Chapter 97 – Chapter 97 Yggdrasil (1-1)
“Then I’ll go.”
“Have a safe trip!”
“Please, I hope nothing goes wrong.”
“Welcome well Nyang!”
I entered the warp case while being escorted by three sisters (?).
Upon entering the warp case, the door was closed, and Armonia, wearing her ship’s uniform, spoke to the three of them.
(From now on, this place will be a controlled area. Everyone please leave.)
(Yes.)
First, along with Viola’s fresh answer, the other two also answered and left the warp room.
Armonia started her briefing in the quiet warp room.
(This mission is the space tree, Yggdrasil. The name of the initial village is Zephyrum, a village made for the first visitors to adapt to Yggdrasil.)
“… It’s a tutorial town.”
Armonia continued her explanation.
(The Cosmic Tree is divided into an upper layer and a lower layer, and the upper layer will be where the Guardian will proceed. The lower layer is being progressed by the Zodiac.)
(It has been about a year since Yggdrasil performed the summoning ritual, but the crusade has yet to commit a protagonist. The reason is yet to be determined.)
(However, according to the Zodiac’s information, there is a movement to put the main character in the temple. The source is unknown, but the Zodiac has expressed confidence that it can be trusted.)
(It is said that those who reach the upper and lower levels of Yggdrasil will receive one wish along with the authority to rule each area for 100 years.)
While listening to the briefing calmly, I couldn’t hold back my curiosity and asked questions.
“Oh oh! Wish? If you listen to everything, Enel 300 million will be over right away, right?”
(That’s impossible.)
“Why?”
(Wishes are valid only on planets where cosmic water is rooted. Yggdrasil is only a product of Enel that God sprinkled. Wishes will only come true within limits.)
“Eh….”
The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
I got Enel as a wish, and I was going to have direct sex with Armonia right away….
(Important fact is that a treaty has now hung between the Zodiac and the Crusade.)
“Treaty?”
(This is a pact not to touch each other’s formations.)
The plan was to separate and attack Yggdrasil, which was divided into upper and lower layers.
And during the attack, there was also a provision not to interfere ‘directly’.
Compared to other worlds, Yggdrasil, the current mission, has less information and is said to be more dangerous.
The main characters who had only one life made a treaty to exclude dangerous situations.
Since the upper and lower classes can be ruled separately anyway, it was said that we should not see unnecessary blood in each other.
“Don’t! You don’t interfere directly, but you indirectly asked us to interfere?”
(Yes, the crusade that forgot our existence accepted the clause, and fortunately we were able to exploit the loophole.)
“But thinking of it the other way around, it seems like they were planning to indirectly interfere with the guys in the temple after the attack was over.”
It’s not like they’re the ones who thoughtlessly put in a clause like that.
There’s no way the guys who call themselves agents of God are that stupid.
It seemed that they tried to attack and dominate the upper layer quickly by any means, and indirectly interfere with the main character of the Zodiac to eat the lower layer as well.
But why hasn’t the main character been put in until now….
The later it is, the worse it will be.
Somehow that part bothered me.
(And I have something important to say before I start working on this mission.)
“Yes? Like what?”
(Unlike so far, this mission has little information and high risk. If Suho is in a dangerous situation, I will activate the warp at will.)
The expressionless words of Armonia were loaded with weight.
(If there is a situation where our identities can be discovered in the temple, we will warp it.)
“… Yes, do it.”
(Thank you for your understanding.)
Of course I don’t want to die either.
It’s much better to be caught and go through life’s hardships than to die without being caught.
(This time, I will explain the systems that help you break through the ranks. They are Job, Protection, and Sponsorship.)
I knew the job roughly, but I had no idea what Gaho and Sponsorship were.
Armonia will explain everything anyway.
(Yggdrasil performs a summoning ceremony in Zephyrum and summons selected beings from all over the universe to the Colosseum at the center of Zephyrum town.)
(And after a basic explanation to the summoned beings, they will have time to check and change their basic abilities as their personal space is activated on the way out of the Colosseum.)
He explained that private space is a state that no one can see from the outside.
And as soon as you enter your personal space, you start with choosing a job that is important to the game.
(First, she gave the information that according to the advice given by the zodiac, it is better to choose a job that she recommends within personal space.)
First of all, it is said that not everyone can choose every job.
For a guy with no magical talent, the job of a wizard is said to be invisible on the list at all.
It is said that after recognizing your talent, it lists the jobs that suit you in the order of recommendation.
(Currently, most of the survivors around the main character on the Zodiac side said that they chose the recommended job. It seems like the advice was given to help them survive.)
“… And surviving like that must have meant that the job was very useful. OK.”
(And secondly, the protection of Yggdrasil. After choosing a job, you will receive a piece of paper.)
(And what she wrote on that piece of paper says she can write any unique passive she wants.)
“Wow, isn’t that a ridiculous scam?”
A passive that comes true as little as possible?
No matter how much I thought about it, it was an element that could not be understood in terms of balance.
-Doesn’t die.
To me who couldn’t understand it, Armonia explained in detail about divine protection.
(As Suho-nim said, there are conditions as much as it is ridiculously fraudulent. In order to register a protection, you need points suitable for that protection.)
When you first arrive at Zephyrum Village, all beings receive a point.
Points were a versatile currency that could be used inside Yggdrasil to raise abilities or buy things.
The important thing was that you couldn’t register if you didn’t have the required points at least on paper for the protection you wanted.
For example, if you write the absurd ability, ‘Anyone who makes eye contact with you becomes your limb’ on a piece of paper, Yggdrasil will ask for an astronomical number of points.
Then a question arises here.
Wouldn’t it be possible if I accumulated enough points without writing down blessings? Would like to
But even that had safeguards in place.
It is said that the deadline for writing protection is before breaking through the 3rd floor.
You don’t write a protection until you pass the 3rd floor?
Then you will be put in a disadvantageous situation where you have to attack Yggdrasil without protection.
“Then what points are paid first?”
(It’s 1000 points. But that’s subject to change.)
“Eh? Aren’t we all on the same starting line?”
(In order to explain that part, I think I should explain sponsorship first.)
Third, sponsorship.
(The place where Guardian is going now is the place where the war of the gods took place.)
He wasn’t the ‘real’ god that Armonia and I knew.
It was to tell the beings who lived in that world in the past that beings strong enough to rival the gods.
They have been fighting for a long time, and as a result, the Twilight War broke out in which all the gods killed each other in the end.
Eventually, all the gods died and their souls were enshrined inside Yggdrasil.
… That was the gist of the basic content.
And the gods, who had lived a boring life for the rest of their lives within it, asked Yggdrasil to summon beings from all over the universe, and enjoyed the minimum amount of amusement while watching them.
(And if they like it while observing Suho’s daily life, they will sponsor points.)
(It is said that there are cases in which gods give sponsorship because they like the first impression.)
(It is possible for those who received such initial support to write better protection than others.)
“So, that means… If you’re handsome or pretty, you’re saying they’ll give you a lot?”
(…According to the Zodiac side’s explanation… It is said to be so.)
Dirty appearance supremacy….
(However, they say that they do not sponsor huge points for initial sponsorship. It will be insufficient to receive fraudulent protection from the start.)
“Well, there aren’t just one or two handsome and pretty guys. It must be at the level of feeling a little deprived.”
(But Suho is different.)
“Yes? Why?”
(Suho-nim can convert Enel into points and write a great protection that is hard to compare with other beings.)
“Enel-chan….”
The true currency of God, Enel.
There was nothing Enel could not do.
An existence that cannot be compared to points.
“What is the ratio?”
(1:10. You can exchange 1 energy for 10 points.)
When others start with a thousand points, I might start with a few.
That means….
“Wow…. How much will the temple bastards be? I’m so damn worried.”
A temple that holds a huge amount of Enel….
How much Enel would they really use to write their blessings?
(That part worries me the most.)
(This is a summary of the information we have received so far. We will inform you of the rest as we proceed.)
“OK! Okay.”
(Then I wish you luck.)
With Armonia’s last words, the warp was activated.
..
..
As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw many people around me and heard a clamor.
The suddenly summoned people were shouting, “Where is this place?”
I pretended to be flustered because I thought it would be embarrassing to look too calm.
‘Oh, are they all human? Aren’t other races coming?’
[Maybe it was because of the fact that it was summoned for the first time, and the place where it is summoned is different for each race.]
‘But….’
I could understand right away.
It would be impossible to even start if summoned together with Orcs and Goblins.
As soon as it starts, the real Coliseum game unfolds.
When everyone here is clamoring, there is a being appearing with a pillar of light in the center of the Colosseum….
“Hello everyone! Welcome to Yggdrasil!”
Was a fairy
‘Wait, fuck!’
[… ? Why is that, Suho?]
‘Fuck a fairy, a fairy!!!!!!’
[?]
Armonia did not understand my words at all.
A storm began to rage in my heart, which had been calm until now.
When you think of fairies, the first thing that comes to mind.
‘Fuck, those idiots are going to explode the cob in order to overpower the initiative!!’
[There is no such thing.]
‘Yes?’
[According to Zodiac’s explanation, there was no such thing.]
The fairies who appeared there explained that they act as GMs to help those who suddenly visit this world.
‘It’s the same up to that point….’
Fortunately, Zodiac’s information said that there was no story of fairies bursting people’s heads.
Come to think of it, if there was such important information, I would have informed you in advance….
‘Phew….’
[Common sense makes no sense to suddenly explode a person’s head.]
Yes, common sense, but….
I said shyly, scratching my head.
‘That’s a staple of web games….’
[This is not a game. No matter how similar it is to a game, this place is different from a game….]
Armonia was the moment I tried to awaken my mind with the mind of curing game addicts.
A tall man approached the fairy with a bright smile, and she shouted with an angry expression.
“What are you doing! Bring me back to my original world!!!”
Haha. Now! Calm down and say….”
The fairy smiled calmly and tried to calm her man.
But the man didn’t listen at all.
“Shut up and quickly bring me to the original world.”
“Madam… , That’s annoying….”
The fairy frowned and raised his finger at the man.
Pop!
And my head exploded
“Kyaaaaah!”
“Sir, fuck!! My head exploded!!”
And the Colosseum became a mayhem.
[………….]
‘………….’
Armonia was silent for a while, then she cautiously continued.
[Different…… It doesn’t seem to work, so please handle it carefully. Trust the games you’ve played so far.]
“… Sibul.”
That’s how I arrived at the most dangerous world I’ve ever seen.
