CH 140

While the young lady Kuroko, who was blown into the mysterious space of the Creator’s Temple, made her eyes widened, I called out to her after I had finished appraising her status.

From now on, in replay mode, it will be about one month according to the world standard over there, and about half a year with a margin in this world standard.

She would have to train in this temple for that period. 　 　

Well, if she can find another convenient place to train, there is no limit to that, but for now, there is no way she can miss this opportunity to train to the best of her ability. 　 　

In the first place, the creatures in this world are so strong that the current Kuroko-san can’t even raise her level. 　 　

Even if I accompanied her, if I let him fight on the front lines, she might just be devoured by the wyverns.

I don’t think I can let the young lady in my care do such a dangerous thing. 　

However, it would be a different story if she were to fight against goblins, horn rabbits, and other low-level monsters. 　

But that would naturally take a lot of time and be inefficient. 　 　

If so, although the experience value will be worse than the real thing, it should still grow faster if I recreate the enemy with abundant experience value originally in replay mode.

“That’s why, Kuroko-san. I’m going to summon a virtual creature with my power, so please fight it.”

“…”

“………… Are you listening to me, ……?”

I called out to her, but for some reason she absent-minded with her mouth hanging open. 　

I wondered what was wrong with her. 　

A few minutes ago, she seemed to be absorbed in thought, but now she’s just lost in thought. 　

Is there something on …… her mind? 　 　

Then I realized something. 　 　

My avatar is now 15 years old.

“Um, I’m sorry to bother you, but are you perhaps a relative of Saito-sama’s ……?”

“Ah, ……. ”

That was the cause after all. 　 　

Well, no wonder. 　 　

A young man who looks a lot like me is suddenly talking to her casually.

Normally, relatives don’t look that much alike. 　 　

At the very least, it should be a younger brother.

“Hahahahaha! That’s not true, Kuroko! This is the Kenji in this world! Kenji changes his appearance for his own convenience. Well, I’m already used to it.”

“Nah, uh …”

Mizzet’s explanation left Kuroko-san speechless with surprise.

But with that explanation, it sounds like I’m a weirdo of unknown age, but that’s not the case.

It’s not that I like to look like a child.

It’s just that my initial avatar, which I created thinking it was a game, was 10 years old. 　

After that, I changed the age of the avatar to 15 years old so that it would make sense in the world of 100 years ago after skipping 5 years, and here I am. 　

As an individual, I am 32 years old.

“It’s not the first time that Onigiri-man has used mysterious techniques, you know? Isn’t there such a thing in Onmyoudou?”

“Oh, no, there isn’t! What’s that? Age manipulation? That’s ridiculous. ……! No, but if this world is a virtual space, then …… ”

It seems that even with Onmyoudou, it was impossible to change the age setting. 　

I see.

However, if you ask me if the temple of the creator god here is a virtual world, I can’t say for sure that it is not. 　 　

I’m not sure if it’s a good idea for me to go to the gym, but I’m sure it’s a good idea for you.

“That’s right! It makes sense if it’s virtual world! But Saito-sama, if you want recreate Saito-sama in your younger days, why don’t you just say before…. I am very, very surprised!”

“Ahaha.”

She was pouting and angry with her cheeks dyed red, but she wouldn’t think of this as a battle in the virtual world alone, would she?

No, it’s fine. 　

We have time, and she’ll gradually get understand.

As a side note, if she had trained while equipping the items I created with the blessings of the creator gods, her experience efficiency would have been even higher. 　

However, as I didn’t understand the basic premise of how an Onmyoji fights, I didn’t think it would lead to good results if I interfered, so I decided to observe her fighting by herself first. 　 　

If she has any requests, I can create an item in creation mode each time.

“So let’s start with the Wyvern, a classic training exercise. Oh, don’t look too closely. It’s dangerous────”

“──── Ah?”

Gab.

A wyvern appeared behind Kuroko-san and ate her from the neck up. 　 　

A headless corpse was suddenly created.

“And it’s so fast …… Yeah, it’s shocking from the edge.”

It’s so realistic that Momiji had to run away from me for hours until she got used to the enemies in this replay mode. 　

The degree to which the near-death experience is reproduced is truly unique

“What is …………? What just happened …..?

“Welcome back, Kuroko-san. You’ve just died once.”

“What do you mean by ‘died’ ……?”

She tries to remember what she just did and her face goes pale. 　 　

Even if she believes it is a virtual space, her body instinctively understands that the experience is real.

Well, when it comes to experiences, she can’t level up without the real thing, so it can’t be anything but real.

“That’s what this space is all about. No matter how many times you die, you can come back to life and fight strong enemies without limit. If you are strong enough, you can fight with virtual characters like Momiji, Mizzet, and me.”

“Haha! Ahaha!”

“Well, I’m sure your mind is still a little freaked out by the unfamiliar experience of death, so let’s take a break.”

Even though I knew that this in this replay mode I was immortal, I was scared at first and couldn’t get around.

The only person who can quickly adapt to such a bad experience is Mizzet, who I suspect is genetically predisposed to combat. 　 　

Oh, yes, I have to add a note at the end. 　 　

If I don’t tell her this, she might not be able to see the significance of why she continue this torturous training.

“You may not realize it, but you are already five times stronger than before. Explore your spiritual power now.”

“What? It’s …………! This is ……!”

“That’s right. That is the strength of this world. If you continue to train at this rate, you will be the strongest Onmyouji when you return to the other side.”

I grinned and silently summoned the next monster.
