Dwarf God (2)
Actually, it wasn’t as surprising as I thought.
Ordinary people in this world, who have no doubt that their four races are the only intelligent beings, might have been shocked if they heard it, but I was at a level where I could go over and say, ‘Ah, is that really the setting?’
Besides, seeing that it was already the heart of a dragon, I couldn’t help but think that a dragon actually existed.
Rather, in the case of dragons, it would be a bit disappointing if they did not appear in the fantasy world.
“To think that the feeling of having it at all is just that…”
“But… even if there were dragons and giants, it means ‘there were’, right?
Isn’t it strange to have feelings beyond interest or curiosity about an existence that has already disappeared, no matter how great it was?
“…You’re not wrong. No matter how great it is, it’s just an existence that has already disappeared.”
The dwarf god had a vague feeling for the first time right after meeting me and approached the statues depicting dragons and giants and slowly caressed them.
In my mind, there were many things I wanted to ask about why those great beings disappeared, how even if they disappeared, no record of them remained, and what the dragon heart the magician I was dealing with had right now. The desire to be urged has disappeared.
Just as the elf god remembered Orion and chewed on vague memories, it was clear that the dwarf god was also chewing on his own memories.
Well, rather than being considerate of such an emotional situation, if I bother to interrupt immersion in such a situation, the conversation may be disrupted. I think it will take care of itself even if I leave it alone anyway. If so, time won’t be a big issue either.
While I was thinking about that as I looked at the dwarf god’s lonely back, the dwarf, who had come to his senses, looked at me and shook his head.
“You’re working hard to add a plausible reason to every action.”
…I waited without saying anything, and then this man.
As soon as I woke up from my thoughts, I looked around with a sullen expression at the words of the Dwarf God pointing out my thoughts.
I want you to know that it was an expression of protest in its own way.
“If a man has something to say, he should say it. Why are you acting like that?
That’s because I had a goal I wanted to get by acting that way, it’s because I couldn’t see the stake right away. It’s hard no matter how hard it is.
“Huh… He’s a strangely twisted guy. I took out that guy from Orion and f*cked him.”
Having said that, I’ve never seen the footprints of that Orion nobleman, let alone the real one, so I can’t sympathize with him at all.
To be honest, even if I hear the story that I resemble someone I don’t know at all, I’m just at a loss as to how to react.
“Yes. You’re right. It was pointless. Let’s get back to the main topic.”
I waited for the dwarf god’s mouth to open with a little nervousness. From now on, I can hear the story that only the real gods know, not my fictional world view.
No matter how useless the information may seem, I must not miss a single letter because I do not know when and how I can use it.
“There was once a time when six races roamed this land at the same time. But… dragons and giants perished.
…
The impact was strong from the first sentence.
Even if it could be said that it was destroyed, it was destroyed in less than a day?
Even if a fatal disease that kills only dragons and giants occurs, that would be impossible.
“Were the dragons and giants actually intelligent on the same level as the other four races? Or was there something wrong with them?”
I asked while looking at the statues of the six races.
Unlike the other four races, the figures of dragons and giants depicted in overwhelming sizes seemed to be able to overwhelm the other four races even with their size.
How can these tribes perish overnight?
Contrary to its appearance, it was weaker than expected, and unless there was a restriction that it could not handle divine power, I did not understand it.
However, the dwarf god said that there were six races that worshiped the gods.
There must have been a dragon god and a giant god, but they were the only ones who couldn’t deal with divine power? Or did they deal with mana from birth?
“The brain that somehow draws conclusions from limited information is really high-quality. However, some of the premises were wrong. Dragons and giants were far superior to us. And they could also handle divine power. Each object is their own. Divine power so powerful that it is no different from a god. In the first place, the concept of a god for those two was different from ours. Rather than an object of faith, I felt like their leader.”
My head hurt a little from the sudden outpouring of information.
Of course, of course, dragons and giants were much superior to the other four races. Even if we put aside the difference between races and assume that all six races of gods, including the dwarf god in front of us, are of the same class, each dragon and giant is almost identical to the gods. that they were equals.
…The fact that all of those beings died overnight had no choice but to come to a conclusion.
Some existence superior to that wished for their death.
It didn’t make sense if it wasn’t that way. It was impossible no matter how much you think about it, that such a huge race would perish overnight due to natural reasons.
Not even a single line of information about them is left on the ground. Unless someone intentionally deletes all the information, it will inevitably have a huge impact on the ground. How could such a thing be possible?
It seemed impossible that there was an existence that could destroy such a tremendous race overnight and erase all information related to it, but…
I raised my hand and looked at the stigma engraved on me.
“By any chance, does Carlyul-sama serve someone?”
As the elf god pointed out the peculiarity of my abilities, the assumptions I had in my mind passed through my head.
If the gods are personal gods with emotions, wouldn’t those gods also be able to believe in someone? Just as creatures on earth believe that the gods created themselves, someone who created the gods.
The dwarf god looked at the stigma on the back of his hand I was looking at and shook his head.
“Honestly, I was dubious… I never thought that there would be a human being who could reach this far with clues like this. The fundamental frame of thought is really different.”
Can you not overlook the delusional power of a person who lives all day on the web?
“I cannot give you an answer to that question.”
It was a denial of not being able to tell you, but it was a stronger answer than anything else.
If there is no one to believe in, then it is okay not to believe in it. If there are no constraints, whether from emotion or other compulsive causes, even the gods will not answer according to their own will, unless there is something to bind them. It’s not that I won’t, it’s because there’s no way that I can’t answer.
Something that made even the living gods bound by certain rules and wiped out all records of two races that were far superior to others overnight.
That something above the commonly known gods was almost certain.
“They disappeared…well. I still don’t know if that was an example for us, or if the feelings they harbored remained and embodied like grudges. Like I said before, I don’t have enough knowledge. That means I’m starting to appear on the surface.”
The arrogance of overstepping what should not be surpassed, the indolence of one’s duty, the jealousy of what one cannot reach, and the rage that erupted all of them.
The emotions that the dwarf god told us were the four sins that people living in this land could not be unaware of.
Maybe the origins of demons are dragons and giants? Isn’t that about the same as nephews and nephews of the gods?
I can’t remember how to use it right now, but it must have been extremely unconventional information.
The only origin of demons known to the world is that they were born with the opposite sin in order to antagonize the gods and taint their virtues.
“uh…”
Only stupid sounds of pain came out of my mouth.
In the end, are gods and demons similar beings with only different emotions called virtue and sin to follow?
There were many questions that popped into my head, but it was difficult to prioritize them.
Anyway, is this information that I can just tell you?
Am I dying? Aren’t I being silenced?
“Can’t you help falling into the wrong place once in a while?”
Humans have to ventilate by blowing useless wind in this way once in a while when their brain is overloaded, right?
“It’s a unique way of thinking I’ve never heard of before…”
How long would you have lived if you lived a… Kuh-hum, you must have lived an incredibly long time.
“Didn’t Ariel tell you? If you are, you will be able to handle demonic power. In the first place, the idea that only divine power and demonic power are incompatible with each other is wrong.”
…
“Wait.”
I reflexively raised my hand to stop the dwarven god from speaking.
Is it wrong to think that divine power and demonic power are incompatible with each other?
“Your face is more shocking than when I heard that there were dragons and giants.”
Yes, it’s almost common knowledge that dragons exist in a fantasy world! But that divine power and demonic power are not incompatible… I’ve never heard of it anywhere!
“To be precise, I’m not saying that the two aren’t in conflict.”
I feel like I’m having a fever in my head. If I crack an egg and put it on my forehead, I might be able to fry it.
In a situation like this, a superior being’s unique way of speaking? Do you want to see me go crazy?!
“I don’t get tired of just looking at the change in expression. It feels like I’m looking at molten iron that can become anything. I can see why Ariel liked it so much.”
It’s strange. Obviously, on the human level, no one could see through it, but what on earth did the gods look at and say that my expression is so diverse?
“Listen to the story until the end, you bastard. The energy of divine power and demonic power are opposite to each other. And, all the energy of the world is opposite to each other. I guess.”
I tilted my head at the cryptic story that seemed to know something but was ambiguous.
Could you please explain it a bit more simply?
“Think about it. The divine powers of the four races are all different. Each other’s divine powers do not react to the extreme like demonic powers, and they do not mix with each other.”
Oh, come to think of it…?
“Even the demonic powers of demon worshipers do not mix. Their energies are also incompatible with each other. All energies in the world are mutually incompatible with each other.”
It seemed that the strands of what I meant roughly were caught. I assumed only an extreme top-down relationship, but it was already enough to be called a contradiction just because it didn’t mix like water and oil. Although it was overlooked, all the divine powers possessed by each race had different properties. Depending on the nature, each race’s specialized holy magic was also different. Just as the nature of mana changes depending on the specialized magic.
…Hmm? Similar characteristics…?
“He’s a guy who can’t quite control the direction of his thoughts. That’s right. As you guessed, the aura known on the ground as mana was originally part of the divine power. The divine power that dragons dealt with is currently only called mana.”
Heh heh heh, I’m going crazy Really. So mana is a type of divine power?
If I catch someone passing by after I come to my senses and say something like this, before I worry about whether they will believe me or not, I have to worry about whether they will accuse me of heresy or not.
How the hell do you use this?
“The divine power that dragons dealt with was tailored to them. Their outstanding intellect transformed the abstract concept of imagery, an essential element in casting spell magic, into the realm of calculation. All dragons have their own unique spell spell, now magic. It was also the reason why I was a master at being called.”
Magic is sacred magic…? Mana is divine power…?
“The dragons and giants all disappeared, and I don’t know how magic spread to the ground again, but those who learned magic began to appear one by one. However, since they weren’t dragons, there was no choice but to be limited.”
It seemed like he knew what that limit was. The fixed limit of mana. As time went by, he could only deal with one attribute of magic.
The limit that the magician who fought with me wanted to overcome. Not fire magic, but all magic, and realizing miracles like holy magic.
Now I see that the wizard was right.
The dragon’s heart must have taught the magician how to implement magic in the dragon’s way, and since its essence was divine law, the dragon’s wisdom and power were no different from the wisdom and power of a god.
furthermore…
“That heart, wasn’t it created by demon worshipers?”
“Heh heh, if you think that the demon-serving creatures on earth will be able to understand even the tiniest bit of the dragon’s true power, you are very mistaken. I just stuck it in.”
Yes, it seemed so. No matter how much it is to create a holy relic, there must be a degree.
“Then what is that heart?”
“Even I didn’t know that the heart would be found and awakened by someone. Even we didn’t know where it was. It was… the heart of the dragon god. Wizards cast magic into the earth’s atmosphere, which generates infinite mana. It’s also the reason it has enough mana to use.”
Is it real… No, it’s a question I thought I would too, but is it really real…
Somehow, the more I fought, the stronger I got. Turns out, I was fighting a real god, but how did I win this?
“Fortunately, I haven’t fully awakened my self. No matter how much I have a heart, it will take several decades for the self that permeates the heart to awaken.”
It looked a bit clumsy for a dragon god. Anyway, is it taking that much time?
Do you still have a bit of room? Are the dwarves making a fuss for nothing?
“Until you give me useless advice.”
…What did I do?
There were no stings, but I tried to look at the dwarven god with a sad expression.
I am a victim too!
“Why did you talk about alternative emotions? No, you don’t have to answer. In the end, just know that the awakening of the heart became ridiculously fast thanks to that.”
Was the realization of that incomprehensible context really the problem…?
What the hell did you realize with that sarcasm? Is this a world of talent?
“I was so impressed that he even established a new and advanced magic system.”
“An advanced magic system?”
“In my heart, I constantly pile up circles similar to the corolla you thoughtlessly created, and put mana of different attributes between the circles to freely handle mana of all attributes. It’s an absurd magic, even to me, that increases the magic. It seems that the magician who has already integrated with the dragon named it Circle Magic Theory after the shape of a circle.”
…That…I’m a little used to it? It’s a naming sense I’ve seen many places, but that’s it.
Hearing that circle magic is being created because of me makes me feel a little happy.
“No matter how you look at it, he’s a crazy guy… Wake up, you bastard! Didn’t all the dwarves die now thanks to that!”
No, why is it my fault! It’s your fault for not leaving sooner!
“If you carelessly try to interfere with dragon-related parts, you might not be able to provide any plausible help and just disappear. So I took my time and tried to fix it very slowly, but you created a ridiculous tree out of nowhere and provoked them, and it’s here. Didn’t it happen!”
Keuheum… Let’s not be too cowardly to compete with facts.
Was it that tree again? What the hell is that tree? I didn’t make it!
“You still don’t know the heterogeneity of your ability…is dangerous? Your holy power is different from others. It embraces all abilities so that you can handle them. The holy power you infused without thinking is used in sacred magic. Do you know what will happen if you remain there?”
Of course, it was a topic I had never thought about before. Common sense would have it that it would just scatter into the air…?
“Yes, that’s true of other divine powers. The mixed divine power will collide with mana and disappear. But your divine power is different. Rather, it absorbs the mana in the air and the divine power of the dragon right there. If you have divine power, even that.”
Having said that, my holy power sounds like a coiled monster.
“It’s not wrong. It absorbs energy at random like that, and finally bears fruit. The crown that you breathed divine power into only once became a sacred object. Do you think it might have been?”
…Hmm… The tree leader who protects the surrounding trees without being affected by pests?
“It is a disaster that absorbs the energy in the air endlessly and grows endlessly, eventually covering the entire world and destroying it!”
I beg your pardon?
I thought for a moment that what I had been told was wrong and looked at the dwarven god.
But the dwarf god was just looking at me with an unwavering expression.
That determined expression seemed to be telling you to accept what you just heard was true.
Is this what you usually feel when people around you make a shocked expression?
No, why did the story suddenly flow like that?
Suddenly, there were two disasters to be prevented. It was only natural that the headaches would also double.
