Huge Holy 101 (Final) (Patreon)

101 - ???

RAW

[I would like to ask you one thing, why did you give him, Garda, your knowledge?]

It's been a long time since I've been spoken to by the shitty god, but this time it's the first time I have a conversation with him.
As usual, the figure on the other side was blurry, and his voice neutral.
However, he asked me the strangest question I've heard in a long time.

Why?
What sort of sensations am I feeling, like being pulled in a weird way?
I didn't really get it, so I answered, “He was a guy who listened to me, so I just taught him.”
A Empire people are mostly a good-for-nothing bunch, well, how should I put it.
Even among good-for-nothing, I'd say he’s the closest to decent.

When I think about it, he was a serious person.
He was serious and loyal to his professional duties, but his social disposition was... I guess it was bad?
He listened to what people were saying, but he was a strange guy that got misunderstood just because he just listened silently without interjecting.

Hearing that, that guy meaningfully replied, [I see, is that so?].

[This may be a nonsensical topic, but he is actually a kind of spawn just like you. What’s more, of my brother's]

This was a bit of a surprise.
I also remember being startled by the eerie feeling coming from him.
The shitty god curiously grumbled, [they are linked by fate with my other spawns].
Are the siblings linked by fate...? I wasn't really aware of it, but it feels unpleasant.

[You will probably meet again as enemies, but until then, please prepare yourself to the best of your ability.]

He told me.
But I don't know if it's actually true.

It’s true that Randy is planning to invade E Kingdom.
And it's highly likely that his next invasion won't just be a half for fun like [Desire].
That's because――the calamity-designated weapon [Yggdrasil] left behind by the problem child of the century, the anthropomorphist, is sealed in E Kingdom.
If the seal were carefreely broken, the land would wither away due to the plant damage caused by Yggdrasil, and not only E Kingdom, but the surrounding countries would also become deserts.

...I want to think he won’t do it, but...

“From now on, I want to go look for [Mugen].”

Lula, also known as Slingerland, the calamity designated weapon, finally calmed down and told Randy.
Randy dubiously asked back, “Mugen?”

“A fellow anthropomorphized companion like you?”

“Yeah. It's also the last weapon that my master anthropomorphized.”

Lula said with a gloomy expression, perhaps remembering the past.
Randy tilted his head slightly.

“You mean the [Ultimate Weapon]? The final and strongest weapon holding the title of [Tyrant]. Also, he was the only man among those brought forth by the anthropomorphist.”

“That’s right... His appearance caused our, both us and our master, relationship to be strained. Now that I think about it, we ended up hurting Mugen badly. I want to apologize to him.”

“Hmm. Basically, it's like an unrelated bastard suddenly appeared in the harem group, so there's no helping it.”

‘But,’ Randy says

“Most of the places where you guys are sealed in are recorded, but they said the [Ultimate Weapon]... Mugen-kun was defeated or destroyed by you guys, you know?”

“No! He disappeared on his own. He ignored master's orders.”

“Eh? But you guys who are anthropomorphized are in a state of absolute obedience toward your master, right? Because of the skill's effect.”

“That's just another rumor. We obeyed our master of our own free will. That's why even our master misunderstood his skill. And then――our master was killed by Mugen.”

The death of the legendary anthropomorphist.
Coupled with his anecdote, it was speculated that his death was caused by a tangle of his relationships with women, but, unfortunately, the truth is a disappointing natural conclusion.
Randy once again checked with Lula, who has a dark complexion.

“Um, are you seriously going to look for him?”

“Don't make me say it again. At that time, our relationship and everything else had already collapsed. Mugen ended it all. There is no reason to hold a grudge against him... You are probably going to break the seal on my sisters anyway.”

“...Well, don't worry about that part. Also, there seems to be a kid who is trying to unseat it on his own. (Though, it was old man Garda who found out about it when he was doing a preliminary inspection).”

“Ha!?”

Although she was taken aback by Randy's light-hearted remark, Lula asked, “Is it that Aegis guy?” although she seems to have an idea about him.
However, while lightly dodging it, Randy muttered, “It's going to be a lot of trouble from here on~”

Meanwhile, around that time.
A tragic accident occurred on planet [Earth], where Josiah used to live.

A falling rock struck a vehicle carrying students, teachers, and bus passengers on a field trip, killing 35 people.
Right then, a god who has just secured 35 souls that have collectively died, said.

“Let’s leave the investigation of the planet to him and start the next experiment.”

(T/N: this below is the author’s note.)

With this, [Self-proclaimed: I'm in desperate straits because I've been fired from all my side jobs and my main job as an adventurer, but it’s not a problem because the power of [Holy] is so freaking huge ~enough already, just let me earn experience points!~] or [Freaking Huge Holy] for short, is completed.
I wanted to wrap it up with exactly 100 chapters, but it was too long, so I had to split it.
I'm very sorry.

Well, no matter how you look at it, doesn’t this seem like it would be canceled midway through? Wasn’t there a lot of foreshadowing left unresolved?
You might want to make that sort of tsukkomi, but if you look at it from the perspective of having Josiah as the main character, the story is more or less completed here.
Since Josiah is the main character and the foreshadowing left behind cannot be recovered, it will be a different main character next time.
It will be like a so-called sequel, but I plan to develop it again so that you can read it even if you don't understand this original work.

For a start, I was able to complete one of my Narou novels.
A lot happened before I completed it, but I was able to persist with everyone's support.
Thank you very much for reading this far.

I hope to see you in the next work or in my other works that are still ongoing.

――――

(T/N: that’s the end of the series. Btw, me using the same [Freaking Huge Holy] tag is a coincidence. Also, I only translate completed series, so I won’t translate the sequel.)
