Omniscient First-Person’s Viewpoint - Chapter 92
EP.92 is actually like bullying
『…The military is planning to dispatch an investigation team.』
The Golem calmly finished his words.
After hearing the story, I tilted my head again. It was reported to me, a mere laborer, by a military correspondent.
Perhaps realizing that fact, the Golem added as if making an excuse.
『Don’t be mistaken. I don’t entirely believe your opinion. The military authorities believe that this situation was caused by a simple mistake. This investigation team is to find the cause of the error. Also, what I have told you about this fact is only a brief explanation of the situation for the information provider.
”
『…Either way, don’t do anything hasty. The military is keenly aware of this, and this investigation team includes generals. Lieutenant Colonel Callis is a soldier in the military. An evaluation of her actions will also be made by the military. Even if there is something suspicious about the lieutenant colonel’s actions, it is not my intention, so I recommend that you stay still.”
Even though I said that I understood, the golem emphasized to me again and again.
Do you think I won’t understand? The military that hates useless work speaks twice.
『If you really want to escape from the abyss, the only way is to faithfully serve your sentence according to the instructions of the military.』
Okay, so why the hell are you so impatient? no way?
“Are you worried about me?”
“denial! I’m just talking about common sense! It will be ten times more realistic and constructive than aiming to break out of prison in a land where there is no escape!”
You don’t have to say that much. I nodded passively.
The golem, who worked vigorously, controlled his breathing and continued.
“…Lieutenant Colonel Callis has requested a supply of canned meat. Do you have anything to ask for?”
“No. are you okay. Anyway, I think the lieutenant colonel will be rationing it himself this time.”
“…All right. In that case, the head office will be leaving for now, so please do your best.”
“Yes. Good job too, Captain.”
Right after I finished speaking, the golem disconnected. Tuuk. The golem’s body sagged weakly and I sat it upright in a corner of the restaurant.
I stood up and muttered into the air.
“With this, Lieutenant Colonel Callis was completely isolated. She has nowhere to turn. How will she act when cornered?”
No answer came.
What are you listening to? If I don’t answer, I’m like a person talking to myself or mumbling.
I shouted at the wall on one side of the restaurant so that I could not turn away.
“Look. It’s nice to have one golem left. If we had beaten them all, we wouldn’t have been able to request supplies, and we wouldn’t have known what was going on. Do you know that destroying everything is not the best thing now?”
The wall on the other side shook like a mirage. The stealth technique was broken, and the figure of a regressor appeared, leaning against the wall and crossing his arms.
Even after overhearing the conversation between me and the golem, the regressor still responded indifferently.
“…If you break the golem and kill that one, there’s nothing to worry about.”
“The general has come. What if I kill the lieutenant colonel and then the general comes down?”
“The horse is a general, but not all of them are strong. If it’s not for growth, I can handle it myself. With Tyrkanjaka, it will be much easier.”
It wasn’t arrogance. The general at the top of the military pyramid is the strongest power that leads the military nation.
Among them, the regressor declared that it was common sense that he was confident that he would win against anyone other than the Six Masters, who had a different level of strength.
It’s great, but there’s a problem. I cautiously pointed that out.
“You know? From the general, he is a key figure in the country. From the moment they are killed, they are marked by the military and enter into a hostile relationship with no room for compromise.”
“You and I are already filmed. Do you think we’ll just leave us who survived in the bottomless pit? Even if you go up like this, you won’t be able to live a normal life. What’s wrong with being anxious?”
Awesome. That’s right.
Having nothing to say, I grumbled openly.
“I’m afraid that you will calmly commit the murder of a general.”
“Noisy. The guy who stayed calm even when the blade was pointed at him.”
“It’s called a poker face. I was surprised at how surprised I was inside.”
The regressor snorted when he heard me. It seemed like he didn’t believe my excuses to the slightest degree.
“You’re a petty criminal? Then the military was ruined last night.”
“No, it’s true. Both the captain and the lieutenant colonel speak in unison. That petty criminal.”
“You don’t even have to try to fool me. Maybe we could be friends.”
‘Just thinking about Aji and Tyrkanjaka is enough reason to save this guy. I’ll probably save this guy in the next episode, unless it’s a special variable. If possible, I want to know the true intentions of this episode.’
It’s not a believable atmosphere to say the least.
But do I really need to correct it? I got the right to survive this round as well as the next one. Thank you, me in the next episode. I suffered so much for me.
Anyway, since you saved your life, let’s move on. I shrugged.
“That’s why I don’t understand it even more.”
However, unlike me, who has a broad mind, the hard-hearted regressor could not just get over the question in his heart.
The regressor asked me questions.
“Is it really necessary to keep that lieutenant colonel alive?”
“Captain Abbey just explained it. Because the great general is coming.”
“No, I am not talking about the situation. You weren’t going to kill the lieutenant colonel from the start. I didn’t even try to help the lieutenant colonel, but I feel like I didn’t even think about the option to kill him separately from the beginning.”
Sometimes a regressor’s thoughts jump out of strange places.
I don’t know if it’s because of the externally installed 13th accident circuit or if it’s just nature. In the midst of most of the wrong legs, one or two stab the core unexpectedly sharply. It’s like catching mice while stepping backwards.
Even though I smiled vaguely, the regressor still questioned me sharply.
“Why? Maybe that’s what you like?”
“haha. It can’t be.”
“then?”
“ha. that is.”
That’s it. It’s what I felt while reading the officer’s mind in my spare time.
The human heart is really interesting.
“Aren’t you curious, Mr. Shay?”
“what.”
The officer’s goal is to become a 4th level citizen. To that end, he became an officer and joined hands with the secret society ‘Warrant of All Things’, which he secretly approached.
Her course was smooth. With their support, he received two medals and was promoted to lieutenant colonel at high speed. He gained quite a bit of fame, so people in the military came to recognize him.
Just then, an order fell from the ‘Warrant of All Things’.
Pretend it was a mistake, infiltrate Tantalus and get information.
Bottomless Tantalus. It was a demonic place that one should not have dared to approach, but… After the prison break, the degree of danger was greatly reduced, and above all, it was encouraging that the laborer who had been sent down first was still alive.
Even a mediocre petty criminal survives, so what is the reason why she, the elite of the military, cannot be safe?
So the officer entered here on their orders.
however.
“The land of isolation. A bottomless pit where you can’t rely on the help of others at all. If you were a lieutenant colonel, you rose to a high position, but you fell here alone without any support. I’ve been scolding from all sides, but nothing has been done. I am hostile, even by people I never thought were enemies.”
Dangerous person Shay still has a sharp attitude.
The dog king has already built a deep relationship with the laborer, and there is no gap to get in.
What should I do with the laborer, but the sijo, who should be indifferent to people, somehow wraps the laborer to the fullest.
The officer would watch me all day looking for gaps. Every time I did that, I pretended not to know that gaze and showed what position I was in and how tightly we were united.
The more this happened, the more the officer was overcome with despair.
A mission with no hope. I devise a countermeasure to not come out by biting my nails. However, there is no way that a method will spontaneously emerge from an isolated abyss.
The officer should have known by now. The fact that there is nothing she can do about this place… a rolled stone.
“I don’t have anyone to talk to, and I don’t know how much time passes. The goal is getting farther and farther away, but the end is approaching. Your life is no different from a flying fly.”
Even if the officer sees a gap and approaches Aji, when I ring the bell, Aji runs straight to me.
Even if you are inside a building, you can feel a gloomy gaze when you pass the shadows where light cannot reach. It’s because Tyr is wary of her.
Even the regressor in front of him gives off a sense of life every time he sees the lieutenant colonel. When you reach the rank of lieutenant colonel, you can feel the level of living that has not been captured, and thanks to that, you are experiencing death several times a day.
“Maybe I will die here. Couldn’t it be that nothing can be accomplished, it can’t be remembered, and it fades away like a dim candlelight? Right now, I am worried that they might abandon themselves when their plans go wrong.”
The target is a level 4 citizen.
The reason why he wants to become a 4th level is to leave what he has to the next generation.
However, she has no family or spouse. If you die here, it means that everything is nothing.
Isn’t that contradictory? To risk one’s life for something that doesn’t currently exist.
“What would she look like in that bottomless situation?”
What will she choose at the end of contradiction at the end of her life?
“Aren’t you curious?”
I was curious about that so I decided to ask.
It would have been natural if it was natural, but the regressor did not understand.
“You were working on that? Something as inefficient as this?”
“Not necessarily because of that. After all, you can’t kill a living person. As long as I can save it.”
I know because I’m a mind reader, but honest answers come only when you’re in that situation. Even those who claim to be able to give their lives for the country often run away when the blade approaches them.
Obviously, when I read it, there was not a single lie. He even deceived himself.
So, the line written now has no meaning. When the scene comes directly in front of your eyes, when a situation that cannot be escaped by words unfolds, the truly valuable sincerity comes out as truth.
i just want to see it
“…really.”
The regressor thought over my words calmly and then added, surprisingly liking it.
“Perhaps I guess. You must have been a really bad guy.”
“Because he’s a petty criminal.”
“joy. I guess so. Regardless of what you say, it’s definitely… worth a try.”
‘The lieutenant colonel is a woman. That’s why I’m not the instructor the Undead said. maybe it’ll come off Rather than interrogating and dealing with it right away, I can dig out the truth more clearly if I leave it as it is… I don’t want to take such a trivial risk.’
Persuaded by my words, the regressor reaped his life for the lieutenant colonel.
He placed the cherry blossoms he had been clutching tightly on his bedside table, and twitched his chin, deep in thought.
‘I wasn’t going to do this kind of leisurely build-up in a throwaway episode… but the situation turned out like this. Should I change my plan?’
When I read that thought, I couldn’t help but be stunned.
I was expecting this, but was this episode abandoned?
Please don’t. The mind reader who reads the mind is anxious.
Anyway. I turned my head again. Questioning the officer over there.
What is the officer who has reached checkmate thinking?
Lieutenant Colonel Callis unfastened the belt she had brought with her.
Some time after the past garment packets became commercially available. Leather, which had lost its main use, was often used as accessories or consumables instead of clothes.
Wallets, pockets, belts, bags, accessories, etc.
There is no reason to stop them from saying that they will deal with leather stocks that exist in military countries or countries that are afraid of luxury. Throwing it all away is a bigger loss.
So there was a brief leather boom and it was quite popular until something happened. As with shiny luxury items, there were also various variations.
Lieutenant Colonel Callis’ belt was also a product that survived with its own unique use after dozens of variations were worn.
A belt with a strangely inflated left waist. When Lieutenant Colonel Callis put his finger through the gap, a cleverly hidden space appeared through the leather gap. Lieutenant Colonel Callis took out three packages from there.
‘The three packages he gave me.’
Even she doesn’t know the contents. ‘The Warrant of All Things’ emphasized that you should never open it until the situation is over. So I tried to save Carlisle as well as possible.
However, now was not the time to choose means and methods.
‘One for contact. The other is for escape.’
It is not yet time for contact. this is on hold.
The escape dragon was handed over to be used when there was no hope and to escape from the abyss. This, too, is put on hold….
‘Should I put it on hold?’
Callis unconsciously reached for her escape package, but when she realized what she was about to do, she clasped her hand tightly. She took a deep breath and bit her lip.
‘Not quite yet. I haven’t achieved anything, but I can’t be weak anymore.’
Callis, barely composure, pushed the escape bag deep with trembling fingers.
There is only one thing left.
‘And the last one… This is when you need help.’
don’t know what it contains
However, hope is more swollen when it is invisible.
Callis took out the leather package with a glimmer of hope.
The lord of all things, a secret society with roots deep in the military. As it is a trump card they left behind, I hope there will be something to turn the game around.
‘Please. I hope it contains something to overcome this difficulty…!’
With desperate wishes, Lieutenant Colonel Callis opened the package.
