Chapter 280: Mainly Because My Hands Were Itching

Aiwass is the guardian angel summoned by Aleister.

Unlike the angels described in the Bible, Aiwass exists at the very bottom of the world of pure physical laws.

Just by moving a finger, it possesses the power to destroy a world.

So takumi was deeply curious about it.

A pure embodiment of physical laws—shouldn't it be thoroughly researched?

Saten Ruiko: [Great!] [Let me know when you arrive.] [I've been staying with Misaka Mikoto recently!]

Saten Ruiko felt relieved when takumi agreed.

That should resolve things.

Shiroyasha: [I'm coming too!!] [I'm really interested in your world!!]

Shiroyasha joined in.

She had decided to head over for a look.

Of all the worlds in the group, few truly piqued her interest,

but the Toaru (Raildex) world was one of them.

Since takumi was going, she might as well tag along.

She'd just have Izayoi send her—no need for points!

Seeing this, Saten Ruiko hesitated but agreed.

Saten Ruiko: [Alright then, Shiroyasha-sama can come too.]

If Shiroyasha wanted to come, what could she do?

She had no choice but to accept it.

Though honestly, it might be a good thing—

with two powerhouses around, there shouldn't be any problems.

Worst case scenario? Run.

Pack up and escape to takumi's world!

With just a few exchanges, everyone in the chat group made their decisions.

Then they went back to their own tasks.

Takumi had finished researching the Holy Grail.

Now all that remained was to see what would happen when the worlds fused.

If the Holy Grail could indeed carry over the laws from other worlds,

then things would get very interesting.

So takumi was quite excited.

Time passed quickly, and three days later, the world fusion began.

At the very moment fusion started, takumi sensed it.

Not only takumi—the War God sensed the change as well.

"Has it started?"

Sensing the beginning of the fusion, the War God grew excited.

He rose from his throne and vanished on the spot.

Since the worlds were fusing, he figured there'd be no problem checking things out early.

As he disappeared, takumi immediately sensed it.

takumi: [@Shiroyasha, how's your side?] [The fusion has started here. The War God already ran off.]

Takumi set down his cup and asked about Shiroyasha's status.

If things had started for him, how about her?

Shiroyasha: [Everything's smooth!] [The War God is coming? I'll go greet him!!]

With that message, Shiroyasha vanished from the group.

She was curious about the War God. If he'd arrived, how could she not spar with him?

He came all this way, after all.

Besides, she would eventually take him to Little Garden anyway.

So they'd better fight first.

Seeing her message, takumi sighed—

There they go fighting again.

"Lord takumi!"

Just as he was speechless, Azriel rushed in.

She had accepted Shiroyasha as her new master,

and they were all aware that takumi would be taking them to his world.

They'd also noticed the signs of world fusion.

Not just them—probably other races had sensed it too.

So she came to ask takumi what they should do.

"What is it, Azriel?"

Takumi looked at her in confusion.

"The worlds are starting to fuse. What should we do?"

"Do we just wait?"

There was some anticipation in her eyes.

Should they prepare for battle?

Hearing her, takumi took out the Holy Grail.

"Just wait."

"Wait until the fusion is complete."

"Next, I'll need to inform this world's people as well."

With that, takumi sprang into action.

Through the Holy Grail, he broadcast the news of the fusion,

informing everyone in the world.

Upon receiving the announcement, many people were stunned.

Their world was merging with others?

Everyone was suddenly interested.

Even the gods began to move.

They had to go check out the excitement—

maybe meet some powerful folks from other worlds.

And leaving this world would mean no more restrictive laws, right?

In no time, people across the world sprang into action.

After handling that, takumi mused aloud:

"Don't panic, everyone."

"I'll store you all in my space for now."

"I'm packaging all of Avant together."

Since the fusion had begun, it was time for takumi to return to the other side.

Hearing him, Azriel was momentarily stunned, but then nodded.

"Understood, Lord takumi!!"

Avant, after all, was a phantasmal species.

The Skywing race had built their nation upon it.

It was also a colossal war fortress.

Since Artosh gave the Skywing race to takumi,

naturally all of this came with it.

After explaining things to Azriel,

takumi began taking action.

Aside from packaging the Skywing race,

he also had to summon all the Ex-Machina.

Takumi flew above Avant—

and opened a massive spatial rift, swallowing Avant whole.

The Skywing race, unaware of what was happening,

watched in bewilderment.

But Azriel's voice soon rang out.

"Everyone stay calm, nya~."

"Lord takumi is relocating us all, nya~."

Upon hearing her, they lowered their guard.

Elsewhere, Jibril looked up from her reading, eyes gleaming.

"It's finally starting?"

This was going to be great.

She was quite looking forward to going to takumi's world.

Of course, what she most anticipated was visiting Little Garden.

A stage filled with gods and buddhas—

surely it held many treasures!

...

Takumi stuffed all of Avant into his Imaginary Space.

Once done, he gave the order to the Ex-Machina.

Soon, one by one, they appeared around him—

led by Einsie.

"All Ex-Machina are assembled."

With a calm expression, Einsie reported to takumi.

Hearing this, takumi nodded.

"Good."

"Then proceed inside."

He gestured for them to enter the Imaginary Space.

The Ex-Machina obeyed at once.

In moments, every last one of them vanished from the world.

With that done, takumi closed the space—

and began his return to the Konosuba side.

The gods of this world had all charged in—

and likely, battles were imminent.

So takumi figured it best to return.

The laws of the other world—

would they be enough to restrain these beings?

If not, then takumi would have to "reason" with them properly.

He'd fought the War God,

but the other gods? Not yet.

His hands were itching!
