“It certainly looks like it. I guess I was taking thee too lightly.”
disappears leaving behind a perfectly healthy and intact Aivis.
“However, I who received the power of Eugo Ra Raviaz am now invulnerable. I cannot be hurt.”
Eugo Ra Raviaz is the god of time and can freely return a body’s time with no penalties. It doesn’t stop a bodies time as that would be unsuitable but if you ever get hurt you can just go back to before it happened.
It’s an eternally invulnerable existence and Aivis who now shares that power also benefits from that power.
Taking on Eugo Ra Raviaz means I only have one aim.
“I already know what the aim of thou will be.”
Aivis raises the Time Gods Scythe.
My cannot manipulate the time of Eugo Ra Raviaz’s main body but by using its own scythe against it I can.
By using the Time Gods Scythe I can make the immortal time gods time finite.
“It’s regrettable but I can’t just let you do as you please.”
Aivis turned the scythe on himself and stabbed himself in the stomach.
“Magic Tool Fusion .”
A three-dimensional magic formation covers Aivis’ entire body.
As it settles his skeleton shines a silvery white and sharp blades appear on both arms.
He’s fused with the Time Gods Scythe.
“Well, what will you do now my weak point has disappeared?”
There is a time limit to normal fusion magic but as long as Eugo Ra Raviaz is involved it doesn’t matter.
I can no longer beat Aivis using the Time Gods Scythe.
Also, due to fusing with the scythe his magic power has swelled more than tenfold.
“Also, thy own weak point is in full view.”
Aivis waves both his arms which have assimilated with the scythe as if he’s trying to cut both the sky and the ground.
Should I make a barrier against the huge slashes coming my way?
I develop an anti-magic field filled with all my power.
Fiery sparks like bees are scattered around as his magic and my anti-magic clash.
His aim is Misha and Sasha.
“Fumu. How strange. Are you trying to destroy the important vessels for the founder’s reincarnation? Can you easily make more? Or-“
Aivis shows no reaction at my words and puts more power into his arms.
“Is breaking the container in which you put so much effort nothing compared to killing me?”
“You don’t have the luxury to be able to talk anymore. The situation has already been reversed.”
With a snapping sound, the first layer of my anti-magic barrier is broken.
“Very Impressive. Thou art using the class’ characteristic of which means thy magic power should have decreased by at least 30%. Though art also supplying magic power to as well as the 2 people using it and all the while controlling it. Despite all this, thou endured my blow suffused with a gods power.”
Another sound echoed out and my second layer shattered.
“….Arnos…..!!”
“………………”
Misha and Sasha watch me with worried eyes.
“How kind. Is the past not yet changed? Although you have the help of skilled people origin magic is difficult to control. Just give up and throw away your burden.”
As Aivis is talking the sources of Misha and Sasha which are travelling back in time by 15 years are still on their way.
One reason the magic still hasn’t completed is that those 2 still don’t completely believe that I’m the founder.
No matter how much they think they believe if it’s not from the bottom of their hearts the origin magic will not complete.
“Not that it matters. The result will still be the same even if you don’t give up.”
A louder sound rang out as my third layer was destroyed.
I’ve only got one layer left.
“It’s fine already Arnos!! Were done. Even if it’s you……..!”
“Escape.”
Misha and Sasha both appeal to me.
“Fumu. Yare yare. That’s the reason. You seem to think there’s a chance that I will lose so you don’t believe that I’m the founder.”
“Why are you saying such a thing in this situation……?”
“Don’t worry about it. I’ll buy you the time you need to let the origin magic complete.”
The loudest sound yet rings out and my last barrier is broken.
“It was a good bluff at the end there, however, this is the end.”
Aivis raises both his arms up high.
I immediately set up anti-magic on Sasha and Misha again.
“You protected those two people right up to the end Arnos Voldigod.”
The voice of Aivis that had been far away was suddenly by my ear.
Accelerating his own time Aivis approached me in almost .1 of a second and stuck his right arm into my abdomen.
“Thou hast been negligent with thy own anti-magic.”
Using the Time Gods Scythe embedded in his body he makes my body’s time go out of control.
“I will drink all thy time and make thee disappear.”
Silver light surrounds me and time accelerates. 1 billion years——-10 billion years——-. Eternity piled up in an instant. Even the body of a demon king cannot survive forever. One day I will die and disappear.
The light splits open and the body subjected to eternal time became extinct.
“Fu……..fufufufu, fuhahahaha!! How’s that? Did you realise it, stupid founder? Fate cannot be changed. When I became immortal, no, 2000 years ago when you fled from battle it was decided that this is what would happen on this day!!”
Fumu. I see. Have I finally heard the truth?
“I don’t know why you can remember since your past has been deleted but you seem to remember me somehow or another Aivis.”
From behind, I put my hand on his shoulder.
Aivis seems to be in a state that says he cannot believe it as he slowly turns around.
“….Ho…….w…….? You certainly died……….”
Aivis was born right at the end of the war. Despite being a mazoku from the age of myths he’s never seen a true magic battle.
“Did you think I’d die from just being killed?”
Aivis uses his demon eyes but there’s no trick. I was certainly killed earlier.
“Don’t be so surprised. I just used Resurrection .”
“…..Only your origin remained……and you still used magic…..!?”
Even if the body is ruined the origin is also the source of magic power and it remains there. Those who have mastered magic can use it even if only their origin remains. That’s why it’s possible to resurrect even from there. If you’re dead for less than 3 seconds you can revive yourself.
“But……!!”
Aivis teleports 10 meters behind me.
A magic circle forms at his feet and a world of silver white spreads out from there.
It’s a grand magic that stops the time of all things.
A silvery-white barrier extends spherically. If you step foot inside it everything stops, not temporarily but forever.
“Fumu. As expected, this is mythical magic.”
Into the world of stopped time I step forward slowly.
“Wha………..”
“You’ve only stopped my time. Did you think you’d stopped my ability to walk as well?”
“Impossible……!! Why haven’t you stopped!? Why!?”
Aivis desperately puts out more power but its useless.
float on my pupils. Everything I can see as well as magic is destroyed. are the ultimate anti-magic.
“…….What’s with this magic power…..? Using which drinks magic and still supporting those 2 dead weights? How can you still surpass me who’s obtained the power of a god…..!? Impossible. How can such a thing…..!?”
“Did you forget where this is Aivis?”
I walk straight up to him.
“I will teach you what it means to challenge the demon king in his own castle.”
Black particles of light begin to fill the space. They soon increase to an uncountable number and fill the room.
Many magical characters appear on the walls, floor and ceiling all crammed together.
The true demon kings castle appears. The strongest magical tool that Arnos Voldigod owns.
A huge three-dimensional magic formation——-
