The woman’s shape made of light shook intricately for a while, and soon the oracle’s voice, which had found stability, reached everyone’s ears.
– All right. Byron. I respect your decision.
whiz.
Along with the horse, the main body of the oracle, which was made up of a rectangular parallelepiped, vibrated, and a mechanical sound that was completely different from the previous one sounded.
– Access the Akashic System. Initiate battlefield predictions. Limited in scope and time.
Uh.
An indescribable, strange wave began to flow, and the lawmakers who encountered the wave hardened their faces and took a step back.
The only thing that remains unchanged is Veyron.
“Stand back. There’s nothing good about being inside the Oracle’s foreknowledge. Even more so if it’s your first time.”
“What about the market?”
Beyron smiled at someone’s voice.
“Because I’m used to it.”
Everyone looked at the back of Vayron with complicated eyes, now standing face to face with the waves rolling around them enough to be seen with the naked eye.
The movement of the waves became more and more intense, and a powerful flow of power was felt from the central pillar as if to assist the oracle.
The face of the lawmakers turned pale at the flow of energy that was enough to take full responsibility for one district, and how much time had passed like that.
– Check conditions and variables. drawing conclusions.
The oracle’s voice echoed through the space, and the rippling waves subsided and soon disappeared.
At the word that the foreknowledge was confirmed, several lawmakers unknowingly swallowed their saliva, and Byron’s voice rang calmly.
“What is the price?”
-Causal rate calculation completed. price confirmed.
Although the facial expression was not implemented, everyone could clearly see that the Oracle’s gaze was directed at Byron.
– Price announcement. The contents of the foreknowledge are limited to one person only. Unable to disclose the contents of the foreshadowing. Assistance by others is not allowed for any consequences arising from foreknowledge.
“······what?”
At a price completely different from what they had expected, lawmakers murmured, and some faces strangely changed.
“……Is this enough? You can always find a way.”
“right.”
The fear and greed that had been hidden by fear rose secretly, and the chairman, who watched it, made a pitiful expression.
“Stupids.”
“chairman!”
“Isn’t that harsh?”
Some of the members blushed and refuted the harsh words that came out of the mouth of the speaker, who usually doesn’t say anything unpleasant to lawmakers, but the members who listened to the Oracle’s words and thought for a while realized the meaning and turned white.
“It is stupid. Like idiots blinded by greed!”
Lawmakers tried to raise their voices at the words of the middle-aged man, but they had no choice but to keep their mouths shut.
“I can’t speak to others and I can’t get help. What does this mean! It’s a story that lives are at stake!”
A direct cost would be better.
They will suffer losses, but since they have confirmed the results of their foreknowledge, they can deal with them accordingly and, if necessary, mobilize their mighty power.
But what if you have to go through Wisdom with your own strength?
In the first place, considering that the reason why Byron asked the Oracle for foreknowledge was to overcome Luna’s crisis, it would be a story that he had to break through the tough crisis with his own power.
In the process, his life would be threatened, and even in such a crisis situation, he could not get help from others, so it seemed clear that his life would end with a fairly high probability.

Mighty ability and mighty power disappear like a mirage when one’s life ends.
They had more things in their hands than anyone else in Luna, so fear seemed to tighten their hearts, and at the unexpectedly harsh price, everyone looked at Vayron’s back with stunned eyes.
“It’s okay.”
Vayron’s calm voice pierced everyone’s ears.
“It’s really okay. Was it a convenience?”
The price was too light for Byron to think.
Because he was prepared for death anyway, power was meaningless, and he had no great regrets about life because he had lived through countless times and experienced all kinds of ups and downs.
– The Akashic System and I shared cause and effect. Given your dedication, it’s no wonder.
Veyron’s face softened in the soft emotion filled with the cold mechanical sound, and he did not hesitate.
“Tell me your wisdom.”
– All right.
A ray of light reached the top of Byron’s head, and of course the other members of the council did not know what it was.
“······Right.”
Veyron, who had closed his eyes gently and savored the contents of the knowledge that the light gave him, turned his body.
“chairman.”
“Yes.”
Scanning the members of Congress who each looked at him with a different expression, Byron raised his hand.
Uh.
A sentence made of light emerged from the back of Byron’s hand, and it moved slowly, but soon it permeated into the back of the chairman’s hand.
“I took over the authority of the commander. From now on, the mayor is you.”
“······ Mayor!”
The chairman’s eyes widened as if they were going to tear, but Byron turned his gaze to the middle-aged man as if nothing was wrong.
“You are the next chairman. Let him take over the authority of the chief of staff.”
“I see.”
Looking at the middle-aged man with a distorted face, Beyron smiled and continued.
“You guys do your duty. The role of the councilor is to protect Luna. It is not a position to reign for the citizens.”
It was a calm statement, but everyone nodded at the pressure inside, and Vayron, who had a satisfied expression on his face, turned and turned his gaze to the Oracle.
“Yeji listened well. Oracle. This will be the last time I see you like this.”
– ······Bayron.
“I have been with you for a long time. These poor guys shouldn’t have to see you, but if that day ever comes, I ask you to do your best.”
– ······It is my duty to defend the base and protect the troops.
“yes.”
Veyron nodded loudly at the Oracle’s voice, filled with pent-up emotions, and turned around.
“This is goodbye. Oracle. Do your duty from now on.”
With the horse, he took a step without any regrets, and the legislators followed closely behind Byron.
thud.
The door closed with a loud sound, leaving only the pillars and the body of the oracle emitting soft light in the darkness.
– Start-up complete. Put Oracle into standby mode.
Wei Ying.
The voice of the control ego rang out, and the body of the oracle began to move slowly to be stored in the pillar.
The shape of a woman still remained in the body of the oracle, probably because of the residual energy remaining, and the woman’s upper body, made of light, bowed her head.
Wiing.
The body that was slowly moving touched the pillar, and was stored inside the pillar, stopped functioning, and was about to wait for the moment when she needed her again.
Uh!
A flow of power began to occur in the body of the oracle, and the oracle, which lowered its head, raised its face.
– Check Oracle’s refusal to switch to standby mode. coordination of opinions.
All emotionless mechanical sounds rang out, and beams of light running across the surface of the huge pillar shimmered violently, but the body of the oracle stopped moving and refused to be accommodated inside the pillar.
– Call for active intervention in emergencies. Staff members, please express your opinion.
Centering on the highest ego supporting District 0, the lower egos assisting in their respective fields exchanged intense discussions, and the shape of light floating on the surface of the oracle also swayed violently.
Although it is the source of Luna’s support, the original purpose of the ego is to win the war and preserve the base.
For that reason, he could make any kind of heartless judgment, and that heartless judgment included the lives of his allies.
Since there is no emotion, life can be calculated as a number and optimal efficiency can be derived, so humans during the Great War trusted the judgment of the ego.
What Oracle did was simple.
Based on the foreknowledge just now, Luna’s crisis was injected, and she awoke her awareness and made her aware that it was an emergency.
In the process, just inflating the data a little and adding subjective opinions was enough to instill a sense of crisis.
– It can’t end like this.
The Oracle murmured among the egos who were exchanging opinions fiercely.

“Come in.”
There was nothing special about the house that Caidel had entered.
The wide lawn in the front yard was well-groomed, and the appearance of the simple house was no different from the surrounding houses, so it was hard to believe that it was a place where a notorious blood horse resided.
“You are humble.”
Inside the house, there was nothing special.
Furniture that looked quite expensive was arranged here and there, and at first glance it looked like an ordinary family home.
“Living simply is the hardest thing. Would you understand?”
“That is a true story.”
John laughed at Caidel’s words and buried himself on the sofa.
“It’s not quite ordinary, but it is.”
“Then why didn’t you take any action when you’re imprisoning a guy like me?”
John nodded his head as he watched Caidel smile with his eyes narrowed.
At first glance, the house seemed ordinary, but unlike its appearance, the contents were completely different.
Caidel’s dwelling, detected by John’s ability, had a strength comparable to that of any bunker, and the aura that flowed throughout the building indicated that the entire house was covered with magic.
The shamans hidden around the yard were about to blow up the entire house in case of emergency, and the gazes of the invisible inspectors were blatantly watching Caidel and John and putting pressure on them, so what you see is not everything.
‘What would I do?’
Caidel sat across from John, who instinctively figured out the structure of the house and calculated the escape route.
widely.
“There is only this. Well, if you ask, you might be able to get more.”
Two cubes on the table.
“……That’s right. Thank you. Caidel.”
John, who confirmed the authenticity of the cubic with this ability, lowered his head, and Caidel waved his hands as if nothing had happened.
“done. I only had it as a keepsake because I had no idea what it was. It’s not bad because I’ve solved my long-standing curiosity.”
Kaidel is also someone who has lived for a long time.
Although he was subdued and imprisoned, the things he had acquired during his lifetime did not go anywhere, and that’s how John was able to obtain two Philosopher’s Stones from Kaidel’s warehouse.
“yes. Do you think it is possible?”
Seeing John looking at the cubic with complicated eyes, Kaidel opened his mouth, and John’s gaze met with Kaidel’s as he raised his head.
“We have to make it possible.”
hook.
A small dark red flame rose from John’s fingertips, and it was a tiny flame that seemed like it would go out at once if he blew it with his mouth, but it was enough for Caidel to confirm it.
“······It’s not too bad. Yeah, I don’t know if that’s possible. great.”
Having made up his mind, Caidel straightened his posture.
“I will play with your rhythm. fixer.”
Before entering Caidel’s house, John gave a brief account of his circumstances, including what he was aiming for.
“Since you’ve lived long enough, it’s not a bad thing to do something meaningful. Especially if that opponent is a Transcendentalist.”
Summons and strikes a demon that sows the calamity of destruction in Luna.
Seeing Caidel make a confused expression because it was fun just thinking about it, John clenched his fist slightly.
The faint smell of blood reached the tip of his nose.
