Chapter 651 – The Doll’s Knight
Ira is a game in this world. In other words, they are shocked to realize that it is a kind of fake world.
“Congratulations on realizing the truth.”
“…”
Like the existing followers, Aira also had a devastated look on her face after seeing the shocking information.
Elysia runs over and starts patting her, barely keeping her sane thanks to her Gamemaster’s strong mental defenses.
“Come and give me some education.”
“Yes.”
Perhaps not having met her confused follower once or twice, Elysia is very accustomed to supporting her Aira and bringing her back to her reality.
After they leave for a while, Seong-il examines the 『Doll of the Great Creator』 Obtained as a clear reward.
“The quality of the doll is determined by the material I put in the heart…”
Seong-il instinctively looks at Kitty, the most powerful being she has ever seen, and Arun Rabe, whom he gave.
“…Isn’t it a bit like using it as a power source?”
Wooooo…!!
When Seongil thinks of impure thoughts, Arunrabe trembles strongly and emits negative waves to him.
Arunrabe strongly appeals to Seong-il that he is already a complete being and a perfect being that does not need a body.
“Yes, yes. Okay. I’m sorry. I was thinking about it.”
Ugh…!!
Arunrabe answered Seongil with a slight trembling as if he was satisfied with Seongil’s answer.
‘Shit… Arunrabe is a bit like that. Shall we meet Kitty and ask if it is okay to share a piece of essence…’
However, Seong-il knows very well that the idea is really far-fetched and quickly dismisses it.
‘The cosmic being, Meow, is not some kind of idiot … He would not allow such a thing. Even if they allow it, I have no idea how much I will pay for it… It’s done!! Even the owner has to imprint it.’
Thinking so, Seong-il scratches his fingertips and lightly sprinkles his own blood on the empty doll’s heart.
“Hoo…”
Then, surprisingly, pure power emanates from the empty heart of the white doll, transforming Seongil’s blood into primordial and pure power.
Seongil’s blood, transformed like the essence of life and magic, turns into a soft milky way and begins to flow into the doll’s body.
Deuk!! That extreme!! Hard!!
A doll of the Creator who begins to tremble while lying down like a patient suffering from epilepsy.
It’s been a while since I’ve had such a seizure. As the subtle power spreads through every corner of the doll, Seong-il feels a strange connection between the doll and his own mind.
‘…The owner’s imprint is over.’
Through a series of processes, Seong-il feels that she has become the true owner of the doll.
‘By the way… This doll is probably made from the remains of a good god?’
Seeing the puppet’s ability to completely purify the uncleanness mixed in his own blood and to restore it to pure power, Seong-il quickly grasps the puppet’s true nature.
“That means…”
As he has a very strong resistance to evil, Seong-il naturally thinks of the essence created based on the god of death and the meteorite he had previously obtained, and thinks about combining them.
“…Then wouldn’t it last long enough to put that bizarre essence into a doll?”
Pretty bad idea. However, since the essence is a substance derived from the original evil being, Seong-il, slightly embarrassed, quickly takes out a gold coin from his bosom.
“…This is the real thing.”
Unlike the warnings of emotion that come randomly at the decisive moment, gold coins can be used according to his will and taste, so the more he uses them, the more he feels that gold coins are really useful.
Ting~!
“It will be fine if you apply the essence of the god of death obtained earlier to the doll.”
Seong-il feels that a lot of internal energy is flowing into gold coins through empathy. And the reverse side of the gold coin you see.
“No… That’s wrong…”
As dolls and sculptures are originally made of the power of opposites, it seems that problems arise if they are used as they are. So Seong-il tries another question.
“…Can purify essence.”
A gold coin that eats up a lot of energy and bounces off. Fortunately, the coin comes up heads.
There will be plenty of time, Seong-il drinks mana potion like crazy and repeats this and that question.
“I have a way to purify the essence within my grasp.”
Positive.
‘Is there a way to get rid of the powerful curse left by the two divine beings in my hands? What is it…?’
Seong-il, which I thought about for a while. A very familiar artifact flashes through his mind like lightning.
‘…Elixir?’
When Seong-il feels ambiguous about curses or injuries, he very naturally recalls the item he always used and flicks a gold coin.
“…Can be purified using an elixir.”
And the appearance of the front side that looks natural.
“Oh…”
Let’s say that gold coins can purify the essence with an elixir with the last usage count this month, Seong-il quickly takes out the two artifacts and alternately looks at the elixir with the essence of the reaper.
‘Wouldn’t it be great? The elixir will regenerate in five days, so…’
I won’t even give you a warning. Seong-il unhesitatingly opens the cap of the elixir bottle and sprinkles it on the squirming essence of darkness.
「Kiaaaaah!!!!!
Wriggling eyes made of darkness and desperate screams emanating from tentacles. Seong-il is frightened by the terrible scream that pains the listener’s soul and covers his ears.
Procrastinate… Procrastinate…!!
The flesh wriggles its eyes and tentacles as if desperately trying to resist the power of the elixir.
However, since it is only a fragment of the main body and has already been hit hard by Seong-il, it is eventually overpowered by the power of the elixir.
“Pure darkness…?”
The changed appearance of the flesh that is difficult to express otherwise. As if the essence of pure darkness had gathered, it was floating in the air, completely denying the surrounding light.
“…Does it have great potential?”
Seong-il trembles as he feels the power of the essence of darkness that has changed into a response.
Ting~!
Encouraged, Seong-il immediately flicks a gold coin and sees whether it is okay to use the transformed essence on the doll. Fortunately, a positive answer came out as he wished.
“Good…!!”
Although all of the courses expressed their affirmation, Seong-il, who has gained more experience and has become more cautious, is looking at fortune-telling to see if he can get a better core in the near future.
Even after checking the timeline for more than a year, he has a terrible experience of being on the verge of being rejected due to the enormous consumption of internal energy, and finally decides to be satisfied with the result of the fortune telling.
“Uh… I can’t tell the timeline as far away as possible. I almost suffered a major internal injury.”
Seong-il, who finally made up his mind, takes the purified essence of darkness and carefully inserts it into the space punctured in the heart of the creator’s doll.
Hard!! Hard!!
The intense reaction that occurs in the doll when the essence is put into it. The doll reacts to the new heart by making crazy movements with each tiny joint and cell.
‘Regeneration…?’
Seong-il feels that the doll accepts the power of the heart and reconstructs its body appropriately based on the power of the soul connected to the doll.
Wow!!
“Cocoon…?”
At least now, two kinds of thread-like things mixed with the powers of light and darkness are emitted from the body, creating something similar to a cocoon around it.
‘I thought I needed some time…?’
Seong-il feels that since the essence of darkness contains quite a bit of power, it takes a certain amount of time for the doll to digest the power.
“Huh? What is this again?!」
A cursed knight who stopped guiding Aira and returned to Seongil. He is frightened when a bizarre cocoon is suddenly created and asks Seong-il about his identity.
“Ah, this…”
Seong-il briefly explains the identity of the object to the knight. When Seong-il said that it was nothing else, it was an item from a different timeline given as a reward directly by the Game Master, the cursed knight nodded with a relieved expression.
“If it’s something like that… It shouldn’t be a problem.”
“Huh.”
“Receive.”
The cursed knight gives the ring that can summon his body back to Seong-il.
After receiving the ring from him, Seong-il puts it on his finger before answering him.
“This, it seems that the body is being reconstructed, but you should look into the situation. You can contact Elysia.”
“Huh. I will.”
Seong-il, who has a trustworthy manager on standby, moves her body to the inner plane of reality again to check on Aira’s condition.
“…Because! We must plant faith in the Harvest Goddess in the hearts of all people in order to stabilize the dimension and prosper the world!”
Aruril, who had returned after a long time from a long mission, was explaining at length about her Goddess religion to Aira, a newcomer, with a proud expression.
“And the goddess’ husband and owner, Seongil-nim, is the creator of the whole world!! We want to praise him… Oh! You’re here!!”
In the midst of a lengthy explanation of the Goddess Church, Aruril sees Seongil after a long time and approaches him with an expression like a puppy seeing its owner.
“…Are you training new recruits?”
“Yes !! In the future, Sarah, a doll that handles the branches containing the essence of her goddess and Weed Grasil, taught her essential doctrines!!”
“Ah, well… Yes.”
It was a bit fanatical, but it was a necessary process, so Seong-il meekly nodded his head in agreement.
“Is the propagation going well these days?”
“Yes!! Successful.”
“…Is that enough?”
Seong-il is surprised by Aira’s reaction, saying that it is so resolutely successful, and asks her back.
Perhaps encouraged by the response of her holy day, Ira, with a gleeful expression on her face, explains her work she has done in her farm world.
She roams the farm world, where the power of the goddess remains strong, attracts people’s attention with powerful spirit-type magic, makes them listen to the gospel, and then spreads her influence by bestowing blessings, she says.
“…Isn’t it a pseudo?”
“No! Mental magic is only used to draw ‘attention’. There is absolutely no brainwashing or anything like that. The core of propagation is not catch-ups, but blessings and miracles from the goddess!!”
She says she gathers her followers by curing the sick, often performing miracles that restore her disability, or resolving a drought.
‘Actually, that’s a bit pseudo-like… But I don’t know.’
She’s not cheating with facts she doesn’t have, and since it’s an act based on her facts, her holy day decides not to deny her propagation of Aira.
‘Certainly, the growth of the world tree has accelerated.’
As the number of followers increases and their faith grows stronger, and that faith is replaced by the power of the goddess, Widgrassil, who drinks the spirit spring, the essence of her power, seems to be growing rapidly.
‘The power of the dimension has also become denser. Now there are many small branches. Since I have children, I think I can replace all dolls with trees from now on?’
Thinking so, Seong-il turns his head to the opposite side of Young-saem. Then he was able to find a magnificent dome-shaped building installed quite far away.
“It looks like the G.E.C.R production facility is almost complete…?”
“You’re right. Master.”
“…?”
At the appearance of a familiar voice, Seong-il lifts his head and looks up. Then I saw a drone the size of a fist.
“…Edward?”
“That’s right! Since the body currently needs to build factory facilities, only drones for reporting were sent like this. Please forgive my rudeness.”
“No. No.”
Seong-il quickly bites off his apology and listens to his report, as he is not so hardhearted that he scolds his hard-working subordinates.
“Ohhh… You mean you’ve already produced a few and are using them as workers’ brushes?”
“Yes. However, it is close to a minor grade version because it is an object produced with insufficient facilities. It will be reassembled after completion.”
“Are there any difficulties in production?”
Seong-il passes by and asks Edward a question about the G.E.C.R factory. Then, Edward answers him as if he had been waiting.
『The Inner Plane has no substance in nature, so you have to go back and forth between the Pocket Girls world purely to supply materials. The problem is…”
Edward explains that G.E.C.R produced in reality cannot enter the world of Pocket Girls. Because of this, he replies that there is a problem with the factory’s efficiency dropping because he has to bring all the ingredients from the world of Pocket Girls one by one.
“Oops… Then isn’t it meaningless to build a factory?”
“No. Yuna-nim found a way.”
