Chapter 411: The Sun God’s Relic

Chapter 411: The Sun Gods Relic

Ive traveled to many ruins with Celeste over the years.

Part of it was to get to know her better, buttheres another reason, to collect the Sun Gods relics.

The Sun Gods relics are items of special power that the Sun God placed in this world.

The Knight of the Sun, whom I destroyed with Stardus or the Wish Granter who erased memories in exchange for wishes but in addition to these, I collected a variety of other relics with Celeste.

The sword Luxaria, which we first found together, the Golem of Wrath, and the Ring of Jealousy, Invidia, found beneath a giant statue of the Sun God.

The time has come to destroy these holy objects.

And so, for such a reason, I was currently in Cathedral.

Ugh

~A large space with white walls and soft light from stained glass~

There, in the slightly chilly room, I stretched out with my arms outstretched.

AhhhNice.

I muttered, waving my arms and grinning from ear to ear.

Ive been cooped up in my hospital room for weeks now.

I finally managed to convince Celeste to let me out of there under her power.

Im sure theres an alter ego of mine in my room right now, specially made for me by Celeste. I told her I couldnt talk much in my room because I had to workI probably wont be found out until I get back.

Anyway, seeing me stretching like that.

Hmmmm, you can thank me, but why are you so heavily armed?

Celeste asked me.

Black hat, mask, and cloak. Celeste asked me that question, seeing me so heavily armed on my way to Cathedral.

I turned around, smiled wryly, and asked.

Celeste. Do you have the Sun Gods relics I gave you so far?

What? Oh, of course I have them

She replied in astonishment at my question.

As she muttered that, I twisted her silver hair slightly and said, with a smile still on my face.

Then, could you please bring them to me?

Why would I come dressed in full outfit?

Because I want to smash the relics of the Sun God.

***

Knight of the Sun, Wish Granter, Holy Sword Luxaria, Golem of Fury, and Ring of Jealousy Invidia.

The first two Ive already destroyed, and now I had to deal with Celestes remaining three.

Their identities are

These are the Sun Gods devices for judging the seven deadly sins.

In Celestes office we were looking at the sword on the table, the ring, and the golem in the hollow behind it, and I explained to Celeste.

The Seven Deadly Sins: Sloth, Greed, Lust, Wrath, Envy, Gluttony, Pride.

These were the devices the Sun God had placed in the world beforehand to deal with the sins of men, commonly referred to as the Seven Deadly Sins.

In the original story, they were all destroyed by Stardus.

Ah

Celeste muttered that with a despairing expression when she realized that even the Sun Gods relics were not gifts for humans, but rather tools to punish them.

Heres what Ive discovered about the relationship between sins and relics.

Knight of the Sun God, Punisher of Sloth, one you can never defeat if you dont know its attack pattern.

Wish Granter, the Punisher of Greed.

If you ask for a great wish without knowing the subject matter, he will grant it with a twist and a price.

Luxaria Holy Sword, Punisher of Lust.

The moment it is wielded, the sword automatically tracks down and eliminates those who have sexual urges toward its wielder.

Golem, Punisher of Wrath.

A creature that deflects and reflects back all that attacks it.

Ring Invidia, Punisher of Jealousy.

An entity that tempts the wearer to kill the object of their jealousy, and then, if they fulfill the bargain, kills the wearer in return and passes them on to the object of their wishes.

These are the true identities of the Sun Gods holy objects.

Bound together by malice, they were true weapons and it is fitting that they should be destroyed before the Sun Gods descent.

There was no telling what the Sun God would do with them once he arrived, when they would be so strongly influenced by his power. The Sun God might absorb the power of these objects and grow stronger.

In the original story, these five beings were defeated before his descent.

But

The original, apparently, was the Seven Deadly Sins.

There are only five holy relics, and the relics associated with the other two sins are nowhere to be seen.

Well. The worlds setting suggests that the Catholic seven deadly sins are derived from solar deities, so maybe it was the five deadly sins to begin with.

Anyway, I needed to focus on destroying those three for now.

With that thought, I turned to Celeste and said calmly.

Celeste, you know, we need to take care of these.

Its

She replies in a small voice, uncomfortable with me saying that.

Destroying these artifacts now would be the greatest betrayal of the Sun God that Celeste will ever commit.

Its one thing to disobey orders, its another to destroy his relics.

I stepped in front of her, clasped my hands together, and said.

Celeste, I know this is hard, but Im asking you. I need you to destroy these holy objects. Ill be right here with you, just look at me. Just this once, okay?

Okay.

In response to my persuasion, she replied with a small sigh.

For her, a holy woman of the Sun God, to be asked to destroy the Sun Gods holy object herselfShe could have resented me, or rebuked me for being so cruel, but Celeste thankfully did not.

And so I turned to her, clasped her hand, once more, and said.

Then, lets go and break the Sun Gods holy relics.

***

And so it was that we decided to smash the holy relics.

Outside of the office, in the empty halls of the Cathedral, we stood in the center of it, staring at the three holy relics.

I have a feeling something is up So, how do we destroy these?

She muttered as she looked at the holy relics.

Three holy relics on the floor. The Sword of Lust, the Ring of Jealousy, and the Golem of Rage.

Celeste asks me what to do with them, and I reply calmly.

Just infuse them with a lot of sun power, and theyll spontaneously combust and collapse on themselves.

I see.

My simple explanation, just slam the power into it and destroy it.

In fact, in the original, Stardus handled most of these with the power of the stars. Its probably the most standard tactic.

Except

The Fury Golem, in the original, Celeste infused it with so much power that it ran amok and exploded.

So, I could see that Celeste alone could destroy these holy objects.

Of course, if she tries and it doesnt work, Ill have to ask Stardus to do it, or Ill have to take care of it myself, but theres a good chance she will.

Plus, it would be better for Celestes mental state to deal with them herself than for Stardus to destroy them.

Anyway, Celeste stayed away from where they were placed, and I stayed close to them.

If anything happened, I would use my Black Star power to subdue it. Hopefully, I wont have to use it anytime soon

And with that, I was all set.

Celeste, lets take care of this golem first.

Okay.

-Piyuuuuu.

With my words, Celeste shot a beam of light at the golem.

The result.

-Kaaaaaah!

The golems eyes glowed, accompanied by a bizarre mechanical sound, then it exploded in a burst of light, followed by a popping sound and disappeared without a trace.

.

Celeste didnt look too happy after destroying one of the holy relics, but she didnt seem to mind.

Good, lets keep going.

One more, Celeste.

Okay.

-Pfft.

And so, one after the other, we destroyed the ring without too much trouble.

Of course, the ring had a minor problem with a ghostly thing popping up in the middlewhich, much to Celestes delight, vanished without a trace as soon as it appeared.

Phew. One more.

..

I muttered quietly to Celeste, who looked even more sullen after smashing the ring.

Maybe I should be nicer to her after all this. The ring was precious.I feel very sorry for her.

Anyway, thats what I was thinking.And, since I havent had any problems so far.

I didnt think much of it as I broke the final holy object, Luxaria, the Sword of Lust.

Qua-ching!

The sword was shattered by Celestes beam but I was unable to react to the pink smoke that suddenly flowed out.

.er!

And, before I realized something was wrong, I had already inhaled the pink smoke.

Egostic! Are you okay? Egostic!!

Ah

I staggered back, just like that.

***

Egostic!

Celeste rushed to Egostics aid, seeing him staggering around after inhaling the strange pink smoke from the shattered holy relic.

Are you okay?

She cleared her throat of the strange pink smoke and ran to him, shaken and worried.

AndUnlike Celestes worries.

Um

Egostic staggered for a moment, but then regained his composure and stood tall.

Egostic?

Celeste. Ah, khhhh. Im fine.

He said, as if nothing was wrong but Celeste was already standing in front of him, worried.

She was able to look him straight in the face.

..

His face looked fine, except for a slight pinkish color.

Celeste was wondering if he was really okay when she saw that.

Hic!

Celeste let out a new sound, one she hadnt realized she was making.

Egostic put his hand to the side of her face, gently stroking her cheek.

Im perfectly fine, Celeste. Its more than

Uh, uh

Celeste was stunned by this sudden turn of events.

It was the first time she had ever seen him make such a bold move.

While she was embarrassed by her flushed cheeks, he whispered to her, his voice low enough to be heard.

Celeste.You look even more beautiful today.

EhUhWhat??? No, thank you, but all of a sudden?

While Celeste was bewildered by this bottomless barrage of affection, he pushed her a little further and pinned her against the wall.

With her pinned against the wall, he gazes at her in wonder.

Up close, he looks even more handsome than he did from afar Wait, thats not it.

What is it??? What the hell is that???

At this point, Celestes face was deeply red and incredibly flustered.and then, suddenly, she realized something.

Wait

A brick room.

There, a silver-haired woman dressed in a saints robe was pinned to the wall by a man in a black hat.

With her back to the wall, the silver-haired woman stared up at the man in front of her with golden eyes and spoke in a trembling voice.

WaitEgostic, calm down, we cant do this here, okay?

I dont think so. I cant take it.

No, just calm down, I like it, okay? We cant do this here Ugh.

Wait.!!!

This is the scene from the prophecy!!!!

She was horrified.
