Re:write The Authors Transmigration-Chapter 299: The end is near

"Aarghhhh... everything hurts. Just what happened to me– Morris! Where are you!!? God damn it I let my guard down," Yuri recalled their unfortunate encounter with his rogue personality which took her and the rest whilst leaving his friend to die

"Stop with your useless flailing it’s not gonna do shit. Just sit back and relax... the only thing we can do is wait," Judging by his indifferent demeanor Yuri quickly guessed the person below her cell was none other than Spell Thief

"Spell Thief you’re alive?" She tried to lean closer to the edge to get a better view but at the cell below and saw his signature white hair

"What do you think I am a ghost? Sorry if that sounds sarcastic. I’m just fucking annoyed that we got captured," Spell Thief punches the reinforced steel which drains him of his mana and chi as long as he’s alive

"True that, I must say it’s fucking insane, why the hell is he considered a boss if can come right at us? In the end, it’s all up to Christoper to save our skin, what do you think his chances are? Hey guys I know you can hear me, we might as well talk to each other since we can’t do shit," Zen proposed to the rest to reveal their opinion on the matter at hand, and everyone thought the same but the answer is simple

"Wouldn’t it be a draw?" Some sided with Christoper to win and others thought of Uberious but Yuri was the only one who came to this conclusion

"A draw?" Every alter ego present was confused by her conclusion and the reason why her answer came with no victor

"Picture this we’re inside Morris’s head. That technically makes him a god. But you guys are Morris as well. I’m not good at explaining but hear me out, what if the reason you lost was because you believed Uberious was stronger? Just because he was consumed by the demonic energy oozing from Diabolus’s core just that thought made you believe he was strong,"

The alter egos had finally understood the reason for their defeat against Uberious was themselves all along. They believed he was stronger and in the dreamscape where their thoughts make up reality, Uberious grew stronger due to their beliefs. As their belief in him solidifies their authority weakens allowing Uberious to taint Christoper’s brain with his rule

"So all this time we were the ones at fault for making him strong? If it weren’t for us... he wouldn’t be that much of a threat–" Spell Thief’s words were then interrupted as the doors opened revealing the figure lurking in their side

"Ding ding ding! Looks like we have ourselves a winner. Who’d have thought that the one to figure that out was my friend," Uberious nonchalantly ruined their mood and floated near Yuri to congratulate her on discovering the secret to his strength

"You’re not my friend!!!" She glared at his very existence with not a wink for her eyes to rest indicating her deep resentment towards Uberious

"Ouch! Well, that hurts my feelings. Why is it that even you reject me? I am your friend, just not the one you knew very well, but it wouldn’t matter in the end. I won’t kill him since I have no clue what will occur but I will replace him. Once I’m finished with him he’ll understand that fighting me was the wrong idea," He leaves the dungeon and proceeds to walk up to the corridor where he encounters his helper

"I love the speech Uberious. The way you spoke brought out the insanity in your eyes. Not a fan of small talk huh?" Uberious passed through Makino without a single care in his mind and he halted in a distance where he could hear his voice

"Speak of the reason you visit. I’m busy at the moment. I only put up a front for my captives. If it’s not important then–"

"Do you think you can win? I just came here to ask you about that. Are you sure that you’ll prevail in a fight against him?"

"So you’re doubting me now after you chose my side–"

"Since when have I chosen anyone’s side? Weren’t you the one who made it clear? I side with Christoper Morris," After he heard it again Uberious realized that Makino never meant him as a whole but the one he’d converse with

"But then–"

"Don’t take this the wrong way. I do side with the original but do I see him suited? That’s the reason for your existence,"

Makino revealed then and there that his existence was nothing more than an ordeal so he could gauge their value. The role of the Demon King wasn’t to be obtained by the most vile but the one acknowledged by Diabolus. Following its awakening it brought forth the remainder of its origin to test whether the one chosen by his creation was deserving

"But don’t let this fact discourage you, Uberious. If you do win then I’ll assist you. It’s his fault if he loses to a part of himself,"

That promise was enough for Uberious to ignore the part that he’s been used to and continue where he left off. Upon entering the castle he was greeted by the remainder of his generals whilst the soldiers saluted in his presence. Just when everything looked calm and vibrant a messenger barged from the gates to the throne

"Your majesty! The enemies have arrived. Our walls had been breached. Most of our soldiers were killed in his path,"

Uberious was so confused about how fast Christoper progressed that his grip tightened destroying a portion of his throne. "Where is he now–"

"He’s right over here,"

Before he finished his words a luminescent wave came hurling through the room and quickly closing the gap for his neck. The messenger in the guise of the enemy’s armor revealed itself to be none other than the Brave hero. Equipped with dwarven platings and the majestic holy sword gifted by the heaven sacred sword Crucible in his hand

[Did we get him?]

’Sage I love your enthusiasm but you’re cutting me too short if my personality is that easy of a target. Just look, he’s trying to lure me in but I know that bastard blocked my attack, too bad I wouldn’t fall for such a trick. Which meant that he’d order his lackeys to tire me out, the oldest trick in the book, but where are they gonna attack?’

Just as he assumed the forces of Uberious jumped from all sides, locking him in place until he snapped his finger. As the signal he conspired came to be accomplished the canopy of the throne room broke, making an opening for his troops. Memes we’re neck and neck with Uberious’s monstrous horde leaving the two alone in ending their lives

[System: Due to the authority of the owner of the Third trial, you’re currently incapable of getting assistance with your other Ego’s

Status: The moment you’ve locked eyes with the Demon King your focus revolves around them by the effects of [Enemy]

Outcome: Although your focus is offset to only target the Demon King the effect of [Enemy] also plagues your foe]

"Fuck... so a solo duel eh? Well, don’t mind if I do. I’ve been dying to kill you once and for all, Cringe!!!" Christoper points his blade in the direction of his foe with his bloodlust violently exuding from the very depths of his body

"... Cringe is no longer my name. I am the leader of all Demons. The absolute, I am Uberious, the third incarnate!!!" Uberious in turn responds by spreading his wings and propelling Christoper out of the castle with a flap of his wings

"You wanna die so badly huh? Then so be it. I never once liked you. You’re a pain in the ass. A freaking liability!!!" Morris successfully taunts him with such loathsome words which engages him even further than before

"Christoper!!!"

"Uberious!!!"

...

Near the border of the Holy Empire

In that same period, the Demonic army was but a mile away, and two hours only to remain until Christoper’s certain end. On their journey to reach their King in captivity, they’re greeted with millions of worthless lives blocking their way. Not a single one flinched although fear-stricken they never once ran for their lives would contribute to the longevity of their kingdom

"We’re here..." Rachel peeked at her stopwatch and surprisingly she wasn’t anxious nor indifferent and nodded at Jin

"It’s our time, right now? Well, I guess this is it. Alrighty, Blake, Quon, and Kyo Min-soo... come over here!"

Despite their far distance apart the call of Death was enough to gather the three knights of catastrophes. Although not one had spoken a word of their plans, just their presence was enough of an explanation. Since ancient times it was foretold that the gathering of the Four Horsemen meant the uprising of the apocalypse

[System: The requirements of the scenario [Gathering of the Four Horsemen] have been triggered!

Status: The Four Heavenly Demon Generals have transformed into their respected Knighthood!!!

Lore: As the Seven Deadly Sins bore corruption, the Four Horsemen were the symbol of man-made ruination. They’re no demons but existences as frightening as the Devil itself for they cause havoc in the realm of man. Their expiration is the same as humanity for their existence was born from the abhorrence of the living]

"It’s morphin time!"

Their transformation follows the same sequence as the weekly TV show Power Rangers slowly materializing their armor. The darkness coming from the ground up merges and transforms the four into their fullest potential. Bearing their respected armor and weapon they led the charge in their ghastly steeds bringing upon the birth of the apocalypse
