The Paladin on the Infinite Tour

"Of course, you stay."

Ike Yuyu said while looking towards the door: "Sushang, remember to protect Alicia."

Snap!

There was a sound outside the door, and then Li Sushang opened the door and walked in: "What, little uncle, you have discovered me a long time ago. Fortunately, I think I hid it so well."

"Do you think I can't hear your breathing and footsteps? - By the way, Lancelot."

"I'm here."

Lancelot appeared in response: "What are your orders, my lord?"

"You and Su Shang should stay together. Although I don't think there is any need to continue the civil war at this stage, but now that Marquis Vauban has come to Japan, we are bound to be attacked by him sooner or later. In addition, Go up to the escaped leader Luo Hao - of course I will come back as soon as possible, but if you are attacked before then..."

"I will do my best to protect this lady, and I swear by the gun in my hand!" Lancelot vowed.

"I can rest assured if I leave it to you. You should also pay attention to Guinevere. If she confronts the God-Slayer, she will be beaten soon."

"yes."

After explaining everything like this, Exia took a deep breath.

——[I am the shadow that swallows the world]

——[I am the light that covers the world]

The high-speed divine word directly used the incarnation, and the magic knife that tore apart the dimension instantly appeared in Exia's hand.

"I'm ready, Miss Aige. Do you need me to use the red dragon's incarnation simultaneously?"

"No, no need. After all, you are not going to a parallel world. Just the power of light and shadow will suffice - then just tear open the space channel as usual, and I will guide you on the way."

Buzz————!

The magic sword was unsheathed and swung twice, and a cross-shaped dimensional crack immediately appeared in the room.

After looking back at Li Sushang and others, Aixia gave the three of them a reassuring smile: "Then I'll set off and I'll be back soon. Until then, you guys stay here and don't wander around."

"I know~~~ Junior uncle, don't worry! Remember to come back soon for dinner!"

Li Sushang smiled and waved.

Then, Exia stepped into the dimensional crack and closed the entrance behind her——

"————"

A uniform golden light appeared in his eyes.

It is the guide of Shajo’s love song.

"Huh... let's go."

Go to the realm of the God of Destiny!

57. The inevitable battle

The road to the realm of the God of Destiny is surprisingly long.

According to Sajo Aige, there are different [levels] in the secluded world, just like floors. The secluded world he arrived at before was considered the top level, and the place where the God of Destiny is is. It is at the deepest level, and there is no direct path to it.

If you want to go there, you can only move through levels in the secluded world. And even if she has the ability to tear apart dimensions and open up space passages, it will take a while for Exia to get there - no matter how fast the direct elevator is, it can't be there in an instant, right?

Of course, there may also be a reason why the power of [light and shadow] is suppressed, making the space channel opened up unstable.

The somatosensory time probably lasted about ten minutes.

"Here we are."

With these words of Sajo Aige, the golden guidance in Exia's eyes disappeared.

Alexia also stopped and drew her sword to cut out the exit to the outside world. As soon as she left the space channel, Exia suddenly felt a familiar yet unfamiliar aura.

The gray world is coming.

"...Is it Youshi again?"

"Yes. Although it is called the realm of the God of Destiny, it is still located in the secluded world. Next, please carefully meditate on the concept of [you have arrived in the realm of the God of Destiny] in your mind. If you don't If you truly realize this, even if you arrive there on the physical coordinates, that place will not appear in front of you.”

"is that so?"

Alexia followed Sajo Aige's advice and imagined in her mind what it would be like to arrive at the Destiny Realm.

And at the next moment——

"..."

The scene in front of Alexia changed.

The [grey] that filled the entire world gradually became thin and transparent, and was replaced by a [carpet] on the empty ground. I don’t know when a [carpet] appeared.

The carpet has no end in sight, no matter the length or width, even with Axia's eyesight, it is impossible to see where the end is.

The overall color is very bright, and it seems to be woven with threads of various colors. There are colors that Ixia is familiar with, but there are also colors that Ixia has never seen before.

While these countless brightly colored silk threads are woven into a carpet, they also weave numerous geometric figures on the carpet.

At a rough glance, the number is in the thousands, tens of thousands... no, it should be more, it can be called endless! And no graphics are duplicated!

——[Infinite carpets with countless different graphics]

What appeared before Exia's eyes was such a thing.

"Is this...the realm of the God of Destiny?"

Alexia stepped on the carpet.

"I thought it would be a palace or something, but I didn't expect that there was only a carpet..."

"These carpets are [Destiny] itself, Prince." Shajo Aige pointed at Ixia's feet, "For example, the figure you are stepping on now is the fate of [Noah's Ark], which has been Determined matters will not be changed at will. The adjacent piece is the fate of the [World-Destroying Flood]. In addition-"

Shajo Aige introduced the contents on the carpet to Alexia in detail.

From the distant mythological era to the modern era in the past ten years, almost all major events throughout the ages can be found on carpets.

Just like Shajo Aige said, this carpet is the entire [destiny], and it is also the entire [history] condensed into [time].

"...And where is my enemy?"

Withdrawing her mind from the carpet of fate, Exia looked around.

Since it is the domain of the God of Destiny, then the God of Destiny who made Rama a hero and ordered him to shoot Alicia should be here.

Where are people?

"She's already here."

Shajo Ai Ge points in a certain direction.

Looking in that direction, Alexia, who could not see anything just now, suddenly saw a figure.

She was a girl of about seven or eight years old, with shoulder-length blond hair and very white and tender skin, but she was completely naked. Her delicate and beautiful face was devoid of any emotion, like a doll, and her eyes were empty. No light, no sparkle.

(She is...the God of Destiny?)

"To be more correct, she should be [the promoter of destiny]. The concept of destiny has existed since the ancient times when the human race and the human soul were born. It did not follow after the emergence of the concept of the God of Destiny. She appears. She is just the weaver who weaves the threads of fate into something, not the one who makes the threads."

Shajo Aige explained.

"Based on its nature, I'm afraid there is no point in knocking it down, Prince."

(Eh?)

"Even if she, the God of Destiny, is eliminated, some other God of Destiny will automatically become the new [Promoter of Destiny]. In the end, it is impossible to completely eradicate Destiny."

(Then we...no, that's not right. Even if it cannot be completely eradicated, it is certainly enough to solve the situation we are facing now.)

"Well, that's true."

(Then——)

——[I am the strongest! Those who hold victory in their hands and save the world and overcome the apocalypse】

——[All evils, all disasters, fear me]

——[Save the world, execute! 】

“Zheng————————!!!”

Chanting the final incarnation of the Messiah's Word Spirit, Aixia's hand suddenly lit up with a bright light!

Reaching into the light, she completely pulled out the golden sword burning with blazing rainbow flames. Ixia pointed at the God of Destiny not far away: "Finally let me come to you, God of Destiny. I I'm here to settle the score with you! You ordered Rama to continue his wars for thousands of years, and you just ordered him to shoot Alicia - I call the former, but I won't treat the latter as if it didn't happen."

"Let's settle it properly! - Liya!"

【yes! 】

The rainbow flames ignited behind Ixia!

The Valkyrie holding a golden sword—Artoria Pendragon—appears!

"This may be our last battle in this world. Only this time I will not impose any restrictions on you, nor will I impose any restrictions on myself. I will use all my strength! We -"

Boom!

Before Alexia could finish her heroic words, a sudden crash suddenly reached the Destiny Domain!

Then, in the empty void, a certain figure quietly appeared in front of the three people of Exia.

"...I didn't expect to be called directly to this place. It's really surprising, and..."

The visitor’s eyes fell on Exia.

"I didn't expect you to come directly to this place, Exia."

"...Rama."

The brave man holding the white-gold divine sword to annihilate the Demon King appeared directly in front of Exia!

58. Raise the sword of rebellion to God

Why is Rama here?

Alexia immediately had such doubts.

"Are you confused that I will show up?"

Rama saw through Aixia's thoughts, with a tired smile on his face: "The God of Destiny is the being who governs all fates. He can make people who are destined to you appear in front of you through the threads of fate. I and I I don’t need to say more about the fate between you, right?”

(Is it like summoning a servant? I became the catalyst for the god of destiny to summon Rama?)

"The Pusher of Destiny is not good at fighting. Fighting gods and god-killers is not her specialty. Therefore, in order to deal with the demon king who invaded her domain, she will naturally send out the most powerful warrior-that is, me."

"...Do I really want to fight you after going around in circles?"

Alexia couldn't hold herself any longer and laughed twice as if she couldn't stand it anymore.

"Originally, I wanted to come here directly to cut off the fate of [Destroy the Demon King] from you and end your war that has lasted for thousands of years, but in the end I still had to fight you... It took a big detour. Circle, are you going to let me return to the starting point in the end?"

In fact, you can’t say that.

At least compared to fighting in the real world, there is no need to worry about destroying the world here, and you can fight with all your strength without any worries.

But the result of going around in a circle and coming back again...

"You want to cut off my destiny?"

However, Aixia's words stunned Rama.

"Why?"

"ah?"

This rhetorical question also stunned Alexia for a moment: "Because... aren't you exhausted to death? Don't you want to continue fighting? I heard Lancelot say that you have already been exhausted." Tired of this battle—could she be wrong?”

Is it Lancelot?

Rama smiled a little nostalgically and said: "......That's right, hahaha, she is still so sharp."

"Rama...so, are you serious?"

"Yeah, really."

Putting down the divine sword of salvation in his hand, Rama sighed very tiredly: "Thousands of years have passed since I accepted the fate of annihilating the devil. At the beginning, I did fulfill this mission wholeheartedly. . Defeat the tyrannical Demon King and save the people oppressed by the Demon King... This is what I have done since the mythical age, so I was passionate about this task and mission at that time."
