Chapter 4 Sage Zenovis

Yuuya disappeared due to a magic casted by a mysterious assailant the Evil cult.

Yuuya!

Yuti tried to rush to the position where Yuuya had been but was unable to do so.

Because.

Oh, ooohhh! At last at last, our God has been resurrected!

Where Yuuya was just a moment ago, there was another figure.

Where is this place?

It was a person clad in an ominous presence that was reminiscent of Avis, the king of Evil, who was supposed to have been defeated by Night and the others before.

Even standing there, Yuti, Night, and even Ciel, who had defeated Avis, were overwhelmed and unable to move properly.

Without paying attention to his surroundings, Evil appeared on the spot and looked down at his own body in wonder.

Hmm strange things happen. My body, which was injured by his attack, is somehow healed

That is because we have summoned you!

Hmm?

Then that Evil, which first noticed the existence of the Evil cult, quietly asked.

You said you summoned me. Why?

Y-yes! We are the Evil cult. We are Evil worshippers! But our God of this time has been destroyed by a certain person

What? In this time? What do you mean?

This world has advanced far more than the time when you were alive. A certain man destroyed our God in this time but by invoking the ultimate magic invented by the sage who had fought you, we succeeded in replacing him with you! Yes you, who fought that sage. You who is the most powerful Evil of all time!

You mean to say that you have replaced me with the one who destroyed the Evil of this time?

Yes! Now there will be no more obstacles in your way this time!

Hearing the words of the Evil cults founder, Evil shook his shoulders with a look of satisfaction.

I see, so thats how it is. kukuku hahahahahaha! This is brilliant! I never thought that the magic of the one who tried to destroy me would end up unleashing me into this world! Kuhahahaha!

The Evil continued to laugh, but there was one person left who calmly spun his words against such Evil.

Unfortunately, your days will not be long.

Hmm?

Ouma was silently outraged by the misuse of his friend, the sages magic, and the fact that Yuuya was made to disappear.

Seeing Ouma like this, Yuti and the others can finally feel relief.

Thats what they thought

What, look who it is the Genesis Dragon who was pathetically beaten up by the sage. I have no interest in a small fry like you. Get lost.

..

Surprisingly, the Evil that appeared did not push back against the pressure released by Ouma but rather countered it.

Astonished. N-no way, Ouma-san is

Yuti stares at the Evil that appears as if in disbelief. Then, Ouma himself quietly opened his mouth.

Its not particularly strange. The Evil of this era that Yuuya and the others defeated was far weaker. But this one is different. After all, even though he was defeated, he is still fighting against that sage.

Hahahahaha! You know exactly what youre talking about!

The Evil smiles at Oumas words.

And then.

Yes, I am the King of Evil Evil himself! [T/n: Yes, his name is Evil () in Katakana. It would be pretty odd to translate this from now on since his name is also Evil.]

A tremendous aura of Evil erupted from his body.

I couldnt understand the young mans words for a moment.

But

Ze-Zenovis, you say? Eh, Zenoviisss!?

Wait, that cannot be true!

The young man in front of me is that Sage-san!?

While the information poured in one after another at a rate that my brain couldnt process, the young man Zenovis-san nodded his head without changing color.

Yes. I am Zenovis.

..

I was no longer even able to speak.

Wasnt Zenovis-san supposed to have died a long time ago in the first place? But if he wasnt Sage-san, that couldnt explain how he had that [Omni-Sword] Anyway, a lot of guesses were going through my mind.

The only thing I can say is that the attack I saw just now was of the highest caliber I have ever seen. At any rate, the slash that was swung at random far exceeded the polished skills of Iris-san and Master Usagi.

And if he really is Sage-san, then it makes sense that Kuro was so frightened. In the first place, there was absolutely no way I could win.

I was puzzled by the unbelievable situation, but Zenovis-san raised his eyebrows a little.

Even so thats troubling.

Eh?

I was just in this place fighting the Evil king or something like that. But just as I was about to finish him off you appeared.

Oh

Having said that much, I once again recall how I suddenly came to this place.

If I think about it in an orderly fashion, I must have been transported to this place by the magic of Sage-san that the mysterious man used.

Moreover, looking at the situation, it seems that I was not just transported to a different place but was sent back in time far into the past.

And, judging from the words and actions of those men, they must have been the Evil cult that Orghis-sama had told me about the other day.

In other words, I was switched with the Evil of this era by that magic.

Oh no what in the world am I supposed to do?

While I held my head in complete confusion, Zenovis-san called out to me.

I need you to tell me your situation.

Eh? B-but its a lot of speculation

It doesnt matter.

As Zenovis-san said this, I took a moment to explain my current situation in my own way.

Please dont say that like Im a woman of leisure! I-its just that well how should I say it

What have you done?

Sensing something in the sudden change in Lanael-sans demeanor, Zenovis-san asked with a light furrow of his brow.

W-wait a minute! Why are you talking on the assumption that Ive done something wrong!

You could have done it.

What a disgusting trust! No, its not! Its not that I did anything, but it seems that um the power of that false god has flowed into this world.

What do you mean?

For the first time here, Zenovis-san turned a distinctly different color.

What are the observers doing? They call themselves gods, but cant they even do their jobs properly?

Ugh.

Well, thats okay. But if the power of the false god has flowed into this world, why am I supposed to help solve it there? If its an observers problem, deal with it yourself. Dont bring your problems into this world.

T-there is no other choice! Observers are always shorthanded! Thats why they invited Zenovis-sama to join A-anyway! Observers are busy dealing with the main body of the false god! So I havent even gotten into the matter of the power of the false god that has flowed into this world!

Lanael-san exclaimed in desperation.

Zenovis-san also let out a loud sigh, perhaps thinking that there was no point in talking anymore.

Hah so who did the power of the false god flow to, and who became the sentinels of the false god?

U-um thats

What? Come on, say it.

..the Genesis Dragon.

Maybe I should go and fight you, the observers, once and for all.

Gyahhhh! Im sorry, Im sorry, Im sorry!

Lanael-san apologizes desperately.

To be honest, I have no idea what the story is about Genesis Dragon, you mean, Ouma-san?

Well, surely there is Ouma-san in this period!

But he wouldnt know about me

I mean, observers are gods, right? Zenovis-san, who could normally say that hes going to pick a fight with them, is

As I think about this, Zenovis-san notices that I am the only one left behind and tells me about the situation again.

Well I said that the observers are beings from a higher dimension, but there is a fight going on in that higher dimension, just like ours. That opponent is the false god.

False god

Well, I only know it as knowledge; I have never seen the real thing. After all, it is essentially irrelevant to me. What happens in the upper dimension is resolved in the upper dimension. It should be so, but sometimes the observer cannot contain the false god, and the power of the false god flows into this world. And that power has a will, and when that power flows to those who seek power, they become the cusp of the false god. Yes, it becomes a sentinel but more than that, the Genesis Dragon

Um, is that the Genesis Dragon thats sleeping in the valley?

Hmm? Oh yeah. In Yuuyas time, yes. But it wouldnt be that guy. That guy takes pride in his power. Come to think of it, he was flaunting it the other day and was acting up, so I just beat him to quiet him down Hes not the kind of guy who would want to borrow someone elses strength to get stronger just because he lost to me.

It appears that Ouma-san is not the one who has become the sentinel of that imaginary god.

Zenovis-san is right, Ouma-san would probably refuse Gods offer to give him power

Hmm? Wait a minute? But then, that Genesis dragon is

U-um, I have one question: how many Genesis Dragons are there?

Two.

Eeeh?

I am appalled at the fact that I never expected that. I had spent a lot of time with Ouma-san, but I had never heard of such a story.

In fact, when Lexia-san and others told me about the Genesis Dragon, they only mentioned Ouma-san Could it be that he is still alive in that era, but we just dont know about him?

And you want me to take care of it?

Ugh B-because I cant possibly win against the Genesis Dragon with the power of a false god

Is that so?

I-Im an angel sent by an observer, after all! Even though I live in a higher dimension, Im not that strong!

H-huh

I hope you wont be relying on me for manpower as a result.

From what I hear now, if it were true, the observers would have to do something about the incident, but they themselves are stuck in a battle with the main body of the false god, and Lanael-san, an angel, alone is no match for them, so Zenovis-sans help is needed so it seems.

Zenovis-san looked stunned, but suddenly he seemed to have thought of something and opened his mouth.

Hmm it cant be helped. I wasnt eager to do it, but I can help you with that story.

Eh, really? Well, then, lets get on with.

But I have a condition.

C-condition?

As Lanael-san waited with bated breath to see what kind of conditions would pop up, Zenovis-san told her as if nothing was wrong.

Yeah. In exchange for helping you with this matter you will return Yuuya back to his original time.

Eh?

Hmm? That is I am sure the observers will allow me to use that much power if you help us

I didnt think they would make it conditional on me going back to my own time.

A-are you sure? Under those conditions, Zenovis-san wouldnt get anything out of it

What are you talking about? You do it.

Huh?

I couldnt believe my ears when I heard the words, but Zenovis-san continued without changing his expression at all.

Youre going to be dealing with the sentinels of a false god. With this, it stands to reason that you would accept the reward, right?

Eeeeehhhh? N-no, no, it is impossible! Because Im weak, you know?

Dont worry. Ill help you.

H-help?

I wonder. I have a very bad feeling about this!

Then, as if to say that my imagination was right, Zenovis-san smiled the biggest smile Ive seen since I met him today.

Well, lets get you trained right away, shall we?

N-nooooooo!

My screams echoed through the [Worlds Disposal Ground].
