In a World Where Dirty Cartoons Are Legal 200

Chapter 200 – Volume 40 – The Waves of the Calm Waterside (5)

At the unbelievable scene, Nia’s expression stiffened as she watched the cartoon.
But at the same time, the self-deprecating words Sling said passed through my head.
Her head hurt even more as she understood the situation, albeit roughly.

I’d rather she didn’t know anything, she’d only think badly about the sling.
She knew that she hated herself and her situation so much that she wanted to run away from it.
Knowing that Sling’s mind using that magic was burning, she couldn’t just think badly.

“Sling? What the hell now…”
“…You are bad. It’s your fault for doing something like love.”

Sling slipped out of her seat, leaving behind unknown words.
Micro hugged the mortally wounded Mizugi and sobbed.
But Micro was not gifted with her magic, and she had no choice but to watch Mizugi pass away from her world without any proper coping.

But she fell in love for the first time, and at the point when that love reached its climax.
Since that person was mercilessly murdered in front of her eyes, that despair was not something that could be wrapped in the words ‘I had no choice but to watch’.
White light emanated from Micro’s body, which must have been incompetent, and something started.

“Uh?”

And when Nia turned her page again, she was revealed to be Miz Gi, still alive and well.
No, it would be more accurate to see it as Mizugi at the beginning of Volume 2.
Because she was wearing the attire of the time.

‘…Turn back time?’

The reason Nia was able to come up with such an idea was because there was already a similar setting in ‘Sender Unknown’.
In other words, it means that Micro went back in time to save Mizugi with his own abilities that he was unaware of.
And if you combine it with what Sling said at the end…

‘Sling said as if reprimanding Micro for loving Mizugi. In other words, Mizugi died because Micro was her lover.’

Then, the reason Sling is close to Micro is…
It was most likely because of Sling’s work from the beginning.

In other words, the group Sling belonged to knew that Micro had special powers.
In order to use it, I deliberately caused the trigger ‘death of a loved one’.
Nia interpreted the contents like that.

“…I don’t seem to remember.”

Micro, who was once the one who turned back time, had absolutely no memory of what had happened.
So, of course, the content that is not much different from the previous one develops quickly, and Mizugi is killed by Sling just like before.
After that, time went back again due to the sobbing micro.

‘Hasn’t it subtly changed?’

As Mizugi’s death was repeated over and over again, Mermaid Island, which was originally close to the countryside, began to change.
Originally, it felt like living as it is in nature.
Skills that were automated through magic or needed to use magic developed little by little.

It’s not that it developed over time, there were changes like that every time time went back.
Nia could easily guess that it was the work of the group Sling belonged to.

‘Obviously, it was called the Mermaid Island Development Committee.’

Sling rarely talks about where he belongs.
He felt guilty for having succumbed to it.
Although he mainly talked about the feeling of wanting to run away.

Because of Mizugi’s actions to find out about such a sling, Nia also knew some information.
The ‘Mermaid Island Development Committee’ to which Sling belongs is a kind of aristocratic force that manages this Mermaid Island.
It is a place where mermaids who win a swimming competition held at regular intervals gather to decide the future of the island.

‘Am I using Micro’s ability to go back in time to develop Mermaid Island?’

And when that trigger, the loved one, is met, he must have ordered it to be killed through the sling dispatched in advance.
As much as Sling knew that fact to some extent.
He must have wanted to run away from that terrible thing.

“Micro…”

However, it was not only the scenery of the island that changed through continuous repetition.
I wonder if I can’t remember anything at all, I have a fragment of the feeling that I loved Mizugi.
When she sees Mizugi, she’s startled that she’s alive, or when she just sees her, she’s like a little girl who radiates her love to the point where she just doesn’t know what to do.

Those feelings intensify as the repetition progresses.
Now she can’t even keep her spirits up properly, and as soon as she spots Mizugi, she throws off her robe and runs at it.
She was so devastated that she longed for her love, with her face buried in Mizugi’s crotch.

“Mi-Micro!?”
“You were looking at me with dirty eyes. No, at least you’re watching now. Hey, will you commit a lot? It hurts, my head hurts so much… Make me forget everything. I think you can make me forget…”

The appearance of Mikro, who was wary of and reluctant to do dirty things, is nowhere to be found.
She had become her obsession, dedicating her own body to Mizugi as if she had become addicted before she knew it.
She remains unconscious, because of the real happiness of the days when she had sex with him.
In order to get rid of her current anxiety and approach that happiness, she was struggling in the hellish reality.

She is a micro figure that seems to break at any moment.
Mizugi says this is all she can do for her, though she reassures her by blending her body with her.
Of course, as much as it was the trigger, she was only killed by the sling faster.

As Micro’s obsession grew stronger due to repetition, the time it took for the two to connect became shorter.
After that, it was not the 2nd volume, but the first part of the first volume, where the two first met, went straight to sex, and it became the level of the first face-to-face instant sex.
Virtually every time she turned a page, Mizugi started dying.

Mermaid Island has already achieved development similar to that of the capital of the empire.
At that point, the sling’s attack that had been killing Mizugi with magic stopped, and rather, he held out her hand and asked for a handshake.

“…Really what’s going on.”

In fact, it was broken to the point where it couldn’t even speak properly, and it couldn’t do anything except hug Mizugi.
Mizugi suddenly feels like the owner of Micro and is treated with kindness on Mermaid Island.
In a strange, incomprehensible situation, Mizugi hears the keyword ‘modified mermaid’ as her description of Micro.

“A modified mermaid?”

Some of the mermaids have special abilities.
In order to develop using it, Mermaid Island has been experimenting with humans from before.
As a result, a successful test subject like Micro was obtained, and it was of great help to the development.

“If you cooperate, we will be able to control Micro’s abilities stably.”

Now that the dependence has become so strong, it is said that death is not a trigger, but that it is enough to say that it will be thrown away.
Mizugi conveys the plan to periodically manipulate Micro to send time to the past.
Mizugi had no intention of joining this crazy plan, but roughly nodded to her for noticing that if Sling rebelled, he would die.

「Ah, this is a failure of the same project. It’s called a bikini.”
“…It doesn’t look good.”
“Anyway, it would hurt your parents to think that you died because you were a failure.”

They made people like that through their human experiments.
You say it as if it was the subject’s fault…
Nia crumpled her expression because she was in a bad mood.

“And this is where the documents to be sent to the past are stored. The things you received before are initialized the next time you move to the past, so the amount has increased like this because you keep adding.”
“Are you sending this document with Micro’s ability?”
“Yes, because I need information about the future on a regular basis.”

When the necessary information is revealed, the past is changed by adding a document and turning on a trigger.
In that way, the mermaids had the technology and power they have today.

“I’m sure mermaids have gotten better…”

With the sacrifice of a small number of mermaids treated as test subjects.
Obviously, Mermaid Island has become a good country to live in.
Magical civilization is at the highest level, and it has power so strong that you don’t have to worry about plundering other countries.

But Nia, who witnessed all the peace created by betraying and sacrificing her friends.
She had no choice but to reconsider the idea of ​​’revival of the country’ she wanted.
As Kali is also chosen for political purposes, what will happen if the political direction and Kali collide?
Anxiety about it slowly grew inside her.

“Sling…”

Mizugi tried to burn all of her papers there, making everything a thing of the past.
Sling attempts to kill Mizugi to stop the action.
However, when the sling was blocked by Micro, she begged in a broken state.
Eventually, Sling can’t stand the sight and gives up her fight.

“It is useless. If this happens, recover the documents quickly and then kill the trigger…”
“Sling…?”

And Sling is immediately killed by a person who appears to be her superior.
But to Mikro, who was betrayed by her Sling again and again, surprisingly, Sling was still recognized as her own friend.

Due to the death of a precious friend, he goes into a frenzy and immediately turns back time.
And miraculously, Mizugi didn’t lose her memories in this replay.
The story ends as Mizugi, who possesses her memories, blocks the sling that reveals her true colors.

At the point of Sling’s betrayal of her, she gave up everything.
Still, Micro wasn’t giving up on her.
Not her traitor, she wept for her as if she were still her dear friend.

“Ah…”

Covering her comic book, Nia, for the first time ever, felt skeptical of her own principles of action, living by valuing her country rather than her friends.
