Chapter 140 - Konosuba Side Part 25.
So, how can you explain to someone, who is in ignorance, a full system of complex meaning? Taking into consideration that the said person didn't even have a starting point in such things?
Well, if they are close, you can use information implanting, memorizing, or any spell in that category, but sadly, Leo doesn't have such convenience. Maybe this is one of the drawbacks of knowing a lot of things beyond humans' understanding.
{Even 93(Aiwass) only gave the knowledge to Aleister Crowley when he was a very powerful magician} Sighing helplessly, Leo just accepted the situation.
There's no point in thinking too much about it. It's not like he'll explain how and why the microcosmic forces interweave with the macro-cosmic forces.
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): There's no helping it and it isn't anyone's fault anyway. But now I look at it, in a sense, we have two members in the Aeon of Isis]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: The what?]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): It's something much more complicated, so don't worry about it. Anyway, let's start with the basics, which all of you should be able to understand easily. You know what our job and main mission in this chat, right? ]
Walking away from the shelf and ignoring certain eyes on him, Leo kept typing in the chat with his mind. However, some of his calculation power gathered on his hand.
[Bri-Bri: Help the entities called the world's wills by stopping the abnormalities, which are the agents of Outer Gods and Multiversal Spaces?]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): Correct, but I need you to focus on the word 'help'. In fact, our main focus is to help the world's will in the problems that generate from external factors. The agents of Multiversal Spaces and champions of Outer Gods just happened to be one of the major problems]
[Big Sister Lion: So, you want to say we're still doing our job, just the way and form changed, huh? That sneaky world's will]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): 'He' wasn't really sneaky, but okay, moving on. I would like to tell you that because of this job, the moment you join, you'll probably get the biggest payment from the world's will, which I still think it's some sort of an apology for the clickbait. It's a chance to change and bend that fate of yours. ]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: Now, you mentioned it.. Those clickbait..]
[The World Strongest Man: Bend our fate?]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): Knowledge is also power. With the information about the original trajectory, you have the initial ability to change events. In this aspect, we don't differ much from the agents and champions of the Outer Gods. We both have the ability to change the original trajectory easily, mostly because we can also be counted as anomalies.
The moment you got this Chat Room, the original trajectory of fate has changed. Some of you were supposed to experience different events, one of you was even supposed to die, and we originally weren't supposed to meet at all.]
[Big Sister Lion: I guess you're talking about me, huh?]
[Bri-Bri: That file you guys send about Leone's world..]
[Big Sister Lion: Don't be like that, Mikoto-chan. It isn't a big deal anyway, we know what will face when we agreed to be assassins]
Misaka remembered the file of Akame Ga Kill's world as she couldn't help but bite her lips. She didn't believe a world like that could exist before, but she had already visited it.
Despite that, because of the other members' help, she didn't get the chance to see the situation there with her own eyes.
[NEET Princess: But if you say it like that, then what is the difference.. wait]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): Finally you started to get it! You're strangely slow these days]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: Don't play riddles and speak directly.. please]
"Hm?" While reading the chat, Leo lifted his eyebrow before looking down. A few sparks, particles of light, and electricity arcs were appearing without a warning around his hand.
"The balance was really distorted" Leo frowned before he canceled his power.
He was about to use the energy in the 11th dimension to teleport some stuff, but apparently, there's some deviation in his usual formulas and calculations.
Adjusting the calculations, formulas, and adding Palkia's power in an instant, Leo walked towards the cashier as some stuff disappeared from their places and appeared next to the cashier. Yet, everyone was acting normal, like nothing supernatural happened.
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): Fine, I"m also trying to keep this short anyway. Here the difference lies in between the positions of you and players of the Multiversal spaces, you two are supposed to apply two different forces in different directions, yet that changed by an external factor, which is the world's will]
[Bri-Bri: What forces are you talking about? The only player we met was that Lich, and we didn't do much to apply a force or any kind of energy on him]
[NEET Princess: The World's Will already said it. 'He' needed us here for a reason, even if just our presence]
[Annihilation Maker(Admin): There where I need to stop you, Mikoto. From the moment you entered this world, you guys are applying a force on all the world, especially on destiny
Now, your next line will be, how could you refer or link a vague thing like destiny by a simple applied force?]
[Bri-Bri: How coul.. Are you looking at the future again?!]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): I'm not, and remember that we're trying to keep this simple. Destiny isn't that absolute, unchangeable factor all the time, in fact, it's flexible. Hard things break, soft things bend. It's just that the majority can't push it to the point of bending, but that doesn't apply to us for some reason.
The simplest way to explain it is by imagining that destiny is a stretched rubber line. All the acts that go against the established trajectory, which are all the changes that you may intentionally or accidentally cause, are like applying a force on the line and bending it]
[NEET Princess: Honestly, I can see that with the ways this world's will keep changing stuff]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): I see. But keep in mind that there isn't one single line, there's a bunch of them, so if you 'bend' a line, there's a chance for it to interact with others.
Moreover, there is always a difference between the requirement for each change. After all, changing what you'll eat for breakfast can't be compared to changing the moment of your death. Of course, without forgetting about the consequences of such acts, yet we are spared from all those annoying stuff]
[NEET Princess: But if you bend it, a force will be applied back.. Is this one of the ways those Outer Gods get that Origin Power? ]
[Annihilation Maker(Admin): Correct. Such a phenomenon is explained in Newton guy's third law, for every action (force) in nature there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Destiny is a vague concept, it's not like the opposite force will come and slap you, to be honest, that'll be interesting to watch. But sadly, it'll appear in ambiguous ways, like a change in luck or unfortunate events. This is why most gods were afraid of those destiny-related deities because it's such a pain to mess with them.
Theoretically, the Outer Gods use such acts by sending their agents to wreak havoc, then absorb the energy generated. This is why they love to boost their agents' ego to let them act recklessly and control them better. Thus, the easiest way is to give conquering quests or world-ending ones.
Here comes the difference between us and them, the power generated by our actions will go directly to the world's will. Those guys are stingy, so they won't let it go to waste in some bad luck. The best theory I can come up with is that they use it to recover the damage we cause, yet, they are a lazy bunch that doesn't want to work! Ooops, my thoughts on my world's will slipped, moving on.
For the old man and the unprofessional assassin, think of the time that you punched something hard and felt pain and resistance in your fist, that's the opposite force]
[Big Sister Lion: I see..]
[Bri-Bri: I'll explain it for you later]
[Big Sister Lion: Thank.. really, thank you]
Leo stopped and gave the Chat's members a moment to comprehend the current information. To be honest, such a subject is nearly impossible to explain fully and be tackled from all sides in a short period.
{These are still rather very simple, yet.. I think the word 'simple' is different between me and them } shaking his head, Leo glanced to the side as his eyes met the current 'stalker'.
The 'stalker' turned his head away while crossing her arms, but Leo had an expressionless face while saying " Are you still mad?"
"Hmph!" Nero puffed her cheeks at Leo's bland question.
"I see" Nodding, Leo walked calmly toward the cashier, leaving Nero, who was angry because she turned into a class card, madder because of his nonchalant attitude.
[Bri-Bri: If you explain it like this, does destiny have effects on scientific laws?]
[Annihilation Maker(admin): Even if science is strict and its rules are heavier than magic, there's still a chance for variables to appear, for example, interactions between particles, even Newton's third law isn't universal.
I would like to go in-depth in this subject, but looking at the situation, I'll go straight and tackle the main problem. What is Konosuba world's will doing and why did it do it?
I need to remind you that this part is pure theories, even the upper part still has theories in it. Like I said, this is a completely unknown area]
[The Strongest Man In The World: Hmmm]
[Big Sister Lion:... Okay]
Whitebeard closed his eyes like he's trying to understand, but honestly, he was already lost from the moment that Newton or whatever his name was mentioned.
Leone also kinda gave up, now, she can only hope to understand later, or maybe she'll just follow the assassins' rules and only do the job without understanding why.
[Advocate of Gender Equality: Now, you lost me. Well, I should have expected this from destiny related stuff]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): There's no helping it, so let me just finish it.
The World's Wills, or at least what I saw until now, always aim to reduce the losses and consumption.
First, you and players are two different parties applying different forces on the destiny. Rather than the Multiversal Space absorbing that generated energy, the world will interrupt it and gather it all. We can assume that because this World's Will doesn't seem to be putting the intruders in his eyes.
Somehow, the World's Will put these two parties in opposite directions, then it will preserve energy and symmetry, making the force jump up and down between you two. Each time, the generated energy will get stronger because of the two external factors, which are the players and the chat's members. By doing so, the world's will is lowering the costs of what it's doing by using the energy from you two.]
[NEET Princess: If you say that, that means that the fixing and adjusting the plot is also a result of that plan?]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): I'd like to think of it more like a side-effect of 'his' actions. To balance and keep the 'symmetry' somehow, the World's Will will surely go for a familiar place or gather the energy where it can use it to the fullest, which is the most familiar destiny line, the original trajectory.
You also said something about a crystal of some kind, maybe that crystal was the container or the guide of energy, which took off like a warhead using that player's coordinates]
Reading the long explanations and theories, the Chat's members couldn't help but be silent. Honestly, they got a large amount of information, even if it's still in the category of 'theory'.
However, knowing this makes them more and more confused about this World's Will and its actions, but like Leo's said, this is a completely unknown domain, which is hard to understand.
Considering they have a lot of time because of Kaguya's ability, the Chat's members, who understood a little, took a moment to comprehend the current information.
Meanwhile, in DXD, Leo saw the chat went silent as he stopped typing and shrugged because he could guess what's happening.
Paying for the stuff, throwing them in a subspace, and leaving the store, Leo nodded before he heard a sound behind him " Nobody notices what you're doing?"
The Devil appears in many forms, the Devil is always around us, but we just don't notice. The ability to lurk around humans without notice is something basic to demons, yet, Leo's darkness is deceptive, so he can push that aspect further by making a whole domain.
"Hm?" Leo glanced at Nero and said " Are you still mad?"
"Of course! Why did you lock me in the class card like that!" Nero expressed her feeling directly, like she was wronged, but before she continued, she reacted quickly and grabbed a can thrown at her.
"You know that you brought that upon yourself, right? Do you think it's okay to invade a magician's(Angel's) Workshop casually?" Leo opened the can of iced tea with a blank expression because he can see how this will go.
"Yes! I was able to enter the Workshop of my court magicians at any time I wanted. They were honored that the emperor is visiting them!" Answering instantly, Nero had a tone of take for granted, which isn't strange for the emperor.
"But what is this?" Raising the can, a look of confusion surfaced on Nero's face before Leo said " Open it, and drink what's inside. Isn't these things included in the Spirit Core's information?"
"Oooh! Is this an offering? Umu! I accept your apology" For some reason, Nero did a 180 degree and brightened up while opening the iced tea can.
"I did nothing to apologize though.. Annnnnd she isn't listening" shrugging his shoulders, Leo took a sip from the iced tea while checking the Chat.
[NEET Princess: Can I ask how much are you sure about this theory]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): Based on what you gave, I ran several simulations in my mind, yet this is the best I could come up with. I advise to not rely on it a lot because this is still ridiculous even for me
This theory still has a lot of holes. For example, the amount of energy generated. Taking the tree of life theory as a reference, the world is split into 4 layers.
Assiah (World of Action) is the material realm where you guys are and the lowest layer, so the world's will actions are starting from this place, yet it can generate enough energy to impact the higher realms! Wait maybe the energy generated isn't a regular one, maybe it has some different rules and laws that allow this!
I also believe that tree of life theory isn't enough to explain the World's will and Outer Gods, so let's theoretically assume that there's a fifth realm, a realm beyond Atziluth (World of Emanation) where the light of the Ein Sof, radiates and is still united with its source.
Just how could this World's Will do this?! If this theory is correct, even if I think there's still a lot of data missing, this act is breaking all the rules and laws, no, maybe this theoretical fifth realm has its own rules and laws that allows...*Cough* I think I went a little overboard ]
[Big Sister Lion: I think I'll take a step back from here]
[Bri-Bri:.....]
[NEET Princess:..... A little?]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: Ah, I see. I understood everything.. Who I'm kidding, I need a break ]
[A Hero For Fun is offline!]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: Ah, he gave up. His mind must have been overloaded]
[NEET Princess: We lost a brave soldier]
[The Strongest Man In The World: *Nods*]
[Bri-Bri: I still can't get over the fact that you actually used Newton's third law to explain destiny]
[Annihilation Maker(Admin):*shrugs* Well, I did what I had to do, everything else is up to you now. But I'm also curious about this phenomenon, so let me give you something]
[Bri-Bri: What do you mean?]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: I smell a large amount of trouble and headache is coming]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin) has uploaded 'I swear this is not a satanic ritual' file]
(A/N: Check the end of the chapter)
[Advocate of Gender Equality: I KNEW IT!!!]
Looking at the file name, Kazuma instantly knew that his fears became true, but like everyone else, he also clicked on the file.
There's a saying that the curiosity killed the cat, however, the cat didn't die in this situation, it just walked casually while Kazuma felt his mind almost stop functioning when he saw the complex magic circle and the explanation.
[Big Sister Lion is Offline]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: Come back here you coward!!!]
"Come back here you coward!!" Screaming the same thing he typed, Kazuma looked at Leone closing the Chat Room and leaving to catch a breather.
[Advocate of Gender Equality: What did the poor pigeons do to you?!]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): Well, this is it for today, if you have a question ask it]
[NEET Princess: What is this for? And are you sure this is not satanic?]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): Think of it as a fail-safe and also as a thing I'm interested in. Can my 'spiritual vision' reach another world?]
[NEET Princess: Let me be more specific, what is this exactly?]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): The simplified version of the Grand Magic Angel Fall toned with the Holy Grail's summoning ritual]
[NEET Princess: Wait! Toaru and Type-Moon?! Does this thing exist]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): Of course, it exists. I just made it, something like that is simple for me, so don't worry]
[NEET Princess: *Press X to doubt. JPG*]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: I take it back, I admit you're so knowledgeable, but just stop, please, my mind can't do this anymore!! And how do you expect this to work?! We don't have a magician, who can understand this. Or are you planning to teach because I feel I'll really lose brain cells]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): You want me to teach you magic? Well, I suppose I can teach you everything except Angelic techniques, but not now, you can in the meantime check those books that I uploaded. Although the magic of DXD isn't that advanced, it's very good as a starter]
[NEET Princess: I'm with him. Don't forget that this world doesn't have Idol Theory for the magic to work, neither it has the legends and myth in the regular worlds]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): I'll take care of that, if my 'spiritual vision' reaches the ritual, my personal reality can take care of the other problems. Also, there's that parallel world, which Kazuma came from. Trust me, did my actions ever affect something negatively?]
[NEET Princess:.....*DXD's Asgard torn to pieces while an angel raging like a calamity*]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): Except that]
[NEET Princess: *Venus close to Earth's orbit*]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): You get the point!]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: Why don't you just buy a transmutation ticket?]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): We have no evidence that the world's Will will not ban me, so this is safer and it's also an experiment]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: Do I look like a lab rat for you?!... Hold on, I feel this is fishy]
[NEET Princess: Me too.. Don't tell me you don't even have the points to buy a ticket]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin): So, today lesson is finished, take care and direct message me if something bad happen]
[Annihilation Maker (Admin) is Offline]
[Advocate of Gender Equality: Coward!!]
[NEET Princess: Hahahahah!!]
Looking at Kaguya and Kazuma, who seemed to achieve something and became proud, Misaka couldn't help but sigh while Whitebeard already quit the Chat. These things are not for an old man like him. Now, what they are supposed to do with this Lich(crystal)?
{Bastards, why did they get smarter just for this?!} Leo closed the Chat directly while clicking his tongue.
For some reason, he felt these guys became dumber, especially Kaguya, who should be an immortal with a lot of experience in life. Yet, they only recovered in the dumbest moment!
{However, this somehow gave me peace of mind. Not all the World's Wills are that supportive to this Chat Room, huh?} Leo closed his eyes as he sighed silently.
To be honest, if this was true, then Leo will feel more of a peace of mind. Nothing is absolute, nothing can only have a good side. Knowing that the World's Will might have different opinions on this Chat Room, from supporting, neutral, and maybe rejective, is much more believable for Leo than blind trust. historical
The support should be Root and maybe DXD, the neutral is only Toaru for now, and somehow between rejective and neutral is Konosuba's World Will.
{Ugh, although it isn't all that obvious, I smell the disgusting politics} Leo shuddered at one of the most hateful things for him.
"What happened?" Nero saw the sudden burst and asked, but Leo only shook his head and said " Nothing important"
{I wonder what'll happen now} Looking at the sky, Leo's thoughts couldn't help but drift, then he was pulled by Nero.
"Hmmm, hey, what is that?" Nero spotted something at the commercial street of Kouh.
"Idol's stuff. Japan is filled with those" Leo responded casually, but then Nero's eyes sparkled and said " Let's go and check it!"
"What? *Sigh* Fine, count it as the unfinished thanks" Leo felt this will be a major pain, yet he sighed and walked forward.
Nero stopped for a moment before she guessed that he meant the time in the previous reality, so she smiled and said " Umu, although there wasn't much to be thankful at that situation..."
Leo didn't answer, neither did he stop moving, which made Nero's smile grew up wider before dragged him and said " Umu, umu, only for that!"
{Ugh, I'm already regretting this} Leo just fixed his glasses while thinking of what the next step he should take, well.. He might start by having a 'talk' with someone.
Meanwhile, in a special space, DXD World's Will, who was watching the show with interest while laughing, shuddered.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vision( spiritually): A vision is something seen in a dream, trance, or religious ecstasy, especially a supernatural appearance that usually conveys a revelation. Visions generally have more clarity than dreams, but traditionally fewer psychological connotations. Visions are known to emerge from spiritual traditions and could provide a lens into human nature and reality. Prophecy is often associated with visions.

Details' zone:
File: I swear this is not a satanic ritual.
First, you need to draw this magic circle by using the blood of three pigeons/doves. The caster should use a brush made from his/her hair or their old cloth, but in this case, we can ignore it. Also, you can use chalk, but you need to soak it in the blood of pigeons/doves.
Three doves/pigeons means the Holy Spirit and also sacrifice.
Secondly, when drawing, you don't have to aim for absolute perfection. Those small flaws can also represent distortion, so they are good to have here.
Thirdly, after you finish drawing, you need to fix the symbolism of the spell. You require the following.
Lotus wand is the Angel Staff, it represents Ether element, putting that on the higher position in Kabbalah. Ether is the element of gods, which is the element that links the four elements.
The dagger ( The colors need to be red) represents the element of fire. Fire is the symbol of power, yet wisdom. This spell is you asking for assistance from the higher beings, so fire is the best medium! Put it on the color of red, Gevurah, in Kabbalah.
Lastly, the disc ( The color needs to be green) represents the Earth element and it also means humans, who are made of clay. This represents the destination of the spell and it links with the caster because you're lowering the higher spirituality into the mortal realm. It is required to be put in Malkuth, which is the position of humans in Kabbalah.
The Ether that represents the higher divinity will fall down from the highest position then it'll be converted into Fire element, which symbolizes giving wisdom and power to mortals, then the earth will refer to the destination, which means the caster and receiver of power.
Usually, I would like to include the four elements, but considering that I'm doing the heavy lifting, these three components focus on the holy trinity and the higher heaven. This is an act of giving the priority to have contact with the higher realm more, which means you're linking it with me.
The spell will drag my 'spiritual vision' through Kabbalah positions into the mortal realm, it's an act of making an Angel Fall, yet because I'm also a Beast, using the summoning ritual will make it much more simpler, especially because there are humans in the opposite world.
If the experiment was successful, this ritual will be a fail-safe if things went out of control.
Yet, I suggest stopping the spell immediately if you felt something wrong. I don't know how it'll manifest for you, but using a technique like this will usually result in 'toxins' because the spell is beyond your mind understanding, especially because it'll be linked to me, after all, I'm still an Angel that humans can't comprehend.
*WARNING*
There's an additional step in the ritual that I like you to don't take unless it's absolutely, absolutely necessary. It's taking the Lotus Staff and erasing the highest crown, Keter, from Kabbalah during the ritual.
Have fun :)
