Chapter 178: The Ultimatum
"Beta. I'm coming for you."I shouted the words at the sky, but shouting wasn't enough. A scream fades. A threat needs a platform.I looked at the Admin Tablet in my hand. It was cracked, smoking from the strain of the [Sovereign's Judgment], but the screen was still active.[User: Renji Amagiri.] [Authority: Local Admin (Earth).] [Connection: Multiverse Relay (Available).]"Elara," I said, handing her the tablet. "Patch me through.""To where?" Elara asked, wiping soot from her glasses. "The UN? The Galactic Federation?""Higher," I said. "To the Board of Directors."I pointed at the stars."I want to talk to the Investors."[The Cosmic Broadcast]A hologram appeared in the center of the multiverse. Not just on Earth, but in every server, every dimension, every lobby of the Grand Tournament.Billions of eyes—human, alien, eldritch—looked up.They saw me.I stood on the ruins of the Saionji Villa. My coat was shredded. My eyes were burning violet. Behind me, the eight goddesses of Ear
Chapter 177: The Glitch King
"And I think we're going to need a bigger sword."I ripped the Dive Helmet off my head."Gah!"I gasped, sucking in the cool, filtered air of the Villa lab. Runa woke up next to me on the diagnostic bed. The metal spikes were gone. Her skin was soft, warm, and very human."Master!" She grabbed my hand. "The monster... it escaped the mindscape!""I know," I said, sliding off the table.The ground shook. It wasn't an earthquake. It was a footstep.BOOM.I ran to the window.Outside, towering over the ruins of the garden, was a giant.It was fifty meters tall. It was made of red static, jagged polygons, and screaming faces. It had the shape of a man, but its limbs were constantly glitching, stretching and snapping back into place.The Glitch King. The physical manifestation of the virus Beta had infected us with."I AM THE ERROR," the giant roared. Its voice shattered the windows of the villa. "I AM THE END OF THE FILE."It raised a fist made of corrupted code. It swung at the villa."Sh
Chapter 176: The Samurai Virus
"We're going to Rome."I had declared that intention with absolute fury. But before I could even take a step toward the exit, the lab doors exploded inward.Not from an enemy. From a friend.Runa Yozakura stumbled in. She wasn't holding her dagger. She was clutching her head, screaming."Get out!" she roared, her voice distorting into a digital screech. "Get out of my head!"Her skin wasn't turning to gold or pixels. It was turning into steel.Jagged metal spikes erupted from her shoulders. Her skin hardened into grey armor plates. Her eyes—usually burning violet—were flickering between human and a terrifying, glowing red slit."The Warrior Virus," Elara gasped, hiding behind a desk. "It's rewriting her aggression! It's turning her into a living weapon!"Runa fell to her knees. She looked at me."Master..." she wheezed. "Kill me. Before I... before I harvest you.""I don't kill my friends," I said.I grabbed the Dive Helmet from Sae’s bedside."Elara! Hook me up!""Are you crazy?" Ela
Chapter 174: Noir Justice
"But it’s going to cost you a dance."The red shadows surged forward, screaming like static interference. Sae racked the slide of her shotgun—a weapon made of pure, blinding white light."Get behind me, citizen," she ordered, her voice hard-boiled and devoid of the stutter she usually had around me.In this world—her mind—she wasn't just a detective. She was The Detective. The Protagonist.BOOM.She fired. A cone of white light vaporized three shadows instantly."Nice shot," I said, aiming my silver revolver. I pulled the trigger.Click.Nothing happened. No bullet. No light."What?" I frowned, shaking the gun. "It's jammed?""It's not jammed," Sae shouted over the roar of the fire. "It's narrative! In this city, the sidekick doesn't get the kill shot. You're just here for exposition!"(Exposition? I'm the Sovereign of Desire! I don't do exposition!)But as I looked down at my trench coat and fedora, I realized the truth. I wasn't the hero here. I was the supporting character. And if
Chapter 173: Digital Dive
I sprinted toward the villa, Sae’s frozen form held tight against my chest.She weighed almost nothing. It was like carrying a hollow shell made of glass and static. Every time a stray red particle from the atmosphere touched her, her edges flickered, threatening to dissolve into raw binary."Clear the way!" I roared as I kicked open the lab doors in the basement.(I saved a city. I slapped a god. But if I lose her to a computer virus, none of it matters.)Elara Musk was already there, her fingers flying across a holographic keyboard that was sputtering with red error messages. She didn't look up as I slammed Sae’s body onto the central diagnostic bed."The Core is pumping out corrupted data at three terabytes per second," Elara shouted over the whine of the cooling fans. "The island’s physics are 70% compromised. If we don’t pull the plug, the villa is going to clip through the tectonic plate.""Do it, then!" I yelled. "Pull the plug!""I can't!" Elara slammed her fist onto the desk.
Chapter 172: The Red Glitch
"Is this... allowed?"I had asked that question an hour ago while eating expensive pizza. Now, as the island beneath my feet began to dissolve into wireframes, the universe gave me its answer.No. It definitely wasn't.The static figure rising from the red ocean didn't move like a human. It moved like a video game character with a broken animation cycle, flickering between frames, its silhouette leaving trails of "ghost" images in the air."Master, get back!" Runa shouted.She lunged forward, her titanium dagger glowing with violet mana. She slashed at the static man, a strike meant to sever the very air he breathed.SHIIING—BZZZT.The blade passed through the static man, but it didn't cut him. Instead, the sound of the impact was replaced by a digital screech that made my teeth ache.Runa’s dagger didn't just bounce off; the metal itself began to jitter. The violet light flickered to a dull, jagged red."My weapon..." Runa gasped, pulling back. "It’s... vibrating. It feels like it’s
