Test
Chapter 359.2. Shin
"Won't lose to anyone, and won't fear death. And so, I even created fake memories for Shin so that no one could detect it. It was supposed to go as planned."
"Well, thanks to that, I can now use [Magic Break] to gradually break down the world's boundaries. It was quite amusing to see you gleefully and confidently using it without even knowing its true effects."
"The world's boundaries? ... What's that? I haven't heard of it."
"That's natural. After all, I haven't explained it. If I didn't break down the world's boundaries, I couldn't retrieve the power I left in Niflheim."
Kanna Yamato gritted his teeth against Spatial Witch, who mocked him with a sneer, his face filled with killing intent, exuding a pressure that could physically kill just with his gaze.
"Did you deceive me? Then why did you act according to our deal before the loop?"
Kanna Yamato has engaged in various transactions as a Duke with various opponents. That's why he trusted the transaction because Spatial Witch acted according to the agreement last time.
However, Spatial Witch, without stopping her mockery, informs Kanna Yamato,
"Hehehe, I'm sorry, Kanna Yamato. I told a little lie. As you know, I created Shin and your spare body using the power of the Sacred Artifact Draupnir, which creates gold. And I improved it by mixing in Loki's remains, manipulating the Golden Threads to create anybody I desired."
While stroking the golden bracelet embedded in the arm of the sleeping boy with her index finger, she smirks mysteriously.
"During that process, I also created the memories of Shin and the others. Actually, I manipulated the memories of the original body as well. In simple terms, I tampered with your memories."
"...How did you tamper with my memories?"
"Do you think this is your first loop? Do you think I moved to return to the original fate? Thank you for becoming Ymir."
Sticking out her tongue, Spatial Witch slightly lowers her head mockingly.
"In fact, I've been through countless loops. The world's boundaries were shattered, and this loop, in which the reincarnators' souls entered, became the end."
"W-What? Countless loops!?"
To the shocking statement, Kanna Yamato swallowed his breath and choked on his words. With an expression of astonishment, he tries to guess why she did such a thing.
"You went through loops to break the world's boundaries?"
"Yes. With each repeated loop, the boundaries trembled, and I planned to break them with [Magic Break]."
Spatial Witch shakes her head, showing a tired expression, shrugging her shoulders.
"However, contrary to expectations, [Magic Break] had only the power to pierce rocks like raindrops. It was really tiring. Despite pouring most of my power at the time, I only had the power of trash. Well, it worked out thanks to my patience."
With a proud laugh, Spatial Witch's words finally make Kanna Yamato glare.
"Trash? My [Magic Break] is trash?"
Twisting his face with anger, Kanna Yamato glares at Spatial Witch, who waves her hand in mockery.
"Exactly. However, I had another purpose, so it's okay. That also took some time, though."
"Purpose? Immortality, perhaps?"
"Oh my, human thinking is so simplistic, isn't it? But no, I'm not like you with such childish desires to become an Emperor."
Mocking Kanna Yamato's words, Spatial Witch points at Shin.
"I needed the powerful golden power to completely control this world. Amidst the infinite and delicate Golden Threads, I needed strong threads like pillars."
She pokes Shin's forehead and continues talking.
"Think of it like a cotton candy stick. Shin was necessary to gradually gather the Golden Threads within the loop. Collecting, collecting, it was necessary to create the gold piller."
Turning her face towards Kanna Yamato, she smirks like a crescent moon.
"In other words, Shin was the core, nothing more than a tool to gather threads. However, ordinary souls couldn't become the core, so 9 souls were needed. Originally, I planned to gather threads when defeating Ashtaroth, but it's sufficient without them."
To the point of being treated as a tool, not even as a human, Kanna Yamato finally breaks through the limits of his anger.
"A...a tool? You dare to treat me as a tool! Raaaar!"
With a roar of anger, Kanna Yamato's body is enveloped in a golden aura, and an immense mana wave spreads like a storm around him.
"This body is adjusted to its maximum power for the decisive battle with Takano Miu! Treating me like a tool, pay with your life!"
"Hehehe, Ahahaha! Indeed, it's an extraordinary power for a human. I can sense it just from the raging mana power."
Her hood is blown away by the mana storm, revealing the face of a beautiful yet sinister woman with an air of malice. Truly enjoying herself, Spatial Witch laughs heartily and extends her palm towards Godan Yamato.
"In the name of Helheim, human, in the face of the power difference with a God, you shall learn your place."
And thus, the two begin their battle.
