CHAPTER 314: [314] ABIGAIL WHO CAME KNOCKING, AND THE AWAKENED STAR-SPAWN ON THE MOON [2]

"Abigail..."

Souma frowned as he looked at her.

Earlier, in the Lostbelt of Qin, he had a conversation with her.

He never expected that she would unhesitatingly use the power of the Father God Yog-Sothoth to summon him into the interstice of worlds.

This was precisely the middle ground between the inner world and the outer world.

He could see both sides of the world, yet belonged to neither.

The convergence of the two worlds made it extremely chaotic and disordered.

Even the familiar magical power became wildly chaotic, filled with a mysterious and terrifying whisper that could evaporate reason and plunge one into madness.

Perhaps that pink-haired faux boy Afo, who had lost his sanity, was more suited to this place.

But he clearly was not suited for it.

Fortunately, countless battles throughout human history had forged his will that surpassed the gods.

He completely ignored the influence of all mysterious whispers.

Abigail’s cute little face showed a hint of unease: "This is, as a Salem witch, please don’t be afraid."

Clearly, they had agreed to have a meal together, why did she look so unfamiliar upon meeting?

"Facing such a cute you, of course, I’m not afraid," Souma replied with a smile.

Since she had come knocking, he naturally had to repay her well.

This Salem witch had been feared as an evil existence since childhood.

In the end, she became a favored one of Yog-Sothoth, serving as a representative of the Outer Gods.

The keyhole on her forehead was the strongest proof of this.

She was a humanoid silver key.

Both a key and a door.

She could borrow the overwhelming power of Yog-Sothoth to unleash a true interdimensional treasure, capable of directly destroying the target enemy’s spirit and body.

Causing them to fall into madness with evaporated reason.

Abigail stepped forward, "So, you want to make me some pancakes?"

"Uh... sure!"

Souma’s expression was peculiar.

He had just cooked a meal and had been fed by Teima. Now he was going to cook for someone else.

Eating three meals in a row—

If it were the big eater, Artoria, she would absolutely love it!

"Yay~"

Abigail let out a small cheer.

She eagerly prepared the kitchen, setting out a full set of utensils and various tools.

"Please wait a moment."

Souma began to skillfully prepare the ingredients.

It was really strange.

Having arrived in this world between worlds, having encountered the avatar of an evil god, and yet here he was, cooking.

As expected, I’m more suited to being a master chef!

After a while.

On the soft, fluffy pancake lay perfectly crispy bacon, carefully grilled to perfection.

It was generously topped with steaming mashed potatoes, soaked in the essence of meat juices.

The sweet aroma wafted through the air, as if the entire dish was glowing.

A dish that doesn’t shine isn’t a good dish!

Abigail gently sniffed with her little nose, her eyes sparkling as she stared, "Can I eat now?"

"Of course, if it’s not enough, I can make you more," Souma replied with a smile.

She looked just like a greedy little girl, not much different from a mischievous child.

Hmm, a mischievous child is even scarier than her!

Souma felt quite complicated.

He usually took care of mischievous children, and had unknowingly grown accustomed to this accompanying fear.

Crunch~

Abigail took a delicate bite, the crisp sound echoing as a sweet, warm flavor exploded in her mouth.

She seemed to come alive with joy.

It gave Souma a feeling reminiscent of watching "Food Wars."

Indeed, only delicious food can bring happiness.

So, should it explode next—

Just as he was lost in thought.

He saw Abigail’s black gothic lolita dress suddenly burst open, revealing a cute white nightgown underneath, making her little face flush adorably.

Did it really explode?!

Abigail stuck out her pink tongue and licked her slender fingers, shyly saying, "Just like you said before, it really is delicious."

"Mm, I’m glad you like it," Souma replied gently.

Poor child, could it be that you’ve never tasted good food before?

Abigail suddenly came over, wrapping her small hands around his waist, "Occasionally, let me be spoiled... a disaster is about to sweep the Earth, and there are endless battles waiting for you."

"I know."

Souma hesitated for a moment, then gently patted her small back.

She had been treated as a witch since childhood, even her own parents feared her.

How pitiful.

"The last curse from the omnipotent god Zeus was not complete, and the gaze of the Father God is also watching you," Abigail’s little face pressed against his chest.

"..."

Souma felt a sense of impending darkness.

The outer evil god, the giant spider from South America, the lunar star soldier’s true form, and the potential emergence of the Primordial Father...

He had to achieve ultimate transcendence to truly resolve all threats!

At that moment.

Abigail suddenly grabbed his right hand and placed it on her forehead, "Please unlock my keyhole."

Just a touch made Souma feel as if he had touched the entire universe.

A colossal power, transcending everything, surged wildly within.

He felt entranced, his fingers slipping into the keyhole.

Something cold and mysterious brushed against his fingers.

He tried to pull back his hand, but it was impossible.

The mysterious entity filled all his senses—hearing, sight, smell, and more.

It was as if he had opened a door to a library.

Endless knowledge was displayed within, every page of every book opening before him.

This was the door to the truth of origins, an infinite expanse of knowledge flooding into his mind.

Just a glance was enough to drive a person completely mad, utterly unbearable.

Endless colorful orbs were blooming.

It felt as if a pair of eyes was watching him.

Buzz!

Souma finally broke free, realizing he was drenched in cold sweat.

It was terrifying.

Even with a will surpassing that of a god, it was somewhat difficult to bear.

This keyhole was clearly linked to Yog-Sothoth, the "One who is All and the All who is One!"

An entity that possessed endless knowledge and was exceedingly generous in responding to prayers, granting knowledge.

However,

Ordinary people, even gods, find it hard to endure such a gift.

For example.

If you were a mechanical enthusiast wanting to find a versatile god’s manual, and the entity simply gave you all the manuals.

Including every XP system in existence, every position, in black, white, and color—all gifted to you in one go.

Generosity beyond imagination.

However, such a gift would be akin to injecting something vast into the tiny body of Paimon.

It just wouldn’t fit, no matter how you thought about it.

Abigail’s eyes sparkled, "As expected, you can endure all of this!"

"I’m still a bit short," Souma wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and replied without hesitation.

This wasn’t modesty.

That outer god was already watching him, clearly signaling that it was not a good thing.

"Since you can bear the gift of the Father God, the power that connects all doors in the world, I can no longer suppress it."

Abigail’s little face was filled with struggle, "It’s too vast, it’s about to overflow. It’s your choice whether to save the world or to destroy it!"

"I just want to protect humanity, protect this world."

Souma answered with unwavering determination.

Even in the face of outer gods, star soldiers, and all terrifying enemies, he would fight to the end.

Though I may die nine times, I will not regret, I will seek the truth!

"Very well. If you don’t mind, I, Abigail Williams, will become the heroic spirit you summon, fighting alongside you!"

Abigail stood on her tiptoes to touch his forehead, smiling sweetly, "I hope you can call me Abi."

As the favored one of the evil god, she wished to descend into the world, and the only way was to become a heroic spirit, summoned by him.

Her class would be like that of Qin Shi Huang, not belonging to the seven major classes.

But uniquely her own—

[The Descendant!]

"Mm, thank you, Abi." Souma sighed in relief.

Does this count as having conquered the avatar of the evil god, once again saving humanity?

That terrifying evil god, could it be on par with the levels of [The Awakened] and [God]?

Too terrifying.

The level of terror far exceeded human malice.

He didn’t even know how to fight against it.

It was purely an existence of a different dimension.

It was like, how could a two-dimensional anime character on a screen fight against a three-dimensional real person?

As he pondered these thoughts.

Abigail’s magical power surged wildly.

A door opened before the two of them.

Souma saw that behind the door was a void, with a planet quietly floating in space.

It was filled with endless silence, not a trace of life to be seen.

However.

Behind it, there was a blue planet.

Souma instantly understood it was the Moon and the Earth!

As a humanoid silver key, she could open doors to anywhere.

This was also her confidence in being able to find him.

Since she opened the door to the Moon, it meant that the terrifying enemy had truly awakened.

Let’s not forget, the omnipotent god Zeus had provided information just before his death.

There were terrifying enemies capable of destroying humanity on the Moon, Earth, and the Sun.

Under his gaze.

On the side of the Moon facing away from the Earth.

The entire ground was collapsing with a thunderous roar, as a colossal, unimaginable horror was slowly breaking free from underground—it was—

The Star Soldier, Giant God Attila!
