Artificial God (5)
-It is time to look at the issues of superhuman society. I heard that there is some surprising news today.
-Yes, the awakened already know. It is said that the interface system provided by the Hero Universe has only begun restarting.
-Oh, my goodness! In the meantime, many casualties have occurred because of it!
-Yes. According to the notice recently confirmed on the information bulletin board by US high ranker Juno Valentine, who acquired the status of an intermediate member of the Hero Universe, the system was disrupted in many other worlds besides Earth, making it impossible to view status, items, and gate information. And in line with Earth, other worlds are also normalizing.
-If so, does this mean there is a problem with the Hero Universe?
-Not quite. Why doesn’t the site become available when the internet server is extensively inspected? I think what happened this time will fall into the category. It happened, unfortunately, during a system overhaul once every thousand years.
-That means that you don’t have to worry about this situation for at least a thousand more years. But, it’s different from having no problem at all, right? Do any others there have concerns?
-The Hero Universe is like a god to the awakened. It’s impossible to doubt it. More than anything…
-More than anything?
-There is no substitute for the Hero Universe. What we can do is pray the system won’t have a problem again. And…
-And? What is it?
-To increase your membership level to grow closer to the secret of the system.
Tsukuyo laughed and turned the TV off. Just three hours ago, humans hadn’t even known of the Hero Universe’s existence, and now they were admiring it.
“But it can be said that Anvil is so great.”
“Now I don’t have to work here anymore, right?”
Shu was leaning against the sofa as she mumbled. Just today, they had been going through an S-class gate when the occurrence had happened. When the other top-level members hear that these transcendentals were doing these chores, they will laugh at them.
“Obviously, Anvil will greatly appreciate us. If Anvil has a conscience, he should.”
“Hehe, let’s make a pretty child.”
“It’s a great race to make a child alone. It seems possible to go beyond the process and only produce the result.”
“Together! I will make it! With grandfather! Together!”
The two were still going at each other. Even transcendental people become shortsighted in matters related to their emotions.
“By the way, it’s fun. There’s a new membership system in the Hero Universe.”
“I think it’s the funniest thing for regular members to become top-notch.”
“That’s because those who belonged to the existing Hero Universe were those who had the potential to transcend in some way.”
Tsukuyo, having opened the interface of the reorganized Hero Universe to check the various bulletin boards, smiled as she looked at them divided by member rank.
“After going through novice and beginner, it’s only apprentice. It’s a system that makes sense for the people of Earth.”
“But is this the right way? The Hero Universe embraces all superhumans and manages gates on behalf of Gaia…”
“The Hero Universe shouldn’t be left as the exclusive secret property of superhumans. You have to show off on the top so even the wicked will fuss less. Moreover, the distinction between classes is strict, right?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yeah, that’s the case when you say that only 0.1% of Earth’s superhumans barely reach the intermediate level.”
Shu seemed a little anxious that the Hero Universe had been released to everyone, but Tsukuyo wasn’t worried at all. Wasn’t this a system created by Anvil? If a problem arose, then this universe was destined to perish. She could accept it calmly.
“Hey!”
At that moment, the door sprang up, and Claire cried out.
“Why hasn’t Shin-hyuk come back when his work is finished?”
“That’s what I’d like to ask. Wasn’t it that you could communicate with Anvil anytime you wanted?”
“No, Vita came back first.”
Tsukuyo looked behind her and noticed a woman with black hair and golden eyes standing behind Claire. Tsukuyo was surprised, but Vita had grown used to people being surprised.
“Ah, that was because my dad helped me a lot.”
Vita responded shyly; however, Tsukuyo didn’t like how she twisted her body along with those words. Helped how?
“…Should I kill that?”
It was Shu who said that. Tsukuyo sighed and slapped her.
“Ouch!”
“If you’re a woman, you’ll have to compete with your own charm. It’s no good to use force.”
“I really can’t understand what you think.”
“Then, does it mean Anvil is alone with Eunah?”
“Perhaps.”
Claire pouted and touched her swollen stomach.
“Eunah also wanted to spend some alone time with Shin-hyuk. It’s regrettable, but I should look away from this just once.”
“Some alone time… I envy her.”
“More than that…”
Claire continued on, ignoring Shu’s comments.
“So in the end, I don’t know where they went.”
“There’s not much to say on the VIP member board. Didn’t Anvil tell you?”
“I think he’ll be back soon after sending Vita first.”
It was Kang Shin-hyuk who always said he wouldn’t let Claire have the child alone, so he wouldn’t be gone long.
“Ah.”
While searching through the VIP member’s bulletin board, Shu found something.
“Loki.”
“Loki?”
It was the ID of a man who took Gaia’s side in the incident, as well as a man who barely survived by shifting to crying on the ground at the end.
“Loki doesn’t have a home.”
“I heard that he wanders across multiple dimensions using superior spatial mobility.”
“What is that?”
“The dimensional wanderer. Those who’ve lost their homeworld and wander through different planes are called dimensional wanderers, and there are a few more besides Loki. It’s just that most of them can’t move easily and stay for a while in one dimension, but Loki doesn’t.”
“It was Janus who smashed Loki’s world, as a bonus.”
“Ah… So why Loki?”
“He said he met grandpa.”
“What?!”
Immediately, Tsukuyo opened the VIP member board, and Claire forced Shu to switch the screen to full public view so she could confirm it.
[Loki – Anvil’s survived, so report your own survival, haha. How’re you all?]
[Ascaldin – Loki, you’re alive!]
[Horus – Are you saying that? Both of you were spared by us.]
[Ascaldin – My conviction was also firm!]
[Super Ultra Galaxy Fist – So where is grandfather?!]
[Tsukuyo – Talk about Anvil, please.]
[Loki – The Hero Universe has changed greatly, Anvil had a big hand in it this time! The frequency of messages has reduced since the administrator is busier.]
[Tsukuyo – Loki… if you don’t tell me, I’ll kill you myself.]
Loki’s next message was rather quickly written.
[Loki – No, you know, when I randomly move, I sometimes move to worlds originally destroyed. Sometimes I go to a world where Jormungand forces are so strong that I have to organize myself. That’s why I don’t have the No. 1 dimensional quest performance rate.]
[Tsukuyo – Loki…]
[Loki – It seems like he’s carrying out armament retrieval with Eunah.]
[Super Ultra Galaxy Fist – Ah… Thinking about it, he didn’t recover all the weapons.]
[Miyang – Is he not going to make weapons in the future? Now that the Hero Universe has been completed, there is no need for additional adjustments by making weapons, that kind of feeling.]
[Horus – I can’t. I haven’t gotten an armament with his true ability.]
[Loki – Oh, haha. So, what is the maximum number of Anvil-grade weapons do you have?]
[Miyang – He’s still not alert.]
[Janus – Anvil grandfather said that when he comes back later, he’ll talk about the new core for the Godslayer… Shall I pick it now?]
[Horus – What?]
[Janus – Loki’s heart.]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm[Loki – Ha, I’ve nothing to say to my comrades who’ve fought together with me for years.]
[Super Ultra Galaxy Fist – I can’t imagine grandfather letting go of his hammer.]
[Miyang – However, it’s true that Anvil’s armaments have too much power. With the completion of the Hero Universe, all the worlds have been normalized… Oh, but I don’t like it.]
[Horus – Anvil…]
[Administrator – You’re worried about nothing.]
At that moment, the bulletin board froze.
[Miyang – ?!]
[Loki – ???]
[Janus – What is it? Who signed up as an administrator? No, this is a VIP member board!]
[Horus – No way… real administrator?]
[Administrator – Yes. The Hero Universe has been reorganized, and the administrator has been granted notification and chat functions.]
[Loki – Ha, I liked that there was a bulletin board that only VIPs could use…]
[Administrator – Anyway, everything that happens in the Hero Universe is under the administrator’s supervision. It seems a screw is missing, like a lizard that couldn’t figure out how a mirror fragment was stuck in it.]
[Loki – Hey, can someone kick the administrator out? Please.]
The VIP members were embarrassed by the appearance of the administrator. But even then, there was a strong person, Mirang, who pushed on.
[Mirang – I was wondering if Anvil was trying to hide. Administrator, do you know his intention?]
[Administrator – Of course. Dad just went out to recover his previous failures.]
[Miyang – Dad?!]
[Administrator – That reaction has already been seen. Dad is planning to melt all his failed works to make new ones, so there is no need to worry.]
[Horus – Good…]
[Administrator – And he plans to sell them according to membership level.]
[Mirang – It feels good that I became a VIP.]
[Administrator – Oh, it looks like he’s returned to Earth.]
[Miyang – Can you give me a dimensional quest for Earth?]
[Administrator – No, unfair.]
[Miyang – Unfair?!]
[Janus – The administrator is really jealous.]
Claire suddenly raised her head. She hurriedly ran to the door, but before she reached it, the door swung open. Her lover, who was a little taller than before, stood there.
“Claire!”
“Shin-hyuk!”
“I’m here too.”
“…Eunah, you…”
With a friend that seemed to be emphasizing her stomach.
The best blacksmith in any dimension had returned, his work complete.
