Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1572 - 1092: Remember... Be Human!

"Die!"

With a furious roar that made his veins bulge, Kibutsuji Muzan leaped high up, wielding a powerful whip-like weapon, descending from above alongside the crocodile dragon, both aiming a final strike at Reiger, who lay in tatters in the pit below.

On one side, several whip-like cables twisted together, forming a drill-like thick whip, fiercely stabbing downward.

On the other side, sharp claws split the air and rain, hurling down with a fierce wind.

This merciless strike undoubtedly aimed to take a life.

From the hatred in Kibutsuji Muzan and the crocodile dragon’s eyes, and their satisfaction at imminent revenge, anyone could perceive the authenticity of their emotions.

If there were others familiar with the situation here witnessing all this, they would certainly harbor doubts, right?

Doubt whether Kibutsuji Muzan and the crocodile dragon had truly crawled back from hell, once killed by Reiger and now resurrected, determined to exact revenge at all costs.

Contrarily, Reiger himself, facing this life-threatening scenario, was not alarmed but rather smiling.

"Domain Expansion..."

At an unknown time, Reiger’s hand, weakly hanging to the ground, formed a blade seal.

"[Infinite Void]."

In that moment, the world changed.

"Buzz—"

Centered around Reiger, an abyssal darkness like the cosmic space engulfed the world, spreading like a tide in all directions.

The curtain of rain vanished instantly.

The square disappeared in an instant.

The heavens and earth were filled with space-like darkness, rendering Kibutsuji Muzan and the fierce crocodile dragon, descending from the sky, as if thrown into outer space, suspended in mid-air, unable to fall.

The sneer on Kibutsuji Muzan’s face and the ferocity in the crocodile dragon’s eyes also froze.

"Rumble..."

A gigantic black hole unknowingly appeared in this expanse, towering behind everyone.

Infinite power seemed contained within that massive black hole, making anyone who saw it tremble with fear.

The black hole seemed capable of devouring everything, hiding something horrific within, causing dread.

In this realm, Kibutsuji Muzan and the crocodile dragon’s thoughts spiraled into endless chaos.

Because, at this second, countless chaotic information flooded into their brains, crashing them into a state akin to a breakdown.

Thoughts were possible, but at an extremely sluggish pace.

Consciousness existed, but so blurred they couldn’t comprehend their plight.

A demon and a beast could only stare wide-eyed, static and powerless.

In contrast, Reiger stood up shakily at an unknown moment.

"Originally, I thought some deadly ability was triggered by rain as a medium, but now it appears I was mistaken."

With his entire body battered, appearing like his bones were shattered, Reiger calmly wandered in the cosmic domain, stumbling forward.

"Rain was merely an illusion, the actual medium triggering the ability was a faint sound within the rain noise, or the foul smell mixed in the rain."

"Thus, even without touching the rain, later on hearing the rain, smelling the stench, I’d still fall victim."

Passing by the crocodile dragon, then Kibutsuji Muzan with wide eyes and a dazed look, Reiger continued forward.

"And this ability isn’t any deadly power, nor an illusion or hallucination."

"Upon activation, the trigger’s consciousness is promptly drawn into a false space constructed by their memories."

"In this fictitious memory space, you can reproduce people or things from the target’s memory at will, and control them."

Whether Melo, Naisa, or Beluti, the visions and hallucinations they encountered after the ability triggered were scenes once part of their memories.

However, those scenes were seized by the ability’s owner, diverging from the memory holder’s impressions.

"The truly terrifying aspect of this ability is when we believe everything here is real, and being harmed or killed by things in our memory, those memories return to the brain, transferring to the body, from false to real."

"Thus, injuries here become real, deaths experienced here turn real, even possessions at that time are affected, becoming damaged."

"This process is absolutely irreversible, preventing or healing is impossible, even if by chance not dead, severe shock to the memory can lead to a collapsed mental and spiritual state."

Melo, Naisa, and Beluti were such; even after being revived by Reiger later, their mind and spirit still suffered substantial trauma, genuinely believing themselves melted to death, enduring dreadful pain and torment.

Even Reiger, witnessing the girls’ demise from the exterior, felt the same.

Sadly...

"You don’t know that my first magic was memory magic, so upon entering here, I discerned its essence."

"You also don’t know I possess a development ability named ’Unbound’, freeing me from external constraints, by pulling my consciousness into this memory space, restricting my power, you inadvertently made me aware of being restrained."

"Two reasons, inevitably leading to your failure."

Reiger reached one corner of [Infinite Void].

Here, he could smell a stench, barely hear an eerie faint sound.

And so, Reiger extended his hand and grabbed something within the darkness.

It turned out to be a shadow.

The true form of the shadow was a slender abyss creature, akin to a worm.

It remained motionless there, unable to resist under the influence of the [Boundless Void].

"I didn’t expect the great terror hidden within the Great Saint Palace to be such an inconspicuous little thing like you."

Reiger’s blood-stained lips curled up.

"If there’s a next life, remember to reincarnate as a human in a fountain."

With those words, Reiger’s hand holding the slender worm suddenly tightened.

"Splat!"

With blood splattering, the abyss creature hiding in the Great Saint Palace put on an act and met its end.

...

Great Saint Palace, the square connecting the front hall and the main hall.

The rain that had originally appeared here had already stopped, no longer falling.

A spherical black barrier hovered above the square, silent and still, making the atmosphere oppressive and heavy.

"Buzz——"

At a certain moment, the spherical barrier suddenly trembled and then contracted inward, transforming into a brilliant light.

"Boom!"

The light exploded, causing countless starry light points to fall from midair, forming another rain, a mesmerizing shower of light.

Reiger’s figure emerged from it, bathed in the light rain, like a Messenger of God descending from the heavens, gently landing on the ground.

Upon closer inspection, Reiger’s body was completely unscathed, not a single wound despite having all his bones shattered.

Only a handful of blood was dripping from his clenched fist, indicating that he had indeed killed an abyss creature just moments ago.

"Snap!"

Reiger flung his hand, and the blood was slung to the ground, creating a splatter mark that stained the ground red.

"...The revenge for those girls is considered taken."

Reiger muttered to himself, unlike Kibutsuji Muzan and that crocodile dragon in the memory space, whose eyes were filled with rage and hatred, yet he also conveyed that he was a vengeful person.

After all, he had watched Melo, Naisa, and Beluti die right before his eyes, powerless to help.

The feeling at that time... you could tell by his later demeanor that he almost lost control and had an outburst on the spot.

Now with the great revenge achieved, Reiger felt a sense of mental freedom.

"If those girls knew that the creature responsible for their tragic deaths was just a little worm, even Beluti would feel depressed, wouldn’t she?"

Reiger turned around, glanced at the front hall a distance away, and pursed his lips.

"It’s better not to tell them about this."

It’s as if this never happened.

Reiger handled it appropriately, showing full consideration for the girls’ dignity.

Of course, he could still tell them that he had avenged them.

Such news should be a good remedy for the girls who suffered emotional and mental shock, right?

"Main hall..."

Reiger shifted his gaze to the main hall that could be reached by crossing the square.

The doors to the main hall were right in front of him, no longer distant.

"There should be no abyss creatures here, right?"

Reiger wasn’t too sure about this.

Ever since arriving at this Black Land, his Perceptive World had stopped working properly, so much so that even though he kept it activated, he couldn’t trust everything Perceptive World saw.

"To be safe, let’s deploy some tanks."

Having experienced so many bizarre powers of the abyss, Reiger became much more cautious.

At that moment, Reiger unfolded a magic array.

"[Tenth Rank Angel Summoning]."

From the magic array, several pure white mechanical angels appeared in light, summoned by Reiger.

If the Loki Familia and adventurers who took part in the artificial labyrinth campaign saw these mechanical angels, they would surely recognize them. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

Because they were the angelic summoned creatures known as Guardian Seat Angels, previously summoned by Reiger as fighting power for the campaign.

With these Guardian Seat Angels used as shields, only then did Reiger proceed into the main hall.
