The world is now on the countdown to chaos. 】

"Is this the first thing you do after getting the power?"

Shiori looked at the scene in the video in disbelief. At this moment, she and a group of elves were staying in Ratatoskr's command room, heading towards the DEM building in the distance.

After learning from Mayuri in the morning that Westcott had also obtained the "Almighty Power", she summoned all the spirits and swordsmen she could, including Shiori herself, Tohka, Origami, Mana, Nanashi, Miku, the Yamai sisters, Nia, Mayuri, and the two spirits without holy swords, Kotori and Yoshino.

After discussion, everyone decided to strike first and sneak up to the DEM building to launch a surprise attack, capture Westcott in one fell swoop, and destroy "The Power of Almighty". That book is too dangerous and cannot be allowed to exist in this world.

"Tsk! No matter which world he is in, Westcott is always an annoying guy."

Erya glanced at the guy in the video unhappily. As for her grudge against DEM, she, who had been locked up for five years, naturally hated Westcott very much. Therefore, she was a staunch supporter of this raid.

"But something is wrong, Darling."

Miku frowned.

"If 'Almighty Power' is really as powerful as in the show, we may not be its opponent. We must gather all 11 holy swords. However, Kurumi's whereabouts are unknown, and she even blocked Nia-chan's search in some way. Allen is on Westcott's side, so the situation is quite unfavorable."

"I believe in Kurumi."

Shizhi held the flaming sword Rehuo tightly in his hand, and a hint of clarity flashed in his eyes.

"Although she is not a good person in the traditional sense, she is not someone who cannot distinguish right from wrong. Westcott's existence is too dangerous now. Kurumi will definitely come to help us even if it is for her own plan. As for Alan..."

"Don't worry about that person, she will help us."

Mayuri, who had been silent until then, spoke up and attracted everyone's attention.

"Do you have any evidence?"

Kotori raised her eyebrows and bit the lollipop in her mouth into pieces. Although she knew that Mayuri in this world was a good person, the words of the Unnamed Sword Xuwu still made her subconsciously alert.

"Alan is in someone's hands now, and he assured me that the other party will definitely agree to assist us."

"Who?"

"You want to know?"

"Ah."

"..."

Mayuri stared at Kotori in silence as she asked the question, which made the other elves a little nervous. They thought that some shocking news was going to be revealed next. As a result, Mayuri just stared at them for 5 minutes before Shiori realized something and opened his mouth to test the water.

"You're not going to tell?"

"Ah."

The elves were speechless.

[Origami stood on the rooftop, quietly looking at the huge book in the sky.

"Is it finally starting?"

"Now that it has begun, come back and fight with me soon, Origami."

A lively girl's voice sounded behind her. Origami remembered the voice, so she didn't look back.

"Is it the Swordsman of Light?"

"It's me!"

Mana came to Origami's side and looked at the book with her.

"I won't go back."

"You want to sacrifice yourself to activate the hidden ability of the Dark Sword Yue'an to seal the Lord of Truth, right?"

Origami was stunned, and for the first time she looked at Mana, her eyes asking, "Do you know what?"

"I am the first-generation holder of the Holy Sword of Darkness. If I don't even understand the ability of my own weapon, I'm too inferior."

"If that's the case, then you have even less reason to stop me. This is the quickest way to save the world."

Origami returned to normal after a brief moment of surprise.

"If it were the old me, I would have agreed with your approach, but things are different now. I don't want anyone to sacrifice themselves, and my sister won't want that either."

"No, you don't understand..."

"If you don't sacrifice yourself, then onee-sama will, right?"

"!?"

This time, Origami was really shocked. She stared at Mana, because at this moment, she suddenly figured out something. Since Mana claimed to have possessed the dark sword Yue An, then had she also seen the future?

Combined with the fact that she revealed the biggest secret she had ever kept, a terrifying thought occurred to Origami.

"You... knew a thousand years ago that Shiori would sacrifice himself to save the world?"

"Ah."

Mana had no intention of hiding anything and simply nodded in confirmation of Origami's words.

"I knew about this future a long time ago, and I wanted to help my sister in the beginning."

"Swordsman of Light!"

Origami showed a ferocious expression, as if she was going to fight with Mana right here in the next second.

But Shin continued talking as if he was unaware.

"My brother sacrificed a lot to protect the fantasy world. I wanted to share his pressure, so I took the initiative to become one of the first generation of swordsmen. No one had a good ending. Countless friends died tragically. Mayuri saw too much ugliness in humans during the killing and lost her trust in humans. I also gave up my body and sealed myself in Avalon.

In my era, the swordsman's mission was higher than his own life. Everyone was ready to sacrifice themselves to save the world, and was proud of living this way. We would never regret our end. "

Mana looked at her own hands. There were no calluses on her fair hands that a swordsman would have. This was normal because she was no longer human.

"I originally thought that my elder sister was the same. She wouldn't mind her own sacrifice to protect the world. But I found out that I was wrong. People are changing, and the world is changing with them. The correct views in the past are no longer correct. People now try to live in the present, and sacrifice is no longer necessary."

Mana looked at Origami, and the latter felt a sense of familiarity because of her identical appearance to Shiori.

"Onee-sama will change the future. She has promised everyone to protect the world together. I believe in her, and I also believe in you, whom she believes in. We will wait for you and wait for you to move towards the future together."

Mana finally left here, leaving Origami alone in thought, and a golden bird flew past her and a feather landed on her shoulder. 】

The leader of the Arotaki faction: Well said! No need for sacrifices! This Mana is just what I want. I must invite her to join our Arotaki faction!

Research Maniac: Indeed, Miss Mana is a person worthy of admiration.

The symbol of beauty and wisdom: Haha, what an interesting person, I really want to ask her to read my novels and comics by Yaedou and talk about her thoughts. She has also been self-sealed for a long time, so why is it that the brain of a certain otaku girl is getting dumber and dumber, and she always gets stuck in a dead end?

Wuxiang Yidao: As people change, the world also changes with them... Wait, Son of God, don't think I can't see that you are being sarcastic to me.

182: Assassination failed

[The world fell into unrest. At this moment, there were no pedestrians on the streets. Everyone was uneasy about the "miracle" suddenly displayed by the Lord of Truth.

In this situation, Yakushi, who had just finished a day's training with Nakadashi and Natural Disaster, sat blankly on the climbing frame in a children's park, staring listlessly at the huge book in the sky, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Confused. What on earth are you thinking about?"

Natural Disaster hooked his legs on the railing above and hung himself upside down, squeezing his head into Yejushi's field of vision.

"I……"

The doubts about the natural disaster caused Yakuya's memory to flash back. The way Shiori repeatedly created miracles and the words of Nanashi echoed in his mind.

——If you really feel confused, go and try to fight with Shiori. That kid has a power that we don’t have, and he should be able to help you.

Just as Yakuya opened his mouth to say something, the calls of Nanashi and Miku were rang out. Subconsciously, Yakuya grabbed Tianzai's scarf and pulled her down, and the two of them hid in the blind spot under the amusement equipment.

"Question. Why are you hiding?"

Tianzai didn't seem to care much. He touched his sore butt and looked at Yejushi in silence.

"Anyway, they're going to ask me to rejoin the team or something like that. I haven't made up my mind yet."

"Strange. What? So you don't want to go back and fight alongside them?"

Tianzai looked at Yejushi strangely, wondering why the latter said things that were not in line with his heart, and then turned into black particles and slipped away.

"..."

Yajuya was silent. The natural disaster with a similar appearance to her was like a mirror, allowing her to clearly feel that she was lying to herself.

She wanted to fight alongside everyone, but the more she fought, the more she felt her own weakness.

My father's teachings rang in my ears again.

——Yakushiya, you must be the strongest!

After sitting there for an unknown amount of time, a hint of determination flashed across her eyes. Now, the person who could break her confusion should be Shizhi. 】

Red Kite Immortal: A warrior who can't find a reason to become stronger? That feeling is indeed quite confusing.

Bookshelf Guardian: I am becoming more and more concerned about the relationship between Scourge and Yakushi. Judging from Sterius's personality and abilities, Scourge is definitely inextricably linked to the Yamai clan.

Wang Yang: Could it be that Calamity is actually the Wind Swordsman of a certain generation?

Death God Elementary School Student: No, if you are a formal Wind Swordsman, you should not learn any unconventional side schools.

White Tyrant: I hope Sister Shiori can help Sister Yakuya get out of her confusion.

[In the South Base, Mayuri, with blonde hair and red eyes, came before the Holy Lord of Truth and looked expressionlessly at the man who was stroking the book in his hand.

"Now that you have gained power, why not work hard to destroy the world?"

Listening to Mayuri's emotionless question, the Lord of Truth grinned.

"If it's just destruction, it would be too boring. I want to see more people wailing, hear more pleasant cries, and let everyone go to destruction in despair and pain. Don't you think this is more interesting?"

"do not think so."

Mayuri took out the "Eternal Phoenix", and her expressionless little face was filled with genuine murderous intent.

"As expected, although we want to reach the same end, you and I are not on the same path. Westcott, I will fulfill my words and kill you."

"Heh, a mere small system nurtured by a holy sword, do you think you can defy the gods?"

The Lord of Truth stood up, but found something strange. He took a step back and avoided the trident and sword that appeared out of nowhere.

"Stupid guy, do you think you can assassinate me without me transforming?"

He released a black and red energy shock from his hands, repelling the two attackers, and then the Lord of Truth opened the "Almighty Power" in his hand.
