446. The god of time (3)
In an instant, silence enveloped the sacred realm < model garden >.
The ‘tower’, where the fragments of ‘divine’ and ‘soul’ created by the god of creation were still rotating fiercely, but they were different from before.
All three ancient deities showed quite a bit of bewilderment, such as drowsiness or sweating.
‘I can’t help but be shaken by what I said.’
At that, I narrowed my eyes and put a small smile on my lips.
‘It’s not just the Dark God, the Demon God, and the Dragon God, but also the ancient gods like the God of Time and the God of Light.
In fact, the God of Creation, the God of Law, and the God of Miracles are those whose conceptual divinity itself is not specialized in direct combat.
‘It’s not difficult to predict that something annoying will happen to that side, no matter which side I join.’
As this side just said, they’ll be in trouble if I stick to the Dark Gods on the Northern Front, or the Demons on the Eastern Front, or the Time Gods on the Southern Front.
‘The three ancient deities, the Dark God, the Demon God, and the Dragon God, are the lords of the universe, so they are naturally tough opponents, and the God of Time and the God of Light are also strong men that cannot be ignored.’
Only...
‘Well, practically, no matter how that side turns out, it’s impossible for me to go to any one ancient deity and be on the same side.’
It was a bluff.
In fact, I couldn’t be on the same side with anyone, be it the Dark God, the Demon God, or the Dragon God.
According to the story the God of Proof told me earlier, the God of Time seems to have noticed that not only about me, but also this world and himself were merely reproduced by the Tower of Trials.
‘Like the god of time, I don’t know what the ancient gods will do to me after realizing that all of this is just an illusion created by the Tower of Trials.’
It is unknown what kind of crises they will face if they approach the gods of darkness, demons, and dragons as well as the gods of time and light.
“...”
But I was sure.
‘There’s no way he’ll find out that everything I said was just a bluff.’
Even if all of the words this side said are just bluffing made up on the spot, it is not different from the truth in their eyes.
“The God of Creation stares at you silently.”
[ .... ]
In fact, not only the God of Creation, but also the God of Law and the God of Miracles standing in the back, no one could say a word and remained silent.
‘In fact, if you don’t know that all of this is just a fake that’s close to the real thing reproduced by the Tower of Trials, you’ll have no choice but to react like that.’
At that, I gazed at the three ancient deities with cold eyes in my eyes.
The difference in initiative created by each other’s information superiority cannot be overturned immediately, no matter what method is used.
To the three ancient deities, the statement that they would stick to whoever they were, whether it be the Dark God, the Demon God, or the Dragon God, seemed like a fact, not a bluff.
Goo—.
In an instant, the fragments of ‘divine’ and ‘soul’ swirling around the unknown ‘tower’ were scattered.
“The god of creation glares at you with angry eyes and gnashing of teeth.”
[ ...I’ll accept that offer. I’ll do whatever you want. Are you done now? ]
There is no sign of fighting.
Even if this side can’t see through the bluffing they made up, I thought that the number of cases in which they chose to fight could not be ruled out... The
God of Creation, and the God of Law and the God of Miracles standing behind it, fought against me perfectly. He didn’t seem confident of winning.
「The god of creation takes a slow, deep breath and calms down the feelings of anger.」
[...victory reward. Whatever it was, he promised to create anything he wished for. Not only will you pay for it here in advance, but I’ll create not one, but two. ]
was a success.
[Is that okay? Instead, we must make sure that the story of pushing the god of time to the brink of death will not come out anymore. ]
The god of creation said, scattering cold lifeblood all over the grass as if it were difficult to calm down his anger.
[You know that the proposal itself is close to blackmail, right? I’m just saying this just in case, but if you break your promise to me, I’ll find out somehow and make you pay for it. ]
[ ...okay. I have no intention of entering into a verbal contract with an ancient god like you, who I don’t even know where he came from. I was just saying that it was better not to think about breaking the bindings of the contract made with the holy relic. ]
Not to mention, the God of Creation also created another item identical to the relic I saw before by activating the Divine < Creation >.
───!
She handed me the ‘Sacred Contract (S-)’ she created in exchange for the pure white divine light and said,
[I thought that a crazy being like you might do something crazy to break the contractual binding of the relic. ]
“...well. It is unwise to forcibly break a contract made with a holy relic in a state of mutual agreement. I don’t know what penalty will come. Even if it’s guys like you, it’s no different.”
It was a lie.
Even if you violate the contract of the holy relic ‘Sacred Contract (S-)’, it is unlikely that there will be such a painful penalty.
I don’t know about general ancient gods such as the God of Creation, the God of Law, or the God of Miracles, but this side gained a lot of power to run the Ark while climbing the Tower of Trials.
‘It’s highly likely that the transcendental myth of < absolute immutability > will be used to eliminate the coercion of the contract, so it wouldn’t be bad to do what he said.’
But I had no intention of doing so.
‘Well, I can’t do that, but I mean.’
Isn’t it?
‘As long as the God of Time noticed the Tower of Trials and me, leaving it as it is will only lead to aggravation of the situation.’
The god of time was the one who noticed that the war itself was just a record of the past, and even though it looked close to the real thing, it was essentially a fake.
‘So...’
In fact, the God of Creation, the God of Law, and the God of Miracles will give you victory rewards, and now there was no reason to reject their offer and act as you please.
‘Exclude.’
and.
「...」
「Accepted.」
「Due to the exclusive effect of the Sacred Contract (S-), a contract has been concluded under mutual agreement with the designated target.」
Accordingly, the “Sacred Contract (S-)” Similar to the last time, the moment when a contract with strong compulsion was concluded under mutual agreement.
[ ...whatever it is, if you want something deep in your heart, you’ll get it soon. ]
I felt my heart pounding, and with a deep smile on my lips, I reached out to the god of creation and grabbed it.
Kwaaaak-.
“The divinity < Creation > is activated and creates something new in exchange for divinity, faith, and tales.
”
Coo-goo-goo-goo-!
In the blink of an eye, the divinity < Creation > emits a pure white halo of light, and the result was an overwhelming miracle that I wonder if it would be the only one in the entire universe.
───!
It was simple.
An item that can obtain the Tower of Trials, which is practically a transcendental structure, and even the concept of divinity of the three ancient gods called the rulers of the universe.
It is a power that can only be said to be something obtained purely through miracles and miracles, which may be obtained again even if you climb the Tower of Trials to the final floor.
「Ancient Book of Divinity Replica」
「Grade: EX」
「An ancient book containing a very small amount of ‘Reappearance’, one of the powers of the Tower of Trials.
」 It is possible.”
「※However, after acquiring one of the divinities by cloning, the item itself disappears.」
Tome of Divine Replication (EX).
“...”
It appeared in front of my eyes again.
