God is light. When people live and work under the light, it can always be said that they are in the arms of God. Therefore, light was one of the forms identified with God.

Since light is something that can be located anywhere and is newly created anywhere, it could be said that God exists everywhere.

Since it was inseparable as a guide and the foundation of life, it was also worshiped as a god.

And that light was leaking out instead of blood from the hand I had stabbed and pierced.

“You want me to reject my favor and live like an incompetent and inadequate person?”

“Is there anything different about being originally human? You’re just interfering with a world where you live alone. But I say it again and again. You are fake too.”

“Arrogant bastard, I hope you realize how arrogant and disrespectful it is to call your creator a fake.”

Suddenly. Not paying attention to the fact that her hand was fixed by the blade, she squeezed the knife between her middle and ring fingers so that it slipped out.

Seeing him do something like that while groaning in pain made me think that God was also a god.

The goddess, who had fallen on the floor, got up and prayed for her cracked palm to heal again.

It was a staggering movement, but those eyes were alive and glaring at me.

The growling just felt truly cruel.

“Good. … If this body is going to be chopped up anyway, I will use it until it breaks.”

It seemed like he had made up his mind now.

It seemed like he was saying it was real from now on, so I threw the dagger into my inventory and pulled out the holy sword.

The moment I pulled it out with a swoosh, the goddess’s finger snapped.

“Isn’t that a sword that borrowed my power? Do you think you can use that sword against me?”

The power that was ringing in the holy sword quieted down.

“Okay, I apologize. Because of me, a soul was hurt.”

“Then… !”

“But I don’t think it’s enough to be thanked for prolonging my life. Do you know what happened to that child in real life?”

For a moment, I felt speechless.

I just groaned for a while because I heard that the game was downloaded as is.

In the end, I couldn’t hold back my curiosity and looked away from behind the moan.

“He was taken to the hospital because he was so skinny due to malnutrition. Will I die soon? Won’t I die? You don’t know. So even if you ask, I don’t think salvation will be there.”

Although he was talking arbitrarily, looking at the little girl who was talking as if he was being merciful only made me irritated.

My brows naturally furrowed.

“Now, can we say that I am unconditionally bad? I would have gained peace in my heart by having been able to meet someone like you, even if just for a moment.”

My teeth were ground apart. Although I was thankful that the relationship continued, I couldn’t be thankful that we broke up, so I only felt angry.

The merit of wielding a great sword in this narrow room has disappeared. In the end, he just took out the dagger again.

“You’re not going to quit. It’s foolish, it’s foolish, I’m so sick of it all now.”

The goddess shook her head and said so.

The empty gaze and blank expression on his face soon made the shape of a gun with his fingers and pointed it at me.

“There are guns in your world?”

At that moment, the light condensed in my hand, created a sphere, and shot it towards me.

There was no trigger pulling. There was no sound of the hammer hitting or the gunpowder exploding. I just heard a pinging sound and barely managed to turn my head to avoid it, but I could see a banging sound and smoke billowing behind me.

“You’re not going to finish your duty as a warrior anyway, right? Anyway, I’m just waiting for the world I created to perish along with it, right? If that’s the case, why don’t you just die here? In the hands of ‘beloved’ Veronica.”

“I’m sorry, but I don’t love Veronica.”

What I loved was not Veronica, but the sad person inside.

I still don’t know the name. I just called her Veronica because she looked like Veronica, and I just thought she was in love with Veronica. I’ve never really loved someone based solely on their appearance.

There was a goddess who opened the distance and pointed her finger at me.

Seeing that sight, she turned around and struck down her finger with the dagger. The goddess’s eyes narrowed, and at the same time, the severed finger flew into the air, spattering blood.

“You don’t need to use fingers.”

As he said that, light gathered at the location of the severed finger and shot into my body again.

The straight line of light that passed through my shoulder threatened to cause me pain. This time my frown narrowed.

If it was a war of attrition, it was clear that I would lose.

Anyone who gets hurt hurts, but no matter how much of a warrior I am, I couldn’t heal my wounds so miraculously.

On the other hand, what about that goddess? He may have done it that way on purpose, but he made his body regenerate over and over again and even heal his wounds.

If you can’t die and you can’t expect to be consumed by injuries, what you ultimately have to do is subdue it.

So I thought the best way would be to relax it as much as possible and tie it with the rope that was lying around behind it.

Blood splattered, then quickly spread into flames, blocking my view, and the gap between Veronica and me was momentarily narrowed.

Physically, I have longer arms, so I stretched them out far, and when I saw them consciously digging into my arms, it seemed like the goddess was not just a flower.

Light gathers and radiates from the hand extended towards my abdomen.

“Ugh!”

A huge shock rang out, and I felt as if all my internal organs were being twisted. It was such a shock that it felt like I was going to lose my mind, so I let out a moan.

In times like these, there should be something to give and receive, but I started to think that there was no hope because I was only giving and receiving.

After all, even if it meant immortality or instant death, I never wanted to fight against a being that crawled back from the brink of death.

Even in the game, I saw my HP decreasing, and I knew that I would win when it ran out, so I attacked, but I didn’t know that no matter how many times I killed it, it would come back to life, and if I entered a never-ending fight, it would be the one who attacked that would get tired.

Just when my mood was about to turn into despair, a clicking sound was heard from the goddess’s mouth.

At the same time, I noticed Veronica’s body dripping with nosebleeds.

Does a war of attrition work?

When that thought suddenly occurred to me, I held the dagger in my hand tightly again.

And rushed in. Putting aside the pain, I gritted my teeth and attacked, and the goddess, who wiped away the nosebleed with her sleeve, turned her gaze towards me again and swung her arm.

Kaang!

The sound of blades clashing.

Startled, I shifted my gaze to the tip of her left hand. There, a dagger made of light was taking shape and soon dispersing into the air.

The goddess gathered her swaying body and pointed her finger again. Since she had already swung her sword once, one turn had passed, so there was nothing else for me to do.

He turned his body halfway, twisted his waist, and kicked her hard in the chest.

Before the light could gather in his fingers, he was able to hit her in the ribs, sending her body flying and hitting the table, causing a huge impact.

“Ugh, keuhuh.”

Although she was coughing up blood, I knew that the wound would heal again anyway, so I immediately picked up the rope from the floor and rushed at her.

But she stretched out her foot while lying on the floor, and it became a shock wave that hit my chin.

I didn’t expect it.

It was a very fraudulent ability to begin with. Since everything she imagined was coming to me in form, it would be difficult to deal with it unless I anticipated, expected, and exceeded all of her imagination.

My body jumped up and immediately rolled on the floor.

No matter how much his body was overloaded and he ended up with a nosebleed, in the end, he was a god who drew on the power of a god.

There was no way he could win against a god who drew on his original power.

My head was dizzy from getting hit on the chin.

It was difficult to keep my balance and get up.

As I frowned and tried to look straight ahead with my hands on the ground, I saw Veronica standing up with her nose bleeding through the two overlapping fields of view.

“You’re foolish to make such a foolish choice. You’re foolish. Even though it is not a story that a mere creature can have. Even though the character is given the opportunity to wait and see, he makes a foolish choice. If the story of this world is ruined because you give up, it’s all your fault.”

“Huh, is this a threat? Regardless of the characters or anything, there’s no reason to watch it with you?”

“Really? Then, let’s die together.”

Veronica’s body falls down with a crash.

He appeared to be unconscious.

When I saw her lose her balance and fall to the floor, my heart ached and I wanted to run.

But right now, I couldn’t find my body’s balance and just stumbled and fell on the floor, so I couldn’t protect her.

I just felt helpless again and again.

“… I’m sorry.”

The goddess seemed to have left.

It felt like it was resolved quite simply.

However, because I did not know what it meant to die together, the danger coming from behind felt very scary.
