Like the light of the lighthouse, all of them, who had fallen into their deepest despair, thinking that they had no way to escape from this abyss-like ocean, found their hope once again.
As Cao Cao chants, his voice is extremely serene, warm, and kind, like that of a father who gently caresses and protects his child so that everything is fine.
Truth Idea.
Similar to every Longinus that existed in this world, which could go berserk and use a state known as the Juggernaut Drive, the True Longinus also had a similar state known as the Truth Idea.
However, unlike his Balance Breaker, Cao Cao couldn't control what this state would bring him, as everything was based on the will of the god that resided within this spear. More importantly, as he couldn't control it, whether the Truth Idea could work or not, everything could only be the will of God.
Wasn't it unstable, then?
While many thought so, this element of surprise was also the reason why the Truth Longinus was known as the strongest, and depending on the enemy that its user faced, it would create several effects and miracles, which could grant absolute power to annihilate their opponent or a blessing that would capture their hearts.
Then, as expected, during this critical moment, when all humanity would lose their hope, the will of god responded to Cao Cao's wish and came to the world into his body, bringing him a power that matched the living God of the bible on his mortal body.
Yes, probably. After this, Cao Cao knew that he would die; his mortal, human body couldn't contain the incredible power of the god, yet this was okay, he thought, since during his end, he would be shining brightly like a comet on that starless night sky.
His body appeared so divine, and he had become god-like. His appearance brought a shining hope to everyone who thought that they would die facing a beast known as Masa.
Their eyes lacked luster and had completely given up any hope that had rekindled once again. They were filled with excitement as they stared at Cao Cao with a gaze that would lead him out of this darkness.
Their bodies were warm, their wounds were healed, and they were filled with power!
At this moment, all of them knew that Cao Cao was about to make the impossible become possible!
To take down the beast that was about to destroy everything!
Even if they would sacrifice their lives, they would stand together with Cao Cao!
At this moment, all of them stood together behind Cao Cao, filled with a determination to bring down this devil!
Yet, while those weaklings wouldn't bring him much trouble, and Masa could kill all of them as easily as ants, his expression became complex when he looked at the True Longinus, realizing how powerful and dangerous his opponent was.
God.
As one could gain such a name, it was natural that it would definitely be known as the strongest and able to create many miracles that one couldn't imagine.
The miracle was something abstract, something that couldn't be described, and it wasn't something concrete like a human or a dog, which one could clearly understand what it was. It was because it couldn't be determined and described; thus, it was called a miracle.
Yet, unexpectedly, Masa never expected that this would be the power of the god.
'Fortunately, fortunately...'
Mass mind-manipulation.
This was the ability that Cao Cao showed after he used the Truth Idea; as the gentle light descended, it brought hope to everyone, as if their minds were manipulated, that they had hope, and it further brought their hatred to Masa.
Healing and empowerment aside, Masa didn't care, considering how zero time zero would always be zero; the change in their emotions from previously despair into a fighting spirit as they stared at them without fear made him know that he had to take down the True Longinus.
'Fortunately.'
Yes, it was fortunate that Masa brought all of them to fight in separate places, since if he hadn't done so, he could imagine that all the humanity in this universe whose minds would be affected and would categorize him as an enemy or something that should be disdained, hated, and killed.
By using the light as the medium, the will of god affected everyone's mind who was based on the light.
Frankly, if Masa wished to, he could do the same as the will of God, especially when the human was so weak, and it was just a simple order to make him the enemy of all humanity.
If he wished to, he could turn all of humanity into his most loyal servants without them being unable to do anything, yet he refrained from doing so as it wouldn't be fun.
However, the will of god had such restraints and manipulated everyone's minds directly to turn, manipulating all of them so that Masa was an enemy that everyone had to take down.
Yes, this ability was frightening, but even so, the effect of this ability might be smaller on those supernatural creatures, and it wouldn't affect those who were stronger than the god, and also those who had a certain level of power.
Yet, what if the one who was hit by that light was the angel and the fallen angel?
By then, Masa could imagine that the angel and the fallen angel would betray him and attack him and his group, and all the devils would disappear from the world, so inwardly, he was fortunate to bring the battle to a different space than them.
While there was a high chance that his allies might be hurt, it was nothing compared to the consequences of all of them being exposed in the light of the True Longinus.
Still, taking a deep breath, Masa praised sincerely, "Amazing."
Cao Cao clearly never cared about Masa's opinion, as Masa was just a devil, despite how strong Masa was. "How?"
"What do you mean by how?"
"How did you get an atomic bomb?" Cao Cao was confused, wondering how Masa could get such a dangerous weapon despite the fact that it could threaten all of humanity.
"Isn't it obvious? I get it from a human."
"How?!"
"Money." Masa smiled and said, "With money, I can buy it." He didn't lie since he really bought a nuclear bomb in the past, and he didn't lack money. Even a small country on the peninsula could get a nuclear bomb, so why couldn't he?
"...." Cao Cao.
Sighing, Masa asked, "Do you really want to save them?"
Cao Cao blinked his eyes, then nodded. "I do. This isn't the age of gods anymore. Supernatural beings have no place in this world, and it is time for humans to be the ones who live on this earth."
"But the human is the one who kills the god. Instead of faithfully believing in you, they are more interested in the current pleasure, money, and all the sins that one shouldn't be drowned in.
"Even your believers, the church, many of them have walked into the wrong path, and despite all of that, do you still believe in them?"
"Then, do you think it is right for everyone to be ruled under you?" Cao Cao asked with a frown.
"Why not?" Masa spread his arms, showing his ambition. "Under me, everything will be fair; no conflict will happen."
"But many will die!"
"It is as if you have never killed people." Masa snorted at Cao Cao's words. "Those followers of yours, didn't you manipulate and brainwash them so they would follow every one of your words faithfully and even sacrifice themselves for your goal?
"What's the difference between me and you?
"No, I am better since I am not a hypocrite!"
Cao Cao took a deep breath and said, "There is no need for us to talk anymore. You have to disappear from this world." As he said so, he pointed the True Longinus in Masa's direction, and everyone also followed to attack Masa, but—
Masa took out another nuclear bomb from his dimensional pocket, then used the ability of the Boosted Gear to increase its damage to the limit!
"—?!"
"Here, protect your human well."
As the nuclear bomb exploded, Cao Cao used everything he had!
"Truth Idea!"
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!!!
