Soon, having realized there was nothing left to explore with the character of Meteora Estrelaich, the "creators" turned their attention to another character.
—The "Summoner" whose real name is unknown.
Unlike any other character in "Re: Holy Grail War", this character's true name remained shrouded in mystery even as the story progressed to its end. This not only gave people more room for imagination, but also attracted the attention of some people with ulterior motives.
It was only at this point that people gradually noticed the driving role played by this "Summoner," who rarely appeared in the story. It is no exaggeration to say that without this character, "Re: Holy Grail War" would have been a completely different work in terms of concept.
With this understanding, people became increasingly curious about the character and also tried to apply their own ideas and "settings" to this mysterious character.
For characters whose established perceptions have been formed, derivative works can only be created on the existing basis. Any excessive secondary settings will not gain much recognition—just as people think of magic rather than superpowers when they hear the word "magician".
However, this "mysterious character" is different.
Magic, summoning, all things in the universe... The abilities he displays in the story are diverse, yet even the most basic "ability" remains undetermined. Furthermore, even the "true name" that defines the core existence of "Heroic Spirits" is a complete mystery. Based on this, there is an unprecedented "blank background" that has never appeared in the entire industry.
The question is, is that really the case?
"He has a defined background, a story about him."
Knowing the dangers of creating something anew in this blank background, the mage tried his best to persuade Kikuchihara: "If the contents of that novel are made public, this phenomenon will be greatly alleviated."
"Time is running out, Mithorasan."
Avoiding the mage's gaze, Kikuchi Hara spoke curtly: "Even a fanatical audience couldn't accept this premise, even if the premise itself were true. And haven't you noticed... about a week ago, information about this work started disappearing from the internet. He's using this method to 'erasure' his past. In its place, a completely new character created by the 'creators' has been born."
The mage stared at the assistant who was concealing some crucial information: "If Rin (萌⑦ 児衫澪-罒久七^ 彡四) started at that time, then the Special Disaster Headquarters should have had enough time to stop it."
“I don’t deny it, but it goes against our ‘plan’.”
"Is this 'plan' really that important? Is it worth gambling the future of the world on?"
The mage, repeatedly deceived, felt bewildered, but her own position and the established rules dictated that she could not ignore the situation: "If the 'plan' fails, a 'character' will be born that is countless times more dangerous than Altair. At that time, will there really be something that can stop it?"
"This is a question that we humans need to think about."
As the soldiers beside him stopped the mage from approaching, Kikuchi Hara spoke with a resolute expression: "As a 'creation' created by humans, all you need to do is assist us."
"—!"
Behind the slow passage of time, the largest "stage" in history has been built.
The seventh day of the Holy Grail War, night.
Upon stepping into the city once again, I was unsurprisingly pulled into the reconstructed barrier.
The barrier, which had collapsed under the assassins' attack, not only remained intact but was even more solid than before. However, this was understandable considering the number of "participants" and the resources invested.
One side was accomplished by a single mage and the "Special Disaster Headquarters," while the other side was formed by a combination of Casters with immense influence and the power of the entire local area. It's easy to see which side is stronger.
The moment Lin Yi stepped into this barrier, he saw the last "enemy" before him.
Judging solely from the power level, the current Caster is much stronger than Altair in the past. If judged by class, it is probably very close to a true Grand Caster.
Unfortunately, this "stage" did not exist for her.
Is this your real purpose?
In the final moments of preparation before the "opening," the mage suddenly spoke: "Appearing in this world, driving the protagonists to kill each other in the name of the 'Holy Grail War' to gain recognition power, and finally using this enormous recognition power to summon... Is this your whole plan?"
Calling it a 'plan' is a bit of an exaggeration.
In the final moments before the "final act" began, Lin Yi didn't mind giving the "protagonist" who had persevered to the end a comforting "gift": "It's just a matter of mutual benefit. The people of this world became aware of the possibilities of 'recognition' through my existence, and then they noticed another 'protagonist' in my story, hoping to use me to obtain what they wanted. For certain reasons, I don't rule out such actions either, so it has become the result we have now."
Re:CREATORS: Chapter 520 Re:The Holy Grail War (23)
As the images on the "stage" were played in batches to various corners of the world, a massive amount of recognition power roared into the inner side of this "narrow" barrier.
Feeling the ever-expanding power within him, Lin Yi smiled and said, "Isn't it interesting?"
"...I don't see anything interesting in this story. There is only betrayal, hurt, death, and even impending destruction."
The mage gripped the spellbook in his arms: "You have given the 'creators' of this world a choice they simply cannot refuse."
"But at least they were given a choice. It was to ignore all unrealistic 'delusions,' destroy us 'created beings' who shouldn't exist in this world, and put everything back on track."
A small portion of the power of recognition flowing into the inner part of the barrier from all over the world was absorbed by the mages, and a portion was obtained by Lin Yi. However, most of it flowed into the sky above the barrier and directly into the white sphere that resembled a black hole.
Gazing at the familiar "white sphere of light" in the sky, Lin Yi stretched out his palm towards "it": "Or, by using us, these 'created beings' who should not exist, we can cross the future that even a long accumulation may not be able to reach—and go directly to the end."
Watching the white sphere of light form in the sky, the mage felt as if she had lost all her power; there was only one reason that kept her going.
"This is definitely not the end of the world!"
"thing?"
Looking at the mage in front of him in surprise, Lin Yi smiled and said, "You should call it 'the Supreme God'."

The white orb of light suspended above the barrier suddenly "split open," and from the jagged, menacing crack, crimson pupils stared directly at the figure looking up below.

Kikuchi Hara collapsed in her seat only after witnessing the "plot" unfold as planned.
"...We, the Japanese...human beings, have succeeded."
The biggest difference between humans and animals is that humans can create and use "tools". With the help of "tools", humans have easily accomplished various kinds of labor that carbon-based organisms could not do, and have forcibly crossed the limits of species to establish "civilization".
Throughout this process, the "tools" that humans are best at and most powerful with have never changed.
wisdom.
Because of wisdom, humans acquired "fire".
Because of wisdom, humans forged "iron".
Because of intelligence, humans created "gunpowder".
Because of wisdom, humans discovered "petroleum".
……
……
……
Now, facing this crisis that threatens the survival of the world, humanity has once again used its wisdom to discover a shortcut that can bypass countless stages of accumulation and development, leading directly to the future and even the "end point".
—The Main God Space.
A conceptual entity that exists only in fiction, yet possesses endless possibilities.
Human knowledge about this being is limited; the scarce information comes entirely from descriptions by the deceased "creator," yet even these fragmented descriptions are enough to stir the hearts of anyone who comes into contact with them.
In this technologically advanced world, there are many factors that limit humanity's continued progress: energy, crime, population, employment... covering every corner that humans can reach, and these are often not things that humans can easily solve on their own.
So, what if it were solved by a "non-human"?
A "central hub" that is absolutely just, without selfish desires, possesses endless power, and is completely obedient to humanity.
The Main God Space is a "central hub" that can help people overcome obstacles and directly reach the "end point".
Imagine that even the "protagonist," who was originally just an ordinary person in this work, was able to reach this point with the help of the God Space. If the development of the same thing were supported by the power of an entire world, what level would humanity reach?
When "characters" that should only exist in fantasy appeared in this world, people who noticed the existence of "recognition power" and "the main god space" began to have ambitions. This ambition drove them to act, plan, and then they got the results they have today.
[The 'Main God Space' is launching an attack on the 'target'—all is normal!]
The report couldn't hide its excitement, which was understandable, since this wasn't just about one or two people, but about the entire world—a great undertaking for the future of human civilization.
According to the "God-usurping Plan," with the combined power of all the world's recognition forces, the "God Space," summoned by the "Creator"—humanity—will act according to human will, because from this perspective, humans are equivalent to the protagonists in "novels" who are possessed by the God.
Therefore, the first thing the "God Space" summoned by "humans" needs to do is undoubtedly to kill the "protagonist".
Watching the battle that nearly destroyed most of the city in the "live broadcast," Kikuchihara, who had actually participated in the entire "God-usurping Plan," was filled with emotion.
"...I'm sorry, Mitourasan. Thank you for your sacrifices for humanity, but this is not what we truly need."
If the emergence of "acknowledgment power" and "created beings" is a question posed to the "creators" of this world: should everything be put back on track, or should a shortcut be taken to the future?
So this "plan" is their answer.
"The plan to usurp the god... is not to usurp any god in this world, nor any single powerful god, but this 'main god' that can lead everyone to the future."
----------segmentation----------
—This is a perfectly reasonable choice.
—It can be said that any intellectual individual is bound to have this kind of thought.
[High-density information source detected; attempting to capture it.]
With the infusion of massive amounts of recognition power, not only the size but also the effect was affected. The "Eye of Origin," magnified hundreds of times, suddenly appeared from the center of the white sphere of light. Just being looked at by it gave one a sense of obscurity and dimness—a premonition of demise.
—It dwells within its own consciousness, offering unsolicited help in an uncertain form.

—You, who are doing these things, are called "God".
"Factor imitation!"
—What exactly is it?
Re:CREATORS: Chapter 521 Re: The Holy Grail War (24)
The "ability.Yoerlinshanerlingqi,shi`⑻zeromeng" that was spreading towards the barrier ring was eventually neutralized.
Unsurprisingly, in order to make the "story" more interesting, the "creators" gave this newly appeared "character" the same abilities they had given Lin Yi, similar to those of Altair.
However, this time, the initiative could not prevent the same situation from repeating itself.
Almost immediately after noticing the ability to cancel each other out, both sides made the same move.
"The Myriad Phenomena, the Thirteenth Movement"
【The Myriad Phenomena, Thirteenth Movement】
—Abstract Origins
The same abilities did not cancel each other out; instead, they took effect simultaneously.
Naturally, if you choose to target the "other party" as the point of attack, then the same abilities will inevitably conflict and cancel each other out. But what if you choose to target yourself?
The thirteenth movement, "Summary of Origins," reverts the settings later added to the creation to their original state before the changes.
In an instant, all the abilities that did not belong to the individual "Lin Yi" were stripped away from this information body, which had been imposed upon it by countless "creators" of this world.
The "main god" above, who took the same action, was significantly more severely affected than Lin Yi. After all, with the gain of multiple recognition powers, the "abilities" imposed on it by the "creators" of this world were also more numerous, and the time required to exploit these abilities was also longer.
Taking advantage of this opening, Lin Yi launched an attack without hesitation.
Within his open right eye, the "Root" vortex spun wildly, and countless golden ripples almost completely obscured the sky within the barrier—and that wasn't all.
Complex projection.
Below, above, left, right, front, and back—centered on the point where the "main god" is located, a projection treasure "cube" with each side having a length of 1300m suddenly takes shape.
"—Fantasy Collapse."
The footage broadcast to the entire world was instantly engulfed by endless white light, with only the deafening roar continuing...
After a long while, some movement finally came from beneath the suffocating magical mist.
[...Secondary search failed. The current form was detected as unsuitable for high-intensity combat. A more efficient combat form will be selected.]
The database is incomplete and lacks sufficient information.
[Detect the best nearby object, object confirmed]
[Simulation complete.]
The howling wind swept away the pervasive magical smoke, and when Lin Yi could see the location of the "main god" again, he was still taken aback, even though he was prepared.
"……I?"
What appeared before him was no longer the white orb of light with the "Eye of Origin" that had appeared a moment before, but another "Lin Yi" that was exactly the same.
Facing himself, Lin Yi suddenly raised his palm, reacting immediately as the deep red particles condensed in his palm.
