449. Muddy water (1)
Even without the system messages that appeared before my eyes, I could guess that this was a very bad crisis situation.
“The achievement ‘Desperate Crisis’ has been achieved.”
“Exclusive authority #D-0007 [Increased reward] is automatically activated when the conditions are met.”
“The level of rewards obtained from achievements increases.”
“All abilities increase by 10.”
At this point, it’s impossible not to know.
The God of Proof was aware that the ‘War of the Gods’ was a reproduction of past records by the Tower of Trials.
Otherwise, a story like the one just couldn’t come out, so it’s hard to vaguely deny that it’s not true.
‘… … Could it be that you found out information about the Tower of Trials or me?’
In response, I looked at the God of Proof as if nothing had happened, and quickly thought over and over in my head.
‘… … no. It can’t be like that. If the God of Proof had clearly discovered the Tower of Trials or my identity, he wouldn’t have acted like that. ‘It’s still just a guess, not a certainty.’
What they were asking me was why I was treating him as if I had known him for a long time.
‘Seeing as he doesn’t blatantly mention the Tower of Trials or my purpose like the God of Time, it doesn’t mean he’s noticed that much.’
If so, there is still room to resolve the suspicions.
“It’s hard to understand what you mean.”
As it was, I frowned and spoke as if it was difficult to understand.
“Don’t you already know what kind of relationship you have with me? We met for the first time when we came to the War of the Gods for unknown reasons. There’s no need to explain that again… … .”
However, just for a moment.
“The God of Proof shakes his head and answers.”
[ no. I’m not talking about the first time we met after entering the War of the Gods. Rather, it’s the essential story that you and I already know. Anecdotes that you know but I don’t. Maybe it has something to do with the secrets you’re hiding. ]
The God of Proof continued speaking as if what he said did not resolve even the slightest doubt.
[For example, the War of the Gods is something that no one can enter because of the divine confrontation world, so how did they come in? How on earth did they come in? Even though they had a high hierarchy of divinity among the ancient deities who can be called the lords of the universe, their names are not even known. I wonder why an ancient god like you treats me with such courtesy, even though I am only a high-ranking god… … . ]
“It’s a misunderstanding. How I got into the War of the Gods is something I’m also curious about. Well, it is true that he has a high level of strength even among the ancient gods that exist in this universe, but it doesn’t make sense if he has kept his power hidden, right?”
[ okay? In my own way, I have seen a lot of ancient gods as well as higher-level gods and formal gods… … . I have never seen anyone like you hide the fact that they have become an ancient god, or show such courtesy to someone lower in the hierarchy of divinity than themselves. ]
“Ever since I was just a mortal, I have tended to treat others with the bare minimum of courtesy.”
[ hmm. If you remember even a part of the actions you have shown so far in the War of the Gods, it would be difficult to say such a thing, even if it was a lie, unless your conscience broke out… … . It’s fascinating. ]
“… … .”
It stung.
In fact, I have never shown such a good side to others in the war of gods.
Well, that’s not what this side wanted, but the other side committed an unexpected action(?) that led to an armed conflict, so there should be room for an excuse.
However, despite this, I could not continue my excuses until I heard what the god of proof said next time.
[Let me ask you one more thing. ]
That’s right… … .
[ Let’s pretend that everything you said was real and not fake. Let’s say that meeting me at the War of the Gods was our first encounter. What if all of this is just a coincidence and you are an ancient god who has existed from the beginning and had nothing to do with me? ]
Accordingly, the moment when the God of Proof had an emotion close to certainty in his eyes.
“I hope that the God of Proof will tell you that if you have anything more to say, just say it.”
[ … … Why on earth does the lingering scent of the holy relic I created remain in you? ]
… … I couldn’t even think about anything anymore, my mind went blank and my thoughts stopped.
***
accident stop.
All the thoughts I had had so far about how to make excuses to the god of proof became meaningless.
In response, I tried my best to clear my completely white head, try to move my thoughts again, and continue my thoughts.
‘Relic?’
Doesn’t that mean only one thing?
‘Could it be that I have traces of the holy relic ‘Black Mirror of Purity (SSS+)’?’
God of epiphyte.
Not long ago, I remembered the ancient deity that I killed for the first time while carrying out the punishment request given by the Pantheon in lieu of the 27th floor trial at the Tower of Trials.
At that time, in order to push the god of birth to its limit, he activated the sacred <Fighting Spirit> in an overlapping manner, demonstrating movements that reached the speed of light itself, and at the same time used the power to seal the opponent’s and his own divinity.
‘shit… … .’
When I realized that it was the relic ‘Black Mirror of Purity (SSS+)’, I couldn’t help but curse inwardly.
‘There are still traces of using the relic ‘Black Mirror of Purity (SSS+)’ on me?’
If I still have traces of using the sacred relic ‘Black Mirror of Purity (SSS+)’, wouldn’t it be meaningless to deny what they said?
‘… … Is it real? Or is it a bluff?’
step… … .
This means that lying does not work under the premise that everything the God of Proof says is true.
In our opinion, it would not be easy to read traces of sacred relics, as the God of Proof said.
‘… … In any case, there is no benefit in admitting it right here and there.’
Even if they read traces of a holy relic from me, there is no need to admit it.
“It’s a misunderstanding. The lingering scent of a holy relic? I wonder if I felt something wrong… … .”
[ hmm. is it? That’s a strange-looking misunderstanding. However, I see traces of a holy relic on you. ]
“Well, I think that’s a matter for the God of Proof to think about on his own. “I don’t really have anything to do with it.”
[ Right… … . ]
As if he didn’t think that the God of Proof would also openly admit it, he nodded and took something out of his pocket.
[It’s a slim possibility… … . Well, as you said, it could be a coincidence that the reverberation of the holy relic is flowing out. There are quite a few strange things that happen on one planet, but wouldn’t it be amazing to see an ancient deity that is rare even in the entire universe? ]
and.
[However, what if the reverberation of the holy relics is felt as strongly as it is now even across the entire universe, and it is a heterogeneous situation where only two holy relics can be felt? ]
chuck.

Accordingly, the moment when the god of proof took something out of his bosom and showed it to him.
“… … .”
I had no choice but to realize that no matter how untrue this was, it would be meaningless.
‘… … Yes, if that exists, I can understand why you expressed so much doubt about me.’
It’s no different… … .
‘Mirror of Faith.’
The relic ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ was reflected in the field of view.
The relic ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’, given by the God of Proof that was previously encountered at the Tower of Trials, would have become the relic ‘Black Mirror of Purity’.
There was no way he didn’t know what the relic ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ in front of him looked like, and its mere presence was enough to understand the situation.
“The God of Proof looks at you and smiles bitterly.”
[ … … Right. I don’t need to tell you anymore that it’s not true. Seeing as you can no longer hide your confusion, it seems like the answer has already been found. ]
Is that why?
[Actually, even if I didn’t ask you, I already understood it to some extent just from what you said, whether it was a prophecy from the God of Time or a guess. ]
The God of Proof spoke in a blurred voice, as if he was somehow reminiscing about the distant past.
[I wonder why… … . I didn’t even want to realize what the truth was. It was hard. The day will come when we will realize and accept the truth. The moments in life that I still remember vividly when I close my eyes were a process of proof for me. It was hard to dismiss it as fake. So I pretended not to know. I suppressed my doubts so they wouldn’t surface. ]
He continued speaking with his eyes closed.
[At that time, when I felt the reverberation of the holy relic from you during our first meeting, I thought I too was mistaken. however… … . As time passed and you politely asked me questions, her suspicions grew to the point where she could not be suppressed. Even more so after talking with the God of Time. ]
“… … .”
[God of time. I don’t know if it was a prophecy or a guess from that old monster, but it seemed to refer to ‘someone’. I had been suppressing my suspicions, thinking that even that was fake and not true, but I couldn’t do that anymore. Your reaction upon hearing the story told by the God of Time was unusual. ]
“… … “Anyone who hears what the God of Time said cannot help but feel puzzled.”
[ Puzzled? well. Well, that could also be true. At that time, after hearing what the God of Time said, didn’t you feel puzzled and wonder, ‘How did he find out?’ In that case, it wouldn’t be a lie to say that you felt puzzled, as you said. ]
“… … I don’t know why I have to be misunderstood like this. Isn’t it possible that the God of Creation, the God of Law, and the God of Miracles may also be watching here? “I am worried that what the God of Proof is guessing will be known as fact even though it is not true.”
Can not help it.
Right now, the headquarters of this order camp is no different from a part of the sacred realm created by the God of Creation, the God of Law, and the God of Miracles.
Considering that I said earlier that the unique abilities of the sacred realm are also applied to the ‘Divine Confrontation Realm’, which is the means of restraint in establishing the war of the gods, the possibility that the story being told here may be eavesdropped cannot be ruled out.
[Probably not. ]
But… … .
[Remember? Earlier, when I said you were going to the God of Creation within, you said there was work to be done. Probably, those fools have no idea what’s going on here. ]
The God of Proof calmly spoke as if this was a problem that had already been considered.
[ … … So, answer now. ]
“… … .”
[ … … What kind of relationship did you have with me? ]
“… … Well, that’s a difficult question to answer casually.”
Can’t hide it.
The God of Proof standing in front of me has already figured out who I am.
Even if this side insists that it is not true, there is no way that side will believe it without any hesitation.
“You are a benefactor.”
Therefore, I answered.
“I don’t know why, but since I was just a mortal, the God of Proof favored me and helped me in many ways.”
Currently, as the God of Proof said, the divine power spread by the God of Proof is stuck like a thin film within the main camp of the orderly camp.
“The relic I have is also in a similar vein, given to me by the God of Proof to prepare for what will happen in the future.”
Then, I decided that I would no longer be able to hear the God of Creation, the God of Law, or the God of Miracles coming out of this place, and I neatly admitted it.
“The God of Proof is satisfied.”
[ … … Right. It means that I have shown my favor to a being like you since you were mortal. Is that why you showed me such courtesy? I understand. ]
The God of Proof spoke with his eyes still closed as if he were regretful.
[ … … okay. I understand. Anyway. Now, you can no longer run away from the facts like you used to. ]
Understanding the facts is difficult.
[ … … This wasn’t the real world, and I wasn’t real, I was fake. ]
Understanding and accepting that I am not real but fake is impossible without going crazy.
[ … … The fact that he gained the concept of divinity <proof> after not stopping his struggle for proof for a thousand years, and the honor of being the support of those who have numerous believers and the will to move forward, the War of the Gods Is the decision to prevent it from leading to a terrible ending in the end just a lie and not the real thing? ]
Is that why?
[ … … . ]
The God of Proof became silent after recognizing that he was a being created by the Tower of Trials.
It was almost as if he was trying to think about what he should do.
So, I waited until the god of proof calmed down.
If they end up hostile to me after thinking about it, I can go and kill them then.
“… … .”
Time passed like that.
“The God of Proof is looking at you.”
[ … … Thank you. ]
After about ten minutes had passed, the God of Proof opened his eyes and spoke expressionlessly.
[ … … Thanks to you, I feel like I have finally decided what to do. ]
and.
[ Even if everything is fake and not real, and it’s just someone’s dream, I just do what I have to do. ]
It was then.
Kwazijic!
[The path I have chosen is to give strength to those who move forward and prove themselves… … . ]
Suddenly, the God of Proof thrust his left hand into his chest and pulled out something containing vast divine power.
Sigh-!
[Just as I did what I had to do for you in the real world, I have to do what I had to do for you in the fake world. ]
Next moment.
Hahahahahaha!
In the blink of an eye, the God of Proof struck the relic ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ with something imbued with vast divine power.
Coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo coo!!
At that moment, the relic ‘Mirror of Faith (SSS-)’ changed as it came into contact with something resembling divine power itself held in the left hand of the God of Proof.
“… … “Even if everything is just a dream, a handful of sand that will one day scatter, you can’t turn your attention away from what needs to be done.”
The God of Proof no longer used his divine voice.
chuck.
“It’s my job to give opportunities to those who have the will and qualifications to move forward… … .”
no.
It was unusable.
… … That’s right, the concept of divinity itself that he had has escaped to the outside and has been converted into a single substance.
chuck.
“… … “Hand it to me.”
It was simple.
“… … That will help make the seeds of ascension possessed by the God of Transcendence and Death bloom.”
… … It was a relic that was no different from a relic forged from one life, containing the power itself that the God of Proof had built up as a higher god.
