The roar of battle occasionally came from afar.
However, Bai Chen automatically shielded the sound, and instead began to ponder a countermeasure to deal with Siegfried.
Bai Chen entered the Chat Group.
Bai Chen: All-powerful group members, I'm back again.
After waiting a few seconds, a reply quickly appeared.
Railgun: "What's wrong, what's wrong? How's your friend?"
Spirit of Time: "So fast, don't you have classes?"
Railgun: "It's the weekend today."
Da Gu Ao Cheng Tang: "Ahem, the topic has already gone off track."
Bai Chen: "My friend's matter is temporarily resolved, but..."
Railgun: "I hate people who only say half of what they mean."
Spirit of Time: "Seconded."
Da Gu Ao Cheng Tang: "I think the situation shouldn't be too optimistic."
Bai Chen: "Da Gu guessed correctly. That evil spirit transferred into my body. Now I can't find a suitable way to expel it."
Railgun: "That's a serious problem."
Spirit of Time: "Even the power of the spirit crystal isn't working?"
Bai Chen: "It works, but it can only suppress it, not eliminate it."
He was also a bit depressed.
Siegfried possessed him before he gained power. If it had been afterwards, Siegfried would not have been able to succeed.
Railgun: "Can you communicate with the evil spirit? If you're nice, maybe it'll work."
Bai Chen: "Not likely."
Bai Chen hadn't communicated with Siegfried.
But the personalities of Heretic Gods are extremely capricious, and because they are forcibly summoned from the divine realm by ritual, the erosion of madness is quite severe.
Although he could maintain his sanity, his words and actions regarded only divine beings as ants.
And now, he was actually suppressed by a mere ant, so how could his attitude be good?
Although he wasn't speaking now, Bai Chen knew there were only two outcomes.
Either you die, or I perish.
If this continued, he probably wouldn't last much longer.
Either he would gain a new spirit crystal or other abilities that could completely suppress him, or there was only one last method left.
And he also knew that the current group members would not be able to come up with a suitable solution.
Pao Jie was a middle school student from a scientific city.
Tokisaki Kurumi was just a high school student who accidentally obtained a spirit crystal.
Da Gu, not to mention, was dumb, and together with Shinjoh, they were known as the 'Crash Kings' and 'Logistics Public Enemies'.
Amuro was also unreliable. Judging from the pool, the plot had only progressed to shortly after he started piloting the Gundam.
"In the end, I still have to rely on myself."
Bai Chen sighed.
Bai Chen: "I've thought of a way, but there will be some risks."
Spirit of Time: "Risks?"
Bai Chen: "If it's serious, you might permanently lose me, your handsome and capable group member."
Railgun: "At a time like this, you still have the mood to joke..."
Spirit of Time: "If I could go there, I should be able to help you."
Date A Live World.
Tokisaki Kurumi stroked the cat, a worried expression on her face.
Her time ability was very versatile. If she were there, she might find a more suitable method.
Da Gu Ao Cheng Tang: "As long as you believe in the light, you will definitely survive!"
Railgun: "Calm down, don't make a decision too hastily."
Bai Chen: "..."
Bai Chen: "If you act like this, can I assume you think I will definitely fail?"
Bai Chen: "But still, thank you all."
After saying that, he closed the Chat Group, temporarily preventing outside influences from affecting him.
The method to deal with Siegfried was very simple.
This was the Campione World. According to the setting, as long as a human slays a Heretic God, the 'Usurpation Ring' that controls the God Slayer reincarnation ritual will automatically activate.
The first God Slaying had no restrictions.
No matter what method was used, even if one picked up a dying and defenseless Heretic God, as long as you could kill the god, you would become a God Slayer.
Almost all existing God Slayers successfully reincarnated in a similar manner.
Because "humans can never defeat gods" is an ironclad rule in this world.
Therefore, humanity's first successful God Slayer was entirely due to "luck."
Thus, a God Slayer is also one of the few "lucky ones" among billions of people, capable of creating miracles.
Killing a Heretic God makes one a God Slayer.
And what Bai Chen had to do was first kill "himself" to kill Siegfried, who was stubbornly residing in his body.
Risk and opportunity coexisted.
But Bai Chen did not hesitate.
Decisive action had always been his style.
He raised Ousatsu Kou.
"Transmigration, Chat Group, being targeted by a Heretic God—I've encountered all three. I guess no one else in this world has better luck than me."
The light radiating from his spirit crystal enveloped his entire body.
Siegfried also seemed to sense something and intensified his assault on Bai Chen's consciousness.
The blade pierced through the skin of his chest, making Bai Chen feel the pain of being impaled.
"Pathetic son of a fool, do you truly think I will let you have your way?"
Seeing that Bai Chen was serious, Siegfried immediately gave up the struggle for the body and tried to leave Bai Chen's body.
But at this moment, he was shocked to discover that his soul was locked by a strange power.
This body had clearly become a cage, trapping him.
Siegfried was a little panicked.
"You are the pathetic one."
Bai Chen revealed a sarcastic smile.
Immediately after, he used Ousatsu Kou to pierce his chest, even his heart was run through.
His body fell limply.
His spiritual power gradually dissipated like sand in the wind.
Bai Chen understood what "death" meant.
His consciousness gradually blurred, and his eyelids were hard to keep open.
..."What a crazy child."
For some reason, a strange yet sweet voice echoed in his ears.
In the last moment before his consciousness plunged into darkness.
Bai Chen smiled...
