　After Orgaud-sama had again separated into the five goddesses, Xana opened her mouth, looking a little surprised.

　I had the same imagination as well, but if you think about it, Fulga and Tulbaugh also have a strong spirit, so perhaps it's no wonder they have settled into that kind of atmosphere.

　Or rather, since Orgo-sama is the original, the expression "settling down" may not be quite right. ......

Well, whatever," he said, "we won. Anyway, we won. Now we just need to make that old man apologize for everything. ......?　Hey, Iguza!　The old man's not here!

　I jumped out of my body in surprise and said, "Oh, no!　I nodded and said, "Oh," to Ophir, who jumped out of the room with a startled look on his face.

I saw him using his mobility technique while we were talking earlier. He probably ran away somewhere.

No, you can't afford to be so relaxed!　I'm sure he'll think of something strange again, that old man!

　But I nodded quietly and said, "Don't worry.

Because he was headed to the "village of the demons".

...... persistent bastards.

　Ophir had said so, but it seemed that he had already admitted defeat and had no intention of fighting or even fleeing in the face of us who had undone Susanookamui.

　It was just that

"That body ....... You, apparently, do not have long to live."

Ah."

　As Shiva pointed out, Elysian's body is slowly fading away and she has little time left.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I tell Elysian, "I can help you, too.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I can help you. If you are willing to atone for your sins in the future, I am willing to help you.

Huh?　Are you serious?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What are you going to do?　You are a saint, you should be able to save more people.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

...... You want me to save all the humans?　You make me laugh. Do you think I would accept such a ridiculous proposal?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

No, I don't think you will.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Then why do you ask such a barbaric question?　Are you taking advantage of my defeat?

　Elysian smiled at me with a self-mocking smile, and I shook my head again and said, "No." "I just want to know why you think I'm so good at it.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I just wanted to know why you resented people so much. What did you want in the end by exterminating people and subhumans?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"......, what's that supposed to mean?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

"I'm going to do everything in my power to make sure there will never be another one like you again."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I see. I see. That's a very messiah-like, repulsive, and brilliant thing to say.

　After smiling wryly, Elysian suddenly looked up at the sky and said, "I see.

I'm just trying to make a threat to the dead," Elysian said. I just wanted to live quietly with the dead in a world where there was no threat.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In a world without dead people and without threats. ......

Is that your family?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yes. Yes, my wife and child, who were killed by you humans. How can I forgive you humans for feeding a kind-hearted, pregnant woman to demons because she had subhuman blood in her?　So I retaliated.

　Elysian looked around the decaying village and saw the result.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

The people who started it first, and when it came time for them to be attacked, they would take it out on the innocents with impunity. There will never be peace in a world where people like that rule. That's why we tried to eliminate them all and create our own utopia. That's all there is to it.

　Hearing Elysian's story, everyone was speechless.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I had heard a similar story before from a woman who worked as a gravedigger, but I guess she was talking about Elysium.

　At first, only humans were supposed to be targeted, but when they cooperated with us, even the same subspecies became unbelievable, and they tried to kill us all together.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It is a sad story.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

What you did is unforgivable. But I understand your feelings.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

...... What?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I have a wife who is pregnant. If she were to ...... not only her, but all the people I care about would be in the same situation. If it happened to someone I cared about, I'd probably kill them all without mercy.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Oh, you're the Messiah?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Yeah, I'm the messiah.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I nodded and continued.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I don't deny that you did it. I think you did a good job. But it's not the same as laying a hand on the rest of them, is it?　It's the same as what you call "laying hands on innocent people. You did the same thing to those you hated, didn't you?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Shut up!　I'm still ......."

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Elysian bit his lip in frustration.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sorry. Can I have a word with you?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I'm sorry.

　A woman appeared, refusing the invitation, and the eyes of everyone present were drawn to her.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　There she was, the tomb-keeper whom we had previously met in the tomb of the demons, and the "one-horned" demoness - Ms. Leuke.
