I was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but that World is at Peace (WN)
Chapter 1828: The Truth About the Lost Child ②When Tre-san was talking with Fors-san before, she jokingly said that she was lost because she was cursed by the world or something like that, but I never thought that really turned out to be true.
It seems that Shiro-san clearly has some idea why, but is Shiro-san the cause of this?
(If you ask for the cause, I certainly am the cause of it. It’s a story from quite a long time ago, but when I first created this world, I experimented with various things. Kuro described me back then as one indifferent to the world, just a mere observer. While it’s true that nothing had particularly moved my emotions, it might be more accurate to say that I was observing the results after making various adjustments, rather than me just watching the world passively. Well, part of the reason was that I was advised by Earth God to try various things……)
Come to think of it, wasn’t Trinia only made up of the God Realm and the Demon Realm at first? From the way Shiro-san spoke, am I correct in recognizing that she had made a lot of adjustments to the creatures in the Demon Realm?
(Yes. In the first place, the reason why the Demon Realm is more diverse than the other realms is that I have attempted various things in the past. Basically, I was trying to make this world’s own creatures by making various adjustments based on the humans I saw in the world created by Earth God.)
Ahh, because humans were basically your reference point, that’s why there are many humanoids among the Demons as well huh…… It’s quite interesting to hear such stories from the creator of the world. So, does that mean Tre-san was also born while you were doing those experiments?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt(Yes. Excluding Kuro and Alice, the Six Kings and Ein are also beings that I modified in the beginning. At that time, I still didn’t know how I should adjust them, so in some cases, they ended up becoming so powerful that they had a great impact on the world, so after that, I held back a bit more and the adjustments I made made them specialized in various fields.)
Speaking of which, since it was mentioned before that Isis-san was created by Shiro-san using the soul of the Great Evil God of Despair, it’s natural that she would be someone that Shiro-san had modified huh…… I understand now why the Six Kings and Ein-san have outstanding power compared to the other Demons.
As for Tre-san, she must be one of the people who have been modified afterwards.
(Yes. Or rather, it’s not all of them, but the current Six Kings Executives…… Those who are called Duke-ranks and Peak Count-ranks, quite a few of them are ones I have experimented with.)
……Eh? Are there that many?
(No, there actually used to be a lot more…… but Alice erased about 80% of them, so the number was greatly reduced. Well, by then, my interests had moved on to other things, so I didn’t really care what she did……)
Ahh, I heard that during the great purge of the Demon Realm by Alice, those who were judged to be evil among the powerful Demons were uprooted and disposed of, and it seems like among them were many beings that Shiro-san had modified.
(Returning the topic to this Tre in front of Kaito-san, she was modified as, if I were to describe it, an unbound free being. She has been given the ability, which is almost like an authority, to naturally step aside factors that would hinder her movements. I was wondering if perhaps, that’s why……)
……I see, so that’s how it is…… For example, if Tre-san is going around with Cento-san and Cien-san and she gets interested in something and tries to go there, the obstacles hindering her movements will naturally be brushed aside, regardless of Tre-san’s intentions…… Cento-san and Cien-san wouldn’t notice Tre-san’s movements, and even with Detection Magic or similar methods, they wouldn’t be able to detect Tre-san if she’s acting with a certain purpose, due to the broad definition of “factors that could potentially hinder her movements”.
Combining Tre-san’s carefree personality with her tendency to simply start doing what she likes after straying off, once she gets lost, it’s quite challenging to find her again. This means that at least until Tre-san completes her objective, she becomes impossible to track.
(What I had originally intended to create was a creature with free-spirited actions, but it seems she had inadvertently acquired the secondary characteristic of being prone to wandering and getting lost.)
And Shiro-san being the person she is, as she had said earlier, her interests had shifted to other things while Alice conducted that great purge, so she hadn’t particularly observed Tre-san’s life later, so I guess she just remembered it after I thought of it.
Even so, I see, things do make sense if Shiro-san’s power had an influence in this. At this rate, it’s even possible that Shiro-san had done something for Fors-san to have that severe lack of sense of direction……
(No, I didn’t do anything, nor do I know what’s with her.)
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFors-san was unrelated to Shiro-san and really was just directionally challenged!?
<Afterword>
Serious-senpai : [Come to think of it, many of the Six Kings Executives are unique beings, so it makes sense that Shiro had modified them in various ways.]
? ? ? : [Not all of them though. There are also unique beings like Ozma-san and Camellia-san who were apparently naturally occurring anomalies untouched by Shallow Vernal-sama’s influence. Looking at it the other way though, it means that in the Demon Realm back then, the upper limit of abilities that one could naturally reach was around the level of those two. It illustrates just how exceptional the power of the Six Kings is.]
Serious-senpai : [In that case, is it correct to say that the only time Shiro had a hand on the Human Realm was when she created it?]
? ? ? : [There’s no mistaking that. Around the time of the creation of the Human Realm…… About 19000 years ago, Shallow Vernal-sama’s interest had completely shifted to Kaito-san, so from that point on, she didn’t make any modifications.]
Serious-senpai : [I see…… What about Lilia though?]
? ? ? : [Nah, that one’s just a bug in this world.]
