The Latest Game Is Too Amazing
Lesson 63: Secrets
Thanks to the activism of the Vuivres, the murder charge was cleared and I was released safely. I'm glad you let me go, and I'm sure I can't say I appreciate the Vuivres, but I'm not happy with the circumstances.
"I can't believe the demon set me in a trap."
Until now, demons have often committed aggression against countries and humans. But this time the intention is different.
"Obviously, I'm targeting the Lord personally. Probably saw it as dangerous to deal with the Lord, and the aim was to isolate him by planting suspicion of the Lord in humans. In the worst case scenario, your Lord may have been executed. Let's just say it's effective enough, even if it's a mean hand."
The demons seem to think it's too blind. There were enough verses in mind, but it seems to be a nasty situation.
"Vuivre, I could have been under house arrest in my room the whole time with my wet clothes on without Mr. Rafael. Thank you so much, both of you."
I have a school and I can't stay in this world forever. Yeah, I relieved myself that I was glad I solved it early.
"It would have been dangerous without Oliver and them. At the end of the day, I felt like they were taking something delicious."
The look on Vuivre's face is not very convincing.
They were the ones who solved the case and cornered Slime, but what a Mr. Oliver it was that caught Slime infiltrating the Wang capital. Without his cooperation, Slime would have escaped, and he could still have been under house arrest for a long time without clearing the charges.
I'd like to thank you honestly, but at the same time, the problem is that my doubts about him have surfaced again.
"I wonder what Mr. Oliver was thinking and monitoring Vuivre?
"I honestly don't know. As it turned out, I proved your Lord's innocence and showed him. Nevertheless, it is premature to determine that this is not harmful. Maybe he wasn't just spying on the concubines, he was spying on the caios the whole time."
"About me?
I don't think so. Ask Vuivre back. Her expression is extremely serious.
"I can't be sure. But I can't say for sure that the only gaze I felt these days was the slime. Instead, I have been watching the Lord, and I believe that he has extended his watching hand to the concubine in deep relationship."
I looked around unexpectedly because I was scared that you were still watching me. But there's only me and Vuivre in this room. There was no way I could tell anyone else such an important thing.
Even though Mr. Oliver was previously a person in this world and should have no knowledge of the game, he used the system of "career changes" in "AnotherWorld" to "transfer" to Monk. I have suspected that maybe Mr. Oliver is a person in the real world.
I was eventually deciding from Mr. Oliver's story that I had just "transferred" by accident, but I haven't grasped any evidence as to whether that's true or not. It can also be assumed that you lied to the fake so that they wouldn't notice the truth.
"After all, is Mr. Oliver a real world person?
When the Union of the Communes was being attacked by vampires in this world, there was an event called "Invasion of the Evil Gods" in the Union of the Communes in the game AnotherWorld, which was very similar to this world. Given the similarities between too many similar events and geographical names and magic, it is my opinion that the operation of the game is in some way related to this world.
But if Mr. Oliver was involved in the operation, he would be able to take advantage of his position as manager of the game and take different ways than the average player.
When playing a game called 'AnotherWorld', players will need an account. If Mr. Oliver strips me of my account, I won't be able to come to this world.
Account stripping is the heaviest form of punishment among players for violations. So violations are also subject to malicious things such as committing misconduct in the game, which requires a good reason.
However, it is possible to give as much as you want in the position of administrator.
If Mr. Oliver is up to something in this world, if he's going to get rid of me, if he takes these hard means, it's over.
However, the fact that it is kept under surveillance without eliminating it does not fall to me.
Then I wondered why Mr. Oliver was watching, and when he was bothering his head, Vuivre pinched his mouth with a decent face.
"No, Lord, you're mistaken."
"What?"
"He's not from this world in the first place."
I asked Vuivre back in a pompous manner.
"How do you know that?
"Lord, don't you forget about the concubine's nose? It doesn't matter how unwieldy your nose is, you can tell if you're human or not, if you're a living body. If you're human beings in the Lord's world, you'd use your first body, not your biological body? But it doesn't smell like the first body from his body. You're not a real human being."
Vuivre explained it to me in a slightly confused tone.
If you're here in this world by the same means as I am, chances are you're using a character.
But according to Vuivre's nose, Mr. Oliver's body is not a character. In particular, Mr. Oliver has just the power to fight demons and even "change careers". If you had come to this world with a living body by a different means than me, there is no way that the human beings of the other world could have fought demons in life and demonstrated superhuman power.
If you're not a character, it's natural to assume that Mr. Oliver is a person in this world.
"Then you think I'm a dangerous person and you're watching me? Like the nobility of the kingdom of Castal."
Though it is out-of-heart to think of the person as dangerous, when I see that Vuivre doesn't deny it either, I wonder if that assessment is correct.
"Not necessarily. I can't say for sure that I may be a human being in this world but it has nothing to do with its operation. I may have been indirectly instructed. Perhaps they were watching the tissues, and when they captured the slime, they were with Oliver in similar clothes."
"Clothes similar to Mr. Oliver's? Maybe the people from the church. So you're saying, Mr. Oliver, that you're under orders from the church to spy on me, not your personal will?
Due to that guy's character, I'd rather be tight considering he's being ordered by the church to monitor him. But why did the church order Mr. Oliver to keep an eye on me?
If it had anything to do with it, I had fought Alexia, whom the Church had certified to be the Virgin, and I was about to lose my authority because I had won. But it is also inconvenient for the Weixel Empire and the Union of the Communes, and it should be covered up with a warrant.
If that's why the Church was watching me not to divulge secrets, then I have no intention of saying that, and there are a lot of people in the Commonwealth and the Vixel Empire who know about this. It's no reason for the Church to dare spy on me.
"Either way, I think he came into contact with the Lord for some purpose. Be careful at best."
If there is any intention and contact with me, who is a different world from them, then I need to explore what the Church intends.
A new mystery arises when I say that there are mysteries everywhere against the existence that flew me into this world. It's just a hassle and not a glimmer.
That's how we were doing the sorting of information we had with each other, and I heard a knock.
We silence ourselves for a moment and turn our gaze to the door.
"Lord Kaios, are you there?
The Lord of the Voice was Mr. Oliver. Someone in the whirlpool of suspicion came directly to me.
"Go ahead."
I got lost, but I couldn't say no, so I allowed Mr. Oliver in. Oliver, who came into the room, came in with a slightly worse looking face.
You still don't get to see Mr. Oliver properly anymore. Just like me, Vuivre, nature and his gaze get tough.
Mr. Oliver smiled bitterly at Vuivre for his reluctant look.
"No, you hated me a lot."
"You thought you'd be welcome?
Mr. Oliver's face clouds with Veevre's irony.
"No, if elementary school students were in the same position, they would have been disgusted even if they weren't hostile to each other."
I can't say either because Mr. Oliver's flag color is still unclear when he says he's an enemy or an ally. I still don't feel bad about the person I've been watching.
As much as Mr. Oliver seemed sorry and knew his character in this way, his bad feelings were barely contained, but without them he would probably have refused to enter the room either.
"So what can I do for you?
"I have something to tell Lord Kaios. Could you come with me?
"Can't we talk here?
"Yeah, I don't want others to know about this if possible, especially in the heavy towns of every country. Of course, you two can stay together."
What we have to keep a secret from the Roslines, too? I can't believe the country doesn't even want to know. It's finally starting to seem like a suspicious secret society.
But this is Mr. Oliver, too, but no, I want to know what the Church was thinking and watching. That is why I decided to accept Mr Oliver's proposal.
The place Mr. Oliver took me to was a building adjacent to the cathedral of the Kingdom of Castal, arguably their main mountain.
"What the hell is this place?
I can see that it is a place where there is probably someone of high stature in a vibrant building with no royal palace and no pale color. There was anticipation that he was probably the power of the Church.
"This is the palace where the Pope, the highest priest of the Orthodox Church, will live. There will be no interference from the Kingdom of Kastal here."
From a palace as luxurious as the royal palace, I guess the power and financial power of the Church is on the same level as that of the king.
Mr. Oliver leads me into a private room. There is no one in the private room.
"Mr. Caios, I would like you to meet with the Pope from now on. The Pope will not be long to see you. If you're here, you won't have to tell a secret story to anyone."
I had expected to meet with powerful people in the Church because they brought me to this place, but I didn't expect to meet suddenly with the Supreme Power.
"That's all that matters. to such an extent that it should not be known to the public"
Don't be nervous.
"I wonder, Lord Kaios. Isn't the atmosphere different from that of Clermont's cathedral?
Mr. Oliver changes the subject to relieve the mood.
I can see the cathedral through the window. There is no chance of seeing the cathedral from the adjacent palace. The palace is guarded by a royal court. Unlike the cathedral, which probably has followers heading for worship, there is no such thing as an atmosphere where ordinary people can easily enter.
When I was in the Kingdom of Kastal, I didn't even use it for my cathedral, so I never took Maukt's cathedral seriously. I got the feeling that I said the decorations were more luxurious, whether it was a building of historical value as well as the cathedral that was in Clermont. It's just the exterior, so what's going on inside the cathedral? Since it is the main mountain of the church, is it true that the wealth gathered there is also in the wrong digits?
It's just not a good idea if you give some candid thoughts to church officials. I stayed cloudy with the feeling that it was beautiful and tasteless and dry. You guessed my vibe like that, Mr. Oliver. I just gave it back small to you to say I'm sorry.
Then an old man entered the room. Perhaps this man is the Pope, the supreme power of the Church.
Mr. Oliver lowers his head, and so do I.
"Okay, face up."
It took the form of a serious look up at the Pope's venerable face, but the Pope must have felt the severity with which his expression was tight and difficult to approach.
The Pope stared at me without saying anything.
"This is the first time I've seen you in person."
Without precedence, the Pope speaks pale.
"As you've already guessed, we've been watching you for a long time while you've been in Maukt."
The Pope admitted that he had been watching clearly. But he doesn't look bad. Only Mr. Oliver who was present would be guilty.
In a way, the Pope's thoroughness makes me admire more than anger. I knew there were no shards of favor at first, but I didn't think it would be this far.
"Why were you spying on me?"
"Because I was wary that you might be dangerous. A mysterious magician who appeared conveniently at the same time as the devils' anomalies occurred. Besides, anyone who seems to be gaining credibility from national leaders will be wary. Don't you remember yourself?"
I silenced myself to the Pope's point.
"But we were most afraid because we thought you might be trying to contradict us. Work with the demons."
"With demons? It's impossible."
"We suspected it might be a disguise."
"The demons were trying to rub their sins against me. So the premise collapsed and the church became aware that they were watching, so they revealed who they were?"
"A slime that turns into a human being. Humanity did not know this existed. I mean, it was just a coincidence that I could prove your innocence. Without my daughters there. It would not have been strange to be tried for wrongdoing if it had stayed that way. Then it can't be a disguise to indirectly prove that you're not connected to the demon. We decided there was no connection between you and the demon in this matter."
That's ironic, I thought.
The demon tried to make up that he was a murderer because he was blind to me, but that led to the result that he went behind his back and made me trust the church that he suspected me of.
"I see why. By the way, what the hell is contraindication?
"It only takes a little longer to talk. This is an abominable stain for the Church and, no, for humanity. Even the church knows only a small part of it. Don't talk too much."
The pope took a breath in. Unlike before, the Pope's expression was stiff, which also seemed like a confession of penance.
"The story dates back to the time of mythology, when there was an evil god. When evil gods and demons fought back against evil gods, our humanity, and coalitions of other races, fleeing to the North, the gods and coalitions fled to the North to end the war"
When the showdown to seal the evil gods?
"The march to the northern earth was harsh. The evil gods and demons who fled into the northern lands are no longer attacked there. After intense resistance from the evil gods and demons, the damage inflicted on the demons was immense, but more than that, the damage inflicted by the Allied forces became frightening. Originally, the Allied forces were exhausted in a series of wars between the evil gods and the demons. Enemy land spared supplies, and still managed to drive the demons to the north. If there had been a lot of damage on the road, it wouldn't have been surprising if the coalition had collapsed."
Vuivre has a distant eye somewhere. Does it recall the time in the story of the Pope?
"Until then, the battle had been fought unilaterally by evil gods and demons against the lands ruled by humans and other races. With the gods standing up and humans and other races united against evil gods and demons, we finally got a chance to hunt down evil gods and demons and fight back. If we stop the expedition here, evil gods and demons must once again rekindle their forces, and once again humanity must be frightened by aggression. So I really had to make the expedition a success. Even if you do something that touches a contraindication that would violate humanity."
It's not like nervousness. It's wrapped in strained air. Vuivre's mood was dropping as he looked at it. How offensive was it at the time?
"You know the undead, right? That is supposed to be a demon killed by a demon, that a soul with strong resentment resides in a body against the management of nature, and that it loses its lifetime memory and is attacked by humans who are living beings. I haven't been told why that would happen."
"Is that what is supposed to happen among humans? If you hear anything you don't know about the time, you'll be fooled. As you can see from his mouth, the Church will know the truth."
Vuivre's eyes are cold.
"How does the undead relate to previous stories? What do you mean, fooled by that?
It will mean that you know the secrets from which the undead arises from the flow of the story. Besides, the kind of behavior that touches contraindications that go against humanity? Did a demon do something, not a demon do it?
The Pope answered with a voice that pushed his emotions and killed him.
"The undead was not created by the evil gods. It is a demon created by us humans using certain secrets. As a force to fight demons."
I turn my own countrymen into demons. That is definitely contraindicated. No matter how much of a situation you say you have to succeed in your expedition in a war of evil gods and demons, it just seems like a terrible, nasty act for the humanitarians who threw ethics aside.
"But if you're saying the undead are demons created by humans, why attack humans? This isn't about fighting demons. You've only increased your enemies."
If man created the undead, why is the undead becoming harmful to man? I didn't understand that.
"I didn't mean to let the undead attack humans. The goal was to create an immortal army that would rise even if killed by demons. But I shouldn't have been the one who came up with this. Unlike God and dragons, man does not have the art of recognizing his soul. I touched contraindications without understanding my soul."
I remember a certain ghost in the Pope's story.
When I was in the Kingdom of Castall before, I met the ghost of a girl named Elizabeth. She was confined to the Mansion all the time by herself because of the junction placed in the Mansion.
It was the way Elizabeth's father, the alchemist, knitted her to keep her in the world as a ghost, with a heart she didn't want to lose her sick daughter. But not everything went the way he wanted.
Elizabeth was born and grew during the day and was imprisoned in a lifeless hell of old decay. Her father tried to solve the problem, but it was powerless, and her life expectancy ran out.
This is also the tragedy that Elizabeth's father, a human being, suffered because he touched his soul with incomplete knowledge.
"My soul remained poorly researched, and I still used secrets. It's like going to a destination with your eyes closed, so to speak. You can't succeed without knowledge. As a result, it failed, and what was killed by demons became an undead that should be said to be impossible, and attacked without the sight of the enemy allies. Not only the Allied forces, but the demons are in disarray. We were able to drive demons into the northern earth and seal the evil gods, but we were unable to completely expel the demons, and the coalition had no choice but to pull them up from the northern land. Ever since then no demons have attacked me. The demons were led by evil gods and were thought to have vanished naturally as long as there was no evil god at the centre"
It's not something we would have accumulated if all of a sudden our comrades we had been fighting together were turned into undead.
Even if research is sufficient, it is insane to touch such contraindications. Were they so driven at the time that they had to be driven so mad?
"I tell you not to misunderstand in the honor of the brave men who fought with their concubines. Not all humans were involved in the matter. It's a human outburst."
"Did Vuivre know?"
Vuivre nodded.
"Of course, I was there. At first I didn't know what was going on. The concubines on the front line were not informed of anything. As much as I thought the Evil God might have done something. All of a sudden, an ally who lost his life starts to rise. It's a crucible. Fighting in the North took place day after day, but a certain god went to seal the evil god, and if it didn't succeed, it could have wiped out the army."
Vuivre's anger will not subside. Instead, my face gets more and more distorted with anger as I move on to the conversation. Are you saying there is still something there?
"Being a human place was under investigation during the showdown. Some human powers have failed to do more research to reduce demonic damage. but the truth was different. It wasn't until a few months after the showdown that I found out. The true purpose of foreign law is to obtain the means of immortality. I mean, undead was only part of the study. When I first heard about it, I doubted my ears. I wonder if we can ruthlessly risk the lives of our compatriots so far for our own greed. I felt that the pride we had fought together would be tainted."
I use my colleagues, who have served their purpose together, as material for my experiments. It would have seemed like a terrible betrayal from the Vuivres.
"When the truth was discovered, human beings who did not know the truth, not just other races, were also outraged. Because only a very small number of people were involved in the law. They must have all been executed."
The Pope went on to say words to the smudging Veuvres.
"The human leaders who knew the truth set up an organization to deter the country from repeating such tragedies again. That is our Orthodox Church. Although ostensibly nothing more than the faithful organization of the gods who created this world and fought with the Evil God, the original aim is to cover up the traces of secret art from history. It was about keeping people out of contraindications and preventing abuse. Very few people inside the Church know about this because of the secret inside. All the countries that existed at the time are doomed, and only our church will know this secret."
Was the Church also an organization to prevent the abuse of secret art? I guess it's because there are branches in every country, like the Adventurer's Guild, that make surveillance glare in every region.
I was convinced and questioned the reason for the establishment.
"Wait a minute. So you're saying that I was being watched because I could have used that secret technique? I didn't do anything so noisy as to make someone undead, did I?
The Church monitors people approaching its outrageous secrets. Then you would have been watching me because you suspected I was trying to abuse that secret technique.
But it's impossible for me to abuse that secret technique. The secret art itself had just been heard and didn't even know it existed. It is possible that the Church has not noticed that, but it is an organization that has been secretly leaping away from contraindications for a long time. I can also assume you had enough grounds to just spy on me.
"No, you're not. Apparently you didn't know it was a secret, but you already used it."
Already using secrets? The word usage caught my eye, although I can't think of any events related to the undead.
The Pope taught me to think about it because it didn't feel right.
"God's protection. This is what you call a" career change. "
"'Transfer'?
An unexpected answer raised my voice. "Transfer" is the same secret as the undead? If you're going to transform into some kind of demon, along with a phenomenon that just changes your profession anyway? Not very much but not linked to a bad image like secret surgery.
"Secrets are not a substitute for 'If a demon kills you, you'll be reborn into the undead'. Secret art is' creating new reason '. In other words," If the demon kills you, you'll be reborn as an undead. "
So I finally remembered what I said to Vuivre when I showed him the 'transfer'.
According to Vuivre, "Transfer" uses unknown powers to rewrite the logic of this world. Indeed, at that time, Vuivre said that there were examples in the past where he had also created new reason. I don't want to talk about it because the means are extrajudicial. Was that what this was about?
But suppose that's true.
"You can abuse that all you want............!
Too versatile. Wouldn't this make any wish come true?
"It's not easy to create any reason. When secrets were created, the undead were born because they failed. Above all, we're going to need the price that comes with dealing with secrets. It's like you're gonna need mana to handle magic."
"The price?"
"That's a soul."
The Pope replied with a serious look.
"The soul is also a mass of power. By gathering souls and harnessing their power, they can use secret techniques. The greater the new reason, the greater the price. I mean, that's all we have to gather our souls for."
"You need to take your soul away from people in order to use secrets. So you're saying you take people's lives?
"You can do that, too. When a man dies, his soul leaves the flesh. The soul away from the flesh is said to go to the post-mortem world. But the soul away from the flesh stays in this world for just a few moments after death. The soul of that state can be gathered and used for secret art. They used the souls of those who lost their lives when the secret was first used and until then, when the demons were damaged. Seems like you could have gathered as many souls as you wanted, even if you didn't kill people to take your soul on purpose."
Because it's a cursey secret that goes on until today, the price is quite significant. It was attacked by demons at the time, so its victims would rise to a considerable number. I don't even want to think about the number of souls used in that secret technique.
"The existence of a secret technique off the humanitarian track has been kept secret. But now there are those who are planning to use secret art."
If a game system called 'Transfer' was reproduced in this world by secret art, you would know that secret art exists.
And it is a being that knows both the real world and this world.
"There are many things that have enlivened and damaged demonic activity in recent years, but the number of undead that are supposed to be killed and shown up by demons is lower than expected. The number of undead that should occur due to vampire damage, especially in the Union of the Communes, is unnaturally too small"
"The undead need a soul. If the body of a human being killed by a demon does not contain a soul and does not become undead, the question arises as to where that soul has gone. Doesn't that mean the soul could be used for secrets?
"Is that possible that a series of disturbances of demons are being set up by demons to use secret art?
"It's possible."
There are many puzzling things about demonic behavior here these days. Doubts also arose when I spoke previously in the Commune with Mr Rafael and Rosline. The demons' invasion of human territory was sporadic. If we were truly willing to destroy humans, it would surely have been better to concentrate the forces that had struck all over the place on destroying one nation.
Perhaps the purpose of the demons is not to attack and destroy humans, but to attack humans for another purpose. If what the Church is saying is true, the demons are not really attacking, they are prioritizing the cleansing of human souls, and they may be adjusting the amount of souls they collect.
"Wait a minute. The souls of the victims in the Union of the Communes are being used for secret operations, right? It would be strange to assume that secret art was used for a 'career change'. 'Cause even before the vampire incident, I'm making a' career change 'in the Viaxel Empire. You can't' change jobs' before the secret tricks are done."
'Transfer' has taken place twice in this world. He joined Alexia and Irene before the Union of the Communes in a 'career change' in the Weixel Empire.
It's almost the same time that vampires were lurking in the Union of Communes and I was operating in the Vixel Empire.
If the aim is to attack the Union of the Communes, gather souls and use secrets to create a new rationale called 'transfer', then the aim is achieved, at least when we 'transfer' in the Vixel Empire. We need very little reason to remain in the Union of the Communes.
Then Mr. Oliver, who didn't say anything until now, opened his mouth.
"Mr. Kaios, 'Transfer' has been confirmed a long time ago. That was roughly a year ago. As I've told you before, it was a coincidence that the elementary student 'changed careers'. But the scene was matched. The sight of 'Transfer' is too divine and takes place in a place called the Church, so it is not surprising that if you see something you know nothing about, you mistakenly see it as' God's protection '. Because the elementary school students thought so at first. Without you, Kobayashi wouldn't have known the truth."
Was what Mr. Oliver was saying true? But if a 'transfer' had been made a year ago, the story would have changed.
"So vampires were gathering their souls in the Commune trying to create a new reason different from 'Transfer'?
"You will. After the vampires attacked the Commune, they turned over a giant golem, and there is still no sign of stopping invading human territory. Perhaps the demons have not yet completed their secret art. The true purpose of demons attacking humans is the collection of souls to perform secret operations. You must be craving the sacrifice of secret art."
Then the demons' actions will not end until the secret art is complete. You need to turn down the original to stop it.
"I don't know what reason demons are trying to create. Probably not a lot. The demons are attacking humans and are looking to use secrets. This must be stopped at all costs."
The Pope lowers his head when he changes and looks at our faces.
"It was no other one who called them to this occasion and revealed their secrets. Heroes of the world. And an ancient dragon. I want you to help our church. I want you to help stop the demon's ambition to create new reason."
