The Devil Who Grants Wishes

151 – Gaia (7)

“…wiping it out?”

First of all, there is only one thing that can be known from Gaia’s answer, that it wipes out all living things.

In other words, it kills all life on earth.

why?

Gaia is not like that.

When I was a developer, Gaia’s modeling wasn’t made properly, but it was still properly set up. In other words, he had the kind of personality that would never take his life, even if he inflicted endless and extremely deep pain as the god of life.

But now Gaia is acting in the complete opposite of that setup.

It’s a pity that countless lives are being swept away, but it’s an attitude that can’t be helped.

It’s nonsense.

If the setting hadn’t changed, I wouldn’t choose any means and methods to preserve lives—-… Wait a minute.

It’s not for the sake of living lives, but it doesn’t cover all means and methods to preserve lives?

In other words, when faced with a crisis where lives cannot be preserved, what Gaia will do is… Damn it.

“…What are you thinking?”

Then the story is a bit different.

When I think about the remarks of sweeping away with a flood and the remarks of resolving the life limit, the most likely one is… look like.

…What is that.

What’s the difference between just killing creatures on purpose every moment to make the life limit full?

[Why ask a question when you already know?]

“…Yes, I got it.”

Gaia answers my question with a tilt of her head. It’s not that I’m being sarcastic or anything like that, I’m just tilting my head because I really don’t know why I’m doing this.

Asking a question is to solve something you don’t know, but asking something you already know seems to be an act that doesn’t make any sense with the common sense of God Gaia.

…This is why the creators of God have a different way of thinking than ordinary people, so it’s annoying.

They think they are behaving perfectly logically and correctly, but to human eyes, instead of being logical and correct, they behave in a jumbled and wrong way.

“Stop it. Aren’t you the god of life?”

[…yes.]

“Trying to annihilate the life of the Goddess of Life, if you’re trying to make me laugh, I’ll tell you that you failed.”

Gaia’s expression subtly changes. He is smiling bitterly, but because the original plate is so tall, it is hard to feel that it is a bitter smile. It really looks like a perfectly fresh smile.

[There is no other way.]

“…what?”

[The life limit is a protocol created by the system to prevent world overload.]

And Gaia, who had such a subtle expression, stretched out her hand forward and soon began to float strange objects in the air.

Even though it must be in a black space, something in the form of a sphere that is even blacker than that black space.

“…what is that?”

[A fragment of the system, a lighthouse that tells me where I should go. With this I got where I need to go.]

go oh oh

After Gaia’s words, the world vibrates. The world is not shaken because space is shaken in an expedient way, but the world is shaken by physical impact.

And the cause of that physical impact is the black space that fills our feet.

The trembling and vibrating thing is like seeing magma that can be seen over a volcanic crater just before an explosion.

[In order to break the rules created by the system, you need to apply a shock that is large enough to break the rules. In other words, if all but a few living things are wiped out, the world in which the pressure of the life limit is suddenly extremely low will break the equilibrium of pressure and destroy the life limit on its own.]

So… if you make a vacuum inside a bottle that blocks the inlet, can you say that it’s similar to crushing the bottle and breaking it?

The bottle as the life limit and the contents of the bottle as the number of living beings in the world?

“I can’t think that doing something like that will break the limit of life. Above all, if you fail, there will be irreversible consequences.”

[No, there is no way it will fail. It is the result of me, who had been asleep for thousands of years, making countless assumptions.]

“You’re insane. Even if the life limit is broken, don’t countless lives die as a result?”

[The reduced life will recover automatically over time. This is the law of nature.]

Gaia knows what she is doing. It wasn’t crazy, but through a calm reason without an inch of madness, after leaving a little backup, he made a plan to wipe out the creatures of the underworld with a flood and into that black space.

That’s why even persuasion doesn’t work.

If it was crazy, it would have brought me to my senses, and if my assumption was wrong, I would have pointed it out and changed my opinion, but Gaia now doesn’t listen to anything.

This crazy choice was made with an ideally calm rationality, and the point that can be pointed out when aiming to break the life limit is to instantaneously delete the life form and give a huge pressure change to break the life limit. does not exist.

[For life to exist eternally, there is no other way than this to reproduce life forever. It will start with pain, but the end will be grand.]

“…I don’t understand.”

[Faust, and warriors. you guys don’t worry Life is necessary for all life to flourish again, so you will survive the great flood by boarding the ark to assume that role.]

As the black space beneath our feet gradually rises upward and spreads out in all directions, we can see the soil and trees that were still intact in the distance being eaten up by the black space and disappearing.

And that’s not all.

It has turned into black water rather than black space and begins to spread toward the world like a huge flood. It is indeed an appearance suitable for the word flood that Gaia has been talking about so far.

“What’s this…”

Even more shocking, this Black Flood is apparently evading us.

The black flood, which rises so rapidly that it covers our heads and obscures the blue sky, creates pockets to evade us.

As if Moses parted the sea, this black flood that is completely avoiding our surroundings is literally fulfilling what Gaia just said, that we will survive the great flood.

…no.

The progress of the work suddenly became so fast that I couldn’t keep up with it, but if I leave it as it is, the world, the world where Lucia can live happily… kuh!

Kwaaa!!

When the accident reached that possibility, the body moved on its own.

The hand that stretches forward uncontrollably creates a huge magic mine at its tip, passes through the barrier of the black flood, and strikes Gaia in an instant.

[…Are you really a devil?]

In a space filled with black floodwaters, Gaia, who is looking at me from the end of a straight tunnel created by magic mines, frowns in pain and says:

Is the devil right… Really, that means a lot of thought.

[To save the world? You just have to live the way you have lived until now. The people around you will not suffer, and they will not suffer any damage. This is unavoidable to save the world, so why?]

“Literally, I’m the devil.”

[…what?]

“Can’t we just watch the devil save the world?”

Upon hearing my answer, Gaia’s mouth was blocked in an instant.

It seems that he tried to dissuade me through persuasion, but according to my answer, I have become an existence that cannot be persuaded with any words.

To stop the devil from trying to save the world, isn’t this an extremely devilish act?

“Obviously I wanted to break the life limit. But, I didn’t want to break it with such trashy behavior.”

[What the hell is going on with a topic that I don’t know anything about…?!]

The black space that filled our surroundings disappears in an instant. The sky, hidden from view by the black flood, shows off a beautiful blue color again.

…It’s new to me now, but the sky blue is really pretty.

It’s a blue color that’s hard to find on the ground, so that aspect seems to stand out even more.

“I just saw it split by a mine mine, so I tried it just in case… I’m glad it worked. It erased very neatly.”

[Ah… No… In this way…]

“Is there any other way to save the world? That’s right… I’m very happy.”

—-As you said, it’s because I’m a devil.

After my words that followed were over, Gaia’s whole body, which had been trembling in intuition as to what had happened, stopped as it was. It’s a change that happened so quickly that I feel a little goosebumps.

And Gaia, who has stopped like that, looks at me as if a wooden doll is moving.

In that gaze, as before, the mercy that was against us is nowhere to be found.

Only hate is visible.

…Is this the start?
