The sky, the ground, and the air are turning white under the influence of the infernal world (Cocytus).
　Divine magic transforms the world itself.
　No, the world itself is an overstatement.
　The area of effect of this spell is the entire land.

(This is at most a semi(-)divine(-)class(-)......)

　No matter how much I borrowed the divine power of the Goddess of Fate, I, a mere human being, could not reproduce a complete 'divine miracle'.

　The human race is not on par with the divine race.
　There is an eternal disparity that cannot be reached.

　Still... it's powerful enough to defeat the Demon Lord.

Anna, can you move?
"...... I think I can fight, Makoto-san.
　I asked her, and she replied with a firm but painful reply.

　You're a brave man of light.
　It's not a trick like mine, but a genuine quasi-god class.
　Your body has already responded.

　In comparison, the demon kings, with the exception of Ashtaroth, should be unable to move due to the influence of the magic I cast, Cocytus.
　I can't...



I feel like crap.



　The owner of the languid voice was Erinyes, the Demon Lord of the Fallen.
　The black wings fluttered as he looked down at us, his face regaining its composure.

"Elly, the Fallen Demon Lord, is originally the chief angel of the Heavenly Realm. He's resistant to the magic of the Holy God Tribe. Be careful.
"I see. ......
　I agree with Master Ila's words.
　It's tricky.


　It's not just Ashtaroth, but also Erinyes, the King of the Fallen.
　Can we do it? ......?
　That's when it happened.


I'm not sure if this is the voice ...... of the goddess apprentice Ila?　I'm not sure what you're doing, but if you're interfering on earth without permission, your scary sister will scold you.
　Erinyes, the Demon Lord, interrupted the conversation between me and Ila.
　What? You know each other?

What?　Who's your apprentice?　I am the Goddess of Fate!
"Ila?　Of all the places to work, you're the one who joined the fate attribute?　Are you okay?　Are you doing okay?
Oh, shut up!　I'm good!　I'm a good girl!
You've been making a lot of mistakes.
That was a fluke!
Ila, the apprentice goddess and the one with the most death threats, is on .......
It's time for you to shut your mouth. I'm going to throw you into Tartarus.
Oh no, that cute Ila-chan has turned into a scary goddess.

　The serious atmosphere dissipates.
　In the back of the room, Anna is puzzled.

"Oh, um, do you two know each other?
"It seems so.
　The Goddess and the Demon Lord are old acquaintances.
　It's the end of the world.

"When I was the chief angel in the heavens, I also trained apprentice goddesses. I also took care of Ila. Ila is the goddess of fate?
"Shut up, you fallen angel!　Don't be ashamed to be a demon king!
It's pretty fun, right?　There are no quotas, and you can just mope around all day.
　I didn't know there were quotas in the heavens.
　I can't dream.

Ila, you're the one who has to take care of everything and lose sleep, right?
That's right. I'm worried that you're working too hard, Master Ila.
"Makoto Takatsuki!　Don't say anything you shouldn't!
　I was supposed to be careful, but I got pissed off.
　It's unreasonable.

You should fall to earth too, Ila.　It'll be fun.
Enough!　Makoto Takatsuki!　Crush those demon lords!
　I'm not sure if she realized that she couldn't win with her mouth, but Ila gave the order to attack. 　　

　But I've got my hands full with controlling the divine water magic, Cocytus.

　The only way is for me to stop them, and for Anna to attack.



　As Anna and I looked at each other and pondered what to do.




"How long are you wasting your time talking?



　An intimidating voice came down from the sky.
　The next thing I know, there's a huge black shadow staring down at us.

　Ashtaroth, King of the Old Dragons.
　The mightiest of the old dragons with the blood of the dragon gods in his veins.
　As a matter of course, he is active in the World of Hell (Cocytus).

My friend, after the Immortal King (Bifrons), the Giant King (Goliath) has also been defeated. ......
　The voice of the king of the old dragons had an echo of sorrow for his friends.
　I've heard that demon kings are not that close to each other.

"Don't think you'll die easy. "Don't think you'll die easy, brave men.
"Ah!
　I've heard that the Demon Lords are not very close to each other.

"Master Ashtaroth, do you really want to go head-to-head with a messenger from the infernal world?　
　The King of the Fallen sits on the shoulder of the King of the Old Dragons.

You're telling me not to fight?
　I'm sure you've heard of it.

I'm not sure what to make of this. And he's using it at the cost of his life. It's safer to draw back and then fight.
"How about ......?
　At Elynius' words, Ashtaroth looked down at me.

　It's a good thing I'm a demon king.
　I'm not sure what to say.
　I can only use one divine magic.
　That's why I must succeed.

You think I'm gonna let you go?
　My hell world (Cocytus) has already been activated and Ashtaroth and Erinyes are within its range.
　This magic is a ward, a cage.
　No one can enter or leave from the outside or the inside.
　And the jailer of the infernal world (Cocytus) is a magician.

　Anyone who is within the range of the magic is deprived of their freedom, their power is blocked, and they cannot resist the jailer.
　And the most horrible thing is that those who are in the hell world (cocytos) will continue to suffer.
　This is because the magic is designed to punish sinners.

　Unfortunately, or fortunately, I'm too busy activating it to do anything about "inflicting suffering".
　But I'm sure it's working.

　The king of demons, the king of bugs, and the king of beasts can't even open their mouths.
　Some are trembling with fear, some are falling down, and some are standing there in a daze.
　Even the Demon Lord is like this.

　This is the magic of ...... the goddess of water (Eir), isn't it?　
　What a scary magic.
　What scary magic.

I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that.
"......, is that so?
　I can easily imagine the water goddess (Eir) smiling as she said that.

It's a good thing that the water goddess's magic ...... is nasty but not instantly deadly. However, just being trapped in this cage will take away your power. I'm about a quarter of what I used to be.
　A black figure gathers around Elinus, the only one with a relaxed demeanor.
　I'm not sure if it's dark magic or not.
　It's not a good idea to get caught by those black figures.

I'm only half as powerful as you.
　Kuro miasma gathered around Ashtaroth, the king of the old dragons.
　If he hadn't used his divine magic, he would have fallen under the miasma.
　This is half the power?

　I still have more magic power than the five Demon Lords I was fighting earlier.
　This is ...... too different a level.

　I wonder if there's anyone who can beat it properly?
　The only one who can is ....... 　


"Altena, Goddess of the Sun, ...... give me strength.


　I'm sure you'll be able to understand why.
　A light of love that seemed to push back the miasma of the old dragon king.
　But Anna's face was pale.

"Anna, you used the sacrifice technique, didn't you?
I'm imitating Makoto. ...... In any case, if we lose here, we're dead.
That's true.
　No doubt.
　Anna and I turned to face the two Demon Lords.

　I don't want to prolong the fight too much.
　I'm sure they do too.

"Master Ashtaroth, can you make the first move?
"Very well.
　Ashtaroth responded to the voice of Elinus, the King of the Fallen.
　What are you doing?　was not a question that came to mind.
　You will soon understand.

"......oooooooooooooo......
　With a low roar from the king of the old dragons, a huge amount of magic power (mana) converged in his mouth.



(Dragon Roar ......)





　The roar of the old dragon king.
　It won't be enough to wipe out a mountain.
　The only way to fight it is ......



　The sword of Michael the Flaming Angel.



　A white flame surrounds Anna.
　And the blade glows in seven colors.
　I'm not sure what to make of it.

"Makoto, behind me.
I understand.
　I'll keep my divine magic intact and get behind Anna.
　The two teams use their most powerful moves.


　The earth shakes.
　The ground splits open and a storm blows. 　
　A scene like the end of the world unfolds.

　
　The miasma gathering around the king of the old dragons is like a black sun.

　The miasma surrounding the king of the old dragons is like a black sun, while the miasma surrounding Anna, the hero of light, is like a white sun.

　Who will win? .......

(You'll win: ......)
　The power of the savior, the hero of light, is absolute.
　I'm sure you're not the only one.

............ Oh, of course.
　You're shaking in your voice.
　I'm not sure if I'm actually on the edge.

(Noah, Goddess of Water, Goddess of Fate, ...... please help me)
　I had nothing to do but pray.

　I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but it's a good idea.
　Anna, the hero of light, swung the Sword of Michael the Fiery.
　At that time...




　Everyone, please take care of this situation.




　An out-of-place calm voice sounded.
　The black miasma of the demon king and the white light of the hero of light faded away.

"......
......
　The tense atmosphere that had been there just a moment ago faded away.


　It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your time with your family.
　Only Elinus, the King of the Fallen, had a pained expression on his face.

Anna.
"......Makoto-san, ......, what am I?
　For a moment, Anna's face was sleepy, but then she flashed back to seriousness.

　The expression on her face.
　No way. .......
　I've seen it before.
　But it can't be.

　Even if it's only for a moment, Anna has been bewitched.

　The hero of light can't accept any curse.
　He has a perfect "state abnormality invulnerability" constitution.
　Why is that? .......

　I'll look for the voice I heard earlier.
　I found him immediately.

　I heard the sound of wings flapping and a huge creature landed between us and the Demon Lord.
　At first glance it looked like a dragon, but it was a hideous creature with three mouths, five arms, seven wings, and countless eyes covering its body.

"That dragon is ......
"It's an abominable dragon, isn't it?
　I answered Anna's question shortly.

　The blasphemous looking abomination is a creature created by the Great Demon King.
　If it's a demon continent, it's no wonder it showed up.
　What's more curious is the figure riding on top of the dragon.

　Long, lustrous black hair.
　Her proportions are superb, even through her black dress. 　
　And a beautiful face that captivates all who see it.

　She looked very much like my guardian knight a thousand years later, the Moon Priestess (Furiae).

　Similar, but different.
　This is the second time I've seen her.
　I know her name.

"Long time no see, my hero.

　The one smiling elegantly on the abominable dragon was Queen Neveah of the Moon Country (Rafiloig).
