Murabito Desu Ga Nani Ka?

Reunion with the Goddess Previous

White monochrome corridor.

Leave everyone in the Dragon Nation at the entrance and just push through the square aisle.

So we opened the door and...

- Is this...?

There was a garden there.

The blue sky expands even though it is indoors, and clouds like cotton candy float with potpourries.

A gentle breeze tickles your cheeks, meadows and small hills where birds and butterflies dance.

As we stretched out the hill where the large trees were growing at the top, a wooden table and tea set were placed there.

And sitting in a chair and gracefully mouthing tea...

"You're just a nice to meet you. Welcome to the Garden of Eden, ladies and gentlemen. I know you don't need an explanation for me, but I'm a goddess entrusted with the stewardship of this world."

"Eden's... garden?

When I said that, the goddess laughed mocking herself.

"No, the very world you live in is a God-controlled boxyard, and can you say Eden?"

We live within a limited habitat and are regulated in population and civilization by the system.

Once, too much advanced civilization led to environmental pollution of this planet itself, eventually reaching the limits of its load… mankind reset its own civilization before destroying itself.

But you should have pleaded guilty to yourself being evil, but we're alive.

The last remaining human conscience… No, it is brought to life by the ego of God, conditioned by the adjustment of the progression of civilization against the backdrop of an absolute violent device…

That becomes the truth of the Garden of Eden, where we live.

And so the goddess turned her gaze to Lute and laughed nicely.

"Well, shall we start the tea party?

Everyone sat at a wooden table and was behaved tea by the goddess.

Being alert to poison and not mouthing, Lute laughed and said, 'If they're going to kill us over there, they're wiping us out in a few minutes,' so I'll put my mouth on the tea.

Ah, delicious.

It tasted gentle and delicious, which I had never drank before and could not serve any fine tea leaves.

"So what are you going to do?

"You suddenly cut in from the big upper section. Well, it's a plan the Dragon Kings have been thinking about..."

Lute laughed, but looked straight at the goddess.

"We, the human race, are trying to disarm."

So the goddess broke her smile and opened her eyes wide.

"Are you...?

"Oh, it means abandoning the nanomachine. When the system adjusts the population, it uses nanomachines to count the number of lives, right? If it were, we wouldn't be watched by the system with the population"

"But if we do that, man will not benefit from his status… he will not be able to stand up to demons, and he will not wait for the adjustment of the outside gods and catastrophes - humanity will be eliminated"

So Lute nodded loudly.

"Once Adam and Eve ate the fruit of wisdom and were thrown out of the Eden of rest and into the wide walking wilderness of the hungry beast?

"Yeah, according to the inheritance..."

"But I got freedom instead of danger. And mankind remembered fire, built stoneware, exterminated foreign enemies, built houses with their own hands, and gained rest."

……

"I just do the same thing. Standing up to demons regardless of status, we get freedom."

That's how the goddess laughed in disdain.

"This is another rough cure."

"Or get on Moses' proposal and kill them all and reset them once... and live in a controlled boxyard again? Damn, that's a bad choice. So, what do you say?

"Whether I cooperate with the proposal or not, it's possible."

"Then..."

So the goddess said, "Piscilli."

"But it's a matter for all mankind. If it's up to you personally… it's just arrogance. Ryuto Iijima...... have you gained strength and thought of it? You weren't supposed to be such an arrogant person when you wanted to give flowers to Miss Cordelia for your crop cultivation skills."

Lute nodded without any evil.

"Oh, you must be arrogant"

"If that's what you think, weigh yourself in. This is a problem that many reincarnated people have ever faced and have concluded to be on hold."

So Lute shook his head left and right.

"I've been thinking about it. Even if we stop Moses here, population growth will not stop. There's a catastrophe, and even if we stop it, now it's God outside... and that's what's gonna uproot everything."

"... wouldn't it be nice if we didn't stop the catastrophe"

"Ten percent or twenty percent of the population is gonna die, right? How many orphans do you think the world is going to have in a big panic and misfortune? We have the power to stop... you think we can overlook the crisis in front of us?

……

"So, in the first place, I'm not a brave man saving the world. That's not Gala."

That's how Lute has turned his face to me.

"So what do you think? Cordelia? Your decision will turn my opinion upside down."

Huh?

Are you going to talk to me at this time?

"A little lute? You mean let me decide on such an important story?

"As I said earlier, I'm not a brave man to save the world. I just want to protect the irreplaceable things around me."

So - and Lute has sent his gaze not only to me, but to Lilith, Haru, and Guildmaster to all of Master Abe.

"Decide for all of you. If there's unanimity, I'm going to ride the dragon king's proposed stat disarming. Even for the Dragon King and his delightful companions, we can't decide if this is the right way. So even as our side, it's still... shaking."

I see.

So you're talking about following everyone close to Lute.

"No, a little lute? But what do you think?

"If you didn't think independence from the old world system was wrong, you wouldn't be here."

Oh, well, I guess so.

"... what does Lilith think?

Lilith nodded just because it was a stupid question.

"I follow Lute. Because Lute is the only reason I live"

He was... he was like this.

Next I turned my gaze to the brunette witch.

"... What about Haru?

"Um... the hard part is I really don't get it. But... I, I... think you're right, Lute. Lute, not because you said so... but because I think Mitsubishi Koharu is an individual."

"What's the reason?

"I'm saying this when I'm unloading Mr. Takemikazchi." Damn, ancient ghosts together......! Are you a god to human habits? You treat people like livestock... you bastards who come to Tosaka! 'What... "

Well, Haru, who is trans state, is a taka from Ikekedondon.

Though usually quiet......

"Mr. Guildmaster and... what about Old Master Abe?

"Ha, are you two together?"

I unwittingly bowed my head to Mr. Guildmaster, who laughed all the time.

"Oh, I'm sorry. It wasn't that kind of wacky..."

"No, no, I mean good. Hey, Cordelia, give in? I made up my mind a long time ago. That's how I decided to follow Mr. Lute for the rest of his life."

Is this man also a Lute believer......

Well, that sounds like it, doesn't it?

"Where's Old Master Abe?

"The eagles are... old and short, so there is no difference in the decisions of the young. Even if that happens, I'm concerned about the path taken by Miss Liz's generation, but it means that the intermission will continue loosely..."

This guy sounds most decent.

But, well... I don't think I can conclude that I've thought about it.

I'm not even that smart at first.

Then I guess I'll just have to honestly follow my emotions.

"So, what do you think, Cordelia?

"... you've decided."

Yeah, since I heard this story, I've decided my stance from the start.

So I endured Master Liu Hai's hell to face all irrationality.

Yeah, analogy - even if you've lost your status and you're no longer a brave man...

"We didn't ask for management or coordination. I don't want it!

That's how I glanced at the goddess.

"He's an extra favor!
