I'll kill you after I finish this game!

He has already achieved omniscience atop the throne of God; the only remaining meaning is to experience the unknown of death.

Reiji's existence allows him to always see the unknown. Reiji can create unknown worlds for him to explore and play in his territory.

But this was ultimately just a rudimentary provision for a self-imprisoned prisoner. After experiencing it, Mercury Serpent declined Reiji's offer.

The other party had given too much. Although Lei Zhe had no intention of showing pity, Mercury Serpent also had its own pride.

Mary broke his rules and gave him the same level of emotion as Rezé, so he fell irrevocably in love with her.

The Mercury Serpent was overjoyed that someone like her could be born under its own laws, so much so that it didn't care about bowing and scraping to Mary.

"You must understand, in this world of infinite recurrence, there is nothing unknown to me. This vast and boundless world is a prison to me. Mary's existence is not just a monotonous display of light to me; it's only natural to want to get closer, as it's human nature."

When you live in a world where you know everything, you can no longer empathize with anyone.

The vast and boundless world beneath the divine throne holds no unknowns for the Mercury Serpent.

Mary broke his rules and brought him a soul-stirring experience.

Therefore, I admire this flower, love this flower, and want to kneel before this flower.

Mercury Serpent's calm yet poignant words left Fujii Ren and countless viewers speechless.

Not only Fujii Ren, but all the viewers were surprised that the current ruler of the constellation, Mercury Serpent, would fall in love with such an unusual girl as Mary.

However, after the other party revealed their true thoughts, I understood why they valued Mary so much.

To the countless worlds, the Lord of Mercury Serpent is merely an all-knowing, third-person gamer from outside the realm.

He knew the entire plot, was aware of all the changes, and for him, there was nothing unknown.

As gamers, Mercury Serpent was also forced to play a 'game' that offered nothing new or exciting.

Razer is considered a player-controlled character, just like Mercury Serpent, so he doesn't count.

But one day, a bug appeared in the unchanging plot of the 'game', and a character who broke free from the 'plot (eternal return)' gained life and consciousness, no longer a static mechanical cog in the circle.

She can communicate with you, she can empathize with you... all of this left the Mercury Serpent bewildered but also intensely attracted.

Similarly, if your favorite anime or game characters could break free from the trends of game or anime storylines and communicate with you across a computer screen, the excitement and shock would be indescribable.

The mercury serpent, imbued with this emotion, took the initiative to approach Mary, and...

Buzz————

Fujii Ren's perspective shifted again, this time seeing 'himself' face to face with the ethereal and innocent-looking Mary, and uncontrollably speaking affectionately to the twilight girl before him:

"I am intoxicated by you, flower."

"Ah, so please allow me to kneel before you, Flower."

Ah, this guy confessed his feelings to Mary.

Although Fujii Ren couldn't show any expression at that moment, she desperately wanted to call the police!

Judging from Mary's appearance at this age, you could tell from her eyes that her mental development was only slightly better than that of an infant.

Confessing your feelings to an immature woman is absolutely perverted, right? It's definitely perverted!

"Haha, I made a fool of myself. Laugh at me, I really looked like an idiot back then."

Mercury Serpent was thick-skinned when it came to Fujii Ren's fluctuations in consciousness; he was already used to being called a pervert by others.

That's fine, he doesn't regret it, because this is the truest truth of Mercury Serpent, so he shouldn't feel ashamed or anything, but should proudly stand tall.

"[I didn't want my beloved to live in this ever-changing world. Exhausted yet excited, I made up my mind the very first day I saw her: one day, I will liberate her, for she is the vessel I acknowledge as the goddess who surrounds the new world.]"

"I want to see the goddess's world born, even if it means sacrificing my insignificant life for her. I have arranged everything for the goddess, everything from this moment until now."

"[So, do you understand now, Zarathustra? The Black Round Table, and you, are all tributes and jewels I offered to her. One hundred and thirty years later, in the Third Reich, I found the ultimate power, and everything prepared with my friends—the entire drawing was completed!]"

Fujii Ren was pale and furious. She was truly enraged when the mastermind behind the scenes personally admitted to what he had done.

While the other party's infatuation with Mary is a virtue, their actions are truly despicable.

Besides her anger, the reason why Fujii Ren's face turned pale was because the other person's words shook her very existence.

According to the other party's words, she... Fujii Ren, this existence was created for Mary, and for the other party's plan?

And it wasn't just her; even Skadi and Reinhardt were important actors in the other side's plan.

Everything...everything...

"You are the embodiment of my holy relic's will; your duty is to communicate with Mary's soul on my behalf."

Mercury Serpent ignored Fujii Ren's emotions and inner thoughts, and with a light laugh, gave an answer that was unacceptable to him and shocked the audience.

Fujii Ren, is this being a relic of the current Lord of the Seat, Mercury Serpent?!

Holy crap!? They're from such a powerful background!?

When Mercury Serpent revealed that Fujii Ren was presenting the jewelry to Mary, she initially thought he was just an 'actor' arranged by the other party.

I never expected that actress Ren Fujii would have such an explosive relationship with Mercury Serpent.

【Freya, the Goddess of Beauty】: Oh my, this explains why the other person's voice appeared in Fujii Ren's consciousness. This little girl with a soul that possesses fleeting beauty is actually a creation of the gods.

[Blue Ribbon Goddess]: I never expected that Fujii Ren would have this kind of relationship with the Lord of the Throne. It turns out he is the son of God.

[Bishop of Destiny]: This kind of operation... doesn't seem too hard to accept; it's an existence created to achieve a purpose.

[Master of the Hall of Rebirth]: The embodiment of the will of the Sacred Relics, is it... one of the Sacred Relics needed to cultivate the secret technique of Eternal Destruction?

[Scattered Soldier]: God's creation... But the goddess residing on the guillotine is the Seeker of the Way, right? The Seeker of the Way cannot sit on the throne, so does the Lord of the Throne want her to sit on the throne? Is there a plan to reverse the other party into the Overlord?

[Guest of the Hall of Rebirth]: I'm afraid that's very difficult. You must know that the desire to achieve the laws is almost to the point of madness. It's possible to reverse a person's obsession, let alone a god's...

【Wanyou Tianluo】: That's right. The powerful beings in the video who have become gods or achieved 'creation' are all terrifying beings who have carried out their desires and transformed them into laws. How terrifying do you think the quality of desires that can form laws is?

[Old Demon King]: Think about Nanami, Soujiro, Shiori and the others. Who can reverse their desires?

It's impossible. For example, Mibu Sojiro wanted to become the best swordsman in the world. It wasn't just his desire, but also his ultimate belief in life.

Without this desire, it would be tantamount to turning Mibu Sojiro, the sword god, into a walking corpse.

It's possible to reverse the desires of ordinary people, but what about these obsessive, even manic and abnormal, powerful individuals in the video?

Some people have already become gods who transcend the universe through their own desires. It can be said that their unique desires are an important support for their divinity.

If it were gone, it would be fatal to God.

Moreover, Mary had already become a goddess; how could she safely reverse God's desire?

This point is also mentioned in the video.

"I......"

Fujii Ren's face turned ashen; he couldn't comprehend it and stared in disbelief.

She was this guy's relic? She couldn't accept the truth he was telling her.

An incarnation of a holy relic? Are you kidding me? I'm not someone's puppet to achieve their goals...

"[Brace yourself, there is no greater honor than this.]"

Mercury Serpent chuckled merrily, his extreme narcissism making him think it was an honor. After all, he was the current Lord of the Seat, and no one else could have such an honor and be able to contact the goddess on his behalf.

"How can it be......"

Fujii Ren unconsciously murmured words of denial.

Don't joke around. She's a person, a person with her own will. All her actions are driven by her will, not...

"【Imbuing a vessel with a will, a vessel imbued with mad thoughts—is this a sacred relic? What makes it different?】"

"A human being is a trinity of body, spirit, and soul; in comparison, sacred relics are a trinity of the body and spirit plundering the souls of others."

"[In other words, it's a being similar to a human, a demonic vessel, which can be considered a new type of life form I created, a terminal possessing intelligence.]"

This detailed and direct explanation made Fujii Ren clench his fists tightly.

After all, this denies her existence, suggesting that she was merely an intelligent being created by the other party to achieve their goals.

Can a secondary entity that is dependent on a primary entity truly be said to have its own will?

Do you understand? This is the meaning behind your existence, Fujii Ren.

It is only natural to possess the will to seize the souls of others and plunge hundreds or thousands of souls into inner chaos.

Relics are like this, and so is Fujii Ren.

"Besides communicating with Mary, you also have the responsibility to execute the monstrous minions of the Black Round Table. Reinhardt, his domineering army, has halted the circular movement of souls. The world, endlessly devouring the dead, composed of an expanding sea of ​​war demons, is my Seat of Friends. I believe you wouldn't acknowledge it given your understanding."

Sizzle————

As the other party cited Reinhardt as an example, a blurry image suddenly appeared in Fujii Ren's mind, showing countless golden demons.

And she... seems to be among them, in another capacity.

"【I call it the Golden Asura Path, the world of heroic spirits who are endlessly resurrected after death, a place where they fight forever. It is a hell that continuously prevents the eternal flow of water from returning to normal, pushing it to its absolute limit.】"

"【You've also been a visitor to his Demon City, haven't you? What were your impressions?】"

Mercury Serpent chuckled as it asked Fujii Ren what he thought.

Fujii Ren lowered his head, his face cold, and said in a chilling and hateful tone:

"Disgusting!"

"[Ha, those who know Reinhardt's creative essence and truly understand him call him a devilish man, and he certainly lives up to that title.]"

Mercury Serpent, hearing Fujii Ren's voice filled with hatred and rejection, showed little emotional reaction, and said with a playful and amused tone:

"Valhalla, the golden demon city, built from the spirits of the dead, is a place where every brick and tile is imbued with human souls."

Suddenly, the perspective shifted once again in front of countless viewers and in front of Fujii Ren.

This time, however, the setting has shifted to the magnificent golden castle that once captivated countless viewers.

“————!!”

The scene before them was the former Demon City, only now stripped of its glamorous facade. What lay before Fujii Ren and countless viewers was a scene that would send chills down everyone's spine.

Countless souls howled, wailed, groaned, roared, and laughed, obsessively forming... or rather, piling up into an enormous [city].

In countless arenas, countless war ghosts, their bodies mangled and broken, fought with excited fervor.

His skull-like, empty eyes were filled with supreme golden light; he knew only how to kill and dance with the bodies of the dead.
