Chapter 9: 9

Translated by AmaLynne

I hurriedly followed Demiurge as she walked deeper into the forest.

As I caught up to her, I said something I had been wondering for a long time.

“Hey, can I ask you something? How did we get out of there in the first place?”

I thought that the blow from my self-destruct spell had killed not only Demiurge, but also myself for using the spell.

But the reality is that both Demiurge and I are still alive and well.

I can’t grasp the situation at all.

What exactly happened after I used the self-destruct magic?

“It’s because I used my own mana to heal the dying me and husband at the same time.”

Oh, by the way, Demiurge was able to use all the magic in this world, wasn’t it?

It’s not surprising that they can use recovery magic.

…No, wait.

Then I wouldn’t have been able to beat Demiurge just because I used self-destruct magic, would I?

Eh? That means I died for nothing… No, no, no! Don’t think about it.

In the meantime, my blow had reached the Demiurge. That’s how it should be, right? Yes…

I’m just escaping from reality, isn’t I? This… dreary.

Huh? But how does Demiurge, could they have even healed me, who would have died almost instantly from the self-destruct magic?

I decided to ask Demiurge about that as well.

“But, you know, I used self-destruct magic back then. I thought I died almost instantly from that, didn’t I?”

“No, that’s right. By the time I regenerated husband’s body, he had already died.”

“I knew it. But then how do you…?”

“Umu. There’s no use recovering your body anymore, no matter how much I do. Because the inside… soul has been destroyed.”

That’s right.

No matter how much you try to restore a body that has lost its soul to its original state… the dead cannot be resurrected.

If it were possible to do that, it would already be…

“If you want to do something about it, you’ll need a miracle of resurrection.”

The resurrection of the dead.

The work of God.

There is certainly magic in this world that can restore even those who are in a dying state.

But there is no such thing as a way to bring a dead person back to life.

In fact,

“But even I can’t use that level of magic, because it’s an external technique that twists the logic of this world. Even I cannot defy the laws of this world at all costs.”

So you can ignore it to some extent and do a lot with it.

I knew this girl is out of her league. I wonder how I was able to fight properly.

However, even the Demiurge, which is such a powerful and incomparable existence, can’t use the resurrection of the dead magic, which means that there is no resurrection of the dead in this world.

“So, how did you save my life?”

I wondered if there was any other way to keep those whose lives had disappeared in this world other than by resurrecting the dead.

But the next moment, Demiurge gave me an astonishing answer to my question.

“Umu. Yes, there is. However, I am the only one in this world who can do so.”

“? What do you mean?”

“『 I gave my life to my husband 』. Now, my husband and I are two people sharing one life. In other words, my husband and I are now one in the literal sense of the word.”

“―――?!”

I couldn’t hide my surprise at Demiurge’s words.

I had no idea that she had even offered her own life to save mine.

What kind of magic tricks did I use to capture the world’s strongest girl back then, to make her go this far?

The fact that I don’t remember anything, even though it’s me, is quite frustrating.

“But the manipulation of my life used up most of my mana. I couldn’t even find the mana to make clothes, so I spent the rest of my life naked. Well, I’m starting to think that since I don’t have any enemies, it won’t matter if I don’t wear it at some point.”

“No, let’s just wear normal clothes.”

“Isn’t that too much trouble?”

“No, no, no.”

It seems that Demiurge and I have a gap in common sense.

Well, she is not a human being, so it is inevitable that she does not have the same sensibilities as humans.

Still, I have to admit that the fact that she had spent several years in the nude was a bit much.

“However, my mana has finally recovered over time. Thanks to this, I was able to recover enough to make clothes as I did before. In the sense that I was able to confirm this, I guess it was worth making the clothes.”

“No, don’t just confirm it, have the common sense to wear clothes, please.”

Indeed, Demiurge said earlier that he had recovered enough magic power to make clothes, but what did she mean by that?

In other words, the reason she hadn’t worn clothes for so long was not only because it was a hassle to get dressed, but also because she’s trying to avoid using unnecessary power to recover her mana.

But to say that it lasted so long that it became a hassle to put on clothes is a bit…

I wouldn’t be able to stay naked for several years. Even if I were a man.

“In addition, when I was hit by husband self-destruct magic, my core was damaged, and because of that, it seems that I will no longer be able to use my true power from now on. In other words, my husband has damaged me.”

“There are a few more ways to say “damaged”…”

“That’s the truth. In addition to the fact that I don’t have the strength that I had when I fought my husband, it’s taking me a long time to recover my mana. So, I can’t even use big magic right now… Well, even if I didn’t, most of my restored mana is being used for『 other things 』right now.”

“Hmm? Other things?”

“You’ll find out when we get to where we’re going.”

After saying that, Demiurge led me through the forest.

I followed Demiurge’s back, tilting my head at the meaning of her words.
