Part 2
“First let’s talk about the premise. Do you know the spirit status that constructed Aži Dakāha?”
“Do you need to ask that now? Isn’t it the eschatology that combined the tale of Zahhāk from Persian Poem[2] and modern history? At least, that Jibril told me as such.”
Mikado Tokuteru answered her question in slight amusement.
—— Zahhāk, was talking about the king that was destined to become Demon Lord Aži Dakāha in Persian Poem. He who was fancied by Evil God used treachery to obtain the crown, grew the pair of wicked dragons from its shoulders and used fear to control its citizens[3]. Although the hero of that era[4] defeated the Demon Lord, he could not kill it no matter what. At that time Angel (Jibril[5]) appeared and told him ‘The time to exterminate this Absolute Evil has not arrived’, and used the sealing method to seal it inside the gigantic peak.
Then, in order to bring the end to the world after the Demon Lord resurrected, it destroyed one third of the world. The one that would appear to resist this eschatology was none other than 「Hero destined to save the future」.
Tokuteru continued after understanding the above foundation.
“Considering the inheritance of 「Destroying one third of the world」, Demon Lord Aži Dakāha’s appearance had been misunderstood as 「Perma iceberg collapsing due to irregular Sun activity chronicle」 for a long time.”
“Umu. The perma icebergs in South Pole or something melting would cause water level to rise, in this situation, Earth’s land would shrink by one third… But the truth wasn’t so. Perma iceberg collapse was at best the by product of eschatology.”
Correct — Mikado Tokuteru had another reason to reject the theory of NBCR weapon. It was simple, because he believed that such a level of weapon could not destroy the environment of a planet.
The predicted that the eschatology recorded in 「Zoroastrianism」 was very similar to Indian mythology 「Kali Yuga」 in content[6]. This hinted that super-developed civilization would be vanquished in the kindness recession era.
“Hence we can conclude that the chronicle Aži Dakāha pointed towards — 「Super Weapon that can destroy environment of planet」 and 「Evil authority user that uses the Super Weapon」 theories… Right?”
Inheritance of 「Destroying one third of the world」 = Invention of 「Super Weapon that can destroy environment of planet」.
Inheritance of 「Obtaining the crown because of Evil God」 = Appearance of 「Evil authority user that uses the Super Weapon」.
The overlapping of these two points led to the appearance of 「Last Embryo」 Aži Dakāha.
“Umu. The former is 「Third Perpetual Machine」. The latter due to the origin of Aži Dakāha’s inheritance being Persia, hence the theory of 「A Middle East country that sponsored energy development」 would be strong.”
Completion of Perpetual Machine, signified countries that produced first tier energy from oil facing destruction.
This would be a fatal invention towards middle east countries. Hence it was deducted that for the sake of new privilege, they were most likely going to become sponsors for the mysterious inventor of the Perpetual Machine. Considering there to be the place of origin for inheritance, it was feared that a new Demon Lord that had similar spirit status as Aži Dakāha might be born from middle east countries.
“The 「Inventor of Perpetual Machine」 that was always treated as a question mark, only this was something even our intelligence network could not investigate. But we finally caught the tail after hearing Izayoi’s words. We heard that Izayoi once travelled the world with Canaria. Then following their route.”
“No. That’s unnecessary.”
Lapko III took out a small bottle from the tiny Gift Card with a Kada sound.
Inside it was a piece of dried blood.
“...Blood clot? What is this?”
“It’s the blood of Sakamaki Izayoi. Saurian Demon King requested me, asking me to confirm whether he is truly a human.”
“Saurian Demon King? Why?”
“Probably because he was worried that if he is a new half Celestial being, 「Great Sage Equalling Heaven」 would be abandoned. Since the Demon Lord of Confusion that is left alone is an example. But the result of the investigation showed that he is 100% pure human. Other than that his livelihood has also been investigated… Indra, please listen calmly to my following words.”
Fumu, Mikado Tokuteru nodded his head exaggeratedly. Not correcting his name was probably because they were old acquaintances. Those two were comrades that fought against Dystopia Demon Lord in West Floor. Both side trusted each other’s ability. Since she seriously said ‘Please be mentally prepared’, then it must be an important case.
Lapko III took a deep breath as if to suppress her excited emotion, and pointed at Izayoi’s blood clot.
“First point. His real name is not 「Sakamaki Izayoi」.”
“Hoh? Then what is it?”
“...「Saigō」. That is his true surname.”
「Saigō」— A surname he never heard of. He felt that it might be related to history of Japan, but it was probably unrelated.
That surname seemed to have some symbolic meaning —— Thinking to that part.
Mikado Tokuteru’s expression had a drastic change.
“ 「Saigō」(西郷)...「Saigō」(西業)? No, don’t tell me?”[7]
“Second point. His, Saigō’s parents are destined to die in the Parallel World Intersection point. Even if Canaria did not abduct him during his infant period, Izayoi boy also had the fate of definitely going missing at that point of time. “
Mikado Tokuteru was speechless. That meant 「Death of Izayoi’s parents」 and 「Izayoi gone missing」 were a 「Paradigm Shift」 in the history. Canaria felt guilty because she thought that it was caused by her action, but that was just an act that was included in the convergence point.
Izayoi’s parents who were supposedly normal people should not be included in the 「Paradigm Shift」.
“Don’t tell me… The inventor of 「Third Perpetual Machine」 is.”
“If we don’t go to that era then we cannot confirm, but that’s basically correct. It was judged from Izayoi and Croix’s words that it is the University professor. Izayoi’s parents were assassinated by an organization that targeted their research. Then at the same time they died, the development method of 「Third Perpetual Machine」 was distributed to an unknown number of people, hence becoming a 「Black Box」.”
—— It was actually like that. Although roughly understood the location of the inventor, as long as the convergence point 「Death of Izayoi’s parents」 did not change, the inventor would not be concentrated to a single person. But the change of convergence point meant the change of Akashic Record. Even three digit could not do it easily. Even if Almighty could create, it could not easily change creation. Because it would contradict with a part of 「Omnipotent Paradox」.
“Invention method distributed to an unknown number of people… That’s how it is huh. Demon Lord 「Aži Dakāha」 is not like king of a country kind of single person or organization, but public mass huh!”
“That’s right. We had deducted it to be an authority holder like Zahhāk, but that at best is just admonition. As long as there is Super Weapon and authority, adding some evil intention… Any human can be corrupted into Aži Dakāha.”
Any human’s soul contained the possibility of Aži Dakāha.
The 「Absolute Evil」 flag he carried, was exactly the trial of humanity itself.
“Then the third point. ‘Sakamaki Izayoi saving the world, exists direct and indirect branching’. Based on my deduction, one of them is the chronicle that crossed the Dystopian eschatology, which is the chronicle Kasukabe Yō exists. The chronicles afterwards are destined to be peaceful… But we did not ‘cross’ Dystopia, but defeated it with ‘vanquish’ method, hence the chronicle she exists became infinitely thin.”
“...That’s it, ah. Even that Kōmei received 「No Former」 brand because of this huh. But, that’s wrong, wait a moment! Which means… What is it about?”
Mikado Tokuteru was overloaded with information and frowned while organizing them.
Lapko III slightly lowered her head after seeing him in that state, and clarified briefly.
“The content of inheritance that Sakamaki Izayoi saving the future, should have come from here.
‘The country or organization that obtained the development method of 「Third Perpetual Machine」 would make the world face the danger of annihilation’,
paired with ‘the existence of hero that obtained the same power of 「Third Perpetual Machine」stops it’.
Then ‘If it is an indirect hero, he would save the world as an inventor’,
or ‘If is is a direct hero, he would save the world as an experimental body’.”
“Wha—Ex-Experimental body!? Of Perpetual Machine!?”
“Yes. Because since birth, his body had possessed 「Third Perpetual Machine」 — Using the information from surrounding environment, the final secret of humanity that creates energy from nothingness 「3S.nano machine unit」.”
Karan, she knocked the bottle that contained the blood clot.
Reaching this far, Mikado Tokuteru was truly speechless from the shock.
“Then... then… this, is this it? Giving power to Demon Lord Dystopia in the past, then becoming the root of Demon Lord Aži Dakāha, all in this blood clot…?”
“Yes. If Sakamaki Izayoi inherited as the inventor of Perpetual Machine, the Perpetual Machine would be completed in the year 2120s. In this situation, the possibility of his longevity exists, but I think that it would be his children that would save the world. But if he inherited as an experimental body and possess the Gift himself, it would only take several fraction of years to complete compared to the former. Because the finished product, had been lying dominant in his body long ago.”
Izayoi once made Coppélia into a Perpetual Machine with 「Adamantine」 in 「Underwood」, but the Gift inside him was the real reason why 「End Emptiness」 retreated. And because 「End Emptiness」 had seen through that, it acknowledged the clearance of Game and left.
“—— Kihahahaha!!! So this is how! This is how it is! As expected of Lapko-sensei, your deciphering is several million times deeper than my deduction.”
Suddenly, along with a cheerful laughter, a tuxedo silhouette appeared in the parlour.
The two of them put up their guard instantly, but that laughter trait and that shade, they were both very familiar. Tokuteru stood up and opened his arms, welcoming this comrade in the past.
“Croix (lolicon)! Long time no see you bastard, are you still doing well!?”
“Kihahahaha! That’s my line Indra (hitodzumacon)[8]! You already married a wife with such a nice butt, but your chastity is still zero! Playing with too much fire may burn you, you know!?”
“Oi oi don’t scare me, didn’t that make me shake in fear already, seriously! I am completely a human right now, so if my wife comes to hack me please help me out!”
That’s right! The two brute gods laughed out loud shoulder to shoulder. They had not much relationship in their God Pantheon, but they were comrades that fought together in that desperate battle against Demon Lord Dystopia.
They had the destiny to fight against 「Closed-off World」 (Dystopia) until their own faith extinguish. Although they did not have inheritance on par with each other, they had acknowledged each other’s spirit status.
Mainly womanizing and alcoholic, and non god-like behavior were their similarities.
“But I am so surprised. After defeating Dystopia, Dystopia’s final spirit status actually rampaged… Croix know something?”
“No, it was a long time afterwards that I know. Probably around the time when Izayoi beaten about 90% of my spirit status, while I was resurrecting. Waking up after a long time, only then I realized the Perpetual Machine was almost complete. Seeing that caused me to think ‘Ah ah, like that no matter if it’s 「Ideal World」 (Utopia) or 「Closed-off World」 (Dystopia) both can work’.”
The shady gentleman God showed a far-looking expression. Those two could not discern what he had seen in the near future.
But they knew the definition of 「Ideal World」 and 「Closed-off World」 were two sides of a coin.
Some philosopher gave a simple definition of 「Ideal World」.
『That is a country whereby all citizens receive equal earning, building families with no differences, holding a little faith in their hearts, peacefully spend everyday.』
With that as foundation, adding the 「Growth of Perpetual Machine that can mitigate energy problem and social competition 」 and 「The dwindling of Middle Age invention and liberalism」 to the condition of the chronicle, it could result in the appearance of the strongest God-killer 「Dystopia Demon Lord」. The appearance of God Pantheon that supported this Demon Lord was also one of the important reason, but the main reason was the usage of Perpetual Machine after all.
“The real 「Ideal World」 exists in the front which surpassed 「Closed-off World」. We collected the history that created 「Black Death」 (Pest) and smallpox pandemic, used them to boost the growth of invention mindset, and with that method vanquished the chronicle convergence point… But seeing it now, we have only done a bad thing.”
“...That’s true. There may be other methods.”
Tokuteru, Croix and Lapko III all smiled bitterly, and maintained silence.
Because Demon Lord Dystopia was too strong. As a God-killer he was probably above Aži Dakāha. It was a last resort, there was no leeway or time to choose the method.
But this kind of matter, was unrelated to the sacrifices of the spreading disease. Their grudge would probably never disappear from the world.
“...Kihaha. Mah, 「Last Embryo」 had been exterminated. There are plenty time afterwards. Taking this chance, why don’t we think about other possible methods and chronicles.”
“That’s true. We must also consider the opinion from 「Black Percher」.”
“Ah ah. Regarding this matter, that little girl is the witness of era. She must be bearing the possibility of being the pillar of that era. We must get her back from those guys no matter what.”
The trio nodded together.
In the past, they imposed their immaturity on humans.
Human being annihilated by human was only inevitable, but if they lost their lives due to divine interference, that was definitely wrong. Now was still a situation where decision could not easily be made, hence they could not move, but once everything reached a conclusion they would definitely carry out rescue, they swore as such.
What they could do now, was only watching over the whole story.
The days to the god/demon playground they hoped for in Little Garden should not be far away.
Even if he interfered, he would be told ‘You really do only unnecessary things this useless god!’, and nothing else.
...Mah, however.
(Wanting to save Pest is too late. These guys are still so naive.)
Zaza —— Some static noise leaked out.
Some poet (Noise) that was eavesdropping, mocked the oath of the gods and demons, then left that place. Because he was there the general situation had a major change, was matters many years later.
