished…"

… …

Two days later, in the underground space of Kyoto City.

"It's finally almost over…"

At this time, Light Yagami was following behind Yozora in a very funny, even somewhat comical posture, walking slowly downwards along a spiral staircase.

Just looking at his movements, there wasn't any problem.

But what was funny was that L was lying on Light Yagami's back, still gnawing on a piece of chocolate.

"Hey, I'm saying…"

Light Yagami had a speechless expression on his face. When he spoke, he instinctively wanted to turn his face, but since he was carrying L on his back, if he turned his face to the side, the posture would seem too ambiguous. So he could only look ahead, sighing helplessly.

"Didn't you say… that after you took that special medicine, staying awake for four or five days without sleeping wouldn't be a problem at all?"

"Mm, it's not a problem."

L had a matter-of-course attitude, nonchalantly wiping his hand, which was covered in chocolate crumbs, on Light Yagami's shoulder.

"My brain is able to stay awake, but I didn't say that my body could withstand it. Usually when I stay up late, I only need to move my fingers and head, nothing else. This time I also have to walk, so in order to ensure that my brain can function normally, having you carry me on your back is the wisest and most efficient choice."

"Then why don't you have Yozora carry you?"

Hearing this question, L said indifferently.

"He said that if I dared to get on his back, he would give me a powerful over-the-shoulder throw."

Yagami Light rolled his eyes and retorted.

"How is that possible? He was clearly joking."

"Then why don't you try having him carry you?"

"Uh..."

"Doesn't that just prove it?"

Just as the two were bantering, Yae Star, who was walking in front, suddenly spoke.

"We're here."

"We're here?"

L jumped off Yagami Light's back, showing no signs of being at his physical limit as he had claimed, and quickly went to Yae Star's side.

But when he clearly saw the scene before him, he was completely frozen.

"This is..."

Appearing before them was a space like an underground cave, and within the walls were countless prison cells blocked by iron bars, each containing a human-shaped shadow.

On the walls of the cave extended objects like blood vessels, connecting to a huge object in the center of the cave's open and flat area, resembling a golden trophy.

Each time the thick blood vessels pulsed, the shadows within the prison cells would become slightly weaker, and what could be heard was a sound like thousands of people whispering at the same time.

"What on earth... is this thing..."

"So, you've come."

Just then, Yae Star, Yagami Light, and L saw a figure slowly walking out from behind the golden giant chalice.

"It really is you..."

Seeing the face that was almost identical to his own, only more mature, Yagami Light narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth.

"Yagami Light... you created all this, what for..."

"I have nothing to say to you."

The Yagami Light from the other world directly interrupted Yagami Light's words.

He turned his gaze to Yae Star and slowly spoke.

"Do you know what this is? This is the 'Holy Grail,' the supreme object created by gathering the twisted desires of all mankind, based on the seven deadly sins."

"And now, through your world, I have finally collected the original sins represented by the seven twisted desires: Sakura Rikka's wrath, Reis Jining's greed, Misa Amane's lust, Kiyomi Takada's envy, and the three of you here..."

"Clearly a counterpart to me, yet for some reason, you gave up the goal of creating a new world, content with the status quo, representing the slothful Yagami Light; possessing a strong desire for the truth, like a moth drawn to a flame, endlessly seeking, symbolizing the gluttonous L; and you..."

Yagami Light stared directly into Yae Star's eyes, saying each word distinctly.

"Relying on that power that comes from who knows where, crushing everything underfoot, self-righteous, representing the 'arrogance' of... 'Mask'."

"The three of you are the last three that the Holy Grail lacks..."

"Are you kidding me here?"

Before Yagami Light could finish speaking, Yae Star interrupted impatiently, not giving the other party another chance to speak, and directly began his own tirade.

"You create your Holy Grail, that's your business, but you're forcing things here, I'm really starting to question your brain."

"What arrogance, gluttony, sloth?"

"If you're going to force it like that, wouldn't I just encompass all seven deadly sins myself? Anger born from wanting to protect those around me, greed born from wanting to obtain privileges and money, envy that doesn't allow gods to claim to be superior to humans, sloth in the school who clearly possesses the power to change everything yet lazes around, gluttony who can never get enough to eat, arrogance who considers himself the strongest and invincible, and... um..."

Speaking of which, Yae Star paused for a moment and said with a smile.

"As for lust... um, I don't really fit that, after all, mine is absolute pure love, and has nothing to do with desire, but if you force it, it can barely be considered a fit."

"No..."

Yagami Light on the side couldn't help but retort: "You, you fit the definition of lust very well... is there any need to force it?"

"Do you understand pure love? Bro? If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."

Yae Star first retorted to Yagami Light like this, and then looked at the other Yagami Light standing in front of the Holy Grail, and said with a chuckle.

"I just want to say one thing."

"If you want to fight, if you want to be enemies, then just directly fight to the death."

"I really don't understand why you have to declare your so-called legitimacy before fighting?"

"Only the weak... like to play the mouth game."

Chapter 522 Kira Breaks Down, I Will Attack in Leo Form

"The weak... the weak! ?"

Hearing this word, Yagami Light seemed to feel immense humiliation, his expression twisted to the extreme, and he shouted in a frenzied tone.

"What do you know! ? I am destined to become the god who creates a new world! People like you can't understand my ideals at all..."

"Who wants to understand you?"

Yae Star waved his hand with some impatience, directly interrupting Yagami Light's words.

"What new world without sin, what becoming a god, what the desires of all mankind, I don't care at all, I'm not here to understand you, but to crush you to ashes and completely eliminate you, of course, this is also your own fault, launching an attack on our world, then being eliminated by us is also a matter of course."

"You... you?"

Yagami Light laughed weakly twice, looking at Yae Star standing there condescendingly, his brown eyes had completely turned into a scarlet color.

"Even at this time... you're still saying these kinds of things... you and I... tell me, for people like us who possess 'unrestrained' qualifications, what is the meaning of those guys around us! ?"
