354 - - Episode 17 Possibility of Infinite Gacha

The current atmosphere in the lowest level of the "abyss" was very heavy.

This is because Light, the absolute master of the lowest level of the Abyss, is depressed.

Nazuna, with teary eyes, calls out to Ellie.

She said, "Hey, I guess the master is angry with me because I failed the mission and let Gou (that guy) die?"

It's all right. It is impossible for the God of Light to get upset over something as trivial as that. First of all, as far as I have heard the report, ......

?　Ellie, what's wrong?"

Ellie has her doubts after hearing the report from Nazna, but there is no point in questioning her, so she keeps quiet.

Above all, the problem is the lights.

She says, "...... No, it's nothing. The light God is not angry with Nazna. So you don't need to worry about it.

I understand. If Ellie says so much ......"

After calming Nazna down, Ellie turns from Nazna to a certain direction.

The room in front of her gaze is now filled with lights, one of which is depressed.

Just imagining the scene makes Ellie's chest tighten.

(I wish I could do something about it with my magic (power). ...... It is indeed too much to ask. It's "Level 9999 Forbidden Witch," and yet I can't be of help to the Light God at such an important time. ......)

While consoling Nazna, Ellie herself bites her teeth in her chest.

She laments her own inability to do anything while her beloved Wright is depressed.

--So what is Wright depressed about?

"............"

We successfully completed the mission to rescue brother Els and to capture Doc, the "Master" on the Majinkoku side.

If it were just the result, I would have no problem calling it a success.

My brother committed suicide to prevent further harm to me, but I was able to get confirmation from her that it was possible to bring him back to life with Ellie's "revival of the dead magic.

Thanks to the modification of her body, her endurance has been increased, only her heart was destroyed, and not much time has passed since her death, apparently.

There are various conditions for the "magic to revive the dead," such as that the body cannot withstand the "magic to revive the dead" if it is at a low level, that it cannot be applied if the corpse is dismembered, or if the corpse is decomposed or skeletonized after a long time has passed, but these conditions have been met.

If there is a problem, ...... is that there is no way to turn my brother from a monster back into a race.

I was currently sitting alone by my bed in the lowest room of the "abyss".

On the bed lies my dead brother, still in his monstrous state.

His heart, which was destroyed, has already been regenerated by Ellie's magic.

Thanks to Ellie's magic, he appears to be just sleeping on the bed.

I think back to Ellie's words in my heart in front of such a figure of my brother.

(According to Ellie, she really doesn't have a way to turn Ni-chan back from a monster to a race even if she checks the memories of the captured doc. May's sorcery to determine if it's true only reveals that he's not lying. ......)

Doc, who has been captured, is being tortured in the same basement as the former members of the "Gathering of Tribes" in order to extract information and to make him pay painfully for the crimes he has committed.

Considering what Doc has done to his race up to now, he is still a bit warm.

He tortured Doc's body and dug up his memories in various ways, trying to get Doc to tell him "how to turn Ni-chan back from a monster to a race," but he could only come to the conclusion that "there is no such a way.

My brother is now like mud mixed with sake.

Just as it is impossible to completely remove the mud and return the alcohol to its original state, it seems that it is impossible to return him from a monster to a race.

Since there is no way to bring my brother back from the monster to the original, even if I could bring him back to life immediately, it would only make him run amok and rampage again.

That would be pointless.

The current measure is to stop time with Ellie's Ultimate Class magic, because if left as it is, the brother's body will decompose.

It is not a stop of a few seconds or minutes.

It is a permanent suspension of time.

Now, my brother's body will no longer decompose, and there will be no more problems with the passage of time.

It really looks like he is just sleeping on the bed.

(Even with my incomparable wealth from my days as a poor farmer, even with my power to conquer the world's strongest and worst dungeon, "The Abyss," and surpass other race-discriminating nations, I still don't have the power to save my precious family. ......)

He folds his hands in prayer, presses his forehead against his head and turns over.

Regret overflows, and tears spill from my eyes.

I was beside my brother and just kept crying out of frustration and sadness.

I felt sad that I couldn't do anything for my brother, whom I had rescued at the last moment, and I let my tears fall.

I heard a knock at the door.

The door opens even though I did not answer it.

I knew who it was from the presence.

I thought I told you to leave me alone with Nee-chan for a while,...... Mei.

I'm sorry ......"

He unintentionally tells May who comes into the room with a stiff tone.

She utters an apology and moves closer to me.

She kneels down, takes out a handkerchief, and wipes my tears with a gentle hand.

Normally, her kindness should make me feel happy, but now it makes my heart tremble even more.

Please don't give up, Mr. Wright. There is still a way to rescue your brother.

The person who made the modifications, the doc, says he doesn't have it. Do you think even the Masters on the Dragon Empire side have that technology?"

That is too much wishful thinking.

Even though these "masterminds" have supernatural powers, it is unlikely that any of them have the power, ability, or skill to pinpoint and save my brother from being turned into a monster.

May shook her head at my words.

'No, no. The way to rescue your brother is in the hands of Mr. Light himself. It is the Infinite Gacha."

......!"

I realize it when I am told.

It was so familiar to me that I had forgotten about it, but my gift "Infinite Gacha" certainly has that possibility.

I was so familiar with it that I had forgotten about it, but my "infinite gacha" (gift) certainly has that possibility. With my "Infinity Gacha," there is a possibility that in the future there will be a card that will turn Ni-chan from a monster back into a race!　In fact, even a supernatural weapon such as the Genesis Class Gungnir has emerged from the "Infinity Gacha. It wouldn't be surprising if there were cards that could restore Ni-chan to her original state, cards that could restore her to her original state, cards that could restore her to her original state, cards that could restore her to her original state!

The scales fall from my eyes,' is exactly what he said.

I get up from my chair and turn to face May once again.

In the darkness of despair, May's advice has given me the light of hope.

I was so excited and grateful that I couldn't help but thank her and clasped May's hands in mine.

Thank you, Mei, thank you!　Thanks to you, I was able to realize the possibility of saving Ni-chan."

No need to thank me. My existence, my maid's way, is all for the Lord, Light-sama.

May sees me recovering from my depression and responds with a smile, perhaps happy to see me back on my feet.

Still, I let out another tear and thanked her for her kindness.

I am not crying because I am sad.

They were tears of joy at having found hope.

Again, Mei wiped my tears with her handkerchief.

Unlike before, she wiped my tears with a handkerchief again, this time with a gentle touch that seemed to convey that she herself was filled with joy.
