66 the end of hatred




 The sound of shattering glass echoed in place.
 But perhaps Craig wasn't surprised because he had somehow expected it.

 There was a feeling of such certainty that he couldn't possibly be undisturbed--and

...... Well, I didn't expect it to be you - you're a piece of work.

 As I turned my gaze with the words, I saw the figure by the entrance.

 I'm sure you'll find that the figure is unmistakable as it slowly lowers its left hand that is thrust forward.
 It is the one that you should have banished by calling the abomination that shared your blood a defective .......

I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about it by visiting our website.

 I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make it work.
 You're going to be able to see it in your mind's eye, and you're going to be able to remember what it was like in the past, and you're going to let out a sigh of relief.

 It's really an abominable existence.

If you feel that way, then you need to stay out of my way. If you leave now, I'll let you go. You are not worthy of inclusion (・・・・).
The first thing you need to do is to make sure that you have the right information. It's really a good idea to be able to have a good time with your friends and family.
...... ignores the mercy that people have given you. You're just a loser after all. I don't mind, though.

 It's just going to take a little extra time anyway.

 It doesn't matter what you just did, given the circumstances, it was a piece of shit there.
 It doesn't matter what that power is or how you got it.

 Everything is meaningless in front of this newly acquired power.

How you got here and how you got here ...... is also irrelevant. The only thing I have to say to you is: You're a distraction. --You're a pain in the ass, get out of here.

 --■■■■: ■■■■. ■■■■.

 The moment he waved his right arm, an overflowing darkness loomed over it and swallowed its form.
 I sniffed at it as it disappeared from my sight with stunned ease, and removed my gaze.

 I felt nothing more than I thought I would.
 Maybe I should have just done what Brett had said.

 But as it turned out, it's the same thing.
 Now it's just a matter of when (・・・・・) and when (・・・・・・・) we'll get rid of Brett (・・・・・), but--

Well, now that you know you can always do it, it doesn't matter. I still have some use for it. We can kill it when we've used it up.
...... Wow, that's some outlier stuff you say. I don't want to think of myself as having half of her blood in my body. Kids don't get to choose their parents.
"--What?

 At the voice, turned back with alacrity.

 But the darkness is still there.
 It was Craig's very vendetta against God and the world.
 Whoever or whatever it was, after taking a direct hit from it.

"I'm supposed to be officially a non-existent parent now, but that doesn't erase the fact that I'm not. It's really--it's really annoying.

 As he said it, the sound of shattering glass echoed again.

 The darkness shattered, and the figure that emerged from it was without a scratch.
 The familiar figure with the sword in his right arm was still staring straight at you.

It's not just a matter of time before you'll be able to get your hands on a new one. It's a good thing that you're able to get a good look at your own personal history.
You know what I mean? You haven't forgotten who called me a bastard in the first place, have you?
"e ......

 The next thing you know, half-reflexively, Craig was stepping back.
 I felt as if I was being pushed by invisible pressure ...... but I bit my lip and shook off such images.

 That was just my imagination.
 I must have just been upset by something unexpected.

 Yes, Craig easily defeated not only Edward, but a brave man as well.
 There's no way you're going to be scared of this failure now.

 It may be a bit foolish, but it's still a failure.
 I couldn't let that thing get in my way now.

...... That's right, you're a loser. ...... You're a loser and you need to stay out of my way. ......!
I mean, don't they have the right to interfere? In a way, it's the kind of thing that concerns a country that has been good to me: ...... and most importantly, there are some people here that I can't just leave alone.
...... bullshit, don't bother with ......!

 --■■■■: ■■■■ and ■.

 . and shouted and waved his arms, tapping into the overflowing darkness.
 It is of such quantity and quality that it is incomparable to the previous one - but this time, it shatters without even swallowing its form.

 The moment the sword was wielded, it vanished without a trace.

You'll be able to find out what you're looking for when you see it. That sword is more than a holy sword: ......!
"I'm sure Noel would be happy to hear that. ...... Unfortunately, this is just a sword, okay? Well, it's top-notch, though.

 So, are you going to tell me what makes you special?
 No, that's not--

Yeah, yeah. I'm afraid I'm going to miss saying this, but there's one thing I wanted to say to you.
"What I want to say," says ......?

 Does that mean, a grudge?

 But it's a trivial thing.


 It's true that it was a bad idea.

 No, ...... is still the same.
 I'll prove it to you soon.

 So whatever you say, it's just noise.

Hmm, I think you've misunderstood what I'm saying ...... but that's okay. I'll tell you what, I actually listened to what you said earlier, too.
Earlier, the story ......? What the hell are you--
It was interesting to see how the content of the talks differed slightly depending on who you were talking to, but that's beside the point. I'm talking about your mother's gift - there's nothing in the Holy Grail's effect to share your life with her.
"............ what?

 What the hell is this guy talking about?

 Apparently, you've been hearing about this for a long time--

By the way, I actually "saw" it, so how can you be sure? Well, it was true that there was a hidden effect. But it was only a small wish for the child to be born, and all she wanted was for the child to grow up healthy. So the gift had nothing to do with your mother's death. --Well, you knew that (・・・・).
".................. Yeah, that's right (・・・・・)

 Craig nodded honestly at the words.
 Yes, Craig knew that what he had told Edward was a lie.

 After all, it was from the devil that he had heard the story.
 The devil couldn't possibly be telling the truth.

 And I'd been watching it die over and over again.
 How could he not see that it wasn't the gift's fault?

 But that didn't matter to Craig.
 What matters to Craig is that he kept watching it die and that he couldn't help it in any way he could.
 Because those were the only two things that mattered to Craig.

 It was enough for Craig to despair.
 It was enough to kindle the flames of hatred.

 And there was certainly some truth in the demon's story.
 And there was certainly some truth in the demon's story.

 Then it was enough.
 If he could take revenge on the gods, then it was good.

 Even if he couldn't fulfill it directly with his own hands.
 Even if it was just a misguided resentment.

 If it was only to benefit the demons, it didn't matter.

"Yes, I'd be willing to do anything to take this hatred out on the people I hate ...... if it meant I could destroy you hateful people ......!

 --■■■■: ■■■■: ■■■■ and ■■■.

 . slamming in more overflowing darkness, but just as instantly shattered as before .
 It's as if this hatred is said to be meaningless - and it is.

"You've got to be kidding me, you worthless piece of shit ......!
The first thing you need to do is to make sure that you have the right information. --I'm not going to be able to get away with it.
"Don't talk about him, you piece of shit. ......!

 --■■■■: ■■■■: ■■■■ and ■■■■.

 A moment later, the darkness that had been flooding from both arms covered Craig's entire body.
 It's as if Craig is being eaten by the darkness ...... but the power that's swelled up is nowhere near as great as it was before.

 An all-around feeling of power surged forth.
 With this much power, you could even go straight to killing gods.

 It's just that instead I felt myself becoming diluted, but I didn't care about .......
 That's right, as I said before.
 I will use any means necessary.

 I wouldn't spare myself if I could have this revenge.

It's not just a matter of time before you get to the point where you're not going to be able to get your hands on it. At the very least, they should be aware of the magnitude of what they have done.

 The words and the vision opened at the same time.
 The sense of omnipotence that had existed at the time had dissipated, and the figure of it in the armed stance was right beside me.

 You will be able to get a better idea of what to expect.

You can't ...... you can't ......!

 I reflexively reached out my hand ...... but it didn't grab anything.
 I'm sure you'll be able to find a great deal more to say about it.

 I'm sure you'll be able to find the best way to make your life easier for you.
