The tone of voice echoing in Junko's head was clearly not the same as last time.
(Unlike Root Man the other day?
'Yes. Those who come into contact have decided last time and this time in the lottery'
(Draw, is there something going on?
'Simply because I want to taste the precious experience of contact with aliens. The same person went on twice. Then it's cheating, so I decided to draw again for the second time'
(I see -)
I think he's a stray, humane alien, and he smiles at Junko.
(So, why have you been in contact?
"I'm honestly surprised that that white fuzzy lovely found out who we are. We were listening to your earlier conversation, but we were aware of their presence when they interfered with us."
I laugh at the expression of a nice white fuzzy again.
"Your conversation today was something that even the Root Man couldn't overlook."
(Hmm? Is it inconvenient for Milk to take you to the lab?
'That's the other way around. I'd rather you do that. As long as the inn is doomed, I'll be happy. The problem is, that white hair-- it's Mr. Milk.'
The tone of my voice makes me wonder.
'Didn't Mr. Milk say you could get more than one sumble? And that includes us. "
(Uh, I see)
'That's not the only thing I'm having trouble with...'
Root Man who will have a slightly tired voice.
"Mr. Milk is trying to figure out how to form a network of spiritual worlds for our roots. For that reason, there is a spectacular storm of noise blowing through our world as we continue to interfere forcefully. What's wrong is that the person who is interfering doesn't know how we are. He doesn't seem to recognize the noise that's the big problem for us, does he? Maybe it's the difference between animals and plants. '
Milk is still trying to gain knowledge from you.
'If there's anything we can do to help, we can help, so I need you to stop that Mr. Milk. I also asked those who are interfering, but Mr. Milk doesn't seem to listen to me... Based on your conversation earlier, I thought maybe Mr. Milk himself would not listen to me, and this is how I came to ask you. "
(True, I'm in trouble for this milk -)
Junko laughs again at the idea of annoying aliens.
(You can't fight it there, can you?
'The Root Man has taken a lot of measures to deal with the strong wind opponents who blow inns and weekends, but no one else could call them natural enemies. An alien appeared there and vandalized our dwelling directly in an unexpected way... even if we build that countermeasure, it's going to be devastating before it's finished...'
Junko was convinced by Root Man's words. Whatever the superorganism, it means we can't deal with unexpected disasters right away.
(I didn't even say I would stop the milk...... We'll be home in five days or a week anyway, but until then, if we leave it alone, it won't taste good?
'Oh, did you? But it's still tight to be in this state for a week. "
(If it was a life-threatening thing, I think they'd stop the milk, too. Hey.)
'It's not as life-threatening as it sounds...'
(Well, when I get a chance... Don't expect too much)
Honestly, it's in the same condition as it is in conflict with milk at the moment, and I expect it to collide soon.
'Oh, yeah. If you have any questions from there, I'll take them.'
(Wasn't it your policy not to teach -?
'Cause I can't say that anymore. In addition to begging for cooperation, we must do our part in good faith, and exchanging information may help us understand what we can do for both sides. The only thing you can give us is information. Of course, I can't tell you how Mr. Milk wants to know that those stars are more homogeneous to us. We don't know that either. "
(Is Milk trying to forcefully find it -)
From Root Man's remarks it was possible to deduce the further intentions of the milk. Even Junko has the lust and the strength.
(Then I'll ask you a question. When you see boarding houses, animals flee quickly, but why do you miss the Lord of Beasts?
'It's not that deep a reason. Are you saying that only strong winds that blow over the weekend are super attractive? It's a tremendous force to push parasitic plant interference away and put wild organisms under control. It's not effective on all creatures, and it doesn't seem to work on organisms parasitized by lower root people.'
(Hmm. So, what's the difference between a strong wind blowing over the weekend and a boarding house? How was the latter born?
'As the previous Root Man told us, the identity of the strong wind blowing over the weekend is boarding house that takes in the super evolved Arlaune'
(No... it's my first ear...)
'Is that it? Was it? In the midst of Arlaune's fight against boarding houses for further evolution, a particularly mighty evolutionary individual emerged. The super individual kicked the boarding house one after the other, but at the end of the day, he was defeated and turned into a boarding house nursery, so a hell of an individual was born on the boarding house side.'
(The system of fighting the stronger to become stronger and the stronger to give birth to the stronger is the same on this planet.)
On the other hand, Junko knows that evolution that makes the absolutely powerful appear and become stable brings stalemate, and that a stable world stagnates without progress.
In other words, whatever civilization is on this planet, the weak predators among creatures can be seen as antagonizing. The strong winds blowing over the weekend, the boarding houses, the Arlaune, and the Root Man, it feels that the difference in power is not so far apart as they fight. It considered that the strength of the individual was also to such an extent that it could be covered by the nature of numbers and abilities.
'That's right. It's exactly what you're thinking right now. You shouldn't ask for perfection.'
A rootsman who read Junko's thoughts said with no heart or a sense of self-derision.
"As an organism, Root Man will be better than you in many ways. Intelligence, vitality, personality, presence or absence of superordinary powers, etc. Therefore, there was no quarrel within the same race, no creation at the end of trial and error, and no lovely culture, as varied as your stars, was ever formed."
(I mean, you guys too... well, naturally if you think about it -)
"Yeah, we're sneaking up on your stars, too, as you guys came here to investigate. That's quite a few, too. No one will be aware of the little bug enough to ride at the tip of your finger, as it dwelled in spirit and crept through the gate. And because we can instantly share all the information, we've learned a lot about the culture and history of Japan, the planet Earth. Cultures in other countries are also learning admirably. And of course, we do biological and geological research. '
At the point of sharing information in an instant, I can certainly ask that it is a superorganism far beyond the earthlings.
But we lacked the creativity to nurture civilization. You are flawed and weak, but you have been able to grow a wide variety of civilizations by scratching your feet and getting lost. I'm very jealous, to be honest, but that doesn't mean we can do the same thing. '
Weakness and incompleteness nurture the world. I seek strength because I am weak. I try to gain knowledge and insight and be smart because I don't know anything and I'm stupid. It is a world overflowing with ugliness that makes beauty more valuable and the pursuit of beauty.
Junko, who has lived and seen the world for over a thousand years, knows it well. If the stranded and vulnerable don't get their hands on it, they will also visit the Yukooka Laboratory as an experimental platform. They are causing a great deal of excitement to the world.
Junko recalls that Arlaune used to say something similar at the Daytime Joint Research Facility.
(Why do the boarding houses and plants conflict?
Junko asked, remembering that Quo would have stripped him of his animosity and hatred.
"It's only a matter of the thoughts of the Innkeepers... They can't allow intelligent plants to parasitize animals, bring spirits to and from them, or encourage evolution. In addition to that, the very feud that follows with the cotton coalition may be calling for a chain of hatred and continuing feuds. If the other side doesn't attack, the Root Man won't argue. Subordinate Roots - Except those whom you call Arlaune '
(Naru, so at the end of the day... it's about Arlaune attacking you, and it has nothing to do with that, right?
'There isn't. I know he was attacking you.'
(Okay. The milk thing...... I'll try my best. If only we could win)
"Nice to meet you"
I'm out of conversation with Root Man.
"Jun Sister, were you communicating with someone named Root Man again?"
Midori called out to Junko, who was confused.
"Yeah, he wants it to stop because the milk is annoying."
"What's the price?
"Am I supposed to satisfy my curiosity?
Truly asked, Junko answered vaguely.
