I Reincarnated as a Villain of an RPG, But I Want to Survive - CH 100

100　Wisdom is power

Strong……!?

The original hero is strong!?

.

He’s not just simply strong, he is strong enough to push back holy beast aura with holy wisdom aura

.

Aren’t holy wisdom aura and beast aura equal, and both ranked lower than holy beast aura?

.

That kind of reasoning doesn’t make sense to him

Since he is a being from the extremely early game, nothing can be used as a standard so the power level is often broken

.

Extremely broken abilities born from the dawn of the early stage of the series

That’s the original hero (like gen 1 pokemon has some broken stuff)

.

Even if the setting was set up properly and it was said that 『He’s strong』, that strength is unbelievable

It feels like he is the type who would say  『Even if there are one thousands of us, our training are different! Our vitality are different! Our determination are different! 』(1)

He can overturn the difference in number in an instant

.

「This is bad……!?」

.

While somehow stopping my body from flying, I looked at hero Kares

.

I may not be able to win against him

He is another kind of absurdity, like Hakukyoku Tenko

.

Defeating evil in the name of justice

He is a slaughter machine pursuing only that

There is no story set for him, he pushed forward following his objective in the game

.

Even a character with many back stories and past won’t be able to defeat him

.

.

「Holy wisdom art <Chiseiken>」

「「「「「Gyaaaaaーーーーーーー!?」」」」」

.

The only technique he used is <Chiseiken>

With a simple, boring technique that only increases his power, he overwhelmed us, who can use various skills

.

Behind him is the god who govern death, Nodes

The perpetrator who brought back the hero Kares, who should have left the world in the distant past, to the present world

.

「Right, just keep exterminating and destroying」

.

He observes the battle while floating

.

「This is the correct path. In this era, all kinds of wars sweep through the world, many lives die and ascend to heaven. We are making a new history」

.

We can’t do anything against the sword swung by hero Kares

We were kicked around one-sidedly

.

As if to say “it’s completely natural that evil would be defeated by justice”

.

Originally, we should have been trampled by hero Sero of this era

Right now, we are being trampled by the first hero, as if the history is being corrected since it didn’t happen

.

「Don’t……! Don’t joke with us……!」

.

Grey Ryuuga stands up

He also can’t stand upright against the violently blowing power of <Chiseiken>

.

「Beast magic <Dragon death crush>!!」(2)

.

The killer technique released in desperation is easily offset but the hero’s sword

Even the empire’s strongest man can’t get a solid hit in

.

Even so……

.

「I don’t understand……! O god! I can’t understand what you said at all!」

「Hmm?」

「Why do you say we are evil!?」

.

The man who would eventually carry the empire on his back asks the god without any hesitation

.

「Is it because we invaded other countries by force!? But that is normal in the turbulent era, we would be invaded and destroyed by other countries unless we did so! We fought to the bitter end to survive! Are you saying it’s a sin!?」

「…………」

「Or are we evil because we borrowed beast god Beast’s power!? We relied on an evil god!? But we have already received the punishment for that! My father, the current emperor who touched the forbidden power to overcome the national crisis, has been tormented with pains for a long time now because of that!!」

「…………」

「There is no way you, who is also a god, can’t understand that! Are you saying we need to atone more!?」

.

The death god didn’t answer

.

Persuading a god with reasons without taking a step back

The current Grey Ryuuga is showing his qualities to be the next ruler

.

「Those are irrelevant」

.

Ah, he answered

.

「My role is to continue the phenomenon called “death” without any hitch. I am not a god who carries other duties than that. Good or evil, judgment or execution, neither of them are my duties」

「Then why do you intrude!? Our empire has overcome various wars and finally entered the era of peace! If the current empire is destroyed, the era will return to the time of wars, many lives will pointlessly vanish! Is that what you hope for!?」

「Exactly」

.

Grey Ryuuga was speechless as death god replied

Not just him, the other Twelve Apostles too

.

「What do you mean……!?」

「Are you saying that pointlessly killing people is what the god wishes!? You call yourself a god!?」

.

Getting angry is also human nature

However, the scale between human and god is different

.

「There are things that you human can’t see. For this era, at this stage, there should be a certain amount of death. Without it, the world will deviate from the path where the history should be. Protecting that and revising it to the correct history is my duty as a god」

「I don’t understand what you mean! What is the correct history!? Shouldn’t people living happily and prospering be a correct history!?」

「The history being right or wrong is irrelevant. If it’s deviated from the correct history, perhaps even more destruction will befall on you human. That shouldn’t be what you want either」

.

Death god Nodes looks at hero Kares……

.

「That’s why you all should die here」

.

No one can understand

The validity of death god Nodes’ words

.

For him, what important is whether the direction of the moving history is correct or not. Amount of human casualties is not a question from the start

That’s the viewpoint of a god

.

However……

……I understood

.

What he’s particular about, what he is afraid of

Only I, who reincarnated into this world, knew

.

「Is it my fault……!?」

.

I was born into this world, tried all possible means to avoid the ruined end and changed the future

Many people who should have died didn’t die, the war that should have occurred didn’t occur

.

That means the story of 『Beast Fantasy 4』, which this world was based on, has completely collapsed

.

Then what will happen?

To all the 『Beast Fantasy』 after 『4』?

.

With a big change of the ending of 『4』, the course of the future will change. Perhaps it will deviate from the future where 『5』『6』『7』 would continue

.

He descended to fix that?

.

Originally, the Behemoth empire should be destroyed, and it doesn’t exist in the next 『Beast Fantasy』 titles……。

Therefore, the empire must be destroyed

.

Death god Nodes and hero Kares are the amenders of that history

.

They came to return the history to the correct form!

.

「In the correct future, you all would die. For the world, you need to die. I, the god of death, will guarantee the tranquility of your souls」

『No way!!』

.

I release holy beast aura at full force

I jump at death god Nodes without caring

.

「Useless」

.

Hero Kares interrupted

I was blown away

.

『Shit!? How can holy wisdom aura surpass holy beast aura!?』

.

Fighting against enemies that transcends reasoning is really troublesome

.

Even so, I continue to attack

But all my attacks are blocked by the hero

.

『Hero, why!? Why did you come!?』

.

You should be in the world of 『1』! Why did you come uninvited to 『4』!?

The era where you should be has already ended!

.

Don’t just nonchalantly appear with the indulgence of death god!

.

『Holy beast wisdom ceremony <Sonezaki Shinjuu>!!』

「Holy wisdom art <Chiseiken>」

.

Although it’s my strongest attacking move, it can do nothing against that “simple is the best” hero

I was pushed back

.

「Hero! What’s your mission!? Is it to kill everyone related to beast god indiscriminately!?」

.

That’s wrong!

.

「What you should do is to protect innocent people from injustice violence! What you are doing is not the act of a hero! Wake up, hero!!!」
