I Translated the Necronomicon - Chapter 41



41. What is this… The Goddess of Justice?

Congratulations for winning the arena resounded, and fireworks were shot all around. As Yudahee returned from the arena to the waiting room, worshippers rushed towards him like a dawn curse zombie horde…

The Valkyrie unit of the Disorder Management Division was once again storming the scene with stern eyes.

Preparing to enjoy chicken and beer while watching the arena after a long time… A sudden emergency situation was announced.

Their anger, armed with equipment and rising like a golden olive, was beyond description.

“Panteon open up!”

“Don’t move! If you move, I’ll shoot! Bang!”

“aaah! Damn, I was lying down, why did you shoot – aaargh!”

Armed with divine power, not only with swords and shields but also with special stun grenades for divine suppression, the Valkyries skillfully subdued the suspects, but soon faced resistance.

“What is this nonsense!”

A nine-tailed fox with nine tails popped out, not showing hostility towards the Valkyries.

The enormous power that even made the Valkyries lift their shields to the tip of their chins was concentrated in those nine tails.

“Do you know where this is!”

The leader of the coalition of monsters, the chief of the Immaemangryang.

It was Dalgi.

“You must know exactly what’s going on.”

But among the Valkyries who opposed him, there was no one whose status was diminished.

With a sigh, Uriel, who was smoking, looked at Dalgi, who had been given the unpleasant task of falling into the horns of a fallen goblin.

Long red hair flowed down Uriel’s uniform.

“Did you really think you could throw the outsider into the arena and get away with it, Dalgi?”

“What are you talking about-“

“Janmang, age 33, a contracted member of the Immaemangryang, possession of prohibited items, a monthly visitor to Bacbu and Danusemung. Approximately 26 appearances in the arena… Isn’t that right?”

“Well, that’s true… but what does that have to do with the outsider!!”

From the perspective of Immaemangryang, the current situation was somewhat awkward.

What they were aiming for was nothing but the tremendous skills shown by the contracted member Yudahi in the previous arena.

They aimed for that, sparing no support, even handing over the weapons they cherished to Janmang, but suddenly, from the middle of the match, the contact with Janmang was lost, and the relay camera of the arena was blacked out.

At the moment when it was not clear what was happening, the victory alarm of the arena rang out… and the Valkyries suddenly attacked without giving them a chance.

Even from their perspective, they were extremely unjust…

“Are you hesitating to acknowledge the clear evidence of the arrival of the dark deity, Shub Niguras, into the body of the contracted member Janmang?”

“I don’t understand what you’re talking about!”

Immaemangryang only wanted to exclude Yudahi’s skills.

[Look into the memories of the former champion Yudahi! And clearly see what technology made a mess of the previous arena and engrave it on the talisman!]

“W-we just wanted to read that guy’s memories, but something went wrong in the middle…”

“Reading memories?”

As Uriel pondered the meaning for a moment, the disdainful image of the one he last confronted came to mind.

Yudahee.

The dual contractor of Deca and Adikia, and the previous winner.

And… the wretch who had somehow found him confined in a corner of the management bureau’s dressing room, demanding to be sent back to where he originally belonged.

Uriel had quickly obliged to return him to his original place, not wanting to be entangled.

But Uriel had shut off his concern for Yudahee.

After all, that was for Michaela and Gabrielle to handle.

He just needed to focus on the amount of Immanity as instructed by Michaela.

However it went, the body invaded by the foreign entity was a contractor of Immanity.

As the management bureau, which applied rules as strict as they come when it came to the foreign entities, it wouldn’t be easy to overlook.

“You cannot exercise your right to remain silent, and your statement will be used against you by the management bureau. Furthermore, you cannot appoint a defense attorney… Ah, is this correct? It’s a bit fuzzy… It’s been a while, so forgive me if I’m a bit rusty.”

“But everything’s the opposite!”

Dalghee yelled as if he had gone mad, but Uriel didn’t care.

Uriel’s role was the sword of the management bureau, which eradicated evil, and his orders were to arrest, detain, and search all Immanity contractors.

“Either be arrested or die. Choose one.”

“Ugh…! Do I have to endure this?! It’s unfair! It’s unfair!”

As Dalghee’s ominous aura surged from his tail, the Valkyries tensed up, raising their swords, but Uriel just opened the cigarette case with a sullen expression.

That was all there was to it. No use rebelling.

Finally, she dragged herself to the ground, face planted, tears flowing.

“Oh, is this the end? After this business trip, I’ll have to buy another one.”

He tried to put the cigarette in his mouth to light it, saying that something like a post-meal snack is not enough for this kind of work, but…

Snap!

The tip of the cigarette was cut off by the sword wielded by Dalki.

It was some kind of protest, a demonstration that he wouldn’t be arrested, but he touched the wrong nerve.

Staring blankly at the cut-off cigarette, Urie twisted her expression and squeezed the remaining cigarette filter tightly in her hand.

“…This was the filter, damn it.”

“Huh.”

Even though I tried to treat her nicely as the leader of our little group…

Make a fox fur coat for me.

That was Urie, raising her fist with that determination.

“Wow, the coffee tastes great~”

The paper cup of instant coffee after finishing work is pure happiness.

Yudahee was leisurely sipping the instant coffee with a very relaxed expression.

On the sofa in the director’s office, even stretching out her arms and legs.

And Mikaela, looking at him like that, had eyes that were chillingly cold.

Is this… the same person who was swinging that sword just a moment ago…?

If I hadn’t seen it in real-time, I might not have known whether to curse and smash my head on the ground, but having seen everything vividly, there was nothing to say.

Still holding the bankruptcy sword, Mikaela appeared with an air of innocence.

“Well, I can roughly guess why you called me-“

It was none other than the Management Bureau that brought Yudahee in front of the wave of divine worshippers attacking like zombies.

“Woo- Management Bureau trash!”

“Abolish Yudahee’s monopoly! Abolish it!”

“Yudahee is a public asset! Share it with us too!”

“Oppa! Please stab me with that big and beautiful sword too!!!”

…There were protests from the fanatic worshippers, but they were easily ignored.

Only Deke and Adikia, who were in a contractual relationship, could follow the Management Bureau.

“I didn’t do anything. How you see people, sigh.”

“I haven’t said anything yet.”

“Obviously, it’s predictable. The contractee of that resentment, not the demon king… well, should I say the wretched one. They dragged me here because of the foreign media’s obsession.”

Yudahee’s irritatingly nonchalant laughter while sipping coffee, why does it feel annoying?

“Oh, I’ll say it again. It’s not me. I swore, right? Not to summon Atlac’nacha anymore?”

[I, Yudahee, hereby swear that I will not engage in any consciousness regarding Atlac’nacha anywhere influenced by the Management Bureau, including the arena, in the future.]

True to those words, Yudahee did not break the oath.

“But that’s only about Atlac’nacha, isn’t it? It doesn’t apply to anything else.”

Sigh.

Yudahee shrugged his shoulders as if to say he couldn’t help it at Mikaela’s words that found a loophole.

“No, logically, it doesn’t make sense that I summoned someone who was about to fight to the death, right? Possessing him? And right after that, I immediately run away, and in the end, I go all out, risking everything? Isn’t that right, Gabriel?”

Gavriel, who was sipping his first instant coffee instead of elephant dung-like coffee, responded with a surprised expression.

“Uh, uh-huh…! Hey, it’s not a big deal.”

If you’re dissatisfied, just watch a video.

The fact that Shub Niguras had possessed the body of the arrogant man was a genius twist even Yudahee hadn’t considered, akin to a natural disaster.

As soon as the possession was confirmed, he popped out immediately.

“And even if I did it, asking for responsibility is-…”

“It goes against the rules of the arena….”

Michaela’s eyes sank into a cold glare.

Even the interstellar scanner she used right after winning showed no traces of abilities on Shub Niguras. Instead, it seemed to flow madly from the arrogance.

And how, by what means she summoned it, Mikaela didn’t know, but what Yudahee actually summoned was her contracted deity, Deke Astraea.

And right after that, it seemed like she summoned something else… Mikaela couldn’t confirm.

Although something suspicious did arise.

Deke, who was blankly staring with an expressionless face, definitely didn’t have that expression before.

And even within the summoned arena, her performance was shocking in itself.

She fought on par with the foreign reporters who had temporarily taken on the role of the Demon King.

Moreover, the unknown sense of awe emanating from there was similar to the black wind deity of abundance…!

If it weren’t for the last-minute actions of Yudahee, all that attention would have been focused on Deke, who suddenly displayed remarkable skills.

Should she run the scanner again now… Mikaela hesitated.

“Hmm…”

Mikaela’s gaze, mixed with suspicion, turned toward Dike.

—–

Dike was dripping with cold sweat inwardly.

“Dike… If that discerning woman catches us, do you know what’ll happen? We’ll be dragged to the underground prison of the Administration Bureau and be put on display in the Divine Exhibition!”

“Shh, keep your voice down! We’ll get caught! Just stay quiet, please…!”

Inside Dike Astraia’s mind was nothing short of a battlefield.

The foreign entity Ni’Alatotep, who had suddenly broken into his mind, was muttering, “Give me food,” in a completely nonsensical situation.

“Hey, woman, didn’t I tell you? Huh? When I come back, if food isn’t prepared for me! Bam!”

“Ow! Please, just go away!”

The sight of struggling for control over the body was truly pitiful from Ni’Alatotep’s perspective, but it was a rare outing in the outside world.

Since the Earth Goddess, Gaia, had mortgaged the Earth and developed it into a tourist zone, she had been extremely bored from not being able to go out, but to have such entertainment, could she endure it…!

So, she decided to play along with Dike’s level.

Pushing, pulling, tugging, relinquishing and taking back control of the body… Wasn’t it like playing with a puppy?

And even going further, to the extent of a defensive struggle.

“Oh, you held out? Then, I’ll wager control of one arm here…”

“Huh? Took it? Then, I’ll wager the other arm now…”

“This? Alright, then I’ll even wager control of both legs…”

How did you snatch it away, you little…!

Watching Dike struggle and sweat as he tried to take back control of the Divine Exhibition, Ni’Alatotep couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

Moreover, with Yudahee by my side, it’s truly the pinnacle.

Would the infuriating Ktou bother going to mock and throw a meteor at the under-construction Formalhaut?

Gyahahahahaha~

There’s a bundle of fun here.

Of course, outwardly maintaining a poker face and setting it to expressionless standby mode, Niallatotep and Dike are playing gleefully.

As a side note, they also listened to Yudahee’s request.

While Dike is earnestly trying to crawl up to sit on the commanding tower of the flesh, Niallatotep heads beyond consciousness towards the place where memories are stored.

– What on earth is this?

It’s like an overwhelming scene of looking at a gigantic waste disposal site…

[Dike, you idiot… Ha, no. Just fix a few weird habits while you’re here.]

No, Yudahee said it as if fixing a few things would be enough.

When I slightly rummaged around, it’s quite a mess.

– Oh, what’s this again? ‘Buying from the head… and selling from the toes?’ What kind of insane fixed idea is this?

-‘The latest you think it is, the latest it becomes… Anyway, isn’t it better to give up when you think it’s too late?’

-‘Your money is my money, my money is my money…’

-‘Fraud? Those guys playing with a penny are fraudsters… And when it becomes 10 billion or 100 billion, they call it an economic virtuoso. But what do you call it when it’s in the unit of a trillion?’

Wadawadawada…

Even Niallatotep, who understands humans, finds it hard to accept the slippery memories of Dike!

“Is this… the goddess of justice?”

It’s not justice, it’s evil.

Nyalatotep, who was looking at his shameful past, made a resolution.

From Noble mtl dot com

The avatar body is the human body created to accept the gods.

In other words, it is his area of expertise as a human specialist and a specialist in body modification.

And for the time being, it would be inconvenient if this avatar body were to stay in one place.

This, I must definitely turn into a human.

Nyalatotep raised both arms.
