Song of Heaven 43 "The God Eater"

Returning to the summit church again, Rin at this time has exuded a different temperament from when he first came, accompanied by a little starlight emerging from the portal.

The "Prince of Light", the "Godslayer", descended on the battlefield.

Because of this, he was no longer ready to run away this time. If anyone is going to stand in their way, then they will be killed.

Following the route in his memory line, when he went to the upper area, he was also "ambushed" by Jessica, and was taken aback by her actions.

"Wow! Hee-hee...... Did we scare you? ”

However, Rin knows that Jessica is not his enemy. It was also during the "68 deaths" with him that he silently derived the idea of "protecting Jessica".

"Jessica."

"Huh?! How do you know our names...... Feed!! Where are you going to take us, hey! ”

"Don't talk, come with me."

According to the pre-booked route, he pulled Jessica and arrived at the location of the Tolerance Institute at a time when no one had noticed.

With just a flick of the blade in his hand, the entire gate collapsed. And that gate, like broken glass, was easily blasted open by Rin's sword, and its posture was not lost to the "Sword Emperor Harvey", who was also a user of Hypernetus.

His own mother, Angelica. She sacrificed herself to give Rin the "theocracy of tolerance", giving him the power to truly fight against Nemesis and Sif .

According to his predetermined route, he rescued Fucaroran who was in a jar. After contacting the headquarters to bring her back, Rin began to prepare for her next job like a machine.

Jessica had been following him. I also noticed that it seemed that it was because of an inexplicable mysterious aura that resisted the process of "luck absorption" by himself, and it did not affect him at all.

Although Jessica felt some doubts, it was more "happy". All along, she has not been treated by other members of the Arc Star Church, and she also wants to find a friend who is "not affected by her abilities" and have a good conversation.

"Na, this little brother, we still like you~ I don't know why, we always want to get close to you...... Can you just let me follow along? ”

"Please, take care of yourself if something happens on the road."

After gaining Angelica's godhead, Rin behaved more or less coldly.

I don't know if it's because he has experienced too much death that has made him numb, or if he wants to avenge Angelica...... It's all unknown.

After he had prepared Fcaloran to jump coordinates, trouble found him in that instant.

Appearing here is none other than the "Emperor" Sister Geromia. She also noticed Rin Yi's sword slashing through the large iron door of the Tolerance Research Institute and entering the place as if no one was around.

"Yo, looks like you've found good prey...... Wait, are you ...... 'Son'? Your breath is similar to that of the Forgiving Lord. ”

"You know me, huh? So...... Acquaintances get out of here, and my targets are only Bishop Sif and the underground 'Nemesis', and I know who you are, and the fact that you are an 'undercover agent'. ”

"Oh, Mr. Harvey sent me to pick me up, so I'm free...... By the way, since I can feel the 'mysterious aura' on you, then my 'dog leash' will trouble you. ”

Rin nodded and came to Geromia. He simply stretched out a finger and tapped her neck, and the bright red prohibition in her body emerged, shattering like brittle glass.

After the restraints that bound her were lifted, Geromia was truly liberated.

"Whew...... Call...... I am saved, otherwise I will really be trapped here for the rest of my life, then, I am probably not needed here, take care, 'Holy Son'." ”

"Well, I will, take Jessica and leave, and then I guess something will happen here that I can't even predict."

Rin was exceptionally calm at this time. In Geromia's eyes, she subconsciously compared him to "the man who often calls herself", and she didn't seem to see any difference, and the expressions of the two were basically the same indifference.

The tone in which he spoke at this time was quite like the Sword Emperor Harvey.

That one of the Divine Sword Emperors with unfathomable strength and known as the "Titan Hunter" is also one of the super-level combat forces of the Star Alliance.

As the man who made himself go undercover in the third world, the man who bored himself. Not only did Geromia want to slaughter him when she asked him for wages, but she also wanted to stab him twice in the back while he wasn't looking.

In this regard, Gelomia also had no intention of acting with him, so she also decided to return to the Star Alliance, and by the way, Jessica was also carried.

"So, I'm leaving."

After Geromia leaves with Jessica through the Genesis Alliance's gateway, Rin begins to confirm her current goal.

The mission to rescue Fukaroran has been accomplished. In addition, Jessica and Jeromia, who had lifted the ban on the "Emperor", were brought back to the safe area, and the work of "Defeat Nemesis" and "Eliminate Sif Sif" was not done.

Di Duran didn't know where he had gone, so he probably followed him secretly...... He didn't think much of it, either.

He decided to ignore the existence of other "mimics". First go to the lower echelons to defeat the "Nemesis", and then confront Bishop Sif and drag her from the hypocritical throne to end her life.

Along the way, it seems that because the "power of fate" is attached to him, he is not hindered by others.

However, this is not the case.

Because the mimicry lurking here has a very keen aura and power perception. Because Rin was given a godhead by Angelica, it was more appropriate to say that they were unwilling to approach Rin than to be "stopped by fate" and not let Rin meet them.

But, despite this, two mimics found him. One is Sister Ludi, whom she knows, and the other is a nun she has not seen much before.

She has a fairy-like appearance, a bumpy figure, long flowing hair with light green and yellow, and wears a hunter-style nun costume, which does not look like a human being.

She is Mother Alyssa of the "Judgment" and one of the few primordial lawgivers in the Third World.

Although in the previous reincarnations, Rin had never met Sister Alyssa. But he seemed to know her true identity for a long time, and blurted out her name.

"Mother Alyssa, and ...... Sister Ludy, we've met before. ”

Alyssa saw that Rin seemed to have known her for a long time, and she also carefully sensed the familiar aura emanating from him. In the end, she judged that this familiar atmosphere was no different from that of "Bishop Angelica".

"With this familiar aura, could it be that you are the 'Holy Son' that Angelica has in mind? Although Mistress Angelica did not accompany you, this familiar atmosphere ...... You can't go wrong, it's Mistress Angelica, she's right there for you. ”

"That's right, Mother Alyssa...... No, you should be called 'Yamaus, the Lawgiver of the Rulings.'" ”

Lu Di looked at Sister Alyssa beside her with a very shocked expression. Although she knew that she was not an ordinary quasi-lawyer, Rin used the identity and title of "perfect lawyer" to call this Mother Alyssa, "the lawgiver of judgment - Yamaus".

"This ...... Alas, it seems that the acquisition of the 'Godhead' of Lord Angelica is also recorded in the prophecy, and I should have remembered it sooner. ”

"It's okay, Mother Alyssa, I think you know what I'm here for."

"Well, knowing that the Holy Son will bring us 'light', we have waited until today to come to you, who have now attained the 'Godhead...... Then, I'll gather the other sisters to help you. ”

"No need, just open the ban on 'Nemesis' for me, if it's Mother Alyssa, you should be able to do it."

However, when she heard "Open the Nemesis Seal Ban", Mother Alyssa also seemed to be embarrassed and worried.

She said: "To fight against the Nemesis who possess the power of God, my Son, with all due respect, it is not wise for you to be a person with a 'godhead' today. ”

"Why?" Rin also asked rhetorically.

"Because...... I have never seen such a thing as 'Nemesis' that cannot be summed up by common sense, and I have died many times at the hands of Nemesis when I was a primordial lawgiver who was not endowed with 'humanity' by Lord Angelica. ”

After hearing this, Rin just showed a confident smile and slowly said this sentence:

"If you know what you can't do, that's one of the 'splendor of humanity,' Mother Alyssa...... If you don't try it, how do you know the results? ”

"Your Son...... Don't ...... We have lost Lord Angelica, and we cannot lose you, Lord Son! ”

Seeing that Alyssa still maintained a blocking attitude towards herself, Sister Ludi, who had been silent on the side, opened her mouth to ask them:

"If you gather the combat power of the 'Full Arc Star Church', what are the odds of victory?"

Mother Alyssa immediately replied:

[Fifty percent.] 】

"Then fifty percent, Lord Holy Son, please shield the sea of consciousness of Bishop Shif, and we will immediately gather all the sisters and accompany you to attack the underground and destroy the 'Nemesis'."

At this time, Sister Ludi was ready to live to die. Immediately afterward, driven by Alyssa's power to "adjudicate the Word", the nuns of the Quasi-Lawgiver who were still wandering in the underground area gathered and bowed down in front of Rin.

They swore an oath in front of Rin that they were bound to take down the goddess of revenge, and with the attitude of seeing death as home, they read out in unison, and recited with great words:

【Holy Son...... We have lost our homeland, and we only hope that this battle will be victorious, and when we die, our bones will be buried under this holy mountain, and we will be buried in this world for eternity. 】

[For the sake of the Holy Son, for the sake of Bishop Angelica, for the sake of the Holy Mountain, and for the sake of the hometown we love, we are willing to die in battle. 】

For the Arc Church. 】

Sister Ludi the "Priestess", Sister Dudu the "Hermit", Sister Baraia the "Magician", and Sister Alyssa "The Judge".

There are only four of them, and they are the last watchmen of the Arcstar Church, and the nuns who have been with the Arcstar Church for the longest time since the Trial of Tolerance.

Even though there were only four of them, and there were only four of them, they recited such a tragic slogan that made Rin feel compassion again.

Rin knew that even if there was one more person, he didn't want them to die in the ground, at the hands of the goddess of revenge.

As long as they are allowed to open the seal and ban for themselves. Then, Rin will use Angelica's power to open the portal between the stars and forcibly send them back to the Star Alliance at the moment when the Nemesis appears.

Rin can do this now, after all, Angelica has entrusted everything she has to Rin. In order to wait for the right time, let Rin break all this deadlock and lead everyone back safely.

So, after coming to the underground area, Rin and the four direct nuns took the elevator that led to the underground, and their hearts were undisturbed and undisturbed.

As she was about to reach the bottom, Sister Ludy seemed to remember something, and asked Rin:

"By the way, Holy Son...... Sister Flocaroran, is she alright? ”

"I've got her back."

"Really? That's good, I hope she doesn't show a sad face when she hears about me. ”

Rin knew that Sister Ludy was planning to give her life in the battle against the "Nemesis". She was well prepared, and that's why she asked herself these questions.

For her, the most important thing to worry about is Sister Flocaroran. Although she has done a lot of things to be sorry for her, she really takes care of Fucaroran as her own sister.

But Rin won't let them die, even if there is an existence like the "Lawgiver" present, it will be difficult to resist the attack of the "Nemesis" who ignores space and laws, and there is no way to fight against a powerful being like the Nemesis.

The kind of attack that "ignores the process" and focuses only on the "result of death" is the divine power possessed by the "Nemesis". If there was no level of power equivalent to the "Heavenly Sage" level, it was estimated that it would be difficult to resist her terrifying moves.

Soon, the five of them came to the ban. Under Rin's gaze, they slowly drove their own "mark" powers, preparing to lift the ban on the goddess of revenge, break in, and destroy the goddess of revenge.

After a few minutes, the light on the hands of the four nuns gradually dissipated. Realizing that after the "Nemesis" lifted the seal, it was likely to attract Bishop Sif Shif, and Rin immediately activated Angelica's "portal" ability.

"Your Son...... You're ......"

"You must go back to safety, and leave it to me."

"Holy Son! Holy Son ......"

Accompanied by the chaotic and incomprehensible voices of the four of them, an energy born from the void emanated from Rin's hands, slowly bringing them into it, forcibly turning them back into the Star Alliance.

This emergency portal is also a gift from Rin to them, full of "hope for life".

Immediately afterward, the ban was lifted. The figures of the three "goddesses of revenge" also appeared in front of Rin in an instant.

He gritted his teeth and walked into the forbidden place, came to the facility where the Nemesis was sealed, and faced the sleeping Nemesis, holding the blade of Hypernetus in his hand.

Unlike before, the blade of Hypernetus emitted a different holy light than before, opening up a new path for him and illuminating the direction in which he was going.

At this time, it was not Nielai or Neber who lodged in Hypernetus.

Rather, it was born among them, fused with Angelica's divinity, and a new existence was born-

A new being, called Eir, slowly emerged from Hypernetus.

Her appearance is somewhat similar to Angelica. But with some of the basic features of "Nelai", such as the dragon's tail, and her extremely revealing way of dressing, the appearance of "Dragon Maid" has not changed much.

However, her white gradient blue hair, and the blue-pink gradient crystal eyes, reminded Rin of Angelica.

"Hi~ my dear little master, that, what do you need a concubine to do for you?"

"Nielai...... No, Mom, it turns out that you have always been there for me. ”

"It's not the little master's mother~ El Ke is a new form of 'Nelai', so ...... Yikes! They're waking up, they're waking up! ”

Under Al's reminder, Rin held Hypernetus in his hand, looked at the three Nemesis floating into the air, slowly erected their bodies, and asked Rin in a terrifying and majestic voice:

[Why do ...... 'man full of divinity' prevent the birth of 'despair'? 】

Why should ...... 'man full of divinity' covet the truth of 'tolerance'? 】

Why should ...... 'man full of divinity' reject the death of the gospel?' 】

Why...... Why...... We are the 'goddesses of vengeance,' the messengers of the 'divinity,' the ones who have brought down divine punishment for the birth of the gods. 】

Rin didn't want to listen to their nonsense, and in the constant cycle of death, he was also killed by three Nemesis.

I also came here because I wanted to hold the "one-arrow hatred". In order to kill them, Rin stripped them of their "divinity", leaving them into annihilation, unable to get out of it.

"'Al'...... Please! Show your true strength! ”

"Look at the concubine's body~ dear little master."

Guided by the light, Hypernetus was gradually enveloped in light. Gradually, it evolved into a new form that surrounded the starlight and combined all the characteristics of "long blade", "wide blade", and "spear blade".

God-Eater ...... Is this your power? Al. ”

"Yes~ The concubine has been preparing for a long time...... A gift for His Royal Highness the Little Prince. ”

"Sure enough, Mom, you've always been by my side."

"Oops~ I was discovered by His Royal Highness the Little Prince, so let's go together, the concubine will cheer you on."

Immediately afterward, the three Nemesis launched an attack on Rin. The three of them fused in the light, emitting an extremely terrifying wave of rays towards Rin.

Rin drove Hypernetus in the "God-Killing Mode", and his whole body merged into the light. Shuttling back and forth from the gap between the wave ray splitting, the light cluster where the three of them were located was a "Baihuang Fierce Beast Claw", tearing apart the fused ball of light and splitting the fusion of the three of them.

[Despair is the supreme prayer, which brings despair, and brings the things that this world has to offer......]

With a chant from Tisiphone, thousands of arrows of light poured out of the split beams, and they struck towards Rin's body at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

['Radiant Sequence, True, Celestial Array'! ] 】

A burst of intense light emanated from Rin's body. Under the fusion of light, and the sequence of sword blades under the "God Killing Mode", an indestructible dazzling array was formed, resisting the invasion of arrow rain.

It's the "Impassable Great Wall", it's the supreme defense move that blocks everything that comes from it, and it's the new power that Rin shows in Godkill mode.

Soon, attacks from Alektor followed.

[The dawn no longer exists in the world, the annihilation of the dawn is the evil result of man, and this is the test that man should endure. 】

Under the chanting of her words, the thousands of splitting light bullets and arrows also regrouped together, turning into a "Heavenly Throwing Spear", which struck towards Rin's "True Heavenly Glory Great Array".

That "Heavenly Throwing Spear" is one of Angelica's powers, and it is a terrifying move that can touch the "truth".

However, Rin also made the next move. Driven by his "Radiant Sequence", the Tianyao Great Array burst open, and with a "Meteor Hope of Return", it absorbed the attack power of all the thousands of arrows and headed towards the Heavenly Spear.

Rin didn't rejoice at this "god-like" power, he was much more serious than ever, because he knewβ€”

[With great power comes great responsibility.] 】

As the "Prince of Light", he should shoulder the responsibility of "killing gods" more than anyone else.

He had no scruples about being able to shoot down the stars so that the gods could fall from under the high throne.

After all, this is who he is now, and there is nothing left to lose.

"Al! Get ready to fight back! ”

"Hehe~ I know, the little prince of the concubine."

After fending off the attack of the "Heavenly Spear", he fell to the ground, driving the energy of the "Radiant Sequence", and countless rays of light formed the shape of flames and surrounded him.

With this blow, he was going to tear the gods high apart, tear them to pieces.

[I pray for you...... Blazing light! O sun of life! Please purify the darkness in my heart, guide the world, and give the world 'light'! 】

"Eat my last blow! You three X species! ”

['Radiant Sequence, True, Flame Lion Array'! ] 】

With the sky-high light, they turned into data shards, curled up like a storm towards the three Nemesis floating in the air. Two of the young ones were shot down from the sky before they could dodge.

The remaining "Silent Evangelizer-Nemesis" ignored what happened to her "sisters" and began to continue to drive her next move-

[The gospel is the evil of this world, and leading people to good is only an unnecessary 'useless act', and you will inevitably ...... the end of the 'end times.'] 】

Under the guidance of her words, the light emitted by Rin, which had formed a storm on the ground, was condensed by her power and became something she controlled.

Although he shot down two Nemesis, the remaining one seems to have the power to "absorb his own moves and apply them", and is the most difficult existence to deal with.

['The Gospel Fallsβ€”This World Is a Hell of the Nose.'] 】

With this move, the huge ball of light suddenly began to split in her hand, forming countless projections of the goddess of revenge. And each of them had a bow of light in their hands, and they shot at Rin with a bow and arrows.

Unlike the arrows of light fired by Tissiphone before, each of these thousands of arrow warheads is a small nuclear bomb with the same power as the "Heaven's Throwing Spear". If you eat this trick hard, it is estimated that it will also hurt you a lot.

Although I don't know if what happens inside the ban will affect the situation outside the ban. Rin had no choice but to drive the energy of his whole body and began to use the "True Heavenly Glory Array" to defend.

However, he knew that the ordinary "Tianyao Great Array" alone could not defend against attacks equivalent to these thousands of nuclear warheads, and he could only use stronger defensive means than it.

"The concubine has already guessed what the little prince is going to do~"

"Come on, Mom, let's work together to get rid of this guy!"

"Then ~ look at the concubine!"

I saw Rin once again change the "God-Killing Form" of Hypernetus and switch to the "God-Killer-Spear Blade Mode", firing several shots into the sky, turning the "Star of Light" that erupted into his power.

Immediately afterward, a steady stream of light erupted from his body, turning into his shield armor, firmly attached to all parts of his and Al's bodies.

[Tianyao Sequence: Born to Die.] 】

He read slowly, only to see that thousands of "Heavenly Throwing Spears" were released from the air and hit his body, causing him no harm at all. At this time, Rin had fallen into a brief "sleep" state, unable to move or fight back.

This "resurrection" move is a skill that allows you to exchange your vitality for a short period of "absolute invincibility".

After using this move, Rin's body will become quite weak. In addition, after the "Dead and Alive" state ends, it will also absorb enemy attacks to restore more stamina to the user.

In other words, those "thousands of Heavenly Throwing Spears" can't hurt Rin at all.

At this moment, the summit church of the Third World began to collapse from the surface of the earth, causing an extremely terrible and extremely violent tremor.

There are no living people in the town at the foot of the mountain, and at the moment when the "Nemesis" lifted the ban, he was killed by the fluctuations of the Nemesis and died in the remnants of the wall.

The entire Holy Mountain Church began to collapse uncontrollably. With the violent shaking from the ground, the building of the summit church also began to crack and disintegrate.

It was in this situation that the Church of the Peak collapsed into the ground along with the Holy Mountain.

After the end of his state of "life after death", Rin slowly absorbs anything around him that can form "light", replenishing his body with life force, that is, "light".

However, the "light" in Rin's body is not just "light", but something else-

【Hope】

It was a precious thing given to him by his companions, and it was also the power that Angelica had given him the power to transform "hope" into strength after choosing to give him divinity.

As long as hope remained in his heart, he could not be defeated. This is also the power that he was previously endowed by "Dagama", the "Lawgiver of Hope", and the real power it endows.

As long as people still believe in "hope" and believe in the existence of hope, Rin will not be defeated.

This is the true power that Rin, the "Lawgiver of Hope", has been given.

At this time, he blessed Angelica's divinity, and also gained a lot of "hope" in the cheering of his companions. At this time, Rin is no longer the "Lawgiver of Hope", but ......

【The Body of Hope】

He himself has taken the form of the concept of "Hope", fighting the Nemesis in this form.

His battle with Nemesis isn't over yet. Rin was more engaged and focused on the battle than in the accident world.

Because, what he is facing is not the lawyer, not the Honkai Beast, and not the half-body of the god with the power of "false god".

Rather, these three "Nemesis", who are one of the empowered mimics of the "Anel Ambasi of Tolerance", are true gods, powerful enemies equal to the rank of "Celestial Sage".

[The coming of 'despair' is inevitable, and we swear in our name that we will bring a deep 'despair' and bring advice to this world.] 】

[The destruction of the 'Dawn' is inevitable, and we swear in our name that we will destroy the only 'Dawn' and bring tribulation to this world.] 】

[The fall of the 'gospel' is inevitable, and we swear in our name that we will blaspheme the only 'truth' and bring reincarnation to this world.] 】

[In our name...... The goddess of vengeance swears that we will bring this life an opportunity to enter 'reincarnation'. 】

Seeing the three Nemesis coming at him again, he realized something. He had to end the fight quickly at this time, in the way he could use to take down the three Nemesis with a single blow.

He can't afford to expend too much stamina and the remaining "light" in his body against Nemesis, lest he fail to exert his full strength when dealing with Bishop Sif at that time.

"Al, I'm ready, this time I must ...... 'one blow' to kill them all."

"Well~ The concubine has actually wanted to hear the little prince say this for a long time!"

"Come on, then."

The giant ball of light of the three Nemesis struck him again. Rin just set up a stance, and the "Flying Blades of Light" attached from Hypernetus surrounded him, connecting them through the "Celestial Sequence".

This is a move called "Celestial Sequence: Supreme God Killing Spear", and it is also the strongest move that can drive Hypernetus after switching to "God Killing Mode - Balance".

Although it is a sword technique that has not been used in a long time, the "Supreme Blade". However, Rin also knew, but with the ordinary "Supreme Blade", he couldn't shoot down the gods that stood tall.

But the move of "Supreme God Killing Spear" can be done.

I saw that the majestic life force fused into several flying blades of Hypernetus, surrounding him, forming a circle of "magnetic coils".

He slowly swung out a sword, and from the tip of the blade, gathered all the pure "power of hope" he contained on his sword.

A sword, killing gods, a sword, killing gods.

This may be the truth of the sword skills mastered by Mr. Harvey, the Sword Emperor, as a "Titan Hunter". At this moment, from the blade of Hypernetus's sword, the original transmission was transmitted to Rin's body.

[This even high power, noble sword skills, pure blades! ] Strike down my enemies and raise the storm of rebellion! 】

['Celestial Sequence: Supreme God Killing Spear'! ] 】

The majestic power of life and hope passed through the giant ball of light of the Nemesis, fusing it into the torrent of light, making it even greater and more terrifying.

Soon, the three goddesses of revenge were surrounded by the unstoppable torrent of life.

It is a blow that rejects "divinity", a blow that erases divinity and restores the essence of things, and no matter how much it has "divinity", it will disappear in this sword.

So, with the bodies of the three Nemesis about to disappear, the words of divinity gradually became weaker:

[We will ...... Return to nothingness, abandon 'despair', and the world will move forward. 】

[We will ...... Return to the universe, abandon 'annihilation', and the world will move forward. 】

[We will ...... Return to the stars, abandon 'blasphemy', and the world will move forward. 】

The world will move forward. 】

The three goddesses of revenge finally dissipated in this pure power of hope. Their bodies, turned into starry remnants of divinity, drifted into the bleak depths of the earth, completely silent.

While Nemesis was still alive, the appearance of the underground was still a blue "underwater world", and the light became even more dazzling under this illumination.

Just as they were gone, the underground environment suddenly became dark again. This drastic change in the environment also made Rin subconsciously close his eyes, as if he was not adapting to the rapid changes in ambient lighting.

However, the glimmer of light left behind by Nemesis' death seemed to guide Rin's way forward, and began to follow him like a firefly, pointing him in the right direction.

[The world will move forward, O O Son of Man, Thou hast received the approval of 'We', and we are willing to become thy strength and accomplish thy final mission. 】

Firefly-like crystalline spots of light were sucked into Rin's body one after another. At this time, Rin also regained a lot of physical strength, and at the same time, the power of the "Nemesis" seemed to be floating in his mind.

It was a fragment of God's power that directly affected the "result" by "ignoring the process".,After being absorbed by Rin's "Holy Carving",Rin seems to feel that a new ability seems to have been added to his Holy Carving technique.。。

Although he didn't have the idea of trying it out in a hurry, he knew that this power could be used just enough to deal with Bishop Sif and make her pay for her "foolishness" all along.

What he wanted to do, which was to take revenge on the gods, was the only thing that drove him forward.
