Sage Advice: 3]
The identity of this ‘ranch’ revealed through the ‘diverse perspectives’ bracelet.
Originally, I thought it was some kind of laboratory.
A huge laboratory is built on solid ground like a human-made building, and inside there is a space to extract the intelligence of various intelligent beings.
And there is speculation that there is an overwhelmingly large room in the basement where the ‘teacher’ is trapped.
It was completely different from reality.
This facility was a ridiculously large alien spaceship!
Dozens of rooms rotate around the room where the ‘teacher’ is trapped, and the collection of rooms continuously moves through the huge space.
It seems to be a simulation of the planets, including the Earth, revolving around the sun while the sun races endlessly through the outskirts of the galaxy.
The role of the ‘teacher’ in this huge spaceship is not as an experiment or research subject, but as an ‘engine’ that powers the entire spaceship.
I also understood the meaning of disabling the control device.
Disabling the control device means separating the two rooms that control the ‘engine’ from the engine.
however…
In a spaceship flying through space, if only one connected room is separated, what happens to that separate room?
Wouldn’t that room have become a lost child in space, with no engine and no means of survival?
I looked at Estavio in confusion.
“If I take the controls off, what happens to this room?”
You’re asking the obvious. I will become a lost child in the universe. It may crash somewhere, but before it does, it will starve to death.
No need to worry. Even death is salvation for the ‘faces’ in this room, and all you have to do is move through the bracelet.
“how about you?”
What are you worried about? Did you feel dear to me for a moment? Well then, fortunately for me.
It’s nothing. It’s just a moment of rest…
Even that won’t last forever. Someday, the nightmare in this room will begin again, and the ‘Devomer’ will restore my self again.
“My love for you… Aside from this, how can I get out of here without your help?”
Even if I’m not there, the Devourer will help you in some way. In the end, isn’t it up to the participants to overcome the ordeal themselves?
You won’t know unless you ask me. Actually, it’s ridiculous in my situation. I am already a loser who could not overcome the ordeal.
Are you a contestant who still has a chance, but do you seek help from the loser? Believe in yourself…
Estavio declined further comment. I didn’t want any more help either.
——–Cheolkeong
A tremendous noise echoes throughout the facility. The connection with the engine was lost in the middle of outer space.
The future of this room…
Let’s not think any further. Because I’m too busy taking care of myself.
I just adjusted the bracelet, which I am now slowly getting used to using. It’s time to jump to the room where the second control device connected to the engine is located.
What on earth is there?
There’s one last thing left to do
“Didn’t you say there was no further help?”
Before that, didn’t I say that I could use it ‘twice’? I have to keep my promise…
The moment Estavio’s tentacles stirred the air, unidentified knowledge entered my mind.
Congestion of the space where the second control device is located. As soon as I knew who I was, I also realized what I had to do.
Ah… this hotel really pushes me to the extreme. But, there isn’t much left now.
*
It’s really different here.
This room was very different from the nightmare farms that embodied the imaginary hell seen in ‘Spaceship’.
The interior has a gentle atmosphere and warm temperature, even though it may have been built by a race with a completely different aesthetic sense.
A soft carpet or several pieces of equipment that probably look like toys.
Of course. This is the body of Athanasia, that is, a space to protect and educate young children.
I came to make this place hell.
As I entered the room, small starfish wiggled towards me, as if I was seeing a strange animal.
Is Athanasia unable to walk upright when she is in the body?
If you think about it, it might be similar to how human children crawl when they are young. Even though it was a body, it was already bigger than me.
I thought as I passed between the bodies. Why are ‘Farm of Pain’ and ‘Kindergarten’ in charge of controlling the engine? The conclusion was not difficult to come to.
Those two places are the safest places in Athanasia’s opinion.
The other rooms were mostly ranches where extraterrestrial intelligences were gathered and exploited in Athanasia’s position.
He must have been considering the possibility that extraterrestrial intelligences could revolt, just as I am doing now.
On the other hand, in the Farm of Pain, all intelligent beings except Athanasia have their heads cut off and are tortured forever, and since they do not have bodies, they are unable to resist.
In kindergarten, there is only Athanasia fluid, so there is no risk factor.
They probably didn’t even think about the situation where some crazy ‘livestock’ steals the bracelet with the help of the ‘Engine’…
Isn’t it time to show up now? I was just wandering around among the ‘kids’.
Of course, but can there be only children in kindergarten?
Of course, ‘teacher’ must appear. You can proceed only when there is a ‘teacher’ with ‘control authority’ over the room.
Who are you?
A sharp voice pierces me like a needle in my head.
The voice is somewhat awkward compared to Estavio, who almost felt like he was talking to a person.
When I turned around, I saw the Eucharist Athanasia.
“well. A stray chicken that escaped from a poultry farm?”
Come from there.
“Are you going to start using ‘diverse perspectives’ as soon as you get out there?
“I knew this after using this object, but unexpectedly, I couldn’t specify the target when it was among so many intelligent beings.”
You know, if you take care of these things, you will be forgiven.
“It’s really hard to understand what you’re saying. “I’m sorry, but there’s still a lot of work to do.”
I can’t hear what you’re saying, I, you-
———–Raaaaaaa!
The colorful and brilliant sound of ‘Teacher’ rings out again! How on earth do we feel ‘color’ in sound? I waited for this mysterious sound to resonate!
As soon as the sound rang out, the saint Athanasia hardened like a stone.
Here, like in ‘Farm of Pain’, there is no one like Estavio to guide me to the control device. therefore-
Now I have to break this kindergarten teacher’s heart.
*
—-Phew!
killed one
—-Phew!
Killed them both.
How many did they kill? I counted up to five, but I’m not sure anymore.
One thing is for sure: the entire room is full of starfish that you can kill.
The attempt to free the teacher by controlling the adult Athanasia with a bracelet in the ‘Engine Room’ failed.
The bracelet’s abilities are truly powerful, but I am a complete beginner as a user.
With my skills, I could not completely deceive the transcendent spirit of the Holy Host Athanasia.
But… wouldn’t it be possible to control it even against a living body?
Even if it is Athanasia, it is a mortal creature that is only slightly stronger than humans. He was not a divine being from birth.
From then on it was so easy.
I lightly stroked the child’s head and ‘educated’ the child to make the other Athanasia’s head look like delicious food, and the child started eating happily.
——
The Eucharist that the teacher had stopped began to emit an unidentifiable sound.
mouth? I don’t know, but a strange liquid was flowing out from the hole in the body, and the tentacles were starting to tremble.
What on earth would I look like to that being?
A chicken that had been raised in a poultry farm until yesterday escaped, suddenly picked up a gun, broke into the kindergarten, and shot and killed a large number of children.
It probably feels like I’m seeing a nightmare that I couldn’t even imagine in my dreams.
“What I was most worried about when I came here was what if we couldn’t communicate? It was.
I’ve never talked to you before I met Estavio.
But now that we look at it, you have been able to talk to us.”
—Phew! Haha!
The friend I was playing with must have some pretty tasty hair. I made it that way though.
“Do you still understand what I’m saying? “I want to go to the controls.”
Actually, I have no intention of receiving help from the Holy Host Athanasia.
conversation. Communication. Negotiation. These peaceful means are only used when there is no way to dominate the other person.
You have the tool to control the other person’s mind, so why on earth do you engage in dialogue or negotiation?
I just wait for the other person’s spirit to break down and become unable to resist even my rudimentary control.
—Jeeeeeeeek!
This time, he ripped off the other child’s tentacle and started eating it. They grabbed the kid who looked the biggest and started controlling them, but that was quite extreme.
Even in the world of children, there are differences in weight classes.
When a child, who is about 4 or 5 years old in human terms, starts behaving violently, individuals that are closer to newborns are busy crawling around and making strange noises.
Sloshing-
The sound of something collapsing. When I turned my head, I saw the trembling tentacles of the adult body flowing down like boiled noodles.
I knew it naturally. It collapsed. In a terrible nightmare, the Eucharist’s spirit finally broke down.
What happened next was a breeze.
The Eucharist, unable to resist any more, accepted my control through ‘various perspectives’ and I separated the ‘kindergarten’ from the engine.
Now it’s the last time. Just one step.
I have to visit the ‘engine room’ again.
*
As soon as I leapt outside the ‘engine room’, I was met by a very familiar and nostalgic face.
“Song! Ugh… Ugh… I missed you so, so much. “I was waiting for you to come from this scary place.”
