“Why do you want power so badly? Why do you want the world, Titan?”
“Why? Of course, it’s because it’s more fun!”
“Wha?!”
Demiurge was stunned by what Titan had said.
This fellow just thought it would be fun to take care of the world.
I’m just dumbfounded to think that she would do such a foolish thing as damaging the world tree, an act that could destroy the world in a heartbeat if she made a mistake.
“The longer I lived, the more bored I became with the world. I enjoyed the act of creating demons and slaughtering humans to a certain extent, but… even so, after a while, I got bored.”
“……!”
The fact that she’s talking about killing people as if it were a hobby made me furious.
The reason why Demiurge and the others were holding the people of the world in their hands was to save the world.
It was for this reason that I could understand their actions to a certain extent, even if I couldn’t agree with them.
But this fellow is different.
With just a few words, it was proven that this fellow was not thinking about the world.
She would take a life just for her own needs. She is the worst kind of lowlife.
“So, when I thought of something interesting to do, I came up with the idea of taking the place of my sister and ruling the world. Just thinking about what kind of future awaits us at the end of it all sounds like fun!”
“You… damage the world tree and even take in the seeds for such an incomprehensible reason…? You are in disarray, Titan!”
Titan’s mouth twisted into a sneer, while Demiurge seemed to be on the verge of jumping out of her skin in exasperation.
The two are already in a tense situation.
The two are already on the verge of war. But the Demiurge of now has no power to fight.
If we jump in here unwisely, we’ll be playing for a fool by Titans.
“Kuku… doesn’t care about that, does it? Now, whether you want me to lead you straight to the seed, or whether you want me to ask your body, take your pick, sister.”
“……”
Demiurge distorts her expression as if she were biting down on a bitter bug.
She probably understands that she has no chance of winning if she fights Titan here.
Moreover, her opponent has regained its full strength.
There was no way she could match them.
“No response? Then…”
Then, without waiting for a reply from Demiurge, Titan bent her knees and lowered her back.
At this movement, I quickly remembered the route around me, and figured out the route to the main gate of the town.
It’s not a good idea to fight with Titan here.
I needed to get out of the city somehow.
My thoughts were frozen in an instant. The only thing left to do was to do it!
“It’s always quicker to ask your body, isn’t it?”
The moment Titan jumped out of the way, I took Demiurge in my arms and took off from the scene in a single leap.
“H-Husband?!”
“We can’t stay here, we have to get out!”
Titan’s fist was thrust into the spot where he had been standing until now.
“Haha! You can react to my movements, human! That’s scary! Let’s see how far you can run!”
Damn, I knew her reaction speed was far different from Phoenix’s.
She immediately changed her motion from that stance and started chasing me.
But I didn’t challenge the demon Demiurge in a vain or drunken attempt.
I’m not going to let her catch up to me so easily!
“Demiurge, we need to get out of the city!”
“Umu. Leave it to me, Master.”
“Ou!”
I sprinted out of the city.
The insane laughter coming from behind me almost pulled me out of my thoughts, but I just kept my eyes on the road ahead.
Finally, the main gate of the town came into view.
The people around us looked at us strangely as we suddenly ran out into the main street.
But I couldn’t let that stop me.
I shook off the restraint of the soldiers standing at the main gate and walked out of the town.
Of course, Titans were chasing me from behind.
There were no people on the streets.
I put more strength into my legs and moved away from the town as fast as I could.
“Haha! You’ve taken the trouble to go outside the town to show me that you want me to catch up with you! I’ll chase you in my true form this time!”
And suddenly, Mana’s presence thickens.
As I looked back behind me with only my head, the pursuing Titan’s body emitted light and gradually increased in volume.
