Chapter 455
The next person to visit was Airi.
“In Bali… … .”
Airi was sitting by the window in the VIP room, looking out.
like everyone else
Everyone was looking outside in their own way, as if they couldn’t bear to see how the disaster that happened today was affecting the city.
The moment I arrived, Airi was staring blankly at the lizard monster running towards her while holding a child in her arms.
If Harriet was even a little late, Airi could have died.
I don’t know why Airi, who hated humans, ended up acting like that.
However, in the end, did Airi learn that there are things worth protecting, regardless of race?
He explained it to Airi as he did to others.
what i was going to do
And about what to do next.
“You were trying to stop this… … .”
“I failed, but what? It did.”
“It’s funny. It’s surprising that you weren’t really interested in rebuilding the Pandemonium, but in the end, you had no choice but to rebuild the Pandemonium.”
Airi quietly looks out the window.
“If the Dark Land is starting over here, the Dark Land that will be reconstructed from now on is the world that includes humans, right?”
“Perhaps it is.”
Depending on my ability, I can rule the demons, but humans cannot be ruled by my abilities.
You can subdue a castle, but you can rule a village.
but one country. All lands beyond my horizon are my country, and men whom I cannot see are under my dominion, and if they reject me.
What is a king supposed to do? In what way, with what logic, should humans be ruled?
I do not know.
“Something… … . It’s romantic.”
Airi looked out the window quietly, as if she was imagining the Dark Land with humans in it, but this time she looked at me.
“know? to Bali.”
“what?”
“It’s a word that sticks because it’s not easy to be romantic.”
“… … .”
A country that includes all demons and humans.
That would be romantic, but it would be infinitely close to impossible.
That’s why the formula romantic is attached because it is difficult to realize it as beautiful as it is.
“But am I a dream demon?”
Airi smiles at me.
“Bali, if that’s your dream.”
“… … .”
“Because I no longer have the ability to present such a dream to you. I will try to make that dream come true.”
A demon related to dreams, a succubus.
It is a demon that absorbs spirit by making someone dream, but making someone dream is now impossible.
So, try to make that dream come true.
The words sounded quite, deeply.
Airi stares out the window.
Soldiers carrying torches could be seen at the foot of the cliff in the distance.
“still… … . I wish I had that power today.”
“… … okay?”
the power to dream.
Why is that unfortunate in the current situation?
“Many children have lost parents and siblings. You won’t be able to fall asleep properly, and even if you fall asleep, you won’t be able to get out of that nightmare… … .”
“ah.”
“Even if I couldn’t save someone’s reality, I could have made them have a comfortable dream at least the moment they fall asleep. Even if there is hell after waking up, at least the moment you fall asleep… … . I should have been able to give you a little bit of happiness… … .”
Not to absorb the essence, but to have a comfortable dream.
To get away from the terrible nightmare-like reality and get some rest, even in a dream.
Even if the nightmare comes back again after waking up, so that I can get a little peace.
It seemed that he wanted to use his power for the sake of suffering souls, not for someone else’s spirit.
Isn’t the power of a succubus to present dreams a demonic power?
It is a power that cannot save anyone’s reality, but it will be terribly sweet.
However, it is such a power that you cannot save someone even if you really try to use it to save someone.
A human who receives a dream from a succubus, and a succubus who presents a dream.
It becomes a truly sad force when a succubus doesn’t want a soul, and uses it to wish someone’s happiness.
Neither demons nor humans can give or receive true salvation.
However, Airi was longing for her power, as it seemed that those who had experienced hell would need even a brief anesthesia.

could it be
A feature never used before.
Use ‘Add Settings’.
The horns of the succubus grow back.

Also, is it not okay?
[In order to add the setting, ‘common sense change’ must occur.]
[Addition of settings at that level cannot be performed.]
I seemed to know what it meant.
It is common knowledge that the horns of demons do not grow back.
However, if the setting that cut off horns grow back is added, the common sense of all succubus and Airi, who have believed that horns do not grow until now, must change.
It’s not like adding a setting, it’s a level of writing a new world.
so it can’t be done
But the important thing is, he didn’t just say that he couldn’t do it, he deliberately added an extension.
Can you do it if you try?
So, does that mean that it can be done if it is used in a way that does not change common sense?
This taffy seller never lets me use this system function that I can do at a very important moment.
Just like I couldn’t turn the situation around with a retreat.
Still, I think it will be okay to use it with this feeling in this situation.
It is not meant to be too comprehensive, but should be applied in a fairly limited way.
The more detailed, the more restrictive, the more likely it will be to add.
What common sense changes do not happen there.
If so, a sufficient reason would have to be added.
Anything that can make horns grow that shouldn’t grow.
Reasonable reason.
No, you don’t even have to be rational, and you can make things happen that should never happen in normal times.
Anything is good, so it’s a plausible reason.
Anyway, the rationale for making it so.
ah.
I seemed to know what to do.
Use the settings add-on.
‘I’ can ‘regrow’ ‘the horns of the succubus race’ with the power of ‘words’.
Added very limited and restrictive settings.
It’s a power that makes anything possible, but it’s a power that even I don’t know how far it can go.
If it is a commandment, it can serve as the basis.
[Adding this setting requires 10,000 achievement points.]
do.
It’s not a small cost by any means, but I have over 100,000 achievement points.
There is no reason not to use it.
[Uses 10,000 achievement points.]
[Settings have been added.]
It’s a feature that I only used again after a very long time.
I look at Airi quietly.
“You have horns.”
“ah… … . Why are the horns?”
“It will grow again.”
“… … ?”
Airi tilted her head, as if asking what she was talking about.
Airi wouldn’t know what happened to her.
“I just know that.”
“uh… … . huh.”
If you explain in detail, you won’t understand anyway.
Only after the horns grow back will you know what I meant.
I must convey the same words to the other succubus.
You never know what kind of help the power to make someone dream will be of any help later on.
Reina, the former Four Heavenly Kings, Succubus Queen, and Airi’s mother, used the power of the Dream Demon to terrify and dry humans to death.
However, Airi uses it to save those who are suffering.
“Thank you, Valie, for doing so, even if only for words.”
Airi smiled brightly even after hearing what I said, which could have sounded like some kind of vicious prank depending on what I heard.
“Because you say so. It seems like it will be… … . I have a strange feeling.”
When the horns really grow back, what kind of expression will Airi have?
A little, I was curious.
* * *
Harriet said there might be something we could do.
Olivia said she didn’t have to do anything, let’s not do anything.
Airi seemed to have changed her thoughts a lot from before.
I don’t know what he thinks about humans, but he seems to have a lot of affection for children.
Lluen and Galarche were not in the palace, and the last one left was Eleris.
“ah… … . majesty.”
Not degradation, but charge.
Perhaps because he is now king, he has sorted out the titles, but Elleris, who was in the VIP room, looked at me and said that.
Was it possible to become a king in just one day?
I became the king, not to rebuild the demon realm, but to deal with the Gate incident that eventually occurred.
In the end, I will not be able to escape the bondage of being the main culprit of the gate scandal.
Was the gate situation bound to happen in some way?
If I hadn’t done anything, would the gate incident have happened in any way?
I do not know.
However, Elleris is the one who directly caused the gate incident, and I intend to do something about the cause.
Ellerith was sitting alone at the table and was doing something, writing something down on a piece of paper.
“What were you doing?”
“ah… … . new magic… … . I was envisioning it.”
“Magic?”
At my question, Elleris continued speaking with a melancholy expression.
“There must be a lot of people who have lost their homes… … . That’s why we need a place to accommodate refugees, even temporarily… … . I thought I’d try to create magic that could construct that kind of temporary shelter… … .”
“ah.”
I couldn’t help but see the misery on Elerith’s expression.
It is inevitable that he will do something very strange, that he will try to rectify the disaster he has committed.
She would rather die.
The work of trying to save people ended up like this, and in the end, no matter how pressured Elleris was, she activated Akasha with her own hands and with her own will. to save me
I heard that the used Akasha has disappeared.
Since Akasha itself was no different from another world, strictly speaking, it did not disappear, but Akasha became the Gate Incident itself.
A gate avalanche is not something that can be undone.
That’s why the guilt Elerith felt now must have been difficult to handle on her own.
Letting Ellerith die might have been a good choice for her.
It is difficult for me to fathom what kind of miserable feelings and guilt Elleris must be feeling when she does this with an overwhelming sense of guilt.
Elerith and I will be sinners.
Ellen seemed to blame herself for all of this, but I don’t think so.
Even in this situation, I am grateful to the three who believed in me and followed me.
But I don’t blame Ellen and Charlotte for not trusting me. I couldn’t believe it, and I think there was a lot of grounds for that.
Nothing can be solved with resentment and hatred. Actually, the enemies I have to deal with are not Ellen or Charlotte, but the monsters of the Gate.
So, the responsibility for all of this lies with Elleris and I.
Elerith seemed to be envisioning that kind of magic to make homes for homeless people, at least temporarily.
It may be a small magic, but it is an absolutely necessary magic in the current situation.
It won’t end there.
If I hadn’t met Ellerith, if I hadn’t met the demon spies, the Gate incident wouldn’t have happened.
Still, on the road to Akasha, I told Ellerith that I wouldn’t regret any of this.
I decided not to regret even if our meeting will be remembered as something to regret.
Everything has been twisted and twisted to arrive here, but I have decided not to regret it, so I do not regret it.
“I have no regrets.”
“… … .”
That’s why, watching me repeat the words of that time, Elleris lowered her head with a miserable expression.
“Because there are still things I can do. I don’t think that the price we have to pay will necessarily bring only bad things… … .”
I placed my hands on Elerith’s shoulders as she bowed her head.
“Whatever we can, let’s do it.”
I can’t help Elerith’s guilt.
No matter how much pressure was put on her, Elerith made a choice.
world and me
At a crossroads between the two, Elleris was originally a person who had to choose the world.
It was definitely something like that.
I regretted the countless slaughter and tried to pay for even a small amount of my sins, so even if it meant abandoning me, Elerith shouldn’t have activated Akasha.
However, Elerith abandoned the world and chose me.
Everyone else will pick Elerith as the ultimate sinner, and everyone in the world must not be able to forgive Elleris, the culprit behind the Gate crisis.
But I shouldn’t.
No matter how responsible she felt, no matter how pressured she was by those around her, Elleris took the decision into her own hands.
You don’t even have to ask why.
It must have been because they loved me enough to exchange it with the whole world, and valued me.
It’s true that he destroyed the world.
To the one who had no choice but to do that because he loved me that much.
Why did you do that?
Shouldn’t you have let me die?
I can’t say that.
The whole world, even my own people, may come to hate its source, Elerith, in the face of the horrors to come, but not me.
I must love Elerith.
I must be on Ellerith’s side.
“too… … . too… … . sorry. i have everything… … . I wish for Your Highness… … . ruined… … .”
“no. are you okay.”
not okay though
I have to say it’s okay.
In the heart of Elerith, in this love.
I am grateful.
“Your Highness… … . no… … . you… … . losing you… … . too… … too… … . I’m scared… … . It’s so sad that everything has to end like this… … . I’m so sorry… … . I’m so sad… … . you… … .”
The crying Elerith hugged me.
“No matter what… … . I didn’t want to lose… … .”
Ellerith hugged me and cried for a long time.
I also hugged that Elerith.
Like never to let go again.
