Before the window with Eternal's apprisal results faded from the vision of the six avatars of sin, the heroine, and the priestess's, the value of the HP and MP dropped by hundreds of thousands from that one attack dealt by the avatar of sloth - but at the same time it showed off even more how ridiculously high the values were...!
"Annoying dust! You are nothing in front of me!"
The red and black smoke monster took a step forward shaking off the remainings of the light blue glow and spreading its arms to the sides before raising its head and roaring.
"..."
With no response from the stunned avatars, it took another step forward and...
...stopped...
Without any facial features, it was impossible to judge on the looks alone what was the creature looking at, but everyone felt the same - Eternal was staring right at the light-brown-haired priestess, Caramel.
"...that's how it is... I see... Yes.. yes...! My creator cannot be wrong - he does not make mistakes...!"
The creature muttered to itself clenching its fists as if it was bracing itself for something.
"...whew..."
...which in turn prompted Caramel to stealthily breathe out as she confirmed that her plan would work...!
"YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!"
The wounded Corvus roared, crushing his bleeding stump with his other hand, brutally stopping the bleeding by forcefully sealing the wound - and rushed at the red and black smoke monster with even more ferocity than before - prompting all the other avatars to get back into the fighting spirits too.
The entire area lighted up with the multicolored glow of various sin-based skills and...!
*WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM*
...Eternal disappeared for the duration of a single heartbeat and the sound of seven hits resounded through the mountain top...
"...ugh...!"
All the avatars and the brown-haired heroine let out painful groans and crumbled to the ground - knocked out but not dead.
Then the red and black monster reappeared - this time right in front of Caramel - and stood above her appearing to be glaring down at the light-haired girl with its featureless face.
"You are the one fulfilling the will of my creator - which route do you wish to follow?"
The creature asked in a composed voice, waiting for the girl's response.
"Unfortunately it is the secret true ending one - the one in which you die - to my defense I was forced into it by the actions of the seventh capture target, the current avatar of pride you seem to know already, Zombie..."
Caramel spoke up unable to stop the shivers she got from the overwhelming pressure Eternal was giving off while simply standing near her.
"Ah... yes... the other reincarnation that my creator brought to this world to make sure you will help to turn it into a mine... yes - he is quite troublesome. But I don't understand your concern? Following the will of my creator is the most important, me dying isn't anything special."
The red and black smoke monster nodded its head in while its voice sounded almost pleased while talking about the blue undead - as if it had a particular fondness of him...
"...what...?"
And yet, the words spoken by Eternal were like a thunderstrike to the light-brown-haired girl.
"What is it, my creator's chosen...?"
Eternal tilted its head and asked in surprise, watching the wide-eyed girl's face turn ghastly pale.
"Repeat what you said about that... undead..."
Caramel whispered hugging herself with her own arms as she started shivering, unable to even look up at the featureless face of the red and black smoke monster.
"He is quite troublesome - a certain part of me is really fond of him - maybe even too much. If I were you I would kill him off before he will mess with you as he did with me... that said - who he was to you in your previous lives that my creator used him as a failsafe - I think that I knew that but that knowledge disappeared from my mind after I was separated in two..."
Eternal breathed out and answered while raising its hand and making a gesture as if it was massaging its head even though the only thing it achieved with it was to make the smoke of his hand fuse with the smoke of his head for a moment.
"No...! No! No! No! It cannot be him! It cannot be him! Are you telling me that this piece of shit younger brother of mine is my lovely XXXX?!"
Caramel shook her head while grabbing onto her hair and crumbling onto her knees in denial.
"Oh? Curious... It seems that his name was censored by the system..."
Eternal nodded its head and spoke in a curious voice while watching the light-brown-haired girl's anguish.
"Why am I even trying to do something with this stupid world... I don't need this world...! I don't need it...! It turned my XXXX into a bullying monster...! No! No! No...! You...! Eternal! Reset it! Reset the whole world - you can do it, right?! You are the secret boss - you can delete save files! You can restart everything, right! Start everything from the beginning!"
Caramel ripped out her hair and reached out to the red and black smoke monster, begging it in a desperate voice...
"Reset everything? Why? This world is only a step away from turning into the energy mine for my creator. What's the problem? You were told that you can do whatever you want to this world after you will save it from becoming useless and now you know who the other reincarnation is. Just sit here and wait for the route to be over so you can live out your dreams."
But Eternal didn't have to listen to her crazy request and it didn't - it merely scoffed and moved away from the light-brown-haired girl so fast that she missed it and instead of clinging onto it she fell face-first onto the ground.
"Now then... to wait for the person who would kill me~"
Eternal hummed shockingly happy and turned its back on the wailing Caramel, looking towards the sky as if expecting something to appear there...
*WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO*
...because something did appear there...
In the sudden outburst of flames, a giant flaming bird simply exploded into the space above the mountain immolating the air as the deafening howl of the blood-red flames muffled any and all sounds coming from below.
"There she is~ But... without Zombie?"
Eternal wondered to itself observing the phoenix circling the mountain before diving down and landing right in front of it...
...turning into a tall freckled girl with hair sharing the color with the dark blood...
"New form?"
The red and black smoke monster asked sounding very happy for some reason.
"Hey, I ate the phoenix's egg in the last playthrough and was reborn as the phoenix in this world - you should see Zombie's face when I turned into the actual bird and was like -FACE ME - and in the first place, you're the one to talk - haa... - did you manage to properly take over Eternal - it would be really awful to actually face it."
Cranberry breathed out and smirked at the creature.
