The island ascended into the high heavens, shining with the same brilliance as the sun and moon.
When the satellites transmitted this spectacle, the gaze of almost the entire world converged upon this lonely small island that had originally been situated on the ocean.
Governments were in hesitation; bureaucrats were in panic.
When the Great Witch named Tsukishiro Yuki refused to show her "kindness" to humanity, it seemed she no longer had any restraints or scruples.
"Oh my, she has truly attracted a terrible existence."
The Owl Warden hid in the shadows of Prison Island, sighing with a voice full of sorrow:
"Why can't everyone be a bit more rational? Always pursuing an ending that only satisfies themselves."
"How sad, humanity; how sad, Witches..."
"It looks like I won't be able to clock off this time."
No one paid attention to the bystander's lament, nor did anyone listen.
Magic derived from Jougasaki Noah—[Liquid Manipulation].
This magic, which the girl only used for painting, finally revealed its divine might in the hands of the Great Witch.
As seawater gathered into whirlpools, the whirlpools rose and danced into tornadoes.
The clouds in the sky changed color along with them; the originally bright weather was instantly covered by a storm.
Across a radius of a thousand miles, perhaps even ten thousand miles,
If one were to observe Earth from the angle of a satellite, that small island on the great ocean was just like the eye of a giant typhoon as it formed.
Accompanying its movement in the sky, the atmosphere covering the entire planet began to rotate with it!
"The great day of the LORD is near, it is near, and hasteth greatly, even the voice of the day of the LORD: the mighty man shall cry there bitterly.
That day is a day of wrath, a day of trouble and distress, a day of wasteness and desolation, a day of darkness and gloominess."
(Old Testament · Zephaniah 1:14)
"I hereby sound the horn of doomsday on behalf of God, declaring the arrival of Judgment Day, which is also the end of humanity."
"Humanity..."
"Are you truly prepared?"
Another magic was urged to its limit. At this moment, Tsukishiro Yuki completely revealed her side as the Great Witch.
————Even without borrowing the [Witch Killer] to stimulate the Witch Factor buried in the bloodlines of all mankind,
She possessed the ability to destroy humanity all the same.
It would simply take a bit more time to clean up the survivors one by one.
"Gege, this is a bit thorny."
The Door Witch Abigail looked up at the human figure floating in the high heavens. She sensed some qualities that felt familiar to her:
"This woman, if described using terms from the world Abi was in before... why would she have the Spirit Origin of 'The Son'?"
Abigail sensed this aura with incomparable certainty.
It was more beyond-standard than any Divine Spirit Origin, originating from one of the three within that Trinity.
The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit.
Although it was only a fragmented part of His qualities, it was still the kind of existence that even her 'Uncle' would find troublesome.
"This woman, clearly every sentence she speaks is about destroying humanity, yet why does she possess this kind of quality?"
"Logically speaking, the power He scattered across the heavens would never favor a selfish person hostile to humanity... It really makes one more and more confused."
Facing Abigail's confusion, Suke, who had just exited the state of "viewing all cause and effect," wore a somewhat strange expression.
The current him felt even more awesome than the 'Third Loop Intelligence Hiro'; he completely understood everything the woman named Tsukishiro Yuki was thinking.
But precisely because of this, when that book of memory, thick enough to be hundreds of times longer than his current personality's lifespan, flooded into his brain,
If not for the mysterious and profound state of borrowing the Statue's mighty power, he estimated he would have directly lost his current self and defected to the Great Witch.
But under the scrutiny empowered by the Statue's might, he discovered that within that book of time, nearly ten thousand years thick—
More than half of it was copy-pasted content.
It was just like a dream within a dream fabricated by a childish little girl for herself, one she was unwilling to wake up from?
Perhaps there were indeed events that had actually occurred within it, but they had definitely undergone exaggerated embellishment.
What did I say? A super landmine-type girl?
Whoever marries her will be blessed for life!
But thinking about it, it's not impossible. A 1.4-meter legal loli who is even shorter than Abi...
"Gege, are you listening?"
Abigail, who was maintaining a positional barrier to withstand Tsukishiro Yuki's magical attacks, puffed up her cheeks, seemingly dissatisfied with Suke ignoring her.
"Oh, oh, I am, I am."
"Actually, it's normal. Abi, you don't know, but this Great Witch has indeed performed the great deed of 'sacrificing herself to save humanity'."
Patting his head, Suke answered Abigail's question.
"Eh? Her?"
"Mn. In a certain timeline, the Great Witch Tsukishiro Yuki abandoned her vengeance of genocide. Instead, she extracted the Witch Factor she had spent six hundred years spreading across all humanity—which was originally intended to destroy them."
"In the end, she chose to end her own life."
"Don't you feel this is very similar to the deeds of that 'Son'?"
Gathering the "sins" of all humanity upon oneself, and then destroying them.
Although these "sins" were arranged by her, this was beyond reproach.
Ancient sages once said: A feud of a hundred generations can still be avenged, let alone a hatred of genocide?
And for Tsukishiro Yuki to be able to let go of hatred and redeem humanity,
Although on the surface it looked like she had eaten Sakuraba Emma—that Hypno-shroom—and her brain had gone haywire,
Suke knew that this was an inevitability caused by her nature of "kindness".
She merely needed a step down, that's all.
"To think there was actually such a thing."
"That is also a Big Sister with a tragic background then. It's just that Abi doesn't like her personality too much..."
"Alright, alright, leave the rest to me."
Suke signaled for Abigail and Witch Emma to stand down. He intended to personally cross swords with Tsukishiro Yuki, who had already become obsessed.
"You came, my Animus."
"You will agree with me, right?"
Another variable appeared.
Tsukishiro Yuki gazed at Suke, who was coming to face her. Unlike the "reincarnations" in her cognition,
This time, the man's eyes clearly held more complex emotions.
——That was a look only the man who had spent six hundred years with her on the sickbed would possess.
It was also once their wordless tacit understanding.
"I said that's enough, Little Yuki."
"You just said the game of little girls playing house ends here, but I don't see any intention from you to end it."
"...!"
Tsukishiro Yuki's pupils constricted, looking at Suke as if in disbelief.
"Animus, I don't understand what you mean by these words."
"You clearly understand me, right? Understanding my revenge against humanity, and the necessity of human extinction."
"Moreover, I am doing all this for the sake of you and me, who are equally 'lonely'."
"We are originally the same kind of people, why don't..."
"We are not the same, Little Yuki."
Suke shook his head, weighing his tone:
"My 'solitude' is solitude itself. Just as humans are social animals, finding someone to communicate with is my instinct to overcome loneliness."
"But you are different."
"Your 'solitude' uses hatred as its source of power; it is a false solitude produced by self-deception and blinding oneself."
"Hikami Meruru was raised by you since childhood and viewed you almost as a mother. Emma and Hiro also once regarded you as a best friend. Your solitude is nothing more than self-deception where you forcibly pluck yourself out of the concept of 'human'."
"You say Witches and humans are not the same race, but in my view, the difference between Witches and people is more akin to people of different skin colors within humanity."
"Of course, I have no intention of stopping your revenge. I just want to say..."
"As long as you want to break free from 'solitude', Little Yuki, you actually can do so at any time."
