152 - - 40th Episode of Thought

We were able to successfully take revenge on the Dwarf species Nano.

We were able to smoothly complete our revenge against Nano thanks to the cooperation of everyone in "The Abyss" and the Dwarf Kingdom. The Dwarf King ordered us to exterminate the people during the capture, and we also received various other forms of cooperation.

I am grateful to Princess Lilith of the Kingdom of Humans for suggesting a meeting with the Dwarf King.

In addition to being able to fulfill my revenge, it was also a great harvest that I was able to fight an enemy who seemed to be "Master".

If there is a problem -.

"There was a lot to gain, but there were more things to investigate and more mysteries to solve. ......

What is "C"?

What are "C's" slaves and dependents?

Is the being that seems to be "Master" also searching for the existence of "C"?

Also, given Hisomi's "lack of hands," are they forming an organization, or some equivalent form of group?

-There are really more things to think about and more mysteries to solve.

In the lowest level office of "The Abyss," I sat at my desk and let out my thoughts on this one incident.

Mei, Aoyuki, and Ellie were all in front of me.

Each of them talked about the incident.

I'm sorry, I wish I could have resurrected the dusty Hisomi (Master) with the Ultimate Class, the magic of resurrection from the dead, but it was difficult to do so once she was that much dust. I couldn't. ......"

Nyah."

I asked Nano, the man who captured him, about HISOMI again, but he said he didn't know much about it because he only brought the book to the mansion periodically after he met Nano for the first time at the bar and bought the "Forbidden Sword Binding Book". Since Ellie also confirmed his memory, we believe that his testimony is correct."

Ellie is dejected, while Aoyuki and Mei reply in their usual tones.

I turned to the front and addressed everyone.

Ellie, don't worry about it. If the bodies turn to dust, there's nothing we can do. The conditions for resuscitating the dead are very strict. Aoyuki, thank you for keeping an eye on the surroundings. I heard that there was no one other than Hisomi who was watching, no one who looked like a "master. Thank you, Mei, for asking Nano for information about Hissomi.

Light God ......!　It's a waste of ...... your words are a waste of time!"

Uny~"

No need to thank me. It's all for Mr. Wright.

All three show three different reactions.

I nodded to them with a smile.

We were able to build a strong relationship with the Dwarf Kingdom because of this incident, and we also found many valuable materials and items in the "ruins of a large-scale past civilization" that we dived into.

Of course, all they want is to be able to do research, so they will give us the items and materials we want on a priority basis. Furthermore, we have a contract with them that they will tell us all the results of their research.

However, the main materials are related to the infinite golem hierarchy, artificial oceans, and man-made mythological class weapons, etc. The level of difficulty is quite high, so I don't think the research will progress immediately.

In addition, the information that we are most interested in - "Will accelerating technology really destroy the world?" which will be kept secret by the Dragon Newt and the Demon Newt. The other dangerous entities besides the master are the following.

I thought that by attacking the "ruins of a large-scale past civilization" this time, I might be able to obtain information and hints that the two species are keeping secret without having to invade the two countries. ...... So far, we have not found any information about them.

We may discover more information in the future as we investigate and scrutinize the information.

The only thing is that on the left side of the religious painting ...... in the "ruins of a large-scale past civilization," there is a depiction of a "snake-like creature," which is the "mythological class weapon" that Nazna fought against, surrounded by human, beast, dragon, and other races (human, beast, and dragon). The people who appeared to be Dragonites, Elves, Dwarves, and Demonites were all gathered together. In addition, some black-haired human-like figures were gathered in the center, seemingly commanding the other species.

On the other side of them, a deformed figure with a mouth of huge, uneven teeth is depicted, and a monster is spewed out from its mouth, which appears to be a "snake-like creature" + 6 races + "Master (?)". The picture depicted a man fighting with a

I looked at the picture and thought about what Dagan said, "A god-like being who can destroy ancient people with a civilization that flourished in the past without a care in the world" - that's why "a being with a mouth full of wild teeth is depicted as a god ...... evil god". I guessed that the "M" in the name of the "M" is the "M" in the name of the "M".

I was able to see this picture, and I was also able to fight against "mythological class weapons" and learn that they actually existed. We were also able to obtain many magic items, weapons, and research materials, although they were weaker than what we had.

I think it was well worth the trip to the "Ruins of a Large Scale Past Civilization.

The monsters in the "Ruins of a Massive Past Civilization" are not as strong as ours, though.

There are also rare sceneries such as artificial seas, and I would love to take my sister Yume, fairy maids, and others to show them to everyone as a sightseeing tour.

And then I think.

（I wonder if the "C" that "Master" Hisomi was talking about is that evil god with the stiletto teeth. ......?)

There is a strong possibility that there is an entity somewhere that would be beyond "Masutaa.

Although there is still no definite conclusion as to whether HISOMI is a "master," he has a numerical value of level 5000.

He is wary of the existence of "C". C" has dependents and slaves, and when he saw us, he suspected that we were dependents of "C". Furthermore, there are examples of unawareness, he said.

I have never seen or heard of "C" myself, so this suggestion is not true at all, but HISOMI seemed to be very wary of "C." I was surprised to find out that HISOMI was not aware of the existence of "C" and that he was not a member of "C" at all.

Religious paintings in the "Ruins of a Large Past Civilization.

If it is said that "C" is an evil god-like being that confronts them and spits out monsters, it makes sense.

(But I also feel that it is a little different. I can't say what the difference is, but it feels different.)

I cannot explain well what that discomfort is. But something seems to be a little stuck.

--As I think about this, a knocking sound spreads through the office, interrupting my thoughts.

The fairy maid waiting in the corner of the room opens the door and asks me what I want.

After closing the door once, she asks me what I want.

Nazna-sama has requested to see you.

Nazna?"

Yes, I hear it's an urgent matter involving Yume-sama."

Yume's?　All right, put me through right away."

When I have time, I leave Nazna to guard Yume, my own sister. Yume and Nazuna are on the same wavelength, and Nazuna is the closest to Yume inside the lowest level of the "abyss," except for me.

The fairy maid moves quickly in response to my response.

When I open the door, Nazuna appears with a troubled look on her face.

She cuts me off.

Master, may I have a moment of your time?"

I don't care. I heard there was a problem with Yume. What's going on?

I couldn't see Master for a long time and I started to cry. ...... I know you're busy, but could I see her just a little bit?　In return, I'll do my best to make time for you by helping you with your work more!

Nazna raises her eyebrows and makes a face as if she is challenging a powerful enemy.

I don't think Nazna is capable of doing what I do - gathering information on the ground as an adventurer, doing clerical work at the lowest level of the "Natsura," and giving instructions to Mei and the others.

It is not that I am belittling her, it is just that she is not suited for the job.

Mei, Aoyuki, and Ellie in the room were also giving me subtle looks when she said that.

I let out a wry smile and responded.

Thank you for your concern, Nazna. It's true that I've been so busy with the dwarf issue that I haven't seen Yume for a long time. Now that we've had a break in our discussions, I'm going to go and see him now.

Since we took Yume in secret from the Human Kingdom, we have been busy with the Dwarf problem and other issues, and have not had a chance to see her.

I guess I made him feel lonely.

Hearing my response, Nazna shouted happily.

What?　Really, Master!　That's the master!　Then I'll go to Yume-sama right now and tell her that she can meet her master!"

Nazna leaves the room with a smile.

The sound of running down the hallway could be heard up here.

The destination must be Yume's room.

Ellie holds her head in her hands for being so rude, Mei holds her eyes, and Aoyuki cuts her gaze with her hoodie and is quietly angry.

I let out a faint giggle again and called out to everyone.

Everyone, calm down. Nazuna is only acting out of consideration for Yume, so please forgive her and let me off the hook here.

'--if the Lord wills.

I will follow your words, Mr. Wright. However, I advise you that you should speak to Nazna once about etiquette.

I agree with you, Ms. Mei. I can't believe that she would act so brazenly in front of the God of Light (Shinsama). ...... Really, Nazna-san, you are ......!

Of the three, Ellie was the most headstrong.

The two of them really get along.

To change the subject and the atmosphere, I make a suggestion.

Since it's a good opportunity, why don't we all go to Yume's together? We've been busy lately, so let's all have a cup of tea and relax.

Then I will prepare the tea right away," Mei announces.

Nya! Aoyuki cheerfully replies in feline language.

Nazuna-san, after the tea party, it's a preaching contest, isn't it? I won't let you get away with it, Nazuna-san. ......," Ellie divulges with a dark smile.

I get up from my seat in the office and take the three of us down to Yume.

Just for today, I'm going to forget my busy days and have a relaxing tea party.
