Chapter 287: Chapter 280: Let's leave her alone
"I'm sorry, Yuki... I misunderstood everything."
Lowering her head, Yuno blushed and played with her fingers, embarrassed.
Needless to say, she was in her utmost happiness just moments ago.
For her, even death was a blessing because Yuki was with her.
Since she held the dying body of Yuki's clone in her arms, she thought Yuki had died. And though she was correct, it was his clone that died. She also heard that terrifying explosion, so she thought he had died as well. Her happiness soared when she saw Yuki in front of her because death was no obstacle to being together. For her, Yuki is her soulmate, and even in death, they will remain together. There was no doubt that Yuki belonged to her. This alone made all her desires to become God go down the drain; none of it mattered anymore since her goal had been fulfilled. She would be with Yuki for all eternity.
However, she couldn't be blamed; anyone would misinterpret their situation if they opened their eyes and found themselves in a space of darkness.
Unfortunately for Yuno, her wildest dreams did not come true since both Yuki and she were alive and well. She couldn't help but feel embarrassed when Yuki explained the situation to her.
"It's okay. The important thing is that you're okay..."
Shaking his head, Yuki sighed again. This girl was even more clingy than Mana.
So, looking into those heart-shaped pink eyes, a shiver ran down his spine. Yuki, seeing this, remembered a certain woman from his past life.
(There's no doubt Yuno will stab me one day.)
Anticipating his unfortunate future, Yuki mentally shook his head.
(However, in the end, if she were a normal woman, she'd be killed.)
From the start, he knew Yuno wasn't normal, and although she gives him the creeps, he's sure that only someone with an abnormal mentality would be able to win this survival game. Yuno, for instance, has such a dependent mentality that she won't hesitate to kill if ordered to.
This is bad for ordinary people because with a dependent and crazy mindset, surviving in society without going to jail would be a problem. However, for a Level 6 powerhouse like her, it's precisely this mentality that will help her not give up easily in this survival game. After all, she won't surrender as easily as an ordinary person, and her homicidal mental state will help her not feel remorse and hesitate when killing.
But at the same time, it's a disadvantage because her mental state would be a mess when the person she depends on dies, just like what happened a few minutes ago. She lost all rationality when she saw Yuki (Clone) die; it could be said that Yuki is Yuno's only weakness.
"For now, we have to focus on our new enemy..."
"Yes, Yuki!"
Calling Rasiel again, Yuki wasted no time. Information is power...
He needs to know exactly what he is facing and, if possible, find a way to flank her.

"Escaped... Huh?"
Crossing her arms, Novena murmured...
After all, she knows that wasn't enough to kill the Second.
The Second is the person who killed the Third, an assassin she narrowly escaped...
And although she hid and waited for the perfect moment to strike, she was right in the end; she couldn't kill the Second.
[April 10, 7:35 PM]
[The Second escaped, the Key remains free]
"The Key, what a troublesome brat..."
Recalling the boy dressed in the black and red gothic suit, Novena frowned.
Since she killed the Eighth, she heard another new fight happening in the city center, so she stayed hidden, waiting for the opportunity to act.
And among her observations, she saw the Key kill the Eleventh. It could be said that the kid gave her goosebumps because even her Future Diary warned her of the danger of the boy. However, Novena didn't escape since she remained hidden. She made sure to spy on the Key even more, unfortunately, the Key entered a shadow dimension, so she couldn't follow him.
But she clearly saw how Duodécimo faced that ice monster, as well as waiting outside the barrier, the perfect moment to test the Key's power.
And just as her diary predicted, the Second was saved by the Key.
"Hmp! You're a worthy opponent, Second... For now, I can't face you, but it won't be long until I have the power. I hope you don't die before I reach you again..."
Sighing coldly, Novena teleported. With her current strength, facing Yuno is very dangerous ---
and she is not a fool to confront her if the odds of winning are low, especially with two nuclear bombs acting together.

**"This is fun!"**
Waving her hands and munching on popcorn, a small figure with long silver hair smiled.
This person is Muru Muru, the demon assistant of Deus.
She was enjoying the action at the Cathedral of Casualty, watching the screen in front of her.
Not many hours had passed, but three of the nuclear bombs had already died.
- *Undécimo: [DEAD END]*
- *Octava: [DEAD END]*
- *Duodécimo: [DEAD END]*
Looking at their empty spots with the [DEAD END] floating, Muru Muru enjoyed this incredible game that Deus left to the world.
"It's so much fun; I'd like to join."
Waving her fists, Muru Muru's blood was boiling. Watching those fights and the scale of destruction were enough to excite the demon in her.
"Unfortunately, I can't."
But seeing the image of the world with that huge crown covering and rotating, extinguished her enthusiasm.
After all, the rules do not allow her to join and interfere in this survival game.
Of course, with Deus dead, she could disregard the rules and join the fun.
However, this would only provoke the Demon King, who protects the world, to awaken from his slumber and pursue her for influencing the world's rules.
And unlike Deus, she doesn't want to awaken that thing. After all, a Champion is not a joke. Even if it were a cat with nine lives, it wouldn't be enough for her to face that thing.
"Well, I guess I'll keep watching."
Shrugging, the screen changed, showing the Key with Yuno...
"Hm? This is strange~"
Seeing the Key, facing other participants, Muru Muru put her hand to her chin. According to the plan, the Champion will protect the world by entering a deep sleep while healing the world, and its crown is the absolute shield that prevents any scale of damage from being annulled.
But now...
"Whatever... I'll let everything follow its course."
Although this was abnormal, Yuno had not broken any rules since the Key materialized by itself.
That's why she didn't intervene...
However, she had to admit that the Key was indeed interesting. Its way of doing things was very amusing.
"Hehehe, the Key is very amusing... I guess I'll follow it from now on."
Smiling with amusement, Muru Muru brought more popcorn to her mouth, and at the same time, her eyes sparkled. After all, things had become more interesting; Champions are a box of surprises.

**"Alright... This is impossible, let's leave her alone."**
Sighing, Yuki smiled bitterly. After checking Rasiel and finding all the information about the Ninth, this was his impression of this woman.
"Uh? Why, Yuki... Aren't we going to kill her?"
Tilting her head, unable to understand, Yuno raised her katana ready to kill the next target. However, upon seeing Yuki sigh, she didn't know what to think...
...
Yuki, on the other hand, didn't respond to her; instead, he showed her the information about the Ninth.
*Plat
"I understand now... Let's avoid her, Yuki~"
"Yes, let's do that."
And of course, Yuno understood instantly. After seeing the information, closing the book in her hand.
Yuno wasn't an idiot. Unlike the Eleventh, she knew it would be a waste of energy and time dealing with someone like the Ninth.
That's why, like Yuki, Yuno sighed. This war for the position of God was entering an increasingly larger scale of destruction.
