Jibril met the end of the war inside the Formula Repair Operation Room. Therefore, she only knew about the circ.u.mstances surrounding the end of the Great War by hearsay. However, compared to a few hours ago, when the map was projected completely, the situation was completely different.

Most of the Flugel Units had been destroyed, only a few units remained. Now, only two units: Avant-Heim and Artosh remained. The Map now only projected the Capital and its surrounding area, and there were

The combined forces of the Elf alliance and the Dwarf Alliance, squaring off against her.

The alliances of those two races extended to the Dragonias and the Phantasmas, respectively.

The fact that the Fairies and the Demonia were also included. The fact that it hadnt become a no holds barred conflict. The fact that they were steadily shaving off the Flugel Units using Aka Si Anse and the E-Bomb, as planned. There were small differences, but it was almost historically accurate even up to the date displayed on the Map:

November 9th Year 2 B.T.

It was almost historically accurate even up to the day the Great War had ended, as expected

... Splendid work, Masters

Jibril said, as she lowered her head and stopped her pen from writing any more Commands.

In their place, she took out her diary and used her pen there.

No matter what I did, they still won.

When they didnt surrender after she threatened them and urged them to renounce their rights, she even tried to make them surrender by force. Even after using such despicable methods, her Masters just told her to Come and get us. They answered head-on, and they showed her that they could really defeat her head-on. With that satisfaction, Jibril wrote the last entry in her diary.

As expected the ones who ended the Great War were Immanity. She was confident in that. The expectations and possibilities she saw in her masters were correct, as expected. She was able to observe it, and leave a record behind and now

And now, she will pay her penitence

. Or, not?

...... Really, until the very last moment

But, suddenly, Jibril notices she accidentally notices.

Her Masters certainly won, and she lost. Then, now?

... I was a really incapable servant, to the point of being incorregible, huh?....

The Great War wont end with this. She had overlooked something. She couldnt even leave her last will behind. Jibril looks at the roof in amazement.

... Master, I wonder, how did the world change?

Jibril, who would finally disappear without being able to know the past, asked the two who were shaping the future. But, when Jibril made that question, a voice answered

The end of the world, at the top of the gigantic chess piece.

Only the one who saw everything, only the One True G.o.d, only Tet heard all of that.

On one hand, there are those who think that the world is so simple that even a child could understand it.

There are also those who think that the world is so mysterious and complicated that you wont be able to understand it for all eternity, and its therefore meaningless.

There are also those who think that nothing is changing in the world, that nothing can change.

There are also those who think that the world keeps changing, and is changing right this moment.

Both in the past and in the present

Nothing is going to change like this. Tet did you lie to Izuna, desu?

Thats a beast. Its the heartbroken voice of a little girl that wont approve of killing because of her childish feelings.

Naturally. Nothing has ever changed, nor will ever change

Thats a G.o.d. Its the defeated voice of a little girl who doubted everything so much, she even stopped believing in herself.

They were a G.o.d, and a person

Do either of them really speak the truth?

Tet smiles from ear to ear, and looks at those who can answer all those questions.

In the past, at the two who thought that nothing was changing in the world, that nothing could change.

Now, at the two who think that the world keeps changing, and is changing now, in this moment.

The answering voice of the two successors

How did the world change, huh? Im sorry, but we cant answer that question

That voice echoed behind Jibrils back. That perplexed, speechless back Jibrils Capital.

The ones who suddenly appeared on Avant Heims main office, the hall that was wrapped in silence.

Thats why, well. Not how it changed

Bringing along the Map, that was spread out on top of the desk, and the Post Box.

But what changed. Thats what we want to show you, so bear with us.

A black and white pair was writing Commands on the desk, two children

Ehe. we came

.... we wanted, to see you Tehepero

Standing on top of the chair, behaving theatrically with blus.h.i.+ng cheeks, fidgeting, were Sora and s.h.i.+ro.

Ha? Eh!? W-w-w-where is this, wait a second, Jibril!?

And, not understanding the circ.u.mstances just like Jibril, there was Steph.

Jibrils thoughts were going in circles, she was bewildered and at a loss for words.

But with a mocking smile:

There is no rule saying that You cant transfer your capital to the opponents capital right?

...it was hard to send in a Settler Unit... in the confusion V

Sora and s.h.i.+ro had the face of a child that had just pulled a prank, but,

With this, if The Capital Falls, we four would die together as friends, right?

Hearing those words, Jibril

... we are threatening you using our lives as a s.h.i.+eld. This much retribution is just natural, right

Blood, that she supposedly didnt have was falling at her feet she was dazzled by that hallucination.

No way! P-please renounce your rights at once, and return

You keep saying that!? Shouldnt you be asking which one of us should renounce their rights?! Steph screamed, breathing hard. She was trying to convince Jibril, even if she had to lie.

In the first place, Jibril! I thought it was a possibility but!

Steph pointed with her finger, they didnt even have the leeway to glare at her with smiling faces...

Did you not realize that if you lost your dice you wont die, youd just withdraw from the game?

Uwah, Look, s.h.i.+ro. Just what is she saying, all high and mighty, when she didnt notice?

... Even though the only ones... who didnt notice were probably just her, and the geezer right?

As Sora and s.h.i.+ro spread their malicious gossip, Steph started sweating

Whyyy did you include a rule like If you lose, suicide!?

.. Jibril decided to Get on board on the spur of the moment.

She reconstructed all the spirits in her body, and forcibly restrained even her nerve terminals

N-nouhah, ahaha

She awkwardly Created a joking smile.

I thought that if I had to challenge you with my full power, Id take it literally and add a rule for certain death

Unintentionally noticing Jibrils exhausted expression and voice, Steph says:

Is that right? In that case, why dont you renounce your rights?

... dont mind, us go ahead

But Sora and s.h.i.+ro, once again, returned only a smile.

The two of them were children less than 2 years old, and they were pressuring Jibril, with a smile.

Trying to lie to me you shouldnt underestimate me

...s.h.i.+ro, wouldnt be fooled by that lie

Eh. a lie? What is she lying about?

As expected she was seen through, Jibril lowers her head and makes a bitter smile.

... indeed there is no way youd order me to renounce my rights

About that. Would I still be myself if I was reborn? you even went as far as giving us that hint

The spell restarting, the loss of memory accompanying that. All kind of principles.

There was no way even her masters knew all thatbut.

Even so, if she lost all her dice, even if the game ended, she wouldnt regain her memories.

Jibril once again feels ashamed that they revealed the truth so easily just with circ.u.mstantial evidence. Just why did she make light of her Masters? She feels incompetent as she remembers this lesson.

Anyways, that means we both can't Renounce our rights nor Win in that case, shall we begin?

... Begin what?...

Jibril was hanging her head, but Sora stepped up determinedly.

That should be obvious wouldnt it be what Jibril wanted to see!?

Sora pa.s.ses by her side smiling like he was having fun from the bottom of his heart, and laughs at himself.

Good grief, he was bragging that he couldnt lose to anyone because they are all stupid.

There is always someone above you

A G.o.d-cla.s.s idiot, dreamt of breathing new wind into the world A world that led there.

He doesnt know how the world was changed, but, he knows how it changed, that

... it's this

Sora waves his hand and shows them. Its not this, the Great War of the past.

This world is a game. No one is going to die, and we wont let anyone die. Not you, not anyone else.

... That is more interesting, right...?

As they said that, Sora and s.h.i.+ro slowly pa.s.s by Jibrils side, who stood stock still.

Extremely naturally, as if it was par for course, you could say that it was perfectly normal, smoothly.

They seized Jibrils Map and Commands.

Well then Jibril. Ill say it right now: This game is Blanks loss

...wh-what?

And, while enumerating the units names on Jibrils Command, they make a declaration:

That is because now we are going to lose because we are going to rip off the cable

Thats right, ripping off the cable, in other words:

When the 72 hours expire With theTask unaccomplishedwe are going to run. s.h.i.+ro, how much time remains?

... 16 hours, 22 minutes, 48 seconds Inside the game, approximately 19656 days, 53.852 years

Sora smiles bitterly at that answer, while writing commands.

The unreasonable guys who cornered the Flugel in their golden age It seems they are outs.h.i.+ned just with Heavens strike, after all, they possess a universal scale super-weapon, and they are monsters even with their bare hands. And yet, they went against them, for more than half a centurythey managed to hold on with just a human body

Fighting is meaningless. Since they are taking Jibril along, transferring the capital is already impossible.

Whats more, if their Capital gets pinpointed, all of them would get sent to the afterlife in a few seconds.

On top of it all they cant win.

s.h.i.+ro, this is the highest difficulty ever, whats more, its a transcendentally impossible game where defeat is predetermined, what do you think?

Sora asked, but the reply was the same as always, just a few words:

... the, best...

Right!? Thrilling isnt it!?

As he screamed that, Sora approaches Jibrils Post Box and

Gaaah! I only regret that defeat is already decided, s.h.i.+t!!

As expected, you two are crazy! There is no way you can

Steph screamed. Both she and Jibril were once again dumbfounded.

Jibril. If you have fun give me an offering give me two dice, okay

Sora said, and the moment he mailed the Command

Well then, from here on out, its the real deal, lets have fun

With lights and sounds that drowned out both Sora and Stephs voices, the planet shook.

And, like those two.

The one who thinks that the world keeps changing, and is changing right this moment.

Nay, the one who believes that. The one who wishes to believe it, the one who kept waiting.

... It changes. None other that you are changing it! Today, right this moment!!

For more than 6000 years, that time, that day, that moment.

Tet longed for it. He flaps his limbs and looks at that.

The already destroyed world. The world that ended long ago. The Established tactic that became obsolete long ago.

The move to perform its last rites.

Thats right, at the same time as Sora mailed the Command.

Facing Avant Heim, everything went flying like trash.

Straight ahead, in a straight line, or perhaps straight down.

Tet rolls around laughing at the former world as it falls, heading for destruction.
