The world tree's will flowed into me. As if pushed out of my body by it, my will went out of my body.

　Is this what astral projection is like?

　I was able to see the face of what was my body for the first time.

　I see......... Sarion, a body that was originally made of the curse of an evil god, was born with the will of the World Tree in it?

　My body had the appearance of a familiar butler. However, it didn't seem to be that strong due to the World Tree's will being too big for the container.

　However, it was enough to repel demons or so without any problems, and once the Sylphs woke up, there would be no more problems.

　There's also Dylon with the High Kingdom.
　So, it's probably okay.


　My will is starting to disappear.

　And when my will is gone, it means I'm going to die.
　But I'm not afraid of death this time.

　The World Tree has promised to protect the elves and I know that Dylon can build Alheim.

　The High Kingdom should be handed over to me in the future, with Dyron renting it out to some brave men while his son, Cyrus, takes over its administration.

　I've done all I need to do.

　Now let's get out of here.
　I've got to punch the evil one in the face.


　Shut up.

　The curse of reincarnation has been broken.

　I've been able to die six times, properly.
　That's good.

　I was about to hit the evil god right before I stepped on the reincarnation curse that the evil god had set up.

　I came back at that moment.
　Because the evil god was right in front of me...


Goof!

　I accidentally punched the evil god in the face.

''Ah.''

　Not that one.
　Not that one. Without!

　The curse had caused my will to fly for a moment.
　So I didn't have any strength at all.

　The evil god is blown up and bent into the walls of the temple, but my anger isn't going to subside like this. Including the first incarnation, I've been killed by the Evil God a total of seven times.

　But with my current power, it's not even one time.


''You, you........ Do you have any idea what you've done?　You've put your hands on me here, and you've put your hands on God.

　The body of the evil god that had been buried in the wall disappeared and appeared in front of me.

　As expected of a god. After all, that level of damage is hardly worth it?

''Don't think you'll make it out alive!

　The evil god reaches out to me, to me.

　Before that hand could touch me, I walked away from the Evil God and returned to Tina and the others.

　These days, I was able to move as fast as the fastest divine beast, White, if I wore the Gale of Thunder's magic robe. An evil god's attack that was slower than Leo, the Beast King, let alone White, couldn't possibly hit me.


''Halt-sama, our purpose has been accomplished. S, well......... Do you want to run away?

　Tina speaks to me. I guess she thought she was satisfied because I hit the evil gods.

''Brother Hal. If you're going to run away, make sure he doesn't come after you........ Don't you want to beat him up a bit?

'I agree with Mr Akali. We should lean on the limbs and keep them immobile. Foolishly, the Evil One tried to get at the Master.

　Akari and Citry were going to kill it.
　Citry in particular was in trouble.

　She had called the evil god, the creator, 'Evil God-sama'. That's why she was calling out the Evil God and unleashing a killing spirit on the Evil God that could shake the temple.

　Of course, I have no intention of going back with this at all.
　I have no intention of handing over my vengeance to Akari or Sitri.

''Actually, I fell under his curse right before I struck the evil god,''

What?　What? Are you sure you're okay?

Yeah. I'm all right now.

Curses..... Brother Hal has a fixed status, right?

It was some kind of curse that only skipped over my intentions. I died six times.

　I mean, not all six times, but I was still scared to death.

"Six times?　........Master. As I thought, let's annihilate the evil god here.

'Citry, wait. That's what I'm supposed to do.

　I stop Citry from trying to jump on the evil gods.

　I'm glad you're angry for me, but it's my job to hit the Evil God.


　I walk towards the evil god while releasing the maximum amount of magic power, and start walking towards the evil god. I wear hundreds of times more magic power than I did when I approached the Evil God before the curse of reincarnation sent me into the past.

The three of you, hold on a second. I'm going to hit that guy one more time.

　The evil god was hit by Sitree's killing intent and was unable to move.

''Wha, what!　What the hell are you guys doing here?

You've been introduced, right?　But, well, I haven't seen you in a month, sensibly, so I'll introduce myself again.

　To prevent the evil gods from escaping, I'll use my super-dense magic power to seal the transition.

'I'm Halt. My name is Harto-Elnor. I was an otherworldly person named Saijo Haruto, but I was killed by the evil gods and reincarnated in this world.

　One step at a time, he slowly approached the evil god.

''If you include the six times I died from the reincarnation curse you set up, I was killed by you seven times. So──

Wait, wait!　What is that?　How can a human race wear such a magical power?

It's all because of your curse.

　You don't even have to explain the status-fixing curse to him, right?

'You're the reason I've been able to use so much magic.

　With the effect of the status-fixing curse, I have practically unlimited magical power, and I've gained the means to attack enough to make the demon disappear in one hit.


''Ku, don't come!　Don't come over here!

　The evil spirits are flying flying demonic bullets.
　It hits me directly, but...


Why?　Why isn't my - God's attack working?

　Of course I'm not damaged.

The only reason I can't take any more damage from any attack is because of you.

　Neither the Sea God's attacks nor the Dragon God's or the Martial God's attacks worked for me.

　It seems that among the same four great gods, the Sea God is stronger than the Sea God. There was no way that the evil god's normal attack would work on me who could nullify that sea god's attack.

''d*mn it!　What's going on?　Why doesn't one of the curses I put in place work?

　I'm walking around crushing the curse that I failed to step on the first time.

　Of course, I won't make the same mistake again.

　Some of the curses that were cast were curses that transferred the entire space around me to somewhere else, so those were divine characters that interfered with the evil god's curse and erased the curse itself.


''It's thanks to you that I was able to have resistance to poison, paralysis, curses, etc.

　I found out that it had no effect on me except for the transferable curses, so I deliberately stepped on it and lifted them all.


'It's because of you that I've gained so many friends.

　Luke, Luna, Rifa, Yoko, Mai, May, May, Meldi, Ryushin, and Luca.

　I met them all because I was a sage.

　It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to find out what's going on in the world.


I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that my parents are kind to me, and my older brothers and sisters are very reliable. It was you who gave me a family with a cute little sister.

　My father, my mother, Cain, Leon and Charles.
　I love my family very much.

　Thanks to the evil gods who reincarnated me in a noble family called Silverlei.


It's not because of you that I had a family called Elnor. I'm sorry.

　Yeah. That's not true.

　That's mainly because my father set up a house for me at the Academy.

　The fact that Tina earned money for us is also a big factor.

　Thanks to my father, Tina, and Luano, the headmaster of the academy, who allowed me to invite outsiders into the academy, I was able to welcome wives such as Seira, Elmia, Hakua, Kikyou, Sitri, and Akari to the Elnor family.


My best friend and my brother-in-law also have a family of their own.

　Luke has a wife named Rielle and Ryushin has a wife named Hinata.


''The reason I got along with the Divine Beast is........luck, right?

　Shiloh settled in the Elnor family because Shiloh happened to be sleeping near my parents' house and I happened to wake him up, and Tina's specialty, curry, happened to be Shiloh's favorite dish.


''I also signed up for the Adventurer's Guild. It's not easy to improve my rank, but I'm having a lot of fun being an adventurer.''

　We're D-rank adventurers now.

　Once we get to C rank, we can make a clan. Then we'll invite Sally and Lilia to join us, and we'll start working as a clan. One of the fun parts of the game is participating in the clan competition.


''I've also received the friendship of the nobles and royalty of many countries. There is even a country that I've become the owner of.

　Every once in a while, King Glendale would bring Cain with him to eat Tina's food.

　Since the Sylphs became my family, the Elf King with Sarion has been bringing all kinds of advice to me.

　I often get asked by Leo, the Beast King, to train the Beast King's soldiers in Bestieth, where I am the owner, and I go to visit him every two weeks or so.


''It's because of you that I was able to come to the God Realm like this.

　Because I have infinite magical power, I've been able to use the divine character to get here.


By the way, that thing that's holding you back is also...

Hmm?　Hmm!　Mnh!

　The evil god's limbs and mouth were bound by a string made of glowing letters.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find out more about this.

　I wanted you to stay with me for a bit, so I let you restrain me.


''Mmmm!''

　The evil gods are staring at me so much.

　It's almost over, so just be quiet for a bit.


"Evil God. I'm grateful to you.

Hm?　Mwah!　No!

I've met everyone. I'm a warrior in this world. The best part is...

　I look back.

　There was Tina, looking at us with concern.


'Thanks to you, I got to see Tina again.

　When I came to this world as a guardian hero, I fell in love with a girl.

　That girl had been waiting for me for a hundred years.

　And just like she promised, she found me.
　Tina was so beautiful.

　And she did everything to make sure I'd have a good life when I came back to the world.

　I was so happy.

　The evil goddess sent me to Tina, who cares about me wholeheartedly, and she sent me back to her.
　I'm grateful from the bottom of my heart.

　That's why...


'I'd really like to hit you for the number of times you've killed me, but I'm more than a little grateful to you. So I'll keep it to just one hit.

　The Evil God has already bound me with divine attribute magic, so I don't have to worry about being able to escape in the transition.

　I gathered all of the magic power that covered the Evil God's temple to my right hand in order to block the transition.

　The body is clothed in a magic robe, and the magic robe still has the effects of the auxiliary magic that Luna cast on me before I came to the divine world. That's why I used all the magic power I released after coming here to strengthen the magic robe on my right hand.

　By the way, if I make it a holy attribute or something like that, it might possibly annihilate the evil gods, so I'll make it a non-attribute magic.

　The magic power that was compressed too densely shook the space.


''Mugu?　Mugga, mugga!　Mugger!

　The color of fear spreads across the evil god's face when he sees it.

　Sorry. I didn't mean to scare you.
　As far as I'm concerned, one punch is all that's necessary.

　I'll make it quick and easy for you.　


"Evil spirits. It's really...

　In this blow, I'm going to give it all I've got.

　My fear of death, my resentment.
　And to the evil gods - a huge thank you.


"Thank you very much!

　He slammed his fist with all his strength into the Evil God's stomach.

　The body of the Evil God easily broke the restraints of the cord made by the divine attribute magic and was blown away.

　The wall of the temple also broke through and went far away──.


　That's God.

　He hit her with that kind of power, and she blew up with her form still intact.

　Maybe it didn't disappear.

　He must have instilled a lot of fear in them, so they won't be able to retaliate.

　Just in case the evil gods appear in the human world, I put a magic circle on it when I hit them, which I will immediately summon to the spot if they appear in the human world.

　Well, if you're going to come, why don't you come?　I'm like.

　I blew up the evil god, but I'm not proud of it.

　I'm promised that the villain will come back with a power up or something.

　So I'll continue to train myself, my family and my friends to be powerful.

　But for now...


'Ah. That felt good!

　It's great to see you.
　I did it.

Herr Hurt. You did it.

Yeah. It's taken me quite a while to get here. But Tina I made it.

Yes. I was watching closely.

'I saw it too!　Brother Hal, that was so cool!

''Master, me too. Seeing the evil gods blowing away was truly exhilarating.

''Yes. I must tell everyone on the waiting list the last of the evil gods.

'Brother Hal defeated God but he's not going to be God, is he?

No, I won't.

　That's not how God is supposed to be, is it?

That's a relief!　You're going to be with your brother Hal for a long time to come!

　As he said that, Akari hugged me.

''Ah, Akari-san, it's not fair!

'Yes, sir. Me too!

　Tina and Citry hugged me, too.
　I realize once again that it's over.


　I've done what I had to do.

　But I still have a lot of things I want to do in this world.

　So far, this was the story of my revenge on the evil gods.

　From now on, the story of my enjoyment of my life in this other world will begin!



All right, let's get out of here.

　I took Tina and the others to my family, who were waiting for us to return.
