It's like looking into a small jar and somehow finding a bottomless pit. Something that cannot be contained in the human heart is peeking out. The bottom of Morgana's heart is connected to something else, reflecting a false image.
　It's the eye, Rene thought.

　For example, if you took a camera close enough to a human body to capture an image, you would see nothing but an unrecognizable skin tone all over the place.
　No matter how huge the skyscraper was, if you tried to shoot it from a distance of 10cm, all you would see was a concrete wall.
　That was the only reason why Morgana's mind seemed to be a white-washed plane.
　Now, with a slight movement of the camera, Rene could see who was behind the door of Morgana.

　An eye with such brightness and pressure that it seemed to be the sun itself was looking at René through Morgana.
　An overwhelming and powerful will that no man can or should understand.

　Rene's perception of emotions is not a thought, but a look at a state of mind that is difficult to verbalize.
　But the sheer volume of information contained in his gaze made René recognize it as a voice.


"Destroy it.


　For example, it is the thunder of a stormy night.
　For example, it is the roar of a falling stone.

　There was no humanity involved, not even "ruthlessness".
　It is the will of the Absolute, who thinks of Rene as a pebble in the way.

　Is it a miracle or a curse?
　A woman whose heart has become a screen that reflects the will of the Great God. A machine of faith that reads the wishes of the Great God and faithfully realizes his will, reinterpreted (encoded) on a human scale.
　That was Morgana.

"............

　Rene slumped.
　It was like a shock that shook his brain.
　The bladder that had been left behind when his body was undead was automatically vomited out, soaking Rene's feet.

"Oh, is that ......?　I'm not sure.　Isn't the presence blocking spell broken?

　She was so shocked that she could neither fear nor despair.
　All I could do was let go.

"Hey, hello?　What's wrong?　You're not ......, are you? What's wrong with you?　Hey!　You're under some kind of spell?

　A worm crawling on the ground can't understand human philosophical thinking.
　In the same way, Rene has been touched by something too advanced for humans to understand.
　The fact that such a thing exists. And the fact that such a thing wishes for its own demise: ......

It's coming ....... I'm not sure what to do, but I'm sure I'll be able to do it.
　I'm not sure what to do.　I'll carry you on my back!

　You'll be able to get a lot more than just a pair of shoes.
　The evil goddess who appeared before Rene was nothing more than a droll and suspicious saleslady, and the goddess was supposed to be nothing more than her equal.

"Hahahahahahahahaha!　I found her, the Rose of Hell!　Let's get rid of all the humiliation of that day!
"Hey, Erminio. What's wrong with you?
Yeah?　If you ask me, ......, I don't know what you're up to. Be careful with that.
...... Oh no. Hey, Princess. That bearded bandit knows how to fight me, and even if I hide my face, he'll know who I am if we fight.　Are you okay?
　I can't fight these five anyway, can I?

　Rene had somehow misunderstood. "That's the extent of God's power.
　They were only manifestations of what Rene had seen on ...... the level of human perception in order to interact with people.
　The pressure is different. The size of the consciousness is different. Different levels of existence. ......!

Wait, who are you?　Are you human?　Why are you running away with him on your back?　You're the one who defeated the Rose Princess of Hell?
It doesn't look like you're protecting her.
What? !　You're a human being, but you're siding with the evil undead?　You're a human being, but you're siding with the evil undead!
　You who defy the teachings of the gods!　Take the sword of justice!
Sir, let's go after him while he's screaming!

　It's something people don't understand and shouldn't understand. But Rene has touched the consciousness of it.


　To a mind with an enormous amount of information that cannot be processed by the human consciousness.
　Rene knew his own insignificance.

I'm not going to get caught.
Oh, my God!
Flashbang ......?
d*mn it, you guys need to recover!
"Cure Sight!

　They call it 'God'. What a happy illusion. They think they understand a higher being that they can never understand by calling it 'God'.
　It is a kind of trivialization.
　But it is probably the right answer. Once you know the truth, you can no longer do anything about it.

"How long can you get away with this?　Blow it up!
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!　Joke's on you. ......
Hey, you're not gonna blow me up, are you?
Get ahead of them, Edgar!　You're going to have to knock down a couple of houses to stop them!　If these fools complain, I'll pay for it!
"Aye aye.

　What can I do but bow down on my knees? I can't even pray.
　Rene has learned that everything is futile.
　There is no other way to describe it.

There!
"Ah!　......... ......!
Okay, you're hit!
Yeah!　Nice work, Erminio!
Surround it!
You, over there!

...... ......- - ......... ...--...... Oh, it's connected.
　So it seems that because you touched the ...... Great God (that one), you were forced to raise your level of consciousness and are now halfway to enlightenment.

"You son of a ......!
"Geez, Gef!　What the hell?　A smoke bomb?
Poisonous smoke screen. Stand down!
"Resist. ...... won't be enough. Blow it up, Loretta!
Blow it up, Loretta!　≪Windblow!
...... Princess, if you're there, I'd like you to respond to me. ...... You know, if I don't, it's going to be over. ......?
　I don't want to do it anyway.

I'm not going to do it for now." "It's just fine, so let's adjust it a bit.
　I will return your consciousness to your human form. But that's all I can do. You'll have to get back on your feet.

　She heard the voice of the Great One and felt as if she were wrapped in its hands.

　Rene felt as if he were lying on the cold cobblestones.
　She was rolling.
　It was the city of Teirakainen. It was night, it was cold. Nearby lay Tracy, her legs burned by some kind of magic.

　Renai felt as if she had lost something. It was as if a hole had been left in her heart.
　The only thing that remained was the feeling of loss, that an irreplaceable and important piece of wisdom had been taken away.
　However, I no longer felt ■■.

　■■?　What is ■■■? A while ago René had almost understood the concept, but now he didn't. But thanks to the loss of ■■, Rene was able to see the present.

　There was white smoke in the air. Poisonous smoke spewed out from a smoke bomb-like tube. Buildings on both sides of the road were collapsing as if they had been hit by a bomb or something, blocking the road. The closed mortar-like structure is filled with poisonous smoke. A strong wind, created by magic, was blowing the poisonous smoke away.

"Princess, please ......!

　Tracy, disguised as the face of Miaranse, was looking at Rene as she fell.
　She was coughing up blood. The undead Rene is immune to poison, but the flesh and blood Tracy is not.

The smoke shouldn't have lasted more than 20 seconds. Let's wait for the holy beast to catch up and set it off.


"Mm, let's do that.

　Five adventurers surrounded Rene and the others.
　Two holy knights in full armor.
　A bearded bandit holding a magic item that looked like a short magic wand.
　A wizard with a figure that no longer resembled underwear.
　And a nobleman of vanity standing on the rubble with the moon on his back.
　"Drouet the Decisive."

"Weak indeed. Crawl on the ground, you lowly undead.
　But be honored. You will now join the illustrious ranks of Erminio Drouet.
　Yes!　You will be my bread and butter!　Even if it means the greatest destruction imaginable.

　The poisonous smoke of stalling cleared.
　I can feel the holy beast approaching.
　If I don't defeat it, it will.

　My hands and feet are shaking and I can't move them.
　But the fact that I could move my arms and legs was better than before.

　For a moment, Rene almost had a partial understanding of the Great God.
　

　--How can I fight with such a ...... thing staring at me?

　But.

　--But that's no reason for me not to fight ......!

　I don't know if Tracy brought it with her or if she's been holding onto it for a long time, but the cursed red blade was lying nearby.
　I picked it up and said.

He picked it up and thrust it into his left chest.

　He plunged it into his left chest.

"What the hell?

　Erminio's astonished voice.
　The cursed magic power penetrated Rene's body, damaging even the main body.
　A dull pain that cracks the very foundations of existence. The blade spilled and scattered in a spray.

　--Fight ............!

　As if clinging to the pain, Rene stood up.
