I Became the Strongest With The Failure Frame【Abnormal State Skill】As I Devastated Everything-Chapter 356 - To Heaven
<Goddess Vysis POV>
That morning———— everything was ready.
Going outside the castle, I looked up at the sky.
Spread out before me was the area used to train the Heroes.
Below this, that underground space extends.
The training area is structured in such a way that the covering of the ceiling of this underground space can be opened.
What did the ancients once do with that underground space?
Even I, a Deity, do not know.
Opening and closing the ceiling also requires a large amount of magic power.
However, it’s better since it did not consume precious Prime Origins.
Clutched in my hand is the device that initiates the activation of the gate.
All that’s left now————
Once this device is operated, the gate to Heaven will open.
At my feet is a crystal ball that I had hidden from outside eyes.
If I pour my magic power into this crystal ball, the ceiling of this underground space will open.
And that———– I started doing. I poured my magic power into the crystal ball.
Before long……
Vibrations resounding below my feet, the ground before my eyes opens up to the left and right.
It’s as if the ground is sliding horizontally.
The structure of this facility isn’t one that can be opened like a double door.
Sitting by the side was the apparatus to operate the Sacraments.
Touching the cone-shaped crystal, I began operating it.
Actualizing the sensation of pouring out my will……
I gave the multitude of Sacraments my will———– my directions and operated them as such.
Soon after……
A white hand is placed on the edge of the ceiling, and one of the large Sacraments reveals its head.
Several other large Sacraments followed the first one.
With the size of their body, one can even say they’re Giants.
These Giant Sacraments look up to the skies.
The next moment————- White wings sprouted from the Sacraments’ backs.
Beautiful. I couldn’t help feeling moved watching them.
These emotions shaking my heart blew away the thought of Nyantan’s betrayal.
[Humans really are no good.]
They are too sh*tty.
[Ahhh…… Because of Nyantan, humans are doomed to eternal suffering.]
When Heaven is cleaned up and I’ve gained more power.
As I thought before, I’m going to play with and kill the humans of this world first.
However……
[First would be~~ Heaven~~♪ For the time being~~ It’s a farewell~~♪]
I had noncommittally sent out pursuers.
However, I don’t care anymore about them getting away now.
To be honest……
Once I’ve told her all about my plan, I don’t even care about Nyantan anymore.
[Hmmm, was I just looking for the surprised expression from an innocent one……? Well———— She isn’t really ignorant, but now I have “them”, don’t I?]
I looked back over my shoulder.
The Fallen Deity————- Wormungandr.
The First Hero————- Ars.
The Void Being————- Yomibito.
My three Divine Servants stood quietly.
Among them, although he has always had an impertinent part in him……
As a conversation partner to pass time, Wormungandr is above the passing mark.
[It’s finally time huh. It hasn’t been that long since I woke up with Prime Origin…… so I’ve hardly been able to take it easy in this world. Geez, it’s not like I myself was busy……. Well, I can take revenge on Heaven, so I guess I should only be grateful huh.]
Wormungandr always opens his mouth.
Perhaps that must be why I’ve always had a half-smile around him.
[Worm, you’re just thinking of killing humans around, aren’t you?]
[If you want my two piece on this matter, I feel that they have increased too much and it’s not a good thing, so shouldn’t their numbers be controlled by Deities———- is what I was thinking. That’s while getting rid of those who’d likely rot the others around.]
Without looking nervous at all, Wormungandr let out a sigh.
[However, that apparently displeased the Chief God. Just like with Loqierra, the Chief God had spoiled all the creatures. However, if they aren’t killed moderately to narrow down their numbers…… I think humans would eventually end up in a terrible state someday. How should I say this…… I think we should intervene and manage them…… otherwise, the humans will ruin themselves. If they’re just left alone, wouldn’t their rate of unhappiness only increase?]
Loqierra’s head is placed in a special box and given to Ars to carry.
We’re going to take her with us and give her a good look of Heaven as it falls into pandemonium.
[Geez, like I said, that’s just boring. It’s because they keep on increasing their numbers that they’re fun as toys~~ If they continue to increase, they will ruin themselves and suffer. If left unchecked, the percentage of those who are unhappy will increase. For short-lived species with a moderate intelligence that is vulnerable to greed, that is quite the spectacle———– They’re just the best of toys there is.]
[However……]
[Ah, I’m going to open the gate now, so you can keep your objections to yourself.]
[Yeah, yeah.]
Spreading out my hands, I started operating the gate activator in my right hand.
I’ve never felt such a pleasant morning breeze before.
Freedom unbounded by anything.
This is it……
This is freedom itself.
I am the only God in this world.
All other beings in existence are but offerings before this God’s games.
Only those chosen by this God are elevated from offerings to servants.
The same goes for Heroes.
The superiors are to be my servants.
The lowly ones are to dance at my tune as mere offerings.
Toys to entertain God.
Many white lights rush into the sky like bolts of lightning.
Thereupon, a horizontal circle appeared high in the sky—————-
A gate appeared.
The inside of the circle is filled to overflowing with white light.
[Ohh, so that’s the way to Heaven.]
The Giant Sacraments spread their wings and took flight.
The problem for these Giant Sacraments would be Jonato’s Sacred Eye.
Jonato’s Sacred Eye attacks Golden eyes flying above a certain altitude.
By that thing’s powerful ray of light……
No matter where they are on this continent, it will shoot them down with that ray.
Of course, that Sacred Eye couldn’t be destroyed.
After all, the destruction of that thing would increase the interference value.
However————- That’s when I arrived.
After many, many years, I had found a way to avoid it being shot by the Sacred Eye.
What kind of method was it?
I changed the nature of its Soul Power.
Once secretly, I tried it with a small flying Sacrament that had the nature of its Soul Power changed.
Incidentally……
The reason why I made it into a small flying Sacrament with extremely reduced fighting ability was as a countermeasure for the interference value.
And even though the flying Sacrament exceeded the reaction altitude of the Sacred Eye———–
It was not shot down.
As a byproduct, even if Heroes killed it, they would no longer gain experience points.
Therefore, no matter how many Sacraments they killed, the Heroes would gain no experience points.
They wouldn’t gain experience points from the Exiled Emperor either.
Yes.
If it was the Sacraments that had the nature of their Soul Power changed……
It would also prevent the Heroes from growing and recovering some of their status due to Hero Level-up.
If there’s something I’m dissatisfied with the Sacraments, it was their inability to possess proper intelligence.
It can’t perform complex autonomous actions.
The guidelines for their actions also need to be provided by others.
This is the overwhelming difference between the Sacraments and the Divine Servants.
[However———— As expected, the ones I really should rely on are the Sacraments and Divine Servants who had my essence huh.]
I’m really glad I didn’t turn that traitor…… Nyantan into a Demigod.
After all, that would be a waste of energy.
Even if it’s just turning one into a Demigod, it still consumes a huge amount of power.
Yeah, even so……
Even when I invested my time and effort for her……
Thinking about her again makes me angry.
I want that Captain, whatever his name is, to catch her and I want her to die a painful death.
[……, ————Well, not like it matters anymore! Nyantan, that sh*tty Fly King…… Anything else, none of that matters! Now, go, my little ones!]
The Giant Sacraments took off.
When suddenly————– a ray of light flashed across the sky.
……It was a direct hit.
[Haaaah?]
Before my eyes, it began crumbling down into pieces———— disintegrating away.
The Gate.
[AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH——————-!?]
The Sacred Eye……
It didn’t destroy the Sacraments……
What it targeted was the gate, crushing it into pieces.
As Wormungandr raised a protective canopy above us with his hand, we watched the gate disappear.
[Arara……]
Watching all that happen, I could only be dumbfounded———-
[Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm……………….. Well, as expected…… That’s just sh*tty.]
Unlike the Sacraments……
I couldn’t just experiment on the gate, which consumes a large amount of Prime Origins to prepare for activation.
In the first place……
I didn’t assume that the gate would be a target for the Sacred Eye’s destruction.
Like, the Golden eyes……
Or perhaps, it could be dependent on one’s Soul Power……
Was there a factor that makes something a target for that thing’s destruction?
[…………Ahh. Ahhhh……. Ahh, this is just irritating. How should I say this…… It’s quite infuriating…… Hmmm……]
Looking away from the disappearing pieces of the gate, I turned towards the Deities.
[Laaa~~ Lalaaa~~ Lalaaaaala~~ Laaaa~~♪]
[What’s the matter, Vysis? That’s too much burden on your mind that you’re starting to escape reality?]
[No, no~~. That isn’t it, I can open the gate again if I want to.]
I still have quite a lot of Prime Origins in stock.
Taking a deep breath for a moment, I steadied my gaze.
[Activate all the Sacraments with low Anti-Deity Augments on the grounds around the Royal Capital———– Taking the northern route to the Capital of Jonato…… deploy them for the destruction of Sacred Eye. Hmm———- Just in case, shall I give instructions to Queen Jonato via magical war pigeon to have the function of the Sacred Eye deactivated? That Sacred Eye ended up being that Queen’s self-identity…… so I wonder if she’d obediently listen to me…… Rururuuuu~~♪]
Even though it may not reach my eyes yet……
I could feel the smile returning back to my lips.
[Ah, also…… While we’re stopping or destroying that Sacred Eye, let’s immobilize the sh*tty eyesores coming from the west, Fly King and Mad Emperor~~ Lalalaaaa~~♪ Assign some of the Sacraments to sweep them off their feet~~♪ Won’t let them get in waaaayayayay~~♪ Well, I guess it might be a good idea to crush those annoying flies first~~♪ You feel good over there, oi?]
Looking at the box containing Loqierra with vacant eyes……
[However, what a shame~~]
Pan!
I clapped my hands together with a smile.
[In any case………… The one who wins the end is me♪]
T/N: I’m not sure what the appropriate title for Yomibito is. I don’t know what the Author is basing it on. Searching google, Yomibito could mean Poetry Author, which could mean the kyo/yuu/uro/utsuku (虚) part of his title could mean Illusions, fantasy or falsehoods. But then, the Yomibito from that Poetry Author isn’t written the same way as this Yomibito, so I’m not really sure. The Yomibito (ヨミビト) written here was with katakana, JP characters for foreign words, which was also how the Author writes the otherworlders’ names in their status and when characters of this world talks about them. There’s also that other Yomibito, which was something from a Japanese VN, World End Syndrome, that were apparently superhuman zombies that retain their human appearance, having bloodshot eyes and disgruntled appearance. In any case, I just went with Void Being.
