Chapter 1021 (1/2)

It seee to Guider

The Job that was a require a champion, the Job that Bellwood and Zakkart had acquired

It was difficult to believe, but it was true

But the situation that he had caused as a result of acquiring the Job was even more difficult to believe

“To think that he would guide people to Vida's circle of transration system exactly as they are!”

Rodcorte could not suppress his shuddering as he struggled to deal with the errors that were occurring in unison

Vida's races such as Va people torituals These rituals involved giving their own blood to these newthem for days inon the race But these reat deal of time and effort

And the char race usually did not overcoe Alda and the other Gods had taught them to fear it

Vampires could acquire near-infinite lifespans, but they would becoain Andto slurp the blood of others in order to survive

And other races such as Ghouls, Scylla, Lamias and Arachne had remarkably different appearances from ordinary people, so it was natural for people to fear and avoid such changes

Alda had focused onsure that the anecdotes of saints, epic poems about heroes and myths about hi members of Vida's races

These were erated than similar stories on Earth; Vampires would be rejected by maidens that they desired as their brides and fall to ruin, crying words of grief such as, “So you would choose the sun over me as well?”

The fact that some still chose to become members of Vida's races of their oas a headache-inducing probleht now

Vandalieu had undergone a Job-change to the Deuide the people To Vida's circle of transration system!

The human and Dwarf citizens of Talosheiration syste

The reason that Vandalieu was guiding his citizens to Vida's circle of transration system was likely because he had been taken into Vida's system himself

This was a dreadful situation for Rodcorte, just like the pseudo-reincarnations that Vandalieu had been conducting

“As their races have not changed, the people have no clue whatsoever as to what has happened to theration, and, of course, we cannot reveal those secrets”

The citizens of Talosheiration systeuided them to the new system, was unaware

For people, no visible ritual had been conducted, and no changes to their bodies ormoved to another system, so they didn't knohat had happened And even if this became known to Alda and the Gods who served him, it was unlikely that they would knohat needed to be prohibited

He would be left with no choice but extre Vandalieu as an ene the people to exterminate him

This would make no difference to the current situation

“As I thought, there is no choice but to erase Vandalieu”

Since he had becouide others unconsciously Not every person would respond to his guidance, but the high standards of living in Talosheim would be incredibly attractive to them

In the end, as always, the only option that Rodcorte had was to erase Vandalieu

“No, aren't there other options like trying to reconcile with him?” asked a voice

“More i I don't understand Why did we die?” asked another

Two reincarnated individuals were looking at Rodcorte through half-closed eyes

An earnest-looking wo face, Machida Aran The two of them had suddenly died and found themselves here; Aran had not even been aware that he had died

They had been watching Rodcorte for a while as he groaned to himself for reasons that they didn't really understand

The two of theration systems, but they could understand that the God before theht processes

“shi+madsan, do you knohat happened?” asked Aran

“Hey you, what did you do with your Calculation, your only redee feature? Or should I call it Laplace's Demon?” said Izumi

Aran's cheat-like ability was Calculation, which had also been known by its codenaave him computational power on the level of a supercoh information, he could even predict the future to a certain extent

“Don't be so unreasonable,” Aran protested “What are you trying to ask ot no information to ith?”

If he didn't have enough infor the future was impossible Also, these calculations were only calculations, nothing more They were vulnerable to errors due to unexpected and unknown situations

“I suppose that the only thing I know is that I wasn't killed by you, shi+madsan?” he said tentatively

“You're right about that,” said Izurenades ca from the wall, and that was it I was further away so I didn't die instantly, but it seems that I lost consciousness before I could cast any spells and died soon afterwards”

“Ah, what's known as 'near-instantaneous death?'”

“Yes, near-instantaneous death”

TLN: This appears to be an obscure japanese phrase

“Then the ones who did it are… Murakaht it was Kanata, but he's already dead,” said Aran

“What about the intelligence agencies of each nation?” Izuested “My ability is convenient, but it was hated by many, so I think it's possible Now that I think about it, Hiroto's ideals are a problem as well”

“They're working as an NGO that doesn't belong to any specific organization or government,” said Aran “We acted like superheroes, so it's true that a lot of people liked us, but a lot of people hated us as well Especially my Laplace's Demon and your Inspection, shi+madsan

shi+mada Izumi's cheat-like ability was Inspection, which allowed her to see through all kinds of falsehoods It wasn't h every kind of disguise, forgery, CG footage and illusion

She had often coic shows that she had enjoyed on Earth very dull, however

It had been Aran's Laplace's Demon and Izumi's Inspection that had allowed the capture of the Metamorph, shi+houin Mari

But although the two of them possessed powerful abilities, they had little in the way of strength in coic, and they did receive training to soht as combatants on the frontlines like Kanata and Mari

That hy the two of the left to process information behind the scenes for the Bravers, but… it seeeted for this

“But considering the roup who has a similar ability to Kanata, is there?” said Aran

“Probably not,” said Izu si multiple abilities”

“Well, now that we've died, there's nothing that can be done even if we figure it out Ah, if things were going to turn out like this, I should have eaten ers”

“You're right, I would have liked to get h the lies of men, even if I don't want to”

The two of the just died, but this was the second time that they had died, and they had lived for forty-six years in total between their lives on Earth and in Origin And since it had happened so suddenly, they hadn't had tiret

And they were in the company of not the ones who had killed theether, so they weren't too upset

Ah, it has restarted, Rodcorte thought as he looked up at Izumi and Aran “So, about your next lives –”

He explained to them that they would reincarnate in Lambda, and that he wanted them to kill Vandalieu, just like he had done with Kanata

Unlike Kanata, the two of them listened calmly Even as they learned that the Undead that the Bravers had faced in Origin was Amamiya Hiroto and now Vandalieu, they didn't lose their composure

“Absolutely not,” Aran said flatly

“In fact, I'd rather die than doing so that reckless,” said Izumi

“As I thought,” said Rodcorte Unlike the ti them to refuse Unlike Kanata, as well as Tanaka and the others who had died after hi at all

It wasn't as if they didn't have any qualities for fighting whatsoever, but they had chosen a path in Origin other than training those powers and skills

But feeling guilty of the sin of essentially having abandoned Vandalieu in Origin and considering the fact that he was originally a student attending the same school, Aran and Izumi were hesitant to simply refuse this request

They could see that if they remained quiet, the other reincarnated individuals and Vandalieu would kill each other

“Looking at what this person is doing, it's hard to even say what A that we couldn't save hiin, what this person is doing is…”

“Crime and terrorism,” said Aran “Of course, that's only if you apply the coin Especially the creation of Undead; it's an act that tramples on the sanctity of the dead before it's a crie”

Even from the viewpoints of Izu in La a different nation, this was an entirely different world Considering that this was likely just how things had turned out when he had used death-attributethat he had no affinity for any other attribute, they couldn't condemn him unconditionally

In fact, considering the way that Vandalieu had been treated in Origin, they even felt respect for his strength of will At the very least, they themselves would have found it iood you do to others is good that you do to yourself,” into practice

In fact, while Vandalieu had killed over a hundred people in the Hartner Duchy, he had saved over a thousand

However, they couldn't be certain that the other reincarnated individuals would think the way that Izumi and Aran did Aht away, but…

“Now that we understand the situation, I'll ask one more time Can't you reconcile and persuade hiiven the infor will be possible,” said Izumi

At the very least, it seeh it also seemed likely that he would si afterwards

Izumi and Aran hadn't been present when Vandalieu's second life came to an end, but fro a similar offense

“shi+madsan, hoould you persuade him peacefully?” Aran asked

“Well, convince hih it doesn't see hiested

“Can you think of any conditions that we and this God could offer him that would be favorable for him?”

“… I can't think of anything”

This was so the tiin

Forgiving s with the appropriate judicial branch, guaranteeing safety, reduction of prison sentences, release on parole These were the priain with cri to Vandalieu, who had been reincarnated in Origin

By offering a reconciliation, it ht be possible to prevent a battle to the death between Vandalieu and the other reincarnated individuals But it was unlikely that he would be able to stop creating Undead The scales would be too unbalanced away from his favor

Also, neither Izuanizations now Once they reincarnated in Lambda, they would just be individuals with special abilities

Even if they were born into the royal fareat nation or the family of a merchant with an enormous fortune, it would still take nearly two decades for them to rise to positions where they would have any political influence to speak of

It was difficult to inificance to Vandalieu

“The only thing that I can think of is infor that to hi,” said Aran

“You're right Then, what else…”

“Normally it would beelse?”

Though its population was small, Vandalieu was already the ruler of his own nation His citizens gave him their absolute support, and he was served by countlessthat could be offered that would convince him peacefully and allow a reconciliation between him and Rodcorte?

“It's impossible,” Izumi concluded

“You're right,” Aran agreed “Even if we told him that ould serve him with our powers, it seems like he would just tell us, 'It's troublesome so I don't need you'”

“Yes… considering that's how he is”

The biggest problem for a peaceful persuasion and reconciliation was Vandalieu's emotions towards the reincarnated individuals

If they were compulsive emotions like hatred and a desire to kill, the two of the to Rodcorte's infor to be That hy Izumi and Aran, who hadn't directly caused Vandalieu any har on how they approached him

But the emotions that Vandalieu felt towards the reincarnated individuals were unhappiness and disgust

They were simply troublesome and it was tedious for Vandalieu to even become involved with them They were bothersome and an eyesore, so he didn't want to see the how he had treated Kanata, this was how he felt

Si to do with Izumi and Aran would be unpleasant for Vandalieu

“What other… oh yeah, can't you resurrect his ested “You're a God, aren't you?”

“That is impossible,” said Rodcorte

“No, I mean, the rules aren't meant to be bent, but can't you make an exception in this case?”

“It is not a problem with the rules; it is simply impossible”

It seemed that Aran had assumed that the reason Rodcorte refused to resurrect a dead person was because there were rules that Gods were not supposed to interfere directly with the world, but Rodcorte was simply unable to resurrect Darcia, Vandalieu's mother

Darcia was a Dark Elf, a being ould be reincarnated by Vida's circle of transration system Rodcorte could not directly intervene

Rodcorte could not mention these circumstances to humans, even if they were reincarnated individuals, so Izumi and Aran were not convinced But they saw that Rodcorte had no intention of saying anyother ideas

But no bright ideas occurred to them In the end, they settled on a very simple plan to convince Vandalieu

They would appeal to his e criminals in order to appeal to them

“What do you think, shi+madsan?” asked Aran “He was your classmate, wasn't he?”

“… I don't think he had any friends; even I wasn't his friend,” said Izuo, so I' to anyone”
