What are the first two floors of the box garden like?

This question has always been of great interest to the members of the middle and lower classes of the Hakonoi.

But there are very few people who really know this in the box garden.

◇

The second floor of the box garden.

This is a space where there is no land and no sea.

The sun and moon shine in the sky, and the stars shine brightly.

Floating in the clouds in the sky, scattered buildings can be faintly seen.

Between the white clouds and the floating buildings, there is a wandering halo of colorful light.

In a floating pavilion with flying eaves and arches, two people are sitting opposite each other.

On a low table in the middle is a chessboard with a pot of sake next to it.

"The little ones down there seem to be a bit of a big fuss."

It was a pink Shota who looked like he was only twelve or thirteen years old.

Dressed in a delicate robe with a blue background and white edges, the young man's face was delicate and slightly immature, but his slender eyes flashed with the wisdom of seeing through everything in the world.

"Tianzun is worried?"

It is hard to imagine that such a teenager would have the title of "Tianzun".

The young man who was called "Tianzun" looked at the young man opposite with a hint of a smile.

The young man was dressed in white and had white hair, and there was a little cinnabar in the center of his eyebrows.

There is a faint flow of brilliance under the transparent skin.

"Worried? If you are worried, there is indeed a point, that little Zoroastrian guy is also a part of the final trial of mankind, right? ”

"Yes."

Young Tianzun nodded, "That's it, when that little guy is defeated, the countdown to the end of the human race, which has been stagnant, will start flowing again." ”

“…… That's why I strongly oppose Shakya's decision. ”

"Haha, if only Shakya could listen to you. The supreme ruler of Buddhism has long been your Garan. ”

Young Tianzun laughed.

The young man with white hair and white clothes is the god Garan.

And the young man who was called Tianzun opposite him was called Daode Tianzun with his full name.

"That aside, Garan should know what it means for the countdown to the Doomsday Calamity to start flowing anew......"

Garan pursed her lips and remained silent.

Represents the timeline of the coming of the Doomsday if it starts to flow normally. Then it means that the highest part of humanity's final trial, the wind of decadence, will reappear.

The strongest godslayer, it also has the ability to serve as a time limit for the other final trials.

A being who is summoned from the end of time and departed to the other side of the memory.

Let faith be abandoned, fear be forgotten, research cut off, invisible and faceless demon king.

Let countless substances and concepts be consumed at the end of time.

That's one of the very few existences that is clearly identified as a single number.

"The final test of humanity...... The little girl Lingge of the Heavenly Movement has been weakened, the third permanent mechanism has not yet matured, and the dystopia has been erased by the children, and if the little Zoroastrian guy who represents 'absolute evil' is also passed, the time for the wind of decadence to descend in a complete form is not far off. ”

Garan looked worried.

"Isn't that right? You and I would like to see what it will be like for humanity to finally get to that point. ”

Tianzun squinted his eyes slightly, and turned his head to look at the auspicious clouds flowing around him.

"But. Human beings cannot represent everything, and whether the final trial is passed or not, the disaster caused will be irreparable. ”

Garan sighed.

"In this world, there is not only human beings as an intelligent race."

"So, are you worried that humanity that has come to an end will self-destruct?"

Faced with Tianzun's inquiry, Garan nodded wordlessly.

"So, what if it's not a human who clears the final trial?"

"Is this going to happen?" Garan looked at Tianzun with puzzlement.

"The final trial of human beings can only be passed by humans, this is the rule of Hakoiwa. We used to think that Hakowa was the center of all worlds, but not long ago I realized that we were all wrong. ”

Tianzun smiled. The words that came out made Garan's face turn pale.

“…… Tianzun said that the little monster is here...... Gensokyo? ”

"It's not just that."

Tianzun shook his head.

"I've observed that little monster, and his body is stained with a lot of traces of other worlds, and one of them makes me very concerned, and I found a lot of interesting things under the vine......"

"What's interesting......?"

Garan's eyes widened slightly.

He knew the Tianzun in front of him very well. To be able to make the quiet and inactive say something interesting must be earth-shattering in the eyes of others.

“…… yes, it's really funny, don't you think, this uninvited friend? ”

In an instant-

The wind and clouds change color. Heaven and earth shook.

The monstrous demonic aura disturbed the space on the second floor of the entire box garden.

Garan frowned, and the surface of her body was full of light.

On the other side, Tianzun still closed his eyes lightly as if nothing had happened, quietly waiting for the arrival of the third person.

Just when Garan couldn't help but want to summon the golden body, the raging demonic qi suddenly contracted rapidly, and finally formed a figure in the void outside the pavilion where the two of them were.

Black clothes and black hair, unstoppable.

“…… It's still a clean world. ”

Opening his eyes, the eyes raised at the top of his tail exuded a compelling pressure, and the man in black and black hair stepped lightly, and his body instantly appeared in the gazebo.

Ignoring the tense Garan, the man sat straight down, his eyes scanning the surroundings, and finally slowly landed on Tianzun.

"Who is this friend yet?"

“…… Friend? ”

The man repeated in a low voice, then shook his head slightly.

"Nine heavens and ten earths, those who dare to call themselves my friends will not survive one in a billion."

【Good...... What a terrible destructive arrogance...... As if he was willing to destroy all things......]

A cold sweat began to break out on Garan's forehead.

[This person...... Could it be a number of demon kings......? 】

Tianzun showed no anger at the man's arrogant answer, and he always had the same smile on his face from beginning to end.

However, Garan was amazed to see that with this pavilion as the center, the space on the second floor of the box garden began to crack.

Radial fissures filled the sky almost instantly.

Tianzun, and this man who is so powerful that he seems to be a number of demon kings began to compete in secret.

Garan wisely didn't get involved.

For a long time, the second layer of space was always on the verge of shattering, crumbling but as if it was forever missing the last straw that broke the camel's back.

“…… Hahaha, yes, it can make me look at each other. ”

The man burst into laughter.

The second layer of the Hakoin, which was standing on the verge of destruction, finally regained its stability, and Garan was secretly relieved.

At this time, under the gaze of Daode Tianzun, the man spoke again.

"My name is the Emperor of the Demon Realm, the Emperor of the Abandonment of the Heavens."
