Chapter 905 – Skirmish
The detective world where Charlotte lives also has some problems due to the Kingdom’s enemy, the Eastern Empire, but the problems there are easily overcome thanks to the magical engineering that Yuna introduced to the kingdom. Therefore, rather than worrying about the world of his followers anymore, he decides to finish the work in his own world.
“Today is exactly 6 months.”
Seongil had been waiting for today to obtain a powerful artifact that would highlight his abilities.
“Will they give me the Book of Creation skill fusion ticket?”
Seong-il tries to use the Book of Creation, whose cooldown has run out, with an expectant expression. I look forward to the emergence of skill fusion rights.
『Skill Fusion Ticket: You can fuse two of the user’s skills to create a new, stronger skill. However, skills cannot be combined at will; there must be something in common between the skills.』
“Oh my…!!”
When the skill fusion ticket actually appears, Seong-il looks like he is cheering. He even ponders whether it would be a good idea to go back in time every six months and collect skill fusion tickets to maximize his skills.
‘No… That’s not good.’
That’s when he thought he needed to bide his time. Seong-il feels a negative sensation from the response. For some reason, Seong-il feels that if he spends more time in Eden than necessary, negative variables may arise.
‘Is it likely that everyone in Eden, including me… Will lose their will to fight…?’
Seong-il was able to feel through the emotional warning that if he postponed the action in Eden by making excuses, he and the hunters and residents living in Eden would lose their will to fight little by little.
‘Well… I also get the feeling that I want to become a little more complacent every time I rest, and people must be appalled.’
And for some reason, Seong-il gets the feeling that if he chooses to settle down in the Inner Plane, tragedy will come to his world. Therefore, rather than delaying work to kill time, he decides to focus on growing people as quickly as possible and using that power to rescue everyone in reality.
‘Let’s rescue all humanity and think about whether to rebuild civilization in Eden or on Earth.’
Thinking like that, Seong-il stops thinking and decides to fuse the ‘Body of the Infinite Creator’ skill and the ‘Forgotten Essence of God’ skill as he had thought about half a year ago.
Wow…!!
A familiar pain begins to hit Seong-il’s entire body. It was quite a pain, but since he had already experienced something similar once, Seongil did not panic and calmly endured the pain, waiting for the two powerful skills to merge into one.
『Body of the Infinite Creator (Reform): (100/100)』
* The Creator’s body made up of countless universes. Up to 100 clones can be summoned by dividing the owner’s soul.
‘Hmm… Except that the number of clones has been doubled, the only thing that has changed is…’
Seongil only doubles the numbers in his previous skill, but quickly skips text with the same content. That’s when he flipped through all the content he had seen before. At the end, Seongil was able to discover interesting content that he had not seen in existing skills.
* Creator’s Blessing: The created alter ego can freely use the ‘Artifact’ that ‘Han Seong-il’ has used in the past.
It can be used once a day, and consumable artifacts cannot be summoned. Additionally, artifacts that are too powerful will be summoned with downgraded performance. The created artifact automatically disappears after 24 hours.
“Oh… Creating an artifact… This is kind of good, isn’t it?”
Since most of the clones he created did not have any weapons, it was true that although they had the same powers as the main body, their combat power was not as good as Seongil’s main body. However, it seemed clear that if this limited artifact could be given to the clone, the clone’s power would definitely become stronger than before.
“The power of the forgotten essence of the Foreign God has been naturally absorbed into the new skill… It’s good.”
Seong-il is confident that his choice was not wrong. In order to check the upgraded abilities of his alter ego, he summons his alter ego and attempts various experiments.
“Oh… You can also summon the now-lost devil’s teeth or indomitable will? That’s fun…”
However, when copying Arunlabe, the beloved disease of the Holy Day, Arunlabe appears to be summoned with most of its powers lost, perhaps because it is a universal holy object. A representative example is the power of divine death and the omission of the power to transform according to the will of the owner.
‘Hmm… Still, it appears usefully in the form of a great sword…? It’s not as good as the original, but it’s still quite sturdy, and it seems to be able to overcome the surrounding laws to some extent.’
It wasn’t quite enough for him to use, but it was just the right weapon for his alter ego to use.
“This is… It’s enough.”
With 100 monsters of the same level as himself and 100 powerful weapons, Seong-il will be able to defeat even the bishop of the Transcendence Church with a smile, so Seong-il decides to be satisfied with this.
***
“… I wonder what level the hunter training is at.”
A situation in which 10 times the population living in Eden was rescued six months ago. Since Seong-il trained as many as 600,000 hunters by squeezing out the population, Seong-il wonders how many additional hunters will have been replenished from the huge population rescued this time.
‘I hope the number of hunters increases…’
Seong-il, who had completely withdrawn from Eden’s work for the past six months. Now that the regions, countries, and races that make up Eden have become more diverse, he has delegated most of the political aspects to the self-elected members of the Eden district, the council they established, the priests of the Earth Mother Church, the central administration, and the Hunter Association. .
‘When we were a minority, we relied on G.E.C.R. And the Gaia system to control society… But not anymore.’
Seong-il did not regret his choice because, as it had a population comparable to that of any major country in the world before its collapse, serious problems would arise in society if someone like him became a dictator without using proper politics and administration.
‘Whoa… I wonder if I really used my time well.’
If you handle the dungeon world well, you can accelerate time up to 10 times, but it was unclear whether the humanity that joined this time would have been absorbed into Eden’s rule and entered the dungeon world, so Seong-il went to the council with a slightly anxious expression. Move.
“Hmm…”
Seong-il appears at the Eden Alliance Council for the first time in a long time and catches up with the progress. He frowns when he realizes that social integration is weaker than he thought.
“The number of hunters has tripled in just half a year?”
“… Yes.”
“Even though there were so many G.E.C.R.S and priests?”
When the seeker’s tone of voice is not good, the leaders of the old world who respected the seeker before he went into hiding explain the situation by looking at his feelings.
“The size of the rescued population is too large and large. Half a year is not a short time, but it is not the time to completely control a population of 100 million.”
“Well…”
Although it is said that all of Eden’s human and material resources were mobilized, it would still be strange if they had succeeded in democratically controlling the number of 100 million in just half a year, so Seong-il looks satisfied with the continental administrator’s explanation.
“What about the anti-government forces?”
“… There were quite a few. Most of them are being ‘reformed’ quickly. The ‘disturbing’ ones are quickly suppressed by priests and hunters and exiled to another continent.”
The miracles of the great goddess and the appearance of powerful priests and hunters. And despite seeing the overwhelming technology, surprisingly, a considerable number of people did not appear to be subjugated to Eden until the end. However, rather than forcibly controlling such people, Seongil dealt with them by banishing them to a separate continent and giving them autonomy.
‘If the resources provided are reduced to 1/10th, what will they do without regrets?’
A holy day of blessings given by Eden and the Earth Mother Church for gaining political freedom and allowing people to live self-sufficiently by drastically reducing overwhelming resources. Therefore, many of the seditious forces who could not forget the abundance they experienced in the beginning would return to Eden, crying and eating mustard.
‘It seems like there are quite a few people who will hold out until the end… Well… I plan on sending those people back to Earth as soon as the war is over anyway. Otherwise, I’m thinking of making it truly independent…’
Seong-il had no intention of forcibly controlling or oppressing those who pursued freedom until the very end. He thought they were great again. After all, he is the one who gave up a lot for his own beliefs and true freedom. Seong-il, who was lost in thought while listening to the report for a while, sighs lightly and speaks to the executives.
“Whew… I can’t help it. For now, I’ll give you a little more time before the D day, so try your best.”
“Yes…”
‘Ha… Should I spend more time ruling Eden…’
Seong-il was worried that he would fall into inertia and tried to prepare for the final war as quickly as possible? However, when the situation does not go as he wanted, he goes against Gam-eung’s advice and wonders if he should pay more attention to his internal affairs.
Tiring!
“…?”
An unexpected alarm that rings during a meeting. Seong-il was taken aback by the sudden sound, but he didn’t show it and carefully turned on the augmented reality.
‘…100% the game master is trying to give me some advice to help me.’
Since Seong-il has communicated with the game master for years and understood his tendencies, he carefully checks the game master’s message.
『Game Master: First, collect dungeon cores and achieve Grade A. Then your troubles will be solved.』
“… Hmm.”
