Episode 259
Kwaaaaaaang―――!!!
[Ran…!! It can’t go on like this!! We were going to beco one anyway! Why are you hesitating now?]
In response to Lu’s onslaught of attacks, Wu shouted as if overco by evil.
[How stupid…! Do you really think that guy is simply Lu, who borrowed Namgung’s body! If it were that simple, it would have been resolved right away!]
[…Then? Are you saying that’s not Lu?]
Wu asked back as if he didn’t understand his answer.
[There is sothing… there is definitely sothing. There is no way that guy Namgung would have left everything to Lu without any certainty.]
[Only because of that anxiety? I’m going crazy. Was this guy nad Sang Sang acting a lie because he was afraid of humans? If you’re going to do that, just let eat it!!]
[How stupid…! I told you that what he wants is for us to beco one!]
“You guys are still the sa.”
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr…!!
At that mont, Namgung’s chain targeted the two phases.
“I hope that we beco one, but in the end we fail to beco one.”
[…Shut up!!]
“I still can’t forget the day I was deceived by you and fell from paradise.”
[This is all because of you…!! You should never have existed in the first place! A mortal who inherits everything of Aspect? Does that make sense!]
[After creating you, why did the Sangha split itself in half and give birth to us?]
[Does it make sense that we, the Sangha, are worse than you…!!]
Ran and Woo are evil. He shouted as if he had been supported.
Ironically, their appearance now rather seed like that of the weak opposing the absolute.
The situation where the positions of gods and humans were reversed brought quite a shock to the other phases.
[I don’t know what cards Namgung has to beco one, and if I fight like this, I won’t be able to overco Lu’s power… I can’t even do this.] [I can’t believe I
can fight this far against soone I thought was absolute… myself. There is a reason why it was easy.]
[Is this how it will end…?]
[Well, we’ll have to wait and see.]
The Aspects looked at them with nervous eyes.
[…Isn’t it funny?]
Durga, the watcher of the sun and moon, spoke to Yor with a sowhat disapproving expression.
[What do you an?]
[We were the ones who held the carnival. And even if we are imperfect gods born from Lu, we have continued this festival by passing down our mories.]
[But? Are you sad that the carnival is going to disappear? Now, do you want to pretend to be the owner?]
Durga shook her head.
[no. It’s not a regret. At least… Our Eight Statues are the ones who have had the longest influence on Carnival. So… at least if it’s over, shouldn’t we be done with ours?]
[Arthur. Do you think you can win in a fight against Ran and Wu? This is not a situation for us to intervene.]
[…Are you satisfied?]
Yor tilted his head at his question.
[What?]
[I’m just waiting to see who wins with my arms crossed like this.]
[What do you want to say?]
Crash –
Durga took a step forward.
[If the first thing Lu created was , why did he give the title of observer? Does this really an that we should just watch and do nothing?]
Yor looked at him.
[I think not. The sun and moon are the most important beings in human life even if they do nothing. I think that giving such a title ans that I should beco the most important being.] [
I think you think too highly of yourself… So what can you do now?]
[Nothing. That’s why I’m just angry.]
Durga clenched her teeth as she watched Lu fighting with the phase. I wanted to go in there right away, but I knew there was nothing I could do there.
[What I can do…]
He muttered with a low sigh.
[If there is that, I should do it.]
* * *
“Ran and woo-woo. “I think the ti has co to end this long journey.”
[…shut up! How have we endured this long!! You can’t disappear like this!]
“Then? Have you decided to beco one? good. That’s exactly what I wish for. Why not give it a try?”
[Ugh…!!]
[It’s useless to worry about it. He is the only mortal created by an intact Aspect. If soone like that even had the power of the Aspect… we can’t handle him right now.]
Wu shouted at Ran while dodging the chains.
[Becoming one is the only way! It’s useless to worry about it. This might be our last chance!]
Ran bit her lip at his words.
[Damn it…]
But he also knew that what Wu said was not wrong.
However, so unknown anxiety prevented him from becoming one easily.
[Give your hand.]
Ran said.
[Promise. I will erase this world no matter who becos the owner of the sanity.]
[That sounds obvious.]
Wu took his hand without a mont of hesitation.
[It’s ti to bring everything back to square one.]
Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssbssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssm–sssm
As Ran and Wu held hands, smoke began to billow out around them.
[Ohh? Is this finally happening?]
[I guess it’s a choice they have no choice but to make. But it looks funny. Their original goal was to beco one, but now they are forcing it.]
[Just as the five senses exist in humans, the phase that created humans must be much more developed.]
Naless and Lathea talk while looking at Ran and Wu. did.
[But no matter how developed your senses are, you don’t seem to notice his existence.]
[Almighty, but not omniscient. That is the greatness of the status and the biggest blind spot.]
[I would be surprised if I found out who the owner of the chain is.]
Naless smiled bitterly at Lathea’s words.
[Is there any ti to be surprised? It might disappear before you know it.]
[Well, it would be nice if it could end that easily, but… Woo is impulsive, but he is by no ans stupid. He too may have been hiding sothing else. This is not an opponent that can be easily defeated.]
[But what can they do in this situation? If Lan’s power joins like this… To be honest, it’s the end.]
Unlike the optimistic unknown, Leoric still seed to be keeping the current situation in check.
[Lu(淚)…!!!!]
It was then.
As the smoke disappeared, a huge whirlpool appeared in front of them, accompanied by a strong gust of wind.
Two voices overlapped and black eyes glowed within the whirlpool.
A thick arm was seen inside the whirlpool, and the earth trembled every ti it took a step towards Lu.
[Indeed… this is an incredibly intimidating feeling. Is that what the full phase looks like?]
Kwa-ga-ga-ga-ga-ga–!!!
A huge hand erged from the whirlpool and struck Lu. But at that mont, a chain blocked his path.
Kaan-!!
With a sharp roar, the phase’s arm flew out and his body stumbled.
“To , it looks like an extrely unsafe being.”
Lu looked at Sang Sang and spoke in a low voice.
[Greatness is God’s domain! But how can you stay in that position without thinking about a mortal subject!!]
The back of his hand that touched the chain burned as if it were on fire, and the Sangha roared as if it were a snarl.
[You should never have existed in the first place.]
“Is that really what you want?”
[okay!! I will start this world again. We will create a world of gods, not a world of mortals!!]
“Rin will be sad when he hears that.”
[…What?]
Sigh…!!
At that mont, a chain was wrapped around the phase’s arm.
Kwaduk…!!
“Maybe you don’t rember. In fact, it was created together with before the complete phase was split into two.”
[Rin…?]
Lu pointed to the chain wrapped around the phase.
“He is the last recourse left by Sang Sang. “I knew that one day you would run amok, so I was sleeping inside as a chain that bound you.”
[chain…? Don’t be funny!! This chain is just an extension that connects us!!]
“At the end of that extension is Lin, and that Lin is created by the complete phase.”
[…Why?]
Sang Sang tried as hard as he could to break the chain, but the more he tried, the more the chain tightened around him.
“To bring closure to humanity.”
[…Ouch!!]
The chain wrapped around the wrist climbed up the phase’s arm like a snake and burrowed into the whirlpool.
Sigh—!!!!
As the chain wrapped around the Aspect’s neck, he twisted his body as if in pain, and the vortex surrounding his whole body disappeared helplessly.
[It doesn’t make sense… I, the Sang Sang, am the only one caught in chains…]
Sang Sang shouted in a trembling voice as if he was embarrassed.
“You deny my existence and say that the two of you beca one to beco one, but… you actually know nothing.”
Lu spoke to the statue lying on the floor.
“Saint Phase did not want to let the world he created disappear.”
[Do not be ridiculous…!! We too are beings born from a status. They are beings that originate from the desire to purify the world!!]
Lu shook his head at the cry of the phase.
“no. Rather, it’s the opposite. He was rather envious of the lives of his creatures. And he knew that that desire was consuming him, and he sensed that one day he would be divided.”
[we…? Envying a lowly mortal?!]
“Don’t try to deny it. “You too brought down from paradise to earth.”
[That’s…!!]
“It’s because I knew the greatness that only humans have and that God does not have.”
Sang Sang’s eyes trembled.
“Autonomous will.”
At that mont, the chain ford a shape.
It was Namgung.
“It is not sothing that is born for a reason and exists to do sothing, but sothing that is done solely out of one’s own will.”
Their status is clearly great, but their actions are bound by rules.
But humans are different.
“We live by our will. “Sotis it leads to a disappointing ending, but it allows humans to grow.”
But the status is different.
Just carry out the mission given to you.
Do nothing more or less than that.
“Ironically, the perfect status that created envied the lack of autonomy in mortality, and that desire created you.”
[Ooh… Don’t be funny! Is Sang-sang envious of humans?]
Namgung appeared from within the chains and pulled the chain surrounding Sang-sang. Sang Sang’s face sank to the floor and beca eye level with Namgung.
“okay.”
Namgung looked into his pitch-black eyes and spoke without hesitation.
“That is human greatness.”
