I don't know how many years ago.

Although it happened after the birth of Hakoiwa, the exact time and what happened at that time is no one other than the person concerned who knows it clearly.

The depths of endless, lava-strewn volcanoes.

The air smelled pungent with the smell of sulphur, and the wind was mixed with volcanic ash and burned dead wood ashes.

Above the black earth and fiery red magma, there was a gray sky.

It's on the ground, but there's no way for the sun to shine on the land.

Few, if not all, people know that beneath this endless volcanic complex lies a majestic underground palace.

Stepping over the crumbling staircase that seemed to have no end in sight, and seemed to collapse at any moment, Jade Jizi stood at the door of the palace.

In front of him is a tall palace gate.

The stone wall above the palace gate is carved with the banner of the hideous evil (Aksara).

Standing in front of the closed palace gate, Yu Jizi was silent for a long time, and finally pushed open the palace gate.

The sound of the heavy palace door opening was accompanied by a vicious roar from the depths of the palace.

Ignoring the cry that could pierce directly into the depths of people's hearts, Jade Jizi walked into the depths of the palace step by step and stood on the altar.

"Life is not happy, death is also bitter. The origin is born, and the fate falls and is destroyed. ”

As he chanted in a low voice, the surrounding stone pillars lit up with bright flames, illuminating the otherwise dark palace.

An apparition of a three-headed dragon appeared above the altar.

Three pairs of six blood-colored eyes condensed the jade, and the three-headed dragon spoke:

"O thousand-year-old man, I feel the malice in the depths of your soul."

"Rotten? Millennial man? ”

Jade Jizi smiled.

"Yes, no matter how great my prestige is, no matter how beautiful my appearance is, I can't hide the fragility and paleness of life—I am indeed decayed. It should have been self-extinct. What about you? The Demon King who holds the banner of evil high? ”

"I am impermanence, the cycle of endless suffering in the world. Rotten millennial man, the twilight of the gods has not yet come, you should not come here......"

"This is not a cemetery of the gods, and I am not one of those rotten gods, so why can't I come? It's you. Demon Lord of Evil, your spirit is not commensurate with all that you represent. ”

"It's just that the time hasn't come."

"The so-called timing, in the final analysis, is just artificial."

Jade shook her head.

"Since the catastrophe will come sooner or later, it is better to use it for me."

Holding his arms high, the glow emitted by the blood-colored mark on Jade Girl's forehead even obscured the red light in the eyes of the three-headed dragon.

"Zoroastrian incarnation of evil, let me, a rootless duckweed, let you unleash the power that makes the gods and demons tremble in advance!!"

"Let me see if the evil you represent can fight against the millions of gods of the King of the Nether Capital!"

◇

"After that, as I expected, Az. Dahaka defeated the group of gods created by the King of the Hidden Capital with his own strength. ”

The storyteller slowly recounts the past of the year.

"And now? We don't believe you're going to let go of this vicious dog without a backhand. ”

Faced with Purple's questioning. The storyteller nodded, "Of course, although he can repel millions of gods and is invincible, he has a legendary record of being defeated by the 'last hero of mankind', so even if he can use his own ability to simulate and rival the skills of the gift, he cannot imitate the human cosmology." ”

"Head, shoulders, and heart are his weaknesses, and you can defeat him by destroying them in order."

Purple looked at Az in the sky. Dahaca.

Three heads have already been pierced. The shoulders were also framed with wooden stakes.

“…… It seems that someone has tried to deal with him before. ”

"That's right, his head was impaled on the head by a man named Canary with his own companion. The stake on my shoulder was set under my design, and now--only Sixteen Nights can pierce his heart with the help of the one in your house, and the last step can only be done by Sixteen Nights, your brother is a youkai, and he pierces Az. Dahaka's heart is useless. ”

The storyteller didn't say anything like "let me pierce the heart."

He and Purple both knew that Az. Dahaka is not the last enemy.

If it's exposed now. When the gods and demons behind the scenes really appear, the plans they have laid out in advance will be in danger of collapse.

◇

"Hundreds, millions of gods !??"

If what Black Rabbit said is true, then it is no longer a question of whether the opponent is strong or not, but that it cannot be fought at all.

The black rabbit, who was dejected, clenched his fist vigorously in affirmation.

"That thing...... It's true. Not figuratively. In the past, there were more groups of gods in this box garden world. But almost all of them were banished by the oldest demon kings. ”

"Defeat the oldest demon king who is the trial itself. It's simply impossible. As a result, it was later created as a means to fight against the oldest demon kings, which was the secret of the gods and demons that liberated one's spiritual personality and turned into a trial, the 'HostMaster'. This is the prototype of the Bounty Game. ”

This is the real reason why the Game of Gifts is called a game of gods and demons.

In the name of the proxy war between the gods and the demon king, it took countless years to evolve into today's form.

"So, with the permission of the organizer, will you be able to defeat the three-headed dragon? Mo is already a class leader, but he has the authority to host it!! ”

Asukina suddenly thought of this, and looked at the black rabbit with a bit of hope on her face.

However, the black rabbit shook his head bitterly.

"Theoretically, yes. Whether it is a chronicle or a natural disaster, it will become a mutual devouring of trials. But down with Az. Dahaka, or the 'Host Authority' that is enough to seal it, must be the strongest species, or the Celestial Army level with combat specialization...... Lord Yakumo, he ......"

Obviously, Black Rabbit doesn't think that Yakumo Mo, who has the authority to host the host, has the same relationship with Az. The strength of Dahaca's head-on confrontation.

-- A sudden change occurred at this moment.

The scorching flames suddenly fell from the sky, and Asuna reacted immediately, holding the Demon Slayer Holy Sword with a strong swing, and the sword wind blowing up dispersed the fire of purgatory.

"Enemy Attack !!!!!"

Gurley screamed miserably and flapped his wings and flew into the air.

As soon as he finished shouting, a fireball of pursuit was shot from the shade of the trees along the edge. At the same time, a huge enemy shadow from above surrounded everyone.

- A two-headed monster dragon made of white porcelain rock, the only red jade pupil with a flesh body, releases a strange light to catch its prey.

There was no emotion in those eyes, and there was no emotion lodged in this monster.

It is this only impulse that drives this two-headed dragon to slaughter its target prey.

"Hurry up! I'm here to stop it!! Dean took them away!! ”

Asuka rushed forward without thinking about it, and before Asuka could say something, he was grabbed by Dean who was screaming loudly and threw him on his shoulder.

Later, Black Rabbit, Yao, and Pace were also picked up by Dean and quickly left the scene.

The crowd on Dean's shoulders looked at the back of Asukina, who was alone in front of the two-headed dragon, and shouted loudly:

"Tomorrow Na !!!!!!!!" (To be continued.) )
