Boundless Necromancer

449. Mud (1)

Even if it wasn’t for the system messages that appeared in front of me, I could have guessed that this was a very bad crisis situation.

「Achievement ‘Crisis of Desperation’ has been achieved.」

「Exclusive authority #D-0007[Increase reward] is activated automatically when the conditions are met.」

「The reward level obtained from the achievement increases.」 「All stats increase

by 10 It rises.」

At this point, I can’t help but notice.

The God of Proof was aware that the ‘War of the Gods’ was a reproduction of past records by the Tower of Trials.

Otherwise, it is difficult to vaguely deny that the story is not true.

‘…Could it be that you learned information about the Tower of Trials or me?’

In response, I looked at the god of proof pretending to be nothing on the outside, and quickly repeated thoughts in my head in an instant.

‘…no. can’t it be If the god of proof knew the Tower of Trials or my true identity, I wouldn’t act like that. It’s not yet certain, it’s just a guess.’

Isn’t the question that the other side asked me why I was treating him as if I had known him for a long time?

‘I didn’t notice that when I saw that he didn’t openly talk about the Tower of Trials or my purpose like the god of time.’

If so, there is still room for clearing up the suspicions.

“It’s hard to understand what you mean by that.”

As it was, I frowned and said it as if it was difficult to understand.

“You already know what kind of relationship you have with me, don’t you? It was the first time we met when we came to the War of the Gods for unknown reasons. I don’t need to explain it again with my own mouth…”

But that’s for a while.

“The god of proof shakes his head and answers.”

[No. I’m not talking about the first time we met after entering the War of the Gods. Rather, it is an essential story that you and I already know. Anecdotes you know but I don’t. Perhaps it has something to do with the secrets you hide. ]

Even with the words this side said, the god of proof continued as if he hadn’t resolved his suspicions in the slightest.

[For example, no one can enter the war of the gods because of the battle system made up of divinities. How did it come in? Even though it has a high level of divinity among ancient deities that can be called the lord of the universe, even the name of the deity has never been known. For some reason, an ancient deity like you treats me like a high-ranking deity with such respect…]

“It’s a misunderstanding. How I got into the War of the Gods is just the part I’m curious about. Well, it’s true that even among the ancient deities that exist in this universe, they have a high level of strength, but if they’ve been hiding their power, it doesn’t make sense, right?”

[ okay? In my own way, I’ve seen a lot of ancient gods as well as high-ranking or official gods… Like you, those who hide the fact that they’ve become ancient gods or treat opponents with lower levels of divinity than themselves with such respect. never seen it ]

“Ever since I was a mortal, I tend to treat others with the lowest level of courtesy.”

[ hmm. If you remember even a small part of what you’ve done so far in the War of the Gods, it’s hard to say such a thing, even if it’s a lie, unless your conscience is broken… It’s amazing. ]

“….”

It was hot.

In fact, in the war of the gods, I had never shown such a good side to others.

Well, that’s not what this side wanted, but there should be room for excuses for the other party committing an unexpected act (?) that led to an armed conflict.

However, despite this, he could not continue to make excuses until he heard what the god of proof said in the next turn.

[Let me ask you one more question. ]

He would too…

[Let’s say everything you said is real, not fake. Let’s say it was your first encounter when you came to the War of the Gods and met me. If all of this is just a coincidence, and you are an ancient deity from the beginning and have nothing to do with me. ]

Accordingly, the moment when the god of proof had emotions close to certainty in his eyes.

“The God of Proof looks at you as if you have something more to say.”

[…Why on earth does the scent of the holy relic I created linger on you? ]

…I just couldn’t think of anything anymore, my mind went white and the thought stopped.

***

Accident stop.

Until now, the things I had thought about how to make excuses to the God of Proof became meaningless.

As a result, I tried to somehow clear my white-washed head, move my thoughts again, and try to connect my thoughts.

‘A holy relic?’

Doesn’t that mean one thing?

‘Could it be that I still have traces of the holy relic ‘Black Mirror of Innocence (SSS+)’?’

god of birth.

Not long ago, this side of the Tower of Trials carried out the punishment request given by the Pantheon instead of the trials on the 27th floor, and it reminded me of the ancient deity I killed for the first time.

At that time, in order to push the god of birth to the limit, he overlapped and invoked the divine < fighting spirit >, showed off his body movements that reached the speed of light itself, and at the same time used the power to seal the divinity of the opponent and himself.

‘Damn it…’

I couldn’t help but curse in my heart when I realized that it was the holy relic ‘Black Mirror of Innocence (SSS+)’.

‘There are still traces of using the holy relic ‘Black Mirror of Innocence (SSS+)’ on me?’

If traces of using the holy relic ‘Black Mirror of Innocence (SSS+)’ remain on me, wouldn’t it be meaningless to deny what the other side said?

‘…is it real? Or is it bluffing?’

However…

that means that lies do not work under the premise that everything the God of Proof has said is true.

It seemed that it would not be easy to read the traces of the holy relic, as the god of proof said.

‘…Anyway, there’s nothing good about admitting that it’s true right here.’

Even if the other side read the traces of the holy relic from me, there is no need to admit it straight away.

“It is a misunderstanding. Reverberation of the holy relic? I wonder if I felt something wrong…”

[Hmm. is it? That’s a curious misunderstanding. However, from my point of view, you can feel traces of the holy relic. ]

“Well, it seems like a problem for the god of proof to think about. I have absolutely nothing to do with it.”

[I see…]

I nodded as if I didn’t think that the God of Proof would openly admit it, and took something out of my chest.

[It’s a slim chance… Well, it could be a coincidence that the reverberation of the holy relic comes out like you said. There are quite a few bizarre things that happen within a planet, but even if you look at the entire universe, how rare is the ancient deity? ]

And.

[However, what if the reverberation of the sacred relic is felt strong even in the entire universe, and it is a heterogeneous situation where you can feel the only one and only two relics? ]

Chuck.

Accordingly, the moment when the god of proof took something out of his chest and showed it to him.

“…”

I had no choice but to realize that no matter how untrue this was, it would be meaningless.

‘…Yes, if there is, I can understand why he expressed his doubts to me.’

It’s nothing else…

‘the mirror of belief.’

The holy relic ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ was being reflected in my field of vision.

The holy relic ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ given by the God of Proof that I met in the Tower of Trials before must have become the holy relic ‘Black Mirror of Innocence’.

There was no way he didn’t know what the holy relic ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ in front of him looked like, and just having it was enough to understand the situation.

「The god of proof looks at you and smiles bitterly.」

[ …I see. You don’t have to tell me it’s not true anymore. Seeing that you can’t hide your confusion any longer, I think the answer is already out there. ]

Maybe that’s why?

[Actually, even if I didn’t ask you, I already realized to some extent just from the words that I don’t know if it’s a prophecy or speculation given by the god of time. ]

The god of proof spat out in a muffled voice, as if recalling the distant past.

[Why?… He didn’t even want to realize what the truth was. It was hard. The day will come when you realize and accept the truth. The moments of life that I still remember vividly when I close my eyes were the process of proof for me. It was hard to dismiss it as fake. So I pretended not to know. I kept the doubts from rising to the surface. ]

He continued with his eyes closed.

[When I first met you, when I felt the reverberation of the holy relic, I thought I was also mistaken. But… as time passed and every time you treated me with courtesy and asked various questions, my doubts grew uncontrollably. More so after talking with the god of time. ]

“….”

[God of Time. The story, whether it was a prophecy or speculation, seemed to point to ‘someone’. Even he suppressed his suspicions, saying that it must be fake, not true, but now he can’t. After hearing the story the God of Time told you, your reaction was unusual. ]

“…That’s right, everyone can’t help but feel puzzled when they hear what the god of time said—.”

[Surprised? well. Well, that could also be true. At that time, when you heard what the god of time said, didn’t you wonder, ‘How did he find out?’ If so, I wouldn’t be lying if I said I was puzzled by what you said. ]

“…I don’t know why I have to be misunderstood like this. The God of Creation, the God of Law, and the God of Miracles may also be watching over here. I am worried that what the god of proof conjectures will be known as fact even though it is not true.”

Can not help it.

Right now, the headquarters of the order camp is no different from a part of the divine realm created by the God of Creation, the God of Law, and the God of Miracles.

Considering that the unique abilities of the sacred realm are also applied to the ‘Divine Confrontation System’, which is the means of restraint that establishes the war of the gods, the possibility that the story being told here can be eavesdropped cannot be ruled out.

[I don’t think so. ]

But…

[Remember? You know what I said earlier when you said you were going to the god of creation out there that you had work to do. Perhaps those fools have no idea what’s going on here. ]

The God of Proof said calmly, as if it was a problem that had already been assumed.

[ …so now answer. ]

“….”

[ …what kind of relationship did you have with me? ]

“…That’s a difficult question to answer casually.”

can’t hide

The god of proof standing in front of me has already come to know who I am.

Even if this side insists that it is not true, there is no way that other side will believe it casually.

“He is a benefactor.”

So I answered.

“Ever since I was a mere mortal, the God of Proof has favored me and helped me in many ways, although I don’t know why.”

As the god of proof said, the divine power spread by the god of proof is attached like a thin film to the headquarters of the order camp.

“In a similar vein, the holy relic I have was given to me by the God of Proof to prepare for what will happen in the future.”

I decided that the god of creation, the god of law, the god of miracles would no longer be able to hear the words coming out of this, and I neatly admitted it.

“The god of proof expresses satisfaction.”

[ …I see. That means I’ve shown a fondness for beings like you since they were mortal. Is that why you treated me with respect? I understand. ]

The god of proof still closed his eyes and spoke as if he was sorry.

[ …okay. I got it. by the way Now you can’t run away from the facts like you used to. ]

Understanding the facts is difficult.

[ …This is not the real world and I was fake, not real. ]

Understanding and accepting that I am fake and not real is impossible without going crazy.

[…the fact that he obtained the concept divinity of divinity < proof > after not stopping the struggle for proof within a thousand years of his own time, and the glory of being a support for those who have the will to move forward with a large number of believers Is the decision to prevent the war from leading to a terrible ending, in the end, just a fake, not a real one? ]

Is that why?

[ …. ]

The God of Proof was silent after recognizing that he was created by the Tower of Trials.

It’s like trying to figure out what to do.

So, I waited until the god of proof settled my mind.

If the other side is against me after thinking about it, I can go and kill it then.

“…”

Time passed like that.

「The god of proof is looking at you.」

[ …Thank you. ]

After about ten minutes passed, the god of proof opened his eyes and said expressionlessly.

[ …Thanks to you, I think I’ve finally decided what to do. ]

And.

[Everything is fake, not real, and even if it’s just someone’s dream, I just do what I have to do. ]

It was then.

Kwajijik!

[Is it the path I chose to go forward and add strength to those who prove themselves…]

Suddenly, the god of proof stabbed his left hand into his chest and pulled out something containing vast divine power.

Awesome-!

[Just as I did for you in the real world, I should do for you in the fake world as well.]

Next moment.

Hwa-ah—!

In the blink of an eye, the God of Proof touched the holy relic ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ with something imbued with vast divine power.

Ku-gu-gu-gu-gu-!!

At that moment, the holy relic ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ changed as it came into contact with something like the divine power itself held in the left hand of the god of proof.

“…Even if everything is just a story in a dream that is just a handful of sand that will dissipate someday, I can’t take my eyes off what I have to do.”

The god of proof no longer used the divine voice.

chuck.

“It is my job to give opportunities to those who are willing and qualified to move forward…”

No.

it was not usable.

…That’s because the divinity itself, the concept he had, escaped to the outside and turned into a single material.

chuck.

“…hand it over.”

It was simple.

“…that will help to blossom the seeds of transcendence and ascension held by the god of death.”

…It was a holy relic that was no different from a memento forged from a single life containing the power itself built up by the god of proof as a high-level deity.
