Problem: How to most fundamentally, thoroughly, and perfectly "execute" a distorted conceptual lifeform composed of Law and Consciousness?
Analysis:
Destroy it with overwhelming force. Feasible—but inelegant, and it fails to eradicate the root. As long as the Laws of "Chaos" and "Devouring" exist in the universe, there remains a chance—however small—for it to reconstitute itself from the river of laws.Erase its soul. This too treats only the symptoms. Its consciousness is merely a vine clinging to the tree of Law. As long as the tree stands, it may sprout again.
Neither is optimal.
Best solution: Cut off the source—perform existential deconstruction.
If its composition is A (Law) + B (Consciousness), then simply remove A from the equation. Once the foundational Laws are stripped away, the dependent consciousness becomes rootless, collapsing instantly from a "god" into the most insignificant remnant of awareness.
This is not killing.
This is reducing a god… to protozoa.
Spell constructed—named: [Law Stripping].
"It's over."
Lin Sen raised his right hand, pointing a single finger toward the chaotic vortex that loomed before him.
His motion was casual—almost elegant.
As if conducting a symphony, not facing a world-ending attack.
"[Law Stripping]."
There was no explosion.
No blinding light.
But the evil god—
Let out the most horrific scream it had ever uttered.
[AAAAAAAH——!!!]
[What… What is this?! What have you done to me?!]
A power beyond comprehension pierced straight into its core, ignoring all defenses, all laws.
Then—
Under Lin Sen's calm gaze—
A scene unfolded that would shatter even a god's understanding.
From within the massive vortex, two radiant chains—formed from countless ancient runes—were forcibly dragged out by an invisible hand.
One radiated chaotic, twisted energy.
The other exuded devouring darkness.
These were its foundation.
It's godhood.
Its very existence.
And now—
They were being stripped away.
[No! STOP—STOP!!!]
The god howled in absolute terror.
Its power, status, and consciousness collapsed like an avalanche as the chains were torn free.
It struggled desperately—
But [Law Stripping] was a command at the conceptual level.
Irresistible.
Irreversible.
"I told you," Lin Sen said coldly, "you don't even qualify to explode in front of me."
Rip—!
The chains were fully extracted.
They hovered in the void, radiant and pure.
Freed.
The vortex collapsed.
All darkness vanished.
All power dissipated.
What remained—
Was a faint, flickering gray remnant of a soul.
Weak. Fading.
No longer a god.
Lin Sen looked down at it.
"Now… you are nothing."
The void fell silent.
Beside him, the chains of Chaos and Devouring circled obediently.
Below, the remnant trembled.
For the first time—
I understood.
This man wasn't here to challenge a god.
He was here to hunt one.
"Not the purest," Lin Sen murmured, "but acceptable nourishment."
He opened his mouth.
And inhaled.
BOOM—!!!
A terrifying force erupted.
The remnant was instantly stretched into a stream of gray-gold energy and sucked into him.
In its final moment, regret twisted across its fading consciousness.
Too late.
In seconds—
The god was gone.
And within Lin Sen—
Transformation began.
Energy surged like a cosmic flood through his body.
His magic expanded—
From the ocean…
To a galaxy.
His body evolved.
Bones like divine jade.
Blood like roaring rivers.
Cells absorb energy from the void.
He was ascending—
From mortals…
Toward divine.
His soul soared higher.
He perceived laws.
He heard the whispers of energy.
At his core—
A trace of golden divinity was born.
Then—
He felt it.
A barrier.
The divide between mortal and god.
A wall that countless geniuses had failed to cross.
Lin Sen smiled faintly.
And pushed.
Crack.
Like glass shattering—
The barrier broke.
Power flooded every part of his being.
He opened his eyes.
The world had changed.
No longer just a picture—
But a fully realized structure of laws and information.
"So this… is the threshold of godhood."
Though he had yet to form a true godhead—
His existence had already stepped into the domain of gods.
Back on Earth.
Silence filled the International Confederation of Wizards.
Time dragged endlessly.
No signal.
No trace.
Hope faded.
"Still no energy fluctuations…" a wizard reported hoarsely.
Even Dumbledore looked uneasy.
Had Lin Sen… fallen?
Then—
The rift trembled.
"It moved!"
Everyone stood.
Hold their breath.
Before the eyes of billions—
A figure stepped out from the purple-black void.
Slowly.
Calmly.
Lin Sen had returned.
