I'll kill you after I finish this game!

"【You've only reached the Creation Rank; you haven't even reached the final stage of Flow. If you want to fight me, Flow is merely the qualification.】"

Seeing that Matilda had some restless thoughts, Reiji covered Tohka, who had already eaten and fallen asleep, with a blanket in the hut and continued to convey his words through telepathy.

"This world can no longer serve as a training ground for you. Would you be interested in traveling to other worlds?"

Upon hearing this, not only was Matilda's interest piqued, but all the Crimson World beings present, led by Alastor's clone, were greatly shaken.

What do you mean? Other worlds!? Could it be that besides the Crimson World and the mortal world, there are other worlds?

This news was truly astonishing. The Crimson World Apostles, who had just been feeling heavy-hearted because of the birth of a powerful new god in the mortal world, suddenly became incredibly excited and curious.

The injured Merishim clutched his chest, his eyes burning as he watched Matilda become excited in the sky. He could sense that Matilda had other thoughts on her mind.

What kind of world is it?

Matilda asked in a voice full of excitement and interest.

Reiji didn't reply this time, but the sky above the battlefield where Matilda was suddenly distorted, and the dimensional barrier of this plane began to break rapidly.

The sky shattered once more, revealing a dazzling spectacle unlike the magnificent starry sky that had just appeared.

Matilda, along with all the Fire Mist and even the Apostles, saw the layers upon layers of world reflections in the endless void, flashing like a revolving lantern.

In the shattered void before them, a vast expanse of different colors was reflected, containing countless creatures never before seen.

Figures like demons from mythology danced in the gloomy sky; colossal creatures of immeasurable size roamed the sea; and true dragons and all sorts of monsters soared in the azure sky...

There are too many to count. Even if you don't understand, you know that the different scenes and creatures reflected in different worlds are all beings from different worlds.

"call out--!"

A streak of light flew out from the shattered void and arrived in front of Matilda under the watchful eyes of the apostles and the fire mist. Then, the otherworldly scene in the sky began to disappear, and the shattered dimensional crystal wall began to be repaired by an unknown force.

Matilda stared at the glowing crystal in front of her with a flicker in her eyes; she could sense a unique and special power within it.

As she grew curious, Lei Zhe's voice came again.

"【This is both a key and a coordinate, capable of opening the dimensional gate and allowing you to freely travel to and from unknown otherworldly realms. The final coordinates are the place we agreed upon; once you reach that realm, we will naturally meet again.】"

Upon hearing this, even those apostles who were afraid of Matilda's power and were loyal to desire couldn't help but have their eyes burn with a burning desire.

To be able to travel to so many new places!

The key representing endless treasure was right in front of Matilda. If it weren't for Matilda's godlike power, all the apostles would have wanted to rush forward and forcibly seize it.

Under the watchful eyes of the fire fog, demons, and apostles with burning gazes, Matilda reached out and grabbed the dimensional crystal with amusement.

Everything that happens today is destined to be written into the annals of the Apostles and the Flame Haze: the birth of Matilda, the goddess of new life; the divine oracle guiding the gods; and most importantly, the final event: the confirmation of the endless otherworld.

Although the war has ended, a new era has also begun, and the Goddess of War, Matilda, is destined to be watched by countless apostles.

With Matilda present in the world, the apostles dared not act recklessly, which pleased the Flame Haze.

However, the boundless benefits that Matilda represented ignited an intense passion within the apostles.

Besides the legendary and mysterious Rhine, Matilda holds the key to other worlds.

If Matilda weren't a goddess of the human world, not the Crimson World, the apostles would probably have long ago sworn allegiance to her and wanted to follow her.

Yes, one of the Rainbow Wings has already done this after the war, but it's only limited to this Matilda who looks somewhat pleasing to the eye.

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

After the war ends, there will be cleanup work to be done. The remnants of the Funeral Bell also need to be pursued and eliminated.

This task was left entirely to the Flame Haze and the demons. Matilda didn't need to exert herself to defeat the apostles; she could now launch attacks to any corner of the world with the flick of her finger.

After the war ended, Zoffy, sitting on a broken tree trunk, sighed.

At this moment, her nun's robes were tattered, and her white headdress was covered in dust and had some burn marks.

Not long ago, in the instant that Funeral Bell collapsed, she transformed into lightning and annihilated Rock Kaiulikimmi in one fell swoop.

The events that occurred during this war were simply too horrifying: Matilda's ascension to godhood, the divine realm that guided the gods, and the Rhine that confirmed the existence of another world.

The extraordinary events, when combined, created a truly unforgettable and astonishing spectacle.

At that moment, she was gazing towards the center of the battlefield and sighed deeply.

From the blue four-pointed star embroidered on her forehead, came the clear voice of Takemikazuchi.

"Why sigh, Saberi-kun? Your human world has produced a pillar capable of bearing its own weight. With that being present, even the reckless apostles of the Crimson World dare not run amok in the human world without restraint."

With the help of his calm and composed voice, Zoffy's heart calmed down a little. It was because of his presence that this general who commanded an army among the Flame Haze could say such discouraging words.

"There is indeed no need to sigh. We have won this war, and the final result is indeed good for the world, but... I have a feeling that things will never be peaceful again."

Think about everything that happened in this battle, and the series of events surrounding Matilda's ascension to godhood.

Today's events will never be forgotten, and there's also the otherworld confirmed by Rhine. Zoffy felt a pang of sadness seeing those apostles with their eyes shining on the battlefield.

She had a premonition that the apostles' spying on Matilda would never end.

Because apart from Rhine, who is never seen, the only being who has clearly stated that can go to those otherworldly realms is Matilda, who received the key from Rhine.

"There are actually more and more things to worry about."

Zoffy placed his hand on his chest, hesitated for a moment, then smiled and made the sign of the cross on his chest.

“You have done very well, Zoffy Sabresh.”

"This is all thanks to you, Takemikazuchi no Kami."

"So how should we get along with that [God of War] in the future? I remember that the relationship between the Flame Haze and the Demon was not exactly good; they just had a common enemy."

After exchanging compliments, Takemikazuchi proposed how to get along with Matilda, who had become a god.

“Matilda and I have a good relationship. She is different from other demons. She is definitely a great warrior. Even though she has become a god, she will not forget that she was once a human.”

At least in the future, people's right to speak in the world will be qualitatively improved because of Matilda.

This is a very good thing. If we can avoid fighting to the death, no one will crave war or anything like that...

"I remember Matilda was called the God of War by the guiding god, right?"

Zoffy repeated his question with a stiff and strange expression.

“The enemy’s strength had expanded on the battlefield before. I understand this very well during the war. Even if the three pillar gods attacked together, they probably wouldn’t be a match for them.”

The God of Takemikazuchi knew what Zoffy was worried about, so he spoke frankly about his thoughts: the newly born god in the human world was a being even more skilled in battle than the God of Heavenly Punishment.

If the God of Heavenly Punishment has the power of judgment and sentencing, then the God of War must also possess powerful authority over battles and wars; this is an undeniable fact.

The God of Takemikazuchi was also worried that this war god might start a war with the Crimson World in the future, since the conflict between the Crimson World Apostles and humans could not be resolved overnight.

P.S.: Please vote and recommend! I'm planning to throw Matilda into No Game No Life. I'll just give her the Skywing Seed directly. The next stage will feature Yako, Shiori, the Xingyue siblings, Mibu Soujiro, and others from the Divine Curse Kamui series. Hato and Rindou won't appear because of the Mara problem. That world is a parallel alternate world created by the Raiji mutant.

Chapter Forty-Six: The Witch's Hammer - Anna

"Excellent, excellent! My dear friend, the actor you've mentored is truly a superb choice."

Standing in the chaotic void of the outer universe, in a void inaccessible to both the Crimson World and the Human World, a gentle and intellectual-looking Eastern man with long dark blue hair and a long face is clapping his hands in praise.

A deep blue eye gleamed with a mocking smile, and he stood there, draped in a tattered black robe that trembled like a shadow.

Even Mercury Serpent has to give a shout-out to Matilda; as an actress, she is truly the best choice.

Beside Mercury, Razer, draped in a tattered white ancient-style robe, stroked his chin, watching Matilda in the other world still consolidating her strength, while also considering who she needed to find in the other worlds.

"Stop talking about me, how's it going on your end? How many suitable people have you found?"

Asking this question as if it were from a close friend, he planned Matilda's future advance, while Razer set his sights on the world bubble of No Game No Life.

Well, the Star Cup and the God of War Artesius are quite suitable for training Matilda.

After easily capturing it with a casual reach, he placed it on Matilda's inevitable path, as if arranging a well-made chess piece.

"Hehehe, my dear friend, there are quite a few interesting things in the main world, and I haven't been slacking off."

Mercury Serpent watched this scene with pleasure and excitement, as if playing chess. He and Rezhe were training suitable actors for an opera dedicated to the goddess.

Because it was my first time, I had absolutely no prior knowledge of it, and this feeling of curiosity and anticipation was the best.

"So how should Mary appear in the script? Let me make this clear, don't treat Mary like a hothouse flower. Such flowers may be beautiful, but they are also very fragile."

Rezhe glanced at the prime universe in the Eternal Return Multiverse; the era had progressed to certain points in his memory.

Then there's Mary in the Sunset Beach Singularity, who now spends her days either wandering around singing or eating snacks.

"......"

Mary's suggestion stumped Mercury Serpent, who looked troubled.

Just as Rezer had predicted, he really wanted to make a scabbard for Mary to protect her and help her grow up safely.

Lei Zhe glanced at the guy helplessly and said directly:

"Once we deal with Narakuka, it wouldn't be a problem to let Mary take the throne. But you've probably heard the saying 'too much of a good thing can be bad,' right? Too much protection can lead to consequences you don't want to see. You can give Mary any kind of love you want, but please don't spoil her."

This was said very directly and clearly. Rezer was also doing it for Mary's own good, and he also had a great deal of affection for Mary and a strong desire to protect her.

Excessive pampering is like the birth of Mara; everything should have its limits and its principles.

In the original story, Marie, the goddess of the fifth day of twilight, had already discovered Mara, but she did not expel or punish him. After all, her Tai Chi was the ultimate in inclusiveness, and there was no concept of expulsion or hostility.

Mary's compassionate heart perfectly matches her character, but even a bodhisattva probably couldn't reach the level of boundless love that Mary possessed.

"So, in what direction should Mary grow up?"

Mercury Serpent countered with this question, as he was somewhat undecided about Mary. If he were to dedicate an opera to the goddess, she would surely have to take center stage.

He actually wanted to give Mary a chance to shine in an opera, but according to Rezer, protecting Mary was fine, but it absolutely couldn't be excessive.

At least in terms of independence and self-reliance, Mary needs to have these foundations; the current goddess is just a child.

Although Mary feels happy like this, being a child who never grows up is like living as a princess forever in a woven script prison.

The young Mercury Serpent didn't have that kind of twisted possessiveness; he considered Mary's needs in every way.

"As long as you don't have to be a hothouse flower or a princess, you're welcome to witness what kind of ending Mary will have. Don't you yearn for that kind of unknown?"

Rei turned to look at the Mercury Serpent, a pleasant and expectant smile curving his lips. He had never known the fleeting nature of love, nor had he ever experienced the destructive power of love. Mary's potential was now extremely high.

These words seemed to enlighten Mercury, who was stuck in a vicious cycle. A deep, mysterious chuckle returned to his face as he said:

"Hmm, in the end, no one sees things as clearly as you, my dear friend. Concern leads to confusion, and that's exactly what's happening now. We're just behind-the-scenes viewers. A stage without anticipation is a failure. Even the director craves the unknown that he anticipates."
