"This is bad, Maya!! They're already reaching toward Kamisato-kun's fate!! This will never work without World Rejecter as the gate. They're just letting their emotions get the better of them and they might as well be attempting heart surgery on him with a rusty scalpel! We can't let them do this!!!!!!"
"!?"
But their impatience did not matter.
The cart driving out ahead contained Luca, a complex tangle of Voodoo and piracy, as well as Fran, who had shed her shell as a UFO girl and returned as an unlucky star expert. They had both entered a unique mental state using a special focusing method much like those used by stage actors to get into character.
Their lips were moving. They sent a vibration into the modified hexagram they had carved into the planet.
"The peace of the six points is obtained through the four stages created by combining the great triangle of fire with the great triangle of water. But to achieve the result first and foremost, we seek the secrets of the simplified six points drawn from straight lines. We desire to summon the sun, but cast aside Apollo and retrieve Horus. Know that the world's true image is found in the lost Library of Alexandria!!"
Something changed.
The foundation of the gray steel and concrete city was pulled out.
"Know that Horus is not a mere descendent of dead gods, but the foundation of the forces which shall cleanse the world of the accumulated stains of the cross. Correspondence, correspondence, correspondence. Shake the star which holds the opposing peaks of Da'at and Yesod."
It was like the air had solidified with human killer intent. The extreme mental state much like "getting into character" ruled the dark container yard.
It was all remade into a tranquil sacred ground.
"Distort."
One of the two voices sometimes passed the other, sometimes was passed by the other, and sometimes coincided perfectly with the other.
It was like two different equilateral triangles lining up and moving apart to create a different shape and provide different meaning from moment to moment. The combination of the limited resources called in endless possibility.
"The separate image of the Four Worlds from which power is drawn becomes a different Four Worlds like the moon's reflection in a lake."
Kamijou began to wonder if he should be here.
He had not washed his body, his face, or even his hands. He wondered if he should be standing in this sacrosanct place while so filthy.
"The sun of Horus which shall cleanse the world shall be known by the divine name of Kamisato Kakeru!!"
All the while, wedges were driven into the world.
A supposedly lost name was once more carved powerfully into it.
"Legba Atibon is a frightening being who can surpass even time as the gate to manage all ceremonies. But just as the Qliphoth becomes a powerful compass that points to the truth of the world when used with truly accurate discernment, the curse of the second Aeon can be used as a powerful prism to divide the forces. This shall distort the line to the planet which descends toward the six-pointed star and thus shall substitute the symbols."
There was no obvious light or sound.
But that was only because Kamijou could not see it. Just like the boy on the ground could not perceive the magic circle drawn across the city with gunpowder.
"Bind and strengthen the planetary symbol with the star of power carved into the earth."
Something was changing.
No, it was being intentionally changed by human hands.
Even so, the girls' power must not have been enough because they revealed the existence of a powerful trick up their sleeve.
"The symbol's name is A.A.A."
Finally, even an amateur like Kamijou could detect the change.
One of the metal containers forming a great pyramid began to glow despite its component materials and how thick it was. It was like the north star that guided sailors.
"Just like the endless reflection of opposing mirrors, they overlap like the rings of a powerful tree and provide the power to gaze into the abyss. As the identical symbols approach, have them resonate, just as the slightest breeze can occasionally break a stone bridge and send it plunging into the sea."
What did it look like from above?
It may have been like being trapped in a harmful hallucination after reaching the end of an endless task, such as peering to the very back of the image in opposing mirrors or continually opening a Russian nesting doll until an electron microscope was needed
Or perhaps it was like peering into the depths beyond the deepest depths.
And after they broke through that thick wall, would they find that other boy they needed to drag back up?
"Edward Alexander, aka Crowley, says a great demon never before seen and not mentioned in any holy text can be summoned through a combination of the existing methods. So he said to learn that method and to break through the common view of the world with something that can be found anywhere!!"
A name was spoken.
It was the name of someone who had shaken the world to the point that it was thought he would destroy it.
"Tonight, we shall destroy one of the impossibilities facing the world! Summon the divine name of Kamisato Kakeru with physical form and fix him to Olam Asiyah, the surface of the Four Worlds!!!!!!"
