Having traversed countless realms, can you possibly be as clever as me?

The moment Natsuki Subaru saw him, he heard the soft laughter of the demon within him.

This is a laugh that comes from seeing something that can be slaughtered and played with.

"Hey, isn't that Subaru?"

The giant beast uttered a voice that was extremely familiar to Subaru Natsuki, enough to freeze his body instantly, because the owner of this voice was usually that harmless little cat spirit.

"You've finally arrived. Why didn't you suddenly appear this time?"

The giant beast's golden eyes glared down at Subaru Natsuki, a low, sorrowful ferocity in them.

The cold instantly froze his body. Perhaps because the pain from the instant freezing was not enough to trigger a miracle, the footsteps of [Death] approached Subaru directly.

"Oh, that won't do. You're bleeding too much—let me stop the bleeding."

The pain, which should have faded away, ignited with astonishing heat, awakening him. His throat was choked by excruciating pain, and Subaru saw his wounds, scattered throughout his body, frozen and emitting sounds. White steam rose, and the wounds inside his body were connected, joined, and healed by sharp ice.

The pain, combined with the miraculous healing, allowed his body to recover from the severe injuries that should have killed him.

But this is by no means a good thing for him, because what Subaru Natsuki craves now is death and a fresh start.

He was powerless to resist. His body, which was originally strong enough to fight against the Archbishop of Sin, became weak instantly after he took control of it. Perhaps he was strong enough than before, but he was still too weak in the face of Puck, who had returned to his original form.

Unable to resist, yet unable to die, Subaru finally understood why Tsugumi felt that a body he was used to was torture.

Because this would inevitably prolong the torment to the very end of eternity, preventing the death that should have begun from ever arriving, just like... right now.

631. My name is Deathwing!

Natsuki Subaru should have been killed by the damage from the frozen body, but due to the combined effect of the two forces, he was forced to survive.

He survived, albeit cruelly.

Two treatment methods that completely abandoned any consideration for the human body violently healed Subaru's body. Blood gushed from deep within his eyes, staining his vision crimson.

It hurts so much, it hurts so much, it's beyond just how much it hurts.

Even the pain surpassed this feeling; it was a hellish experience unfolding within Subaru's body. This place was practically an icy hell within the underworld!

But he could endure it. Although the pain was greater than most of the trials that Dongjiang had given him, he still persevered. After all, all that training had paid off, and he was already capable of enduring such pain.

“Parker, listen, listen, I can save…” Ang trembled as he tried to reveal his information.

Even if the witch crushes me to death, it doesn't matter; at least the pain of having my heart crushed is nothing compared to this moment.

Let's get him to restart it quickly and save everything!

“Ang, you have committed three crimes.”

This terrifying behemoth looked down at Subaru Natsuki. Its enormous mouth, lined with countless sharp teeth, moved. For a being whose voice had even changed, only its tone remained calm and was terrifying.

"First, you broke your promise to Leah and appeared at the gates of the King's Chosen. For an elven sorcerer, a promise is an incredibly important matter; your understanding seems inadequate. Breaking the contract so casually—you probably don't even know how much that hurt Leah."

"Even if this is under the control of that strange spirit inside you, the fact remains that the contract has been broken."

Ang couldn't refute it now, because his throat was also frozen and cracked by the ice, and his tonsils were broken but connected by ice. He forcibly peeled off the blood-red ice and said it was a crude way to stop the bleeding.

"Secondly, you allowed your elf to trample on Lia's feelings, and as her companion, you insulted her. Just how far have you driven the already tormented Lia? It wasn't enough to merely break the promise; you wantonly crushed Lia's heart."

Puck, his face close to Subaru lying sprawled on the snow-white ground, breathed cold, hard air onto him. Subaru's tear-filled eyes convulsed, feeling a sharp, needle-like pain.

"Then, thirdly, let Leah die."

Experiencing the excruciating pain that felt like his soul was being slowly tortured, Subaru even forgot how to breathe. But at this moment, a strong sense of resentment welled up from the depths of his heart.

"What right do you have to say such things?" Natsuki Subaru, who had forcibly healed the injury to his throat, said resentfully and angrily.

"If you have such an ability, you should have shown it sooner! You watched Emilia die, and you still signed a contract with her. What right do you have to criticize me!"

"If you were even slightly useful, Emilia wouldn't have died at the hands of the Bowel Hunter once, and now she's inexplicably died again!"

"The old man is right, you're just an old geezer who only knows how to breathe on your own people—die!!!"

All the resentment transformed into a painful miracle in an instant, shooting towards Parker, and the pain that poured in caused the giant beast to let out a dull thud.

However, this did not help.

"Is this the power of your spirit? And you dare to boast that you can grant any wish? How laughable."

Puck responded to the enraged Subaru with indifference and almost contempt, his golden eyes shining eerily.

"What use is such power other than causing me pain?"

"Ha—that's because I'm the useless little brother who's a complete waste."

Natsuki Subaru forced himself to stand up and gave Puck the middle finger.

"Next time—who the hell am I kidding? I won't hate you to death next time either, but this is the end of our relationship, Parker!"

"Before I return, you will die under my great elbow!"

After saying that, Natsuki Subaru took a deep breath and used his last bit of strength to shout out the devil's true name!

"Tsugumi!!!"

The five-minute countdown to his death has begun. Five minutes. When the time is up, he will die and then enter a new cycle.

This time, Tsugumi won't show up, and Subaru won't let him either. He'll use the information he's gathered to get a perfect clear.

But let him be a little willful this time.

In this world where Emilia is dead, let him unleash the demon within him and destroy everything that causes him pain!

Ha, isn't it just a contract that destroys everything after death? I have one too!

Parker frowned slightly and immediately raised his palm to smash Subaru Natsuki into pieces, but at that moment, a hand caught his falling hand.

"Speaking of which, the last time I fought with you, an old man, we went back in time before we even finished."

Tsugumi slowly stood up, catching the claw of the so-called Beast of the End with one hand, then grinned.

"Then this time, I'll kill you before that troublemaker shows up."

The next moment, Tsurugi's body suddenly twisted and deformed, and then, a taboo and blasphemous symbol appeared above his head!

—The root of all evil? Jealousy? No, that's not her...

When Parker saw the mark appearing on Tsurugi's head, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he quickly dismissed the thought.

The 'elf' before me is neither the Witch of Envy nor a part of Satella. Although it bears similar markings, the nature of its power is completely different!

This power, like the Great Sin Factor, comes from outside the world, and is even more primal and terrifying than the witches and priests of original sin!

"Your gene fragments are also very much to that big female snake's liking. Speaking of which, there's something I've always been curious about."

Subaru's flesh under Puck's claws completely burst and writhed, just like Capela who had been repelled and killed earlier; his flesh was deforming and growing.

"If I send your souls to other worlds, will you be able to maintain your original state after that world is reshaped?"

"Will the world recreate you, or will it try to take you back from somewhere else?"

"Hehehe, no matter what, I'm really looking forward to this result..."

"Alright, since you and the little girl you've made a pact with are so eager for dragon blood, then I'll give it to you."

Parker looked up and stared at the monster before him.

Without a doubt, it is a 'dragon'

Emerging from Subaru Natsuki's body, created by sacrificing his twisted flesh and torso and projecting the power of another world, was a colossal 'dragon'.

But it was by no means what Parker perceived as any of the dragons that had been banished to the other side of the falls.

It's not that its appearance is dissimilar; in fact, in terms of pure body structure, it resembles the human understanding of a 'dragon' even more than Shenron.

But unlike others, its aura was so distorted, so full of pure destructive desire, as if it were the very embodiment of destruction and ruin.

It was a black dragon, but it looked more like a living volcano, forcibly molded into the shape of a dragon.

Its body was so enormous that even Parker felt no sense of distance from it. Its body was covered in metal, with layers of source material armor running along its entire spine from head to tail. The cold metal was forcibly riveted into its molten, scorching flesh, the edges of which were glowing red. The rivets were slightly deformed by the high temperature, like the remnants of some cruel surgical operation.

The gaps between the plates were deliberately left open, as if their creators wanted everyone to see the magma churning in those cracks, the fiery flow of red, gold and white intertwined in the cracks that should have been scales, and the liquid flames that permeated and dripped like blood forever!

As its enormous form descended from the clouds, its massive, heavy chin, encased in source metal, resembled a battering ram attached to the jawbone of a living creature.

As he spread his wings, the sky vanished. His wings, blotting out the sun, blocked out the stars from the blizzard. The leathery wing membranes resembled a starless night sky, their wrinkled surfaces flowing with magma-like patterns. Metal plates were embedded between the wing bones, and each flap was like a blacksmith's hammer striking the world, tearing the air into visible shockwaves, and the resulting hurricanes uprooting entire forests.

Its tail trails flames as it swings, its tip forged from steel, ploughing the earth with burning furrows wherever it goes. When its claws land on a mountain peak, granite shatters like a shortbread, and lava overflowing from between its claws flows down the slope as new rivers.

This power, even just based on this size, is already unmistakably revealed!

But what Parker sensed was something far more terrifying than the sheer size of the body itself.

The earth trembled the moment this 'dragon' descended.

This is by no means a normal geological change, but rather the effect of all the Mana of 'Earth', one of the five elements that make up this world, and all the micro-sprites related to it being activated simultaneously!

This is by no means a request or a kind blessing, but rather—utter enslavement!

This giant dragon was like a tyrannical king, an unparalleled ruler, who, in the instant it descended and made its move, seized all elements related to the 'earth' of the entire world!

And so, as he roared, the continental shelf of the entire world groaned and cracked open under his weight, the ocean surged into the newly formed canyons, and the mountains were uprooted and smashed into dust.

His commands and enslavement were beyond the resistance of all the manas and elves associated with him; he was the guardian of the earth, the unparalleled ruler of the land!

The world trembled, and countless nations were instantly destroyed with the appearance of this monster.

912>>>>

Tens of millions of lives are constantly dying over time, but so what? In five minutes, it will all start all over again.

Let me vent all my pent-up desires in these five minutes!

"My name is Deathwing, the Destroyer of All Things, the Ender of All Creation. Unstoppable, Unyielding—I am the Cataclysm."

At that moment, the whole world heard the roar of this declaration.

The kingdom's nobles and members of the so-called electorate stared in awe at the dark dragon on the horizon, as did people from the empire and elsewhere.
