A Mid-level (Middle-aged) Office Worker’s Laid-Back Industrial Revolution in Another World
Episode 950: Return from a protective facility. (Reflections. )
Takeo and Meyer were walking towards the inn.
"Director. Are you sure?
"... did you say Lara?
She was kind of... yeah... you felt like you knew what we were trying to do.
Hmm?... Mr. Meyer. Let's go to the private room again.
Takeo touched his chest pocket and spoke.
At the cafe where we took lunch.
Takeo and the others were in the same private room as earlier.
"Lord. That is the same Elder Moon Slime as Yugiri.
"Durj is a spirit, isn't he?
Was it indeed an unclean spirit?
Though I didn't think I would serve anyone.
Two little ones rose their identities.
"... By now, the morning mist (green) that divided them would have been absorbed.
Takeo says as he thinks.
"You were better on the other side.
Meyer says as she thinks.
"We must have lost in the prep phase.
Where was the problem viewed from?
The morning mists were unleashed everywhere on the road... "
"Would you do so extensively?
"The question arises as to how to distinguish between a mission or a traveler, so... if you knew about the arena, would you at least have seen it since yesterday?
No. Maybe he's stationed in the arena?
... Well, now you don't know.
Takeo sighs.
"Director. Why bother wanting slime?
"... as of yesterday's visit, did you want to know that Pana is some kind of spirit?
You wanted to know about the colored clouds that are the underlying Elder Moon Slime...
I don't think you're showing your abilities in the case of panas, do you? The morning fog was feeding everyone a midnight leftovers after they went to bed, and... Ah. Did you give the diagnosis to a family member yesterday?
Could you have seen the morning fog (green)?
You'll find out the information on the morning fog (green) base when it's taken in.
You might have given too much information about this one.
"Either way, what are you going to do next?
"Yeah. At least they didn't seem hostile over here.
But it didn't seem like they wanted anything.
"Yes.
Either that or you seemed to be refusing to intervene ostensibly in that land.
Given the fact that I handed it over, I was wondering if it would be perceived as an attempt to avoid rubbing it in accordance with obedience rather than rejection of the request from this one.
Did you think that if you showed a rejection of a request from another country, you would intervene in any way?
"Why Elder Moonslime is in a protective facility.
Well, there's a lot of food in a lot of ways, and I guess there's a lot of people who rarely come high up so they can live in secret.
And... "
"The director over there. You were screwed.
"I guess I've lost a lot of weight lately because my clothes and body shape aren't that good.
But you don't think you can do that with slime, do you?
then.
"It must be the Spirit.
Lord Pana. What kind of spirit is that spirit?
"Durji is one of the evil gods of Zoroastrianism, isn't he?
The mission is to scatter impurities all over the world.
I think it spreads a fly-mediated infectious disease... wondering why she's here and this city's safe.
"Flies... infectious diseases...
In my image, I think that infectious diseases are mediated by mosquitoes, no?
"Takeo. Mosquitoes can be infected by stabbing viruses such as dengue fever and Japanese encephalitis, but flies can be infected by mediating food and reaching E. coli, diarrhoea, and polioviruses to the digestive organs.
"Poliovirus?
Takeo twists his neck.
"I have a terrible fever and I bring it down terribly.
"... Roger that.
Then I guess that's where you threatened the director's family.
Make a prophecy. You're right. Your family falls. Symptoms appear... that's the strongest threat.
Still, it seemed like the people in the shelter were just asleep... but, um... they seemed to have been put to sleep rather than slept with adults, didn't they?
I feel like a lot of people run into the bathroom if Pana is right.
No one was walking to it, were they? Yes. That was a very uncomfortable place.
"... It's true that there are few cases, but they say polioviruses can get into the central nervous system and sometimes have paralysis symptoms when they reach the brain stem and cerebral cortex.
Pana says as she thinks.
"... do you think you can intentionally inject it into the central nerve?
Takeo asks Pana with a serious face.
"It's hard to say that it's easy, but it's no surprise that Durge has a high probability of making it.
"Then the majority of those in that facility are infected with poliovirus.
But you might consider that Durge's power limits the infection to certain people.
"Takeo. So is the general paralysis, but they are bogged down because they also have high fever.
Maybe it feels like a dream.
"... that Lara said.
Paradise.
"Where those wounded in battle and abandoned from the city gather... is it paradise to spend the rest of your life in dreams?
It's a sad reality... but maybe some people think that's good for them, too.
Takeo's words made Meyer look difficult.
------------------------
A room in a protective facility.
"Lord. What will those people do?
Durji asks Lara.
"Left alone."
"Okay.
But are you sure?
"Good or bad, that mission belongs to the kingdom of Azpur.
I live in a place that faces the demonic kingdom... and has nothing to do with me.
Rather, those in that mission gave their compatriots a place of peace.
No hands. "
"Yes.
How many people are there over there?
"In the memory of the green slime... it was produced from a bird mold, wasn't it?
How many more people are there?
Mm-hmm... you don't know the spirit at the heart.
Most of them don't have any sound, but... why?
"Lord. It's a bin.
Lara hacks at Durge's words.
"Mm-hmm... well. You won't have a choice.
Still, a lot of information can't be maintained to the extent of slime.
I remember all the futility... "
"Although there seems to be a lot of information if it's Elder Slime.
"Elder won't be out early.
Elder Moon Slime surrounds you.
Even I have a few surroundings.
"Right.
And it's been about a month since I materialized.
This place is abandoned not only by the abandoned in the arena, but also by those from all over the city who have no life left... "
"You'll be just fine for me to hide myself.
Besides, Durge also materialized it for me.
"Well... it's my job to inflict pain and fear on people...
The people at this facility were terrible... and you stuck with them.
It's a great place to work because I can use my family members to use my abilities.
"... this facility has become mine in the past month.
Every day the people are abandoned and die.
Can... can we make this place a place of peace for Slime?
"Well... let's do our best for the Lord.
... What about the mission?
"They say that mission over there will protect you if you prepare the land and do your job.
... but it was good.
"Hmm? Lord, what is it?
"This is not only where our" Elder Moon Slime "can live, but also in other countries.
We are the weakest slime. How thankful it is that a land of peace can be gained.
The people of this land try to look down and dominate the demons, but the other side treats their subordinates equally or slightly below... at least they don't seem to treat them underneath.
"Lord. Are you envious?
"I envy you.
But I made a deal with you to create a dominated area of slime in the land.
How many hundred years has it taken you to get here?
At any rate, we will create a place where slime can safely live in this land.
"Yes. Lord.
So... how about creating a subordinate?
"... in the same way as those in the mission, but now it's where Elderslime took in the remains of the human species.
I think it's evolving fast because I'm the one who's been in Elder Slime for decades... but often it stays this way.
I guess that human director will have to do the same for you.
"Right.
We need to create a collaborator with a little more power.
"Mm-hmm... it's hard to know that area.
You can't just watch it from the woods.
"Yes. So I'm here.
Lord of eternity. Let's expand our forces together.
"... I'd rather have a land where I can live in secrecy and tranquillity than expand my forces.
Lara sighed.
