I Made a Game Featuring Constellations - Chapter 51
The Final Moments of Jelly
Clang!
The sword quickly drawn by the Crown Prince blocked the sharp blade.
“No more!”
Aura flowed through the Crown Prince’s body.
“I will not lose!”
The power of [Knight Ren], who had completed his training, flared up.
“Wow, Your Highness!”
With Bersia’s startled voice in the background, the boss battle began.
-Vwoom
The jelly rapidly expanded its body.
A grotesque and hideous jelly monster that filled more than half of the rooftop space.
LV 103 Abyssal Assassin
An over-hundred level, surpassing the maximum growth limit level of 99 that a player’s playable character can reach.
But the Crown Prince did not back down.
“Haaah!”
Instead, he leaped up, utilizing the abilities of the characters he had raised so far.
-Wooo
The jelly monster unleashed numerous jelly attacks, but the Crown Prince cut some down and dodged others, striking the jelly’s main body.
-Wooo!
As the jelly’s remaining health decreased, its patterns became increasingly dangerous and difficult, but it was not a problem.
He was demonstrating a level of concentration that surpassed even that of the previous succession competition.
Crash!
The Crown Prince’s manifested sword split the jelly’s core, reducing its remaining health bar to zero.
-Wooo!
The jelly’s body shattered into pieces as if a cutscene was playing.
“…Is it defeated?”
The abyssal monster, which looked undoubtedly dead.
The Crown Prince sighed in relief.
This time, he had protected it.
It was not lost.
-Wooong
The jelly, which was thought to be dead, rapidly condensed.
The jelly was reborn with a completely different color and appearance.
A threatening attack from the jelly was shot towards the Crown Prince.
The world slowed down for a moment.
“Researcher! It’s dangerous!”
Bersia leaped forward to block the attack.
No.
Not that.
Squeeze
“Not that!”
Bang!
The Crown Prince moved quickly as if someone was controlling his body.
His sword blocked the jelly’s blade aimed at the center of Bersia’s chest.
“Prince! What, Prince?”
The Crown Prince held Bersia with one hand and faced the jelly with his sword.
“Haaa!”
As the Crown Prince swung his sword, the sword energy split the jelly in half.
“Are you alright?”
“……Yes.”
Versia’s face had already turned red.
“Isn’t it dangerous to jump in suddenly?”
“……Because Your Highness was in danger.”
“What did you just call me?”
“Your Highness?”
“No, before that.”
“……Researcher? Oh, but why did I call Your Highness a researcher….”
Researcher.
The title she used to call the Crown Prince in her previous life.
A word she must not know since the Crown Prince decided not to tell her about his past life memories.
Which means
‘Is she recalling?’
The memories of her past life might be resurfacing.
The Crown Prince felt a mix of joy and bitterness, his mind in turmoil.
-Woo woo woo
The torn jelly reassembled itself.
“Is this thing immortal?”
No matter how much he cut it, it regenerated.
From noble mtl dot com
How on earth should he deal with it?
-Vrrrrm!
The Crown Prince despaired as he watched the jelly, its health bar full once again, roaring.
“Your Highness.”
At that moment, a warm and soft sensation in his hand.
Bersia was holding the Crown Prince’s hand.
“I think I can do it.”
“…You can do it?”
Strength surged through the hand she held.
“This is…”
“The fruit of love… perhaps.”
Though she had lost her previous strength and memories upon reincarnation, meeting the Crown Prince again had revived her hero’s abilities.
Love had awakened the power inherent within her.
‘With this power, I can do it.’
The Crown Prince gripped his sword once more and advanced towards the jelly.
The strength Bersia had given him accompanied him.
Nothing could stand in our way.
* * *
I observed the players’ reactions to the story.
-When is Bersia being released!
-Let’s analyze Bersia’s abilities
– “This is my wife. Isn’t she beautiful?”
Fortunately, the story seems to have been well received.
The story of Act 3 begins, and the players meet the reincarnated Muria-13-07.
Despite being reincarnated, her face remained the same, so the players could recognize her immediately.
By the way, her reincarnated name, Versia, is the name she used before becoming a test subject during the human era of the Constellation of Wisdom.
Following the flow of the story, after enjoying a date with her, they arrive at her hideout, the final location.
Just like the last scene of Act 2, when she turns around with a beautiful night view in the background, an entity from the abyss suddenly appears and ambushes her.
This is intentionally designed to induce PTSD in the player, overlapping with her previous demise.
At the same time, a slow-motion effect kicks in.
As the world slows down, the player leaps forward to block the abyss’s attack.
Clang!
With that, the boss battle begins.
Boss: [Assassin of the Abyss]
The previous assassin of the abyss was created by putting that sewage creature in, but this time it’s different.
This boss does not contain the lab director jelly.
The punishment that should be given to it is to lose its body and live helplessly trapped in the form of jelly, but giving it a body is absolutely unacceptable.
This jelly boss is merely a means to provide a reward.
Therefore, the jelly boss’s pattern is simple.
Due to the lack of reference material, it was made into a boss with an absurdly large health pool and simple patterns.
There is one thing added in return, and that is the infinite regeneration ability.
Considering that the actual lab director was quite tenacious, it could be said to be an appropriate verification.
Anyway, if the player defeats the boss once, a cutscene is played.
The player sees a world flowing slowly.
In that world, Versia blocks the attack aimed at the player.
At this rate, she is in danger of facing death again.
The player’s body moves on its own according to the set conditions and blocks the attack.
At the same time, Versia partially awakens the power of her previous life.
She learns the supporting ability to remove all buffs from the enemy and grant massive buffs to the allies.
“I think I can do it.”
“Is it… the fruit of love?”
With a description that seems to have regained some memories of her previous life, the players enter the second boss battle. (This production up to this point was filmed together with her due to the strong opinion appeal of the Constellation of Wisdom.)
With the help of Muria-13-07, the final boss battle, which can be progressed more easily and with more excitement.
-Wooo!
When the boss is defeated, the Abyss Assassin disappears, leaving only a small jelly.
Item [Abyss Jelly]
-A part of divinity left behind as the existence of the abyss disappears. All the evil of the abyss has been purified and can be used freely.
It is a kind of furniture to be used in the housing system added in the last patch.
Other furniture has a fixed usage, but this furniture takes the shape imagined by the player through the power of dreams.
As a personality jelly, that is.
The lab director, shattered into countless jellies.
He’s become furniture for the players now, shifting into endless forms.
Serves him right.
So eager to be some superior being, and now he’s become a unique existence others can only dream of, right?
* * *
One of the countless dream spaces forming the [Akashic Archive]
*BEEP*
A player logs in, and lights flicker on in a housing space prepared just for them.
“Ugh, today was so rough, boo.”
The player appears as an avatar of a normal woman, a prospective curator, but inside was a morbidly obese human male.
“Did our Darling-chan behave herself, boo?”
He didn’t glance at anything else, heading straight for the bed in the center of the housing space.
A jelly he’d used until yesterday lay there on the bed.
Not a regular jelly shape, but a curvy feminine form.
Shaped like the character Darling Bercia, according to the player’s desires.
*Twitch!*
The jelly pulsed as his hand touched it.
“……Hmm? Did our Darling-chan get a little thrill from my touch, boo?”
-It’s not that, you maggot!
The fragment of the lab director’s soul trapped inside the jelly screamed.
“Take your dirty hands off!”
“Buhii… Our darling…”
But the player, who couldn’t hear the shout, rubbed his face against the jelly.
A female character, beautifully designed to attract players.
Nevertheless, the lab director was horrified.
The insignificant being, whom he had never even treated as the same entity, was now manipulating him at will, which gave him goosebumps.
“Buhihit.”
Because he, who once possessed the power of knowledge, could see through the dream avatar.
A middle-aged man with a stupid appearance, with a rough beard that was not shaved at all and dirty water dripping down.
If it were the lab director in his previous life, he would have incinerated him as worthless even for an experiment.
The player started licking the jelly.
Seeing the true form overlapping within, the lab director stopped thinking.
