Chapter 1180 The Melancholy of the God of Creativity Part 2

But that was not the main problem at had right now. The main problem was actually plaguing the mind of the creator was the unexpected event that just took place in the world of ShangriLa Frontier.

「…… “Weissash”, let me ask you this again; why did you decide to lend your sword to one of the players?」

To borrow the words of Amachi Ritsu, that weapon was supposed to be an event weapon way down the line. …… Not to mention that it is the pivotal weapon for that particular NPC. So, for a player to receive that sword so soon, it was way before it desired time for this to happen…… and because of that, “Agatreo” is currently held by a player who does not even know its real name and its significance.

It was a really confusing situation to Tsukuyo. Because a thing that was not supposed to be rented to a player was rented to a player. After all, “Agatreo” was a system-locked weapon that could only be lend to a player under a very specific set of conditions and restraints. But for it to actually be in the hands of a player…… Just how……?

So far, no one from the current player base was able to answer that question. But one of the hologram windows that were suspended in mid-air in the room was singing quite the different song.

「SS7: CHANGE DETECTED IN THE NATURE AND IMPLEMENTATION HISTORY OF THE PRIMARY TARGET ORCHESTRA’S “CANON”, AS WELL AS THE DEGREE OF DIFFICULTY…… BASED ON THOSE INFORMATION, WEISSASH THE IMMORTAL DECIDED THAT BORROWING OF THE SWORD WOULD BE OPTIMAL COURSE OF ACTION AS TO BALANCE THE CHANCES.」

…… Huh! ! ! ! ! ………….. HUH ! ! ! ! ! ! !

「Sword of Assistance…… Ahh, I see. It’s surprisingly fitting, while at the same time not really deviating from the world view all that much.」

That was the only convincing reason in this situation. Unique Scenario EX associated with the seventh strongest breed of Unique Monster called “Weissash the Immortal”, one that is closely related to the hidden numerical value of the stat called “Vorpal Soul”.

It is a parameter that can change quite a lot depending on the actions taken by the player, and if it is too low, the player would be unable to progress the associated Unique Secnario EX further…… But at the current moment there were four players whole nametags were labeled as “Vorpal Soul levels at critical value”.

· Sanraku

· Akitsu Akane

· Saiga-0

· Imron

However, even though all four marked names were sharing the same status, their parameters were vastly different from one another.

The owner of a weapon belonging to the Hero of Old, one of the front—line top ranking players, the one who managed to befriend an evil dragon…… Even all of those people were ranked as “Warning” specimens and they were possible targets for closer observation, the levels of Vorpal Soul assigned to Sanraku were clearly off the charts here. Compared to the second place of Akitsu Akane, Sanraku’s Vorpal Soul levels were almost one and a half times greater than hers. So the difference here was way too big to simply overlook it.

That, and there is also something else: the fact that apparently Weissash managed to recognize Sanraku as one of his personal favorites.

And there was no point in doubting the judgment of the sub-servers that were in charge of regulating the AIs of the seven strongest creatures in the game world. After all, she was the one who wrote them from scratch, and she knew them best, way better than anyone else.

「The resolution here is four to three…… I see, so aside the notions of good and bad, it would make a whole lot of sense.」

……! ! ! ! !

If so, then world of Shangri-La Frontier was undergoing some serious blurring at the current moment, but even so, it was being operated as a whole the same way as it always was up until now. After all, the individual can influence the world and start to change it in the same way in which the world can influence and change the individual……

BANG!

~ ~ ~ ~! ! ? ! ?

「…… What the hell is this? It’s been going on for a while now! Not to mention it’s really distracting!」

Once you lock this room from the inside, you can not interfere with it from the outside unless you do not open the door. And because of the interference that’s been going on for a while now, Tsukuyo finally decided that she’d had enough and opened the door. And the one standing in them was none other than Amachi Ritsu, holding onto her knee.

「What’s this? Did you try to bang on the door so much that you eventually hurt you knee in the process?」

「Y-You absolute bitch…… Not only the Raid Monster, not only the data inside of the Leviathan, but now my precious Orchestra…… Stop fucking around with other people’s work already……!!!」

「…… Is that all you had to say? Because if so, I am going back to sleep.」

「YOU BITCH!!!」

She then closed the door and locked it firmly. That’s it, net order of business would be to take care of soundproofing this room some more…… Thinking like that, her thoughts became directed towards her beloved world and different ways in which she could still expand it. Or alternatively, she could always raze it all to the ground and build it all back up from the very beginning.

「Yes, yes…… Just as my Grandfather used to say…… Creating new worlds from the ground up is so much fun!」

They say that it takes a special kind of madness to want to destroy the world and create it anew. But that’s not how she was seeing that matter. For her, it takes courage to get rid of what you know and enter the territory of the unknown, venturing there and filling the empty void with life and matter. It takes courage. Courage and incredible vision.

And while the creator of ShangriLa Frontier continued to laugh while entertaining that thought a little bit more than she should have been, there was certainly a faint glimmer of both obsession and madness that could be seen in her eyes.
