The ceremony ended, and honestly, I don't know where I'm heading.
I'm just following a group of people.
Although this makes me look like a stalker, but I just don't know where to go! The looks from the girls make me very, very nervous! And I can't stop sweating!
I never... could have these kinds of experiences...
But there's nothing to worry about; I always try to stay firm at all times...
Since I was working at the black company.
I devoted about half of my working life to doing overexploited jobs.
On the first day, I was nervous all the time, and later on, I was used as a puppet all the time...
These are memories I don't want to relive...
I remembered the time when I had to work long hours to support my little sister Hanae, Hikaru had to work in precarious and poorly paid jobs to be able to pay the rent and put food on the table.
Despite the difficulties, Hikaru always tried to maintain a positive attitude and never complained. Even when he fell seriously ill, he refused to miss work because he couldn't afford to lose a day's pay. It was thanks to his perseverance and dedication that he finally managed to get a job in a stable company.
But, even with a stable job, he still had to work overtime and do dirty jobs to be able to support his sister.
He often felt exhausted and overwhelmed by the responsibility, but he kept going because he had no other choice. Hikaru's life had been tough, but he never lost hope that someday things would get better...
"Apologize right now, earth plebeian!"
A shout came from the left hallway.
It was Alex.
The guy I met at the ceremony, Harold, is in a dogeza position.
Apologizing while the guy who shouted at him has his foot on him.
"Apologize right now, earth plebeian!" the noble shouted with disdain.
Alex looked at the noble, feeling anger and humiliation flooding his body.
"I'm really sorry, my lord. It won't happen again," he said quietly, feeling ashamed.
"Of course, it won't happen again!" the noble roared. "Earth plebeians like you don't have the ability to be polite. You don't even know how to behave in a ceremony."
Alex wanted to respond; he wanted to shout at the noble that he was wrong, but he held back. He knew that anything he said would only make the situation worse.
"You must know your place in society," the noble continued with a threatening voice. "Your place is inferior to ours, the nobles. And we won't tolerate an earth plebeian like you daring to defy us."
Alex gritted his teeth, feeling the knot in his throat. He wanted to run away, but he knew he couldn't. If he did, it would only worsen his situation.
"I recommend you apologize again and then leave, you're not welcome in our presence," the noble said with a malicious smile.
I wonder what happened between those two, but... do I have to intervene? It's not my problem, but I can't tolerate what I'm seeing.
"Please forgive me!"
"Shut up, these shoes are new, and an earth plebeian like you dirtied them!"
I see...
This noble is that kind of person, scum, an arrogant noble who contributes nothing to the country.
A noble who thinks he's at the top of everything, these kinds of people, I hate them.
They disgust me.
"You heard him, he apologized, now take your dirty foot off him."
In the end, I had to intervene.
I couldn't just stand there watching the first friend I made at the University being treated this way.
Now I'll see what I do with this guy.
He doesn't seem to have good magic attributes; if he resists, I'll go on the offensive.
"Who are you? Aren't you a noble? Don't you know what he did? For us nobles, it's a blasphemy by uneducated plebeians!"
Here we go, the monologue of any brainless idiot; this is why I hate nobles.
In light novels, this cliché was so overused that it ended up repulsing me.
Nobles who contribute nothing to the story, and what I hate, is happening to me right now, but for me...
"For me, what's blasphemy is treating another person like that, regardless of their origin or social status. I won't tolerate this attitude in my presence," I said as I approached the noble with a cold and determined look.
The noble seemed surprised by my response, but he didn't let go of his arrogance.
"How dare you speak to me like that, plebeian? Don't you know who I am?" he said with a mocking smile.
"I know perfectly well; you're a noble without any real value, just relying on your social status to feel superior to others. But that doesn't mean you can treat other people like this, and I'm not a plebeian," I replied, maintaining my firm posture.
The noble seemed to get even angrier at my words.
"You damn idiot! I'm a noble!"
"Shut up... nobles this, nobles that, get a life. You're the one lacking education, idiot."
Ah, I couldn't help but insult him.
But, whoa! I vented with those words!
Anyway, I'm not afraid of anything.
"Idiot!"
Without hesitation, the noble casts a spell.
"Oh, Goddess who watches us from the heavens, give me strength to defeat the enemy, give us wisdom and energy, [Fire Art Theory 1: Phoenix]"
Idiot, it's a confined space!
The chant generated a fire tsunami covering the hallway.
But the spell this noble cast.
I can only say it's too weak, rank 2 spell? Is this the potential of nobles? Oh, but Alex is in danger...!
"Alex, run!" Dante shouted as he pushed his friend towards the exit.
"And what will you do, Dante?" Alex asked worried.
"I'll take care of the trash we have here," Dante said with determination.
Alex nodded and ran to inform a teacher, while Dante prepared for the attack.
"That's enough of your nonsense," Dante shouted with a serious and threatening tone. "Aren't you ashamed to treat someone like that?"
The noble was surprised by Dante's attitude, but he wasn't willing to give in.
"How dare you speak to me like that, plebeian? I'm a noble; I have the right to treat plebeians as I please!"
"The fact that you have a title doesn't give you the right to be cruel to others," Dante replied firmly. "And if you think your magic is enough to intimidate me, you're very wrong."
The noble cast another spell, but Dante was prepared.
He used his dark magic to create a protective barrier around him.
"Is that all you have?" Dante said with a challenging smile. "Don't make me laugh."
The noble was perplexed; he had never before faced someone with so much determination and skill, worse, he had never witnessed a user of dark magic.
"Pathetic..."
He dissipated his fire spell with a simple blow.
I would say that the spells of Alfred or any family member are more powerful than this.
He dissipated his fire spell with a simple exhale.
I would say that the spells of Alfred or any family member are more powerful than this.
I don't have to give the slightest effort to defend myself.
But what worried me are the people behind me.
I don't want them to get hurt.
"Is that all?"
"No... it can't be..."
The noble is left speechless after my defense.
"Bastard, I swear I'll humiliate you...! He-he... I'll tell my brother about this humiliation."
I question with desperation.
"Sure, do as you please. But before I go, I'll tell you one simple thing. If you mess with me or someone I care about, I'll kill you, no matter who you are, I'd kill the Gods themselves if possible."
My determination didn't waver; I wasn't planning to back down.
"Kuk... Bastard!"
Ah...
I think it's all over now, it was just a simple fight, but it's not a big deal.
But there's something that bothers me, and that's the looks, I feel... I feel chills...
"Thanks for saving me... This..."
Alex approaches me to thank me.
While looking at me with drooping ears like a scolded puppy...
How cute...! But... let's put that aside; he wants to tell me something important.
"Tell me, Alex, what is it you wanted to tell me."
"Sorry, but... what was your name?"
"Eh?"
Ouch, this hurts more than a stab.
The guy I just saved forgot my name... but it doesn't matter!
At work, they just called me X, "X-san," "X-kun."
God, I reached the point where I didn't care anymore.
"My name is Hika- Dante, Dante Bearelf."
"Uh... Nice to meet you, Dante Bearelf!"
Alex smiled with a relieved expression on his face.
"Thank you so much for saving me; I don't know what I would have done if you weren't here."
"No problem, I couldn't just stand there watching how they treated you. I'm new to the university, but I think it's important to defend friends."
"Yes, you're right. And speaking of the university, will you be in the same major as me?"
"Yes, I'll be in the magic major..."
Oh, how to tell him no... even wagging my tail with joy.
"Great! It's great to have someone else in the same major; I don't know many people here yet..."
[Congratulations... you got a friend.]
The voice I hadn't heard in a while resonated in my head again.
So, you appeared... Eh, I think the first time was in that incident, right? Well, not that I care, but your voice at that moment relaxed me; your voice is something sweet to listen to.
"Heavens, Dante~~ you make me blush~~ It's a pleasure to be in your mind and help you with everything you need."
Well, I don't know if I need your help right now. I just had a little fight with an arrogant noble.
[I know, I saw everything, but still, don't get too confident. There might be stronger enemies than that noble out there.]
Yes, I know. I can't let my guard down; I always have to be prepared for any eventuality. By the way, I haven't asked your name.
"Oh, excuse me, my name is... Delta, I am the beginning of the end."
... -5 weeks ago- ...
The archbishop kneels before Lizel, trembling with fear and excitement at the same time.
"Lord, I inform you that a being has been born in this world. A being whose power goes beyond anything we have seen before. Without even seeing its appearance, it demonstrates a strength that makes us feel completely powerless, it goes beyond what is considered legendary class. With a simple expansion, it demonstrated its ability to kill Gods. It is a monster that has been born in this world."
Who was sitting on her celestial throne frowned at the news and with an unusual calmness, looked at him attentively.
"What kind of being are you talking about? What power does it exactly have? Speak clearly, archbishop."
The archbishop swallowed saliva and continued, without raising his head.
"We cannot be sure of its appearance, but by its power, it is speculated to be a being of legendary class. It is capable of killing even the Gods and expanding its power in a way we have never seen before."
To the west of a distant country. The Overflow Church is located, where the 12 Celestial Angels have complete control.
That being rose from his throne with a sigh.
"I understand. It is a powerful being, undoubtedly. But there is no need to fear. We are the Celestial Angels, we have the divine power to protect humanity and this world. We will do whatever it takes to maintain peace and justice."
"If that being opposes us, we may not be able to stop it, even with our best warriors and mages. I don't want to imagine what could happen if that being turned against us, but... as I mentioned, by its power, it is speculated to be a being of legendary class. It is capable of killing even the Gods and expanding its power in a way we have never seen before."
I fell to the ground, with chills, the chill I felt cut off every word from my mouth.
With just mentioning it, my throat burns.
My clairvoyance doesn't have the ability to think sharply at this moment, but one thing...
With the little magic that made contact with my skin, [The Word of Omniscience] showed me...
The kind of being that gave birth at this moment.
He is the embodiment of death itself.
Not the physical representation of the end of everything.
There is nothing beyond him; he is the end...
As everything has a beginning, it has an end.
Everything is not infinite, and at some point, it will have to end.
There is no way to kill him since he is a universal law himself.
"Calm down, Archbishop. If that being turns against us, we won't hesitate to act with all our power. But for now, we will keep our eyes and ears open and wait to see what happens."
The archbishop stands up.
"Lord... No, it can't be... before we know its true power... we must kill it! We have to kill it! It has the reincarnation of a lawless being from this universe! Because... he is the end of everything, death is not the end but the beginning! Ah! Let's inform the Angels before it's too late!"
"No... nothing is happening..."
"My lord..."
I have to inform her Majesty.
So that she acts as soon as possible on what happened...
Because if not, it will be too late.
This magic should not exist.
This magic is beyond the limits of this world.
The owner of such magic is unknown.
But before they develop it, we will have to find and kill everything related to it!
At any cost!
