In the midst of that horrifying scene that looked as if it was the final battle, a coin fell from far above.
That coin…… That white gold coin, mysteriously never bounced as it fell to the ground, coming to a quick stop…… with the “heads” on top.
[……Guhh.]
[This settles it.]
The result meant that Shiro-san had won, making Eden-san’s face twist in frustration. After a few moments of silence, Eden-san relaxed her shoulders.
[……I’m not saying I don’t have any complaints, but the result has been decided…… and I wouldn’t say any objections to it. I’m going to quietly back off this time.]
[Well then, let’s sign a contract regarding this matter.]
[……I understand.]
Let alone what they have decided upon, I didn’t even know what was going on, so I just bewilderedly looked at the development of events. Thereupon, Alice appeared by my side…… the main body was still holding onto that cylindrical barrier, so I guess this one should be her clone.
[……Haahhh…… This is really tough.]
[Errr, good work? In the end, I had no idea what was going on…… all I knew is that the situation was bad.]
[Well, to explain what was happening, those two were trying to manipulate the outcome of the coin by using all of their abilities until it fell. However, Shallow Vernal-sama winning and Eden-san winning can’t exist at the same time. In that case, when those two forces clashed with each other, an extreme contradiction of events occurs, bending the principles and concepts……]
[I- I see…… I don’t get it.]
[To put it bluntly, the two of us were so powerful that the world was about to break down, and the three of us were trying to suppress their powers from affecting the world.]
[……Thank you so much for your good work.]
I didn’t understand what those principles and stuff that she was talking about, but I clearly understood that the world was in trouble earlier. Kuro, Alice, and FFate-san are the heroes who saved the world.
As I was thinking about this, as if their contract signing was finished, Shiro-san lightly waved her hand…… and the cylindrical barrier vanished.
[Wha!? What are you doing!? Shallow Vernal-sama!!! Even if we’re holding onto the space, that white going coin still has your nonsensical power———— It might explode!]
[!? ]
Immediately after Alice screamed, the fallen white gold coin leapt into the air, emitting a dazzling light…… “and fell back to the ground as if nothing had happened”.
Tilting my head at the fact that nothing happened despite the urgency in Alice’s voice, I called out to Alice who, before I knew it, was in front of me, looking like she was trying to protect me.
[A- Alice!? Are you alright!?]
[……Eh? Yes, I’m alright. I was just a little startled. It’s safe now, don’t worry now.]
[R- Really?]
[Yese, it’s perfectly safe. It looks like things are settled here, so you can go back to greeting people, Kaito-san. Now, let’s go!]
[Eh? Wait…… I still don’t know why the heck that happened……]
[I’ll check on that later. Now, now, let’s go. We’re losing time here, you know?]
What is it? I was a little uncomfortable with the way Alice was acting, but judging from the way she was talking, it was probably best not to ask any more questions.
If it’s something I should know, Alice will tell me about it, and more importantly, I trust her…… so I’ll just go along with her.
Shaking off my discomfort, I followed Alice’s words and went back to greeting the attendees.
After Kaito left the scene, Shallow Vernal and Eden also disappeared, leaving only Kuromueina and Fate. A few moments later, Alice’s clone appeared beside them.
The three of them looked somewhat pale, as if they had seen something unbelievable.
[……I had thought it would be quite outrageous when Eden-san went that far in describing it…… but it was far greater than I imagined. That’s Shallow Vernal-sama’s ultimate power…… “Epilogue” huh……]
[Unnn, I’m surprised too. It was completely different from the time I held it…… Such power exists huh.]
[N- No, Shall-tan and Underworld King looked like you both know what’s going on…… but what the heck is that!? What in the world is happening?]
The three of them are talking about how, due to the contradiction of events, Shallow Vernal and Eden’s power that had converged within the white gold coin should have exploded…… and how Shallow Vernal “brought an end to that phenomenon” with her power.
[That was Shallow Vernal-sama’s…… power to bring anything to its end.]
[……What do Shalltear think of it?]
[……To be honest, I’m really relieved knowing that Shallow Vernal-sama is on Kaito-san’s side.]
After a moment of silence, Alice continued.
[……I’m honestly confident that I can win against an omniscient and omnipotent God. It will take me a lot of time to bring out the power to make it possible…… but the odds are still in our favor. However, against that…… that’s impossible. There was a small part of me that wondered if I had some way to deal with her, but after personally seeing her power……]
[You’re right…… Even after I saw her use her power before my eyes, “I didn’t understand anything”…… When did she activate it, how much power it held…… Not knowing anything, before I knew it, everything “just ended”.]
[……I mean, I thought Epilogue would be something rough, like some death beam that destroys the whole world…… but it seems like it’s even possible for her to target only one aspect of a phenomenon. Good grief, I’m really glad that Shallow Vernal-sama isn’t Kaito-sama’s enemy.]
Needless to say, both Alice and Kuromueina are overwhelmingly powerful beings. Their overall ability isn’t worse than a World Creating-God.
However, even with the power these girls held, they could fathom how powerful Shallow Vernal’s Epilogue is…… Yes, clearly speaking, the girls weren’t able to see Shallow Vernal use Epilogue at all.
They only became aware that Shallow Vernal had used her power when they saw the results.
[Shallow Vernal-sama really is amazing. For her to possess such power…… Well, I don’t know if that ability could just be described as “an outrageous power” anymore.]
[You’re right. It really is on another level…… She’s one outrageous God.]
