Xingyue, is Xiaokai also considered Kai?

The impact shattered all his thoughts, causing Taira no Masakado's vision to spin. After what felt like an eternity to him, his body collapsed uncontrollably, and a hole appeared in the chest of the enormous bodhisattva phantom, which was dissipating.

Just like when he was killed by Omoita while he was still alive, his entire body instantly became incredibly hot, as if it were being burned from the inside out—

"Unexpectedly..."

He no longer possessed the magic to stand up again.

Even if he could stand up, it would be impossible for him to defeat an enemy he had never even seen before, with his spirit core shattered and his body covered in wounds.

There is only one dead end.

Because he was far stronger than Omoteto, the ancestor of Japanese martial arts who defeated him, it was only natural that he was able to kill Susanoo in Tokyo.

"Even my immortality has been shattered..."

Taira no Masakado's body quickly transformed into blue spiritual particles, and his still-present body involuntarily collapsed next to the 'flattened' Tokyo Tower.

Was Tokyo destroyed by him ten years ago? No, although it's horrifying, it definitely wasn't him. It was a local deity that destroyed Tokyo; that goes without saying. And the reason Tokyo still has some remnants instead of being completely swallowed up is because of the Tokyo Tower...

Tokyo Tower is the tallest tower in Japan. In this world, 2012 marked the beginning of a new world, so the Skytree, which was originally scheduled to be built in 2012, was not completed and therefore could not replace Tokyo Tower.

Just as consciousness was about to fade into darkness—

A group of dog statues suddenly appeared in Taira no Masakado's line of sight. They were erected at the entrance of Tokyo Tower to commemorate the dogs that participated in the first Antarctic expedition. Before he knew it, they were so far away from Taira no Masakado that he couldn't touch them even if he stretched out his hand.

However, whether by accident or intention, just as he was about to lose consciousness and return to his seat, Taira Masakado touched the base of the statue. Ten years ago, an ordinary citizen had left behind graffiti that expressed his will that 'it is not over yet'—a graffiti that had no magic or mystery.

Was it the Tokyo Tower that prevented Tokyo's destruction, or was it these words that caused it? Taira no Masakado could no longer know.

I'm...sorry...I failed to protect Tokyo...

After those words were the last to surface in his mind, Taira no Masakado returned to the Throne of Heroes as his Soul Core completely collapsed.

Only two seconds have passed from the start until now.

In the next instant, amidst the dense, lush trees surrounding the flattened Tokyo Tower, which seemed like a chaotic dance of demons, 'he' surged forth with overwhelming light from the dark and deep sea of ​​trees. At the same time, as if to split the heavens and the earth, lightning struck down from the sky with deafening roars, bringing the 'wrath' of the King of Armenia.

The great deeds of heroes are not only about admirable acts, but also about dramatic fates that seem to be manipulated by the gods.

David's father was Mugel the Great, who led the Sassons to victory over the invading power of Musel and made it a vassal state. He was also the brother of Melik, the king of Musel. When Melik died, Melik's widow, Ismir, said, "Now that my beloved is dead, you should come and take care of me and inherit his kingdom as promised." Mugel the Great went to Musel against his wife's wishes.

Thus, the king who should have been bathed in glory was 'lured' by Ismir at his own brother's funeral. In the end, Great Muger lingered in the court of Musel for seven years, had a child, and when Great Muger was driven out, he had gone from a king bathed in glory to a useless person who was ignored by everyone.

He even heard Ismir tell his newborn child, "One day he will destroy Sasson," and thus abandoned his glory, no longer able to call himself king. This remnant of a hero, upon returning to Sasson, attempted to stop this future with his wife. However, his wife had previously said that if Da Mughal insisted on going, they would no longer be husband and wife for forty years.

At the urging of a one-eyed pastor, the two eventually had a child in the name of 'God's gift'.

However, his wife, who had broken her vow, died on the day their child was born, and on the same day, Mugel, filled with remorse, also breathed his last.

This is how David was born.

"Indeed, O Lord, that is indeed...your blood."

David, with his blond hair, spotted Eri Se at the Kanda Festival not far away with his sharp eyes and pointed his sword at her from his left hand.

"Is the goal to forge a mind of dominion...? But, Master—"

"I just want to fight to the death once again with the God who manipulates the fate of the Sassoon."

With earth-shattering force, light, as dense as the eight oceans, surged forth from the sword and flew straight toward Erise.

In the epic, only God could interrupt a blow powerful enough to destroy the world.

At the same time, countless scenes flowed past David like a torrent. The moment he unleashed this attack, he had already teleported to the commercial district where the Kanda Festival was being held. On the street not far from Kanda Shrine, he walked in the opposite direction of the festival crowd as if nothing had happened, and walked up to the phoenix palanquin representing the three goddesses and the priestess, A-xiu.

"...Hmm? You're here for the Kanda Festival too?"

Ah-Shu had not yet sensed the dissipation of Taira no Masakado, because David's aura disrupted the 'contract' and affected his perception.

David was not a bloodthirsty man. As Armenia's greatest hero, he would not harm ordinary people. He and his father had completely opposite lives.

Only Tiamat and Eri Se were able to sense the unusual aura of David. Tiamat was able to detect that the power within the 'child' in front of her was probably that of her true self, and even her true self would not be able to handle it easily.

Eri noticed instinctively that her bug mom's beautiful body was trembling uncontrollably, as if she had seen some terrifying enemy, and that blond man was staring at her... Oh no, could he be her mom's enemy?

"You all continue, I just need—"

David, who was staring intently at Eri, suddenly felt a deadly and overwhelming magical force touching his body. When he turned his head, he looked incredulously at the silver-haired youth who had somehow put his arm around his shoulder, namely Novia.

"what?"

David stared in astonishment.

The unseen light surrounding him possessed an overwhelming mass that was enough to obliterate any being that dared to approach him.

Under normal circumstances, this person would already be dead.

After all, in Armenian epics, David and his son are absolute powers... of course, this refers to the general situation.

"Haha, this is an 'acquaintance' of mine."

Novia's voice echoed across the raging sea, and as it traveled through the air, it struck David's blow, shattering into countless pieces.

"You guys continue, I'll talk to him for a bit."

Then, the next moment——

Tokyo trembled at the impending bloodshed.

Light and roar erupted, flashes and shocks tore through the darkness, and countless bolts of lightning danced wildly.

Is that all you've got?

A battlefield unlike any other—that's probably what this scene is all about.

Against a backdrop of light and thunder emerging from the sky, Novia slowly walked toward David, who was holding a sword.

He was completely unharmed, not a drop of blood had been shed, his breathing was steady, and he hadn't even soiled a single part of his body. David was the same.

At this moment, David, who had come to Tokyo Tower with Novia, coldly said to Novia:

"I feel like I've seen you somewhere before."

In this world, there are always traces of the strong, whether they are gods or magicians.

However, the power of the person in front of him was completely illogical.

Because it is strong, it is strong; because it is terrifying, it is terrifying... that's all.

Just like the Jehovah that David had seen, it was an inexplicable power...?

“My name is Novia, and I am the one you think I am.”

David of the Sassoon.

“If it were David, he would never have such hatred for Yahweh. As Armenia’s greatest hero, despite his bizarre fate, he was a great hero in every respect.”

Novia narrowed her eyes. "I know of any Sassoon of the fourth generation who could be so angry with Yahweh."

The moment Novia voiced her doubts, David fell silent, and the light surrounding him seemed to grow even stronger and deeper.

In a moment that seemed to freeze, the men on either side of the flattened Tokyo Tower looked at each other.

Novia is right.

David was not David, but a young boy who inspired fear in David. His son had petitioned Jehovah for a fight to the death and slaughtered the seven mounted angels Mugel that Jehovah had sent. He was cursed by his father David to be 'immortal and childless'.

"Hahaha! Hahaha!"

Little Mugel's loud laughter echoed through the dimly lit Tokyo Tower, instantly turning everything around him as red as blood, and a biting wind howled.

Then, he stared at Novia with his bloodshot, almost crazed eyes.

“No, how should I put it… I’m sure of it, I really have seen ‘you’.”

"You don't have a single weapon worth mentioning on your body. I see. In fact, you yourself are the strongest weapon."

The intense madness and killing intent emanating from Little Mugel made Novia frown.

"So for some reason, I suddenly had a strong urge to kill you."

This was a mad look, like Sesshouin falling into a world of madness yet retaining her rationality; a look of blasphemous madness. Even before Novia revealed that he was not David, those eyes were those of a great hero, unyielding to any object and filled with the radiance of a strong will.

Little Gomuel is very strong, there's no doubt about that.

Because he is the original text, he incorporates elements of the Savior Jesus, as can be seen from his final choice to walk into the cliff that only opens twice a year, only when righteousness exists in the world, he is willing to truly step out; while his father David, who single-handedly slaughtered nations and armies, is a composite of Michael the God-like.

Moreover, as a hero within the Christian system, David accomplished something that no other Christian hero could—

The real killing of the Pope occurred before the major schism between the Eastern and Western churches.

Little Gomuel alone killed the seven angels sent by Jehovah.

The Book of Revelation explicitly mentions that God has seven angels before Him, one of whom is Michael…

Although it is not explicitly stated who the seven angels are, the number seven is still intriguing, especially considering that Jehovah is quite generous in not caring about it, allowing them to live until the day of 'Judgment Day'.

However, for Novia, the only one who could possibly defeat him is the Hunnic King.

Let's leave aside the fact that the Holy Spirit did not appear.

The Sun UO, capable of defeating Oort, is not something that any being on a sea planet can defeat. However, Earth in Fr is currently under a blockade by Mott, restricting the concept of 'exploration'. This means that if Novia wants to contact the Sun, she would have to break the blockade. Novia estimates that it should only take a few seconds, but this was something she originally intended to leave to Tiamat...

Even if it's not the Sun UO, the Fifth Sun is enough, after all, the American version of 'Jehovah' isn't without basis.

As for Buddha, that's even simpler.

Little Mggle stared at Novia, but with an expression that betrayed no emotion.

"...Why must this cruel fate befall me?"

"Let me state this first: I am neither Yahweh nor Jehovah. I'll make that clear from the beginning."

“But you are Novia, the Holy Spirit.”

"That seems correct, even though I haven't succeeded yet..."

Novia replied nonchalantly, "Can you kill me, little Mugel?"

"Yes. I can do it. In the distant past, when you killed those seven angels before your eyes, you should have killed me or taken my soul! Instead of letting me continue to walk in this hypocritical world, forcing me to be alone for eternity. I should say I knew this long, long ago—I have always lived for this purpose!"

Little Mugel declared in a frenzied manner, "The real God! Fight me to the death, or take my soul!"

"No one can decide where another person's soul will go, not even me."

So Novia raised her hand.

"Little Mugel, this time the challenge—"

that moment.

The underworld of Tokyo—no, the entire world—began to tremble.

Finally, an absolute brilliance that once illuminated the world emanated from Novia.

"I took it."

Chapter 527 Jehovah's Amorous Debts (7.K)

"...It's finally here! I've been waiting for this day for so long!"

Little Mugel's voice and eyes were filled with joy and anger as he roared, "Hypocritical you and this world, I will destroy them!"

The shockwave, capable of piercing the soul, traveled thousands of miles, shaking the planets from the Earth's core.

Moreover, the holy sword he wielded, carrying a violent aura, forcefully approached from the other side. Logically speaking, no one should be able to resist it. The tyrannical side of the hero manifested a desperate violence capable of utterly destroying everything—the divine sword of lightning pierced through the heavens and the earth, destroying the human world and the inner sea together.

The epic says that if the One God had not stopped it in time, everything on the sea planet would have been completely destroyed.

This sea sword, which obeyed the Virgin Mary and obtained from the deep sea, was named after lightning. As legend has it, it contained the highest and most mysterious thunder of Armenia and connected everything called 'sea'. The seawater surrounding Tokyo, which was already submerged by the sea, echoed the sword's words and bared its fangs at Noviin.

The seawater formed an unnatural whirlpool, transforming into countless vacuum blades, attempting to tear Novia to pieces. In the sky, layers of thick, dark clouds struck down with bolts of lightning at Novia. The swirling black dust first crystallized, then transformed into countless sharp blades.

The scene resembled the end of the world, or rather, hell.

However, this is limited to the Tokyo Tower area.

The first Sasson, the progenitor of the Sassons, was born from the mother of an Armenian sea goddess who received the blessing of a single god.

Without a doubt, the divine aura of the One God resides within this last Sassoon, far surpassing that of the previous three Sassoons, including his father.

Logically speaking, the first three Saxons were all heroes who believed in Jehovah. Even when the allied forces of the nations invaded Saxony under the guidance of the Pope, David, after single-handedly defeating all the invaders, was determined to kill the culprit, the Pope.

I am a person who has been continued because of the Lord's mercy, and everything I have is obtained through the Holy Mother.

David, Little Mugel's father, must have thought the same thing.
