Realm of the Divine Lilith
KWA-AANG!
Dozens of deities were surrounding Lilith, fighting fiercely.
– Traitor Lilith. We will eliminate her.
– Tch! They’re nothing but worthless beings that can’t even stand up against one or two of us!
KWA-AANG!
KWA-KWAAANG!
– I can’t believe ‘Chaos’ is getting involved. Please be safe, Lilith. I’ll be there soon.
Proclamation of Realm.
*
– My beloved Lord! For you, this Judah shall sacrifice everything!
Judah beamed at me with a bright smile.
Judah, huh.
Judah definitely perished.
After obtaining divinity, she must have burned her divinity and perished with Saros, right?
So why is Judah here?
Overwhelming divine power resonated around her.
Is she still maintaining her divinity?
No, it’s not just maintenance.
It’s an incredible level of divinity.
It wasn’t simple divinity.
It was dark… a negative divinity that conjured a sense of dreadful emotions.
As if… if there’s a dark deity, it would have the same atmosphere as her.
And with such a significant amount.
Not as much as the sole god Deus, but denser and more extensive than any other god besides her.
What on earth happened to her?
– She’s gathered divine power through faith.
Deus spoke as he looked at Judah.
“Through faith?”
– She has resurrected in the same way as I did.
The same way as Deus.
I see.
Judah Iscariot, the betrayer of Luke Christos.
She must have been accepted by my followers as the traitorous Demon Lord.
They don’t believe in her but think of her as the satan of evil, which led to her resurrection!
Just like how Deus resurrected through faith derived from the scriptures!
– That’s not all. She absorbed the eleven lords existing in Hell. All those demons.
Lords of Hell?
– They are beings of divinity chased away from the ground. They were once competing with the gods of this continent and settled in hell when they lost… That gal, she devoured them all. That must be why she possesses such absurd amounts of divinity.
These were beings that didn’t appear in [Deus Ex Machina].
Or rather, did the game fail before they could even appear?
Anyway, the story is that Judah has made an enormous comeback, huh?
I was planning on creating a scripture about her to resurrect her one day, but if it turned out this way, it’s even better.
“Judah.”
– I’m so sorry, Lord! I foolishly betrayed you! I… I…!
THUD!
Judah completely knelt down before me.
It was as if she was performing a penitent gesture.
“How have you been in the meantime?”
She gently lifted her face and looked up at me.
– Lor…d…
“Today is a good day. I’m thankful to once again meet my beloved little lambs.”
I stepped forth and lifted her up.
She, now a powerful entity wrapped in immense divinity, trembled at just holding my hand like the time when she was my disciple.
…
Wait a minute.
If Judah resurrected based on faith like Deus, wouldn’t she become fixated on the contents of her faith, just as Deus obsessed over becoming one with me?
The betrayer Judah Iscariot.
…Isn’t this her betraying me again?
I invoked ‘Gift’ and placed my hand upon her.
“I forgive your sins.”
Then I lightly placed my hand over her head.
“You are no longer Judah. You are an angel of Deus. Seraphim.”
As I wished for it to become as I envisioned.
– Aah, my one and only master!
Judah murmured with her face filled with joy.
Then a brilliant light erupted from behind her.
A blinding light that could blind anyone.
The darkness of this realm transformed into brightness.
Judah’s light transformed into a radiant brilliance.
She was no longer a dark deity.
She had become the holy saint Judah Iscariot, reborn in the light of the sacred Lord Deus.
– Thank you, my Lord. I dedicate everything of mine to you.
“Judah.”
– Yes, Lord.
I commanded her, who had been reborn as an angel of Deus.
“As your one and only master, I command you.”
In this situation, Mahomet, still confused by the shock of the ‘Unique Realm’ being partially destroyed, was struggling within her body, or rather, within the ‘Chaos.’
If Judah hadn’t been here, I wouldn’t have had any way to overcome her.
But with my faithful Judah by my side, the story changes.
“Defeat evil.”
– Yes, my Lord. Everything is according to your will.
Completing that statement, Judah stood before ‘Chaos.’
– Huh! You lowly newborn god!
Judah revealed herself and reacted to ‘Chaos.’
KWA-AANG!
‘Chaos’ was struck down by Judah’s blow, quickly propelled back against the remaining surface of the realm.
– Ugh!
Judah spread her arms wide with both hands stretched out.
WHOOOOOOOM!
– Come forth, the angels of the Lord!
As she called, a multitude of angels emerged beside her.
The Demon Lord Judah Iscariot, now purified by my grace, stood as the leader of the angels.
Though she was not a full-fledged god, each angel had little pieces of divinity.
Angels clad in the armor of the Word unsheathed their divine blades.
– Ha. You’re doing all sorts of things.
– Annihilate the Lord’s enemies.
As Judah pointed to ‘Chaos’ with her finger, angels soared upward.
Countless angels descended upon ‘Chaos.’
It was… such a beautiful sight.
– KRAAAAAAAAK!
‘Chaos’ fought back with everything, drawing as much divinity as possible, but was struck down by a critical blow and plummeted to the ground.
Then the angels shattered the divine barrier surrounding ‘Chaos.’
The divine wall that had enveloped ‘Chaos’ was stripped away.
– Lance of Longinus!
Judah, or rather Seraphim, formed a triangle with both her hands together.
KUUUUNG!
– As the Seraphim of the Lord, I declare!
Judah’s divine power gathered to form a colossal spear.
It was a massive lance, an object so grand it could only be called such.
– Be gone, evil!
The mighty lance began its descent.
It pierced directly into ‘Chaos.’
KWA-AANG!
An overwhelming battle.
This was the power of the Seraphim.
They toyed with other gods, overwhelming them.
The Seraphim turned around to look at me.
– Lord. I have completed the command.
After resolving the issue of ‘Chaos’ and facing her again, a complicated feeling surged within me.
She had originally moved for my sake.
I met her for the first time in the Academy and then again in Debea.
She followed me all the way to the Nova Empire after forsaking everything in the Calandra Empire to follow me.
She had come to fulfill her dream initially, but gradually developed a sincere attachment to me and became my disciple.
However, due to Deus, she had unintentionally betrayed me and stabbed me.
She had committed no wrong.
It was Deus who had manipulated her under the influence of the scriptures.
Because of that, she was annihilated and treated as the traitorous Demon Lord among the continent’s inhabitants, becoming synonymous with evil.
Though she resurrected again beyond a hundred years, she was regarded as evil with no fault of her own.
A sense of guilt washed over me.
Especially since she was looking at me with sparkling, puppy-like eyes, seemingly begging for compliments.
“Well done, my angel.”
– Aah.
Her eyes went soft as if she might faint.
Well.
Despite the long journey back…
Judah has returned, and the issues with Mahomet and ‘Chaos’ seem to have been resolved?
Is it finally all over?
WHOOOOOOOM!
Suddenly, the air around us grew heavy.
– Th-this is…
Judah looked shocked.
Divine power gathered in the location where the Lance of Longinus had struck.
No way.
Is ‘Chaos’ still alive?
Even after taking that hit?
– Luke! It’s dangerous! We need to get out of here!
Deus, who had been nonchalant when ‘Chaos’ entered Mahomet, shouted in urgency.
KUUUUNG!
– You lowly beings!
The divine power of ‘Chaos’ coalesced, taking the shape of a colossal deity.
– To bring forth the main body! You lowly things!
The main body….
‘Chaos’’ true form?
Earlier, they had fought in Mahomet by possessing her, so…
– Because of you all, I used up all the divine power I had collected! I have to start all over with a plan that took millions of years!
The overwhelming pressure of divine power emanating from ‘Chaos’ was felt keenly.
This is not just a simple god’s power.
It matched the strength of the sole god Deus.
No.
This power…
I have felt it before.
Deus obsessing over becoming one with me.
The power felt from another Deus within her.
Could it be?
– I shall annihilate everything! Luke Christos!
KUO-OOOONG!
An enormous amount of divine power surged from ‘Chaos’, overwhelming us.
