The Impersonating Daimaou Wants to be Hated (WN): Chapter 145

 

Chapter 145: Limit

 Like a bubble that slowly rises to the surface, I feel my ego starting to function.

 There are three main conditions for activation.

 One, the original use for which it was created by our Creator: combat with cosmic anima.

 One, the whim of a being who is a friend of our Creator.

 However, I rejected these two possibilities as soon as I awoke. It was obvious that the Creator was not in the battle against the universe, and even the Creator's friends usually came to greet me first if they want to play with me.

 So the reason for my awakening was inevitably the last.

 One, be the selection pressure to create God from life on earth, and exterminate all. However, no one shall be permitted to violate the following for any reason whatsoever. The regulations that follow are as many as six hundred and sixty-six. Although all of them were severe enough to reduce my original power to less than one in a billion, it was no exaggeration to say that my body was still too big for this small planet, considering my original power.

 After all, I am the Creator's masterpiece. I, who was created to be the strongest of all, cannot be compared to a fragile life form that cannot even leave the planet.

 But then what does this mean?

 No matter how many times I repeat it, the upper limit of my power is not fixed. Considering the time that has passed since my activation, it should have reached the upper limit by now, but the output does not seem to stabilize no matter how long it takes. Since this would violate the regulations of Article 12, we cannot wield even half of the power that has been suppressed to a very small amount. Therefore, it cannot move to the next phase.

 It was synonymous with not being able to fulfill the mission given by the Creator.

 With a sense of embarrassment, I interfered with one of the calculation formulas that governed my own functions. Then I decided to find out the reason why the limit could not be set. Butーー

 The results were as expected.

 I felt the power of the curse in the wind swirling far above me. A spell using the wind. This itself is not particularly unusual, but the problem is its scope. It is wide. The wind that spreads over such an endlessly wide area is so strong that it seems to cover the entire planet.

 No, perhaps it really does cover the entire planet. I cannot fully judge with my current limited perception, but I felt such power in that wind. At the same time, I am convinced. After a certain period, my power will be set to a level where it will be beyond the reach of all creatures on earth, but at the same time, I am not allowed to have the power to destroy the stars. In other words, my current state is proof that the total power of the creatures of this era is sufficient to destroy a star.

 That would be amazing.

 The life span of a star is insignificant, and although I have stood before the creatures of the earth as a test since long ago, such a situation has only happened once in the past. Yes, that wasーー

"Wait, Kouhai. You can't do that."

 Mu? While I was viewing my past memories as data, two creatures came toward me.

"No way, wasn't it Kuku-san who attacked me in the first place?"

 Saying that, an individual that seemed to be a human male hugged the female of the spirit race from behind.

"That's... I feel bad about that....... I was out of my mind at the time."

"Do you really think you can pretend it didn't happen with words like that? You took my virginity and laughed so happily at me!"

 The male pushes the female to the ground. ……fumu. Apparently, these two will mate, but the female seems to be reluctant.

 The female, pushed down, desperately resists the removal of a piece of cloth protecting her lower abdomen.

"Kouhai, take your hands off me or I'll get angry."

"Angry? What are you talking about? I'm the one who's angry."

 Perhaps thinking it was impossible to undress her, the male's hands tore off the female's clothes, exposing two small bulges to the open.

"Kuh, A-Atom."

“I thought so when I saw them before, but they really are small breasts. They're not even half as big as Inua-san's, huh?"

"This is my last warning... let go of me."

 A small magic gushes from the female's body. The male sighed blatantly instead of being alarmed, although it was an obvious act of intimidation.

"I understand. Then, this would be fine, right?"

 The man rolled up his own clothes on his upper body. The male's body had somehow turned into a female's, and like the female whose clothes had been ripped off, two breasts were revealed.

"Look, it's the body of a woman that you love, Kuku-san. Don't you want to lick my breasts again as much as you like?"

"T-that's... I-Iーー nahhh!?"

 The female's body arches back. The male inserted his penis while she was caught off guard by the conversation. It was a fluid movement that could be explained as an individual specializing in reproductive capabilities.

“T-this is… A-Atooom!!”

 A beat later, the female also realizes what has been done. With tears in the corners of her eyes, she stares at the male who has entered without her permission.

"Haha. If your breasts are small, your pussy would be tight. But this tightness. I like it."

 Thump*, thump*. Thump*, thump*.

"Nooo! Stop... nhh, ah!? P-please."

 The male is apparently quite accustomed to reproductive activities and he is suppressing the resisting female with his familiar movements and inserting his own genitals in and out of the female's genitals without question.

 But to have reproductive behavior in front of me... now, what should I do?

 If I am still unable to define the upper limit of my power, I should avoid combat, but it seems that combat is not necessary for the diminutive creatures in front of me. Should I then scatter senseless deaths as a symbol of the threat in this era? I am not inclined to do so, but if that is the role I am called upon to play, then I have no choice.

 That's what I thinkーー

"I like it. It's great to see the usually cocky Kuku-san making a face like that. I'm going to train you as my woman together with Inua-san and the leader, so please look forward to it."

 Thump*, thump*. Thump*, thump*.

“Noo!? Ah, ah!? Haa, haa... Atom, what's wrong?"

"What's wrong? This is the real me. I realized after being forcibly raped by Kuku-san and others that women are nothing but holes."

 Thump*, thump*, thump*! Thump*, thump*, thump*!

"Naaahhh ♥♥"

 That individual is neither male nor female. I don't know why my instincts are hesitant to touch it. Yes, this is just likeーー

 ? ? ?

 Alarm and vigilance. I put aside the two of them who are doing reproductive behavior for the time being, and quickly leave the place. ……No. I can't shake the gaze of something. It seems that I am completely surrounded.

"Thousand - Rain.”

 Just as I was about to choose between fleeing and fighting back, a thousand water arrows rained down on me as if they had been aiming at the right moment. I know what they are trying to do. But in any case, it would be difficult to escape. I decided so and released my cover and released my mana.

"Unexpectedly big. But I caught it."

 Immediately after, a water rope binds my whole body. Just as the other side caught me, I complimented the other side's figure. The magician was standing on the branch of a tree about 400 meters away from here.

 A spirit... she seemed a little tall, but the function in me had determined that she was a spirit. The blue hair reaching down to her waist was tied back in a bun, and her sleepy eyes were looking at me from a position that could not be caught from the viewpoint of an ordinary creature. Its mouth opened.

"A shadow?"

 It was an accurate description of my current state. Because I cannot determine the upper limit of my power, I am unable to construct a physical form that conforms to the shape of my power, and my ever-changing body shimmers like a shadow.

"I wonder if it's the monster Father was talking about?"

 A female fiend was standing nearby, probably having approached while I was distracted by the female spirit.

 I transformed part of my body, which is a shadow, into a serpent to cut through the water rope and attacked the fiend.

"If I pull it out, it will kill you."

 It was a rather sophisticated gait for a creature of the earth. The fiend, having successfully dodged the serpent's attack, drew one of her two swords.

 Kin*! Kin*! By the time the sword quickly returned to its scabbard and made a sound, the female fiend was already far away from me.

 Slash*, slash*. My body that was cut shook, but the damage was extremely minor. As I was about to fire countless fangs at the fiendーー

"Heart - Shot."

 A water arrow pierced through my body. Furthermoreーー

"Cut off any life."

 A series of slashes cut through my body.

 ……Strong. I can say that these individuals are clearly different from the two that had been doing reproductive activity earlier. An individual that seems to have transcended the limits of its species.

 Transcendent individuals. If so, are these two creatures the candidates for this era? I have a feeling that they are, and I have a feeling that they are not. The reason I am not sure is because of what I saw in the wind that seemed to cover the world.

"This is the end."

"Thousand - Death Shot."

 Blades and arrows pierce my body without rest. Whether these two were candidates or not, I had to do what I had to do.

"The Principle of Blades."

 The fiend swung a blow with great power. I dodged it with a gait greater than that of the fiend.

"Eh!?"

 The female fiend's eyes opened wide. I took advantage of that moment of slight gap and channeled my mana into my sword to behead herーー

"Heart - Shot."

 A water arrow with a great amount of mana condensed in it attacked the heart I had just created, so I grabbed it and stopped it for a moment. The female fiend took distance from me in the meantime.

"What!? You become a person?"

"Beautiful woman-san.... but you're not that cute."

 As the fiend and the spirit saw, my body was already no longer a shadow. Normally, I would be more likely to be in the beast form pursuing pure power, but since I cannot use a large output when the upper limit of power is not set, I naturally chose to be in the human form focusing on technique.

 For the time being, I will begin a trial run of this body. I turned my palm toward the two females.

"Crush."

 Supergravity pushed the two females to the ground.

"This is... unexpected."

"Wanna withdraw?"

 The two females, who seemed to have had a good deal of experience and understood the difference in power between them and me, began to think about retreating as soon as possible. If these two females choose to retreat, it will be difficult for me to catch them.

 Would this be a bitter draw, with both sides failing to achieve their goals? I was about to judge that the probability was very high. Then something happened that I had not expected.

"Wha!? What is this?"

"We're surrounded? When?"

 Suddenly, a blue liquid covered our surroundings like a wall.

"Wait, wait. Are you kidding me?"

"...Big pinch."

 The viscous slime-like liquid was releasing a powerful curse, and even the two creatures turned pale in the face of it, which was as strong as my current mana.

 The vicious thing covered its surroundings and used a part of its body to create a humanoid shape beside me. Unlike me, who had only taken the appearance of a humanoid but had not made either male or female genitalia, the humanoid beside me was an elaborate one that had the characteristics of both sexes.

"－－－－"

 A request through thoughts came from the humanoid, which could not be identified as male or female.

 I didn't feel the need to refuse its invitation in the current situation where I couldn't demonstrate my strength as the strongest, so I decided to accept its invitation. In other words, I agreed to capture the two females in front of us alive.

"Ugh. Shiver*. This is definitely the worst crisis in my life."

"At least it's a relief that the other one that appeared is cute."

 The two females looked as if they understood their fate, but they did not give up and challenged us. Fumu. These two may not be the candidates after all. They are competent enough, but I don't feel the strong and unique "self" that is common among the candidates. Their mind is in the superior realm but that will never change. I had a feeling that this was the case. Or perhaps the person who gave birth to or raised these two creatures was the candidate of this era, but that was something I could not know at this time.

 I only know one thing. It's just that someone who isn't a candidate can't overturn this situation.

"Kuh, together."

 After tens of thousands of attacks and defenses, the cornered female fiend took a reckless gamble, throwing all her defenses to the female spirit. And Iーー.
