The Misfit of Demon King Academy (WN)
Chapter 179.2

“You gods are submissive to your own orders. ‘The Goddess of Destruction can destroy anything’? Sure, that may be the order you’ve established. But I don’t obey any of that rubbish.” (Anos)

He couldn’t maintain his levitation as I directed my Magic Eyes of Destruction at him, causing him to land on the ground.

“In other words, that divine plan you all cooked up was destined to fail from the very beginning. Gods are no order. You’re all just a bunch of fools pretending to be the law and administrators of this world. Because if gods were truly order, as you claimed, then there’s no way I could still be alive.” (Anos)

“…Thou shouldst not have been able to survive that…” (Nosgalia)

“Give it up. This is reality.” (Anos)

“…No matter how abnormal thou art, it should have been impossible for thee to protect even the other demons. The order of destruction is absolute…” (Nosgalia)

I took a step forward.

Nosgalia didn’t move from his spot, and simply directed his eyes at me.

“…Didst thou… turn the Goddess of Destruction… into thine ally? Or didst thou gain complete control over her order of destruction, even without it being sealed into the Abolisher of Reason…?” (Nosgalia)

“Who knows? Maybe I’m simply too powerful.” (Anos)

I took one more step forward.

Nosgalia’s body trembled.

“Is the ‘order’ afraid of me now?” (Anos)

“…Haha…!” Nosgalia let out a dry chuckle.

“Gods do not know fear. I have no heart and no will, this body of mine carries nothing but a single order.” (Nosgalia)

“Then I suggest you hurry up and get out of here. You can come up with a new plan afterwards.” (Anos)

“Do not mind if I do.” (Nosgalia)

With both of my Magic Eyes fixed on Nosgalia, I walked straight ahead.

However, he didn’t move from his spot.

“…What… in the…?!” (Nosgalia)

The Heavenly Father looked troubled.

“…This canst not be… What didst thou do…? I cannot move…What art thou doing to me…?” (Nosgalia)

Since I didn’t answer, Nosgalia repeated himself.

“What art thou doing to me? What art thou doing to me, Demon King of Tyranny…?!” (Nosgalia)

“Don’t you get it, Nosgalia?” (Anos)

I took another step forward.

His body was immobile, as if it was rooted to the ground.

“What you’re feeling is fear.” (Anos)

Gulping and widening his eyes in shock, Nosgalia stared at me.

His gaze was full of panic, and his legs were paralyzed.

“…Gods are… fearless… We are immortal… Therefore, we have no emotions…” (Nosgalia)

Unable to move an inch, the Heavenly Father was shivering.

I casually walked up to him and placed my fingers on his torso.

“…Thou canst not destroy me… I am the order that gives birth to all orders. If thou destroy me, the Heavenly Father, all that awaits the world wilt be perpetual ruin…” (Nosgalia)

“Hmm. Yeah, you’re right.” (Anos)

“…Haha!” (Nosgalia)

Nosgalia sounded as if he was relieved.

“Did you really think I would say that?” I told him, as if in mockery.

With his expression instantly turning to one of despair, Nosgalia was left speechless.

His eyes looked as if he had hit rock bottom.

“What’s the matter, Nosgalia? If you really don’t have any emotions, then you shouldn’t even fear your own destruction. Or are you trying to say that you, the so-called mighty order, want to live?” (Anos)

If Nosgalia were destroyed, the world would continue to decline.

However, that sort of order meant nothing to me.

Because just earlier, I had destroyed even the order of destruction.

“Then smile.” (Anos)

“…W… What…?” (Nosgalia)

“If you can smile at your own predicament, it’ll prove that you’re indeed the order of this world. And that there’s no malice in you. So I’ll deal with you accordingly, but I won’t destroy you. On the other hand, if you fear me so much you can’t smile, then I can’t let you live.” (Anos)

Nosgalia was staring at me with lifeless eyes.

“I’m gonna count three to one. So show me what a majestic order you are in that time. Three.” (Anos)

Unable to speak anymore, Nosgalia gritted his teeth.

“Two.” (Anos)

He hung his head down with a somber gaze.

“One.” (Anos)

He suddenly gasped, and let out a strained voice.

“…Ha… Haha…” (Nosgalia)

I confirmed that Nosgalia did smile.

“I see. So you chose to smile, Nosgalia.” I said.

“Which means you want to live. Looks like you just disproved your own claims about being the order of this world.” (Anos)

After a moment of silence, Nosgalia raised his arm overhead.

He had a look of indignation on his face.

“…Curse… THEEEE…!!” (Nosgalia)

I easily avoided his hand chop, and stabbed him through the abdomen.

“Kah…! Agh…” (Nosgalia)

With a firm grip on the god’s source, I spoke.

“Let’s make a deal, Conflagration King. If you don’t oppose me, I’ll give you what you want.” (Anos)

When I sent my <Thought Communication Leaks> and <Contract Zekt> spells deep into his source, I received a reply from Eldmed.

『I’ve been waiting for those exact words, Demon King Anos.』(Eldmed)

He drew a magic circle on Nosgalia’s source.

“W… What art thou… going to do, Demon King of Tyranny…?” He asked with a look of terror.

“Nothing much. It’s just that if I destroy the order of the Heavenly Father, the world will fall apart. That would be troublesome, so I’m giving all of your divine powers to the Conflagration King.” (Anos)

“…The powers of a god are absolute… My order is not the sort of thing thou canst transfer to some petty little demon…” (Nosgalia)

“Hmm. So you never realized, huh? For the past two thousand years, Eldmed has been working on a spell formula to take over the powers of a god from your very own source. Although it’s still incomplete, there’s already a wedge between you and your powers.” (Anos)

While he was fighting Shin, I peered into the bottom of Nosgalia’s source, and analyzed the spell formula Eldmed was developing.

“All that’s left is for me to perfect that formula.” (Anos)

“…Thou foolish… foolish man… How darest thou attempt to usurp the power of a god…!! Judgment is coming for thee… The judgment of order is—” (Nosgalia)

“Now I’m gonna turn you into an insect. And no matter how many times you reincarnate, you’ll remain as such for all eternity.” (Anos)

“…Wha…?!” (Nosgalia)

“You’re gonna enjoy having emotions. Life as an insect will be much more exciting than the dull and boring life of some order. And of course, you’ll also have your fair share of hardships.” (Anos)

I sent my magic power into the magic circle constructed inside Nosgalia’s body, took possession of his divine order, and transferred it to Eldmed.

“…The order… hath been disrupted… Thou fool of a… Thou… son of a…!” (Nosgalia)

Nosgalia’s anger erupted violently, as if from the confines of his heart.

The kinds of emotions no one would expect from the order of this world were showing through his words.

“Damn thee… Damn theeee…! DAMN THEEEEEEEE…!!” He screamed.

“DAMN THEEEEEEEEEEEE!! Thou, who disobey the logic… the order of this world… THOU ACCURSED MISFIIIIIIIT…!!” (Nosgalia)

“Hmm. I see you’re already starting to scream like an insect.” (Anos)

Without paying attention to his words, I continued the process of taking away his divine powers.

“…Thou wilt rue this day. Thou wilt rue it, Anos Voldigoad! Thou hast distorted the logic of this world. Gods do not have any heart. Thou hast merely instilled those emotions into me, and disrupted the order! Thou wilt soon lead this world to its ruin and destruction! The prophecy of a god is abso—?!!” (Nosgalia)

Nosgalia’s body was engulfed in light.

The next moment, it swelled up and burst open, and his source was split in two.

Then I heard a cackling voice.

The Conflagration King appeared right in front of me.

“That’s the Demon King Anos for you! To think you completed the spell formula of <Order Usurpation Ji Schenz> and easily took away the power of a god! You are indeed the absolute champion that I, the Conflagration King, have acknowledged!” (Eldmed)

As he joyfully exclaimed his words, the Conflagration King Eldmed raised his foot and stomped on a lone ground beetle that was scurrying away from here.
