Odin, the Lord God, aka the Demon King, watched the battle that was taking place near the Mithril Mine.
　The place was his home base, the Demon King's Castle.

　The omniscient and omnipotent God could see everything on earth, no matter where he was on earth.

''Daedanenoo, that's great!

　Snap, snap, snap.........
　The large space in the Demon King's room was well echoed with unassuming applause.

''You took advantage of Bezetan-kun, who was attached to you with the intention of harassing you, to bond with Dariel-kun by using him in reverse. That's pretty good, nice, awesome!

　The Demon King muttering to himself.

　His appearance was the same as when he had infiltrated Rax Village.

　He looks like an innocent child.

　If a person is an omnipotent being, he or she is free to take on any shape or form as he or she sees fit, but is it too much trouble to change it every time?

But is it too much trouble to change it every time?　What do you think, Ida-kun?
Ha.

　Beside him, an innocent boy, all pure white, was kneeling.

　A child following a child.
　A child obeying a child. It may look like a joke, but there is a tension in the air that never seems to be there.

　Ida, who is much older than she appears to be, says of the four heavenly kings of the past, who do not even exist in this world.

It's not just the good-naturedness, it's the viciousness of the situation. If their wishes are fulfilled, the conflict will be cut off from the earth. They will be ruled by a sluggish stagnation.

　People have many opinions, but for Ida at least, peace was inexcusable.

　In his lifetime, he was a fierce warrior who lived through a war-torn era that was still more chaotic than today.
　After his death, he was welcomed into Valhalla, one of the worlds ruled by the Demon King, and was elevated to an existence that would continue to fight for eternity.

　Because of his history, it would be unforgivable for him to even suggest the possibility of a world without conflict.

I don't deny that you seek peace, but it is something that must be found after you have overcome the struggle. Stopping the fight in the middle of it is outrageous. If you give your permission to the Demon King, I will personally go to the rescue myself.
Okay, okay, I just wanted to get your opinion.

　I don't know what the Demon King, who is also the Lord God of this world, is thinking in an unenthusiastic mood.

　Is he really happy or indignant at the outcome of this?
　Or is he not interested in anything?

I'm sure you're not going to be able to find out what I'm talking about. You are the most self-indulgent ruler in the world, but you have to take responsibility for your own words and actions. You have to take responsibility for your own words and actions...
His Majesty didn't foresee how that young lad would go to such lengths?

　Although he has not yet accomplished anything concrete, the one thing that persuaded Dariel to do so is worthy of amazement.

　After all, that man has a history of dismissing even the Demon King's direct requests.

　Dariel says that he has arrived at the only power that the Demon King recognized as capable of defeating him.......the power of "Heaven".

　Because he is such a man, he cannot be obeyed by force and can only be moved by appealing to his true feelings.

　Bezzeria would say that he reached his true feelings.

　Ida, as an apostle of Valhalla, is one who is a dedicated believer in power.
　To such a man, Bezelia, who was the Four Heavenly Kings in this world, was still only a young monk, but that was why it was such a shock to him that he moved Dariel.

''........I didn't have Bezelia-kun on my mind....

　The Demon King says.

''Every once in a while, a girl will come out and say something like that. It's the best thing to be peaceful. It's a commonplace and beautiful phrase, so it's repeated regularly.
And what will happen?
'Just look at what's going on.　What's the point?　And the kids who started talking about peace are nothing. They didn't go to hell, and they didn't go to Valhalla. They're just ordinary.

　He was a demon king who didn't pay the slightest bit of attention because he thought Bezellia was one of them.

　At best, he focused on his blood relationship with the 'Muddy Water' Bezetan, who was an avenger in Dariel's eyes, and possessed the residual soul of the Bezetan that he had saved to see if he could give Dariel some kind of stimulation.
　That's the extent of it.

　That one move is about to push the entire world situation into an unexpected vector.

''It's not good...''

　Ida prostrated herself more and more deeply.

　For a warrior loyal enough to be welcomed by Valhalla, there should be no situation that goes against the demon king's wishes.

I will go to him. "I will go to you," he said, "and you will receive me in Valhalla after burying the great Dariel.
You think you can handle the man who destroyed Mr. Dorismegian?

　Those words pierced Ida's heart.

'Dariel-kun's power of existence after stepping into the Heavenly Dao can't be managed by you guys in the Shura Dao. You should refrain from doing anything unnecessary.
Ha......
I don't have a...

　The Demon King........God spoke.
　The weight of his tone made Ida naturally tense up as well.

''........Why were you born?''
What?
I've never understood. The only thing I can't know is that I am supposed to be omniscient and omnipotent. It's the reason for existence. I feel like I've been thinking about it for the past tens of thousands of years, ever since my birth.

　And once God assumes one answer.

　To evolve.

"Everything born and born changes in whatever form it takes. Change itself is life, and ceasing to change is death. And because I exist, I am alive, and because I am alive, I must change. And if you're going to change, you have to change for the better.

　To change for the better and better.
　That change is evolution.

But my cock is perfect when it's first born. There's no way to evolve further. Then what should we do?　If you can't rise above yourself, you can create others beyond yourself.

　That was the beginning of God's play, a play that continues to this day.
　In order to create something beyond himself, he first created the strongest and most honestly powerful monsters, but it didn't work.
　Those monsters are now called Demonic Beasts.

　His next attempt was to gradually raise the weaker lives at first, and eventually lead them to surpass him.
　He also prepared a path for them to evolve after their souls were freed from their bodies, such as Valhalla and Hell.

　Dariel is one of the answers we have reached at the end of it all.

　Finally, humans have reached a stage where they can kill God.
　While rejoicing at his achievement, however, Dariel refused to defeat the Demon King.

　He has the ability but not the will to do it.

　To top it all off, he was devoted to the peace that Bezelia advocated and accepted cooperation.

You will be able to find out if it's the right thing to do.　And?
''Is that...?''

　Ida panicked just listening.
　A perfect God would make a mistake, he couldn't let that happen.

'To be beyond God is to kill Him. I've always thought so, and I've been trying to get humanity to do so as well. But the more I look at you, Dariel, the more I think about it. There is only one way to rise above God.

　Fighting God, defeating God, killing God.
　Is that the only way to surpass God?

　But Dariel rejected that seemingly unique path, and not only that, but he has acted beyond God's intentions on several occasions since.

I've been watching him, and I've thought to myself. I think that to truly surpass me...to surpass God, it would have to be in a way that I could never have imagined.

　You can't be beyond God if you don't deviate enough from God's imagination.

　Unbeknownst to him, Dariel is now trying to deviate from the structure of the world that God has arranged.

Could it be that stepping beyond the world God has constructed in this way, and building a new world using only human imagination, is what will truly surpass God?
No it's not ... it's not!

　Ida's voice trembles and refuses.

'My Lord why do you say such impudent things?　We're just trying to be helpful to you, and we're excited to this day to surpass you.

　Even if your body is destroyed after death, you will still be able to forge yourself by stepping into the demon world of Valhalla according to God's command to 'surpass yourself'.

"I am not alone in this...!　Drismegian and others have done me no favors in laying down justice and pride for you.　And if it was a mistake, then he is not rewarded for it!
It's not like I told you to throw it away, you know...

　The Demon King reaches out to the void.

''But don't be so quick to judge. We haven't come to a conclusion yet. Let's try again to see if they're right.

　Yes, to Dariel and the others who have just passed one ordeal.
　They will be put to the test again soon.

"Dariel-kun. If you are truly greater than you think you are, my dear. I won't need him anymore. I'll take another look at you to see what you can do with him, and then we'll have a new conclusion.

　The magic power released from the Demon King's hand is carried far away.

"Now, I'm sorry for making you 'wait' for so long. You don't have to endure it anymore. Eat up all this world as you please. You were born for that.

　The first being created by God, only to surpass him.
　The fifth monster beast was regarded as the most evil and worst of them all.

Let's go.
