I am Satou. Young children are often described as innocent and pure beings, but because of their innocence, some can commit cruel acts out of curiosity. When you see such children, I believe it is the responsibility of adults to gently admonish them.

“Why?”
Beyond the jet-black and rainbow-colored sparks, the young face of God Parion twisted in displeasure.
It was because I had interfered with her killing of the three gods.
To be honest, while I didn’t mind helping gods like God Karion, who taught me the “miasma barrier,” or God Urion, who was noisy but harmless, I wasn’t keen on assisting the arrogant God Heralon. However, since he was also one of the gods protecting the human world from external threats, I helped him as well.
“What is that? A sword that can resist a Divine Sword? Strange.”
God Parion stared at the rainbow-colored sword I held.
“This is the Holy Demon Divine Sword Pendragon.”
It was a sword made by fusing the Holy Demon Divine Sword Pendragon, which had been offered at Boruehart and had somehow returned to storage, with the “Fang of the Dragon Deity” found inside the storage, using primal magic.
I was worried whether I could use primal magic with my divine power depleted, but in the end, it was no problem.
Primal magic requires an immense amount of magic power. It seems the reason my divine power was depleted was that my magic power (MP) had been minimal after my level was stripped, and I had been compensating with divine power.
By sharing the magic power of my subordinate Arisa and connecting a magic power tank that was also in the storage, I could use primal magic without any issues.
“I don’t know such a sword.”
God Parion carelessly swung down the Divine Reaping scythe.
I dodged it by positioning my unit.
While she tried to kill the three gods again, I approached and interfered once more by unit positioning.
“Don’t get in my way.”
I parried the Divine Sword slashed at me while turning around with my Holy Demon Divine Sword.
Unfortunately, it seemed the Divine Sword was slightly stronger.
“The strongest blade (nothing can cut it).”
“The wish is unattainable.”
God Urion shouted, and an indigo light rained down on God Parion, dispelling the blue light that had been covering her scythe.
Still, the scythe’s blow shattered God Karion’s barrier, but its momentum stopped there, preventing God Parion’s wish to destroy God Karion along with the barrier.
“I can’t kill.”
God Parion stomped like a child in frustration.
—Huh?
Was it just my imagination, or was part of God Parion’s blue aura stagnating, and the once beautiful rainbow-colored scythe beginning to emit a jet-black aura like a Divine Sword?
“Why! Parion! Why is this happening!”
God Heralon, having regained his posture, shouted and charged at God Parion.
Alright, I’ll use him as bait and focus on disarming God Parion’s weapon.
“Parion should reflect on her actions. Karion says so too.”
God Urion joined God Heralon’s side.
Though God Parion’s authority seemed superior to the other three gods’, even with me included, facing four against one was tough, and we began to lose ground.
“It’s unfair to gang up on me.”
God Parion said something as if forgetting her previous deeds.
Even with her lips pursed, her offensive did not stop; the fierce battle continued.
Despite some dangerous moments, my Holy Demon Divine Sword and God Urion’s indigo sword managed to entangle the scythe, allowing God Heralon to grab the arm of God Parion holding the Divine Sword.
Parion’s mouth twisted into a displeased frown.
“This is where your mischief ends, Parion.”
“Heralon is right. Parion should let go of that dangerous weapon.”
“I’ve remembered—”
I saw her mouth lift slightly as she looked down.
“‘Destruction.’”
—This is bad.
The moment God Parion uttered the sacred phrase of the Divine Sword, I kicked God Heralon away, grabbed God Urion, and used unit positioning to escape to a safe zone.
In my vision after teleporting, I saw God Heralon’s legs being consumed by destruction.
