Xingyue, is Xiaokai also considered Kai?

The chain of explosions has caused untold devastation. Typhon, having withstood all this attack yet not being completely destroyed, truly possesses an extraordinary strength.

"It seems like you've misunderstood something."

That's why Mingguang's tone became even more upbeat and full of joy.

It was precisely because the other party's anger was so pure that she felt it was just as she expected.

“I am the mother. But there is someone here who fits the concept of a daughter even better than I do.” Mingguang swung away the fist that was approaching him and spoke in a simple tone. “I admit that I am ‘Father’s’ daughter. But she is ‘the older sister’ who is closer to ‘Father’ than I am. I never deny that.”

".......What?"

Shejina couldn't understand Mingguang's words at all.

All consciousness ceased its activity for a moment, and there were two reasons for falling into deep thought.

The first reason is self-evident. If the person before her, Jiamingguang, is not a mixed concept of "mother" and "daughter," then her identity as a "daughter" should not be replaced.

The deviations now appearing in the calculations must be corrected immediately.

But none of the angels here possess this attribute. Since the light before me is only a "mother" and not a "daughter," then I am the only "daughter," which is only natural.

However, why——

wrong.

And that guy too!

Shejina finally realized it.

Besides the angels who confront her, there is another reason why she descended here in the first place.

She was the only girl who wasn't wearing angelic attire, but rather the attire of the sin of "gluttony"—

Utsumi Eri Sei.

"very good."

Shejina sneered.

I cannot forgive, and I do not intend to forgive.

Having usurped her own identity as a "mother" and her own identity as a "daughter," the purity she displays is so difficult to resist.

She took a step forward, her toes lightly touching the outstretched hand of the ultimate Satan, letting the massive mechanical body lift her into the air.

His expression remained indifferent, but his eyes burned with pure madness.

"You're all trash! I'm going to kill you all, annihilate you! I'm going to make sure 'you' are completely dissolved into my consciousness... Okay, I'll tell you one more time. I am who I am. Don't compare me to you, you imposters!"

"Hoo-ha..."

The sigh that Mingguang let out was filled with unbridled joy.

Although it was just a conjecture, at this moment she had already felt a certain resonance with Utsumi Erise, who was still in a coma.

In particular, Typhon, the calamity star under her command, is a collective of the concept of "god-slaying" and is reacting with a certain quality hidden in Eri.

If a concept based on "god-killing" fails to work, then what about "god-destroying weapons"?

The combination of the two will inevitably deal a devastating blow to Shejina, the "god" shaped by "human chanting".

Moreover, in the Hermetic Kabbalah of alchemical theology to which Utsumi Erise's essence, "The Mind of the Lord - Perimanderes," belongs, it represents wisdom, which is the second substance of the Kabbalah Tree of Life.

In the Hermes-Kabbalah system, the angel of wisdom, "Phimanderges," manifests as a triune entity.

One is considered to be the holy name of God, "Jah"; another is the "Ophanim," who guards God's throne, or even is God's throne himself; and the last one is quite related to the archangels who appear at this moment, that is, the true owner of the Book of Raziel, whose name means "mystery of God"—the archangel Raziel.

The reason why Novia didn't prepare an angel costume for Eri beforehand is quite simple.

The existence of "The Mind of the Lord - Perimanderges" alone is enough.

therefore.

The time was a little earlier.

Just as Shejina descended upon this battlefield in the guise of "Midras God".

Eri felt like she had a very strange dream.

Perhaps, it is seeing the "present" located in the "Sea Within the Stars".

The reason I say "perhaps" is because this is not a visual perception, but an intuitive judgment derived from the instinct of being a "son of Izanami".

The inner sea of ​​stars.

Eri Se remembered that when Novia was still the Demon King, she had said something to her.

That was the "inner world" located on the inner side of the planet, which was the destination of most of the mysteries on Earth after the end of the Age of Gods—gods, elves, and various fantasy species.

However, what confused the bewildered Erise the most was...

Isn't the decor style of this Starry Sea a bit too cluttered?

It's not the kind of messy, dirty, or chaotic kind.

Rather, it is a highly impactful sense of disharmony that forcibly blends together cultures from several eras and civilizations.

Greek Corinthian columns, soaring to the heavens, seem to support a nonexistent sky; Indian bronze statues, three-headed and six-armed, stand silently in a corner, their surfaces covered with a thin layer of dust; a Fenrir wolf head tapestry from Northern Europe grins menacingly, as if about to unleash a destructive roar; an Egyptian gold-flecked scarab beetle shimmers with eternal brilliance under a light cast from an unknown source; an American solar calendar disc hangs haphazardly on the wall like a tapestry; a giant shimenawa (sacred rope) woven from straw from Japan serves as a curtain to some other space; a Celtic magic ball woven from oak branches and mistletoe slowly rotates in the air…

It's like a collection room that brings together all the mythological systems from around the world in one place.

Suddenly, Eri "saw" someone.

She had that feeling.

The other person's footsteps were heavy and rough.

At the edge of her vision, a one-eyed man, holding an ancient-looking long spear and wearing a large helmet, walked step by step across the earth.

Who is he?

I can't think of it, but Eri Sei feels like she looks somewhat familiar.

The one-eyed man walked to the end of the road, right in front of Eri.

He tapped the ground lightly with his spear, letting out a somewhat hoarse and strange laugh.

"What, Zeus? Now you're the only one left, so I'm giving you one last piece of advice, aren't I? There's no need to hesitate any longer."

Upon hearing this, Eri saw a flash of lightning.

This one-eyed man is Odin, the great god of Norse mythology.

And the direction of his conversation—

He was a tall man with white hair and golden eyes, whose imposing figure resembled that of a standing lion.

Zeus, the Greek god-king.

"...It's not that I disagree."

Zeus spoke.

His voice, however, was the complete opposite of his imposing appearance; it sounded somewhat stiff, even muttering, and was a very hesitant, unresolved voice.

"On the contrary, if 'that' is activated and truly operated at such full power, it will inevitably attract the attention of the 'mothership' and cause it to come and investigate. At that time, it will only create an even greater crisis for this planet."

"This is so troublesome~ Nothing works, nothing will work—"

"Shut up, birdman."

The sound of arguing came from behind the solar calendar tapestry.

Then, a blond man wearing sunglasses walked out lazily.

For some reason, Eri felt as if he had secretly winked in her direction.

The First Sun of the Aztecs: Smoke Mirror.

“Hey buddy,” Smoke Mirror walked up to Zeus familiarly and patted him on the shoulder, “wasn’t the giant (Sepharus) the one your Greek fleet provoked? So, it’s no big deal, buddy.”

"...We never expected things to turn out this way."

The Smoke Mirror's words are correct. The reason the Colossus was sent by the Traveling Star was because it detected that the technology of the solar system had reached a point where it could be 'invaded,' and that was only because of the arrival of the Greek fleet... This was mentioned by Archimedes in FE, where Sephalus's arrival was due to the mechanical god located on Earth.

"Alright, alright, buddy," Smoke Mirror continued, patting his shoulder. "While my Maya aren't like your Olympians, who're all about high technology, but rather pure development, we both come from the universe, and that's something we have in common. How about it? Just bring out the wreckage of your fleet and share it... Although some of it has been mostly dismantled by the Drifters, that 'Typhon' is your own fully automated arms factory. So it'll be pretty convenient, right?"

“Actually, I have also gained quite a bit of insight into Sephalus.” Odin also raised his spear at the opportune moment, the eternal spear—Gungnir.

"........"

Zeus fell silent for a moment, then turned his gaze toward the direction where Eri was.

This made Eri think she had a physical body, but when she looked down, she found that she couldn't even see a pair of hands.

"I think it's definitely feasible."

Three figures emerged from the bronze statue of the Indian deity.

Vishnu, standing on the far left, said this with a smile.

"So, this is the only way, right? Why don't we all rush in and beat them up! Don't tell me this won't work either?"

The same voice came from behind the solar calendar tapestry again. Smoke Mirror frowned slightly and gave an awkward but polite smile.

"Huh?" Upon hearing this voice, Brahma, the creator god among the three gods, immediately showed a surprised expression.

Meanwhile, Shiva on the far right gave him a subtle wink, his expression seemingly saying, "You better behave yourself."

“For reference,” Vishnu continued, “as a stellar-level enemy, there is none in the recorded history of this planet, at least not here. The closest would be Atlantis, which could merge into one god, and your Americas. But that is because the giants on Earth could not truly reach the stellar level in terms of power.”

Odin's one eye turned toward Zeus:

"And what about Brightlight, who pilots the Calamity Star Typhon? Together with Typhon, their combat power is quite considerable, isn't it? They're probably at least planetary level. If we're talking about you, you'd be a full-power, fully-powered Typhon."

“Yes. But even if Typhon does this, there is no chance of victory.” Zeus shook his head and said decisively, “No matter how incomplete a star is, it is still a star.”

“That’s true. But I’ve encountered similar opponents myself, so I’ll offer my perspective.” Smoke Mirror nodded, then suddenly smiled. “After all, luck plays a significant role when fighting stellar-level enemies. Perhaps, luck is also a part of a warrior’s strength. And that level of warrior happens to exist in our Americas—”

Smoke Mirror probably meant to say the name Ort, but for some reason, Eri felt as if he had been struck by an invisible electric current, and in short, he got stuck.

"Haha, it's still quite troublesome." In the end, Smoke Mirror just laughed it off and brushed the topic aside.

“The key is that the idea is beyond the realm of common sense,” Zeus mused. “We can provide the mechanical data for Typhon to manufacture. However, the ‘mothership’ at that time…”

"For you to be so troubled, it seems your 'mothership' is the kind that's completely unreasonable?" Smoke Mirror asked curiously.

“No, quite the opposite, the mothership is very reasonable. You could say it’s quite honest.” Zeus paused. “And that’s precisely the biggest problem.”

"Alright, alright, if that's the case, then I understand." Smoke Mirror dropped his joking demeanor, toying with the pistol between his fingers, his tone becoming more reliable than ever before. "Anyway, it's all right now. Our warrior from America has told me that she'll be waiting for your 'mothership' on the outer edge of the solar system."

"........."

The smoke mirror's brief words not only shocked Zeus.

Even Odin, Vishnu, Shiva, and all the other chief gods of the pantheon wore expressions of disbelief.

After all, Zeus's deep concern about the arrival of the mothership suggests that it is at least a star-level enemy of equal strength.

In other words, American mythology possesses stellar-level power? Seriously?! How come nobody knew you were hiding this?!

Perhaps sensing the complex looks in the gods' eyes, Smoke Mirror coughed twice:

"Regardless, her ability to hunt large prey is undeniable. We're all from outer space, why would we lie to you?"

After a second or two,

Zeus finally nodded slowly.

He then straightened up.

"...We agree. We agree to hand over the technology to Typhon for manufacturing."

“Actually, there’s no need to hand it over to Typhon.” Odin smiled, raising a finger and pointing towards Eri Se’s location. “That little girl. As one of the pinnacles of alchemical theology, with our assistance and the reverse analysis from that Typhon… that’s enough.”

"Eh?"

When Eri finally let out that surprised exclamation.

When all the supreme gods present, from different mythologies, turned their gazes toward her.

At this moment, Utsumi Eri Se truly "understood" the "Age of Gods".

The gods knew long ago that they would eventually disappear.

Therefore, many gods were not prepared for such an era.

There are also many gods who have been resisting.
