I Can See the Comments on the Doomed Novel - Chapter 120

120 – Human, Beast, or God

“Save me…….”

Eunbyeol was speechless at the words of ‘A night’s dream that was like a dream’, no, ‘Eve’.

I didn’t say it, but I felt the same way.

That’s not the only thing I’m worried about right now.

“Is the Eve you just mentioned your name?”

“Ah! It has nothing to do with the characters in your world. It’s simply because my name is IB.”

Well, if it was a name like that, it might have had more power.

I don’t think ‘Eve’ has shown her strength yet, but at least she doesn’t seem to have anything special on the outside.

At least I wouldn’t have to ask the player for help like this.

“I just wanted to ask you to save me. Are you saying that knowing that we are also players participating in the quest?”

“Of course. I know the contents of the quest with certainty.”

Eve nodded in reply.

“Of course, as a god, I demand a lot of pressure just by revealing myself like this. I ask after considering everything including that.”

Even if you have a divine power, if you violate probability, you will be penalized.

Even the evil spirits are severely restricted, to the point where they have to resort to tricks to avoid them.

Now that information about the godhead has been released to some extent, it may not be that much.

The situation in which Eve, the boss, talks to us will not be too much of a burden for her.

“Then you know how ridiculous that is. The quest we received was to hunt down the spirits here.”

“But you didn’t do that, but rather protected the children. I plan to do so in the future. Is that right?”

“But it’s not that I can’t carelessly grant such a request.”

Of course, we want to protect the rabbits here, and we are prepared to fight other people if necessary.

In other words, the intervention we can do is just that.

I can’t afford to protect all the spirits in this dimension, at least against the quest itself.

“Only those who attack us first or brutally slaughter animals are willing to fight. It could also include protecting the rabbits you already have a crush on. But it is unreasonable to ask for more.”

For example, if there is a starving child in front of you, all you can do with warmth is to buy him some bread.

But donating to an international organization for a child on the other side of the world is a different story.

Eve’s words are no different from our point of view.

Even if all the other spirits are being hunted outside right now.

Waging a war with all the players to stop it is too risky for us.

“Besides, to be honest, there is no reason for us to do that. If you try to use us just because you saved the rabbits, it’ll be troublesome.”

“Of course, I don’t have the heart to just ask without hesitation. I intend to give you some kind of compensation.”

“Reward?”

Eve took a deep breath and said.

“First, let me tell you the conditions for clearing this quest. That is to be the first to reach 100,000 points.”

In an instant, blue sparks flew in front of Eve’s eyes.

It seems that his remarks just consumed quite a bit of probability.

The reason why it can end like that is probably because Eve herself is the boss and godhead who was deeply involved in this quest.

“100,000 Points… ….”

Even simply thinking about it, it is absolutely not a small score.

According to the people I defeated last time, you can get about 100 points when you kill a rabbit.

There probably won’t be much difference between the other spirits.

Then, by calculation, you need to kill 1000 rabbits to earn points.

‘…….I wonder if all the rabbits here add up to 100 rabbits.’

That’s not enough to end with a few sheep hunts.

Wouldn’t it be possible to achieve this only if we annihilate it with the momentum to really dry the seed?

Especially when several players are hunting separately.

If you scrape together every single animal that lives in the forest, you should be able to fill it somehow.

But the result will be terrifying.

Certainly, it was something that Eve, the godhead, would have to step out on her own.

If you stay still, the spirits of the dimension you are in will be extinct.

“…But you’re not asking me to hunt 100 humans instead of spirits, are you?”

Because I became a killer, I can get 1000 points by killing people.

Theoretically, if you kill 100 players, you can achieve 100,000 points.

Will it be a person who dies or a rabbit, except for that.

You can clear the quest with 1/10 of your life.

That’s probably the best result from Eve’s point of view.

“Will you do it?”

“… ….”

Of course, I have no intention of doing such a thing.

The reason Eve asked with a bold expression was probably because she knew that fact.

No matter how much it is, I don’t want to kill 100 people for personal reasons.

“If you’re hard on yourself, that’s the best way. But I don’t recommend it either. It is impossible to defeat 100 players with all your power right now.”

“Umm, if I dig traps or drive guerrilla warfare… it will take time, but wouldn’t it be possible?”

Eunbyeol casually said something scary.

Yuri is the same, and sometimes I think the women are more cold-hearted than I am.

“Maybe even that has its limits. I don’t know yet, but especially when people start to join forces.”

“Do you think people will form coalitions?”

Although players are already moving in organizational units.

But that’s only because the people gathered before the quest.

The chances of people meeting for the first time in the quest forming an alliance were slim.

But Eve shook her head confidently.

“Maybe tomorrow at the earliest, or two days at the latest, people will form an alliance. There are people who can do that.”

“A person?”

“You know that you can make a contract with a godhead, right? That also means that the godhead can intervene in the quest in earnest through the player.”

Hearing that, I suddenly remembered the evil god who had contracted with Mina and directly intervened in the quest.

“……Are there any players who signed a contract with a fairly famous deity?”

“Yes, one of the 12 deities of Olympus. The god who is said to be the most prominent among the children of Zeus, who presides over music, archery, the sun, and prophecy. A player who signed a contract with Apollo is currently participating in the quest.”

“Hmm.”

If you’re a player who signed a contract with a Goddess, who is reputed to be versatile, you might be able to lead people.

Anyway, the logic of power still prevails in this world.

Eve, who has seen me and even sponsored me, evaluates me that way.

This means that even the current country is not an opponent that can be taken lightly.

“Even if you are an individual, you wouldn’t know. I think it will be difficult to beat a group of opponents.”

“Then wouldn’t it be more difficult for me to do you a favor? In the first place, it is impossible for just the two of us to fight them all, or stop the hunt.”

It took a lot of determination just to save the rabbit right here.

But you want to save all the animals here?

Apart from the words, the two alone are overwhelmingly lacking in strength.

“In the first place, why are you asking us to do that? If it’s a god, you can protect it with your own strength.”

“As I said, even a Godhead is restricted by the destruction system. I’m in a position where I can’t stop all the players.”

Eve lowered her head with a grim expression on her face.

“……I cannot use direct force against you. At most, the limit is to use reinforcement magic or use barriers. I am not good at fighting in the first place.”

Even if it is a god, it is a living being with a heart and emotions.

There must be many gods with abilities that are not suitable for battle.

Even, apparently, is that type.

Well, even if it was possible to fight, I don’t know how much direct intervention would be possible considering the destruction system and probability.

“Besides, as you can see, I’m the boss of the quest. In the first place, my appearance itself should not have happened at this point. I had no choice but to lend a hand to someone else.”

“Then, did you mean that we, who knew you well, caught our attention because we saved the rabbit there?”

Eve looked at me and nodded cautiously.

When she saw that figure, she somehow remembered Hye-na, who was teased as a child.

Since he is a god, I don’t know what his actual age will be.

However, it is not very pleasant to see a child paying attention to an adult.

“……I think your situation is bad. Still, nothing can go wrong.”

That wasn’t something that could be accepted with simple warmth.

‘It’s physically impossible in the first place.’

Only two, or three, of the animals on this large island?

Against the battle-savvy flares?

It is impossible unless you have ten bodies.

“I think I can protect the rabbits here somehow. But I can’t do anything further than that.”

“……What if there is a way?”

Said Eve, swallowing her saliva.

“Is there a way?”

“I am not the only spirit living here who can fight. No, in a sense, there are Guardians who are better than me.”

At Eve’s words, Eunbyeol tilted her head.

“Then you don’t even have to ask us?”

“Perhaps he is in a state where he cannot fight for some reason.”

I don’t know if it’s because of the quests and systems, or because of some other reason.

If that was possible in the first place, I would have started early.

“Right. Currently, Guardians are sealed. If it had been, I wouldn’t have had to hide like this.”

“Then you ask us to release the seal of that guardian?”

“Wow, it’s nice that you understand so quickly.”

As Eve spoke, she stroked the heads of the baby bunnies that approached her.

“I am not the godhead who rules this place. But as the person in charge of this world, I want to protect the children.”

Is it because Eve is a child?

The way she said that made me feel sympathy and at the same time want to be a source of strength.

Well, at least it’s better than the writer who just kills the character he created.

“I don’t want more than that. Help break the guardian spirit’s seal. Then, even if you use all your strength as a godhead, I will make you the winner of this quest.”
