781 Former Strongest, Returning To Reality
781 Former Strongest, Returning To Reality
Originally that world was meant to save Felicia.
Then it makes sense that the world that has served its purpose will end.
There was therefore no surprise in the situation itself, so Soma was slightly surprised because the sight in front of him was a little unexpected.
The Somas broke into that world by entering the Holy City from the outside.
Somas' physical time should have stopped when they stepped into the Holy Capital, and given that, the Somas back in the real world should be near the entrance to the Holy Capital.
But the sight shown in sight is not, and besides, there are some beings there who have just met.
It was Satya.
"Hmmm... I thought you'd let me travel to the temple, but it's kind of sweet, isn't it?
"Sort of. I'm a meritorious opponent. That's about as much service as I'll give you."
"A meritorious man... you mean this one?
"... Soma, did you actually remember?
"Well, there's something I can't remember."
"Oh, Mr. Soma still had a memory, didn't he? I do think that was tough..."
"As I said earlier, it was a nostalgic place for me, so it wasn't so much. I was confused in the beginning."
"If you're a meritorious man, I think I did a pretty good job this time too!?
and it was Hildegard who appeared on the spot a little late with such words.
But I do think Hildegard would have played an important role there, given that Soma's memory would have been incomplete without Hildegard.
"... Whatever the importance of the role, I've been working hard, is it?
It was somewhat questionable there.
No, I'm not going to tell you that I wasn't working hard, but I honestly only doubt it when people tell me that I was still working specially hard.
"Well, honestly, Hildegard just showed up before you the first night, Soma, and hey. When I say meritorious, I am meritorious..."
"You haven't even met me in the first place."
"... Me too"
"So am I."
"I'd rather! I couldn't do anything while you guys were in school...!? It's sloppy! I wanted to live in school with Soma, too!
"Uh... yeah, I did feel bad about that, I guess I'll just say. Well, even if you could have moved in that world, you wouldn't have been served as a student."
"Hey, why not...!?
Either way, I don't care.
Or before I didn't work hard, that was just to say I was unhappy.
And I wasn't playing as anyone else in the first place, so I had no reason to listen.
"Anyway, I'll come back to that, but I don't know if you're a meritorious person, but technically, including a series of things. Apparently, thanks to you, the rest of the demons are alone."
"Hmm... I was going to tell you that story, but you already knew it"
"This is still God."
"I'm saying it sounds great, but I thought you used to say that the devil still doesn't work?
"I told you... but you realize the rest of us are in one piece"
"This is tough. Well, that includes meritorious people."
It's nothing I'm doing for myself, so it's not like I can lift it that far... and thinking about it, I realized that Fufu and Felicia looked confused.
No, if you look closely, Sheila is also as faceless as usual, but the atmosphere looks somewhat bewildered.
"What's wrong with Sheila, Felicia?
"Oh, what, it doesn't mean something's wrong... because I heard the word, God, earlier..."
"... n, kidding... so it doesn't seem...?
"Oh, speaking of which, you hadn't introduced yourself to the two of us yet. As long as the solid stuff settles down... right, for now, I'm a true god."
"... I've heard rumors, but you were really there"
"Nevertheless, you don't have to respect me, do you? God is not a traitor."
"You're right, but I don't know if you want to tell me... hey, I'm about to go back because I'm a little out of line again, but thanks to you, Soma, the devil is the only one left. Well, technically, they're there too."
"Oh, were you noticed"
Turning his gaze to his voice, it was that boy's demon who was there.
But whoever I was alone didn't seem surprised because I knew I was there.
"What are you talking about? There's no way you're not going to get noticed."
"I snuck in to surprise you even this... I knew if I lost my power so far, I wouldn't even be able to play that much prank"
"I mean, do you want to show me that and say that I'm harmless anymore?
"I know it's not something I can say and believe, but you're actually right. I still exist as a demon for once, but that's all. You won't be able to absorb each other as soon as you're dying, and you don't have to worry about me. Well, I'm worried about you."
That being said, it was somehow soma that the devil had turned his gaze.
Besides, it doesn't seem like the only thing that lives in my eyes is interest somehow.
I didn't feel like understanding the content and shrugged my shoulders.
"I don't have a hobby that I'm happy to be told by a man?
"I do have this look, but it doesn't make sense, does it? Age, of course, and gender. Do you mean, originally the devil doesn't have a gender? Because the devil's taste depends only on the nature of his soul"
"... soma is as strange as ever, but she likes you a lot"
"... n, self-inflicted?
"What do you mean, it?
"Aren't you going to deny it? In a double sense."
"Do you say, Sheila, why don't you return that to yourself, too?
"... your sister too?
It's getting busier along the way, but Soma shrugs her shoulders again.
I just realized that the devil has a lot of things, so I'm not going to tell you what it's like to be a devil now.
"Whatever it is, it doesn't change my answer when it comes to appearance as a man."
"Um, really... should I have made my appearance a woman too? Even though you don't have a gender, your appearance has already been fixed with this, so it's hard to change it now..."
"Wouldn't that be nice? It doesn't matter what you look like. I think it's the contents that matter, don't you?
"You can say whatever you want because you're other human resources."
"Actually, it's someone else. Besides, if you're going to help me out here at all when I'm with you, I'd appreciate it, honestly. Although the devil is all that's left, I've used most of the power I've been accumulating."
"It was... sorry"
"No, no, this isn't your fault, and it's what I did on my own. It's not about you feeling responsible."
"Hmmm... well sure, if we can get help, I'd only appreciate that..."
Although we've done well so far, it's not always the same again next time.
If I had the chance to get any information at all, I would never have gone beyond it.
... Instead, the man told me I wanted to give him a break.
"It's only when you get it and you don't want it to happen that it sucks. In order to avoid it at all, we need information.... If this is a ruse, it's a big deal."
"Well, at least, you're sure it wasn't my ruse. However, as it turns out, it doesn't make a big difference... not that it's a substitute, but let's just say we give him some information to like. Save it for the last demon."
That's what the devil said, with a grin he seemed to be good at.
And.
"- No, you don't."
It was concurrent with words.
The demon's mouth, which was about to speak something, stops in a half-way form, and red and black liquid is spit out of its mouth instead of words.
A blow that emerged from the void tore the demon apart.
'Cause now there's no more demons left.'
That's how one girl appears on the spot with those words.
That's a very familiar girl.
The girl - Lina - had just turned her emotionless eyes to the Somas without seeing anything about the mutilated demons.
