Cherreads

Chapter 35 - Chapter 35

The psychic broadcast from the Runcandel mansion reached a fever pitch. In bedrooms across the world, queens, goddesses, and devils sat bolt upright, their pens snapping and tea sets shattering as Alexander's "prayer" echoed in their minds.

Alexander's Inner Voice:

[Internal Thought: God... I know you're technically dead after the Great War, but if you're floating around in the collective unconscious, listen up. I'm making a deal. For tomorrow's reward, I want my favorite sword back: Venuzdonoa, the Abolisher of Reason. If you give it to me, I'll sacrifice twenty years of Issei Hyoudou's future married life to your name. Consider it a service to humanity to keep that pervert single.]

The Chaos:

Gabriel: (Hyperventilating in Heaven) "He knows?! He knows the Lord is gone?! How many others... wait, did he say he'd sacrifice the Red Dragon Emperor's love life? Pfft—!" (She burst into a fit of un-angelic giggles). Rias, Sona, & Akeno: (Doubled over laughing) "Twenty years?! That's a small price to pay for the safety of our ears and eyes!"

The Description of Absolute End

But the laughter died instantly as Alex began to describe the weapon that sat at the #1 spot in his armory.

Alexander's Inner Voice:

[Internal Thought: You probably don't even understand what that sword is. Venuzdonoa doesn't just cut—it destroys the very reason of an object. If a God is immortal, it destroys the 'reason' for their immortality. If a wound is supposed to regenerate, it destroys the 'reason' for the healing. It can nullify any spell, reduce infinity to nothing, and erase the concept of destiny itself. In front of the Abolisher of Reason, even the laws of this world are just suggestions.]

The Absolute Silence:

Ophis & Great Red: (For the first time in eons, they felt true, cold fear) 'A blade that destroys the reason for infinity? If he draws that... we don't just die. We never existed.'Grayfia: (Shivering) 'Master... you want to bring a weapon that can kill the World into a high school?'

The Bargaining Phase

Alex sighed, rubbing the bridge of his nose as he looked at the starry sky.

Alexander's Inner Voice:

[Internal Thought: I know, I know. It's a big ask. Reintroducing a conceptual eraser into a world this fragile might be overkill. Fine. If Venuzdonoa is too much for the System to handle yet, at least give me back my Yamato. I miss the spatial cutting of the Judgement Cut. Or Kyoka Suigetsu... I'd love to see the look on Malty's face when she realizes her entire life has been an illusion under my command.]

The Strategic Panic:

Serafall: (Writing at light speed) "Yamato? Spatial cutting? Kyoka Suigetsu... Complete Hypnosis?! If he gets that, we won't even know if we're on a date with him or a cardboard cutout!"Yasaka: (Clutching her tail in Kyoto) "Every sword he mentions is a catastrophe. Ryujin Jakka at #2 was already enough to burn the world... what kind of monster was our Alexander in his past life?"

Alexander's Inner Voice:

[Internal Thought: Anyway, enough praying to a dead guy. Monday morning is almost here. Ciel, if the System gives me a rock instead of a sword tomorrow, remind me to delete the System's 'reason' for existence once I get 100% sync.]

Ciel:[Threatening the System with conceptual erasure... truly, Master, your negotiation skills are as terrifying as your blades. Get some sleep. Tomorrow, the world changes—with or without a new sword.]
