The happy thing that you want to show off to everyone is called a commendation.
When it’s a good day, people want to show off to everyone, and they celebrate each other and share joy, further strengthening their friendship.
So did I.
I headed to the warehouse to congratulate Jiseon for coming. On the way, he leaned against the wall and said goodbye to the thoughtful regressor, then went into the warehouse and stood in front of a closed box.
Inside this box, some unfortunate being is trapped. I opened the lid and saw its existence… .
“What?”
A wild butterfly appeared. The butterfly crawled into the cramped box and made eye contact.
“Why are you there?”
“Why are you disturbing Nya’s rest?”
A butterfly staring at me with a look at what? I beckoned to the butterfly.
“I’ll get you some stuff from under your ass.”
“what?”
Then the butterfly moved quickly even in this small box. With a twitch, the head went down and the tail rose upwards, then rolled around like a fetus swimming in the womb and then sticking out its head again.
In the butterfly’s mouth, there was a wobbly golem tied with a wire.
“Nah. take it I don’t need this tin toy… .”
When he said that while biting, the golem’s body shook up and down. I tickled the butterfly’s jaw and pulled out the golem.
The butterfly looked at me with its slightly raised eyes and murmured.
“Nah. That big bitch, does it smell dangerous?”
“Isn’t it better than the smell of magic herbs from your body?”
“Are tributes sacred?”
None of the weeds I’ve seen say tobacco is sacred. How addicted are you?
The butterfly grumbled inside the box.
“On the other hand, is that something dangerous? Stupid dogs don’t even feel weird and wag their tails, but do you know Nya? . Nya can’t be deceived… .”
The guy who has been trained on drugs and deceived and swayed by the cat beast speaks well. I said impatiently.
“If you can’t win, it’s dangerous. In that sense, isn’t the placenta of the person here dangerous to you?”
As the undeniable truth stabbed, the butterfly gnawed at it.
“Nyahak! Do you think Nya is lucky to be in here? If it wasn’t for you, I would have scolded you right away… .”
As soon as I closed the lid, the sound went away. As it became immobilely narrow, a satisfying gurgling sound could be heard up to here.
An animal that likes small spaces, it is a very strange creature. Some golems make a sick noise when tied up.
I left the butterfly alone and started assembling the golem.
First, I put the speaker back on my mouth, loosened the wires tied to my arms and legs, and removed the eye patch. OK.
“… Fuha!」
The golem has been revived.
The golem, who had regained his senses after a long time, for some reason kept his mouth shut. I said, tapping the golem’s head.
“You know roughly what’s going on?”
“… .』
“Giggle. you know Is Jiseon here?”
There’s no way you wouldn’t know while watching the ground.
And you will know why Ji-sun came. As this signalman, the Tantalus administrator, he seems to know a lot of strange things.
To the signalman who had nothing to do but watch the situation, I boasted of my slant on Tantalus.
“ha ha ha. what about this? I think we’re going out soon!”
“… Ugh.”
“Even the Brigadier General took it out himself! key Isn’t that legal?”
“denial! Thousands and Thousands of Thousands! A laborer like you must be punished according to the military law, and it is a felony to leave the place of work without permission before completing the labor!”
“But what are you going to do when the Brigadier General is removing the abyss? one… On the subject of the captain?”
“… Ouch!」
“Did you come down and stop me?”
“If only I could do it!”
I mean, it’s really weird. He must be a golem, but he has more voice variations than anyone I know. Now, there is a voice that bites your lips again.
“There is absolutely no way that will happen! Even if the military authorities release you! The main building will never forget your atrocities… !」
How many cruel things have I done? All I had to do was play with the golem and force an answer.
Even so, this golem is easy to understand for something that can’t read thoughts.
I asked quietly.
“I, manager. Would you like to see what is happening here?”
Then the golem responded as if he had completely forgotten that he had poured out his resentment towards me just a moment ago.
“… If possible?”
“How do we make that possible?”
Learning is not exclusive to humans, but human learning is a bit fast and a priori.
The golem I had learned so far was a little hesitant, but I made a decision faster than before.
“… Let’s go, shall we go for a walk together, brother?”
“yes? who is your brother When you hear that someone like me is your brother, do you look like a hogu who does everything?”
In an instant, the golem’s joints creaked. Immediately after that, he raised his head sadly and looked at me.
Human learning is a bit fast and a priori, so even when the original reward circuit is broken, the fact is quickly fed back.
It would be fun if I didn’t do the same and threw it back in the warehouse, but it’s a pity to ruin it already.
“Right! I’m Hogu! Come on, let’s go!”
Before the golem could say anything, I grabbed the golem and walked away.
In the yard, food and supplies were stacked one after another in boxes. Most of the food was stored in cans. The military canned food can be recycled only if you know how to use alchemy, so we decided to actively use it.
Thanks, I’ve been struggling a bit. Because he’s the only one who can use alchemy here.
I took out a can of food from the box and ripped it open. Inside, the freshly pressed rice was shining white. I shoved it in front of the golem.
“ruler. Look at this. We are packing our luggage. These are the things that will feed us when we get out of jail.”
“…み!」
Seeing it with my own eyes, I can feel it. As I walked with a moaning golem, I boasted of the slope we had.
“Who is all this thanks to? That’s right, thanks to Jiseon-sama for coming here!”
chuck. I pointed to Jiseon, who was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the yard. Jiseon, who was feeling the pulse of this land, felt the footsteps of me and the golem and turned around.
“iced coffee. Are you the messenger of the military? I hope to see you after a long time… . But what should a dwarf call you?”
“Call me Hughes! If you’re not close enough to call me by name yet, hey, you, ma’am, you can call me like this!”
“How could Gilson be so reckless? I will call you by name, out of spite.”
“thank you! Ah, Jiseon-nim called my name!”
Do you call Jiseon by name directly? life is work If you brag to the old engineers in the city, you’re going to die of envy.
Anyway. I held the golem hanging from my side and pushed it forward. Then the golem salutes in haste as if in dismay.
“Loyalty. I’m Captain Abbey, a military signalman! The main building is monitoring and managing Tantalus, and first of all, welcome the return of the Brigadier General!
“Thank you. However, the dwarf did not return, but only came to destroy the abyss.”
“I have something to report on that! Brigadier general, can you give me a little delay in getting rid of the abyss?”
When the golem suggested it, Jiseon raised her eyes slightly.
“Is that the will of the military?”
“Positive. Military authorities have not yet done an environmental assessment of the disappearance of the abyss. I’m not even sure if the abyss can be destroyed, and… .』
“No need to worry. The postmark checked it over and over again.”
“… In addition, the international situation that will change due to this, or sporadic problems caused by the escape of trainees… .』
“That, too, is not a matter for the military to worry about. The abyss disappears and the spirit returns to the earth. This is the will of Mother Goddess, and humans have to adapt to it. According to the small man, the people in this place were so good that they shouldn’t have been in the abyss.”
If we had shown our evil side, would you have thought of sending us to Mother Goddess in one room? Whoa, I’m glad Am I doing nothing wrong?
“Besides, the military has no right to say that. Haven’t the truly wicked escaped already? It is the only thing that you have to look back on yourself before you criticize the villain.”
“Then, at least.”
Despite the successive rebukes, the golem continued to persuade.
“… Shouldn’t it be reported to the believers who followed the Brigadier General? Shouldn’t they also witness the moment when the abyss disappears?”
For a moment, incontinence was drawn on Jiseon’s face. Jisun, who was sitting cross-legged, let out a deep, heavy sigh.
“How much longer do I have to wait?”
When Jiseon asked, the golem, who had mistakenly thought that she had changed her mind, said with an excited voice.
“A year, no, you can pull it a little longer than that. During that time, the Brigadier General will contact the believers scattered throughout the military. The military public relations department will help the brigadier general.”
I would think that this is a very important suggestion, but unfortunately it is wrong.
Because Jiseon didn’t really want to meet them.
“… How can I make you wait longer? It was the dwarf that led them down the thorny road. If you instill great hope again in those who remember that disastrous failure, and then drop it again into the abyss.”
A determined light lingered on Jiseon’s face, who muttered bitterly.
“The dwarfs do nothing but act first. After destroying the abyss, I will only tell them that Mother Goddess’ wrath has subsided. I heard your wishes too late… Along with saying sorry.”
“Brigade Commander.”
“I have already decided. It doesn’t matter what the military does in the future, so the minor will do his job.”
Jiseon’s words seemed to be unable to stop or turn like a rolling rock. Realizing that, the golem quietly looked at Jiseon, then raised his hand again and saluted.
“… I wish the Brigadier good luck.”
He acts like he will kill me if I break the military command, but bad luck resides in Jiseon. Isn’t this discrimination?
Come to think of it, Jiseon deserves to be discriminated against. admit.
There was nothing more to say, so I grabbed the golem and headed into the prison. In the meantime, the golem was resting helplessly on my side.
I said to the golem.
“Anyway, now you know?”
“… What do you mean?”
“I didn’t leave the place of work, but it disappeared. That’s as big a difference as falling and jumping. In other words, I am not charged with this matter. Do you know?”
“As I said, it doesn’t change the fact that you are the conspirators who caused the fall.”
“Because I didn’t kill him. How can an ordinary person like me harm the general? I wouldn’t even be able to touch a single hair.”
“The military is unaware of that fact. If you want to prove your innocence, please surrender after leaving Tantalus and respond to the investigation.”
“It would be quite like that.”
“… It’s a sympathy.”
The golem made a groaning sound.
“Even though he is a gray star, the name of the Brigadier General is high throughout the military. Especially in the military, there are many people who respect her regardless of the generals. So, I warn you, you must not injure the Brigadier General at all.”
“What are you talking about? Why are we hurting Jiseon?”
“… It may have been emphasized. Those who have fallen here so far… It all came down to bad results.”
“It’s not funny. Secondly, I don’t have the will to do that, and I don’t even have the ability to do that!”
Except for one.
By the way, even after listening to the story and reading the memories, Ji-seon is not a great person to do something that will remain as a memory of a regressor.
What the hell is going on?
either one
Is it that the regressor is actually a psychopath who believes that he is a regressor?
At the bottom of the bottom of the abyss, was there something huge that could turn the branch wire upside down from the root?
I should seriously examine the first hypothesis even now, but it was around the time I was thinking about it.
