Okay, the law has changed, but that doesn't matter. My victory is all inevitable.

　Honestly, it's commendable that Imperial Star Fallen Night (Mikaboshi Ochiya) was able to see that this result was due to a law altering ability.
　The law altering cheat used by Masquerade is such a rare ability.
　There must be a very good back-up behind it.
　And he also has a near-perfect cheat combo.

　But that's why it's not applicable.

　The fact that the identity of his ability is unknown, just like the future walking cheat was, is a threat in itself.
　On the other hand, if his hand is completely visible, no matter how powerful and complete his abilities are, he'll be reduced to a small fry in front of me.

　The threat level of the Imperial Star cannot be compared to Masquerade, not to mention the otherworldly guardians Pythen and Adi.
　It may be difficult, but depending on how you do it, even Misaki could win.
　Teisei Fallen Night is the strongest weakling who depends on the typical cheat ability........that's how I see it.

''Teixeira, it's time we both rolled the dice. I have a feeling you and I will be next.

　Alright.
　It's time for the God's Play (party) to come to a close.
　Dance to your heart's content, believing in your own absolute victory on the never-before-seen stage.
　The end of your battle with me will signal the end of the curtain on this trivial farce, you know.

'Humph ... a cheap provocation.

　The emperor star shook the dice.
　His name was the Emperor Star (Mikaboshi).

''Mmm........''
I'm with you.

　I'm the one who made the stakes.

"The manipulative fate system?　Or is it the probability fluctuation system...?
I don't know.

　I cower my shoulders at the emperor star who is reading deeply.

''It's a time manipulation system........''
Shut up for your own good, Misaki.

　I'm not done playing it yet.
　And don't leak information, even if you're whispering.
　Teixeira didn't seem to hear it.

　Anyway, I went up on stage.
　However, Teisei didn't move from his fixed position, and his gaze was fixed on the Sai Koro that I waved.
　His eyes were wide open, as if he had seen something unbelievable.

"....Your name is Sakahagi?
Yeah, I'm Ryoji Gyakushige, an otherworldly tripper who was just passing by. Nice to meet you.

　He tried to return the greeting in a friendly manner, but Teixeira's face became more and more twisted.

''I see........you're that omega-class disaster.......''
'What?　You, by any chance, of the Anse-Baal army--
'Exactly. Let me introduce myself once again. I'm the school's student council president, Mikaboshi Ochiya. Ryouji Sakagagi......I will avenge you all.
...huh?

　So you're a young man with a future with a vengeance?
　You don't seem to be too angry for that.
　I don't know what a school is, but judging by the title of student council president, it's probably an organization that gathers cheat abilities that have been 'class transferred'.
　I don't remember encountering such people at all, but did they get caught up in my attack?

"I don't mind if we kill each other in the form of a match, right?

　Teixeira finally comes up to the stage to check it out.
　It doesn't look like he's giving in to the anger of having his friends killed, after all.
　Rather, he seems to have shed my provocation and become completely calm.

''Well........''

　I put my finger to my chin and ponder it deliberately.

　To put it bluntly, I have a feeling that it's still fine.
　Since a grudge has already been established, even if you kill at least one more person here, it's the same thing.

　However, there are some things that are bothering me.
　To tell the truth, just before I used the Techo, right before I finished writing Teisei's name, an invisible instant death effect from the "Instant Death Cheat" flew at me.

　The "Instant Death Cheat", as its name suggests, is an ability to make the target die instantly.
　The targets are not only living creatures, but also a wide range of materials and concepts, and depending on the ability holder's idea, they can even mimic the killing of time.

　The method of expression differs depending on the ability holder.
　Some give a simple instantaneous death effect with a curse.
　There is even the ability to fire a bullet that absolutely pierces the heart.
　There's a wide range of abilities, including the mid-second disease like the other world's guardian, Paisen, who emits a "fire that will absolutely kill the opponent" to instantly kill the opponent he hits.

　It's a powerful ability, no doubt about it.
　However, since it is no more than "granting death," it does not work on the undead. In order to make it work, you'll need a separate immortal kill cheat.
　Also, it won't work on opponents with instant death resistance. If you want to break through the resistance, you'll need a cheat to penetrate the resistance.
　Still, there are many weaknesses, such as being able to prevent it if you meet the specific evasion methods set out in the ability.

　The reason why I am using instant death magic, which should normally be weaker than the instant death cheat, is because its defense penetration performance is higher than that of the instant death cheat.
　That's why I'm using my instant death cheat by granting the Reaper Techo with a customized cheat. The effects are already known.

　In that sense, I consider it to be backward-compatible with the "Existence Erasure Cheat," which erases the opponent's entire existence, and the "Demise Cheat," which makes all beings meet their predetermined "end".
　The latter cheat is the only one of its kind in the entire universe, and even I don't have it.

　Anyway, the user of the Instant Death Cheat is Teixeira.
　I tried to eat him as usual, but it seems that his Immortal Killing Cheat couldn't break through my Immortal Cheat, so the instant death effect is no longer valid.
　Moreover, "Are you going to do it? I looked at my notebook and confirmed that Teisei himself was completely unaware of his own instant death cheat activation until just before he died.

　That's why I decided to shake him up a bit.

''About that... how about we just say, 'If we kill each other, we lose'?
'Whoever makes the other guy admit defeat wins, right?　Huh ... I refuse to do that. Because I want to kill you.

　Well, yes.
　An unkillable match shouldn't be more convenient for instant death cheat users.

'Well, you win if you can kill me. "So you win if you can kill me, but you lose if you give up killing me. So how about I lose if I kill you?
You lick it!

　He has been more blatantly angry than when he accused me of being the avenger of his friends.
　And then he glares at me with a geeky stare in my eyes.

(This guy........does he possibly know about my abilities?　No, the status is disguised I should look like just a regular person. (Well, it's not like they'll be able to deal with it if they find out.

　And I'm sure you're thinking idly.

'Oh well, I'll take the terms.'

　Oh, I'm on board after all.

Well I think I have it all figured out.

　So far, it looks like we've seen it beforehand.

Well, it's all the same to me anyway. Anyway, I suppose it's all in the spirit of making us suffer so that we don't have to kill her, but...

　You look like you're thinking.
　You're a really obvious guy.

　Okay, we've come to a decision.
　We've already decided we're going to help everyone in the party, and we're not going to kill this guy.
　Instead, I'm going to break his heart on a massive scale.
　I'm going to give him a taste of defeat on a level that will leave him with no excuse, and he will be incapacitated so that he can never use his powers again.

　And if that happens, rather than letting me know that instant death doesn't work on me--

So, we have a deal, then.
Then the game begins.

　At the same time as the messenger blew the whistle, I took out the holy silver gun from the item box and immediately fired it while doing a certain thing.
　The bullets bounced on the cobblestones of the stage.

''Humph ... are you trying to be a warning shot?''

　Teixeira ruffles his bangs in a spare attitude.

(To no avail. Even if it's a threat, it's nothing more than a willingness to make me obey in fear ... and harm!　Now ... no, that's not right. You haven't activated the instant death counter, have you?　

　And he's not even looking for any sign of it, he's just shooting somehow.
　He also fires a number of rounds in rapid succession.
　The bullets of the holy silver gun are unlimited. I don't care if I'm out of ammunition, I'll just keep firing.

(This guy, he didn't mean to use my abilities?!)

　Even to my connoisseur's eye, Teixeira's instant death cheat appeared to be a 'counter type'.
　Moreover, apparently it could kill the target right before the attack was made and nullify the attack itself.
　However, Teixeira hadn't noticed the activation of the instant death counter when he wrote his name in his notebook.
　In other words, this guy's ability--.

(But if you say you don't see it with your eyes, then I'll come around behind you and attack you directly!

　When he opened his eyes as Teixeira approached to launch a fighting attack, he saw Teixeira's astonished face.
　He turns around in Teixeira's direction and fires several shots, this time with his eyes open.
　After that, he continues to shoot bullets in the direction of Teixeira, who is trying to come around.

(This guy, from the way his pupils are opening, he's not looking at me!　I'm looking farther than that!　No it's still strange. You can't escape the instant death counter with a quibble about simply not being in sight. If you think it's good enough to accidentally hit me with a bullet, that's now unavoidable and intentional!　The instant death counter is triggered as soon as you read the desire!　My 'automatic win' is not that sweet!　(And yet... why!

　Think, think, think.
　Just follow my lead and you'll come to the right answer.

You will not get in my way.　　You know me!　How is that possible? How is that possible for a normal human being!　If a person is in sight, the brain usually processes it subconsciously. That's why humans don't bump into each other even in crowds. And if they're not conscious, then what ability is it that they use?
You look like you're wondering what kind of powers I'm using on you.
Huh?

　When I told him clearly, Teixeira was blatantly frightened.

''I'm not using any abilities. This is just a device. You can learn it with training.
It's my heart.
"I'm not reading minds. I'm just guessing that he's trying to predict what I'm going to say and do and how I'm going to react to it. If you play the same game over and over again, you'll get to know the boss's behavioral patterns, right?　It's the same.
Screw you. Reality is not the same as the game!

　You're right, but don't tell me that.
　Rather, it was a necessary skill to fight the strongest weaklings like you.
　Nevertheless it's clear that guesswork prayer shooting is not an efficient way to fight.
　It's time to move on.

"Let the lesson begin, student council president. I'll show you how Ryouji Sakagagi (me) has fought with guys like you.
