Golden Experience

Episode 119: Lila

"Ugh, openness.

Full-body armor was originally created for defense against slaughter, not something you can wear when fighting or explaining. Whole body armor is... No, I'll explain this later. Let's start with an earlier continuation.

Uh, I guess it came from where I applied for a closed alpha tester.

Isn't that about what you've heard, Rae? Rumor has it that this game is made by diverting World Simulator technology.

When I first heard this rumor, I thought it was impossible. It's mainly about technology and cost. When it comes to this company, which is a global hitmaker in the first place, there won't be any connections that can bring up the kind of technology that hasn't even been put into practice like that, and even if it did, it hasn't figured out how much money it will need to operate. Even infrastructure at the time of operation.

But then again, I thought the game itself looked interesting. That's why I applied. So I was lucky enough to be chosen as a tester.

The pledge was tough, like not being able to say anything about the content of the game, but that's normal for an alpha test, and whoever you say it to... no, well, I wasn't willing to think ethically and say it.

So at this point, I was just going to let you touch me a little bit further and just consolidate the direction so that I could set the starting dash at the start of the formal service.

And stepped on the earth of this world.

This city... but when I entered the king's capital of this country, felt the air, made contact with NPCs, killed them at times, and spent a day like that, I was serious about playing this game. It's been a long time since this happened.

But no matter how much I thought about it, it's an alpha test. Where I worked hard, the data on that avatar would be derried once the test was complete. Doesn't make sense.

But that's only about the tester's avatar.

This is the only world I've ever made. Even if a systemic glitch were found in this test, would it reset the map or object to fix it? They say they have NPCs that are making so much of it and are so desperate to live their days.

So I decided to make one bet. What, even if it didn't work anyway, the data just disappears. It's no different from what I originally planned. Then I won't lose anything if I just try.

I raised funds by all means during the α test.

It was mainly raids on NPCs, as they say are millionaires.

Sneak into mansions and stores at night, when you're asleep, put them in a vault-by-vault inventory and escape. I did this as much as I could overnight.

The next day, destroy the safe in a place no one will see, and take out the contents. Something that really needed a key, etc., was left in place for now.

I repeated this until the end of the test, and on the last day something snuck into the noble mansion and threw something like a family heirloom from one end into the inventory.

The property thus obtained was buried in the corner of the safety area in the realm of demons, pre-hit.

If I win the bet and these objects remain without resetting, I can make a good start on the next test, and if I can connect that baton to official service, that advantage is immeasurable.

Of course I could have applied for the next test and become a tester.

I don't know if it's because it's easy to compare, but do you know that testers who have been tested once will still be selected as a priority next time? Every time a test is done for that purpose, there will be more participants, but well, that's good.

I suppressed feelings of deviation and saw the tutorial. Whoa, you don't know this, but the line in the tutorial AI is actually changing subtly when it comes to the first and second tests. What's more, the line is different when it's open beta. It was the old Ota who was checking these details properly - okay, let's talk about this later.

Anyway, I first went for where I buried the treasure that day.

The journey itself was fine, as by this time the tests basically spawned on all the kings' capitals of the countries.

It was just that the tester was dense for that matter, so I was only careful not to be followed.

The place we got to was definitely where we buried it, but the grass was growing.

There was nothing like after someone buried something.

I despaired but was concerned that only the flowers growing where I was supposed to have buried were blooming in a different colour than the flowers around me.

Just in case, I dug there. Then there slept the treasure I was supposed to bury.

The colour of the flowers was different because the soil constituents were different only in this place.

I was convinced then.

I don't know if this game is a world simulator, but I'm pretty sure it was developed with the intention of really making the world, at least using technology close to it. "

"Long!"

"That's a really long time... No, the story is interesting.

And then the NPC is desperately alive every day, and then a few seconds later, it's raiding, and it's pretty fucked up there, and it's like, oh, this guy, Rae, he's got something to do with it. "

"So what does Lila have to say to you after all?"

"Well, here's the story. Look, even the tea our maid brewed me. Drink and calm down. There's also a tart. I baked this. If it's possible in real life even if you don't have skills, you can do it normally. Instead, there are no special effects. Whoa, you don't have to panic. There's more. You liked this, Rae.

Now, that's how I got one end of the truth in this world and a huge amount of money.

Naturally, it doesn't make a lot of sense to grow an avatar, just as it does in tests at this time. Continuing I ran off to earn money.

However, it was not a criminal act like the last one that took place at this time.

I was interested in doing business based on the money I got last time.

And at this time, when I was about to launch the Chamber of Commerce, I realized that it had actually been ten years in the game since the last test.

The Chamber of Commerce I raided last time was crumbling, and the millionaires were falling apart.

The place I buried was buried in the grass, not because objects had changed or anything, but simply because of age.

So I came up with it.

He said that he had defeated the thief and retrieved the family treasure he had once taken, and wondered if he could make a connection to the nobility.

It has been ten years, even though it is suspected that the deprived soon appeared. Besides, my appearance is young. I should assume it's unlikely I was involved in the case ten years ago.

I thought it was an avatar that disappeared last time and at this time anyway, and the appearance settings were made randomly. Even if someone was watching the crime at the time, they wouldn't be able to tie it to me at this time.

The point is, I was thinking about selling you a favor with a match pump.

and well that's how I increased my trust, track record, and financial strength.

And I used this connection and wondered if I could leave anything behind.

The money will be good enough already. I can't even think of a use for it.

If so, it's an item. The only thing you can carry over is a shaped one, and if you can use this connection to get special items, etc., you can earn bonuses by carrying it over.

I stole... some of the family heirlooms I recovered were apparently more special than the King of Time. That's why I was invited to the Imperial Castle. Honestly, this was lucky. And I thought at this time.

So the reward offered to the king was gold or status.

It doesn't make sense to get a status or anything, but at this point, I already had no choice but to get paid.

That's why I've asked for your status to try.

Then I've sworn allegiance to the king instead.

Pretty much a scam, don't you think?

What do you mean you're supposed to be thankful in the first place, but you need more in return?

Well, but I can't help what I said.

At this point I had no idea what the act of swearing allegiance meant. So I nodded.

And I got it.

Items needed for reincarnation into Noble Human. "Pale blood."

The moment I received this item, I knew how to use it.

According to the king's story, some items called artifacts or something have that feature. I mean, it's a manual.

And at this time, I found out another thing.

It's that noble family heirloom I brought back.

Items that caused you to be invited to the royal castle. That's an artifact.

And most likely, the money you were supposed to get here would be a stopping fee.

Then there must be something that binds my mouth to the loyalty and loyalty required when choosing my position without choosing it.

I served the received pale blood to the inventory and harmed myself on the spot before anything was done.

It was the Chamber of Commerce that I started because of, but I can't help it if this happens.

Lispawn in the chambers of the Chamber of Commerce, I decided to put all the Chamber's vaults in the inventory before the Chamber of Commerce was taken over by the country and make him disappear.

After all, he snuck into the nobleman's mansion, where he followed the crossing to the royal castle before making his appearance disappear, and kept his family treasures and possessions uprooted. Well, that's a nuisance charge.

And welcome open beta, no, you're already early-access.

I'm in trouble all the time. Anyway, the initial spawn position is random. But it wasn't a rush, and we traveled to the vicinity of Wangdu as we earned some experience or anything. At this time, all the money I earned at the end of my experience was used to prioritize travel. It's only a lot of money anyway. I used a carriage or something on Wang Du, and I wonder if it was about two days.

So I recovered the money I had been saving and used the pale blood we had hidden together to become Noble Human.

This is how I was reincarnated. And this is how I became lord of this city, but, well, this is a short story.

At the time, the city had no rulers, the point being that it was a royal jurisdiction. The castle is cool, and I want this city. Well, there's another reason I don't have to tell you that because they haven't asked me that.

Even at this time, in fact, some years had jumped since the last test.

According to my research, the noblemen I took care of fell down at that time, and their blood muscles were cut off. I was just showing loyalty to the royal family to the end or something, and somehow the falling story was conveyed as a beauty story. But there is no territory that can be given to aristocrats who have lost all their possessions and whose genealogy has been interrupted. The territory that the nobleman had was occupied by another nobleman.

I was wondering if I could use this.

Apparently, a race called Noble Human only comes from marriages between Noble Human beings.

All the hybrids born of mating with humans become humans.

So at this point, without a history of using royally controlled "pale blood," which suddenly existed, I was definitely a direct aristocrat somewhere, but in the position that its identity was unknown.

The "pale blood" I once gave was apparently to disappear with the thief's body, and either way, there is no evidence that I used it at this time. I couldn't even suspect that.

That's why I made my name out. He said it was the direct line of that fallen aristocrat. This dagger with the family crest that I had is more proof than anything else.

This dagger is, of course, the last thing I've borrowed from that aristocrat, but the royal family had no idea when this dagger itself was lost. That's why it couldn't be linked to the theft noise then.

To some extent, I was certain that this would be something like that. No matter how much I trust the minister, there's no way the royal family manages the family's finances. Even with that, you will be cramped and eventually lose your loyalty as well. It's always a matter of money to break a relationship between people. Mostly.

That's why I was sunny and recognized as a rebuilding nobleman. But the territory once belonged to others. You can't scratch that from the side because it's supposed to be mine.

That's why I asked the royal family.

I was wondering if you could give me one city in your direct jurisdiction. "

"... it's a long time"

"... I'm sorry, I won't ask you anything extra anymore.

But I don't know, you look so much like a sister... Especially where it's just a hit and it's a little out. "

"... doesn't look alike?

"No, they look alike. The look is the same, the behavior is the same, and so are the nasty words and actions.

You can't normally point to a creature that looks like a human being and say "bastard." "Collaborators" and vectors are the opposite, but they smell the same.

And you look just like a super fun face when you explain it. "

"I was wondering if it was a long story, but it seemed like you enjoyed it more than anything."

"Were you listening to my line?

"So was it nice talking about full body armor next?

"I don't want it"

"I don't need it."

"So I guess we're talking tutorial AI"

"Next, the M.O. that led me here. And how was I going to take him down? And that magically resistant armor thing."

"I mean, Rae, have you forgotten the fundamentals? On purpose?"

"What?

"That's what I came here for! Weren't you looking for the whereabouts of Hills' royalty?

"Oh, my God, is that so? Fine, then I'll explain it all to you next time. Longer, though."

"Eh."

"Eh."
