The Spear of Lord Slayer
The magical tool, which triple-chants the ten-circle spell for the Substitute Race War, unleashes all its stored power and synchronizes with his own mana. The Lord Slayer authority of the giant race’s Lord Gods and the vitality that the giant race absorbs from the earth itself. His mana begins forging a colossal spear in the empty void.
Gu-gu-gu-gung!
The colossal form of the Spear of Lord Slayer.
It was a literal planet-piercing spear of Lord Slayer, created by pouring every ounce of his mana into it while mobilizing the immense vitality of the Main God Star and the giant race’s Lord Slayer authority.
I can feel it. With this, I could wipe out any divine realm in a single strike.
This was his hidden trump card prepared for the decisive battle of the divine realm—now being used to completely pin the highest-ranking Lord God of the Substitute Race to the planet and deliver a fatal blow.
He staggered. The consumption of such overwhelming mana caused his legs to give out for a moment. The Demon God of the Demon Realm caught his arm and supported him. She placed a hand on his forehead and bestowed demonic energy.
“You’ve far exceeded your limits. It’s astonishing that you’re still alive after this, yet you continue to do such absurd things. Leave the rest to me and the Main God of the Divine Realm. As long as your divinity doesn’t drop, it will take some time, but we can handle it.”
“Perfect customer satisfaction has always been my business policy.”
“Hah! Indeed it has. That’s why I chose you.”
Leaning on the Demon God of the Demon Realm’s support, he refocused his mana. The super-giant spear of Lord Slayer, over ten thousand kilometers long, finally revealed its full form. Even the summoned Lord Gods of the giant race stared in shock at the sight of a spear longer than the diameter of the Boundary planet. The goddess of the giant race—who had been enthusiastically stomping on the Main God of the Divine Realm—finally looked satisfied, only to glance upward and freeze in astonishment.
The divine power contained in this spear… by my estimation, it exceeds thirty billion.
It was something he had created during his days as the God of Mercenaries, calculating the absolute maximum within his knowledge in order to destroy the divine realm. Its power was guaranteed. Yet against the highest-ranking Lord God of the Substitute Race, it still wasn’t enough.
“Direct serial link with the Survival Magic Tower.”
Unlimited mana supply engaged.
All depleted mana fully replenished.
Wiiiiiiing—!
Through his dimensional authority, infinite mana poured once again from the tower connected to him. Once the spent mana was completely restored, he chanted again.
“The Polymorph of Gigantes Lord—!”
Thud—! Thud—! Thud—!
The sound of his heartbeat echoed across the Boundary. It was the heartbeat of an impossibly colossal lifeform. A heart appeared in the sky above his head, spraying crimson blood into the void. Veins and bones gradually materialized along the trails of blood. In tandem, his own body began losing its original shape.
Shuuuuuuuuuuu!
Ku-kung! Ku-kung!
As the new heart appeared, his original heart vanished. As blood flowed, his own blood disappeared. As arms and legs vanished, his body followed suit.
Go-go-go-go-go-go-go-go—!
Nine mana cores blazed as if about to explode, manifesting the highest-level nine-circle transformation spell. Though it was technically a nine-circle spell, the mana required had long surpassed the ten-circle threshold. Without the infinite mana support from the Survival Magic Tower, it would have been impossible to even attempt.
And then, a giant of truly awe-inspiring scale materialized.
Ku-kung—! Ku-kung—!
The Boundary planet shook violently, nearly thrown off its orbit by the weight of the two legs that had descended from the sky. Even the Lord Gods of the giant race, who commanded the dead, widened their eyes until they seemed ready to tear apart. The presence of the Demon God of the Demon Realm had become laughably small. The goddess of the giant race—who had been stomping on the Main God of the Divine Realm—now looked no bigger than a pebble. Mountain ranges appeared like mere rocks. When he rose to his feet, the thin atmosphere and black cosmos greeted him. Everything lay beneath his feet.
So this is how the world looks to the giant race?
The giant race were the supreme, mightiest beings who reigned over planets populated by ridiculously small and weak lifeforms.
Hooooooo—! Kwaaaaaaaa—!
The super-giant spear, one thousand kilometers long, floated before his eyes and shrank to a suitable size before settling into his grasp. He lightly swung it, assuming a throwing stance.
The highest-ranking Lord God of the Substitute Race, which once felt so enormous, now looks tiny. This is doable.
Hwooooong—!
The Boundary beneath his feet now felt no larger than his old magic tower. All the Lord Gods of the giant race floated before his eyes. Now barely the size of his pupils, they cried out in terror.
“How is this even possible?”
“This can’t be—!”
“There’s no way a Lord God of the giant race like this could exist!”
“This is absurd!”
He had poured every last drop of mana into this spell. Forty billion base mana—twenty billion from his original power and another twenty billion from the Staff of Origin—amplified four times in succession by eight consecutive ten-circle buff spells, resulting in a total of three hundred and twenty billion maximum mana. On top of that, he had emptied every ounce of mana stored in the Survival Magic Tower simply to increase the scale of his power.
A one-thousand-kilometer body—exactly one hundred times the typical ten-kilometer size of a giant race Lord God—manifested in a short period of time.
This was the only method that allowed him to perfectly wield the super-giant spear of Lord Slayer.
He cast the strongest ten-circle offensive spell onto the long spear gripped in his hand.
“My strike opens a path that transcends the past and present and reaches into the future.”
"My strike opens a path that transcends the past and present and reaches into the future."
⟨ TIME-SPACE PIERCING SPEAR ⟩
Magic Type: Space-Time Magic, Offensive, Manifestation
Beings of Lord God rank or higher have their existence engraved across past, present, and future. They cannot be truly annihilated except under special circumstances (such as the Substitute Race’s God Extinction or attacks from Creator Gods and above).
To overcome this, the strike pierces the target’s past, present, and future—canceling their past, fixing them in the present, and rendering their future existence uncertain. The victim’s authorities gained through past training are nullified, and only their current abilities are recognized, drastically lowering their power so that even ordinary attacks can harm them.
If the target dies in the present, their past and future die with them, causing their existence to be erased from this universe. This result is worse than mere annihilation, so extreme caution is required in its use.
Of course, since it is a 10-circle spell, it has no effect on the flow of time in the already-progressed universe—only the target’s existence disappears.
Restriction: Equivalent to three consecutive 10-circle space-time spells, so mana consumption is nearly at the 11-circle level. After use, additional attacks will be difficult in the current state due to mana exhaustion. Ultimately, it can only be used as support fire.
A truly vicious spell in both usage and result.
The space and time around the colossal spear of Lord Slayer began to distort.
If this strike lands, any being below Creator God rank must prepare for erasure—something worse than death or annihilation.
The death of a god could be reversed through resurrection. The annihilation of a Lord God or higher could be undone by reviving them from the past. The vitality or divine power required increased exponentially depending on the target, but it was not impossible if one truly wished to do so. A highest-ranking Lord God could resurrect themselves without outside help.
This spell completely erases the target’s past, present, and future existence from this universe to prevent that. As far as I know, nothing else can resurrect something that has been erased.
He transmitted his will to the Main God of the Divine Realm and the Demon God of the Demon Realm.
At one thousand kilometers tall, everyone really does look like nothing but dust. No wonder the giant race looked down on the tiny gods and demons and fought them to the death.
The giant race were beings who had transcended through sheer size to reach the level of planetary gods. On the surface of a star, they would never lose to the god race. The only reason they could not manage the universe was that their power became extremely restricted once they left planetary atmospheres.
“After this attack, I will find it difficult to join the battle immediately. I request immediate follow-up attacks.”
“U-understood… But you really are huge.”
“You won’t even need to fight the giant race. Just appearing like that will probably make them all kneel in worship.”
The larger a giant race being was, the more powerful they were.
When I look at the Lord Gods of the giant race before me, even though they are undead, their eyes seem to sparkle with envy.
Of course, had they not encountered the monstrous Main God of the Divine Realm, they would have been absolute rulers who reigned forever on their wild stars. Since no being above Creator God rank had ever appeared among the giant race, and no one had ever surpassed their limits, they had continued to be pushed back by the god race.
Size is power to the giant race. So when I transformed into a giant one hundred times larger than them, they were both shocked and moved. If a Creator God were to be born among the giant race, the balance of the universe would surely shake. But that has nothing to do with me.
Drrrrrrrrrrrr—!
Right now, the more pressing issue was that the Lord Slayer barrier temporarily sealing the highest-ranking Lord God of the Substitute Race was trembling.
As expected, even my dimensional and mana barriers cannot fully contain the highest-ranking Lord God of the Substitute Race.
Sensing the wave of his mana and divine power, it thrashed wildly as if in desperation. Every muscle in its body rippled like waves, and its violent blood flow roared like a storm.
“Divine Manifestation—!”
Having become a Lord God of the giant race, he received infinite vitality and mana from the moon and sun through his dimensional authority. In that state, he instantly transformed into a true Lord God. Thirteen pairs of wings of light blazed like the sun itself, and wings of crackling lightning completely covered the Boundary as they revealed themselves.
I will completely cover this entire star with a dimensional barrier to nullify the God Extinction authority. If I want to end this, there is no other way.
Drrrrrr! Uuuuuuuuung!
His body and circles screamed as if they would shatter from the backlash. It seemed he would need long-term recovery after this.
“Dimensional Net!”
He converted all thirteen pairs of mana wings into divine power and poured it into the spear.
Go-go-go-go-go-go—!
The spear now trembled as if it would explode at any moment, spewing the heat of the sun and flashes of lightning. He prepared to throw it with all his strength and poured in even more mana.
Kuuuung—! Crack!
With each powerful step, the Boundary momentarily left its orbital path. The mountain ranges beneath his feet crumbled like sand. The planet’s atmosphere was violently shaken by his movements, turning into raging storms.
This strike was the culmination of his entire life until now.
“Deathblow of Gigantes God—!”
The super-giant spear, thrown with full power, made no sound at all. In fact, it could not even be seen—it had vanished. Because it carried his dimensional authority, it had leaped through space itself.
Brrrrrrrr! Brrrrrrr!
All that remained was his body trembling from the aftershock of throwing with all his might.
PuuuUUUUUUUUU—!
“Kieeeeeeeeeek—!”
Even though sound could not travel through the vacuum of space, the scream of the highest-ranking Lord God of the Substitute Race rang out clearly.
