Godhorn Tech:Volume1 Preface
Color Illustration 1[edit]
Miyabi Blackgarden
A perfectly ordinary boy from the first village. In a twist of fate, inherited the Lucifer Horn Bomber and got caught up in some trouble.
Godhorn Tech
Bomber – Lucifer Horn
With a great roar, something massive cut by overhead.
Miyabi had no idea what this meant.
A moment later, all the trees, branches, and leaves in the forest were subjected to a powerful blast of wind. Helen predicted the wind’s direction and pressed her back against a tree and Alicia staggered while holding her skirt down with both hands.
That thing was…not alive.
It had to be several dozen meters long and it resembled a colossal bird or dragon with enormous wings, but the collection of straight and curved lines had the glint of metal and glass not found in nature and something about its design looked artificial. Something built by human hands had instantly stolen the leading role from the natural scenery.
It may have been something like a hanger made from bat wings.
But it was unbelievably large and sinister.

Terminology[edit]
Godhorn Tech
Colossal sorcery weapons built around a Wicked God’s horn. Construction costs are massive, but their sturdiness makes maintenance and operation a breeze.
It is unclear if even Godhorn Tech could achieve victory against a true Wicked God. Godhorn Tech is a collection of human technology with just the horn built in, while the monster is a Wicked God from head to tail.
Wicked God
This world contains life forms known as Wicked Gods that human technology and civilization are unable to oppose. They can possess any number of shapes and natures, including dragons, krakens, and phoenixes, but they all have one point in common: a giant horn on their forehead.
It is theorized nonhumans and monsters become Wicked Gods when they fall into the cracks in the world and resist the miasma long enough to crawl back out again, but this has never been proven. Academics are also split on the etymology of the name. Some say it simply refers to their wicked nature, but others say it refers to them being a god of the wicked because they are too kind to turn down anyone’s request, no matter how wicked it might be.
The 11th
An assumed 11th Godhorn Tech user unknown to the world. Thought to cause mass destruction using sorcery bombs. However, it is also possible that one of the known 10 are calling themselves the 11th.
Their motive is unknown and their next target is always unpredictable. The governments are covering up their presence to prevent unrest among the people, but the information has begun to leak out and the world’s tension is approaching the limit, like a glass of water with surface tension about to break.
Sorcery Bomb
Weapon of mass destruction used by the 11th Godhorn Tech user. The massive power found inside the Wicked God horn is used to create a special bomb indistinguishable from a tree, a rock, etc. The blast is powerful enough to destroy an entire city.
As detonation approaches, a special symbol appears on the sorcery bomb’s surface, and some of the Godhorn Tech users can sense its presence. Can only be detonated via timer, so it can be disarmed if discovered and destroyed before detonation. External impacts present no risk of triggering the explosion early.
