Chapter 46: A god who loves humanity! The omnipotent Kyubey, the God of Love!
〜Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann World〜
"Earth... humanity,"
A figure in the endless cosmic sea of stars casually pushed aside galaxies, searching.
Finally, he stopped at a blue planet.
"Humanity..."
The Anti-Spiral did not attack, or rather, could not attack. He observed every move of the humans on the blue planet, and finally sighed deeply.
It was an existence born from such a weak race.
What is the Infinite Box? Simply put, it is the ultimate profound truth of everything, the unreachable final shore, a truly transcendent place.
The extreme point of all things!
A multiverse contains single universes, and a multiverse is enveloped by an infinite multiverse.
And the Infinite Box is an existence more diverse than a multiverse, more omnipotent than an omniverse.

The underwater city of R'lyeh in the South Pacific.
In the deep sea, endless chaos and ominousness enveloped the entire world, and the unspeakable existence murmured.
At the same time, all the Deep Ones on the coast revealed mad and twisted expressions. The next moment, countless twisted and chaotic images flooded their minds—
.....
〜Dao of the Bizarre Immortal World〜
The moment Fusheng Tian saw the girl on the screen, all eyes focused on her.
But... neither Da Nuo nor the existence above Da Nuo changed.
Because from beginning to end, their gazes never left Fusheng Tian. Da Nuo was crazy, the Three Pure Ones were crazy, the whole world was crazy!
In the mental hospital, Li Huowang looked at the screen that still existed in the real world. His expression twisted into a mad laugh.
"That's right, that's right, your Daoist Master is crazy, your Daoist Master is really crazy! Hahahahaha!"
( Translator-kun: I don't know if 'Da Nou' was a person or a cultivation level.. Please let me know what 'Da Nou' is. )

『 "Click—clack—click—clack." In a gray and white world, a clock ticked. In a world of twisted lines, a girl named Kaname Madoka ran with all her might.
Overcoming stairs, climbing buildings, something was attracting the girl—
Finally, after struggling to push open the door in front of her, the girl was stunned by the scene before her.
The world had turned black and white, the ground was shattered, and high above, a strange, evil, terrifying giant figure let out a sharp laugh.
But even so... there was an existence fighting against it!
Kaname Madoka clearly saw that the blurry figure fighting against it was no match for the giant monster in the sky!
Knocked back again and again, but charged forward again and again...
And that figure... the girl involuntarily wanted to reach out, her heart pounding as if it would leap out.
"This is too much, there's no way!" Even though her body was trembling, the girl still shouted.
At some point, a cute, cat-like white creature with four ears and red eyes appeared beside Kaname Madoka. It agreed wholeheartedly.
"Yes, if you give up, it's over, but—"
The white creature looked at Kaname Madoka.
"If it's you, you can change fate."
"Unavoidable destruction and lament, you just have to overturn them all. You also possess the power to do all of this."
"Really...? Can someone like me really change everything?" Kaname Madoka's body trembled violently. She couldn't believe someone like her could do it.
"Really, so make a contract with me and become a Magical Girl!"
The white creature blinked, looking incredibly cute.
"————" The figure fighting the witch seemed to be shouting something, but Kaname Madoka heard nothing—
Blinding light shone into the room.
"Ugh—" Kaname Madoka opened her eyes, looking at the doll she was hugging, and let out a sigh of relief, "Ah~ it was a dream."
After saying goodbye to her parents and younger brother, Madoka met her two good friends, Sayaka Miki and Hitomi Shizuki, on the way.
The three of them walked towards the school, playing and laughing. 』

[ Sakura Kinomoto (Cardcaptor Sakura): "You scared me, it was just a dream. But Madoka, isn't your dream a bit too weird? Aren't Magical Girl dreams supposed to be sweet?" ]
[ Misaka Mikoto (A Certain Magical Index): "Exactly, it has a chaotic feel like a Western oil painting, but the art style in the end is very healing." ]
[ Orochimaru (Naruto): "It doesn't look like a god. So, gods weren't born at the very beginning, right?" ]
[ Mamika Kirameki (Re-Creators): "Madoka looks so cute, especially with her pink hair. We have the same hair color!" ]

"So, if Madoka was dreaming, does that mean the white creature that formed a contract with a Magical Girl was just part of her imagination?"
"It resembles Kero-chan, a charming little creature that forms contracts with Magical Girls as well~"
Sakura Kinomoto pinched Kero-chan.
"It's not the same,"
Kero-chan batted away Sakura's small hand, retorting,
"I have emotions, that guy doesn't seem to have any emotions at all!"
"Eh?"
The girl was stunned, clearly a little disbelieving.
How could a cute creature that contracts Magical Girls not have emotions?

『 Arriving at school, most of the students were, as usual, celebrating their youth. Madoka, as the class's hygiene committee member and a kind person, naturally had a respectable position.
But unlike usual, a new transfer student arrived in class today.
"So, Akemi-san, welcome," the teacher looked towards the door.
Long black hair reaching her waist, a cute and delicate face, the girl showed no sign of shyness in the face of the students' surprised gasps.
When she clearly saw Homura Akemi, Madoka was immediately stunned. She bore some resemblance to the figure in her dream...!
"I'm Homura Akemi, pleased to meet you," the girl coldly introduced, only her name.
After speaking, Homura Akemi's gaze met Kaname Madoka's under the podium.
The direct gaze immediately made Madoka blush. She shyly looked left and right, not daring to meet Homura Akemi's eyes directly. 』

[ Ebina Hina (Oregairu): "Hehe, girls can too, you know." ]

[ Hanamichi Sakuragi (Slam Dunk): "Hiss, is it my imagination? I feel like all transfer students are really amazing." ]
[ Merlin (Type-Moon): "But to Merlin-oniichan, this child named Homura Akemi seems to have somewhat empty eyes~" ]

"Has she suffered some setbacks? She seems to have some trauma in her heart,"
Merlin chuckled.
If he were in this world, Merlin-oniichan would definitely give her some good guidance~

『 After class, Homura Akemi was immediately surrounded by people, their words full of curiosity. Such a cool yet cute girl perfectly hit their soft spot.
Homura Akemi feigned a headache, declined the others' good intentions, and turned to find Kaname Madoka behind her.
"Kaname Madoka, you're the class's hygiene committee member, right? Can you take me to the infirmary?"
"Ah... that," Madoka was stunned, but didn't refuse, and obediently followed behind Homura Akemi.
What puzzled Madoka was why Homura Akemi knew she was the hygiene committee member on her first day of transfer.
And to go to the infirmary, Madoka didn't need to lead the way at all. The two walked one after another. Madoka didn't know what to say and could only make awkward small talk.
"Just call me Homura," Homura Akemi said coldly.
Madoka was stunned; she didn't expect the seemingly cold Homura to be surprisingly easy to talk to, "Homura...?"
"What is it?"
"Ah, that, it's such a strange name... No, that, I didn't mean strange, I meant it's a very cool name, something like that," Madoka, a conversational genius, immediately ended the topic.
And Homura seemed to be unable to bear it anymore. In the enclosed corridor.
She turned around, her expression cold and gloomy, "Kaname Madoka, do you think your life is precious?"
"Do you value your family and friends?"
"Ah, that, I..." Madoka was startled by her gloomy and serious expression, but still answered honestly, "Of course I value them very much, my family and friends."
"They are all people I love very much, the most important people."
"Really?" Homura Akemi confirmed.
"Really! Why would I lie?" Madoka felt inexplicably confused.
"Is that so... If it's true, then never try to become someone else, otherwise you will lose everything!"
"Just live your life as Kaname Madoka, as you have until now, and in the future too," Homura Akemi said, then turned and left.
Leaving Madoka, who was bewildered and at a loss, with her mouth open, not knowing what to do. 』

"Homura..."
A hint of doubt and heartache flashed in Kaname Madoka's eyes.
They were two strangers, but why did her heart feel an uncontrollable sadness when she saw Homura like this...?
And... countless barrage comments appeared before Madoka's eyes, making the already uneasy girl even more anxious.
〜Myriad Worlds livestream Barrage〜
'This is a love story between a god and a demon.'
'Do you respect order more than desire?'
'Madoka's famous scene.'
'You must love, you must cherish.'
'Homura is holding back from being gentle with Madoka.'
'God loves all people, but the demon only loves God.'
.....
"God loves all people, demon... loves God?"
Madoka couldn't understand the meaning of the barrage of comments before her.
Right now, her heart was only filled with confusion and fear.
"Homura, what exactly are you hiding?"
Madoka's unease grew more urgent, her breathing even becoming difficult.
Her intuition told her... Homura was hiding something incredible!
Meanwhile, on the other side, Homura's gaze retracted from the screen. In her hand was still a cute, blood-stained creature.
Homura Akemi had once asked the Administrator what kind of karma she would bear if she killed Kyubey—
But the result was that there was no karma to bear. Homura Akemi was very disappointed.
The reason was obvious: there were countless Kyubeys, killing them was meaningless.
"But... even so, I will do my best!"
Homura Akemi looked at Madoka on the screen with a hint of adoration in her eyes.
"Madoka... I will, I will definitely save you!"

『 As a transfer student, Homura Akemi had perfect grades and was good at all sports, truly excelling in both academics and athletics. But her gaze towards Madoka was always a little strange.
After class that day, Madoka, feeling troubled, complained about it to her friend. To clear her head, Madoka and Sayaka went to a CD store to listen to music.
At the same time, in a dark place, a white figure constantly flashed, dodging attack after attack.
"Save me—save me," Just as Madoka was happily listening to music, a weak cry for help echoed in her mind!
It wasn't an illusion—
Madoka confirmed this, and following the sound, she quickly arrived at a dark place.
With a bang, the ceiling fell, and a blood-stained white creature dropped down.
Madoka immediately hugged it, looking at the unknown creature with worry.
"Save me—" the white creature said with difficulty.
Cold chains dragged on the ground. In the dark corridor, a cold gaze fell on Madoka.
"Homura...?" Madoka said in shock.
"Leave that thing," Homura's voice seemed emotionless.
"But... but this creature is injured," Madoka held the creature tightly in her arms, refusing to let go.
But Homura didn't seem to intend to let it go. The cold chains in her hand swayed, as if they would swing out at any moment!
Just then, Sayaka, holding a fire extinguisher, appeared in time. She used the fire extinguisher to briefly force Homura Akemi back, then the two began to flee.
But to their horror, no matter how they ran, they could never escape this small floor.
Iron thorns, dark chains, butterflies, distorted windows, twisted sharp laughter—
The entire space began to twist violently. If they had to describe it, the two of them at this moment were like they had gone insane!
Just as the strange monster was about to devour the two, a blonde girl forcefully entered from outside.
Without much wasted breath, the blonde girl immediately transformed into a Magical Girl!
With a wave of her hand, tens of thousands of white magic guns appeared behind her. Under the barrage of artillery fire, the strange monster was beaten and fled in a panic!
After driving away the witch, Mami Tomoe took Kyubey from Madoka's arms and thanked the two.
And Homura, who had been chasing them, chose to leave after confronting Mami-senpai. 』

[ Chika Fujiwara (Love Is War): "Indeed, all fear stems from insufficient firepower!" ]

[ Last Order (A Certain Magical Index): "Misaka Misaka understands, Homura Akemi is the enemy, that's why she said those things to Madoka before, and later she even chased after such a cute Kyubey!" ]
[ Illyasviel Von Einzbern ⦍Magical Girl⦎ (Type-Moon): "Yeah, why did Homura Akemi chase Kyubey? And, is Homura Akemi the only enemy? What was that monster that made people insane that they just encountered?" ]

"It feels like... a Van Gogh painting, doesn't it?"
Ruiko frowned.
The world Madoka and Sayaka entered just now felt like they had entered a Van Gogh painting, twisted and chaotic, as if they were in the mind of a severely deranged mental patient.
—
『 Afterwards, Mami-senpai, to thank them, took them home and introduced them to the details about Magical Girls.
The white creature was named Kyubey. Any girl chosen by Kyubey could become a Magical Girl, and after becoming a Magical Girl, a Soul Gem would also be born.
This was the source of magic, and also the proof of being a Magical Girl.
And Mami-senpai also revealed a truth that made the two of them very excited.
Before making a contract with Kyubey, Kyubey could unconditionally grant any wish they had!
"Any wish is fine, I can help you achieve any miracle," Kyubey said seriously.
Mami-senpai could vouch for this.
And the corresponding price was that those who became Magical Girls would be given the mission to fight witches! 』
『 .....』
『 Viewers of Myriad Worlds 』
Everyone's expressions suddenly became strange and fervent!
This was... an omnipotent wish-granting machine?!!
Not only could they gain powerful strength, but they could also get a wish granted for free?!!
Any wish was fine?!
For a moment, countless viewers across the Myriad Worlds became fervent and confused. Could it be that...
Kaname Madoka became a god because of this?!!
