Web Novel Differences

 * This volume heavily deviates from the web novel version of the story, with the author describing it as the "GOOD END" as opposed to the web novel's "BAD END".
 * The diverging point between the two versions was when Shun was forced to decide whether to let Shiraori destroy the System, killing half of humanity in the process, or sacrifice the gods instead: whereas he sides with humanity in the web novel, in the light novel he resolved to find a solution where no-one would have to die.
 * Whereas Ronandt aided Dustin by using his teleportation magic to gather allies in the web novel, leading to an even battle against Ariel's Taratects, in the light novel he sided with Shun upon seeing his resolve, resulting in the pope's forces being defeated.
 * Whereas Wrath died fighting Shun's party and Gülie's dragons in the web novel, in the light novel, without Shun to back them up, the dragons were defeated by him alongside Sophia.
 * Whereas D was neutral bystander in the web novel, in the light novel she intended to sacrifice half of humanity regardless of which side won, since sacrificing the gods still would not have been enough the heal the planet. Ms. Oka eventually learns of this through her Student Roster skill, leading to both sides uniting and confronting her.
 * Whereas Ariel fought Shun to prevent him from reaching the System core in web novel, in the light novel she let him pass, as he intended to use the core to teleport to D's location rather rather than locking Shiraori out.
 * Whereas Shiraori decisively defeated Gülie in the web novel, in the light novel she was merely "winning" their battle before they both agreed to a ceasefire upon realizing that D intended to sacrifice half of humanity regardless of who won.
