I was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but that World is at Peace (WN)-Chapter 2175: Intermission: The (Late) Digital Monster

How should one describe its existence? A bug in cyberspace, a malicious lingering thought…… One thing is certain: its presence could be considered a type of irregularity.

Originally, it was a feeble, minuscule entity, lacking even thought or will. However, at some point, an immense power unexpectedly flowed into the space where it drifted.

Like a God, this unfathomable force created a world out of nothing…… a space that deviated from its original phase, a kind of parallel world.

What proved fortunate for it was the sheer overwhelming nature of that power…… it was too immense, too vast to be precise. Even after forming a world, an excess of power still remained in the space. By absorbing the remnants of this surplus, it rapidly evolved into a being with both will and strength.

(Ahh, I see, I was chosen. Yes, to erase those foolish humans with my own hands…… Yes, I have ascended to become the God of the digital realm!)

Originally a mere fragment of malicious data, it transformed under an absurdly immense power, becoming a malevolent entity within cyberspace.

Its power in the digital world was immense. And in today's world, controlling cyberspace was practically equivalent to ruling the entire world.

It understood that the place it inhabited was akin to a parallel world, but that was a trivial matter. If this was the world it now resided in, then it would simply follow its own malevolence and plunge it into chaos……

The digital monster prepared to move and bring destruction upon the world…… when suddenly, it sensed an unusual access within the cyber realm. A connection from nowhere within this world, yet undeniably linked to it. As it traced this connection, it saw a pair of individuals…… a man and a woman.

The source of this c𝓸ntent is frёeweɓηovel.coɱ.

(What is this? Are they accessing my domain from another world? Foolish…… To extend a hand toward the God of this digital realm…… Fine, as the first step in erasing this world, I shall begin by eliminating you. If you can access this space, then I can interfere from here as well…… Fufufu, now, let me invite you to he——–?!)

As the digital monster reached out to the beings from another world, it suddenly froze.

It was as if a single drop of water had fallen into a completely silent space.

Drawn by an unknown force, it turned around———— and there stood "something whose nature was unknown".

Long hair shifting through multiple hues, a futuristic outfit adorned with cybernetic embellishments, red eyes reminiscent of a camera lens…… Though its form resembled that of a human, its presence was far too alien. If one were to describe it, it felt akin to a robot imitating the shape of a human woman.

The enigmatic entity spoke, yet the digital monster could not comprehend the words. No, it could hear them, but it could not recognize them as language.

(What is this thing……? No…… It’s too different…… The power it holds…… its very existence……)

Even without understanding the words, it immediately recognized the being before it as something possessing unfathomable strength. Though it was merely a collection of malignant data, it instinctively trembled and dropped to its knees, without even realizing that what it felt was fear…… Ṝ𝘢ΝƟʙËṥ

『……Adjusting language to a level that an inferior existence can comprehend…… <Not that it actually matters, but a pathetic scrap of digital garbage like you trying to meddle with Miyama Kaito-sama? Die!> ……Message transmission, complete. Conducting erasure.』

After speaking in words that could now be understood, the being lightly raised a hand.

That was all it took, before the digital monster, an entity with enough power to destroy the world, vanished without leaving behind even a fragment of data.

Having erased the digital monster, the being shifted its gaze…… towards Kaito and Aoi, who were playing their online game.

『……Emotion output…… <Since my turn comes after Bipolar God, I can’t meet him yet. I'm so envious of Canalis.> ……Personal impression output…… <But since you accessed a cyberspace, I got to see Miyama Kaito-sama’s face, so I’m super happy!> ……Confirming future plans…… <This isn’t Shallow Vernal's world, so it should be fine if I stay and admire Miyama Kaito-sama for a while. Ehehe, lucky me.> ……Finalizing future actions…… Continuing to observe Miyama Kaito-sama.』

After speaking in a strange manner, both mechanical and emotional, the being…… the one known as "Virtual God" began swaying from side to side, watching Kaito with amusement.
