Lucifel's Ideal World, v.2

—The world is ugly, he once declared.

Chaos is inevitable in this world. Pure good can’t be achieved, and pure evil breaks down. And these two extremes are always incompatible with each other. There is still some evil in a good world. That is how the world is, and it is what continues to create ugly things. Evil sneers at good, and good rages over evil. But, in a world where good and evil oppose each other, there is a group that is far more numerous that always appears.

That is ‘grey’. Neither good nor evil. A group that drifts through life haphazardly and merely exists. They don’t believe in goodness and are simply proud that they aren’t evil. Even though they affirm evil acts, they deny evil intentions. They happily say that ‘I am not evil, I am a good person’ and pardon all forms of cruelty.

They kill people while sneering. They kill people out of contempt. They kill people as part of a game. They use the excuse that they can’t restrain their desires—That’s how humans are. That’s how the world is.

Yes—this world is extremely ugly. Neither dyed by good nor fallen into evil. Unable to decide on a color, the wills of people continue to waver. As long as such evil intentions and such foul-smelling corpses aren’t destroyed.

The world will surely continue to rot eternally.

While wrapped within a curse-like fog in darkness frozen to its core.

He thus concluded.

Powers are off.
Corruptions are off.
Carry-on Weapons are not available.
Other carry-on items are available.

. . . All they did was follow me.

They chose that. Not everything can be your responsibility all the time.

It's the same with the games, isn't it? Everyone keeps following what you say, but that doesn't mean it's your fault when we lose. It means we decided that your idea seemed sound, or easier to stomach than our other options, so we took it. But we still made that choice.

. . .

I think I'll stay here for a little longer, Izanagi-san. You should go back.

[Still! Holding! On!]

No. I'm not leaving you.

Then, we'll have to settle our differences properly, won't we?

Oh?

Through the rules of this dream world, Izanagi-san.

It's a card game, of course.

..."Of course."

[Dryly because what the fuck do you mean "of course" since when have you had a card games hobby what the heck!!]

So since you realize this is a dream world, the reason you're fighting against this is because you just don't want to leave?

I thought it would be good practice for myself, for the future.

Besides that, you just stumbled upon the final boss. You should get a chance to look cool, you know?

...Isn't that just saying I'm totally outmatched?

I'll still take you on, but...

[Getting... the feeling... he has once again gotten in over his head. Sorry, what was that Whiskey said about pushing himself too hard???]

How long have you known?

Someone had to give you your cards, you know.

[ lifting a hand up—out of the Grail comes one card: ]

...You're not even going over the rules with me? That's just unfair!

I wrote them for you on your phone, though?

Besides that, Dia-san would have taught you how to play—she wanted to, you know?

She didn't mention that.

[Pausing to read, though.]

Also, if you know all this, I'm changing the terms of our battle.

Did you let her?

[ with a smile ]

To what?

No, because I was looking for you!

The new terms are: if anyone defeats you at this, you have to come home. And by "home," I mean to the real life SensitIV dorms, where everyone's waiting for you.

You have to leave this fake world.

She would have told you eventually, I'm sure? . . . Well, though, she is quite stubborn when she wants to be. Still. . .

[ there's a pause, and he smiles with a glint in his eye ]

Very well. However, you may only battle me one at a time.

That's fine.

[Alright time to play I guess!! What if we just-]

Where did y—[ The card glitches out.

When it dissolves, it's in a dark glow, and the very air thrums violently with the energy that's summoned forth—the beast that's summoned is gangly, long-limbed, letting out a violent howl before swiping at Lucifel, slamming him into the Holy Grail.

At the same time, Izanagi sees something else. ]

[He's distracted by the vision. It makes him late in regaining himself to yell-]

--Lucifel!

[ extremely fun video game

it howls again, starting to take another swipe at the blue RULER card, which has manifested into a woman holding scales, breaking it apart.

Lucifel has lost 1 WILL.

still, lucifel's response is quick—another card appears: ]

[ —and another woman materializes, smashing the scales into the beast. it glitches again as it's defeated, howling again before dissolving into its card form, which then dissolves into ash.

Izanagi has lost 1 WILL. ]

Where—

[ with an almost snarl, as he's pulling himself out from the Grail, ]

—did—you, get that!?

How should I know? It was with the cards I was given, and you just said you were the one who gave them to us.

Was that not part of your plan?

. . . I did make that one, but it is too dangerous—

[ touching his chest, wincing ]

—as you can see. So, I took it out of the card pool.

[ . . . ]

I see. So, in order to give you a weapon against my world, the Producers gave you the card that I took out.

Is that how it works...

What makes that one more dangerous than the others?
