Xingyue, is Xiaokai also considered Kai?

She raised her head, and the confident, sharp light that belonged to a "Master" rekindled in her blue eyes. "Sure. But—"

"If you're going, you'll have to bring me, the 'strongest Master,' with you this time."

The voice just fell.

"...The strongest?"

A cold, hoarse voice, sounding like someone who had just woken up and clearly displeased, came from the second-floor stairwell.

Kishinami Hakuno had already woken up at some point.

She was wearing a simple, light gray silk nightgown, her long brown hair casually draped over her shoulders, and she stood there expressionless.

"I can't pretend I didn't hear that title, Ritsuka."

She slowly descended the stairs, each step carrying the aura of the Moon King.

"If we're talking about the 'strongest Master,' it should be me, right? You should be humanity's last Master. Although I lost to you, that was just an accident. My strongest sword didn't appear at the time."

For a moment, a strange standoff ensued inside the store.

The cosmic police officer XX who clings to your leg and won't let go.

Novia, the person involved, looked like she had a headache.

And, two girls who simultaneously declared themselves the "strongest".

“Um…” Novia seemed to want to say something, such as “Actually, there are some other people…” but she was interrupted by XX again.

"Ah! Right, boss!"

XX seemed to remember something, suddenly slapped his forehead, then pointed to the sky above and said loudly in a boastful tone:

"To improve your work efficiency, I've used 'tracing beams' to gather all the women on this planet who have been detected with your presence! They should be unconscious outside the atmosphere right now! So, boss, why did you find so many all at once..."

.......

Meanwhile, in another space.

This is a realm without the concepts of time and space.

It is neither heaven nor hell.

It is not a destination that any living person or deceased soul can reach.

Billions of stars are born and die within it, like grains of sand in the Ganges River, each star representing the birth or end of a world.

In the center of this void, at the beginning and end of all things, floats a pure white point of light that cannot be described in any words.

It is so small that it seems to be non-existent.

It is also very large, so large that it seems as if the entire universe is just an insignificant speck of dust.

Before the point of light, a human-shaped silhouette woven from light humbly knelt on one knee.

"I'm very sorry."

Luce lowered his head.

"Although I have tried many times... but 'Father' has no intention of coming back."

The sound was not transmitted through air vibrations, but rather directly to the pure white light spot in the form of an information flow.

"There's nothing we can do now."

The point of light remained silent for a moment.

"Really? But from my observation, your execution didn't seem very 'sincere,' Luce. You didn't even listen to what I said, did you?"

Luce's body trembled slightly.

Then, he muttered something in a low voice that only he could hear.

"...It was clearly God's fault, you should be the one apologizing, you were the one who should be in the right, Jesus was right after all..."

Such disrespectful words, if heard by any believer, would constitute the most severe judgment.

however,

Upon receiving this rebellious message, the pure white light did not become angry; instead, it... flickered suddenly at a pleasant frequency.

The light was warm, bright, and even carried a wave similar to a human "chuckle".

"Hehe... This straightforward rebellious spirit, and this timing, are exactly the same."

Light spot——

This time, Yahweh's thoughts were tinged with obvious pleasure.

"But it doesn't matter."

His light, which had just flickered, transformed into an incomparably stable radiance filled with absolute confidence.

"This time, I'm well-prepared, and success is just around the corner!"

......

It is the ?th season of the cosmic calendar.

The task of resolving the 'anti-cosmic invasion' incident was entrusted to someone.
