The force exerted by the two confronting forces oppresses space itself and even distorts it.
Eshidrujuye raised the corner of his mouth in a disdainful sneer, raising his hand. Then, the brightly colored veil through which Hajime had entered this space vanished, blocking his escape route.
Then, God himself spoke and declared war.
"Come on, the game begins. First, let's dance!"
He waved one hand downward, even the movement of his fingertips was graceful.
Then, the stars of light laden with destruction transformed into a meteor shower. The barrage of stars, enough to fill the air, even seemed majestic.
"You can play until you die by yourself."
Hajime gave an order, his voice icy cold. A thousand cross-area cannons simultaneously turned their muzzles forward. A flash of lightning flashed, followed by a cascading explosion.
The electromagnetically accelerated bullets turned into a thousand flashes of light, streaking across the sky.
Furthermore, all bullets are "Space Explosion Bombs".
Platinum meteor showers and crimson bullets filled the entire space.
The two collided in the middle of their respective camps, causing explosions or even self-destructing with a force that could only be described as earth-shattering.
A powerful shock wave spread with a loud noise, and the light produced by the explosion was like the birth of a small star.
However, even such a brutal attack was merely a greeting before the war for both sides.
The triple ring of light continuously shot out meteor showers. The cross-field cannon also continued to spit out bullets frantically.
"That's right. If you can't even handle this, it'd be a real letdown."
Eshidrujuye's tone sounded a little excited, and he snapped his fingers again.
Then, a new threat emerged from the triple ring of light.
A humanoid silhouette, composed of light, emerged from within, seemingly seeping through. The silhouette appeared to have wings, and it held two large swords, making it clear what it was.
"Your abilities are comparable to those of a true apostle. Don't be defeated so easily."
The barrage of light stars continued, and at the same time, a terrifying number of Apostles of Light were dispatched. Naturally, their number must have been infinite. As they released Apostles of Light, new ones continued to emerge from the afterglow.
"Who do you think I am? Physical warfare is the skill of a refiner."
Hajime raised his right hand, which was wearing the "Treasure House" ring, and a strong flash of crimson magic power quickly swelled up.
The Apostles of Light rushed into the flash of light, intending to attack Hajime. Of course, that was impossible.
──Jiyiyiyiyiyi!!
An inharmonious sound like metallic friction echoed around.
At the same time, the Apostle of Light was blasted out of the flash.
"Hmm... Is it the Golem Army?"
As Eshidrujuye had said, after the expanding flash of light converged in the air, a large group of golems appeared.
However, the golem looked so strange that even Eshidrujuye was puzzled.
They exuded a transcendent aura, clearly imbued with multiple Age of God magics. All golems were heavily armed, and clearly acting autonomously.
A versatile type, the Griffin, possessing the body of a lion and the head and wings of an eagle. Not only are they capable of high-level mid-range and close-quarters combat, they also possess exceptional flight capabilities. Six hundred of them exist.
Long-range, high-powered turret-type Behemoth. 200 in total.
A model with specially enhanced flight capabilities and speed—the Yatagarasu. Two hundred in total.
These are living golems, a fusion of magic and weaponry. A thousand of them, the Demon Lord Slayers, insensible to pain and incapable of fatigue. Their name is—
——He started a one-man army, the Death Army.
Eshidrujuye and Shi gave the order at the same time.
"Apostle of Light, expel this hideous monster immediately!"
"Shinigami, kill all those lousy puppets."
Then, the Apostle of Light rushed forward, dragging light, and the Metal Griffin and Yatagarasu flew quickly to meet the attack.
The Apostle flew so fast that it left an afterimage, but the Griffin was still able to keep up, attacking it head-on while part of its back structure slid back.
Then, a total of 6,000 pencil missiles were fired from it.
The massive bombardment, enough to suppress the entire space, temporarily stopped the onslaught of the Apostles of Light.
Taking advantage of this gap, the Yatagarasu, which can freely manipulate gravity and use combustion powder to spray high-speed air, approached rapidly.
As soon as they reached the most suitable position to snipe the Apostle of Light, the Yatagarasu opened their beaks, extended their gun barrels from them, and fired their electromagnetic cannons.
After launching, the Yatagarasu does not remain in its original position, but continues to rise, activating its built-in "treasure house" from a position higher than the enemy, and raining down cluster bombs.
Some of the Apostles of Light escaped the bombing range, but were attacked by the Griffin troops who were waiting there.
Their beaks and claws activated their "space-severing" function, simultaneously firing their shotguns. With the resounding, heart-shaking sound of heavy gunfire, each shotgun shell, each carrying multiple magical shockwaves, struck the Apostle of Light.
The difference between ordinary Apostles and Apostles of Light seems to lie in the strength of the body itself and the presence or absence of a "core".
Even without using the armor-piercing bullets with enhanced penetration to hit the apostle's core, the magic shockwave seemed to be effective against the flesh made of light, causing damage and shattering some parts.
Although it lacks the advantage of the "core", the triple ring of light will continue to give birth to new apostles of light, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of them were born.
At this time, a massive ground-to-air attack was launched from the ground.
Behemoth-type golems are enormous, roughly twice the size of Earth tanks. The four electromagnetic-accelerated machine guns on their backs roar upward. Two six-barrel missiles are mounted on each flank, and their chins fire 120-centimeter electromagnetic-accelerated projectiles. Their incandescent horns can also fire solar beam lasers.
All of these attacks were directed at the location where the target appeared, completely shattering the Apostle of Light and the Star of Light the moment they appeared from behind the triple ring of light.
Of course, the surging wave of attack also affected Ehidrujuye, who was at the center of the backlight. However—
"It seems that he has some ability to please me."
He was completely unconcerned. All the attacks stopped at a certain distance from Ehidrujuye, as if blocked by an invisible wall.
Eshidrujuye looked at the Apostles of Light who were being eliminated one after another and whose forms disappeared, as well as the army of Death who immediately self-destructed as soon as they determined they were defeated, intending to perish together with the enemy.
"How much Age of Gods magic did this take? No matter how you think about it, it's impossible for humans to do this. The special derivative skill 'True Craftsmanship' that breaks through the limit... I haven't seen this kind of skill in a long time. I didn't expect that it could be developed to this extent by combining Age of Gods magic. Not only that, it must have also incorporated a lot of knowledge from another world. How fascinating—"
"You're such a chatterbox. Are you so eager to talk?"
Eshidrujuye's investigation was interrupted by the shooting of Donal and Hulak.
Meteor showers and cross-field cannons rained down fire. A fierce battle ensued between the Apostles of Light and the army of the God of Death. Within this chaotic space, crimson flashes flashed rapidly.
Two gunshots rang out, and there were only two flashes of light. However, twelve rounds of armor-piercing bullets were fired.
Six ultra-precise shots lined up in a straight line, unbelievably, actually crossed such a fierce and chaotic battlefield, passed through the battlefield where the combat forces of both sides were chaotically intertwined, passed through the gaps between explosions and shocks, and ridiculously pointed directly at Eshidrujuye's chest and forehead.
Continuously launch physical attacks at the same location without any error.
Such a unique skill combined with a highly powerful warhead, the destructive power it unleashed seemed to be something that even God's barrier could not withstand.
After a shattering sound of "Bang!", the magic bullet struck the god directly.
"You managed to break through my barrier! And you shot your loved one in the vitals without hesitation. Such a mentality is truly... interesting, so interesting! What an anomaly!"
As expected, Ehidrujuye was unharmed.
Before he knew it, many black swirling spheres appeared around him.
It was gravity magic—"Calamity." It was much smaller than Yue's, barely larger than a child's fist. Yet, its power was several times greater, and its speed was incredibly fast. Unleashed only after the barrier was destroyed, it was capable of forcing electromagnetically accelerated bullets completely off their trajectory at incredibly close range.
This fact made Hajime's expression even more solemn. On the contrary, Ehidrujuye's expression twisted with pleasure. At this moment, the offense and defense reversed.
"—'Fourth Formation: Skyshaking'."
Space vibration magic attacked from all directions, and all the impact force was directed towards the center with extreme destructive power, about to shatter Hajime's entire body.
"I won't fall for the same trick twice!"
The magic eye stone has the function of detecting spatial anomalies in advance, and it came in handy at this time.
In addition, since this was a spell that only affected a limited area, Hajime was able to lead the twenty cross-field cannons out of the effective range of the spell a moment earlier.
"—[Calamity]."
A supergravity field immediately unfolded above Shi's head, but Shi was not knocked down.
A necklace with seven rings appeared from Hajime's collar, and one of the rings glowed for a moment.
──A protective ring (amulet) used as a defensive artifact.
This artifact can negate or reduce the effectiveness of any magic belonging to the Seven Ages of Gods.
Currently, the "Gravity Amulet" is neutralizing the surrounding gravity anomalies.
Eshidrujuye immediately saw the mystery.
"—'Shock the Sky', 'Soul-Striking', 'Destruction'... 'See Through'."
He immediately unleashed a series of Age of Gods magic.
Wide-area spatial explosions, shock waves that directly damage souls, remote destruction of artifacts, and one of the essences of sublimation magic - "Intelligence Perception".
In response to these spells, the amulets of 『Space』, 『Soul』, 『Generation』, and 『Sublimation』 equipped by Hajime glowed simultaneously, immediately neutralizing or reducing their effects and resisting them.
"Oh... beautiful. Well then, let's change the method a bit."
Suddenly, a chill ran down Hajime's spine.
Before my eyes—not only that, but platinum-colored vortices appeared above, below, left, right, front, and back. Each vortex emitted a large number of stars of light, attacking from all directions.
"That's all you can do!?"
A group of four cross-field cannons deployed a rectangular barrier in all positions except the front.
These new fighters, without the need for wires to connect them, could form barriers and barriers of any shape. While a large, glowing shield-shaped space blocked the formation of the barrier, Hajime summoned a new weapon from thin air.
It looks like the electromagnetic accelerator cannon "Majerai", but its size is completely different. It is at least three times larger than the original one and is extremely huge.
——Super-large electromagnetic acceleration machine gun Mejerai - Natural Disaster Edition.
Essentially, it's a cluster of six Mejri machine guns. Therefore, its power is simply increased sixfold, and the number of bullets it fires is also sixfold. It can fire 72,000 rounds per minute, making it a monster among monsters.
"Whoosh!" A strange sound like the air breaking was heard.
In an instant, a large number of bullet casings fell like a torrential rain, and a large number of bullets formed a turbid stream.
The platinum vortex directly in front of Hajime, along with the meteor shower, was blasted away, and the Apostle of Light on the beam was also shattered. The turbid stream formed by the bullets rushed towards Eshidrujue.
"That's astonishing. If that's the case, I should unleash my power to a higher level."
Platinum vortexes appeared on both sides of Ehidrujuye, but the purpose of these two vortexes seemed not to release attacks, but to devour attacks.
The deep red turbid stream seemed to be broken in two and forked to the left and right, each being sucked into the platinum vortex and gradually swallowed up, without touching Eshidrujuye at all.
If it were just Absolute Disaster, it would definitely not be able to withstand such power and would be shattered. However, although the nature of this platinum vortex is the same as Absolute Disaster, its power is several times greater.
"...This won't hurt you, right?"
Hajime summoned several more Cross Field Cannons from the ranks, sending them attacking the platinum vortex surrounding him from behind. The "Space Burst Bomb" seemed to be effective against the vortex, causing it to instantly dissipate and vanish.
The cross-area cannons changed their formation, forming a roughly spherical shape with Hajime as the center, and countered the numerous light stars coming from all directions.
"But it's definitely not invincible. Since it can destroy, then we just need to increase the destructive power."
Having said that, Hajime put the machine gun he had used to counter numbers into the 'treasure chest' and took out the 88cm electromagnetic acceleration sniper cannon 'Shuragen A-A (achtacht)'.
If such a weapon were used on Earth, it could even penetrate the bottom of a warship. Such a powerful force was approaching Ehidrujuye in a straight line.
Whether it was bullet speed, bullet weight, or power, every aspect far exceeded the specifications of personal weaponry. Even the attraction of the platinum vortex could not completely offset such an extraordinary attack power.
But──
"By the way, Anomaly. How did you manage to defeat Albheit? His divinity wasn't so low as to allow him to be defeated by a dying you."
Eshidrujuye suddenly brought up the topic as if it were a casual conversation.
Facing the strongest firepower, he remained calm. In fact, the attack did not hit him.
Five layers of barriers stretched out before Eshidrujue. These weren't invisible, invisible barriers, but visible barriers radiating a platinum-gold glow.
The shell fired by Hajime shattered four of the layers, but failed to break the fifth, leaving only a crack before losing its power.
Even so, Hajime's fighting spirit remained undiminished.
"Hmph, can such a vulgar person be considered a god? It's ridiculous. He begged for mercy in a cowardly way and died easily."
He still maintained an attitude of looking down on his opponent and continued to take the next step.
