I Made a Game Featuring Constellations - Chapter 63
Horror Game
Flash
The memory of Apostle Saphira, which I had been peeking through, ended.
Born as a high elf of noble status, rolling in the underground city, escaping it, defeating Aksila, and finally reaching that shocking conclusion.
I could understand why she became an apostle and how the dead dark elf Gaizerus could ascend to a constellation.
‘An artificial god in a different sense from the director’s method.’
It might be an episode with a greater lingering impression than any story I’ve created in my game so far.
If only the constellation [Theft], which ascended through sin, had not been devoured.
I looked up and stared at Apostle Saphira, who was sitting opposite me.
She met my gaze with her wide, round eyes.
“The power to peek into memories… is it an authority?”
Her eyes were trembling.
“Did you come to find me because of what I did?”
Thud
She sprang up from her seat.
“Because I spread the faith that made Rus a god by widely propagating what he did? Did you come to punish me for such a taboo?”
……It seems like there has been some misunderstanding.
The dark elf Gaizerus, who died after ‘that incident’.
It appears that Saphira had been searching for various ways to bring him back to life.
She tried numerous alchemies, magics, and various spells, but all resulted in failure.
The last method she chose was to widely publicize the deeds Gaizerus had done, making him a symbol of elf unification, and deifying him as a god through his unwavering moderation.
Surprisingly, her intention worked perfectly, and Gaizerus succeeded in being resurrected as a god, but….
‘Of all things, lust.’
He was consumed by the sin of lust, not any other sin, and became an incarnation of lust, indifferent to earthly ties.
Considering that the only time he had been with someone in his lifetime was that one time with Saphira before the final battle, it is ironic.
“I have already been punished! My attempts at alchemy resulted in the worst outcome!”
Saphira sobbed.
It seems she mistook me for a divine messenger sent to scold her for her mistakes.
……It is a sad thing.
It wasn’t even a wrong method, just widely publicizing the deeds of her beloved to bring him back to life, but he ended up being bewitched by strange beings and became a lust demon who doesn’t even remember himself.
“You are mistaken about something.”
“…What?”
“I did not come with that intention.”
At first, I only thought of driving out the sin and increasing my companions.
“I came to bring him back.”
The long, drawn-out memories of the elves showed me their past.
I can’t just leave it alone after seeing that.
“To restore him to the perfect god of theft he was when he was on earth.”
Because a beautiful pure love story is better for selling to players through the game’s story than a meaningless lust demon.
Besides, I don’t like what those abyss guys are doing from the director’s perspective.
* * *
I boasted to Apostle Saphira, but it’s not an easy task.
To strip away the sin that engulfs a god.
When I think about it, it’s not something an ordinary human like me can accomplish.
Because it’s about extracting or crushing the parasitic concept within that even the great divine being can’t handle.
Moreover, how can I purify the constellation of theft, which has no connection to me?
I lay on the bed, lost in thought.
[The Sacrifice that Overcame Sloth] and the demon god overcame their past or awakened to it through the game’s story and defeated the sin.
The magic engineer revived his old lover through the game and shattered the sin with it.
…Come to think of it, none of it was intentional.
It was all a product of coincidence.
The purpose was to incorporate each constellation into the game’s story, but it was never to purify the sin.
It was merely a byproduct of achieving each purpose.
This is the first time I’m trying to remove the sin clinging to a constellation.
“……Ugh.”
I ruffled my hair in frustration.
The Constellation said that the Constellation of Thievery is also one of the many player gods who became a customer of our game.
In other words, he does play our game.
I feel like something might happen if we use that….
I can’t think of anything.
How on earth can I erase lust?
How can I make the Constellation of Thievery normal again?
His lover has never died.
Rather, he died to save his lover.
In such a situation, I can’t purify him by reviving Saphira through the game like I did when I was a magitech engineer.
Unlike the Constellation of Wisdom, who is trapped somewhere, he is freely going around seducing other goddesses.
I can’t take him out of his confinement or make his mind normal again.
The most plausible method right now is to create a splendid memory of his past life, like in [The Sacrifice that Overcame Sloth], to remind him of his nobility at that time.
The problem is that it wasn’t an intentional act back then, and sloth and lust are different.
Can I really erase his sins by composing his story well in the game?
Ah, that’s another problem.
Now is not the time to add new stories, but to hold a horror event to commemorate the Requiem.
I’ve even announced on the official broadcast that we’re doing a horror event, so I can’t bring out a new story.
In this case, I either have to create a new story just for the Constellation of Thievery or use the horror event.
But can I really erase lust using a horror event?
Is such a thing even possible….
Just a sec.
“…Kukukbupgu.”
Right.
There was that method.
So, the lover isn’t dead, they’re alive?
Then, shouldn’t I use that living lover to create a tragedy, not a comedy?
A woman loved, but now distant.
What’s the most impactful way to use that woman to strike a blow against the man?
The earth is filled with textbooks, already discovered by countless perverts.
“Even if I turn your woman into red bean paste, will you still be ruled by lust?”
Steal the Constellation of Theft’s woman through any means possible.
Until he’s disgusted with lust.
Until he regains that former nobility.
If I create a personalized horror just for him?
Even then, will he still have lust left?
* * *
“Me, chickening out? That’s ridiculous.”
“Then go in and break it right now, sweetheart♥!”
“If I go into the horror event mode, complete all the objectives in 10 minutes, and clear it, I’ll do any position you want♡!”
“…You promised.”
The brown-skinned god with a dazed face picked up the terminal that was lying nearby.
“Yeah~. You can never beat it~♥. It took me over an hour too~♥.”
He chuckled at the goddess babbling beside him and activated a program on the terminal.
I was the one who endured in that dark space.
A mere horror game?
No matter how virtual reality it is, there’s no way I’d be scared of something like that.
Fwoosh
The power of dreams enveloped him.
He could escape the power with just his will, but he quietly accepted the power of dreams.

Come to think of it, I think I was able to endure in that darkness because I wasn’t alone….
Who was it?
The memory is so blurry that I can’t see it well.
Who was with me that I could endure…
Well, it must have been some useless girl.
A mere girl isn’t important.
He logged into the [Akashic Archive] and skipped through several screens and stories he wasn’t interested in.
At first, he entered to try various naughty things in virtual reality, but he got bored and rarely logged in.
So there were a lot of piled-up stories, but he skipped them all and entered the newly added horror mode.
Explanation…?
Ah, whatever.
What explanation is there for fear?
Before him, ignoring even the NPC that was supposed to explain the event, an endless darkness unfurled.
Just darkness?
Are they trying to scare a dark elf with darkness now?
He scoffed, and the moment he moved forward…
“To salivate at the sight of this thing… You are a ludicrously lewd woman.”
*Creak creak*
“N-no, it’s different! This is because I’m caught in your magic!”
A familiar smell and sound.
It was his favorite thing.
“Pretending to be strong. But your water is already overflowing below, *gugu*. Full of anticipation, aren’t you?”
“No… Russ, help me….”
If it had been his usual self, he would have immediately jumped in between the two and joined their orgy.
“…What?”
But the smell didn’t feel fragrant to him at all.
That smell and sound that used to excite him so much.
“What the hell…!”
It only brought him irritation and displeasure.
