625 – The Final Brilliance
『Are you okay…? Aro, treant?』

I call out to the two. If the [Big Bang] seeped in, they wouldn’t have been able to do anything.

“I-I’m okay! But, dragon-god-sama…”

『No, I’m fine too. As long as I’m not dead, I can regenerate fast. My MP is getting a little bit tight though, so I can’t make a complete recovery.』

I set to work restoring my body as I speak. For now, I’ll restore my eyesight and mobility. I’ll postpone the rest to let my automatic MP recovery catch up.

The second [Big Bang] was unexpected, but the origin matter has to be at its limit now. But as I am now, a single [Dark Ray] could finish me off. I’ve practically won already, but I can’t relax yet.

I’d like to be able to fly so I can dodge [Dark Rays] in three dimensions, but I haven’t got enough MP to restore my wings. Should I slowly recover while running around with [Roll], then finish it when it’s safe?

I raise my body with that in mind, and… Right above me is the origin matter. It’s descending, and has reached the tips of the trees.

It becomes clad with black light. [Black Hole] again.

There’s probably only one reason it would choose [Black Hole] over [Dark Ray] when it’s this close to me. Rather than relying on [Dark Ray] which I could potentially avoid, it’s going for a certain kill with a third [Big Bang].

『N-no way… It’s still usable!?』

I desperately crouch down and stab my claws into the roots of a tree. My tail lifts, followed by my lower body.

As I am now, I can’t put up a proper fight against [Black Hole]. Even ignoring a third [Big Bang], I could easily be sucked in. For now, I should restore my wings so I can put up some resistance in the air.

But, even if I’m able to resist in the air a bit, once it uses [Big Bang] I’m dead for certain.

W-what should I do!? I thought I was the one cornering it, and never thought it could be capable of three [Big Bangs] in a row.

I check the origin matter’s status. As I thought, it has just about enough for one last [Big Bang]. And, right now, its HP is over 70%.

Defeating it before it can use [Big Bang] doesn’t seem very realistic. It’s certain that it’ll erase me with [Big Bang] first.

The dark tree I’m clinging to shatters. As I’m sucked up, I spread my wings to do what I can to resist the [Black Hole].

Really…what can I do? Are any of my skills useful? The more I think about it, the more I realise I have no countermeasure, and the inside of my head goes pure white.

I-I’m not giving up! I’ll keep fighting to the last! It’s not just me. If I die, Aro and treant will die too.


It’s not only them, the [Spirit Servants] will be set loose in our world, too.

The moment I’m dead, God’s Voice should lose all reason to take the people of that world hostage. But, they’ll still do it. Just for retaliation, they’ll set the [Spirit Servants] loose to devastate that world. That’s who God’s Voice is. I understand that painfully well.

『…Master-dono, how long do you think that [Black Hole] will last?』

Treant asks.

『It should stop soon! If not, it wouldn’t have enough MP for a final [Big Bang].』

I don’t understand why he asked, but I reply the best I can.

『I see. That’s good.』

He appears in tree spirit form at the tip of my nose. I press him against me with my wing to prevent him from falling up into the [Black Hole].

『T-treant! What are you doing!? If you come out now, you’ll just die to the [Big Bang]! Go back inside!』

I shout. He looks back at me.

『Master-dono… Aro-dono… I have been happy. If…if somehow I don’t make it, I leave the rest to you.』

It’s his usual mask-like face, but somehow he looks a little sad.

“T-treant-san…?”

『H-hey, treant! What are you doing!?』

『Please rest assured! I still have a little [Immortal Revival] left! I can take that blast! As I am now, I’m tougher than you, master-dono! But…if I don’t make it, please tell atlach-dono that I did well!』

Treant declares, spreading his small wings. Pulled by the [Black Hole], he flies towards the origin matter.

『Treant! Hey, treant!』

I desperately call out, but he doesn’t look back.

The [Black Hole] quickly cuts off. If it had kept it up a little longer, it would have sucked him in. But, if it did that, it wouldn’t have had enough MP to use [Big Bang].

Treant completely undoes his [Tree Spiritisation]. Complete with the brilliant blue of [Immortal Revival], the branches and roots of a [World Treant] materialise in the air. A gigantic tree has appeared between me and the origin matter.

Complicated patterns run down the origin matter’s surface, and it begins to shine with iridescent light. It looks as though the origin matter’s iridescence and the treant’s blue light collide in the air.

All I can do is stare at the scene in shock.

The origin matter’s final [Big Bang] activates.
