Omniscient First-Person’s Viewpoint - Chapter 79
EP.79 The manual carefully
opened Tirkanjaka’s lips before stopping. Of course, I couldn’t see the golem’s expression, but I waited for Tyrkanjaka’s reaction as if I was expecting a little bit.
Tirkanjaka, unable to speak for a long time, asked slowly.
“…What?”
“He is a criminal without any qualifications, and he came here to pay for his crime. Arrested in Amittengrad on charges of fraud and gambling, Tantalus was sentenced to hard labor under a fair and speedy sentence by a military judge. Contrary to what you may have known, he is not a military instructor!”
“Then. You mean his actions… have nothing to do with your country?”
“Positive. Whatever he did while blindfolded the main officer, it was not the true intention of the military. It’s just a crazy criminal who suddenly took action!]
Did you say he was a sinner? The uniform gave me a pretty good impression.
Although he heard the news, Tyrkanjaka had no regrets about it. This is because Tyrkanjaka was something more than a criminal who once stirred up the world.
He didn’t feel bad even after hearing that the other person had cheated on him.
Rather, I was just happy.
“It’s really clear.”
“Positive. It is the truth without a single lie.”
“Then why did you call me a trainee?” 『It was a ploy to raise the odds of survival even a little bit
by impersonating
the military.』
“I had an obligation to serve as a slave. It is questionable whether such a criminal had any interest in servitude other than making his own meals.
” Tyrkanjaka found himself increasingly excited.
just.
Purely.
as a favor.
That he risked his life to restore his heart. because I found out
“Whoops.”
You feel sorry as if your heart is being squeezed, but at the same time, joy runs through your veins. From the heart to the lungs, it turned once and made an exclamation of joy, then followed the throbbing neck and landed on the head.
Your face warms up for a moment. Warmth is vitality, and vitality is movement. The corners of his lips, which had been very stiff before, softened.
“Whoops, ahaha.”
‘…what’s so funny?’
Tyrkanjaka smiled happily, then withdrew it all at once.
“Then, even if he disappears, there will be no problems or regrets in the country called Gunguk.”
『Yes.』
“Good. There will be no problem if I take him.”
『Yes…?』
“That wasn’t the virtue of the military. Even more so, he was called an orphan, a body not bound by anything. There is no reason for me to pay the ransom separately.”
[…?]
When the golem, feeling something strange, expresses a question. Tyrkanjaka asked in surprise.
“But I have a question.”
Tirkanjaka, with a relaxed face and a graceful chin, looked at the golem and asked.
“Even when Finlay fell, weren’t the two of them together? As if they were brothers and sisters, they were graciously carried on their backs.”
『Brother and sister! Denial Absolutely Deny! The head office does not recognize that guy as an older brother!]
Tyrkanjaka blinked his eyes at the fitful retort.
“That’s what they say, but somehow you also owed a debt to his back, didn’t you? If so, why did he suddenly tie you up? There must be some reason.”
[…That’s it]
When the golem tried to avoid answering, Tyrkanjaka persistently questioned him.
“If you ask him, the problem will end. Be honest. If you don’t even answer these questions, what do you believe and share questions and answers with?”
Actually, he becomes an idiot and can’t answer anything, so the only one who can answer this question is the golem. The golems who were chained and imprisoned here don’t know about it.
The golem responded obediently to Tyrkanjaka’s insistence.
『He tried to find out how to escape the abyss from the main building.
』
The last time I said that I would let Finlay go, it must have been bluffing. Tyrkanjaka remembered one more interesting fact.
“The principal warned me severely against such an act, but he became dissatisfied with it and committed treason. After destroying the speaker of this machine, I was restrained here so that the head office could not monitor the inside of Tantalus.]
“Is that all? Are you tying you up just because you were dissatisfied?”
leisurely interrogation. The golem looked hesitant, but soon realized the meaninglessness and replied honestly.
『…The military always prepares replacements for all parts.』
“Replacements. I guess you’re not just talking about things.”
“Positive. So far, no special preparations have been made considering the uniqueness of the bottomless pit and his cooperative attitude as a laborer. However, it was confirmed that he had the will to rebel…]
From the standpoint of the military state, he is a litmus species. A kind of test paper that warns by turning red on its own if there is danger lurking inside.
Litmus lived long enough. Now, the military will not hesitate to send personnel to this abyss.
If Litmus shows a disturbing movement, there is no reason to postpone it.
“Oh my. i get it. He sensed it and decided to hang out with you.”
Tirkanjaka, now fully aware of what was going on, nodded leisurely. Golem hurriedly continued.
“In the past, an unqualified person would have disturbed your heart, but that will not happen in the future. His sudden action is unexpected even from the point of view of the military
.
On the contrary, it was a pleasure for Tyrkanjaka. All I got was grace, and I felt a huge sense of debt to the military, but didn’t the other side take care of it?
“Do whatever you want. I won’t mind if something else comes here. instead.”
Rather, he was grateful for sending him as a laborer.
Tyrkanjaka glanced toward the table as if he had found some treasure by accident.
“I will make sure to pick up what you threw away.”
『…? All goods in Tantalus are the property of the home country. If you want to transfer or purchase, you must obtain permission from the management authority.”
“That’s very tricky.”
『Anyway, it seems that the story about his identity did not give you much inspiration.
』 I was also pretty surprised. There were a lot of stories I didn’t know, so I just listened quietly.”
That someone was a criminal was completely irrelevant to Tyrkanjaka. I didn’t know if Shay would react differently.
Maybe that was why Shay told me not to go to the restaurant. Tyrkanjaka quietly muttered to himself.
The golem caught the flow again at the story that kept going wrong.
“…I will change the question. Please brief us on what happened during the four days that this aircraft was in custody. Especially with an emphasis on vampire intruders.』
There was nothing difficult. Tyrkanjaka explained simply.
Except for the needless fact that she was manipulated.
“Finlay tried to persuade me and I was halfway through. But won’t the children tear me apart? After thinking about it for quite some time, I changed my mind, but Finlay fiercely criticized them and they didn’t fight each other. Finlay, who gave all his strength, just stopped breathing.”
『Is that all?』
Of course not all. But I don’t need to tell you more than that.
Tyrkanjaka showed a slightly angry expression.
“My mouth hurts. What more do I have to explain? Doesn’t the fact that I’m still here explain it?”
[Confirmed.]
The golem’s consent was quick. Rather than completely trusting Tyrkanjaka’s words, it was probably because the fact that she remained at this point itself was the most important information.
Even though he was a golem who adhered to his principles so firmly, he emphasized a word as if he hadn’t cooled his anger yet.
『I will warn you once again for you who cooperated meekly. Don’t trust him. It is a vermin of the military that engages in fraud and gambling.”
The answer that it was already too late came up to his throat, but Tyrkanjaka barely swallowed it and answered roughly.
“I will find out. Oh, that’s a different story.”
past is past. Whether he was a criminal or what Finlay was after, what mattered.
Tyrkanjaka now decided to ask a slightly more important question. A question that may have a far greater impact in the future.
“Do you know how to cook with leftover ingredients?”
Golem nodded.
“Positive. The main building is a military signalman and knows 99 military special recipes that can be made with canned beans.
” That’s great.”
“denial. Ordinary. Signal soldiers often carry out long-term missions in an isolated space, and because of their nature, they are in a position where they can easily come in contact with such information.” Although he said that, he felt pride that could not be hidden in his tone
. Golem even made a suggestion ahead of time.
『Please take this machine down from this cupboard. Misunderstandings can occur with only words, so I will show you a demonstration of an experienced teaching assistant.
”
Tyrkanjaka waved his hand. The darkness passed and grabbed the golem’s entire body.
Tirkanjaka, who was about to take out the golem, suddenly thought of him sitting there.
I don’t know what kind of reaction a golem who doesn’t like him will react to if he sees that figure.
Tyrkanjaka swung his hand, and the black darkness that emanated from his hand rose like a mist and covered his face. It was darkness that blocked the light, so the golem’s eyes would not be able to see through it.
『It’s dangerous!』
I almost dropped it because I neglected the control of the golem. It was because hematology was not as natural as before.
Holding on to the darkness, the golem raised its head and scolded the vampire.
『Please be careful when handling. This machine is dangerous if it is damaged more than this.”
It is natural to say that he almost dropped it, so please be careful in handling it from now on.
The words would certainly have worked for him, but unfortunately, he could not draw sympathy at all for Tirkanjaka, who was out of step with the times.
“What do you mean we should treat golems with such pampering? One of the few strengths of a golem is that it is sturdy, but it can only fall off.”
Tyrkanjaka was not a person who would go over even after being scolded by a golem or something.
It was because, to her, who did not know anything other than a primitive mud golem, a golem was an object that was premised on being broken. Not to mention, even humans can sleep like dolls, but the golem dared to talk back.
Perhaps feeling a sense of danger from those words, the Golem hurriedly added his words.
『This object is a synchro type. This aircraft is currently severely damaged and will become uncoordinated if the frame twists further. Also, since it is controlled in sync with the main officer’s body, if it is shocked, the pain will affect the main body.
” Then why use such a golem?”
A cold gaze turned to the golem.
The state-of-the-art synchro-type golem of the military had to show its worth in front of a vampire from 12 centuries ago.
『Look.』
The golem flicked one of its fingers differently. Tyrkanjaka watched the golem play tricks with a curious face
. Compared to a real human, the range of motion was very narrow, but it was a very detailed movement for a golem.
『If you don’t synchro, you won’t be able to control it naturally at such a long distance. I can adjust the sensitivity, but that part just broke.”
“It’s amazing. Then, is your body moving just like the golem right now?”
“Positive. If you don’t move like a golem, it’s dangerous to get an impact that’s too strong for the synchro to be canceled.”
Tirkanjaka, who was nodding at the latest toy, suddenly asked.
“And how about that awkward look with your legs spread earlier?”
The golem’s movements suddenly stopped.
[…Yes…Yes…]
The sound from the speaker was trembling.
The tearing off of the golem’s leg was clearly playful bullying.
The person beyond the golem had to rip off his leg on the spot in order to sympathize with the golem.
“It must have been painful, but why did you keep sympathizing with me?”
“It is not continued. I turned it off when I was sleeping, eating, or doing other work. And.”
In response to that question, the Golem answered without hesitation.
『Observing Tantalus and reporting its contents. Because that is the duty of the principal.]
Tyrkanjaka did not ask further. Because that’s all I understood. Therefore, I decided to ignore the golem’s rudeness.
Recognized for its value, the golem finally got the time to look away. The golem looked around and said.
“Visibility is not secured. It seems that the dining room has become strangely
dark.”
The reason she can nod her head just by saying that is because she is Tyrkanjaka. Golem agreed without any doubt.
『Confirmed. Go to the warehouse for now.』
