This Eroge Won't Make Me Fall!



The skies cracked open. I left Titania behind with my sister and stood up.

"You two, if there's anything dangerous immediately run."

"Will you be ok alone, partner?" Titania asked me as she settled on Na-Ri's head. Na-Ri was a little startled but accepted the sudden add on to her entourage.

"I'll be ok, the two of us will handle things, right?"

—Whirr!

"Hah, the pervert chains sure have grown up."

—Whirr WHirr!

"Hey, bitch. That's my sister, talk about her again and I'll crush you with my own hands."

Fucking pervert chains of Adamas, it never learned its lesson.

My senses picked up the person floating to the ground from the faraway crack in the sky. It was so far that we couldn't see it with our eyes.

"It's here," I muttered and waved Titania and Na-Ri away.

"Kid," I said. "You know why you're really here, right?"

Na-Ri nodded at my words.

"The most important connection point, the World Tree in the World of Elves. I'll keep it safe."

"Good. I'll fight as far away as I can."

With a sharp exhale, I brought my hands together.

Far, far away, a tall man in a large brown hat and coat stood with a messy grin. Though it looked like a person, there was no mistaking it.

It was an Outer God. A very powerful Outer God.

"Stage."

The flow of air around me stopped. Even the Outer God making its way closer stopped in his tracks.

Neither of us were going to hold back here. That was clear from the get go.

"Four."

The bright skies turned dark as the energy being sealed all this time finally started to flow out of me.

Faster that even the wave of energy could travel, I shot off from the top of the world tree. Before even leaves could rustle, I was in front of the Outer God.

I pulled my hand back right next to the Human-like Outer God and slammed my fist into its stomach.

Time itself seemed to have come to a stop.

I blinked.

—BOOOOOM!!!

The Outer God flew past the trees. An enormous explosion occurred as an entire Mountain blew apart into small bits far away, behind it another, and then another.

In the blink of an eye, an entire mountain range had been reduced to dust alongside hundreds of kilometers of forest.

—Whirrr~

The chains on my neck buzzed as I adjusted my sunglasses.

"I know, I am not destroying the world, just giving it some landscaping."

—Whirr!

"The spirits can always fix it—It's back."

I brought my hands in front of me and guarded my chest. At the same moment, a punch landed into.

Another loud bang surrounded us, but the impact he made on me couldn't be compared.

Our feet crushed below and a small crater formed into the ground, yet the force of the punch never managed to go beyond.

[I am surprised…] The Outer God grinned. [That you can stand this, protector of this realm]

[I know someone who hits a hundred times stronger than you ever can.]

The Outer God widened its eyes in surprise as I spoke in the same tongue that it used. Instead of words, our intent was carried to each other's minds.

The Outer God grinned and jumped back as I shook my arms.

"Is this your true form?" I asked. "That of a human?"

[Not at all, isn't it convenient though?]

"I guess so."

[You are truly formidable, just as our King said."

I tapped my nose and grinned. "His face doing good? Or is he uglier than before?"

The Outer God lowered its head.

[Hah… how novel.]

Then, it raised its eyes. The air around the Outer God changed, a palpable tension prickled at my skin as I looked into its eyes.

This guy…

It seemed the Outer God was finally showing its strength.

[I… am named the Arcade Gamer]

"Eugene Hall."

I stretched my hand out and beckoned him over.

"You going to keep talking, or die?"

[Haha… I am not going to half-ass this, it is useless to hold back against someone clearly powerful. I will face you with everything I have]

At the end of his words, a dome formed around me.

Even faster than breathing, I could course Cataclysm within me. But the Outer God was somehow faster yet.

The ground swept from below me while the dirt wasteland our collision had formed was replaced by a deep blue sky.

"What?" A gasp left me as a voice rang in my ears.

[This is the power of my concept, Endless Reality]

I started falling through the skies. The force of gravity pulled me down as hurtled to the ground.

A ground I could not see.

[No matter how long you fall, you shall never touch the ground. Moreover, in this space, I can create anything I want.]

In the middle of the skies, multiple different beings started appearing and tried to bite through me.

I twisted my body mid-air and dodged the dragons rushing for my neck. I kicked off of one to push myself away, but I still kept falling. There was nothing in any direction.

[Your insides must already be messed from the lack of direction]

They weren't. It felt like home. I had been in a worse place for thousands of years, only that had a foothold.

[Your concept that allows you to seal and amplify your power is great.]

Concept?

"What are you talking about?"

[Calm, huh? I like that. Unfortunately, no matter how long you keep falling, this reality is truly endless. You may attack the walls, but the space between you and it is endless]

A chuckle left me.

[It is your end, protector of this realm, Eugene Hall—]

I had not even played any of my cards yet.

As I had mentioned, if there was one place where victory was confirmed.

"It was here."

[W-what!?]

The sea of Cataclysm bubbling inside me started to flow out. The Cataclysm, a malicious end of everything, started to seep out of my body. Normally, it should have destroyed me too.

But.

The thing that made me human was present no longer. At this stage, I was but the signal and the disaster, the bell and the calamity.

The advent of Cataclysm.

And the Cataclysm that followed.

[A-another… what… a second, concept?!]

The sea of Cataclysm raged out of my body. The skies of the Endless Reality were dyed with the color of Cataclysm.

"Endless? I could never reach the wall? Then, I'll just end everything in my path and make the edge of this world come to me."

With a swing of my hands, the raging Cataclysm blasted outward like a broken dam.

And the Endless Reality turned into a sea of Darkness.
