The steps under his feet vibrated slightly, making a slight rumbling sound.

The gigantic god sat leisurely on the throne, ignoring the body that was gradually peeling off and dying.He probably has already seen through the changes in the world, and now, there is not even a single ripple in his eyes.

Dues looked faintly at the blue sky in the fantasy space, then seemed to have noticed something, and looked down to a certain direction of the Great Temple of Karma: "You are here."

A figure appeared in front of Dues.He looked around first, but he didn't see Murumu - of course, there was no sign of other bearers - then he turned his gaze back to Dues.

Dues is not in a hurry to speak, his huge mask is gradually crumbling like his body, and the big eye hides in the subtle shadow of the god's face, glowing a faint red.

He just stared at the visitor quietly, as if looking at his favorite work, until the other party thought about it and said, "Dues."

"Come to see me suddenly, what happened, Xuehui." Dues asked knowingly.

Amano Yukiki narrowed his eyes with a complicated expression: "You obviously know it all, don't you... from Akigase-kun. I just don't understand why it is Akigase-kun?"

Amano Xuehui's question contained a lot of information, but Dues nodded approvingly: "I didn't expect you to be aware of this. Since your guesses are almost inseparable, then I'll just tell you all about it." ——The purpose of your coming to me this time is not for 'him'."

"All of this is actually because of Murumu. It is because of her that I noticed the existence of 'Akigase or'." Dues raised his eyes, as if thinking about something, with that With an interesting expression, "Different from the 2nd now, Akigase is, indeed, the person of the [-]nd week. Let's put it this way, it was actually a while ago."

Dues paused, he observed every expression of Amano Xuehui, but the boy was just listening to his words, the expression on his face remained the same as before, without any change.

The god of time and space felt a little bored, and Mingye Xuehui would show it on his face when he thought of it before.Sure enough, the Amano Xuehui before participating in the diary battle was more interesting.

"At that time, I just thought that Mulu Mulu's little tricks seemed very interesting, so I let her do it. Now that I think about it, from that time on, Mulu Mulu should have been replaced by her from the 'future'." Dues twisted his lips amusedly, "It's really interesting to be underestimated by my own familiar. She thought I was just a useless guy who was about to disappear, but that time, she was really wrong."

"She accidentally smashed the 2nd's law of causality, causing 2nd to disappear. However, at that time, the second week's diary battle had already begun. If 2nd disappeared, 1st would die too—killed by 3rd, and then become the first to be killed by [-]rd. The diary holder who was eliminated." Dues looked down at Amano Xuehui condescendingly, the boy lowered his head slightly, and he couldn't see his expression clearly.

"So, the most urgent thing is to keep 1st alive, and then let the game continue like the first week."

"However, when Mulu Mulu rushed over, 1st was caught up by 3rd and seriously injured... Let me think about where it is." Dues glanced at Amano Yuki's clenched fist, "Oh, that's it In a building under renovation in Sakurami City, on the 14th floor—the place where you were marked as DEADEND for the first time—then, you and Akigase met there.”

"You were seriously injured by the 3rd attack, and it seemed hopeless. Well, maybe human beings want to live desperately before they die. I used to be like this. So when Akigase helped you up , your eyes seemed to catch the last ray of hope, and you asked him for help."

"I don't know what Akigase or that kid was thinking. His face suddenly softened and he decided to save you. He made a condition to Mulu Mulu that he would be in charge of your diary battle progress during your serious injury; relatively Yes, she must heal you." Dues propped his chin, and told what he saw at that time bit by bit, "I was still wondering why he did so much for you, but then I figured it out gone."

"That Akigase fell in love with you the moment you asked him for help." He said while glancing at Amano Yuki who seemed unresponsive, "But Akigase is a detective after all, he The style of dealing with the incident is completely different from my wife Yuno and even you. Compared with killing each other, he thinks it is unnecessary. Therefore, the progress of the game is the same as now, getting slower and slower, and the law of causality has the possibility of irreversible changes Of course, Murumu will not tolerate this kind of thing going on. So while Akigase is going to fight the diary battle on your behalf, Murumu is also doubly restoring the law of karma of my wife Yuno that was damaged by her.”

"And in the end, Murumu repaired the 2nd law of karma first, and used you to successfully make Akigase lose his memory." Dues propped his chin casually, "But now think about it, the blade of the memory The power is nothing more than that. Although it made Akigase forget 1st, but his feelings for 1st remained. And, when he saw the 1st of "this time" for the first time, that feeling returned again in his perception."

"It's just that he has no previous memories, so he always thought that he fell in love with you at first sight this time." Dues said while shaking his head, "It's not."

"He didn't notice it all the time, but you did, Xuehui." Dues said slowly, "That's right, Akigase may have seen something that shouldn't be seen in the end, just to be on the safe side, Murumu even put Akigase or this real 'person' is also eliminated."

"The current Akigase is just a high-level information aggregation created by me to monitor the diary battle." Dues was silent for a while, and finally said a fact that made Amano Xuehui's face turn pale, " All his actions are granted by my will, and everything about him is false. Of course, there is only one exception, that is his feelings for you. But what is the use of this kind of mood, once I die, he will be my The created things will also be disintegrated with my disappearance, and finally return to the records of the whole universe (Aksi records).”

"This is the end of Akigase, Yuki." Dues stared at Yuki Amano's tight body, "So stop doing unnecessary struggles, you just need to put yourself into this game and win."

Amano Xuehui didn't move for a long time, and didn't know what he was thinking.Finally, he said softly: "That is to say, you don't recognize the current Akigase-kun?"

"...That's right." Dues lifted his chin, "His existence is just an illusion created by me."

——The young detective disappeared long before the game started.

There seemed to be a broken voice in my head.

Amano Xuehui stared blankly at the toes of his shoes, his whole body stiffened.

Although, I thought about the various relationships between Dues and Akigase, but I never imagined that Akase had already been dragged into this muddy water because of himself before that.Even before the start of this game, the familiar of Dues—no, it should be said to be my wife Yuno now—was both erasing memory and erasing existence.

It's so ridiculous.

"Even the current Akigase-kun is real." Amano Yukiki thought a lot before speaking.Then, as if he had caught some clue, his dim eyes brightened a little.

"Huh? Even now, do you still think so? Then I'll have to listen carefully to the reason why you said that." Dues propped his chin and lowered his eyes with interest.

"First of all, it's Akigase-kun's determination. I don't think you, the god of time and space, would be biased towards me like this. Although you are indeed optimistic about me, if I am marked as DEADEND by other holders, don't you? I will take care of it. It should be said that you will watch with great interest instead of thinking about how to kill the diary holder like Akigase-kun. If Akase-kun really puts it into action, you I will dismantle him immediately without hesitation... just like what you told me about Murumu doing to Akigase-kun."

Dues sat up slightly on the throne: "Oh? That's right. If he interferes too much in the game as a monitor, I will indeed eliminate his existence immediately. Hmm...? So you just shot him directly ?”

"Second is the sub-diary about 8th." Amano Yuki frowned, "I used to think that Akigase-kun was just an ordinary person, but then he suddenly had a future diary. For a while, I thought he was you hiding But gradually, I found that this is not the case. Akigase-kun didn’t get the future diary from you, but his diary’s existence is reasonable. So I was wondering... Could it be the 8th diary reason."

"Thinking of the possibility of the 8th son's diary, those problems are easily solved. Although I don't understand what kind of negotiations he had with 8th. But it's not important." Amano Xuehui directly ignored Dues' question, his speech speed A little quick, with a slight lack of self-confidence in it, "If he is just your will, then he doesn't have his own will, that is to say...he won't have the current [Detective Diary]—— —Dues, you're such a wicked person, you know all of this, but you always act as if you don't know."

The huge god stared straight at Amano Xuehui, who looked back at him with his head raised, without the slightest intention to back down.

"You've grown up very fast, Xuehui." After a few seconds of silence, Dues nodded, "Although I prefer you who were easy to bully before."

"..." Amano Xuehui twitched the corner of his mouth.

"However, for what purpose did you wound Akigase? I'm curious about that." Dues returned to this question.

"What's the benefit of talking about it?" Amano Xuehui asked back.

"...If your answer satisfies me. I will try to keep your Akigase." Dues teased.

"Didn't you say it before? I just need to win this game." The darkness in Amano Xuehui's eyes finally loosened a little, and he answered irrelevantly, "I want to win - is this answer satisfactory to you? "

"Xuehui, do you know that you are so cunning Akise?" Dues asked cautiously after a long silence.

"...He knows that I won't be standing here now." Amano Xuehui said expressionlessly.
