Sword of the Philosopher
Path to the Star God
I closed my eyes and fell asleep instantly - I was in a strange place.I thought it was a wise man's dream because his consciousness was clear, but it wasn't.
It's a plain somewhere... just a terrible, murderous landscape stretching from one side to another.There is a beautiful blue sky above, but there are no clouds, and when you look at it, it feels like you are being sucked in.
When I turned my gaze back to the plain, there was a person in front of me.This figure is familiar to me many times.
"What do you want?"
You don't have to say that, do you?
The opponent is my own form... a star god I've met before in reality.
More precisely, it's like a kakura away from the main body deep in the stars... but this time in a dream.So you're saying he showed up because he was involved with Loden and the artificial Star God?
"Well, that's fine." I'm just telling you what I need to do, and I'm just gonna leave right away. "
"What can I do for you...?"
"That's right. I thought you might want to know the end of the matter."What was a man named Loden trying to do? "
You're going to tell me that...? Star God shrugged his shoulders against me as I frowned.
"I'll tell you what, it's not good intentions."Rather, I just want to see how this fact makes me react. ”
That's a bad hobby.
"You know that I am that kind of person, don't you?"
I look at my opponent silently.Drawing a sword doesn't make any sense at all.I sighed in amazement,
"Just say it and let me go."As far as I'm concerned, I want to be able to sleep better than just napping.
"It's my mom... well, that's fine."Simply put, there was a way to make my main body appear in this kingdom... rather than in this kingdom. "
Way...? Star God kept explaining, wondering inside.
"In other words, there are two ways to oppose the star god."One is to physically enter the underground and confront it.The other is to bring the star god to the earth.The former is impossible if the position of the main unit is not known in the first place.Loden naturally didn't know, so he had no choice but to choose the latter. "
"Is that... taking advantage of the turmoil in this country?"
"That's right. The difference between Loden and you is the amount of knowledge you had when you were reincarnated."He knew the process leading up to the collapse of the world.I didn't know about you. "
"The turmoil in this country... is only related to Princess Emena, and only at the beginning."
“Yes, if you knew the details, the fight would have been simpler.”
"I don't know," I murmured in my heart.You might as well have known everything.However, there were other reincarnators on this continent besides me.Moreover, since the existence of Loden was an exception in the story, if we intervened deeply in the story, we might have been found.
But I didn't know the story, so I acted as hard as I could to hide my existence.As a result, it was decided to defeat Loden's operation.
"In any case, you defeated Loden... but what he was doing was creating that path."The power to sleep in the King's City... unlocks the door that draws the way.It was camouflage that aimed at important facilities, and the mausoleum in the Royal Castle and the park were its main orders. "
Oh, I see. That place was one of our targets, after all the strength we've been putting into it.
"The park and the mausoleum... Originally, the disturbances in the country caused problems between the two, and inspired the opening of the road.In the future, no matter how you do it... right, I wonder if the door opened with some kind of beat. "
“That's what prompted you to show up on the ground.”
That's it.
A star god who speaks vaguely... because he has the same face as me, it's very creepy.
"The existence that mimics me is one way to force open the door... by creating something similar on the ground, I tried to connect the path by physical interference"
Whatever you do, I'm sorry the capital was safe.
I'm glad that no one sacrificed anything in this battle.
"I mean, there's no longer any chance that you'll come out of this place."
"That's right... but you're on guard."There are other possibilities than the existence of a path that is invisible. "
It was a picture. But I kept listening to the other person's words without making a face.
"Well, I'm free to worry about it, so let's not say anything... but the road was originally in this king's city."Rather, we should say that a town has been built in a place where there are roads.There are so many places in the world. ”
A star god with a meaningful smile.This guy... he keeps talking in anticipation of how I'll react.
"The battle on this continent is definitely your victory."After that, if we get rid of what Loden left behind, we'll be done with it... though.What are you gonna do from there?Are you coming to the showdown with me?However, it will ultimately make the way. "
I look to the star gods."Because it's my own figure, it looks like a mirror..."
“The question is, where do we do it?I gave you a hint. [M]To fight me... you have to come underground or make your own path. "
"I see......"
In other words, I want to tell you information and see what choices to make.It's fun to prepare to fight in this place, and it's fun to look around for something completely different.I'm curious to see what it's like to go underground.
And he asks if he can do the same thing that Loden was trying to do.Compared to his technique, it won't be rude, but if you use the road in this kingdom, the people of the kingdom will be in danger.
I don't know what happened immediately after the Star God came down... but I can expect this kingdom to be in a pretty miserable state.
"... are you going to wander around looking for me, or are you going to settle this place?"
And Star God smiles at me and talks.
"I'm looking forward to it... what choice will you make?"Well, before I can do that, I have to break my spurious stuff- "
