Satou here . You could find lots of boss characters that break the game balance during the dawn of computer games .
When I first entered the industry, my seniors told me that it was a tactic to prevent those games from getting sold to second-hand stores, but I still believe they're not being serious even now . I think it's simply because they couldn't make final adjustments to those bosses before they hit the deadline .

『--Incoming Black Octopus class!』
That thing is pretty resistant to magic, they're a pain to deal with .
『Arisa, this is my turn so I announce . 』
『OK, we'll leave defending to you, Nana . 』
『Yes Arisa . 』
Multiple layers of the latest type of Castle get deployed, protecting our spaceship .
『Transformation! Trinity Staff Mode!!』
There's no such mode, but I made it so our spaceship transform just as Arisa imagined in her head .
I simply need to copy wand ship's function which should be limited to one originally and make it three instead .
『You're in charge of aiming, Lulu!』
『Un, I got it . Firearms Control Anti-god Mode . 』
『Aye aye Ma'am, Fire Control Setting, Anti Immortal Mode . 』
The ship's bow that has been split into three are getting wrapped in rainbow colored lights .
『Mythology Down . 』
『Mythology Extinction . 』
『Mythology Gluttony . 』
Three anti-god magic shot with the spaceship's assistance swallows up the black octopus .
Mia's [Mythology Gluttony] is a minor change version customized from [Mythology Eater] for space use .
Its direct damage is no different from Mythology Eater but it falls short on continuous damage .
Though unlike on ground, keeping up on continuous damage is hard in space due to its vastness, thus Mythology Gluttony is simply the superior choice for space use .
『--No way . 』
『It survived getting hit by three anti-god magic amplified by the space ship?』
A black globe came out of the explosion .
『Don't worry . We did damage it . It's not unscathed . It's true you know? Its core has been exposed, now's our chance to finish it off . So please, take care of the rest--』
Mia's right, the black octopus has been severely injured .
『Acknowledged . 』
『--First Blade, Unlimited Propagation--Mythology Fang~?』
Countless clones of Tama spun around with huge fangs growing all over those clones body, turning the mountain range-sized creature into a mincemeat as it was attempting to regenerate the body portion that protects its core .
First time I've seen this technique, but it appears to be a developed form of her special technique [Vanquish Fang] .
She must have worked really hard trying to recreate Arisa and the girls' anti-god magic .
『Second Blade, Lyuryu and Pochi's Friendship Unite Strike--Dragon Drill Stratos, nanodesu!』
Lyuryu and Pochi who's united as one single dragon dog zoomed out at near lightspeed toward the core that Tama exposed .
Transparent blue and jet black sparks scattered everywhere .
『Gunyunyunyunyu--』
--LYURYURYU .
The emergency rocket booster on Pochi's and Lyuryu's exosuit spewed flames out .
However, even that wasn't enough to break apart the too enormous core .
『--Guts, nanodesu!』
--LYU!
Magic Edge Cannons shot out of Pochi's and Lyuryu's tails one after another .
The outer shell protecting the core vibrated intensely .
『WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO nanodesu!』
--LYURYURYU .
The outer shell finally yielded to Pochi's and Lyuryu's guts, a crack was formed on it .
Right as the two exhausted their power, the core's outer shell broke into pieces like an obsidian .
『Very well done desuwa!』
『Lizsan! We have retrieved Pochi-chan and Lyuryu!』
『Affirmative--』
The fighter craft Zensan and lady Karina piloted towed Pochi and Lyuryu away from the outer shell .
『< There, at laser-like speed, Liza along with a lone white light pierced through like a single arrow . "Ooh, amazing . " I didn't think the girls would be able to defeat that annoying Black Octopus . 『Get away, Lizsan!』 Okay, now that's way out of their league . I get in there with Unit Arrangement to shield Liza and the others . The sight of satellite-sized Black Octopuses charging straight at me looks quite impactful . --Space magic 『Summon Sun (Call Flare)』 . By connecting space to the surface of the sun, I called forth the flares erupting out of it to roast the Black Octopuses . One shot of Flare isn't enough to kill them huh . "These guys are pointlessly tough . " Dragon God caught up to Black Octopuses, then she bit them down with her enormous jaws, and tore them apart with her fangs and claws . As expected of the strongest god . --Crisis Perception . "Kagura!" The moment I shouted, the Black Octopuses clung to Dragon God at near light speed one after another, covering her rainbow light in jet black color . 『Dragon God-sama!』 Sponsored Content --I won't just stand by and watch . I teleported next to Kagura with Unit Arrangement and took out the Moon Drawn Sword . And now to match my body size to it--done . 『Master turned gigantic nodesu!』 I slash at the Black Octopuses with the Moon Drawn Sword now that I'm sized up just right to wield it . "This thing isn't too sharp . " Using Unit Creation, I synthesize the broken Holy Magic Divine Sword Pendragon lying in my Storage with the Moon Drawn Sword . Unit Creation is way too convenient . With the newly formed rainbow-colored Moon Drawn Sword in hand, I sliced and diced all the Black Octopuses and freed Kagura . "Yup, nice going . " I had a competition with Kagura to see which would kill more . 『Don't tell me, he's as strong as Dragon God-sama?』 I felt like I could hear the girls saying something, but I ignored it . 『 . . . This much gap . 』 Even god Tenion sounded astounded . As I gleefully hunted down the black octopuses together with Dragon God, I suddenly felt a presence of noise from the side . 『Nyu!』 A golden shining light emerged out of black clouds formed by the Bizarre Creatures . The creature shining golden spots a bizarre chaotic form, like a cross between plant, fish and bird . According to AR reading, it's named Gold Bird Tree Fish (Chaos) . "What an ugly fake . " For now-- . --Space Magic Call Flare . After burning it with flames of origin, I let out a volley of [Mythology Down] . 『--No way, it's not working at all?』 "Well I mean, you often see last bosses that won't go down with that much attack--" I turned around to look at Kagura . "Will fangs work?" Right they were . Sponsored Content Then we should manage somehow . I took up a newly copied rainbow Moon Drawn Sword in my other hand, sized up to match Chaos and kept slicing and dicing it using both swords . "This thing is so obstinate . " The part I cut and stab keeps regenerating, damage just won't accumulate . 『Master, please let us help you . 』 Beastkin girls riding on Black Dragon Heiron came to help . "Let them help . Should be doable for the you now, right Ichirou?" I understand that the thing Kagura is referring to can be done . "Everyone, will you lend me your strength?" The girls replied unanimously to that question with an obvious answer . Unit Creation--Familiar Gods . I made the girls big enough to fight Chaos, and handed them copied Moon Drawn Swords and weapons transformed from those swords . "Let's do this . " A rainbow-colored storm swept over, golden sparks flew everywhere in space . After brute forcing our way through numbers, Chaos finally suffered wounds all over its body . Is it thanks to ether that sounds get transmitted in a vacuum space? "Ah! It's running away!" Chaos ran off toward the deep space while purging down its crumbling body . "Tama won't let you go~?" Tama and Pochi ran after it at light speed, blocking Chaos's way . Chaos ran even faster while screaming out . "Chasing that thing all over the place would be bothersome . " The corner of Kagura's mouth lifted up gleefully . "Pochi, Tama, come back here . " I got them back here, would be disastrous if they got swept up in it . "I'll go first . " --Meteor Shower . Innumerable meteors showed up out of nowhere, raining down upon Chaos . Its clone bodies ran off by using its real body as a scapegoat, but Meteor Shower did not overlook that and turned those clones to space seaweed . "Still clinging on to dear life after all that huh . . . " Chaos that had been completely obliterated along with its clone bodies is beginning to regenerate . Rainbow lights are overflowing next to me . The light wrapping Kagura's Dragon God body shined even brighter, rainbow lights gather inside her greatly opened jaws . A moment later, a flash of light dyed the space rainbow . In godly vision unaffected by light, I saw Chaos getting erased away by Kagura's breath, evaporating even its body that had spread into adjacent worlds . "--It's regenerating?" Chaos that should have been completely obliterated has started to regenerate back . "This is why I detest this thing . It's way too tenacious despite being so weak . " Using Unit Arrangement, I move us all including Chaos to the center of the galaxy . "Beau~tiful~?" Everyone is watching a fountain of blue light gushing out of a black disc . "You gonna grind it down there?" I grabbed Chaos with my divinity, packed it down inside anti-god magic seals, then I sent it inside the black hole using sight-based Unit Arrangement . It shouldn't be possible for it to get out of that so long as it doesn't have foul play skills like Unit Arrangement . "Most revived adversaries get a power up though . " Arisa, don't set up some weird flag please . "Then we're just gonna get even stronger to deal with it . " After saying that, I turned my back on the center of the galaxy and made my way back to our planet together with everyone . ※ Final chapter of the main story is planned for 3/8
Black Octopus's core that had lost its protection had no way to bear this attack, its life force lost its shine as it stopped moving .
Watching their unexpected growth, I'm feeling so proud of them from the bottom of my heart .
Let's give them the highest possible praise once this is all over .
『More Black Octopuses . --Ten of them?!』
I invoked [Planet Guard] behind me to protect the girls from a spell I was going to activate next .
The space magic used to call the flares may not work, but being a natural phenomena, solar flares cannot be erased by the Black Octopuses' magic annulment .
Black Octopus burned by the Flames of Origin (Flare) stopped moving before entering self-regeneration mode .
Even though they've stopped moving from my Flare, I can't believe she just went and massacred those tenacious octopuses so easily .
『This looks bad, doesn't it?』
"I think she's going to be okay--"
『Ouh, greato~?』
"Nothing less to expect from Ichirou . I shan't lose myself . "
『World Crisis . . . 』
Turning my line of sight there, I noticed the dragons who were having fun battling the Bizarre Creatures moving oddly .
"Finally showed itself up huh . "
Its size is such that the black octopuses around it look fist-sized . The thing is as big as a planet .
"But of course . My fangs 『Pierce All』 . "
Kagura beat up Chaos with Dragon God's fangs and tail .
"See? I told you it's a pain . "
『Pochi and gang will help nodesu!』
『Tama will do her best~?』
『Ichirou-nii! Remember, strength in numbers!』
『Kuh, she said it ahead of me!』
Followed by the spaceship guarded by heavenly dragons .
"""OU"""
Gouged down to its bones, Chaos roared out like it was screaming .
"Pochi is a pro at playing tag nanodesu!"
"Well then, let's finish it off with a Map Weapon . "
"Good idea . "

I gather the enormous divinity sleeping inside my soul on my palm .
Recreating the image of 'most powerful' I carry in me .
Tens of thousands meteors tore apart Chaos's layered barriers, drilling its bare body full of holes .
◇
"Let's just dump it away then . "
"""So pretty""" "nanodesu!"
"That light is something vicious enough to utterly pulverize even the sun, let alone planets though . "
"It would just split apart and fly around everywhere if I did that--"
Even if it managed to, it should take thousands, ten thousands of years .
