Episode 133 Interesting idea.

A thick book was stuck in Ammon’s head.
“Are you telling me to believe that bullsh*t now?”
“I understand the anger, but I have only conveyed what was in the report.”
“No one can help! Losing the remnants of a dream is not enough, Jinjo died without even being able to perform properly?”
“… yes.”
“Shut up! I don’t even want to see them all!”
Enrique shouted the whale whale.
Even though his servant was kicked out of the room, he couldn’t even say a word of protest.
Because I knew very well that no one could stop Enrique from being angry.
In the room where the stillness was restored.
Enrique was contemplating something.
‘I can’t think of anything but intentional interference. However, to be taken seriously, it is too futile. If anyone else hears it, they’ll finally ask if you’re crazy.’
The Somnium Liberator is a small organization.
Although the influence they can exert and the value of each member they belong to may be great, it was undoubtedly a group that was difficult to see in terms of scale.
Therefore, controlling the information was not so difficult.
It was enough to intensively crack down on only a small number of light-mouthed people.
This is the reason why Enrique and others who occupy a place in the Somnium Liberator do not easily lose their trust in the place they worked in.
Because they were strictly managing their secrets not to be leaked.
However, now on the contrary, that was making Enrique even more confused.
‘There is no place for information to leak. However… So how? Even if it is said that the attack that was ordered last spring was luckily caught due to the mistakes of the lower end, the fact that even the Jinjo incident intervened is suspicious to be considered a mere coincidence.’
Even if I tied my head and pondered, there was no way I could come up with an answer.
Not long ago, Park Seong-jin was nothing more than an ordinary civilian who had no contact with villains or heroes.
Although there are unusual corners, it is only a rookie awakening and showing an extraordinary side, but compared to the real geniuses, there were more foolish aspects.
In other words, there was some degree of heart disease, but no physical symptoms at all.
Even that heartache was just a delusion squeezed out by Enrique, who was so sensitive.
‘You must have been very stressed out. Are you imagining such nonsense?’
Enrique managed to shake off the elixir-filled thoughts and reclined his chair.
Still, I couldn’t sleep.
Aside from that, there was a lot of work to be done.

It’s a time of respite.
It was important to find out what kind of relationship there was between Katarina and Chunma, but it was not an urgent task that had to be dealt with immediately.
What worries me more than that is what the Somnium Liberator is doing now.
Jinjo, a chess piece that should be used for a long time, was quickly sent off, so we must find a new way.
I wonder if there is enough power to do that.
In the original story, Jinjo reigned as the loser in Eastern Europe for quite some time.
Since such a person disappeared after not even being active for less than a year, it means that he has earned quite a long time in his own way.
‘Now, I guess I can live with some fun.’
As I was contemplating what to do during the vacation, the phone rang with a loud noise.
“hello.”
uh, it’s me William.
“Yes, sir. What are you doing?”
I have something to tell you, and I called to ask for my regards. Seeing that he’s alive, that cheeky mosquito bastard must have been smashed?
“Yes, I did.”
I’m so glad that! It would have been a little sad if he died. Unfortunately, assholes like you are rare!
Yes, this inspiration has always been like this.
It’s never meant to be bad.
It means it’s good to go.
Even those who are close to me, there aren’t many people who ask me about my well-being so often, and even those people are virtually nonexistent except for lovers.
Isn’t that just the case with Nihilis, who claims to be a teacher?
He is the kind of person who appears without saying anything, and then disappears again after he has said something.
Half a joke, though.
“Thanks to the inspiration, I saved an hour. You’ll be able to change things up on your own.”
You have to satisfy 120% of your original customers to keep them.
“By the way, what are you talking about?”
Oh, that’s right. Hmmm.
William didn’t lose his luck with a rare moxibustion.
It was a strange thing considering that William is usually the type of person who just spit out and stare at each other.
What the hell are you doing?
Actually, that’s true. That odd piece of stone you spoke of. I managed to save a few. But what the hell is this thing? I didn’t know I would have to face such a threat just to get a few of these. So, for now, I’m putting off collection.
By threat, you’re talking about what the Somnium Liberator’s minions caught up with.
By the way, I didn’t know that the children were already collecting this.
It is something that only appears in the mid-to-late part of the work.
It seems that it is true that you have prepared thoroughly.
“Can you elaborate on what happened? I think I know roughly.”
The first place I got this was in the Kalahari desert, Botswana. It is such a remote land that no one seems to have been able to find it. Up until then, I thought it was nothing.
“yes.”
The problem was after that. The second place I found the stone was at the black market. As always, unusual gems are popular with collectors, so I thought about spending some money, but even considering that, there was one guy who was asking for a strangely high price. Even after receiving the goods, he seems to have been chasing after my subordinates.
“After that, there must have been a dispute.”
right. From the third time onwards, he was accompanied by the Awoken. They didn’t fight directly, but they showed a willingness to even kill.
I thought it was a good idea to collect them beforehand.
If those who are extremely reluctant to reveal their identities to the outside world are willing to take it away without risking an all-out war, it must be a very important item to them.
I still haven’t figured out what it really is.
So, I think you should explain to me what this thing is. I don’t even know where it’s used, but I don’t know if it’s worth getting while paying the risk allowance.
“The real identity of these chasing spirits is a group of villains known as ‘Dream Liberators’ or ‘Somnium Liberators’. They have been looking for that stone for quite some time.”
What is the use?
“I don’t know exactly… In a nutshell, I think of it as a stone that grants wishes.”
“Hey, is there some kind of stone fairy genie inside? Well, humans all over the world reacted similarly when they had their own superpowers, so there’s no way there’s no way there’s no such thing as a stone fairy.”
Although there is a sense of being overly abbreviated, there is probably no other word that can be explained as easily as the description of ‘the stone that grants wishes’.
That’s because that stone has the power to manipulate reality.
Of course, no wish or random wish will come true.
There was also talk that certain conditions had to be met in order to use it.
Besides, the power varies depending on the size of the stone, so I know that it can only change a light reality.
Like ‘I want to change the apple in my hand to a banana’ or ‘I want to feel better’.
It’s not that he can’t answer abstract and difficult spells such as ‘I want to be rich’ or ‘I want to be a genius’, but to do that, a lot of stones are required.
Still, I’m glad it doesn’t interpret wishes in a twisted way like a monkey’s hand, but the problem is that’s all I know.
I don’t know how much the size of the wish is proportional to the size of the stone, what conditions must be met, or what the stone is.
“It’s roughly explained, but it’s not like a lucky fairy who grants all wishes. I know that in order to use it, certain strict conditions have to be met, and no matter how you meet those conditions, you need a lot of stones to make a great wish.”
Hmm, that’s kind of weird to hear.
“What is it?”
Even after listening to the description, I have no idea if this stone is worth it. People with similar abilities already exist in the world, right? According to you, this stone has a power similar to ‘chaos manipulation’. The ability to lead to a specific future if certain conditions are met.
“yes! yes! Right. It was a car I didn’t know how to explain, but the explanation of chaos manipulation is just right.”
Yes, if it is comparable to Chaos Manipulation, then it is true that the stone is great enough. But, ‘Is it worth it?’ is a completely different matter, isn’t it? The world is full of Awoken with tremendous abilities. Whether it’s paying the price for an Awakener who can directly manipulate reality, or enticing a new Awakener who doesn’t realize his true worth, there are many ways to make your wish come true.
That’s right.
After it became known that I had a foreshadowing of the future, people who asked for lottery winning numbers or who asked for a little bit of information about stocks that were going to hit the jackpot were very twisted.
Even after he was nailed to the fact that such a future was unpredictable, his interest never ceased.
“It would be.”
But, do you know how much I poured on this stone? That’s ten million dollars. ten million dollars. If there is a fairy nestled in a stone the size of a fingernail, what wish can you make? ‘Please kick out the asshole sitting in the seat next to the bus’ would be the end. But, did the guy who was participating in the auction with me really have the momentum to buy this if he had the money?
“Isn’t there a reason you need that much?”
okay! They have other reasons for needing this stone. It’s not about making a vain wish come true!
“Isn’t it just a matter of collecting a lot and making a big wish? What do you mean you will rule the world? like that.”
like a kid So what’s the reason to collect stones like crazy? You can rule the world as much as you want if you just get some money, hire some villains, and make a wish like ‘I want to get along with the heroes who are hostile’. Still, the fact that you are constantly collecting stones means that there is a purpose on a much larger scale than that.
… It may be.
Even if there was a setback in the progress of any plans, they showed a willingness not to use this stone at all.
That meant saving as many stones as possible to achieve the ultimate goal.
“From what I’ve heard, that’s a far more plausible argument. If it was such a frivolous goal, there would be no reason to spare stones.”
Interesting. Maybe it’s going to be a big event that can’t even be compared to Jinjo. So, what are you going to do going forward?
“When do you have fun?”
When you look at your bankbook?
“No, nothing like that. Isn’t it fun to destroy the card tower that others have built up hard?”
Oh, of course. don’t be very happy
William laughed softly.
As if he understood what I was trying to say.
“I will use this stone.”
You mean they can’t use it?
“Of course, there is a purpose, but if you want to make it even more fun than that, shouldn’t you make a wish like this?”
what wish?
“’I wish I could have more of these stones in my hands.’ How is it. Don’t you think it’s going to be a lot of fun?”
… the best. If I had been a little younger, I would have made you a business partner. Sorry.
