It Seems I Came to Another World, Now What Should I Do

Episode 632: What's Demonization? No?

While I explain to Lederisa how to eat, I cut the dried rice and peel it and put it in my mouth. I feel bliss as that unique fragrance slips through my nose, even as my cheeks ache over the concentrated flavor. The strong flavour, aged in the sun, and the natural saltiness blend together, where the sweetness of the fat is added to ravage the tongue. It's seasonal and I'm very happy. Lederisa also cut it apart, lost in the use of forks and knives, and the moment she cheeks on her mouth, she grins.

"I'm happy...... Yes, I'm happy."

Realistic, strong words.

"I..."

"Yes?"

"I thought that the creatures whose nuclei arise are demons and cannot communicate this way. But this is how I can talk to dragons. I wonder why."

"Oh, I see. Humans, demons and the part I told you about earlier, right? Was I a hacker? I was taught by God when I became interferable with the system."

Lederisa leans the cup in a dust.

"Magnetic compatible organism test no. 1. The product commonly known as the Dragon Project is our family."

"That's all you hear, it feels like something's been experimented with and you don't like it"

When told so, Lederisa smiles.

"It was originally the intention of the gods to use magic vegetables full of this world to say that they constitute complete organisms that can live simply by circulating energy. The project was half successful, half unsuccessful."

"Success... failure...?

I don't know, I feel a wrinkle leaning against my eyebrow root, and I ask again.

"A life-form called a dragon was born, but the magic elements of natural absorption cannot operate alone. If you don't consume the nucleus regularly at some point in time and use it for expansion and maintenance, you're dead. You can't live with as much magic as you can absorb completely on your own."

"I see...... Near unlimited success, but is it a failure..."

"No. The real failure is that there was a bug in the property conversion program used for the dragon project."

"Bug......?

Mm-hmm. It's easy to understand by design, but I'm wondering what the expression actually is.

"Yes. The truth is that once this system was complete, it was going to be spread to other races. The part of its land is present in the properties of every life form. However, because of the sweet definition and validation of the requirements there, living in a dark magic vegetable made it possible for a nuclear-free creature to adapt to the magic vegetable to produce a nucleus. This is what you call demonization. In doing so, bugs become apparent when configuring the processes of production of nuclei and absorption, circulation and utilization of magic vegetables that are not supposed to work in the body. Property disturbances and brain structure mutations. This creates a disconnect in communication."

Hmm. Alecta said demonization is a phenomenon whose properties change, but is that a bug in building errors...... You wouldn't have understood it if it was explained in detail at that point, and I guess it was fine with the detailed explanation.

"Does that mean that even humans, living in dark places of magic for long periods of time, are demonized?

"No. I've hit the patch several times. A system is put together to link magic vegetables to consciousness in the brain, to degenerate, to exploit. This is linked to the magic system in this world. It's not a form of making nuclei, it's a form of making the brain itself a generator of magic and magic. That way, the emission process moves automatically before the bug becomes apparent. Thank you for the patch."

Hmm. Turning magic into magic goes naturally, but if we don't do anything, we'll drain it as it is. Mages convert magic into events, so the remnants of magic accumulate in their brains. So an excessive return occurs. Also, when I go to a dark place of magic, I convert it from magic to magic on my own, so 'surgical control' grows. I'm convinced.

"But it also exists to call it a human demon..."

"Yes, it is a remnant of demonization before past patches were adapted. Didn't God say? He said he didn't love you very much. Fundamentally, organisms are derived from the same roots. So God turns his love to everything"

I don't know if this is information about history or knowledge gained as a hacker, but it's worth meeting even if I could just hear these words. At least he doesn't have to fear demonization even if the magic vegetables operate in a dark place. Also, in terms of communication, the communication protocol has been transformed in the first place, so I guess it is something that cannot be communicated.

"So why does demonization occur besides humans?

"God is also competent, but not omnipotent. Because it's enough to rely on hackers. Still, there are subjects who can't hit the patch. Patches may hit in the future, but the current situation should be being addressed as a priority by organisms with large and high brain capacity. Creatures with large brain capacity will have a larger scale of processing, so the impact will be greater for that matter. That's why it must have been a high priority."

Lederisa stabs herself with a fork, puts it in her mouth, and suppresses both cheeks with a knife. Tilt the cup tightly, so pour the extra into the cup.

"This is going to be... long..."

"No. I wasn't expecting this kind of story to make sense, so I'm surprised and enjoying it. I just wonder if we should decide on another opportunity rather than talk long enough."

With a look like bliss, Lederisa says.

"Right. Oh, one more point. If you don't mind."

Yes, I forgot.

"Yes."

"Can a relative have one or two human beings on board? Later, I want to know if I can communicate at that time and how much food, nucleus, I need to maintain."

"Right...... If you'd be my friend, I'd be happy to. Flying in the sky is flying by magic, so is it a heavy outfit? You can fly with one person in that condition. The dragon's nucleus fits the standard that was originally designed, so it has a higher output than the normal nucleus. So even when converted to wind magic, there isn't much L.A. flying through the sky in small exercises. When it comes to communication, you can manage it if you're over a hundred. She's my daughter and she's a hundred and seven years old. Until then, we will live on instinct or according to the Lord's instructions, as it is generally around the age of one hundred that our self establishes. As far as food is concerned, as long as we consume as many as ten nuclei a year of creatures that humans call slime. I don't regard others as food, like humans. I will protect myself, and I may take in the magic and magic of the things I've handled, but I think that's a convincing story if I think it's the same as when I hunted."

Hmm, more energy-saving design than I thought.

"It would be nice to keep your daughter, but I was wondering if this one would have a little less advantages. I'll have the nucleus ready, so is it possible to borrow a dozen interested dragons?

"Yes. It has no particular purpose, it's just life that runs through the sky. In the form of dragons, you don't need clothes, and your residence is the extent you need it when you give birth. I basically have extra time because I barely need a meal either. If you can come down occasionally and communicate and get a meal too, it will be more exciting, so I think you'll be happy."

Ooh, I can make a literal dragon cavalry!? Dragon, get it!!
