Boundless Necromancer

458. Catastrophe (5)

Suddenly, I remembered the story that Dam Cheon-woo gave me as a warning not long ago.

━If even the fake ancient deities created by the Tower of Trials are as real as the real thing, then you wouldn’t be so willing to do so.

His words passed by in a split second, as if he was replaying a story from an old video.

━Are you sure you will never notice that this fake world created by the Tower of Trials is a cage made just for you?

A story about not underestimating the intelligence of the fake ancient gods who exist in the war of gods and who are infinitely closer to the real thing.

━If each of those ancient deities were monsters that carved their own divinity and concepts into the universe, wouldn’t they know that they themselves are ‘fake’?

…If I think about it now, there was nothing wrong with what I said.

━And what kind of thoughts and actions do you think the fake ancient deity created by the Tower of Trials will show?

I realized it a long time later.

━In that case, is it only beneficial to you that in this war of gods, the ancient gods that existed in the beginning of time have been recreated at the same level as the real thing?

In fact, there are only a few people, like the Dragon God or the Proof God, who can show favor to me even if they have a vague sense or realization of the truth of the world.

‘All three ancient gods have a mental world that cannot be understood through general logic, similar to the God of Proof.’

At that time, the God of Proof helped me by sacrificing his own concept of divinity even though he realized that he who existed in the war of gods was not real but a fake.

“….”

Then wouldn’t the opposite case also exist?

[The demon looks at you and smiles.]

[Why? Did you think that everyone except the God of Time would notice? You have poor imagination. It’s only a matter of time for beings like the Dark God and the Dragon God. It’s something you’re bound to notice at some point. ]

like now.

Turp, plod, trudge -.

The demon god parted his lips while standing in front of the god of light who seemed to be wandering through death.

[God of time. He said that time and space seemed to be distorted due to impurities that appeared somewhere. He didn’t seem to have any intention of saying anything more than that, but when I think about it, there have been a few strange things about him for some time now. ]

The Demon God continued speaking with a cold smile scattered beneath his black half-mask.

[ Divinity. And soul. They both looked somewhat awkward and strangely different from before, as if someone was playing a prank on them. I don’t know who did it, but there were traces of reconstruction in my divinity and soul. When I thought about what that meant, I found the answer. ]

He spoke about what he realized about the war of the gods.

[ FALSE. I am fake, not real. It’s not just me, it’s the same for everything that exists in the War of Gods. I knew that the distortion of space and time that the God of Time had mentioned happened because this was a fake world created by someone. ]

Even though the demon himself mentioned that it was fake and not real, he didn’t seem particularly shocked.

[The ‘impurity’ that led to the distortion of space and time mentioned by the God of Time probably also refers to you from the real world. ]

If I were to be specific, it seemed like he was solving an answer to a problem that wasn’t that great.

[Well, I also have the supernormal ability to vividly experience past stories based on world records, so it’s not something I can’t understand. ]

Instead, the demon god kissed his lips with a smile full of victory.

[ Rather, it is important that you, a being from the ‘real world’ rather than this war of gods, have powers that are rare even in the entire universe. ]

Perhaps the Demon God is the being who possessed the ‘Remegeton’ that was used to prepare for the ‘War of the Gods’, so it seems that he can remain relatively calm even if he knows that this is a fake world and not the real world…

[ I came down and had a look just in case… ]

That had a negative impact.

[The Demon God looks at you and bursts into laughter full of joy and anticipation.]

[I’m excited. A being that can demonstrate a pure power struggle on the same level as me. I never thought I would actually be able to see the rival that I thought I would never find my whole life. ]

The Demon God was not concerned about the ‘real world’ or the ‘fake world’.

[From the beginning, I thought that this war of gods, whether in the ‘real world’ or the ‘fake world’, was all just trivial, so I thought it would be nice to end it quickly no matter what…]

He did not distinguish between the real and the fake, and this moment itself is fully accepting.

[ Now I hope not to wake up from this dream for a very, very long time. ]

Unfortunately.

[This is my first time. Although I have traveled all over the universe and seen all kinds of strong people… no one could compete in a power struggle on equal footing with me like you. That’s why it’s special. ]

Tdu-duk-.

[Do you know that in the end, everything is finite and therefore beautiful? ]

The Demon God continued speaking, lightly stretching his body as if stretching.

[I became an ancient god and lived the life of an immortal that everyone envied for a long time, but I have deeply felt that a life where everything lasts forever is more terrible than I could imagine. ]

The emotion contained in the divine voice was a boredom I had never seen before.

[No matter how great and enjoyable it is, if you repeat it dozens, hundreds, thousands of times, and countless more times, you will get tired of it. ]

If I were to really ask the question, should I say that it is a feeling of boredom bordering on emptiness?

[In the past, fighting against a strong person was enough to make me feel satisfied, but as I continued to fight for a long time, the satisfaction disappeared everywhere and everything slowly started to feel like a game. ]

I felt an overwhelming emptiness.

[Ancient Godhead. Since he is immortal, a fight between life and death cannot occur, so the stimulation of tension and crisis gradually decreases. And at the same time, everything became boring. Because of that, it has become difficult to feel joy in fights against strong opponents. ]

After finishing the warm-up, the Demon God spoke with a self-deprecating smile.

[Isn’t it ironic? Even though he became an ancient god and broke away from the bondage of the mortal body, he cannot escape from the shackles of fading values that occur in the spiritual world. The only thing that increased with time was boredom. […]

It wasn’t that difficult to understand what he meant.

[I traveled around the universe and often competed with ancient gods, but it was no more than entertainment. Because he is immortal. No matter how fiercely we fight, as long as divinity and concepts exist, there will be no such thing as extinction. [… ]

The value of life.

In fact, the demon god has become an ancient deity and has lost the driving force to move forward after continuing his life.

Even if you look at the entire universe, it would be quite trivial to say that there are very few strong people who can rival the lords of the universe, such as the God of Darkness and the Demon Dragon God.

[The Demon God blatantly shows his expectations towards you.]

[But what about you? ]

Is that why?

[‘Transcendence’ and ‘death’. A person who possesses two concepts of divinity that have never appeared in this universe as the basis of divinity. In your power that unilaterally overwhelms even the God of Light, I see the possibility of shattering the immortality of the ancient godhead. ]

I was able to clearly understand why the demon god showed such a strong desire to win against me.

[The Demon God cannot control his excitement and bursts out laughing.]

[If that were the case, wouldn’t that be enough for me to truly enjoy the fight of my life…!! ]

It was simple.

[Even if this is a ‘fake world’ and not a ‘real world’, that can’t be an excuse not to achieve what I want…!! ]

In the first place, the story itself, whether it was real or fake, was meaningless to the Demon God.

[ ha ha ha-! Is it a real world or a fake world…!! Even if you think about it, isn’t it meaningless? It’s enough for me to be here at this moment and the match I’ve been longing for my whole life is also in front of me! If all of this is a dream that you have no choice but to wake up from one day, shouldn’t you enjoy its sweetness to the fullest? ]

For the Demon God, all of this is only seen as an opportunity to satisfy the desire to win and fight that he has pursued his whole life.

Even if it is fake and not real, nothing changes.

I was able to essentially see through the image of the being standing before my eyes.

‘…It’s just that from the beginning, the demon god didn’t have the option of not fighting me.’

In the first place, the demon god was also one of the ancient deities, and his mental world itself was distorted.

Even if you are just a fake and not real, if you can enjoy a moment of pleasure, isn’t that enough?

As one of the three ancient gods and the lord of the universe, the being who had lived for nearly eternity was completely distorted from the very foundation of his mind.

‘…shit.’

As a result, I broke into a cold sweat and had to curse in my heart.

If the God of Time uses a little more strength in the future, he may succeed in overlaying the divine confrontation realm with the sacred realm.

But despite this, I felt like my stomach was turning because the demon god no longer left any room for conversation with me.

‘…I have no choice but to fight.’

It’s not even just that.

Unlike before, the God of Light, who has fallen behind the Demon God, has recovered his divine body to some extent and appears to be slowly regaining enough strength to fight.

Whether the God of Time overwrites the Divine Confrontation Realm with the Holy Realm or the God of Light helps by his side, it was obvious that this side would become more and more disadvantaged as time passed.

So….

‘It’s all or nothing.’

There was really only one choice.

‘Somehow exclude the demon god.’

In response, I moved forward, drawing the power of divinity and mana from my entire body.

──────!!

In the blink of an eye, a strike was fired at the speed of light, signaling the beginning of a hopeless fight.
