Chapter 57 - A Gaze Cast Upon [Nihility]

"How... I'll disappear?"

Olga Marie began to panic upon hearing Lev's words.

She had never imagined that the reason she was in this world was because her body back in Chaldea had already been shattered to pieces.

"But this is just too pitiful. For her, who dedicated her entire life to Chaldea, to end up like this... Come, Olga." Lev raised his hand, and a golden prism that had appeared on the ground at some point flew into his grasp. "Let me show you what Chaldea looks like now."

With a snap of his fingers, Lev revealed an image of Chaldeas, the golden-red orb in the control room that now resembled molten lava.

Or rather, like a sun.

"This is fake, isn't it, Lev..."

"It's real. It took me quite a bit of effort to connect two different timelines. And right now, if Mo Wang weren't holding you, you'd have already been dragged in and disintegrated," Lev said to Olga with absolute inhumanity.

"As expected, you truly are a completely illogical fellow."

"There are plenty more illogical things to come," Mo Wang said, holding Olga Marie tighter. "I'm taking her with me today. I'd like to see who dares to stop me!"

Lev frowned. No matter how dense he was, he could tell something was wrong.

"How can this be? What did you do to her?"

Lev looked at Mo Wang. He had already opened the gateway, so why was Olga Marie completely unaffected, standing there motionlessly?

Even if Mo Wang was counteracting the suction, she shouldn't be completely still, right?

"Oh, it's nothing. I just gave the Director a little buff. It seems to be working now."

Mo Wang grinned at Lev. This feeling, watching the villain get thwarted, was truly satisfying!

"A buff? What on earth are you talking about?" Lev had no idea what Mo Wang was saying.

"It just means you're behind the times, old man. You don't even know what a buff is." Mo Wang was about to say more, but Olga Marie elbowed him.

"Cut the crap. What did you do to me?" Olga Marie urged Mo Wang. She also wanted to know what he had done without her knowledge.

"It's simple, Director. I just used my magical energy to turn your soul into a physical entity. To put it simply, I turned you into a ghost! You don't have to worry about dying at all~"

Mo Wang finally revealed what kind of "buff" he had given Olga Marie.

Having read the script, Mo Wang knew that after this instance, Olga would die due to having no physical body.

So, he simply used his own magical energy to transform the Director into a state similar to a Servant.

In Type-Moon terms, it was as if Mo Wang had used the Third Magic to materialize her soul. Of course, this couldn't be compared to the real Third Magic, which granted infinite magical energy.

Although Mo Wang didn't know the so-called Third Magic, thankfully, his neighbor Caesar had plenty of methods for turning humans into undead.

Mo Wang had basically turned the Director into her current state with little to no effort.

"As I thought. An existence like you is truly an obstacle to my Lord."

Seeing what Mo Wang had done, Lev's face gradually darkened.

"So? Are you going to take me out for your clown of a master? Heh, the Incineration of Human Order?"

Mo Wang sneered at Lev without holding back. In his eyes, both Goetia and the Lev before him were nothing but clowns.

"You... how did you know?" Lev's expression finally showed a major shift as he stared at Mo Wang in disbelief.

"How did I know? There are plenty of people who know about your plan. Have you never thought about it? With a plan this big, why haven't those powerful gods and the Counter Force's subordinates made a move against you yet? They're all just watching the show for entertainment."

Mo Wang said, letting go of Olga Marie and walking towards Lev.

"To be honest, I find your so-called Incineration of Human Order completely uninteresting. Remaking human history? Can you, who are completely incapable of understanding humanity, really achieve that? You keep saying that humanity is beyond saving, but in the end, you still need humans. You have no imagination at all."

The Incineration of Human Order? Hah, it was just a third-rate workplace melodrama produced with a cosmic-level budget!

The seemingly impressive Incineration of Human Order was just a garbage plan cooked up by a broken AI abandoned by its boss. After a whole three thousand years, this was all it could come up with?

It claimed to be "pruning" human history, but it turned into the most ridiculous case of "ineffective overtime" ever seen online: 3000 years of overtime in exchange for a seven-day speedrun ending.

Even the labor laws would have to be revised overnight to include a "Demon God Pillar Protection Clause"!

It claimed to "precisely incinerate the foundation of human order," but its actual execution was like a drunkard deleting a database: on one hand, it called humanity a bug, while its own code was a dead loop of nested "if-else" statements.

When its power was finally cut by the client (Solomon), its system log was filled with "ERROR: Failed to comprehend the profound art of human slacking."

It wanted to use eternity to deny the cycle of life and death?

That's hilarious herself. It was like using an Excel spreadsheet to deconstruct love.

You couldn't even figure out "the old Director who worked to death" or "the junior who jumped into the Sea of Imaginary Numbers for love," and you still have the delusion to write an epitaph for human civilization?

I suggest you retake "Introduction to the Art of Slacking"—true eternity is a Coke after work on a Friday, not your light-polluting tentacle PowerPoint!

Lev's face was a mixture of dark and pale, it was hard to tell if he was angered by Mo Wang's sharp tongue or simply unsure of his identity.

It felt as if Mo Wang knew every detail of their plan.

"Who are you? Are you sent by the Counter Force?" Lev asked warily.

"Sigh~ To be honest, I'd love to have two little lolis backing me up. But unfortunately, my boss is just a big, silent black ball."

"You... what did you say?" At that moment, looking at Mo Wang, Lev suddenly felt an extremely dangerous presence.

"Want to see our boss? Let me warn you, if you really see it, you might not be able to come back."

In that instant, everything before Lev's eyes disappeared.

His body seemed to be floating in a river of stars.

"What... is that?!"

Before Lev's eyes, a massive sphere seemed to be devouring everything in existence. All light and heat, even concepts, were being reduced to nothingness within it.

It was an existence that even he could not comprehend.

In that darkness, he seemed to see the end of the universe.

"That's my boss. We usually call him... [IX]."

At that moment, Mo Wang turned to Lev beside him and let out a vicious grin.
