167 Episode 112: The Sixth Incapacity and Return

"Chi, damn it. If this were to happen, I would have used my true power sooner..."

"It would be too late to regret it now..."

"… (Kokukoku)"

Already the 'true power' and the glow of the dot disappear completely, and all that remains is the Ponko Angel (Schubert), who has almost lost his presence.

Schubert's presence diminished, so did the shaking of the Grey Man at some point.

"Not yet! I'm not done yet! Come on, faint beasts! Protect me!

Schubert didn't seem to be going to give up yet, and he called the Void Beasts out loud.

I wiped out all the void beasts around here, but can we call the void beasts far away?

A: If it's a void beast generated by Schubert, you can call it no matter how far away it is. This is due not to the properties of [False Beast Generation], but to the properties of [Divine Authority].

Characteristics are supposed to be different from skills, but they have some convenient effect.

I can't even take it away from you because it's not a skill...

"Later, there will come a beast so empty that it cannot be counted here. I can't even deal with you guys on a boulder. It's haz! Now you're done! Hahahahahahahahahahahaha!"

Schubert laughs high as if he was sure of the victory.

But it seems to take some time to get here because we're wiping out all the near-field void beasts.

"Hey, aren't the Void Beasts coming yet?

"Wait, wait! Wait a minute! I'll be here in a while!

… five minutes later.

"You did have a false beast coming. But, unfortunately, you can count it?

"Hey, why are you only here..."

Coming there were a total of four Imperial Beasts: one Immortal Bird (Phoenix), one Sky King Beast (Bahamut), one Divine Wolf (Fenrill) and one Monocular Giant (Cyclops).

On the contrary of countless, it is a level that counts with a finger of one hand.

Because of the distance, I thought it would take some time for them to do it, and the Void Beasts really aren't getting any closer. This is a stop. Why would you do that?

A: You can call the Void Beast, but it is up to the Void Beast to decide whether to follow its instructions or not. The majority of the fictitious beasts chose to ignore the Schubert crisis.

So you're saying you were abandoned by the false beasts you created?

Schubert, there's too little morality. It's hilarious... Both Schubert and the False Beast are Magippon tricks.

It should be noted that those false beasts were instantly killed by Maria's hand when they came. He wanted me to concentrate on fighting the archangel (Archangel), so he bought me an exposé and got out.

"You, the False Beasts have abandoned you."

"Ha!? What the hell are you talking about? Well, that's why!

"But the false beasts aren't coming, are they? I called you, and you're not coming, are you?

"Then, stupid..."

Stunning shovel, but the colour of giving up also floats on its face.

I'm guessing he notices it in person too.

Let me ask you one more time about this world, as it seems that the Ponko Angel has fallen into inaction due to a lack of energy caused by self-destruction, has also failed to summon the last request, the Void Beast, and has finally run out of hands to strike. Now that I'm weak, my mouth will be slipping better.

"Well, I didn't get an answer earlier, but haven't you changed your mind or something? You're not gonna explain this world to me?

"You're kidding me! No matter how many times you ask me, there's nothing like telling them!

It is more compelling than I thought.

"Well, I'm sorry to hear that, but I can't help but ask."

"Ha!? You think I'm gonna crack your mouth with torture! Don't lick me! If you can do it, try it!

"Okay. Then let me do that."

- Doggo!

I decided on my last belly bread for Schubert.

'Forced to ask' is not as easy to understand as torture.

"Ghah! Listen, you didn't ask...!?

"Let's hear it out. After absorption."

I was wiped out of the rest of my energy by the belly pan and absorbed the dying Schubert as a particle of light by the LV8.

It is then reconstructed as a pseudo-personality by < Multiple Presence (Avatar) LV4 >.

Yes, the 'forced to ask' method was an inhumane place to kill once, absorb, reconstruct your personality and force you to spit information (angels have no human rights).

"If you'd answered me honestly, I would have been Mr. Archangel (Archangel) Tamo. I wanted information, and I would have to..."

Shame.

Tamo the Grey Man. Tamo groans unfortunately as he disarms.

There was also a proposal to let Tamo < absorb > the Archangel (Archangel) Schubert.

But Schubert didn't answer this question, so I had no choice but to absorb it myself (I don't have the option to say long persuasion from the beginning).

I let Tamo < absorb > all the void beasts in the corner, so he said that it would have been better to let Tamo < absorb > his best balls as well...

In the first place, there is no other advantage to my absorption of Schubert than information.

First of all, if I absorb it, I will get Schubert skills and I will be able to use them...... but Schubert is pointless because he doesn't have the skills.

"Characteristics" cannot be obtained, so it will not be possible to create a false beast either.

If Tamo was absorbed, he would just do it differently from me, so he could reproduce it firmly to his characteristics.

Of course, the initial flesh can be given by < Multiple Presence (Avatar) LV5 >, but the original properties are hardly taken over by "Temporary First Flesh".

Therefore, no one can create a false beast. It is truly a shame.

> A new alien has been unleashed.

< Expanded Interpretation (Macrocosmos) LV1 >

Ability to enhance and expand the effectiveness of the skills, abilities, and items in your possession. This ability can be used up to 10 at the same time, and other subjects can be enhanced by releasing enhancements and extensions.

Yes. I don't know why, but I woke up with a new psychic.

... It's been a long time since a new psychic opened his eyes, but to say that he opened his eyes at this time must be psychic enough to solve my problems.

Which......

Much of it is vague and alien, but this feels like a hell of a lot of silly stuff.

They enhance and expand skills, abilities, and items, but to what extent on earth can they be enhanced?

"Maria, I'm going to give it a try because a new psychic has opened my eyes"

"Okay. Be careful."

……

Maria's used to it, and she's not surprised by my abrupt behavior.

The Ashes on the other hand are tilting their necks with cotens.

In the meantime, I will try to activate the Expanded Interpretation (Macrocosmos) for.

The skill level is 10, so you can travel a distance of 14m in an instant.

With the enhanced shrinkage method, I will first try to see if I can travel a distance of 20m. … succeeded.

Next try to travel a distance of 30 m. … succeeded.

40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100 m. … all succeeded. Still, I feel good...

"This... could suck"

"Dear Jen, what the hell have you done? It looked like she was using the shrinkage method... No, but you shouldn't be able to travel that far."

I guess Maria noticed the anomaly of the sight now because she also uses the shrinkage method.

"Apparently, it's an anomaly that can enhance existing skills, anomalies, and items. When I tried it on the shrinkage method, I said as you can see. Maybe ten times as far away as you can go."

"That's... another alien with a tremendous effect. I'm Shigemitsu-sama."

"Shall we verify a little more? I feel like this imbecile is kinda serious and sucks."

That's why Schubert's pseudo personification is behind him.

No, no, he said it wasn't the other way around...

"I wonder what I'll use it for next.... I really want to reinforce Fireball by following the template, because magic is not available in this world."

A: If it is magic using < Expanded Interpretation (Macrocosmos) >, it can also be used in this world. However, you cannot travel between worlds by 'portal'.

Using < Expanded Interpretation (Macrocosmos) >, they will be able to ignore the rule that says' magic cannot be used in this world '. That's awesome.

I use Expanded Interpretation (Macrocosmos) for Fire Magic.

Activate "Fireball" as is. Naturally, it's for those who don't have anybody.

"'Fireball'!

The moment I proclaimed my magic, a mass of fire appeared in front of me that exceeded 10 m.

Turned it off.

"Here it is, it sucks. The power of just letting it out sucks, but the magic consumption (MP) hasn't changed from the usual 'fireball'. Simply the power and range jumped. Ignore existing rules completely."

It completely ignores even the supremely natural rule of "powerful magically consuming MP is huge".

Heterogeneity's disregard for the rules has not begun now, but this < Expanded Interpretation (Macrocosmos) > seems particularly influential.

"Dear Jen, if you use that alien power to use level 10 magic, wouldn't that just destroy one country? Not to mention the capital, but every territory..."

"Maybe it's not that hard..."

"...... (BULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBULBUL

Whatever you think, it is an obvious overpower.

See, the Grey Man is also mecha frightened. It's all right. I'm not scared.

When I stroked him to soften the grey man, he seemed to have managed to contain the tremor.

You were supposed to be scared of me, but I don't know what's going on with me giving up and healing?

"This incompetence, it may be dangerous if you don't seriously consider treating it. You don't know what happens when you do something bad. You must check with Alta and verify it when you use it."

"Yes. In that sense, you also feel this place is just fine. Because you can try everything without bothering anyone."

"Sure, you can say that. This is going to be a perfect experiment site for the aliens."

It's a world where there's no one to get involved in, and there's something dressed up as a false beast.

Not Weaver, but this world is very convenient.

With that said, Alta. What happens when you use Enlarged Interpretation (Macrocosmos) for Ingenious?

A: Inequivalence is originally higher than skill, so it is not expected to be as enhanced as skill even under the influence of < Expanded Interpretation (Macrocosmos) >. However, since the original effects are significant, it seems that there is no harm in keeping it for all the alien powers.

For example, what does it do?

A: This is an effect if used for xenogenesis, but for example, if used for < Chiari Eye (System Window) >, the map can be extended in scope or more detailed information can be found. If used for < Multiple Presence (Avatar) >, the accuracy of the tentative initial flesh given to the pseudo personality is increased. Specifically, it can reproduce even the properties of a fictitious beast or archangel (Archangel).

This time, I absorbed the archangel (Archangel) and opened my eyes at a foolish time that its properties had been wasted, so naturally that point has been resolved.

Now I can use the abilities of an archangel to create as many false beasts as I want.

Of course, I'm talking about what happened because I could do that...

In the meantime, use < Expanded Interpretation (Macrocosmos) > for the five allergens as recommended by Alta. Let's put the last five on hold and use them every time we need them.

I put it behind me because the anomaly opened my eyes, but I have also completed the reconstruction of Schubert's pseudo personality.

I guess it's time to pull the information out of Schubert.

A: Now we will start the shovel.

Schubert: Hmm? What, where am I? Hey, what the hell is going on!? Can't move!? No, I don't have a body in the first place...? What the hell am I...

A: It's annoying, so we stopped once.

I'm sure it bothered you, so there's no choice.

A: Force installation of underlying information in the stopped state. Set the volume of voice as a limit. Set forbidden words. Apply Level 10 severe pain in case of violation. We will restart.

S: Just kidding! Why should I be used by humans? This shit............ is burning but it hurts......

A: We decided it was harmful to the master, so we forced it to stop. We will not put it on the table until the adjustment has been made.

After all, Alta is spicy and relentless towards pseudo-personality.

Are you saying that you can't get information about the world from Schubert?

Originally, I absorbed Schubert because that was what I was looking for, so I can say the main fall.

But you won't even be able to listen properly in the current state, so you're saying it turns out to be the same...

A: No problem. When reconstructed as a pseudo personality, all Schubert's memory information is complete with historical viewing. Apparently, it was arranged with the minimum amount of information required and did not have much information.

Alta was too competent and Schubert's pseudo-personality role disappeared.

Well, does Alta now even have a memory view of her pseudo-personality?

And disappoint in Schubert, who doesn't have any busy information. After all, it's pompous......

A: Please wait while Schubert's manifestation is taught to a level where there is no problem getting it out in front of the master.

The tutoring of an archangel is also a terrific word in it.

Well, I'm tired of dealing with you like that, and can I leave you to Alta?

A: Yes, I'll take care of it.

Throw the Schubert thing round Alta and ask him about the information he managed to get.

The one thing that bothers me the most is where the Gate of Boundaries connects. For once, it looks like Schubert was in a gatekeeping position, and you know where it leads to in the other world?

A: I don't know.

Why has this world been abandoned by the goddess? Do you know what kind of world it was originally?

A: I don't know.

Is there only a false beast and a grey man in this world? What the hell is a grey man in the first place?

A: I don't know.

I don't get more important information than I thought. Seriously, that archangel pong trick......

... No, maybe that's right in a way. Giving the gatekeeper more information poorly increases the risk of extra information leakage.

It certainly makes sense to give the gatekeeper only minimal information.

For the record, this is why I say that the benefits of pseudo-personifying Schubert are gone.

The role of generating a false beast remains, but the same can be done even if Tamo does.

There is only one thing Schubert's pseudo personality can do. Besides, pseudo personalities are waiting to be taught.

This is a bit of a failure......

Now that the confirmation of the things obtained in the battle against Schubert is over, I think it's time to start getting ready to return to the other world.

First of all, the first thing we have to do will be the annihilation of the remaining phantom beasts.

You defeated the Archangel (Archangel), so there will be no more Vain Beasts.

And you got the properties of an archangel (Archangel), so you can always create a false beast.

Therefore, the false beast that already exists can only stand in the way. I mean, you can kill him.

We decided to set up a "portal" in front of the "Gate of Boundaries" to share and defeat the Fallen Beasts. Between the worlds, the 'portal' seems to take effect.

And by strengthening my "portal," everyone under my command will benefit from it.

"The Flying Sword!" Shrinkage method! Flying Sword Slash! Shrinkage method! Flying Sword Slash! Shrinkage method! Flying Sword Slash! Shrinkage method!

I ran endlessly through the streets of the building destroyed by the enhanced Shrinkage Act and destroyed the Fallen Beasts with a series of shots.

Note that the Expanded Interpretation (Macrocosmos) is not used for. Because I got an answer from Alta that if I could destroy Building Street without a trace, I wouldn't have a problem using it.

Maria is hunting a false beast with tactics generally similar to mine.

Mr. Tamo has become Mr. Sky King Beast (Bahamut) Tamo, ravaging the Vain Beast from the sky.

Mr. Tamo's attack is the most flashy. Well, if I make a flashy attack, the damage will suck, so there's no choice.

Note that the Grey Man is leaving a message in front of the 'Gate of Boundaries'.

Just in case, it's with Vega, Alta's terminal.

The enlargement of the map increased the range of enemies, resulting in a more efficient annihilation than ever before, resulting in the total annihilation of the remaining Vain Beasts in just two hours.

Of course, experience is also know-how. Combined with the experience of the Archangel (Archangel), he finally made it past level 2000.

Good. You hated something about losing to Weihara on a level...

We are assembled in front of the Gate of Boundaries when the annihilation of the Imperial Beast is over and we confirm that we have never left anything to do in this world.

It is unclear where the 'Gate of Boundaries' leads, but there will be no such thing as a trap on the boulder at the destination of the transfer. I don't think Weihara will set a trap that won't be exciting for the event.

Still, you should keep enough to draw attention.

"I know it's okay, but don't be too careful when you cross the Gate of Boundaries."

"Of course. I will never expose myself to ugliness like that again. Absolutely..."

Maria declares with a strong will in her eyes.

Ugliness is probably when Weihara's ploy made me move in front of you.

I don't give a shit, but Maria seems to care a lot.

"Maria, don't get too sick of what's past"

"Yes...... Thank you for your concern."

Hmm, it could only be counterproductive if I encourage it......

In fact, when asked how they could have stopped Weihara's array,... I can't, can I? Whatever you think is inevitable, isn't it? I didn't even have time to avoid it...

Maria didn't have any trouble thinking about Weaver just because she was out of standard.

"I wouldn't have been able to avoid it if it weren't for my ability to predict."

"Predictive ability…, did you have that hand"

"No, I was joking..."

"Dear Jen, I, I will surely show you in my ability to predict!

"Ooh..."

Apparently, I pushed Maria's weird switch.

In the first place, do the skills exist in this world? I don't think it's unlikely because it's a crack major skill......

A: Yes, there are multiple skills in prediction. All of that is a unique skill.

After all, it looks like there is.

And it's scary that Maria might remember that it would really be a skill in predictive pedigree.

Regardless of Maria's future development policy, it's time to truly cross the 'Gate of Boundaries'.

I open the metal door of the Gate of Boundaries. At the end of the opening, the light was swirling, and it was impossible to see ahead.

"The Gate of Boundaries" is surprisingly large, and there's plenty of room for three of us to lay down.

"Then let's hold hands and go through the Gate of Boundaries together"

"Yes."

"Understand…"

"… (Cochlear)"

He held hands alongside Maria to the right, mainly me, and the Grey Man (Mr. Tamo Armor) to the left.

Note that Vega is in.

"Let's go!

Maria and the Grey Man (with Tamo) pull their hands together and jump into the 'Gate of Boundaries'.

Entering the 'Gate of Boundaries', the vision had been switched at the next moment.

Apparently he is indoors and it is dark because there is no light.

"'Lightball'"

Maria used Light Magic to secure the light source.

To say that magic could have been used without would be to say that we could have returned to the original world. Seen, colours other than gray are firmly present in the room illuminated by light.

"Apparently, you made it back safely."

"Oh, that's fine, but where are we after all?

……

A: In national terms, it looks like 'The Elgant Empire'.

The Elgant Empire? I don't like the neighborhood of the Reich.

... In the meantime, let's put my personal taste behind me and listen.

"The Elgant Empire? What the hell kind of country is that?

A: It is a religious power north of the Kingdom of Eldia, ahead of the Kingdom of Sanokia, home of Serra. National religion is goddess. It is also a country where the brave men who opposed the war are staying in Eldia.

Although indirect, it was a surprisingly marginal country.

To say that there are brave men who did not take part in the war will probably be the hub of the future against the Demons.

I don't care about the state religion, but you might want to see how it goes for once.

Somewhere at the national level, I understand, but I would like a little more information.

A: This is the northernmost city of the Elgant Empire, where it was. It was the then divine capital, the capital, destroyed by the Demon King some generations ago. Since then, there has been no reconstruction by saying that it is not good luck, and it will be a land that has been abandoned for a long time. You have to go quite south to get to the current Kanto. It should be noted that this is the site of a former cathedral, an underground hidden room where only the Pope could enter.

Well, it makes sense to look at the map, but there's no one around.

And it is ironic to say it is ruined again, even though it has returned from a world like a corner ruin.

I'm not an abandoned maniac.

I look behind my back, remembering.

There are doors here that have the same design as the "Gate of Boundaries" we used. If you open the door, the light is swirling just as you saw it over there, and it looks like you can go to the other world again.

"Once you use it, it won't last for a while, it doesn't seem like anything."

"Yes, now you can always go to the other world"

"... (sighs)"

The Grey Man doesn't seem to want to go back to the other world, shaking his head sideways with all his might.

For the record, the Grey Man remained grey even when he came to this world.

It's just a little shame because I thought maybe the grey man might come in color.

But don't even feel like you can't be the Grey Man if it comes in color. It is a crisis of identity collapse of the Grey Man. What should I call you? Colored man? No, you're a colored man, considering the story.

"I know where this place is, and it's time to go back to the mansion"

"Yes, everyone should be looking forward to Jen's return."

That's why we decided to activate the "portal" and return to Castar's mansion.

When we returned to Castar's mansion, 50 maids lined up side-by-side.

"Welcome home, Jen" × 50 + α

The maids bow and concur at the same time.

Apart from that, the main party groups of Sakura and Mio, Dora and Serra, as well as the Castar Adventurers, Estea Explorers, the subordinates from all over the country, and even the royalty, gathered quite a few of my men.

"Oh, I'm home"

When I gave it back, everyone came to me with a loud voice.

"Welcome home, Jen... It's best if you come home safely..."

"Welcome back. Though we talked about it in a nutshell, I thought monophony was number one."

"Wow, you're home!

"Good luck to you. Sounds like a lot's happened."

"Oh, shall we talk about the details later? It's been a lot of fun."

Sakura and the main party team will be delighted with my return. We'll talk about souvenirs later.

The next time I look at the maids, I talk to Lucea, who was in the lead.

"When I was fighting, I heard Lucea and the others gave instructions to the distribution to collect their stats. Thank you very much, thank you."

"Yes, it's an unbearable word. Lord, we look forward to your safe return."

The maids, including Lucea, bowed deeply.

In the battle with Weihara, the maids gave instructions to the distributors to efficiently collect their stats. It would have been pretty tough then because there was no Alta support either.

A: I'm sorry.

No, because I'm not going to blame Alta for what she did.

As I said earlier, Weihara is more substandard.

Then he speaks up in turn with the Castar Adventurers, Estea Explorers, and the submissive demons. Speak up to those who do not belong to me, but who have joined me.

In their battle with Weaver, too, they seem to have worked hard to collect their stats, so we have to work hard.

After saying hello, I decided to take a bath for the first time in a long time.

After I get out of the bath, they're going to throw a big party.

I was eating Mio's food in the other world, but I still miss Maria and me eating in a world without color. It should be noted that Mr. Tamo's staple food is a fictitious beast (different), and the Grey Man eats nothing.

"Phew..."

It's been a long time since I've soaked myself slowly in the bath, and my voice was overwhelmed by how comfortable I felt.

There's something tough about just wiping a wet towel on a boulder for days.

To tell you the truth, if I transported bathtubs and hot water via, I would have bathed in the other world, but I stopped wondering if I could make it that far.

"What do you say? Feel good?"

"… (Kokukoku)"

I don't care, but the Ashes are taking a bath with me, too.

It's a child for the purpose I saw, and it doesn't seem to have any gender, so I put it in man water for now.

The grey man is low in height and when he sits, the hot water comes to face height, so he puts it on my lap.

I have no regrets for bringing in the Grey Man. But there is something troubling about future treatment.

Anyway, I can't communicate at all.

For once, the story seems to make sense, but there is only a gesture of how the grey man communicates his own will. It's also limited to really simple things like yes or no.

"Do you have something you want to do?

"… (Coten)"

The grey man just tilts his neck.

"It's nothing to bother me, so I don't mind if I say I don't have to do anything..."

"… (Coten)"

Ashes consume little energy to live.

I didn't have to eat anything, so I didn't show any interest in our meals.

It's small and uninterrupted, and if it doesn't cost food, it doesn't excrete. It is a delicate position that there is nothing the ash man can do or be annoyed with.

"… (Coten)"

"Ah!"

- Dobon!

The clap of the grey man leaning his neck fell off my lap.

I am completely out of shape and about to drown with Gobogobo, so I lift it up and rescue it gently.

"Ha!"

It was the rescued grey man who exhaled heavily. No, are you now a colored man......

Yes, I drowned, and when I thought I helped, the Grey Man became a colored man at some point.

I mean, briefly, the grey man came in color.

"Is that it?"

A colored man tilting his neck again, but this time with a line.

The height and overall appearance of the grey man and the coloured man have not changed, but the skin has become coloured and the eyes have become black. Only my hair remained gray, but my hair was semi-long.

And overall, I feel more vibrant.

Note that when I lifted it, I noticed that it was becoming a girl.

A: Master, please check your status.

Hmm? Which one......

Name: None

LV1

Gender: Female

Age: 0

Race: Grey (otherworldly) x 1024

Skills:

Characteristics: [Resonance] [Dilute]

Title: Metastatic

Surprisingly, even the status notation of the colored man had changed.

To be more precise, should I say that it conforms to the specifications of this world? Items of characteristics remain, and there seems to be some representation of the number of people, but it is generally the specification of this world.

Really, what happened?
