Chapter 242 (1/2)
Confirone, but it’s not like I can sleep yet
Because I still have to do the final confirmation
With that, I went to [White Beach] The footprints from where Leona had walked had aluess she walked in that direction?
I went into the forest
“Let’s see, it was definitely this way… oh, a broken branch Looks like she was here”
I went farther into the forest
… Huh? What aain?
No, yeah I have to confirm The final confirmation Yeah
I arrived in front of a cave There were so It looks like she forcibly opened it up through so an iht, I could understand that from the details This is why I came
When I looked into the cave—Leona was spread out sitting on a futon, waiting
crap, I have to run! No, it’s fine…!? The thoughts for [STOP] and [GO] lit up in my head at the same time
W-hat the heck My head’s all ”
“—…”
Spoken to by Leona, I held ht I have an extra life Calht?”
“… Yeah There is”
“Go ahead, I’ll even teach you how to have fun and live for hundreds of years—Setsuna, Nayuta, the Toys, how to raise your skills, how to kill and deceive Gods, even how to steal their powers, anything Nohat do you want to ask first?”
“Leona, what era did you come from?”
“Oh?”
Leona smiled with a s so sie
But she probably wouldn’t have a problem with it—she was seventeen, after all
“Well… let’s say it was an era that ic It was like that for you too, right?”
“… That so, well, I’h so that I wanted to stay there for longer…”
Leona’s s me, someone on’t even live till five hundred, could understand
“Which is why I felt that I definitely had to give you my thanks and call you here with this”
Leona patted the futon… The Godly Comforter? I see, so that’s it?
It looks like I was lured here by the Godly Comforter’s divinity Like a moth to the flame
“So next you’ll want irl, Meat Kuroinu, if I recall?”
“… You knew? No, so Meat’s like that?”
“I knew~ It’s so I ? Unlike Setsuna, that girl isn’t natural”
… Meat is—no, Toys are created existences…?
“Different fro was said about the sisters?”
“Setsuna is natural, I haven’t adjusted her at all And yet she’s so interesting right? The seed I’d chosen rando Nayuta and the Toys a shot” [1]
Hold up She just said so
Leona continued talking about her story
“Setsuna’s talent value is super close to 6V and feels like 5V! Ah, you don’t knohat I mean? Well, anyways, she hasin the head, so I adjusted Nayuta’s head to be better Toys are things I made when I wondered ould happen if I raised their talent to as high as possible! There’s a lot that I did that so, so I decided to call all of thein of their na aside Nayuta who I’d only added checks to so that she wouldn’t be unreasonable, I’ve had a lot of failures too Really, training so many different creatures causes a lot of troubles I’ve finally gotten to the point that I cantheir appearance though After many sacrifices, I finally ers!—ah, that part was a lie The Toy Rangers aren’t a thing~ It’d sound too cheesy Well it’s true that I had a ton of failures, only three of the their planned talent values Ah, but don’t worry! My lovely grandchildren andThe staff happily accepted the them into materials, food, even furniture… ah, there was even one of theood there… Hmm? But isn’t it weird? The failures should’ve all been locked away and recycled? And I knohere the three successes are? Huh? Then that uess? Maybe it’s one of the ones I discarded and stopped paying attention to? Well, it’s a trivial problem It’s probably just that I threw her into a sluh her liot about it There’s also the possibility that Haku-chan stole my research results That child has a hero under her control after all There’s also the chance of Godly intervention, but well, that’s not much of a problem either What I can’t re didn’t I? Well, with all that—”
Leona took a deep breath before continuing
“—the Toys were created by ht!?”
“You already said that”
“Oh”
Yep, et that she’s done a ton of bad things I was listening since it seeh
