Bister nodded, and the seventh black sword appeared behind him. It turned into a long arm and took out two puddings from Chen Shi’s refrigerator. He handed one to Mayuri who was watching the show, and placed the other in front of himself and ate it as if nothing had happened.

Seeing this, Chen Shi raised his eyebrows and looked at Bister strangely. Bister tilted her head, then as if she suddenly realized something, she took another pudding and placed it in front of Chen Shi.

"Eat it, just treat it as your own home, don't be polite."

Is this my house? Is this my pudding?

Chen Shi’s brows twitched wildly.

"Is there anything else you can do?"

"Nothing."

Bister ate the pudding in a few bites, and looked expectantly at Chen Shi's pudding, who hadn't moved a mouth. The latter twitched his mouth and pushed the pudding over.

"Then why are you still here? Go find Shiori."

"Didn't you say she was busy taking the trial? I'll wait here until she's done with it."

"..."

Staring at each other, Chen Shi actually saw a hint of sly complacency in the other's dull eyes.

——This girl must be pretending to be stupid to get back at me because Stellius tricked her to death in the video.

Chen Shi thought so.

"Mayuri, ask your boss to think of a way to take care of her."

"Because you suddenly started the plan, Stellius-san, the boss is working overnight on the National Sword Realm, and I can't contact it now."

"Ah this..."

Mayuri ran away after finishing the pudding, leaving Bister at Chen Shi's house, forcing Chen Shi's original plan of lying down and watching the show leisurely to change into taking care of his stupid sister.

……

Time came to the next day. Although last night's social death video and a series of secondary creation crazes made Shiori feel reluctant to get up when she woke up in the morning, the ethereal voice of a young girl prevented her from planning to stay in bed because of shame.

"Shiori, if you don't act now, the world will be destroyed."

"Who?"

Shizhi poked his head out from under the quilt and found a girl with blonde hair and red eyes standing at the head of his bed.

"Manyuri?"

Shizhi was a little surprised, but when she saw the nameless sword Xuwu at the other party's waist, she subconsciously became alert.

"Which Mayuri are you?"

"If I say that I have made the world nothing..."

"Ah, if you can joke in that tone, you must be Mayuri from our world!"

Shiori jumped out from under the covers and hugged Mayuri's body. She still remembered how the girl sacrificed herself and disappeared with the "Thunder Temple".

"Welcome back, Mayuri."

"Well, I'm back, Shiori."

For a moment, a smile appeared on Mayuri's somewhat indifferent face, but it soon became serious.

"There is no time to reminisce, Shiori. Westcott has obtained the «Almighty Power». The world is on the countdown to destruction. We must gather the strength of all swordsmen immediately."

179: Solomon begins

Regardless of the notification from Mayuri, Shiori immediately started his own action, and the video arrived as expected as usual.

[The video begins.]

In the deserted South District Base, the Lord of Truth was playing with the "Almighty Power" in his hand. Beside him, Stellius, with his usual smile on his face, was stroking his fingers and looking at the book, as if he was looking at some rare treasure.

Well, if I really have to say it, this book is indeed a treasure that stands above everything else.

"Is this the real Book of Omniscience and Omnipotence? I can indeed feel the powerful power from it."

"No, this book is not yet finished. Theoretically, I should also get a final holy sword to match this book."

The Holy Lord of Truth shook his head, revealing a slightly regretful expression.

"Unfortunately, due to the obstruction of the Holy Blade, the ritual seemed to have only had time to complete the book, and the sword did not appear."

"Oh? So your plan failed?"

Stellius narrowed his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.

"I will not fail. I can just replenish what I lost. In my eyes, the swordsmen are vulnerable ants. Now they can no longer resist me who has the "omnipotent power". I will capture Mio again and squeeze out her last value to complete the final holy sword for me."

"Haha, Sbarasi, if you need anything, please let me lend you a hand."

The Lord of Truth sneered at Stellius' flattery, stood up and walked outside.

"No need, you just need to watch me do my great deeds as a god. I think the swordsmen have rested enough, so I can use them to test my new power."

"If it's just this book, isn't it a finished product?"

Inside the DEM building, watching the information released in the video, Westcott was a little stunned. If he had known earlier, he should not have killed Stellius so early. Where would he get the ultimate holy sword now?

Fortunately, he is not completely without chance. The self in the video should be making the final holy sword, and he just needs to do as he is told when the time comes.

Then Westcott remembered that Meijiu had mentioned a prophecy in the video.

——When someone who wants to ignite the Holy Sword of Fire appears, the Holy Sword that connects the stars, gathers power, and leads the story to the end will be born.

He touched his chin and thought of Gokawa Shiori who had already obtained the Holy Sword of Fire in this world.

"Sure enough, my path to becoming a god is not cut off, hehe."

[On the other side, in the North District base, everyone gathered in the library except Alan who was seriously injured and unconscious in the room.

"Ah! This weight is reassuring after all!"

Nanashi waved the greatsword in his hand and sighed, while Miku beside him rubbed her face against the sound gun sword Tin Yin with an intoxicated look on her face.

"Welcome back! Sound~gun~sword~tin~sound~"

Seeing this, the swordsmen all smiled.

After everyone had been showing off for a while, Nanashi touched his chin and spoke first.

"Sophia, what were you trying to do when you flew up to replace Mio?"

"I am a replica of the person who connects the worlds that the Lord of Truth prepared for the ritual. Although I have the corresponding functions, my quality is definitely not as good as Miss Mio's. If I am used as the core of the ritual, the strength of the "Almighty Power" created will decrease, and everyone will have a chance to defeat the Lord of Truth."

"I don't think it's right to sacrifice Miss Sophia!"

Tohka said as she stood up.

"Shiori has also proved that we can save Miss Mio and stop the ritual of the Lord of Truth without sacrificing anyone! So Miss Sofia, please don't do this next time!"

“Blade Edge…”

Sophia looked at Tohka and nodded with some emotion, while Nanashi shouted belatedly.

"In that case, Sophia, you are not actually a pure human being!"

"This topic has passed."

Miku looked at Nanashi speechlessly.

"Okay, let's discuss how to deal with the Lord of Truth. That person is already very strong, and now that he has obtained the "Almighty Power", don't we have no chance of winning?"

"No, there is still a chance."

The door was pushed open and Allen walked in with a pale face. Her eyes looked full of determination and quiet anger.

"I can just assassinate the opponent before he transforms. If it's my smoke sword, I can easily get close to the opponent and carry out the assassination."

"But……"

Tohka looked at Alan, who had a very bad expression on his face, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Kurumi, who patted her shoulder.

"It seems that even without my persuasion, you have already thought it through and are planning to fight alongside Tohka and the others."

"…I am no longer qualified, but I will help you in my own way. This is my atonement."

After saying this, Alan was about to turn around and leave, but Nanashi called him back.

"You are not helping us if you rush around and give yourself away. At least you should attend the combat meeting."

Kuang San also covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Haha, if you want to assassinate someone, my Shiguo Sword Realm is also a pretty good choice, isn't it?"

Then, the golden eyes under Kuang San's bangs lit up slightly, and her eldest lady-like smile became quite terrifying.

"That sinner actually dared to deceive me and even teamed up with Megiddo. My anger will not subside unless he pays a price."

This sudden change in aura caused Yoshino, who was standing nearby, to tremble in fear.

"..."

Allen glanced silently at everyone present. Even Shiori, who was tricked the most by her, smiled and nodded in response. She sighed and sat down in a corner.

"Sorry……"

When passing by Shiori, a faint apology reached Shiori's ears.

Seeing that everyone was present, Sophia turned the topic to the main topic.

"Although the book of the Lord of Truth is incomplete, it is still very powerful. In order to fight him, we must gather the power of the 11 holy swords and gain equal strength."

At this point, Meijiu suddenly had an idea and remembered the prophecy that had been passed down in her family since ancient times.

"When someone who wants to ignite the Holy Sword of Fire appears, the Holy Sword that connects the stars, gathers power, and leads the story to its end will be born!"

"Yes, we have to find a way to summon the final holy sword. To do this, we must retrieve the King Sword and the Sword Slash..."

Sophia nodded, and just as she was about to assign tasks, she suddenly felt a pain in her chest.

She cast her gaze into the distance, where she could sense a man swaying and looking back at him.

"Sofia?"

"It's the Lord of Truth, he's out!"
