Just as the alien god was filled with doubt and uncertainty, Ishtar, the cosmic being held by the shoulder, slowly spoke.
"Honestly, I just wanted to be a good bodyguard and see what other tricks this man had up his sleeve."
Her voice was languid, yet carried an undeniable, divine majesty as she said, "However... it's been a long time since I've encountered such an interesting opponent as you."
She raised her beautiful eyes, which contained the essence of the primordial universe, and looked directly into the divine eyes that belonged to the alien god, a cruel yet excited smile curving her lips.
"Then let me get a little serious."
The moment she finished speaking, she made her move.
There was no earth-shattering opening move, nor even any sign of releasing magic power.
However, the alien god was horrified to discover that his hand, which was gripping her shoulder, and the divine power he had poured into it, were being devoured by an indescribable, greedy, and domineering force!
"—!"
The alien god abruptly pulled his hand back, staggering several steps backward. For the first time, an expression of disbelief appeared in his majestic eyes.
Centered on the universe of Ishtar, a terrifying scene begins to unfold.
The magical shell that disguised her as an ordinary magician shattered instantly, replaced by a primal divine power as deep as a black hole, seemingly capable of dragging the entire world into it!
The light throughout the train venue, whether it was magical illumination or emergency lighting, was collapsing and extinguishing towards her location.
Space itself groaned in despair before her divine might.
The ruins of the venue, the magicians around, and even the brilliance of the holy sword in Yu Tohsaka's hand seemed to be shrouded in shadow.
That wasn't a magic circuit in operation.
Magicians draw "mana" from the outside world, process it through their own "circuits," and ultimately release it as a phenomenon.
And the woman in front of us is the source of this "phenomenon"!
Within her body, there seemed to be an engine called "Primordial Universe" that was constantly undergoing nuclear fusion, with endless energy surging out from every cell of hers in a tyrannical and unreasonable manner!
"This...this is..."
The alien god stared incredulously at the goddess bathed in stars and darkness.
He could sense that the opponent's power system was completely alien to this planet, or even to this universe spanning human history! It was a far more ancient, more primitive, more... free-spirited, cosmic-level power!
Upon realizing this, a conclusion that overturned all His cognition and calculations exploded in His mind.
No, that's not right.
This guy... isn't a magician!!!
Volume 1: Chapter 144 Alien God: Man, You've Caught My Attention
For the first time in history, the will of the alien god fell into a state of stagnation, similar to a "crash".
incredible.
This word is not even enough to describe one ten-thousandth of His feelings at this moment.
In His vast cognition and calculations, this tiny planet and the life it nurtures are nothing more than a drama with a pre-written ending.
He is the only director, the only "god".
The resistance of pan-human history, the struggle of Chaldea, the great deeds of heroic spirits... everything is within His script.
Yu Tohsaka is a small, interesting "gibberish" character who appears in the script.
Therefore, He descended.
With an indifferent disdain like looking down on ants, and with the interest of dissecting experimental subjects, He was even prepared to erase this small train along with all the lives within it after easily dealing with Tohsaka Yu and deciphering his secrets.
But He never expected that on this planet that He considered to be in His own hands, on this stage that He considered to be a "cage", He would encounter such a... monster!
This is not the restraining force of "Gaia" or "Alaya" of this planet, nor is it any deity left over from the Age of Gods.
That power was filled with a unique texture, and contained the laws and truths of another universe!
A true "god"!
Why?! Why would someone of this level disguise themselves as a mortal and appear here?!
Countless questions surged within the alien god's will, but were instantly suppressed by absolute reason and icy resolve.
The plan has deviated from its intended course most seriously.
The threat posed by this unknown goddess far exceeds that of Tohsaka Yu, and even surpasses that of Chaldea!
We must... find out her true colors here!
In an instant, the eyes of that alien god once again gathered a chilling killing intent.
Even if the opponent is an incredibly powerful being, His dignity as a "god" would never allow Him to retreat without a fight!
Rasputin's body began to emanate an even more terrifying aura, and the surrounding space groaned and distorted under His divine power.
"Oh?"
Cosmic Ishtar keenly sensed the opponent's fighting spirit, and the cold smile on her face instantly became even more brilliant and bloodthirsty.
"Having come to this point, are you still deciding to take action?"
She extended her slender fingers and gently hooked them, and the collapsing light and energy around her transformed into a miniature galaxy that spun continuously and shimmered with starlight, hovering at her fingertips.
"Then let me play with you!"
The next moment, two terrifying divine forces, both originating from beyond the "universe" and capable of overturning the laws of the world, collided violently within this small train carriage!
No explosion, no roar.
Or rather, human senses are no longer able to comprehend the "phenomena" happening before our eyes.
The moment those two divine forces, which also did not belong to this world, collided, the canvas called "reality" was completely torn apart.
Everything in Tohsaka Yu's eyes disappeared—the luxurious venue, the terrified magician, the cold carriage... In its place was a bizarre and fantastical cosmic landscape, half scorching and half freezing.
To his left is the moment of the birth of the primordial universe, as depicted by the cosmologist Ishtar.
Countless nebulae converged and spun behind her, and newly formed stars burst forth with billions of tons of energy, wild, free, and filled with the boundless joy of creation and destruction.
To his right lay the absolute zero, desolate depths of space, laid out by the alien god.
There were no stars, no light, only cold, mathematically precise laws and a despairing order that governed everything.
Two completely different “truths” are waging a fundamental “conceptual war” in this narrow space!
"Avalon (an ideal land far removed from the world)!"
Yu Tohsaka immediately unleashed the true name of the Holy Sword Sheath, and a dazzling golden barrier enveloped him, Rin, and Sakura, barely maintaining a small piece of "reality" amidst the aftermath of this battle of the gods.
The two girls stared at what was happening before them, their faces pale, their hearts filled with an unprecedented shock.
"Hahahaha! Interesting! Really interesting!"
Cosmic Ishtar let out a hearty laugh, enjoying the battle and this evenly matched opponent.
With a casual gesture, she unleashed a beam of light, composed of the combined energy of tens of thousands of supernova explosions, towards the alien god.
"Chaos and disorder will eventually give way to truth."
Rasputin, possessed by the alien god, remained expressionless. He simply raised his hand, and the space in front of him instantly became "absolutely still," even the concept of time was frozen, easily annihilating the beam of light that was powerful enough to destroy a galaxy.
Their battlefield has completely transcended the realm of physics.
However, just as the two gods were getting into a heated argument, Rasputin, who served as the "container," began to have problems.
“Crack…Crack…”
Fine, spiderweb-like cracks began to appear on his skin.
What seeped through the crack was not blood, but a deep starlight that seemed to suck in one's soul.
Kirei Kotomine's body, no matter how many modifications it underwent, was ultimately just a human shell. It simply could not withstand such a prolonged and intense descent of the will of an alien god!
The container is about to break!
The alien god clearly noticed this as well.
His icy gaze fell one last time on Yu Tohsaka and the holy sword in his hand that still radiated golden light.
玖_7起锍玖1傘八溜y?`uIe漪“…”
The next moment, the cold cosmic power that rivaled that of the universe Ishtar receded rapidly from Rasputin's body, like a receding tide.
"Hmm? That's it?" Cosmic Ishtar raised an eyebrow, seemingly unsatisfied. "What a boring guy."
As the alien god's will departed, the torn space began to repair itself rapidly, and the terrifying cosmic scene gradually dissipated, revealing the train carriages, already reduced to metal wreckage and riddled with holes.
Rasputin was covered in blood, kneeling on one knee, panting heavily. Clearly, the "divine intervention" had taken a heavy toll on him.
The crisis seems to be... over?
However, before Tohsaka Yu could even breathe a sigh of relief, a vast and cold voice suddenly rang in his ears, or rather, in his mind.
That was the last sentence the alien god left behind before he departed.
"Yu Tohsaka, the guardian of the 'beasts'..."
"I will come and take you away in person in the future."
That vast and icy voice was etched deeply into Tohsaka Yu's soul like a brand, echoing for a long time.
The guardian of the "beast"?
I?
Yu Tohsaka's heart skipped a beat, and for no apparent reason, she recalled the other party's comment about "a strong 'beast' aura," and for a moment, she was filled with confusion.
Is there some secret he is hiding that he himself is unaware of?
With the complete departure of the alien god's will, the terrifying pressure that had sustained the entire battlefield also vanished.
Yu Tohsaka felt an overwhelming sense of exhaustion wash over him. The radiance of the holy sword in his hand dissipated, turning back into golden particles that vanished into the air.
He stumbled and almost lost his balance, but fortunately Rin Tohsaka caught him in time.
"Brother! Are you alright?!" Rin's voice was filled with concern and lingering fear.
"I'm fine..." Yu Tohsaka shook her head, then immediately looked at Sakura beside her. Only after confirming that she was also safe and sound did she breathe a sigh of relief.
Avalon's barrier slowly dissipated, revealing the horribly mangled train wreckage outside, resembling something that had been bombed by a meteorite.
"Tsk, did you escape?"
Cosmic Ishtar pouted somewhat unhappily, and the tiny galaxy at her fingertip vanished.
A battle that she had finally managed to get excited about ended so abruptly, leaving her feeling extremely disappointed.
She turned around and looked at Tohsaka Yu with great interest. Her gaze was completely different from when she had treated him as an "interesting candidate for possession."
“Yu Tohsaka,” she said slowly, “you seem to have more secrets hidden inside you than I thought.”
An existence that can be personally named by an alien god and even subject to the wrath of his will to deal with cannot possibly be an ordinary magician.
Yu Tohsaka shook his head helplessly. His mind was a complete mess, and he had no idea how to answer.
"Hey, you vixen over there!"
Just then, Cosmic Ishtar suddenly shouted towards a shadowy corner of the venue, "After watching the show for so long, isn't it time to come out and clean up the mess?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the shadows in that corner twisted, and Koyanskaya walked out gracefully with her signature, businesslike smile that seemed to say nothing had happened.
"Oh my, as expected of the goddess Ishtar, her observation skills are still so sharp." She clapped her hands, as if cheering for the battle just now. "However, I can't pretend I didn't hear the term 'vixen.' It will damage my brand image."
Her gaze swept over the messy venue, and she continued, "But as a 'business partner' who provided the intelligence, I will still provide comprehensive 'after-sales service'."
She snapped her fingers.
The next moment, the space beneath Tohsaka Yu and the others began to distort.
"Well then, dear valued client and esteemed goddess, this 'fireworks show' has come to an end. We look forward to our next collaboration!"
As she spoke those alluring yet subtly meaningful words, Tohsaka Yu felt a sudden dizziness.
When he regained consciousness, he found himself back at the small, snow-covered station where they had boarded the train, along with Rin, Sakura, and Space Ishtar.
……
After that, life seemed to briefly return to the tranquility of the past.
