Episode 14.5 Record (Rogue)

□Winter Orb - 1 day ago

The evening before the war began in the far western kingdom.

The mayor of Winter Orb, Spectral Rogue, had spoken to his daughter in his office.

"Mr. Centauri contacted me. They will arrive tomorrow....... As I told you before, Eileen will go to the Yellow River with Her Highness the Azure Dragon."

Yes.

Aileen, still a girl, accepts her father's order to travel far abroad.

There is also an exchange with Prince Daiichi of Silver Dragon, and it is not a lie that she herself is interested in the history and culture of the Yellow River.

However, the real purpose of her journey is not to study abroad.

“I'm going to entrust Eileen with evidence of a plot we've gathered across the Yellow River and Cardina. After giving it to His Highness the Silver Dragon, you will be asked to explore the conspiracies around him."

Naturally, it is a task that can be entrusted to a top-notch agent.

No matter what you think, it's not okay to leave it to a girl who hasn't even taken a job.

But Mayor Rogue ordered, and Eileen nodded.

It's like she can do it... No, she's the only one who can do it.

"... the Chancellor's conspiracy has spread to many countries. With regard to the Yellow River, he was assisting a criminal organization, the Mirage. Of course, while pinching a few others to make sure you don't know. The other day, I destroyed the Cardina branch of the" Mirage "... I read that the Yellow River destroyed the organization, so I must have destroyed it first with an alibi. If the chairman can read that much (...)"

The chairman reads the future.

Mayor Rogue has made it clear that it is rumored inside and outside of Cardina.

Not at the level of being sharp or visionary, but as' something like that '.

"The chairman can wage a conspiracy without touching it like a domino knockout." And face to face behaves like an ambassador of order and peace. By responding to criminal organizations and incidents, and by stopping the empire that has fallen into the hands of the invading state. "

It's like conspiracy theory.

But there is no color of madness or blind faith in his eyes.

His eyes were convinced with a certain intelligence.

"The chairman reads the future. Like our past vision."

All of this was due to the power he possessed.

Some Tian tribes... especially the Legendary ones are born with a job-independent power.

It varies from flying to diving into the water.

And the Rogue Mayor's Rogue family is not unique in appearance, but it is a kind of thing.

His clan... the Rogue family is a descendant of a special tribe that once existed.

From time to time, as an ancestor, a child is born with that power.

He and his daughter are one of them.

Its power is the ability to read the records (logs) inherited from the world itself through the substances it touches.

In the words of the master, he possesses something called "psychometry".

I noticed the plot of the chairman of Future Vision because he has the power of past vision.

“However, the future vision of the chairman is also limited so that we can only read the past from what we have touched.”

In doing so, Mayor Rogue took out the glasses that were affixed to [Discernment].

I look at my hand and my daughter who are fitted with gloves, a safety device to avoid inadvertently reading the past.

In Discovery , there was no job notation on either side, and the level was zero.

"The chairman can only indirectly read a future involving a creature that has no... level." The system that governs the information in this world, including the job, gathers the information of the other person connected to the Archetype System and calculates the future. ”

That is also information that has been convinced by the ability to see in the past.

In the Chancellor's conspiracy, the stuffing was sweet... There were several patterns that were successful but missed.

What they have in common is when someone who doesn't have a job is involved.

That said, it's not easy to change destiny without having the level... helpless presence.

Often children, the future is not greatly shaken.

The exception was.

It doesn't exist in this world, and when it does, it doesn't have a job.

However, even if there is no job, it has the power of < Embrio >.

Therefore, after the increase of the < Master >, the future vision of the chairman was greatly reduced in accuracy.

Even now that we have increased the accuracy together, it is not complete.

For example, the scenario of the collapse of the kingdom from the Imperial Liliana assassination is blocked by Ray Stirling, who was new to the world and had no job in the world.

That has changed the future a lot.

If Liliana and Miliane had been assassinated by the Master.

The operation of the Empire will be a chain success.

And based on the chairman's guide to the Wangcheng siege terror.

Altimia A. Alter would never have teamed up with Master.

And he must have lost his life somewhere.

The user of the Holy Sword who could defeat [Evil God]...... the chairman's biggest blocker (......) was dead.

That is the biggest failure (...) of the chairman's plan at the moment.

And if you don't have a job but have the power, you can change your destiny.

"The chair's prediction deteriorates in situations where no job is involved. That's why I abandoned all my jobs and asked for the power to replace them."

In this world, throwing away jobs, which are lifelines, has great significance.

Without Job, there is nothing to protect Tian in this world of harsh ecosystems.

That's why the chancellor's vision of the future is high on many occasions...... and low on Winter Orbs.

"My men missed the job, and Aileen hasn't taken up yet." Mr. Speaker, we don't see it. "

You can see it indirectly through the people in the city who took the job.

However, it lacks the information to take care of the root part. The vision of the future will also lack great accuracy.

"However, he sees us as dangerous because he can't see." Perhaps tomorrow's encounter with the Yellow River... will aim for something. Hands that will confirm the unseen future with the desired result. "

Mayor Rogue's guess is correct.

Cardina puts in a lot of force to succeed in the drama around the Winter Orb, which has no future in sight.

Multiple and quasi-combat-type masters.

Sealed with Winter Orb beads.

If you can't make the drawing surface you want with Domino's defeat, just say you can directly defeat it and draw it.

"That's why I entrust the key to Eileen." Overcoming our unseen future, the key to stopping the end of the world (...) with the [Evil God] and [End] is the chairman's plan. "

Yes, Father.

He is aware that he is carrying something too heavy against his still young daughter.

However, only the Rogues can counter the Future Vision and read the roots of the Chancellor's stretched conspiracy.

"... I'm sorry."

“No, Father, it's our job to connect the future of the world.”

Connecting the future with past vision, blocking future vision that seeks to erase the future.

I was determined that that was our role.

Then Eileen told her father her will and left the office.

…………

Mayor Rogue leaned down deeply and laid his hand on the deep face of the wrinkle.

The color that seems to be eating twice as old as its actual age is the effect of past vision.

Is it due to mental fatigue that sees a lot of the past, or is it due to recoil that uses supernatural force? His physical age was much older than his real age.

Still, both eyes with determination do not wobble.

Even if tomorrow were to be the last part of my life with my daughter, I have already chosen my own future.

There is not much that can be done in the world anymore, nor in my daughter.

"Still..."

"... ask about Eileen."

In the corner of the office...... he bowed his head to the person (......) who was present from the beginning.

…………

The man also nodded after receiving his words.

◇◇◇

□Winter Orb - Mayor's House

After the Laputa with Eileen left, the Winter Orbs were in a mess.

Someone liberated Husansheng .

Too much of an enemy to be a Winter Orb.

In addition, the chairman directly certifies the enemy state.

"... we're in the way, aren't we?"

Mayor Rogue clenches his fists in his office.

I don't intend to end this situation with the assassination of the Mayor or the seizure of the Ruins.

Cardina was obviously a calculus for destroying the Winter Orbs.

"The only information that could be read from the beads was the information from when they became beads. If it was so dangerous, I'd have done it sooner... no, there was nothing I could do about it."

The Mayor of Rogue stares at his hand and regrets that he has come to this situation.

"But for now, I should say that I was rather lucky that it wasn't repaired..."

Emergency reports from various places are still being delivered to the office.

Including the information that the inhabitants and the Powered Suit were being taken as enemy forces.

If even the vast arsenal of internal weapons had been taken from the servants, the Winter Orb would have been a global crisis.

Therefore, it was necessary to close the [Ruins] first so that [Husan Shen] would never enter.

……

The door of the office suddenly opened.

What?

No one is inside or outside the open door.

But nature and the door are closed,

- There was a man standing there.



Although it was a man, it was a person with a face that could be described as "beautiful".

< Master >, and on the left hand side, there is a crest depicting the "mask and wings with different facial expressions on the left and right."

Mayor of Spectral Rogue, right?

"... oh. You must be the Master of Cardina."

Yeah.

After all, the Mayor of Rogue sucked his spit.

I realized that I was sending an assassin directly to myself while I was making a mess all over the city.

"... Listen, the chairman has something to hide from you."

However, I thought that if we talked without questioning and without killing, there was still room to connect the future.

There is room for words to be exhausted.

Let's hear it.

In doing so, the opposing Master accepted the words of Mayor Rogue.

I can see a certain hope in not being killed without asking questions.

"Thank you."

So, what's the secret?

"You guys... are living in this world, or even playing with it." Without this world, we would be in trouble. But the real purpose of the chairmanship is to contradict it. "

The opponent's < Master > listens to him with his hands on his cheeks.

"The chairman has caused chaos in various parts of the world, increasing the number of dead, focusing his efforts on the [Evil God]... and awakening the ancient existence called the" "End" "and destroying the world."

…………

"It is only a pretence that we are moving for the benefit of this country. However, it was necessary to take the initiative in the midst of world chaos and retain the power of one's own hand in order to sustain the chaos until the end. But that shelter is not the only way to see Cortana's example."

It doesn't matter to the chair, such as Cardina's power and interests.

Until the world is destroyed... exactly until we are ready to destroy it.

That's why, once prepared, it doesn't matter what your national interests are, and it doesn't matter if you are hostile to many countries.

“I don't want the Winter Orb, which my family has been protecting, to perish in the world. Therefore, I would like to spread this truth and join forces with the Master to overthrow the Speaker who aims to destroy the world."

Mayor Rogue then lowers his head to the person who would have been asked to assassinate him.

"Please! If you're one of those people who cares about this world, you can help us!" Don't let that chairman fool you! "

There is no lie in the words of Mayor Rogue.

If you have the Truth and Truth, you will tell him the truth.

…………

listening to the story, the master nodded in silence.

"... yes. Many [masters] will agree with you." People who see this as another world, people who see this as a fun playground, they don't want this place to be lost. ”

It was the affirmation of Mayor Rogue's words.

"Well then...!"

“Yeah, me and you, too?”

The master smiled and offered his right hand to the mayor.

The color of the mayor, who was steep with relief and joy, also fades.

Then, in response to his right hand, he offered it to himself -- taking off his gloves in his usual habit.

And......

"---!?"

"--- Brand of Fallen Heaven (Lucifer)?"

It was overwritten (...) by each memory that looked at the person's past.

"Yes, that's Nakama."

…………

The same seal as the < Master > was engraved on the palm of the handshake, and Rogue's expression changed from relief to amazement... and changed into an expressionless expression.

There was no more... he (...).

"I'm sorry. If I hadn't been the one who told you, it might still have worked." Anyway, we (...) haven't seen the world as a playground. "

And...... Zachariah smiles bitterly and looks at what was Mayor Rogue.

"For us, this world is...... the 'piggy bank'." I break it because I have something that I can't take out without breaking it. That's all there is to it. "

While putting your fingertips on your chin, you mouth like a clown.

"Well, there are many things I want in this world." There are many things I'd like to take away, except for her. Including my Embrio. But I'm not greedy. The information of the future (...), by itself, the three of us (...) can do anything about the other world. "

Zachariah thinks of his true companions and giggles.

"To do that, I'm going to break the (...) cage that traps her." Huh? Isn't this the same as rescuing a captive heroin? "

After saying that, he smiled mischievously, and then suddenly erased his expression.

"I wonder if the overwriting is over." You know what to do, don't you? "

"Yes"

And the former Mayor of Rogue...... Zachariah's overwritten presence nodded briefly.

It doesn't resemble the Zachariah character... it's in line with his true personality and language, which doesn't make him a character.

So please prepare the videos and special guests.

What was Mayor Rogue nodded and went somewhere from the office at a speed and movement he couldn't have imagined before Job.

There is no man there who was trying to protect his city and the world anymore.

I was already turned into a pawn when I got rid of it.

[King of Quake] and [Camo King [King of Stealth], a handpiece of a man named Zachariah.

"Hey, hey." You've done your job here. I've sent all the operational lion faces to Yuuhu... I wonder what will happen to them. "

Zachariah cannot share information with the overridden presence in.

It overrides his personality, but because he acts autonomously.

Fully automatic operation that is not remotely operated with some conditions attached. Usually, "what happens if I send it in" can be taught from the future perspective of the chairman, but this time it can't be used either.

The rest depends on how the board moves.

"Speaking of which, I wonder what happened to Hugo." Looks like the plane was confiscated, and it might be dead by now. If that's the case, then it's pathetic. "

Zachariah mumbled with a sad expression, returning his heel.

"Well, that's fine. Let me take a good look at that too." Five Senses Camo (Full Stealth)?

So the man who created the Winter Orb's tragedy... disappeared into the air.
