NPC Town-building Game

chapter 48

Seika bounces back and takes a distance from me.

I have never seen that face ……with a bewitching smile before.

“Hey, are you still drunk? Stop joking. Its important.”

When I take a step to grab her arm, she jumps back one more step to make fun of me. The atmosphere is different than usual.

She leans her back on a big tree and swipes the bible cover with her finger.

I feel strange sexuality in the gesture. Her hairs are totally different from usual.

Something is strange, something is strange. Seika wont do it even if she is drunk.

“I’ll get angry if you dont stop it..”

“Oh, scary scary”

The words which returned were of a man whom I didn not recognize.

A man appeared behind the large tree and Seika leans on him.

“Yoshio …”

Carol holds my hands tightly.

She seems to be terrified of the man atmosphere in a different world.

I am worried about the language barrier.

“Like I said, its fine.”

I put Carol behind me and step forward.

If I were to describe the man in one word then he is a heavy metal bandman. Dyed Blond hair which is not like the natural golden hair of Carol. Countless piercings on the ears and lips.

Jeans full of holes as if taken recessive damage and shirt of a foreign brand.

A type which I never would be.

“Who are you?”

“I don’t think you want to hear my name. Well no matter who I am. I just want this book.”

He grabs the bible in the hand of Seika.

Seika passed the book without any resistance while smiling and staring at the bandman.

An expression which can only be defined as of someone fallen in love.

My hear beats violently just by looking at that face. I can judge whether my feelings are jealousy or anger.

But even though my blood is boiling, my head is cool.

Normally, they will loook as lover but thats not normal. What was normal was yesterday’s experience.

“… Do you know what the book is?”

“It’s the Bible of God of Fate. I don’t know how you brought it into this world. You know, I have something similar.”

The bandman took out his smartphone. A screen similar to the game is shown on the screen.

No way….Stay calm and cool.

“Are you a Player?”

“Oh, you understand quickly.”

“What did you do to Seika?”

“Don’t you think we are lovers?”

Their appearance looks like that of a spoiled lovers. However,

“Your face is not to her liking.”

I dont know Seika’s type but I can proudly say that she will hate him.

“I don’t care about the stupid exchanges, answer the questions. I’m asking you that if you know the book. And what did you do to her?”

I talked smoothly without being scared….I am really amazed that I can keep up with this.

In the old days, I was never terrified of the other party’s appearance. However now I have faced life crisis twice.

There is also Carol behind me. I cant give her a weak and bad impression.

“Hey, let’s enjoy the conversation. You are a boring man. You’re the God of Fate in the game?

Is he a evil God player just like Yamamoto?

I think that he can manipulate minds.

Normally only a smart guy will realize this but I immediately realized that it is the case.

“Why did Seika become like that, maybe because of your power? Isn’t the Evil God side only controlling the monsters in the game?”

“Oh, don’t you know about that? There are quite a few gods on the side of the Lord God and there are quite a few on the side of the Evil god. I’m the God of Temptation, I can amplify or mess with others’ desires like you can control Destiny. Especially if one is weakened or drunk and unconscious Then it’s easy to do it.”

He embraces Seika but she doesnt make a disgusting face. On the contrary, her face loosens as if drunk.

I am the God of Fate but I cant control the fate in the real world. But this guy can use the power from the fantasy world?

Is there a secret which I did not know about and it is still hidden in the game?

And … wait a minute. He said “amplify the desires”.

Listening to those words, one question pops in my mind. Maybe….

“Maybe you … met with Yamamoto yesterday?”

“Oh, you noticed that ex-NEET? Bingo! Before he went to your house to play, the loser lost his brain.”

His appearance of tilting his neck and sticking out his tongue is giving me a murderous feelings.

It was because of this guy that Yamamoto-san was driven into such madness.

“Wow, scary face. I just told that I just amplified his desires. It’s a harmless to those who dont want much….and again. Thank you!”

All his actions are irritating me.

Calm down. Calm down. If I lose my calm here, i would be playing into his hands. Maybe he is trying to upset me and manipulate my mind.

But this guy talks well though he has no obligations to tell me about his abilities.

“Why does a evil player want my Bible?”

“There are people who will buy your Bible for high price.”

…… Buy it. Why?

What will they do with it after buying it? I dont know what he wants.

“I like things like this!”

“Hey, really, you dont understand the value and the real power and meaning of this game … you dont seem to know anything.”

This bandman just said something meaningful, contrary to what he is thinking.

And regarding his hand around Seika’s waist … I want to beat him now but he seems light hearted so I will give priority to the information.

…… Now, be patient, be patient.

“Can you tell me more because I don’t even know it?”

“Well, I’m sorry. I was alone in this cold sky, I just came out to see a face full of regret. Its getting late and you dont look good”

He grabbed Seika’s chest while saying that, I don’t need to be patient anymore …

I walk up the bandman in silence.

“Hey, are you angry? Or are you going to bootlick me?”

There is the Bible in one and other hand is holding Seika.

Even if he has the weapon in his possession, he will be hit first.

In the end, when I tried to attack him, he pushed Seika towards me.

When I hurriedly looked at her face, she was already fainted.

She leaned on me as her whole body was falling.

“Hey, I have the book. I dont need her.”

Recently there have been lot of violent developments so I thought he was going to start a fight but he is running away from me.

I call Carol and put Seika on the bench.

“I’m sorry but please look after her!”

I cannot let him escape with the Bible.

There are too many unclear points. I should be able to extract more information.

“Yoshio! You don’t have to give a chase.”

Carol told and I stopped my feet.

I knew that few seconds of hesitation in this situation can allow him to escape.

“What do you mean–“

“Wow, my feet, my feet.”

Looking back at the screams of the bandman, he was humorously swinging around his arms without moving from the ground.

I didnt understand the development for a moment but I immediately looked at his feets and understood it.

The lower part of his leg below the knees was like a stone and Destiny was looking at the man collapsed at the distance.

Staring alternately between me and him

“Why is it here?”

I unintentionally ask that question.

“Um, Destiny wanted to go to the festival together with us so I brought it.”

Carol pokes its head lightly The reason the backpack is open is because it was there.

“Oh, hey! What’s happening to my feet! Don’t come here!”

I slowly approached the bandman while holding Destiny who is terrified about his petrified foot.

“What, what is that guy! Did the lizard do something? Oh, hey. Say something! Dont approach me silently! I am seriously saying this I was bad. I can put the book over here, okay okay..”

“Noisy. Can you just petrify that mouth so he can’t speak?”

Destiny cheerfully nods.

The bandman vigrously shakes his left and right with a pale face.

I smiled and said, “Please do it.”

The bandman with stone lips is rolling on the ground..

“I’m going to break the petrification of your mouth now but if you shout, my pet will petrify you mouth. You know what that means, right?”

I asked for the confirmation with a smile. He agreed..

“Do it Destiny.”

It stares at his mouth and blinks once and his lips return to their normal color.

“You can talk now. I’d like you to answer honestly because I have a lot to ask.”

“Well, ask me anything but don’t kill me.”

Its nice that he is scared to be honest. I just threatened him a little.

“Then, question one. How did you attract Seika?”

“It’s determined by the power in the game …”

He speaks in a polite tone.

“The power of the miracles that can be used in the game by the points?”

“Oh, Yes…..I destroyed a village in the game and leveled up and thus allowing me to activate miracles in reality. But I dont understand how….You are still level 1 so why do you have the power to turn people into stone?”

I did not hear the last part well but the story so far did not suprise me.

What is the level system?

I dont know anything about it at all…..

I don’t know anything at all … The description which I read when starting the game..

《Miracles that can be activated by the fate points are there. As the village grows and number of inhabitants increase, the content of the miracles will also be upgraded, so please do your best.”

It was written such. I thought that was just the miracles which could be used in the game but did it meant this?

The aim of the Evil God is to destroy the village.

The aim of the Lord God is to prosper the village.

Those who meet the conditions will be able to level up and use miracles in the real world. Did that mean this?

The game is something more than I imagined?

“The next question. The gut who buys the book, what can he do with the Bible?”

“I don’t even know … I was sent an email with your address and the details of the purchase on my smartphone. If I got a lot of money, I got more points and I can use more miracles”

I am worried about the guy who made the request but somehow I managed to do this so I wont be targeted for the time being.

“If you can use fascination then why didnt you fascinate me?”

“It’s a violation of the rules to use miracles directly against the opposing players. If you’re hurt by a miracle, you’re going to answer questions and your game is going to be over so I didnt want to hurt you with a miracle. Therefore I did all that…”

If this story is true the did Yamamoto got game over not because all his monsters were killed but because he put his hands on me?

“Well, wait a minute. Where did you find that information? Did you interact with other players?”

“I guess it’s decided … yes. Well, if your level rises then the Exchange Square will open.”

Exchange Square. Isnt that something which is often present in MMO-RPG games. An online bulletin board where players can exchange information and the management also answers the questions.

“Woudnt the game be over? Exchanging information is a violation of the rules.”

“Oh, that’s not it. This game isnt over when you talk with other players.”

Is that so.

A lot of information which I was supposed to know after developing the village and raising my level.

I am surprised at the new facts. I still have some questions.

“About the guy who want to buy my Bible, how did he know about my address and me?”

“I don know. It was all over the Bulletin board of the information exchange on the Evil Side. The game costs a lot of money but I didnt always have the money. If you see the request to buy the book at that time…..Tell me woudnt you try to do it for 10 million yen?”

Ten million … is he sane?

What is this broadcast about me?

I guess, the guys will keep coming one after the another for the money. Its too painful that they know my address.

“Well, lets remove the petrification now. I told you everything which I know. I wont aim at you anymore.”

I cant trust the words of this shameless guy.

A chance to get 10 million yen just by robbing a book. Will he let go this easily?

“If we send some time here then other people might come. I wont be able to aim you then.”

His arguments are true. However, I dont want to release him.

The power of the miracles is dangerous. I cant leave him as it is.

If so then there is only one choice.

“Oh, good. I’ll remove petrification but … Destiny, can we just remove petrification here?”

What I pointing to was his pocket.

“Hey!

The bandman realizes what I am trying to do and shots loudly but Destiny petrifies his mouth again.

The pocket was no longer a stone, so I took out the smartphone and started opertating it.

I click <> in the options field.

”Are you sure??” A reconfirmation sentence appeared. I selected “Yes”.

Then game over was displayed and the game disappears from the smartphone just like the time with Yamamoto-san.

The rampaging bandman turned white and became calm.

He should have lost his memories of the game. I have repelled on threat but it would be no wonder if other people came.

If only it was me but there is still Carol and Seika and it might involve my family.

“We have only one choice to break this situation … Carol.”

“What”

Carol who was with fainted Seika got off the bench and walked around.

I bent down and adjusted my line of sight, full of determination.

“Let’s go and meet God.”
