Chapter 900

At this moment, they understood why.

That was a god.

That was a Reverse Reverse Side of the world, the embodiment of a concept.

Even just witnessing it would cause their existence as humans to uncontrollably evolve toward it, an instinctive yearning for a high-dimensional existence.

Which was becoming a familiar.

In the Third Impact of the parallel world, all of humanity became Apostles; now that they thought about it, the essence was that they were being ascended to godhood—no, it was caused by the radiation from Lilith, who had returned to her true form as a god.

In essence, they had become familiars of the god Lilith.

And as the divine nature became more deeply ingrained, they would, like Apostles, instinctively want to return to their origin—Adam.

And as it happened.

The Demon God itself was a local god conceived by the world, triggered by the dark will.

For them humans, it was undoubtedly the origin.

"So... why are we okay?"

Watching giant beasts rise in the distant city, Misato Katsuragi said tremblingly.

Those were clearly humans who had become familiars (Apostles).

But unlike the Third Impact, where they sublimated into EVAs, those golden beast pupils and dark red armored bodies were clearly evolving toward an unknown Demon God.

"Because we are Chaldea investigators; through cruel training, our will has flowed through every cell and every particle of ours. Our bodies belong to us and no longer belong to the world."

Kaji Ryoji took a deep breath and slowly drew the katana at his waist.

"Everyone, disperse in groups of three, centering on the battlefield and extending four hundred miles outward, isolate internal and external influences with all your might, and evacuate the crowd as much as possible."

The deformation happened first in the cities near the scene; the outer layers wouldn't be so fast.

"Yes!!"

Everyone stared at the divine might that kept impacting their cell transplants, gritting their teeth and nodding.

Even the peripheral members had eyes full of determination and resolve.

Their will wasn't as great as the monsters who were full members, who even had to save the multiverse's humans.

But in terms of the resolve to protect their homeland, they were inferior to no one.

A tragic atmosphere spread instantly.

Everyone knew that this would be a bitter battle with almost no possibility of survival.

The battlefield of gods was certainly not their place.

But just those giant beasts that had become human familiars—each one was a formidable enemy, not to mention the number was beyond counting?

Once they went, they probably wouldn't be coming back.

But...

One head after another lifted up, looking proudly toward the direction of Chaldea.

They were the Chaldea warriors defending human history...

"Wait!"

Suddenly.

A trembling voice interrupted them.

It was Kaworu Nagisa.

It could only be said that he was worthy of being Adam's reincarnation; the bruises and swelling on his face had already disappeared, and his face, handsome to the point of being demonic, looked pale as he stared into the distance, his whole person stunned.

What was that?

What the hell was that?!!!

How could such an existence exist in this world?

He was Adam's soul.

At least, the soul of one of the Adams.

Even if it wasn't the original life, it was one of the most ancient existences.

Even without Adam's memories—or rather, Adam had no memories at all, as he simply lacked sentience.

Whether it was him or Rei Ayanami, they were only born after becoming human.

As a member of the local gods, even if downgraded to a material existence, as Adam's soul, he still had some traits.

As long as it was something this Adam had witnessed, knowledge could naturally emerge in his mind when he saw it.

For example, Unit-01; at one glance, he knew it was the half-body of that bitch Lilith.

However, he swore on his personality as Adam that he had never seen this thing in his life.

So theoretically, this was indeed something foreign.

But...

Feeling that familiar divine aura, it was definitely the embodiment of a local concept of this world; this reincarnation of Adam was suddenly bewildered.

Could it be that he had slept for too long?

Did World Tree Mom give birth to a third brother with Lilith behind his back?

"That is the super-ancient Demon God Golza, a certain Reverse Reverse Side of the earth, representing lava and eruption; he was once your predecessor, the first opponent faced by the first generation of magical girls during their novice period. Even though they defeated more than two dozen stronger Demon Gods after that, none had been as difficult as this one."

Kaji Ryoji's expression carried a trace of sadness.

He recalled the peaceful figure that embraced the planet in the starry universe.

The massive amount of information made Kaworu Nagisa almost roll his eyes.

First generation of magical girls?

His predecessors?

No.

He was a male now, a girl?

And what the hell are the many Demon Gods? You mean there are dozens or even more of these things?

Mom, how many did you secretly give birth to behind my back!!!

A dream.

He must be dreaming.

"Of course, if you can retrieve the power Adam had before he was downgraded, you don't have to accept the power of a magical girl."

Looking at the reincarnation of Adam who was doubting his life, Kaji Ryoji shrugged and didn't add insult to injury.

Instead, under Kaworu Nagisa's "what do you want to do now" gaze, he raised his wrist and contacted the Chaldeas system.

"Miss BB, applying for external magical equipment..."

A girl's phantom appeared.

That lofty aura made Kaworu Nagisa's pupils shrink again.

Another god?

Or a god that hadn't been downgraded and was still a conceptual existence?

Although the human body was weak as hell, his divine essence was still there; like Adam's body and Lilith's body, they could all be called sub-gods.

It was just that Adam and Lilith were like the god-corpses that hadn't awakened when the Kings of the main world invaded.

And he was equivalent to an Otsutsuki Kaguya without the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, with only a consciousness left, and a beggar's version at that.

"Applying, disaster rating in progress..."

Seeming to realize the seriousness of the problem.

The purple-haired girl AI's voice returned to its true nature, cold but solemn.

"...... Judged as necessary for saving the world, application approved, external magical armament deployment in progress, deployment successful."

Almost the next moment.

Meteors appeared in the stratosphere, tearing through the thunderstorm and turning into radiating starlight that enveloped each Chaldea member.

"Great Source restriction lifted, connecting, connection successful, Great Source support obtained."

"Extreme Movement Technique being applied, application successful."

"Five Dragon Rotation being applied, application successful."

"Extreme Multiple Technique charging, charging successful."

"Spiritron calculation loading, loading successful, you have activated: Combat Assistance System, Tactical Coordination System, Spiritron Transfer System, Surface Information Support System..."

"Loaded sorcery: Five Senses Control, Suggestion Enhancement, Instinct Control, Magnetic Field Control, Six Extinction Dragon Rotation, Heavenly Extreme Dragon Soar, Nuclear Explosion, Retracing Origin..."

*Boom, boom, boom. *
