Sajyou Manaka could never understand the emotions of ordinary people, nor could she enter the world of ordinary people.

Born with innate knowledge, almost omniscient, she has no real sense of this world.

Because this world is too fragile for her.

This is also because the world and its people are too "insignificant" to her.

That was before.

If the unknown suddenly appears, and if there is someone whose existence cannot be shaken no matter what one does, then one's current concept will change, and one's current perception of the world will also change.

For Sajyou Manaka,

This is what is called "realism".

It is possible to tolerate her willful behavior and not suppress her own sense of existence.

"Do you mean to kill me wantonly? You have also developed a skill that can't hurt anyone but me."

"Not tired?" Aika narrowed her eyes and smiled.

Rovi smiled and said, "Absolutely wonderful!"

"I think it's amazing too!" Yes, Sajyou Manaka just used the skill, which can't hurt anyone except for Rovi.

This is the power of the "Holy Son" of the Khrushchev clan, and it is also aimed at the abilities of the original humans.

Otherwise.

If Aika Makoto wanted to kill Sajyou Hiroki and Sajyou Ayaka, they would have no chance of surviving.

"You don't like killing your own family, right? So I won't do that kind of thing." Sajyou Manaka replied matter-of-factly, not because of familial love, which she couldn't feel for ordinary people.

It's simply because Rovi's exists, because Rovi dislikes it. "So I won't do anything where you can sense Lovi—that's also the 'rule' of the game!"

"If this rule is removed, Mr. Rovi won't continue playing with me, right? I don't want that!"

This is why Rovi was still able to treat her kindly.

Whatever the reason, at least in terms of behavior, Aika did not lose her bottom line as a human being. "It is a pity that the whole earth is within my perception."

"It's okay, isn't it? I'm already used to playing the role of an ordinary person, aren't I?"

So where to go next?

"Wherever you go, I'll go! After all, the world is more interesting with you around, isn't it?"

"If you want to kill me, just say so."

"..."

The sounds of their conversation faded into the distance, leaving a huge crater in the Sajou mansion, torn open by wriggling tentacles. Sajyou Hiroki stared blankly in the direction where the two had disappeared.

Just now, Aika laughed, right?

He wasn't mistaken... it was a smile, and a genuine smile that was no longer empty!

The head of the prestigious family stood frozen in place, ignoring even the cries of his second daughter, whom he held in his arms.

In a daze, Sajyou Hiroki seemed to have returned to a long time ago.

Back when Sajyou Ayaka hadn't been born yet, and when their mothers hadn't died in childbirth because of Ayaka's birth... at that time, they didn't have fear towards Aika, nor did they harbor that resentment that they themselves might not even be aware of.

And at that time, Ai Aika also seemed to have shown such a smile?

"So, it turns out I was the one who abandoned her first?"

Sajyou Hiroki lowered his head, looking at his own trembling hands. Perhaps long ago, he was the one who had pushed Sajyou Manaka one step further into the abyss of inhumanity...

"There are differences between games, aren't there?" Illusions intertwined, and a misty fog spread across the land, shrouding countless skyscrapers. Under the indescribable fog, Tokyo's Shibuya Ward was clearly an extremely dark and terrifying scene, yet Sajyou Manaka, who had left the Sajo Family with Rovi, always had a smile on her face.

The feeling was like that of high school students on a picnic.

She raised her face, the hem of her light blue long dress swaying in the wind, her slender and petite figure standing against the wind. "Actually, it's not that I haven't thought about playing a serious game with them?"

"What can I do if they don't accept it?"

Sajyou Manaka has no sense of reality about the world. Whether it's family or friendship, to her it's like a gamer facing a cold, stacked screen of data on a computer.

There is a difference between playing seriously and playing just to kill time.

The former had thrown away something.

There was no such thing as a "posthumous" (后䭾).

Once upon a time, Aika was a former Aika. Long ago, after Sajyou Hiroki developed fear of her and resentment because of that fear, he gradually became her lover.

But for ' Sajyou Ayaka '.

As for her younger sister, Aika still maintains a serious attitude of "playing the role".

Because Ayaka hasn't taken the same step as Hiroki Sajyou Hiroki yet.

Also because Aika and am bored, I want to kill time.

"But none of that matters now, because I've found some new toys to play with—"

Aika glanced sideways at Luo Rovi beside her.

She raised her red lips, revealing a rather bright smile, "Mr. Rovi, would you be willing to be my toy?"

"Who's whose toy is still up in the air," Rovi said, seemingly unconcerned.

Even though it was called a toy, he could tell that Ai- Aika's attitude towards him was definitely not something that could be described as a 'game'.

The only being Rovi, to date, gives her a sense of 'realness' is the one who allows her to act recklessly and display all her power.

When you have a real feeling, it's easy to develop emotions...

"I'll definitely find you and kill you, Mr. Rovi." Aika took two steps forward, slightly turned her body backward, and looked at Rovi.

Her long dress swayed, revealing her slender legs in silk stockings. The girl's blue eyes reflected Rovi's's figure. She slightly raised her hands, revealing her fair and beautiful chest. "Because this is what you wanted, isn't it?"

To fulfill Rovi's's wish.

While seemingly unchanged in purpose and still aimed at killing Rovi, the core of Sajyou Manaka's actions has already undergone a transformation.

"I'm just afraid you won't be able to do it." Rovi reached out and rubbed Aika's head.

The light from the sword was a crimson glow, slightly stinging, yet it still couldn't penetrate Rovi's's defenses. "Apocalypse Beast Crown, Holy City Capital Flame, still not enough!"

An invisible crown always resides on Aika's head.

Just as mentioned before.

Previously, he had already used part of the power of the yokai.

In religious mythology, the 'dragon' is a ferocious beast that brings apocalyptic disasters and emerges from the abyss after the angels sound their trumpets.

end.

Antichrist, anti-Son.

It reveals the saint to be evil and the beast.

It is both an opposition to Rovi standing in this moment in human form.

This is undoubtedly a powerful force against Rovi, a force that is targeted, specific, and targeted.

It was the same as before.

Its specifications are still a bit lacking.

A single drop of water cannot extinguish a massive fire that could engulf the world; the so-called "magnitude" is always based on a relatively small difference in magnitude.

"Ah, it's just an experiment anyway." Aika wasn't discouraged. She just felt the stroking on her head, squinted her eyes slightly, and revealed a sense of comfort, "But I think there's still a certain possibility that it will work."

"Mr. Rovi will play along with me, won't he?"

"I'll be with you forever, forever!"

"I can't make any promises." Rovi withdrew his hand from Aika's head. "Although your spirit is commendable."

"It's something we'll try out, we'll see later."

"Now, we need to deal with a minor problem."

As they spoke, the two drew ever closer to the depths of the mist. The indescribable fog disrupted time and space, further isolating this area from the outside world.

However, Rovi could still clearly sense the source of this mist.

That was a 'tree'.

Towering majestically at the edge of the mist, the tree shadows flow with endless, complex light and dappled silk threads.

It is like an illusion, yet it truly exists here.

—— [Shining Void Tree].

That's all.

Rovi knew who was here, but he didn't know.

"One of Yog-Sothoth's human Executor, Abigail Williams."

The figure of the little girl who had a fleeting, breathtaking eye contact with the evil god during the brief encounter between the Great Qin and the evil god.

It wasn't just him.

At the same time, Aika, who was standing next to her, also sensed the tree of light and the Nameless Chaos ahead.

"Hmm, has it exceeded the scope that the source can control?"

The blonde girl tossed her thin, short hair.

"Yes, that is an existence that is beyond the scope of what the source can encompass," Rovi answered. Letting Aika know more would naturally allow her to wield more power and have more potential to pose a threat to him.

Knowledge is power.

For her, who is connected to the Root, completing this transformation is not difficult. "The Old Ones represent the embodiment of order in the chaotic aspect of the ancient universe. In fact, they have long since transcended the universe and are lurking in the gaps between different universes."

Those who transcend, who transcend the source, are naturally unable to fathom the origin of the Aika that are linked to the source.

The blonde girl became noticeably more excited. "This world is getting more and more interesting!"

Having previously known everything, she unexpectedly encountered things she couldn't comprehend after Rovi's appearance...

"Mr. Rovi, you really are my lucky star!"

Aika blinked. "So, we're going to stay together from now on and you're not allowed to leave, okay?"

"I have a feeling that being by your side will allow me to encounter more interesting things!"

"Killing me would be more interesting, do you believe it?"

"Of course I believe you!"

With each word exchanged, the two gradually ventured deeper into the area.

Tentacles kept wriggling and appearing in the flowing mist, and the closer it got to the perceived 'virtual tree,' the larger and more numerous the tentacles became.

They were inherently unrestrained instigators, inherently constantly impacting the real world.

After Rovi appeared, the situation remained deadlocked.

It was as if they had encountered their nemesis.

It's more like encountering someone of a higher status.

Within the fog, the fog reappears.

In this world where light and shadow intertwine, a chaotic and scattered core has emerged.

The ' Core of Chaos ', 'Taiyi', and ' Nameless Body ' slowly unfolded behind Rovi.

The invisible murmurs drifted in the wind, their force like a resounding bell, echoing in all directions.

Countless people lost in the fog suddenly awoke, looked up at the sky, and saw the rising sun, with Taiyi appearing within the fog.

Countless investigators from the Spiral Pavilion who ventured into the mist couldn't help but bow and worship the 'Heaven' that protects all people in China.

On this day, youthful beauty blossoms.

In that instant, the sky shone with boundless light, and the Core of Chaos gathered from all directions.

As Rovi moved forward, Aika, with her light steps, grabbed Rovi's sleeve and followed closely behind.

Gazing at the tall, slender figure ahead, and looking at the handsome profile of Rovi Wei, who was dressed in a black modern casual suit, Sajyou Manaka tilted her head.

She suddenly remembered a story she had read a long time ago.

It reminded me of the 'dream' I had imagined back then.

Aika actually enjoys reading fairy tales that seem extremely unrealistic to adults.

The Root Princess of all things, preferred the pure fantasies of children.

So she always hoped that she could have a fairytale-like experience.

Like a katydid living in a ivory tower.

It's like welcoming your own Prince.

"Isn't it a beautiful story Mr. Rovi, about the one who wants to kill the Prince and the Prince who wants to be killed by the prince?"

"You have a huge misunderstanding of the word 'beautiful'!"

"But I think it's pretty good, isn't it? Didn't Mr. Rovi want to die? A dead Mr. Rovi would be quite interesting, wouldn't he?"

Rovi didn't respond, because he had already turned his gaze forward.

The mist stretches to its end.

The radiant, ethereal tree is clearly reflected in the world, drawing upon a vast expanse of light and mist, like a pillar supporting the world.

The tree, though called a tree, actually has no branches or leaves. From a distance, it appears as a pale outline, reflecting the vast starry sky and the endless universe.

A figure sat on that tree.

A blonde girl wearing a long black dress, a round hat, and adorned with delicate bows sat kneeling at the top of a tree, swinging her slender legs that extended from beneath her lotus-leaf pants.

She swayed her head as if listening to some beautiful music, her dark blue eyes slightly narrowed, her parted golden hair revealing her smooth forehead, and the black keyhole appearing and disappearing intermittently.

She is Abigail Williams.

The summoner of the radiant Void Tree, one of the Old Ones second only to Azathoth, the source of the chaotic universe, the All-Knowing and All-Seeing, the guardian of the Gate of Truth, the Key of the Gate, Yog-Sothoth.

She is a follower of an evil god.

At the same time, it is also the nascent form of an evil god incarnate.

He possesses the potential to become an evil god, Primordial Eternal, Tavel At Umur.

Yes, what is revealed here is not just the simple Abigail.

She is not simply a priestess Old Ones.

is a seat of the Great Old Ones.

"Only something like this could display such a massive scale!" Rovi said without any surprise.

It was at this very moment that Rovi and Aika stepped onto this spot.

At the same time, Abigail also raised her eyes.

She smiled and said, "We meet again... big brother."

"As promised, I've come to play with you, okay?"
