Chapter 56 The Disappointing Hero Explains
I deactivated the [Sacred Area] after the battle was over.
I asked everyone to sit down... It was funny to see Yoda-kun in his blood-stained clothes with a rough chest, but I guess he had to endure it.
First, I asked Yoda-kun about his understanding of the situation.
My story depended on that.
"I have a vague idea... that I was working as a special agent. But I don't have much memory of what the entity inside me was thinking."
Hmm.
He doesn't remember clearly, huh?
Maybe he inherited some of the memories that were left in his brain, right?
This is convenient.
I told him a slightly embellished version of what I heard from Flora.
It would be better to avoid the 'truth as it is'.
──The fact that a goddess is distributing otherworld templates and recommending the abduction of humans for her own power is likely to generate unnecessary resentment.
The different world is, as you all assume, a game. The goddess, being a game enthusiast, originally gives "skills" to chosen individuals to lead humanity to the next stage.
However, some gods abuse the system, capture the consciousness of humanity, and manifest themselves as "evil gods" in this world. Their purpose is the destruction of humanity.
To save humanity, as the one who achieved the highest difficulty (Hell Mode) conquest, I was chosen as the savior. Flora came to this world to convey that!
Yeah, it's not an exaggeration. It's almost a lie.
The reason is to use the police as my hands and feet. From now on, actively cooperate with the savior who will prevent the destruction of humanity? Hahaha.
Well, working for the justice of humanity or working for my 'sexual prowess,' it's all the same spirit if written in hiragana.
"I understand the gist of it... Is there a possibility she's lying?"
Shibuya-san checks.
Yeah, it's a natural concern.
"No, she isn't. I confirmed it with [Skill]. Well, if you start worrying about whether I'm lying or being manipulated, there's no way to prove it."
Well, it's a lie, though.
"I see. While I won't give you my full trust, I'll cooperate within reasonable limits."
"Thank you."
"By the way... How did you know that Yoda-kun is that evil god?"
"I can't say."
"Why not?"
"Just as Shibuya-san can't fully trust me, I haven't fully trusted you either."
"Well, that's understandable."
"Ah, it doesn't matter if you have bad intentions towards me or not. You might be used by the evil god without knowing it. Then, my way of thinking might be exposed to the enemy."
"That is...I can't deny it. After all, Yoda-kun was being used by them."
"Well, I want to say that...but let's talk."
"...Are you sure?"
"Yes, trust is something you build little by little, right? So first, I'll give you some information from me."
Shibuya-san is a person who seems interested in the episode between me and Yanashima's old man. I won't tell a complete lie, but the main reason I don't bother him anymore is because it's too much trouble. But if I tell him that kind of story, he won't think badly of me...that's also a fact.
I'll make him think I'm an honest person, and then I'll make a favor, that's the idea.
"First, I heard that the other world is a game. Then I thought, 'What if this situation is a game...I mean, a sub-event after clearing the game?'"
"You mean, this situation itself is a game?"
"Yes. In that case, there were some strange things. Now I see 'Yoda Kaisei', but in the morning, Yoda-san's name was different."
"What..."
"So when we got to this station, I thought it was weird when Shibuya-san said 'the staff Yoda in the morning'. Shibuya-san and Nada-san have the same names as I checked, but only Yoda-san has a fake name? Why would he do that?"
"I see..."
"So, if we're talking about a game, the creator's intention is clear. 'They didn't want me and Yoda-san to meet right away,' so they sent Flora all the way to Niigata and separated Yoda-san and you guys. There was a chance I could have suddenly ended up in a scuffle with all three of you, right? I mean, I did kick away Shibuya-san, after all."
"Indeed, in that situation, leaving contact with the 'visitor' to Yoda-kun is pretty much the only choice."
"Well, even if that was the case, when Nada-san was summoned with my [Summon], there could have been a chance for Yoda-san to... but I guess they've read my personality there."
I guess I unconsciously avoided the situation with the two men, or all three of them.
"Then, I learned from Shibuya-san and the others that the events in the other world were some kind of 'game', and Flora also told me that 'the goddess likes games'. That's when I thought, this situation must be a 'evil god search tutorial'. Then, Yoda-san, who felt something was wrong, was the tutorial boss."
"..."
"Then, I did the same thing as Shibuya-san. Shibuya-san also, when I appeared behind you, you reacted without thinking, right? The stronger ones are more sensitive to the battle atmosphere. As soon as I showed my fighting stance, the boss revealed his true identity, that's what happened."
"Then, when did you really know for sure..."
"Of course, when Yoda-san pulled out his pistol. But, trying is free, right? If I was wrong, I could just scratch my head and say 'teehee'."
Well, I was pretty sure from Flora's attitude and behavior.
But if I say that much, I have to tell them that Flora is a goddess.
It's safer to just say that I tried it.
"I see... wow, amazing. This is the highest difficulty achiever..."
Shibuya-san and Nada-san, who were listening, nodded with admiration.
Hmm, it feels good!
I actually wanted to brag about it, so I didn't have the option of not talking about it!
I wonder if this is how old men feel when they tell their stories while drunk!
...That makes it sound really lame.
I glance at Flora.
Her expression doesn't change, but she looks satisfied.
Well, if this is really the 'game' she set up──.
If I defeat all the crack gods, she'll reveal her true identity and say 'You got me!' or something.
Well, I'd prefer to see her true identity on the bed.
Something like a super easy-to-feel slut, yeah.
Hello, we have a new project about someone who has returned from an isekai. The main character is a hero who has defeated the Demon Lord. However, for some reason, the human-demon war has resumed and will take place in the MC's original world. The MC, unaware of this, meets a Saint from that world and asks them to join the war. But what does the MC say? They refuse. Is it because their love was rejected by the princess when they adventured together in the past or are they simply fed up? And are the MC will join later?
