Mob Protagonist ~ Mob in the Novel But There is a Problem

Chapter 1.2. The Prologue Is An Epilogue! (2)

Even if she gather the power of the gods and seal it with a divine instrument, as before, people were powerless before the completely resurrected Ashtaroth.

Ashtaroth was happy with its power. And with joy, he taught the weak mortal a lesson.

The human nodded her head, their mouth twisted into a grin, and she looked pleased. Ashtaroth nods at this expression and asks what kind of reward she would like. It is a complete revival of himself. Its reward must also be great.

“Come, mortal. Say your reward. Do you want to be my servant? Then I will give you power as the first of my retainer. Or do you want the wisdom of magic? I will give you the knowledge of the abyss.”

The human replies to the demon god that asks what she wants.

She replied with unexpected words.

“He was incomplete in the novel. I think he was incomplete because the hero had a hidden Sacred Treasure. I thought I remembered that an incomplete resurrection made him has less than half its power.”

“………”

She said she was wondering if it was a perfect resurrection. That’s right. Without a Sacred Artifact, Ashtaroth’s ability would be less than half. The items number she has is also important, but if she doesn’t have all of them, Ashtaroth’s power will be less than half. For him to be completely revived, she had to collect all the Sacred Artifacts.

Ashtaroth was amazed at how skeptical what the human said was. Ashtaroth would think that she was an irreverent human. Ashtaroth thought he could not trust the human’s word, and he certainly did not.

(疑り深い人間だと呆れる。アシュタロトの言葉を信用できないのかと、不遜な奴めと思うが、そうではなかった。)

.

“In the novel, I didn’t think it was a Sacred Artifact with weak power, and neither the protagonist nor the adversary thought it was a Sacred Artifact that sealed Ashtaroth. So the enemy side, who thought they had gathered everything, and the protagonists, who were not expecting it, were surprised, and then the incomplete Ashtaroth was defeated, the resealing was done by the saint, and the world was at peace. It was a happy-go-lucky end, you know?”

It’s a template, the human says, not quite sure what she’s talking about.

“What are you talking about?”

“In the game, there was a hidden route, secretly stealing the main character’s ring, and a secret boss was ending where Ashtaroth was completely revived. The reward drops from that fight are good, and the special ability, so I can unlock the third job. It’s amazing.”

The human strung their words together, heedless of Ashtaroth’s dubiousness. Their words cheerfully spread across the room.

“But if you don’t beat him within 10 minutes, there’s no third job setting off. Well, it’s like, why don’t people change jobs, but it’s a hassle. As a challenging element, it is available but not usable. It was a reward that tickled my collector’s fancy.”

The human calls up a clock in the palm of their hand and presses it down with a click. It must be a stopwatch. Tick-tock, tick-tock, the stopwatch begins to tick away the time.

“So, goodbye, Secret Boss-san. Good for you for having a game scenario. Usshsihshi.”

The human smiles happily, and Ashtaroth finally understands.

“I don’t understand, but I understand your irreverent words to defeat me. Die.”

Pointing his index finger, Ashtaroth shows irreverent human power. He realized that this was the person who was trying to defeat him.

[Extreme Flame]

Flames like the sun shoot out from the index finger, burning the air and distorting space as he strikes the human. If even a fragment of the fire sparks hit the human being, the high heat of several hundred million degrees will extinguish them, leaving no trace.

It was supposed to.

“What?”

However, surprisingly, the [Extreme Flame] was absorbed and disappeared as soon as it touched the human being. He couldn’t believe its eyes at this unbelievable sight.

“Oh, I absorb the flame attribute. Sorry.”

“Then how about this?”

[Shinra 4 Element Polar Wave]

From the weapons he held by the four hands, roaring divine thunder, absolute zero that freezes everything, a storm of wind blades that cuts through anything, and a tsunami of sand that petrifies all living things are released and directed at the human.

But the result is unbelievable. As soon as the magic touched the human, it was absorbed, then vanished without leaving any trace of its activation.

“Sorry. I’ll rephrase. I absorb everything but the universal attribute.”

“That power is impossible for a human being. Who are you?”

Ashtaroth finally realized that the human in front of him was not human. He did not know how she had hidden it, but he felt the immense power in her body and finally prepared itself to ask with a stern face.

“My second job is ‘God’. And my main job is…”

The human chuckles as she removes her hood.

“My Top Up job is ‘Old God’. Part of the old gods.”

The power of chaos spread around the Old God, melting the floor into mush and distorting the space.

“……, Old Gods! You guys should have disappeared beyond the universe!”

Ashtaroth shudders in fear as he feels the unmistakable Old God, the power of chaos.

“Yeah, that was expensive. Then I’ll try my best to defeat you within 10 minutes.”

The one who called herself the Old God replied to the astonished Ashtaroth in a light tone and began to fight. ｂｅ𝚍ｎｏｖｅ𝚕．ｃｏｍ

The Third Magic Academy boasts a name in the Japanese Magic Empire. In the middle of the night, light covered the academy and disappeared with an earthquake.

Strangely enough, the guards and those who remained until night were outside the academy, and there were no casualties.

There was no trace of the destroyed institute, leaving only a large hole 100 meters deep.

The earthquake that occurred at the time of the disappearance lasted for a long time, and people thought that it was not an earthquake but some kind of ritual magic, but people never found the cause after the investigation team looked into it.

However, the earthquake lasted only seven minutes. That was all that were people known.
