Sword of the Philosopher
Destruction and Regeneration
I open my eyes all of a sudden.When I woke up from my dream, it was night.
I hear a laughing voice from somewhere.At dinner, I thought about the sight I had just seen... and got up.
As we headed to the cafeteria, all of our people gathered.Everyone opens their mouths, saying they're glad they're standing up for me.
Because of the atmosphere close to the banquet, I fell down and entered the circle about what I had dreamed.The day was calm... well, it was a lot of noise, so it wasn't calm at all, but I decided to spend it without any problems anyway.
Then the next day - Sophia and I went to the royal castle on behalf of the others.Meet with Princess Emena in the conference room to discuss the future.
"The town is fine for now."The Loden schemes and traps we were concerned about were not active at this time, and we were able to investigate them to some extent.Probably not a problem. "
"Did Lodden wake up?"
Emena nodded at my question,
"In some cases, you also provide information."
It's a lot more complicated than that.
"Was there something I thought about..."
Princess Emena seemed to think that there was still something.In fact, it is not strange to suspect that you will be caught within the assumption.
I just don't think so.Until I spit out all my strength... and I was trying to use my trump card--
"... Princess Emena, I need a favor."
What's the matter?
"I want to see Loden once and for all."It's not like I'm interrogating you..... "
Princess Emena nodded, knowing that she couldn't.
“Okay, I'll get ready.”
Is that okay?
I'm sure you'd like to get some information from Luon as well.
"Thank you... tell me about the information you want."I'll ask him later. "
Then I heard a lot from Princess Emena...... I had to move to see Roden.
The room I was supposed to discuss with Loden is in the basement of the castle.It was close to the prison... but first of all, it gave the prison itself magic power disabling, which prevented it from exercising its magic.
Besides him, the Reincarnate is also in jail, but in order to avoid using magic, a powerful disablement technique has been constructed compared to that activated throughout the town.Eventually, they will be sent to the right place... but until then, we will seal off the magic and capture it.
In one room, it was just me and Loden... I don't want to hear much about the stellar gods, and it was the consideration of Princess Emena.However, since Loden was handcuffed by a magic disable, it seemed like he was going to have a hard time moving.
He is quite quiet at the moment.The table in the middle of the room...... sitting in the chair there, he looked at me and sighed small.
What do you want with the losers?
“I heard you're giving me information, is that true?”
"It doesn't matter." In the first place, it's ridiculous if someone doesn't know what's going on. "
Well, I do think that while sitting in the chair opposite.No one would nod if it was said that this world would collapse at some point.
"Besides, since you're a loser, it's probably your job to entrust it to you."
"... to defeat the Star God, or..."
“I don't know how you do it, but I'm looking forward to winning.”
I talked like that with no expression... I mean, it's impossible, but it seemed like I was saying that.
"... then let me ask you a question. You created a miniature version of Star God... tell me about it."
If we just destroy it, we can do something with a simple attack.
“It's a theoretical field.How did you create it? "
...... Loden silenced a little before beginning to speak.I'll listen to it and take notes.
Honestly, I don't know about the professional content... but I'm sure you'll figure it out if you give Gulk and the others a note.
He talks all the time, and when I finish the record, I'll ask another question.
Have you ever encountered a star god?
“Several times, but it was only their interest that interfered.”
"Same as me..."
Have you encountered it before?
I have one. However, even though I know what I'm doing and I'm talking about the situation... I was talking about what you're doing.
"... it seems like it's going to be done by the star god"
Lodden murmured.
"You led a number of people to raid the capital."Without us, the operation would have been a success.In the meantime... if the turmoil in this country was in the scenario, you were secretly intervening to revive the Star God? "
"Yes, it is."
"Then from the arrival of the star gods, we can destroy the world and gain power... After that, the people who gained power will start fighting with each other."Not all of them had a purpose like yours, right? "
"I was going to think about it again after everything was over.If you become an enemy in the process of creating the world, defeat it.If we can work together, we can, for example, create a world of our own. "
"... I see. Honestly, I don't think we'll have a good future if we achieve our goal."
Is that why you kill each other inside of you?
"I'm sure that the people who have gained the power don't think about what kind of path to follow... everyone is trying to do their best for the world."
"Still, I had to do it.This was the only way the world could survive. "
Loden says, "Dare to break it, let it regenerate."Naturally, that doesn't restore the world.But it is at least one of the means by which mankind can survive.
"... do you really think you can win?"
Loden asks. I looked straight into my eyes and asked suspiciously.
“Honestly, I can only say I don't know.”
I replied, shrugging my shoulders.
"It's just that... I might tilt my head in this way, but I... no, we're qualified to fight Star God."That's what I'm proud of. "
Loden fell silent on the words.However, if we were serious... it seemed that we were getting that much power, and he nodded tinyly.
"... could you answer more of these questions to help us win?"
Loden nodded again at the words... and I asked a series of questions.
