244 – Brightest Darkness – 2
“It is… ….”
Towards the hesitant Eclipse, he tapped his finger on the table and urged an answer. Eclipse’s body twitched as well whenever the fingernails touched the marble.
“My, it was one of the by-products that I buried with you when I brought the soul from your dimension.”
“It was one of the by-products, I don’t know how that is possible.”
“As you know, I have been randomly dragging spirits from other dimensions to deal with the twisted ones.”
Since it was something I had just heard, I nodded lightly in affirmation.
“Because it was such an urgent situation, in the process of bringing the soul, even part of the concept attached to the soul came over. I mean what you said is also one of those transferred concepts.”
In short, it means that the Goddess didn’t intend for the damn blue steam locomotive to come over.
“I understood what you said. Then why did it remain in this world?”
“Now that the power gap is obvious, there is no need for that, but at the time, that too fought me to the death with all available means. Then I came across a concept from another dimension and threw it into my world with a bizarre twist.”
“Couldn’t the goddess have killed you?”
“I killed it over and over again. It was unacceptable for this world to be polluted. However…… No matter how many times I killed him, he stood up again as if showing off.”
Eclipse gritted his teeth.
“I couldn’t even step out to kill that guy, so I had to be content with burying it in the ground and creating a dungeon and putting it inside.”
In the end, the World Eater was the cause. As I was sorting out my thoughts, I asked a question that suddenly came to my mind.
“I killed it before, is there any chance that it will come back to life?”
“That’s not going to happen.”
Eclipse looked at me and drove a wedge.
“Because I didn’t come back to life on my own. Because it continually revived. To get on my nerves and distract me so I can get the upper hand in battle.”
“The power gap is overwhelming now, so there’s no reason to do that.”
“You saw it correctly.”
I wondered what if I had to deal with that again, but I’m glad I did. To be honest, it was an experience I didn’t want to do twice.
“I understand that. Let’s move on to the last question. Brightest Darkness 4. What the hell is that game and why did you bring me here a second time?”
The number of times it came out of my mouth was not 4, but 2. It was only natural that the misunderstanding was completely resolved. It’s been in the same world since the beginning, but I can’t say that I’ve brought it several times.
“The story of Brightest Darkness 4 you told me is all composed through foreknowledge of the future.”
“If you are foresight about the future, you mean something similar to what I said about my fall when fighting that lizard, right?”
Speaking of conclusions, everything went as the goddess said. ‘Cause I literally fell down There was no word of death anywhere, so he is still alive and talking to the goddess.
“That’s right. I foresaw numerous possibilities that you might choose, and I put them all together and put them into Brightest Darkness 4 as the concept of ‘ending’.”
“That means there might be a world where I say I will annihilate all life, like the ending of Brunet 4—”
“Absolutely not. It was only a possibility, and it was already erased without a trace by the time you started walking down a different path.”
Eclipse flatly denied my concerns.
“The possibility I see is a completely different concept from the ‘parallel world’ that exists in your world. If you choose one possibility, all the others will be something that never existed in the first place.”
I was relieved to hear that.
If all the endings of Brunet 4 were parallel worlds, I would have had to carry the uneasy feeling that the world where I chose the life annihilation route might be somewhere else.
But that means that the moment I join hands with Eclipse and choose the path against the Eater of Worlds as I am now, all other ending branches will cease to exist from the beginning.
All of the numerous multi-endings of Brunet 4.
“If the goddess could see the future, she would have known that I would choose this option. Why were you so nervous?”
“What I am doing is not a prophecy, it is just an act of seeing possibilities. So, from my point of view, all futures are possible and impossible at the same time. The choice was entirely yours.”
After sitting for a while organizing my thoughts, I opened my mouth again when my thoughts were sorted out.
“Why did you make a game of my actions?”
It was the most fundamental question.
If I am the main character of the Brightest Darkness series, why did I have to make it into a game? What the hell were you trying to do by making my past story into a game?
“It is…….”
After hearing that, Eclipse slightly blushed and looked at me with eyes full of affection.
“Because you promised me.”
“Yes?”
“Even though it’s going back like this now, since you made me suffer this much, I can’t stand it unless you pay me back. So, if you ever get a chance to fight him, he told me to call him here.”
What the hell was I doing in the past? Rolling and rolling and rolling again, and in the end, even sacrificing my life, I managed to return to the original world, but I want revenge, so please call me again?
Well, it wasn’t that I couldn’t understand it because it was me in the past. If the reason why I rolled to reincarnate and die was because of the twisted existence he created, it was worth grinding my teeth.
On the contrary, it could be said that it was fortunate that he stopped at the line of not being a character-breaker and vowing to take revenge.
“According to your request, I have read all of your past and potential to create a kind of simulator so that your body will not rust even while you are losing your memory.”
“…… That simulator is the Brightest Darkness series.”
Maybe it was some kind of vengeful spirit that I was playing Bryan 4 to death. A vengeance to give the world eater a shot.
Of course, it was also because it was fun.
Now that the situation is like this, I can understand why I rarely did brunet 1 and 2. Because the body remembers the hardships it suffered at the time of Brunet 1 and 2, it reflexively felt a sense of rejection.
When I reached Brunet 3, I went around with the soul guardian, namely Nix, so I must have felt less repulsive.
As soon as I was drawn into this world, I was able to follow the actions of the characters in the game casually and even kill people for this reason.
Because while playing Brightest Darkness 4, you must have been reviving your old senses with your body, not your head.
That’s 10 years at a time.
I leaned against the back of the chair. My hair, which I had been tidying up, was tangled again like a tangled skein, and all sorts of thoughts came to me at random, making it filthy complicated.
‘Somehow the 5th episode didn’t come out.’
The producers, who had a reasonable release schedule for the 1st to 4th films, said they would not release the 5th film for 10 years, but that was all because there was no data.
“…… Then, what about the mod?”
Suddenly, the idea went crazy. The mode that was the driving force that allowed me to play Brunet 4 for 10 years. I heard that the nya mod was made by a goddess, but what about the rest?
“This world has not changed because of the concept called ‘mode’ in your dimension. It was like this from the beginning. Because I put a lot of effort into making it.”
Eclipse proudly stretched out his chest. In other words, the mode laid at the time of possession was applied, and it did not change the common sense and concept of the world, but rather the opposite.
The appearance of this world, which was thought to be the result of a mod, was actually real. The appearances of NPCs in Vanilla Brunet 4 were all fake.
I felt like something was wrong with my common sense. I know I shouldn’t come here and look for common sense, but I just felt that way.
“The things in my world…… ?”
“Yes. It is to make sure that you are as comfortable as possible when you come someday.”
Air conditioners and fans, modern beds and room layouts, etc. Even these things weren’t a product of the mod. It was a goddess’ consideration for me.
“This is all I have to say. Now the judgment…… You please drop me off.”
After speaking, Eclipse calmly closed his eyes. Even though he had a resolute expression, as if he would understand what I said, he couldn’t hide the slight trembling around his eyes in fear.
‘Isn’t there anything that has been avoided in the end?’
However, I wasn’t going to question Eclipse or get angry. According to the description, there was nothing wrong with me.
Calling and rolling me 4 times is close to a lie, and kidnapping my soul at will is nothing more than giving a guy who died long ago a second chance.
Besides, it is said that it was because of my request that they were brought here again, so the only thing Eclipse’s fault is actually neglecting the birth of the World Eater.
‘You did well not to get angry.’
If I had gotten angry right there, I would have been very sorry after the misunderstanding had been resolved.
“Goddess.”
“…… Yes.”
Eclipse opened his eyes and answered cautiously.
“Can you come over here for a moment?”
Even in the situation where humans were giving orders to the goddess, Eclipse approached me with only blushing cheeks and no hesitation or displeasure.
Then, he knelt at my feet.
I was simply told to come, but not to kneel, so I thought about asking him to stand up, but stopped after seeing Eclipse’s expression. It was a very familiar expression.
The expression on the face of the popes when they are aiming for something, revealing that they are very much looking forward to something. It floated on Eclipse’s face.
From noble mtl dot com
I looked down at Eclipse kneeling at my feet. I felt it from the first time I saw it, but the clothes were really ridiculous.
The cloth covering her nipples swayed in the night wind, and her buttocks, which were not covered with a single thread, were pressed against her heels and slightly swelled to the sides.
The thighs and calves pressed each other, showing off elasticity and softness at the same time. Between the neatly folded thighs, there was only a thin, thin cloth that seemed to fly away if blown.
“Goddess.”
“…… Yes, you.”
“Did you say what I left behind when I returned to my original world?”
“You made me suffer so much that I can’t bear it unless you pay me back…… He said.”
“Yes.”
I put my right hand on Eclipse’s left cheek. He flinched, his body trembling slightly.
“But you know, Goddess. In a way, isn’t the goddess’ share in the cause of my suffering? Because the goddess brought me here.”
He cupped her cheek with the palm of her hand. He gently stroked her lips with her thumb and met her eyes. Eclipse trembled whenever his lips were stroked. An excited breath escaped from between his lips.
The affection in his eyes and the blush on his cheeks deepened.
“Yes, yes…… There is… ….”
“If the goddess is at fault, then she should also punish the goddess, right?”
“… ….”
Eclipse nodded his head wordlessly. His face started to turn red.
“So I’ll ask.”
I removed his hand from his cheek and carefully tucked his hair behind my ear, which had been sparsely clinging to it because I had just been touching it.
“What do you think I will punish the goddess?”
