Chapter 579: 579

Everyone present readies themselves against God’s Voice, who suddenly appeared. It seems that even Umukahime hadn’t expected God’s Voice to come down personally. Glaring at the figure through narrowed eyes and clenched teeth, the impatience is clearly written on her face.

“Please don’t be so on guard. I won’t be hurt or even annoyed no matter what any of you do, and in the first place, do you seriously believe you could possibly stand a chance against me merely by putting yourselves on guard?”

God’s Voice gently raises a distorted and blurred arm.

“Oh yes, that’s right… I wonder if the conversation would proceed more smoothly if I eliminated two or three of you? I know you’re all simplistic fools, but surely you won’t choose to be pointlessly massacred?”

I don’t think it’s a bluff. There’s no way God’s Voice could be weaker than me. Leaving out whether or not they’d actually do it, it wouldn’t even be strange for all of us here to be wiped off the map along with the entire island. Looking around at Aro and the others, I indicate to them to take a step back.

『…Please stop. If you want to talk, then I’ll listen. I’ve been manipulated through and through by you after all. You can forgive a little disrespect.』

“Ah, I’m glad you’re so easy to control. You always back down quickly when the lives of others are at stake.”

『Are you the real thing…? Or a fake or incarnation of some kind?』

【The only ones who can do something like this】“are myself and Laplace.”

A message directly resounds in my head, blending into the speech.

“I’m the real thing, but I’m unable to deny that this isn’t a clone body. You don’t know anything about me, so there’s no way for me to prove it to you. In the first place, would there be anything wrong with me being a clone body or an incarnation? Are you saying that you’d try to kill me if you were sure this was my actual body?”

With an expressionless gaze, God’s Voice’s mouth opens into a wide-mouthed grin.

『No… I’m not going to do that..』

Of course, I’d want to do so if I could. Nothing good will come from God’s Voice being alive. I don’t know anything about who they really are, but I know painfully well how dangerous and cruelly selfish they are. However, it doesn’t seem like my current strength is up to the task at all.

“Now then. Let’s keep the teasing in moderation and get to the point. I don’t want to be disliked by you too much after all. I’ll be troubled if you stay stubborn, and we then both come out with losses.”

With a clap of hands, God’s Voice directs the conversation back on track. Were those remarks intended as a joke? Having completely lost the initiative, I can only comply with wherever God’s Voice wants to lead the conversation.

“You’ve already heard all about it from Lilixira, yes? I don’t exactly keep it a secret. My aim is to create a monster with the highest [Laplace Interference Authority], and set Foren free, the creature sealed by Laplace.”

God’s Voice declares without hesitation. Foren. Something I’ve heard of only in name, it’s a mysterious giant spherical monstrosity that was sealed away eons ago. I’ve heard it called an evil god, but God’s Voice just called it a creature.

『If that happens, this world will…』

“Yup, it’ll be annihilated. The moment such a thing revives, this world will be doomed no doubt.” 

God’s Voice says in a light tone of voice, as if though it wasn’t so insane. I can’t believe what I’m  hearing. Aro and the others shuddered and showed signs of horror halfway through.

“However, it’s not all bad for you. I can guarantee you that. It’s because we stand to gain by cooperating that I’m not taking underhanded means and am coming to you in this friendly manner.”

『W-what nonsense are you blabbering about! Such a thing, as if I’d…』

“You want to go back to being human, don’t you?”

God’s Voice’s irregular left arm points at me.

“If you bring [Laplace Interference Authority] to its highest level, even your missing memories can be brought back. It’s just a little bit complicated, so you might not be able to do it by yourself, but I’ll even help you out there.”

“In the first place, it was weird that you possessed remnants of your memories from another world. There’s usually no way Laplace would let such a defect persist. Of course, there’s no way I’d be able to obtain the maximum level of [Laplace Interference Authority] without taking advantage of Laplace’s mistakes, so hastily threw together plans for a Hero–Demon Lord war, and made the [Skill Take] skill, which directly interfaces between the world and the system, in a slime. Those malformed memories of yours… They’re probably a bug with Lalplace from that slime extracting the [Asura Realm] skill that I implanted you. The divine skills, the skill to interfere with the system – they shouldn’t be in this world in the first place, so Laplace couldn’t crush them like the usual bugs. The same trick probably won’t work twice though.”

God’s Voice prattles on, seemingly full of themself. Just where are they going with this?

“I know more about you than you know yourself. You can feel at ease. Even if this world’s seal is undone and everything is annihilated, you would return to your original world. That’s what you’ve been longing for all this time: a peaceful life as a single human.”

I-I can return to my original world? Up till now, I haven’t considered such a thing, not even for a bit.

【Fufu, it’s natural to be suspicious. I came from the same world as you, you know. You and I, we have the right to let this world come to an end and return to our own world.】

The speech switches to direct messages.

【I had intended for you to be just a data sample, but I can sense you’re more valuable than that. Now, I’m certain you’ll help bring this world to an end. How about it? Will you work under me, raising your levels and piling on evolutions, then put a final end to this world?】

The direct communication might be to prevent Aro and the others from overhearing. To be frank, I can’t wrap my head around this. Such things like the original world, God’s Voice being from the same world as me,  letting this world be destroyed; the scale of it drives me to my knees.

【How about it? If you accept my proposal, then show me your will and resolve. Reduce all those here to experience points. At any rate, they’ll only become Foren’s prey sooner or later. You can kill them in an instant without them having to suffer.】

However, whatever the scale of the conversation is, there’s no way I’d accept such a proposal. There’s no doubt much more about this world that I know too little about. However, even if I understood everything, there’s no way I could even consider sacrificing everyone I’ve ever met to return to a life I don’t even remember.

I fix my eyes on God’s Voice and swing my foreleg. A scar from [Dimension Claw] cuts through the landscape.

『My reply’s a ‘NO’! That goes without saying! Even if you meant it as negotiation trick don’t ever utter such bullshit again!』

Miia’s stone slab crumbles, and God’s Voice descends from their perch.

“Do you know just who you’re doing this to? Even though I didn’t think that you’d be this thickheaded.”

I should have dealt it a direct hit with my claw attack. However, there’s not so much as a graze.

“That’s fine. I had been thinking that I’d need to show you what happens if you oppose me. Well then, whose life shall I take first?”

God’s Voice blurry left arm extends a finger at Aro, then moves  to treant.

『Just try laying a finger on one of them. From this point on, I don’t have plan on listening to you at all. I’ll fight to take your damn head until the  end.』

I bare my fangs and growl with a rumble.

『Troubled, aren’t you? That I’m going to die a pointless death after you took so much pains to raise me.』

God’s Voice finger stops in its tracks. Their brow furrows deeply in clear aggravation. For the first time, I’m seeing something that isn’t a carefree expression.

Lilixira told me to never go along with God’s Voice’s wishes. I’ll do it. I’ll fight God’s Voice head on. There’s no way I’m going to let it do as it pleases. I won’t allow such a thing to destroy our world either. And of course, most of all, I won’t let it harm a hair of my companions either.
