Legend of the Three Madnesses (End)

　　Ryota endured the pain caused by the wound, and said slowly: "The Ming Hong sword was forged by a god, as long as it is completely unleashed, I can use the power of god for a short time. I will use this power to exterminate the ghosts of this world in one fell swoop, and help you gather soul power, including the Extinct Star Cluster, and I will try to kill as many as possible. But..."

　　After a pause, Ryota lowered his voice: "The original owner of the divinity has disappeared. Originally, divinity would also disappear, but the Ming Hong Sword sealed its power so it always existed in weapon form. Once I completely release the power of the Ming Hong Sword, the divinity will lose its seal and disappear quickly."

　　Ryota looked into Kurumi's eyes, advising or imploring: "So... Promise me, Kurumi, you must go back in time and save Ming Hong. The principle of [Return of Eternal Tribulation] has the speciality that even gods can return. As long as you trigger this power again, everything can return to the point when you changed history, and then start over, even the lost godhead can be restored."

Kurumi was stunned.

　　In order to help her create opportunities, Ryota actually didn't hesitate to destroy the Ming Hong Sword?

　　Destroy what he values the most?

　　This was literally betting everything on her.

　　This trust is too heavy.

　　"I..."

　　Kurumi had completely lost her usual firmness: "I can't do it, what if it fails, Ryota, I can't…"

　　"I believe you."

　　"But..."

　　"Don't worry, you can do it."

　　Ryota touched Kurumi's head, continued to smile and said: "Aren't you a Time Spirit? It's easy for you to change the time."

　　"..."

　　The familiar title made Kurumi dumbfounded. Memories flooded back, and she fell silent.

　　Ryota in the last world must have believed in her the same way in the last moment, right?

　　Kurumi did not argue anything.

　　Ryota had reached this point, risking everything on herself. If she didn't bring up her courage, all her efforts would be in vain.

　　Can't... can't help but fulfill Ryota's trust again!

　　"I'll start."

　　Seeing Kurumi stop arguing, Ryota barely supported his body, and the Ming Hong Sword appeared in his hand.

　　"Wait a moment." Kurumi suddenly stopped him.

　　Ryota threw a confused look.

　　After hesitating for a few seconds, Kurumi finally gritted her teeth and dispelled the doubts she had been having all along: "Ryota, when I was at the villa that day, I asked a question, but you never answered me."

　　She asked another question: "Why did the collision between the evil god's 'reason' in the Red Lotus Realm and [Return of Eternal Tribulation] last for 10 years?"

　　"..." Ryota fell silent.

　　Kurumi then asked: "Shouldn't it be after I falsified history 10 years ago, and then it was decided and finished? If the collision continues like this, more and more monsters from the old era will be attracted and stare at this world, won't they?"

　　"..."

　　Ryota remained silent.

　　Seeing him avoid the question again, Kurumi suddenly understood.

　　"Is that so... Sure enough... It's really like this, hehehe..."

She was suddenly showing a smile that looked a bit pitiful.

　　She finally knows everything, and finally knows why Ryota is silent.

　　"Don't think too much, go back in time and tell me everything."

　　Ryota suddenly reminded: "I believe in you, and you also believe in me. No matter how history changes, I will save the future of this world, and this will never change. "

　　"Um..."

　　Kurumi restrained her expression a bit and did not bring up the matter any further.

　　Ryota raised the Ming Hong Sword in his hand.

　　Explosion...!

　　There was another explosion outside.

　　"The monster hasn't left yet..."

　　Ryota glanced at his chest, grinned and said: "Exactly, this hole must be returned to him."

　　Ming Hong's sword began to emit a dazzling red light.

　　Kurumi stared intently at Ryota, not wanting to miss a minute. Because after this time, she would never see him again.

　　"Correct." Ryota suddenly pointed his finger at the position of his cheek, and apologized: "Sorry, I interfered with you before, actually, I lied to you with those words..."

　　"I know, I always knew." Kurumi's voice trembled slightly: "No… no one knows you better than I do."

　　Hearing this, Ryota smiled. It is enough for a person to remember that he exists.

　　Explosion!

　　An impact that seemed to open up a world erupted in his soul.

　　From the Ming Hong Sword, divine power was released.

　　His thoughts rushed out in an instant.

　　The impact was proportional to the expansion of the universe.

　　Ryota felt his soul being torn apart.

　　At this time, he was "flowing out". But at the same time, he was also dying. He had no desire to match divinity.

　　When the principle of "all-embracing great love" in divinity invaded him, it directly caused the collapse of his soul.

　　The divinity of other gods is not so easy to use.

　　However, before his soul completely collapsed, he got a new memory from divinity.

　　"It turns out... that's what happened..."

　　Ryota suddenly showed an enlightened expression. Then look at Kurumi:

　　"Please say one word to the old me—my time is running out. Also, don't despair anymore."

　　After speaking, he turned his gaze upwards. His gaze passed through the crumbling ruins, and he saw the seven evil gods who had come to this world one by one.

　　The soul decay is accelerating. Ryota predicts his own death, time is limited.

　　He shook the ruins above his head in an instant, and divine power covered the entire earth.

　　Ghosts, Evil Spirits, Memes, Rules... with just a breath, all the ghosts in the world were destroyed by divine power.

　　Pure soul power continued to surge across space and flow into Kurumi's left eye.

　　Ryota spat out a mouthful of blood, the pain caused by the tearing of the soul made his consciousness gradually blur until it almost disappeared.

　　Gotta hurry!

　　Before he could even say goodbye, he flew into the sky and appeared in space in an instant.

　　The immense power within the heart was pouring out, but with the gradual collapse of the soul and divinity, this power became less and less.

　　Ryota didn't delay any longer, looked at the main star of the Extinct Star Cluster, and made his move!

　　He uses the ultimate attack "Bridge of Rage". In an instant, the heat that opened up the universe was created. Under the maintenance of this heat, every elementary particle in a large part of the universe has turned into a black hole.

　　The gravitational force of all the black holes gathered together, was directed by him, and was cut with the sword in his hand.

　　The true Blade of Heavenly Abyss!

　　The resulting impact could stir up a sea of stars.

　　The main star and over fifty substars of the Extinct Star Cluster disappeared in less than an instant.

　　Convergent gravitational forces warp spacetime.

　　The slash instantly crossed time and space, erasing the record of the Extinct Star Cluster's existence until several decades ago.

　　These monsters from day one weren't covered by [Return of Eternal Tribulation], and even if history changed, they wouldn't be resurrected.

　　"Not enough... there are six more..."

　　Ryota's vision is blurry, and he can only rely on his emotional perception to spot enemies.

　　The divine power he gave off opened a hole in the universe, or singularity.

　　Actively falling into the pit, Ryota enters a super-dimensional space. There, he felt the lingering breath of the evil god.

　　"Bastard, it's time for us to settle scores!!"

　　In the final reprisal, Ryota roared loudly.

　　...

　　The Extinct Star Cluster disappeared. But a new evil god descended through the rift in the universe.

　　Kurumi looked into the distance, and once again saw a sight so shocking that she was unable to speak.

　　The evil god above natural disasters.

Immediately, she knelt on the ground and cried. If Ryota was still alive, he would definitely destroy all the evil gods, and not let anyone come.

　　The scene before her had already shown that the defense of this world had disappeared forever.

　　Lose again.

　　She also lost Ryota again.

　　"Worrying for others to the end... it really is the same..."

　　Recalling the question a moment ago, Kurumi felt a pain in her heart.

　　Ryota never answered why the clash and conflict between the two "reasons" would last for 10 years.

　　But she had already guessed the answer.

　　After history was tampered with 10 years ago, two "reasons" begin to collide, fighting over the two souls he saved.

　　As a result, her father, who was supposed to survive with her mother, died in a supernatural event.

　　Even if it's [Return of Eternal Tribulation], it won't be able to completely affect the evil god in the Crimson Lotus Realm.

　　In this situation, as long as the mother is still in the world, the battle of the evil gods will not end, and this universe is like a bright beacon in the boundless world because of the clash of "reasons".

　　So the Seven Evil Gods on the first day were found here one after another.

　　The monsters in the past were more than them.

　　As long as the conflict of "reasons" doesn't end, this world will soon usher in destruction again, and the only way to save the world is to erase the original modifications and return everything to its original state.

　　This is exactly what Ryota avoided her.

　　Ryota, to let her escape the cruel truth, secretly takes on all the burdens and puts her future on the line.

　　"Very stupid..."

　　Kurumi burst into tears. Holding her aching heart, she slowly stood up.

　　She made the hardest decision in her heart.

　　Look up at the sky.

　　The two evil gods who survived Ryota started showing hatred towards the world.

　　"hissing..."

　　The motion of lifting her head tugged at her wound, Kurumi looked down at her stomach, the blood already stained her dress red.

　　Can't fall...

　　Never fall here!

　　Kurumi quickly activated the domain, the clock in her left eye started to turn, and her soul force was consumed violently.

　　Finally, the scene in front of her changed.

　　She returns to the past.

　　Not 1 year ago.

　　Instead, go back in time 10 years ago.

　　(Time is running out, I must hurry...!)

　　Kurumi clutched the wound in her stomach. Under a distorted expression, she forced herself to move quickly.

　　Urban roadscapes on both sides continued to decline.

　　Kurumi used the domain to speed up time, and rushed to her destination at the fastest speed. However, when she was about to get closer to where the ghost had occurred, she suddenly froze.

　　In front of the field of vision, a girl's back appeared.

　　Beautiful dress, flowing black hair, headdress decorated with flower petals...

　　That familiar outfit...

　　That is the past! ?

　　Notes when history is tampered with don't disappear right away?

　　Suppressing the astonishment in her heart, Kurumi hurriedly chased after her and shouted anxiously:

　　"Stop!"

　　"Kurumi, stop it!"

　　"You will kill everyone!"

　　A familiar voice made the girl rushing forward freeze.

　　Looking back, she was even more stunned when she saw a face that looked like a mirror.

　　But the girl reacted quickly and continued to run forward.

　　Only the voice came back: "Let's talk later, I'm in a hurry!"

　　"You stop!"

　　Kurumi not only refused to listen to the persuasion, but also quickened her speed, and the anxiety in her heart became heavier.

　　Mobilizing her remaining soul force, she instantly launched a domain and used time-stopping power, intending to stop the opponent.

　　"You bastard… what are you doing!?"

　　The girl's panic was heard.

　　The domains of the two started, the same rules eroded each other and developed into a war of attrition for soul power.

　　"Stop ...!"

　　Kurumi clutched at the severe pain in her stomach, almost screaming, squeezing every drop of soul force in her soul.

　　Both can stay in the past, continuing to shrink.

　　At this time, a ghost soul power fluctuation suddenly came from the distance.

　　The trapped girl immediately became desperate and roared hysterically and desperately: "Get out of here!!!"

　　Kurumi was unmoved. She gritted her teeth tightly, endured the pain, and prevented the destruction that shouldn't exist. Finally, the time limit for the two ran out.

　　One second before disappearing, she only managed to say one sentence...

　　"Mom, forgive me..."
