Omniscient First-Person’s Viewpoint chapter 275

The Land of Steel and Faceless Humans – 16

A signalman who became everyone in sync with the synchronization magic. They feel the same thing through their own magic and share the same information. As we set the way we look, we naturally resemble each other in our tone of voice.

In the end, I think that the military has reached the point of printing even humans.

But it can’t be.

If that was the case, would you have locked up the signalman in a windowless room?

“The signalmen can communicate with each other! But why didn’t you help your colleague even when he was in death?”

It is a moral accusation. IA, who had been locked up in a room for the first time in her life, hesitated for a moment before answering.

“It’s the rules of a signalman… .”

“Noisy! First off, someone in a hurry!”

I stopped talking and tried to urge Y with my eyes… but you don’t have to Y is already on medication. He tilted the card I gave him and put the 9 heart in his mouth, then opened Z’s mouth and poured it in.

Everyone paused for a moment and looked at the two of them. Y, who was desperately pouring drugs, at some point… He convulsed violently and collapsed like a puppet with a broken thread.

A few were agitated, but it was mostly ours. Even at the moment when one of his comrades fell, the signalman remained calm.

“The drug is a lie.”

“poison? Or drugs?”

“There is no means of resisting the enemy in this module. Why do you have to lie?”

“He was known as a scammer in Amittengrad. Probably to deceive this module.”

The signalmen, including the IA, were calm. I was making the assumption that this might be the case, so the fact that Y fell was an act of reaffirming my will to attack.

But only one.

“Liar!”

Only X strode towards me with furious fury. Historia quickly approached to stop her, but I held her back with my hand.

You have to make them think and judge.

“You… Were you going to take care of us all from the start… ? Are you going to continue attacking even if you know the identity of the signal operator!”

X alone pours out pure anger at me. You may be able to get a bit more out of it here, but there’s no need to complicate things. I bluntly confessed.

“The potion I used is Heart 9, a false death potion. It puts the person who drank for a certain amount of time into a coma.”

“Lyric status? Why are you taking such a drug? .”

“Being a sacrifice is like having your image uprooted. You’re still alive, but you’ll die soon. In that case, in order to restore the image… .”

I pretended to cut my throat once.

“You call it a zoma lamp? When you receive death or a shock that is close to it, the life you have been through so far comes to mind for a moment.”

If anything gets stuck in any device, stopping it once and restarting it will solve most problems. It’s the same with humans.

When death or a huge stimulus close to it sweeps over the whole body, the previous nerves, which were briefly initialized, return to their original state, returning the traces of the memories that have been made so far.

“So, so. When you die and then wake up again, a large part of the image you have built up in your life is restored. There was a need to make it happen, even with drugs. Where, would you like to check it out?”

The dubious X used his own magic again. Unlike Y or Z, the Eymeder she summoned only opened the door, so it didn’t take much damage. A relatively smart native mage was between her and Y and Z.

“… ! sympathy… !”

Incomplete, but connected. Some of the original magic that had been greatly damaged a while ago has been restored.

X realized that what I was saying was true. At the same time, all the signalmen knew it was true. thanks to the collaboration X changed his attitude.

“… Thank you for your help.”

“it’s okay. There was only a means that was right for me, what?”

It’s a way to rip you off.

I hid my heart and gave X a friendly smile.

“You two take care of them. You are the most reliable person here.”

X thanked me and laid them both down right away.

Someone who built the military built a pretty solid system. A way of governing the military by using signalmen isolated from the world. That was pretty impressive for me as well.

Of course, it’s just impressive. A world ruled by iron men. It’s a very common concept. I stood on top of everyone hoping to become an iron man.

The military power that filled it with signalmen was pretty great, but it still didn’t go beyond the fundamental limits.

No matter how well they made it, communication soldiers are also human.

“More than that. Suddenly angry you! You must have called me a deceiver!”

I strode towards U and poked my head. U, who suddenly caught my attention, retreated abruptly, but I caught up with him faster than him and threatened him.

“Do you know who I am and judge me? Do you think a fraudster who cheats in the back alley and deceives others can reach this far?!”

“Well, it is not. However, according to the information obtained by the main building… .”

“Information obtained? I don’t know what information it is, but did you see it and think about it yourself? Can you explain the existence of the country with the information you have come across?!”

U didn’t say anything and kept his mouth shut. Rarely for a correspondent, she took pride in her job, and was humiliated by even the smallest mistakes.

okay. this is it Even in the same situation, a slight difference felt. petty emotions. Because humans are human beings, they are emotional and impulsive, so there are some gaps that we cannot help but have.

After I finished yelling, I walked slowly and said.

“I have no intention of killing or harming you. In the first place, the reason I came here is to set human values right.”

Everyone hears what I say. This is because the signalmen of one module are synchronized in real time.

But, will everyone hear the same?

“The military does not take care of people. They are just trying to oppress, punish, and rule. Their reign does not contain recognition. They imprison a mother who steals to feed a child who is groaning from hunger, like a vicious criminal, and even if they spit out their own thoughts naturally, if they go against the ideology of the military, they trample on them. without taking into account the heart within it,”

Saying that, he walked slowly, and as soon as he arrived in front of P, he turned his head and shouted loudly.

“The same goes for a signal soldier who is slowly dying in a small room!!”

“Hey!”

P, who is particularly sensitive to stimuli, was startled by my shout and pounded his buttocks. The reason a signalman can have composure is because he communicates through the golem, and when he’s naked, he’s no different from a normal person.

Blowing a sneering smile at her, he brought his face closer to R, who was next to him.

“I cannot accept this country. There is no joy that comes by chance, and there is no luxury and pleasure like a one night dream. To be moved by seeing someone, or to change your mind on a whim. Counting the sins from the heart before accusing them. People take precedence over rules. I want a country like that!”

“Why did you tell the main building… .”

“Have you ever thought of such a thing? When punishing criminals according to the military law. The guy who sold his conscience for a small amount of money, and the guy who stole money for a while to treat his family who was about to die. Is it right to punish them equally for the same crime?”

Among the military’s signalmen, R. who collects judgments and precedents, would take it a little more seriously. In this way, little by little, I give each other one word to another. When opening a gap with a sharp skewer, pinch it from side to side and shake it.

“You guys are wrong! I don’t know who taught me to be like this, but I’m totally wrong! Surrounding them with steel walls, talking only through golems, and sly conversations amongst themselves, do you think it would be objective? no! That’s neglect and giving up! If you are the command center that moves the military, you must not give up thinking!”

Maybe it’s because I’m starting to feel something. IA, who can be said to be the manager of this module, stubbornly listened to my words.

“This is a pointless argument. As you can’t come up with a better alternative, your opinion is… .”

“Shut up! I don’t care what you say as a bystander!”

I slapped my cheeks. IA, who collapsed again, made an unhappy expression for a brief moment.

Her unique magic is a type that binds several signalmen at close range… In other words, if you count this as a class, you are the class president. Her power is so powerful that it’s limited to close range, and she’s able to entrap all 25 people here.

So your comments are not allowed. In the first place, they are pressured to not even speak.

How are you going to explode? That’s it.

“There are too many words. Leah, just shut that person while I speak.”

“… Do you even have to do that?”

“It is necessary. If you don’t, I’ll just gag it.”

Historia thought that it was better to keep her mouth shut than to gag, so she went back to IA and covered her mouth. The restraints of the six generals were stronger than any other straitjacket, and the straitjacket had intelligence that it did not have in its circumstances.

IA is now in a position where she can’t move and just watch what I say.

“You guys are doing well. If you see that the military is still in good shape, that’s for sure. But, you are human too. It’s not always right.”

raised my hand The card of Heart 10 that I broke earlier. It should have been red in the first place, but as all the liquid inside had escaped, I picked up the card with a pale gray heart with two fingers.

“For example, like this. If you put the card you just broke back to its original state… .”

But when I waved the card a couple of times with my finger, rolled it up and blown it, the card was dyed red again.

Having restored my heart, I waved proudly.

“What number did I write? You who have lived your whole life in that small room, do you know?”

A phenomenon that cannot be explained by logic alone. Some correspondents are curious… Rather, I felt a desire for observation.

Correspondents who have been locked up in a room all their lives are acquired voyeurs. Without going through the golem, they are just locked in a steel box, so they connect to the golem and see the world without anyone telling them to.

And the easiest thing to deceive with magic is those who are new to magic.

“There is no reason to notice. It is clear that he was cheating. There is nothing strange about it.”

only one. S went out to block the curiosity of the signalmen.

But the method is wrong. To claim that it is a trick is to half-accept the existence of magic. If you hadn’t paid attention in the first place, you might not know, but such a claim is only a prey.
