"Gear Up: Imprisoned Arsenal, Ouroboros Omniscia."

  The coffin began to warp and coil around my left arm, transforming into a silver gauntlet.

  Despite sustaining so much injury, especially with Gáe Bolg turning every blood vessel into thorns, it still tries to attack me.

  "Spiral... Gaxy.", it cloned itself five times and surrounded me.

  I csh my cws against each other, creating sparks of electricity.

  I swung my cws around, just as Hoshimukade swung its swords. A wall of lightning shot down from the sky, cshing against the spacial sshes.

  It is learning... the more desperate it is, the stronger it will be.

  I need to lock it down to get a clear shot...

  I sighed.

  "Open, Gate of Akasha. Come! The Barrel Pointed at God! Fallen Starlight!!"

  My favorite weapon appeared in my left hand, and my gauntlet transformed itself for ease of use. Shame that would be useless...

  "Gear Up: Barrel Pointed at God, Fallen Starlight."

  And Fallen Starlight transformed, turning into a... mask. A marble mask with the symbol of the Rose Compass, my symbol.

  "Let me tell you a story..."

  Hoshimukade merged into one again, it sends the centipede at me— to which I just grab it with my gauntlet and give it an electric shock!!

  Boom!!

  The centipede exploded into glittering stardust.

  "A Tale of the Beginning."

  Hoshimukade engaged me, cshing its bde against my electricity. I can sense its confusion, not knowing why it cannot cut through my white lightning, not to mention my gauntlet.

  The amplification Justice got is simple yet powerful. As long as Justice is on my side, I will always have the advantage... it just makes it so that I always have Justice on my side.

  I! AM! JUSTICE!!

  "Impossible...", it spoke in confusion.

  "Heaven and Earth split, and the Void congratuted Infinity."

  I swung my gauntlet, transformed into the missile uncher, and fired at it.

  Tch, it deflected all of the missiles.

  "Mortar of Souls, Divinity's Hell is the Eve of Humanity!"

  But I am close to finishing. The energy covering the nce is spinning faster and faster, to the point it generates a gyroscopic effect.

  "My Lance of Righteousness shall Pierce all Evil."

  Sensing danger, Hoshimukade backed away and readied a defensive stance. But with Fallen Starlight here... everything is useless.

  I pointed the nce at it and...

  Thrust—"Enuma Elis!!"

  A beam of pure light shot out, it reached Hoshimukade instantly— and it split off into eight beams, going around the sword.

  "!!!", it was caught off-guard.

  Resulting in eight beams of light piercing through its back, they flew up to the sky—

  —and dropped down, piercing through its head.

  "By my Creed of Justice, save the soul and body of that unfortunate human.", I pointed my index cw at it, and smiled, "Power of Judgement, do your fucking job!!"

  And erupting from the ground was a white cross crackling with electricity.

  KAKAKRAKOOM!!!

  And a fucking lightning bolt hit it!!

  !!

  The pressure of Judgement is separating the two! I can see Mitsuki's body slowly cutting off from that window to the universe.

  And soon, their bodies were separated.

  "Mit...su...ki...", it tried reaching out to her.

  The harpoons transformed into grabbers. I unched them towards Mitsuki.

  Click—

  And I dragged her back to my side, into my arm... her hair had changed color, now being a light brown.

  "Mitsu...ki...", it cried out one st time.

  "This trial is over... Game cancel.", fu... I really need a smoke break after this... I am really tired now.

  The virtual world starts to break down...

  "Give... me... back Mitsuki...", fuck, "GIVE BACK MY MITSUKI...!!"

  "Shut up, you are killing her just by being near her.", I sighed, now the dangerous part is over I can run my mouth for as long as I want.

  "What...?"

  "You emit cosmic radiation, normally it's so weak it has no effect. But stay at point-bnk? Well... she's dying because of you."

  I want to finish it now, but honestly... I lost all motivation seeing how pathetic it is. Is that a good idea? Fuck no, it will definitely bite me in the ass ter. But that's a problem for the future Charlotte.

  "Tell me, do you love Mitsuki?"

  It nodded.

  "Then get as far away from her as possible."

  "For Mitsuki...", it stared up to the sky, staring at the tendrils.

  It swung its sword, creating a tear in reality. And it entered the tear, disappearing from sight.

  Now... another problem.

  I am surrounded by a few hundred people in fshy clothing... they are here to capture me...

  You know what?

  "Avalon, deal with them. I am too tired of this bullshit."

  With just one request, crows began to surround me. They also ignited into fme.

  And...

  That body appeared right before me, blood red hair and eyes, a shiny armor-like body with red scales all over. Red fur around their colr, and two horns on their head.

  Magnum Opus.

  "Did you like our whale, Charlotte?", they asked me.

  Well... "It was amazing, I love it!"

  "Then we will show you something even more amazing... 500 billion killed."

  Then the crows followed.

  "Mammal."

  "Avian."

  "Aquatic."

  "Bug."

  "We are the Records of Beast."

  I rolled my eyes, "Got it, got it—"

  "Cometh! Wind!!"

  All the crows were blown away by a strong wind— no, a hurricane...

  Standing there is a Miko with scarlet red hair, her sharp purple eyes stare at me. There was an intense pressure coming off of her...

  Yuugure Kra, someone chosen by the World itself.

  "Magnum Opus... tch... this is getting annoying.", she clicked her tongue, taking out dozens of Talismans from her sleeves.

  Hmm? She muttered something.

  'I will provide a distraction, so take the chance and get Mitsuki out.'

  I nodded.

  "Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, Metal. Obey me!", she threw all of her Talismans at us.

  They formed an elemental ball, harmonious in all aspects... I gnced at Avalon, they weren't doing anything.

  I cshed my cws together, and swiped at the incoming elemental attack!

  Boom!!

  Five lightning bolts cshed against the elemental ball, causing a huge explosion and creating a lot of smoke.

  "Delusion."

  I teleported both me and Mitsuki out of the area, back to Fukushima beach near the Power Pnt. I id Mitsuki on the ground.

  Dispelling Justice, Fallen Starlight and Ouroboros Omniscia went back to normal, ying beside me. I sat down and sighed... that was quite tough.

  Taking out a cigarette from my pack, and light it using Malice... I began to smoke.

  "Fu... that was quite an eventful night."

  The cigarette hit the spot quite well...

  I will rest here a bit and wait for Prydwen to fully recover...

  I wonder what is going on over there...

  =0=0=

  "Ugh... what in the name of the gods happened...", Kra compined.

  Everything they threw at it was useless. Its armor was too hard and thick to do any meaningful damage, not to mention the crazy regeneration that healed it almost instantly.

  Then it enters a stance, readying for a punch.

  !!!

  An aura of absolute dominance... as if what standing right in front of her was the apex of the world— no, it was even more dangerous than that...

  Realizing the danger, Kra quickly warned everyone.

  "EVERYONE!! GET AWAY FROM ITS ATTACK!! YOU WILL NOT SURVIVE!!"

  All the Demon Syer listened to her command, getting away from its path.

  And it threw a punch, a simple punch.

  ""ARRGGHHH!!!!""

  But that punch alone shattered everyone's eardrums. However, that was not all, it also shattered the entirety of Iwate mountain, causing a ndslide heading towards Morioka.

  "At this... distance? Just what is it?"

  She shook her head, quickly burning a Talisman— healing everyone.

  "I will go ahead and stop that ndslide! You all stay here to keep Magnum Opus in check!!", and Kra headed off.

  While it... Avalon keeps staring at their hand. That punch was strong, but they knew it would not phase Charlotte in the slightest.

  Especially with that lightning power... several bugs in their hivemind died during her smokescreen attack, even if they were five kilometers underground.

  They need more specimens to gain more power... but now they know... these humans cannot hope to defeat it in any way.

  The resilience and adaptation of two million cockroaches, the regenerative of over a thousand axolotl. The tough hide of honey badger, the shell of bettle and turtle, scale of reptile...

  It is time to go on a hunt.

  But first...

  "ARGGGHH!!"

  They need to deal with the Demon Syers and escape. That teleportation power can only be used once per day with this body...

  But still, no human can go against them. Their scales are like sandpaper, cerating the body of a Demon Syer in half. Shark skin.

  Then they emitted a yer of slime, throwing it at a group of Demon Syers. Hagfish slime.

  "Spread out!!"

  Some were stuck inside the slime, unable to move. Spider web fluid.

  And then the slime exploded, blowing up chunks of meat. Bombardier beetle's explosive chemical.

  Cnk!!

  Someone tried to stab them in the back. Spike grew out of their back and shot out— impaling the Demon Syer, and killing her instantly. Jellyfish stinger, porcupine quill.

  Then they opened two pairs of wings, and their legs strengthened. And Avalon jumped, going a kilometer into the sky. Froghopper, flea, rabbit, kangaroo, cricket.

  And they flew away, like a speeding bullet. Hawk, dragonfly, hummingbird.

  The Master of Beasts is what this body will be cssified as ter on...

  =0=0=

  Off the coast of Japan, near Mutsu Province.

  There are two people wearing crow masks on a boat, using rods to scoop in the chunks of meat all over the water

  "We don't get breaks at all. Going to Mu only to find out they somehow lost the shield...", one of the compined, "Now headquarters tell us to look for a silver ship the satellites captured, in OPEN WATER!! Can't you believe it, Marcus?!"

  The other one refrained from speaking as he tried to pull up a chunk of meat.

  "Damn... what was this Leviathan? And who hunted it to be in this state?", Marcus put his hands in the water, rinsing them.

  "Maybe this Leviathan exploded?", the other guy wondered.

  "Impossible, no creature would have a self-destruct button."

  "You sure that's a fact, mate? Do you wanna bet on that?", he stared at his friend.

  "In any case, it is more probable that an Unauthorised Leviathan Hunter using a God Syer. Lucas, check the database on the region, look for all known Leviathan Hunters in the area to ask for information.", Marcus ordered.

  "Mate, you owe me thirty rounds of pints at the pub.", Lucas chuckled, dragging another piece of meat onto the boat, "But damn bruv, is this meat? It feels like a solid rock innit?"

  Marcus tried to stab a knife into the meat, only for the knife to snap in half.

  "Hmm... we need to bring this back for research."

  "More work?! Mate, I will not be going back to Britain straight away after TWO DAYS of traveling!!", Lucas yelled out to the ocean.

  Seeing how Lucas is compining so much, Marcus decided to do something to distract him.

  "Japan is just a few minutes away, wanna go get something to eat?", Marcus suggested.

  "Alright, let's put these chunks of meat into the freezer first."

  And they hauled the two chunks of whale meat, both bigger than their heads combined, into the onboard freezer.

  =0=0=

  "Mhmm...", Mitsuki wiggles.

  She's about to wake up.

  "You win this round, Londinium.", I put my controller down, letting my character get beat up.

  "C-Charlotte...?", she look up at me, as I am giving her a p pillow. Then her eyes moved to the ceiling, "EEK!! What is that?!"

  Londinium is crawling on the ceiling since he's more comfortable up there than down here. And his species evolved from a type of bug that is very simir to cockroach, he said it, no me~

  By the way, Mercurians evolved from some sort of primate like Earth. And Martian is... surprisingly, nudibranch, or some type of sea slug since Mars was originally a water world.

  Anyway, Londinium scared the shit out of Mitsuki, she's hugging me very tightly now. Though... I don't feel the coldness coming from her. She lost all her powers after separating from Hoshimukade.

  "W-What is that thing?!", Mitsuki pointed at Londinium.

  "He's Londinium, long story short, he's an alien."

  "Alien exist?!", she was shocked.

  "Specifically from—"

  I pointed Fallen Starlight at him.

  "No more words.", I told him, then looked at Mitsuki, "So the current situation is pretty bad for you. Your great-grandmother survived, somehow... and is now using your grandfather's body to testify against you. Since Gilgamesh took over my body for a moment, he destroyed every evidence that could be used against her."

  "Right... why did you stop me then...", she frowned, a sad air possessed her.

  "I do condone violence, but I don't kill people.", I torture them.

  "So... what do I... do now?", she look at her hands, clenched them tightly, "I don't even have my powers now..."

  I smiled and caressed her head, "You know, I believed I said what my dream was."

  "To break the shackles of traditions and culture?", she asked me with wonders in her eyes.

  "Yes...", I hate how one must act in accordance to their culture, "You are the proof of my dream, Mitsuki."

  "You broke free from the fate other people gave you. Now you only have to choose your own destiny, starting from zero.", I leaned in and hugged her around her head, "Be at ease and come with me, my friend. Have the rest that you deserve, we can start whenever you want..."

  "Hic...", she began to cry, hugging me back.

  All loose ends weren't tied... looks like I have to act alone again. And this time...

  "Tell me, Mitsuki. Do you view your great-grandmother as human?"

  "N-No... hic... she isn't human... she is a monster.", she replied unconsciously, not really paying attention.

  I see... good... it is for the right cause...

  This is my Creed of Justice after all, full of hypocrisy... as I believe that... sacrifices must be made for the greater good.
