– Gaiden episode 51
Gaiden episode 51
“… … Did you order that to be filmed?”
When the crystal ball is activated, the recorded video emitted from it unfolds and reproduces the contents.
As I explained earlier, the daily life of several days here is recorded.
How your guests are doing and what they are doing.
“First of all, I took a picture so that you can get to know the whole city well. Likewise, I had a similar video filmed on the Fahilia side as well.”
Besides that, I even asked for help to film the sights of various livable cities.
“What are you going to use it for?”
“I have something to use for a good cause.”
More than anything, there is a sense of haste to take this picture.
I smirked and started thinking about how to use this in earnest.
“I should make a promotional video that would make people envious just by looking at it.”
spread the joys of this world.
to whom?
There won’t be any need to explain.
It has been quite some time since Mileus tricked the people and imprisoned them in a huge stone statue.
[…] … It seems that there is no rebellion.]
The number of subjugation troops who were tired of coming was also reduced. Well, it’s not like I want to fight.
I put in what I could get my hands on anyway.
There are many people who have been conciliated to use as guinea pigs.
It doesn’t matter as long as you don’t interfere.
[Then next… … Um?]
It was time to turn off the outside world and focus on the experiment again. Something strange flashed in his eyes.
A strange image floating in the sky around you.
It must have taken a picture of the surrounding scenery and converted it into a mana signal and reproduced it, but it was suddenly spread in the sky.
[What are you doing… … .]
The stone statue also stood still in a daze, as if following Mileus’ will.
To be honest, I was dumbfounded.
What is reflected is the scenery of a certain tourist destination.
[…] … Why the hell is this?]
I seemed to know where it was.
Truly a tourist destination. Isn’t it the scenery of the people who live there?
But what are you showing me for?
[no way… … Doing
such a useless thing to advertise for the manor house business?
Is Arele Ernesia mad with greed?
what a greedy human being Well, it doesn’t matter as long as it doesn’t get in the way.
Mileus tried to turn off his attention and focus only on the experiments inside, but soon realized a sense of incongruity.
From the moment that video is broadcast, something is breaking into the inside of the stone statue.
[…] … No way.]
Only then did he realize his intention.
I don’t understand all the purposes, but I don’t know what the person who opened that video was aiming for.
[That… … To show it to them?]
The humans trapped in these stone statues are none other than… … It will be shown to those who fell for his appeasement and fell in love with the name of a comfortable world.
[that is… … What does it mean?]
But he didn’t understand.
At first, I exclaimed every day, feeling the convenience and novelty of life provided inside the stone statue.
But as time passed, they felt like they were losing something.
“… … You are tired.”
Mental fatigue and boredom for no reason.
It wasn’t just that he was overworked, but a strange sense of emptiness.
For some reason, since I came here, there was strangely no sense of fulfillment.
Every day is the same.
It was enough to just do as he managed and do as he said.
There is no risk. It’s an incredibly convenient life.
But something is missing.
It was probably not one or two who realized that sense of incongruity, but they did not easily bring it out of their mouths.
All the stories that come out of this stone statue are passed on to him.
And then… … .
Suddenly, something unusual happened.
A strange scene unfolded on the ceiling.
< welcome. happy world! 〉An incomprehensible voice came out, and what unfolded was the voice of something having fun. It was a kind of commercial video. Commentary presumably recorded by Arell Ernesia himself. It constantly promotes its own tourist destinations. Show off, show off, and invite. In fact, the daily life of the tourists captured in the video seemed enjoyable. “… … i envy you." someone muttered involuntarily. In fact, it's a sight that doesn't exist here. Of course, life is not lacking and there is no risk. Occasionally dealing with things I don't understand, taking medicine, and that's all. but not enjoyable “… … You look happy.” On the other hand, the people outside looked really happy. What the hell is going on outside? “Don't be fooled! We have nothing to do with the guys playing over there anyway.” Someone who came to his senses belatedly shouted. That's right. They have nothing to do with them. If I get out of here, I will struggle to live each day again. Even more so, since he escaped from the territory, when he returned, he would only say terrible things. “It has nothing to do with us!” Shout out over and over again and shout not to be deceived. After hearing that, everyone raised their voices in sympathy, as if they had realized the reality. "but… … That's right.” “Above all, it costs money.” "It's literally only people who live like that." I'm in a hurry to make a living, but there's no way I can afford to spend it on a game like that. That's the reality. “It has nothing to do with us!” It was a time when they tried to avert their eyes as if to distance themselves from the evil that was trying to deceive them. 〈It sounds obvious, but I will give you a commemorative gift to all of you who are watching this video. >gift?
Something fell on top of their puzzled heads.
It is a paper.
A piece of paper on which strange, shiny figures are written.
What does this mean?
“… … Not even if you throw away the trash.”
“I want you to think about the position of cleaning up.”
It’s a waste, it’s a waste.
It was such a grumbling time.
〈It is a ticket to use our sightseeing spots. >Stand up. The movement of those who were about to throw away the trash stopped.
Actually, it wasn’t trash.
‘All you have to do is submit it. You can use the basic services of our tourist attractions for a set period of time. 〉It must have been very precious trash.
Everyone took their share at some point. If it’s trash, we throw it away, but if it’s valuable, it’s human nature to put it in our arms and see it.
< It's easy to get there. If you tear the side of the ticket with the figure drawn on it, the transfer magic will be activated immediately. Even if a strange light appears under your feet, don't worry, it's a phenomenon caused by teleportation. >It seems that you can even use it right away.
Everyone leave it and gulp! I swallowed dry saliva.
“play… … Shall we go?”
Someone muttered hesitantly.
But everyone thought the same thing.
“Did the people filmed there look happy?”
“Isn’t it possible to use it with just this?”
“… … Then there is no reason not to use it.”
It was a time when I was hesitant to look at the tickets one by one.
[Don’t be fooled.]
The video suddenly disappeared as if it were being erased, and Mileus’ voice resounded throughout the interior.
[That’s just the words of an evil power to deceive you!]
He just condemned the sender of the video, saying that it was just a lie.
[Could you be fooled by such a lie?]
“… … that’s it.”
People shuddered and took a step or two back.
[Are all of you who have abandoned the chaotic outside now set your eyes on the ugly outside again’?]
“Ha??… But if it’s only for a moment… …
Someone said as if wringing out courage, but what came back was Mileus’ menacing question.
[What did he just say?]
“Oh no!”
Intuitively.
It’s dangerous to be stubborn here.
I don’t know why, but now that person’s voice just displeased with the video.
To the extent that it even emits hostility.
[Please keep in mind. We cannot admit those who are seduced by lies like that.]
“Ha?????? haona??????
[What is it?]
“Oh no.”
Humans couldn’t even mention the existence of tickets.
Come to think of it, why aren’t there any warnings about tickets?
like it doesn’t even look the same.
However, even if they have doubts, they cannot have the courage to speak up now.
So, for now, everyone just quietly listened to the warning while hiding their own tickets.
With the vague anxiety that is starting to sprout separately from the curiosity from a while ago.
His voice just before… … .
It wasn’t the voice of the benevolent young man who used to admonish them.
I hope it’s an illusion, but what if it’s not?
Surely there were not a few people who harbored such fear.
[No matter how much you think about it, this is bullshit?]
“No. Is it just publicity?”
[Thinking about it again, it’s true that it’s a leaflet?]
[It’s also a leaflet.]
“That’s why it’s not.”
Rather, how the hell do you know that?
Fortunately, the promotion of the tourist destination was successful.
Deploy a video for publicity in the sky, and take advantage of the moment when your nerves are focused on it.
Using the sorcery that Rirensen was made to make, videos and free promotional tickets were also infiltrated inside the stone statue and scattered.
“By the way, the ticket won’t be found, right?”
[Arel Ernesia. As you said, if that is the condition of the person named Mileus, then the existence of the ticket cannot be easily recognized.]
The guy in the state of spirit is probably observing with nearby devices or using a means of spiritually sensing.
[Precise equipment is sometimes easier to fool than the human eye.]
That’s why Rirensen inscribed spells to deceive the soul into the ticket one by one.
[I thought my fingers were swollen from writing on so many pieces of paper one by one!]
“Yes. yes, thank you for your hard work. But can’t you help it? That’s your specialty.”
So I entrusted it to you. because it’s annoying
[You should learn it.]
“Ugh. How can I get wrinkles in front of an expert?”
Just because I’m crazy, will I personally engrave my spells on tens of thousands of sheets of paper? I can’t say I can do it even if I die.
[…] … Leaving that modest side aside. So why a leaflet like that?]
“It’s because it’s not a leaflet. it’s just publicity Because they don’t know the news of the outside world.”
There is such a fun thing going on outside right now! that informs.
[Deliberately giving away free tickets?]
“It’s a common event.”
Something that is often done in modern times. Of course, I’ll admit that it’s a bit excessive.
“don’t worry. That amount of money can be taken elsewhere.”
Other greedy nobles or the people who caused this situation.
They extorted their investment under the guise of half-threatening. So there is no need to lighten my wallet.
“Above all, they will gradually realize the contradiction. … … It is also a means of escape for that.”
What they are aiming for is the collapse of Mileus’ claim.
It’s like making people realize the contradiction and tempting people to want the outside world again.
[…] … That’s a bee.]
“It’s not.”
Compared to earlier, my denial was weaker.
Make concessions and say it’s similar.
“Anyway, you will know the results soon. And then.”
[At that time, we also intervene.]
“Remember.”
Because it will definitely be like that.
[Arel Ernesia. What you didn’t intervene was that their actions weren’t something to intervene from your point of view, right?] “
If he really is a being that contributes to the development of humans here… … Should I turn a blind eye to the somewhat troublesome things?”
[When did you think so… … .]
“I always thought?”
I don’t think anyone cares as much as I do.
Well, my personal convenience is an exception.
Please look at that level of aegyo.
[So, is it his nature that you want to see?]
“It’s roughly like that.”
The provocation went this far. It shook the psychology of people who believed blindly.
This is the next one.
“I wonder if he really has a cause of his own… … We’ll know soon enough.”
And if not… … .
“What then… … I have to sort it out.”
And after about a month… … .
I am about to hear some sad news.
A human who claimed to have escaped from his stone statue had come.
The reason has come. How
a former pro
sucks honey
