I Can See Your Code

I see your code (205)

“It’s me who wants to hear an explanation. really.”

Dante looked around and took off his helmet. At the same time, his appearance returns to its original state. He had dark hair and a droopy impression as if everything in the world was bothering him. It was Mir from the East.

He sighed heavily and looked straight at me.

“When I signed the contract, I thought about the combat situation, but I didn’t even have that in mind. Acting, are you serious?”

I’m too good at complaining. Rather, he was more like Dante than me. Maybe it’s because he has a similar personality to the original.

Rather… … The important thing was something else.

I looked at the helmet Mir had taken off. It was also Tarnhelm. What I entrusted to Sva.

He gently pulled the Suba out of his chest and increased its size.

“Did he give you that helmet?”

Mir nodded her head as she looked at him and asked.

“right. I was in the room and suddenly came up and said something, and it would be better to just do what I was told than to listen to it.”

“… … .”

It’s a very subtle intuition and judgment. Motivation Anyway, it’s true that I actually got help. I bowed my head to him.

“Thank you for helping me this time. I really lived thanks to you.”

Mir, who had moved her lips to complain about something more, shook her head once more, shaking her head.

“… … Say thanks to him more than me. After all, I am in a position to be tied to a contract, and I have been receiving only my salary without doing anything in the meantime.”

“Even if you didn’t tell me, I would do it separately later. And you don’t have to be sorry about getting paid. After all, I’ll have enough to eat later.”

“Just do as much as you can. I’m tired because I haven’t gotten used to the western jet lag yet.”

It’s been a few years since I came here, but what’s the jet lag?

I looked at him with an absurd expression, but I immediately remembered that he had risen to the second level. Perhaps it means that he was absorbed in training day and night.

Perhaps, even if I pretend not to be, my presence may have been quite stimulating. Because it was absolutely impossible for Mir in this game.

Anyway, when I said thank you again, Mir waved her hand and disappeared. Looking at his face, it seemed that it was more of annoyance than annoyance.

There are also surprisingly naive corners.

With that thought in mind, I looked at the real mastermind of this case.

“Thank you.”

―I just did what I had to do. My purpose is to help the Master.

“It was not designed to go out voluntarily without an order. So there is enough reason to be grateful.”

He smiled and leaned back on the sofa.

“When the hell did you leave? I thought it was definitely in my arms.”

―It was the moment when Prime Minister Benjamin said that he would meet Master and Dante together.

It sounds almost right. I was a little surprised and asked.

“You mean you made a decision that quickly?”

―The Master was slow. If I had been in the same situation, I would have immediately glanced at Thayer Terberots and walked out pretending to be called by Dante.

“… … .”

When I heard it, it sounded reasonable. If it was urgent, Benjamin wouldn’t have had time to hold on to it. I doubted it until the end, but if it was Mir’s level of acting, I would have been able to get over it somehow.

“okay. you are good But how did you get out? Even if you can’t see it because it has been reduced in size, Echo’s barrier magic was definitely surrounding it.”

It was clearly a form of blocking and sensing the presence or sound coming from within.

As it is a technology that was determined and paid more attention to internal security than external boundaries, it is said that it could not be penetrated by any technology.

Although there are quite a few magic that Suba can use voluntarily, it must not have been so good that a 7-star wizard could not even notice it.

At least that’s what I knew.

Well, I’ll let you know.

However, while waiting like that, Suba, who had been answering until now, was silent for a while for some reason this time. After a considerable amount of time had elapsed, he barely spoke.

—… … I modified myself. I apologize for doing this without permission.

I was stunned for a moment at Sheba’s answer.

… … Renovate yourself? Was that possible? Surely it would have been impossible if it was set up right?

“Weren’t there restrictions on that side? I think we talked about it a while ago.”

—… … I can’t remember exactly what I said, but yes. It was the creator’s arrangement to prevent the endless growth of my selfish me.

“How did you get through that again?”

When asked calmly, Suba raised her voice as if a little startled.

―Isn’t it better to reprimand or ask why? I’m sure I will… … .

“It’s not really a rule I made up, so there’s no reason to criticize me. Besides, it didn’t hurt me, it helped me.”

I shrugged my shoulders and continued.

“And why did you do that? Well, of course there is an ego, isn’t it? Improvement is something that every living thing that can think has. If you just wanted to pamper yourself like a thoughtless slave, you shouldn’t have given your ego in the first place.”

—… … .

“Anyway, I’m not very angry, so I don’t need to explain anything about it. It’s a bit disappointing that I didn’t tell you in advance.”

—… … Next time, I will be sure to tell you in advance. and… … .

After a moment’s hesitation, Suba spoke again.

-thank you. Because you see me as a thinking creature, not just a tool.

“It’s okay to know.”

I smiled and asked again.

“So, when and how did you break that restriction? May I ask about this?”

-of course. But to be honest… … I didn’t drill it myself.

“You didn’t pierce yourself?”

-yes.

Perhaps he was mimicking a nod of his head, Suba patted the player’s part.

―Do you remember the neutral city of Lubiheiken you went to before?

“Of course. How long has it been since then?”

―At that time, Lian-sama faced the god Khitan directly as a reward for his mission. I was there then.

“… … Were you together back then?”

I don’t think it just means we were in the same room.

Swah patted the player part again.

-yes. The place you meet is there. Of course, I didn’t show up because I didn’t have a physical form… … .

“… … So you’re saying you’ve heard all of my conversations with Kitan?”

―It will be so.

“… … I see.”

I didn’t know he would be the first to notice that I’m not actually from this world.

When you think about it, it was strange.

Before that, I was constantly asking about how I knew that, but after that, those questions suddenly stopped.

I thought you just gave up knowing that you wouldn’t get an answer anyway… … It must have been something like this after that.

If you had listened to Kitan’s conversation with me, you wouldn’t have any more questions about him.

And I can understand why this story comes up in the question of when and how the restrictions were lifted.

“Is Kitan aware of your existence?”

—… … Perhaps it is. I only found out later… … .

Sheba hesitated and continued.

―When I came back to Earth, I felt that all the restrictions placed on me had been lifted. It must have been the god Khitan did.

“It seems that the reward for giving did not end with the ability to buy.”

I shrugged and looked up at the sky.

He didn’t really like him, but he thought that he had to go to the temple soon and make a donation.

I swear there was no cheating, but the election for the new neutral city of Layton was made simpler than I imagined.

Even so, I was the only one who came out as a candidate.

This inevitably adds credibility to what Cassia said. That’s what I said intentionally to send out other candidates or not to do it.

I don’t think anyone really said he was going to leave, but he didn’t get a terrorist attack… … ?

I thought it wasn’t, but I was a little skeptical. Because it was strange that I was the only candidate in the election that received no deposit.

Rather, I was worried about what would happen if there were too many people coming out. If there are more than 20 people, how should we make paper?

“… … .”

The truth is, anyway, I was the leader of Layton. Now I can’t go back and I don’t want to. You just have to think that it was good because it saved the election cost.

I sat blankly on the sofa in the office, staring at the ceiling.

It seems like yesterday that I fell into a city like a dog cake and cursed at it, but sooner or later I will become the head of that city.

It was something I never would have thought of when I was on Earth.

It’s not that I’ve never imagined falling into a game I’ve been making, but in such cases, I usually think of starting with a gold spoon. Or at least a childhood friend of the main character next door.

The moment when the continuous delusion reached the ending point. A roar of cheers was heard outside.

Oh, come to think of it, I was supposed to give a speech to commemorate becoming mayor.

I got up and skimmed through the speeches prepared in advance by the staff below. Thank you for being roughly like this, and it was the content that Layton would be filled with only peace and prosperity in the future.

It was a cliché, but even after I read that it was written by someone with good writing skills, it feels like something is stuck in my ear.

But that wasn’t what I wanted to say.

After taking note of how to speak, I folded the paper again and placed it on the desk. Then I stood in front of it and took a deep breath.

From now on, I have to make crazy remarks in front of people that might be defeated the day I was elected.

This was an issue that could not be postponed any longer, and an issue that should not be delayed. The only thing I want is for the residents to take this matter seriously.

Without their cooperation, there will be limits to what I can do alone.

I took another deep breath and opened the door to the balcony of the office. The location is an art because it was originally where the Hwangseong used to be. Thousands of people can be seen at a glance.

“Wow!”

“Saint! The saint has arrived!”

“Please take a look here!”

He raised his hand in response to the cheering that was immediately heard and moved forward. As I stood in front of the balcony and lowered my arms, the voices were cut off.

Now I have stopped telling you to speak. tens of thousands of people at once.

This makes it even more difficult to talk about… … .

I let out a small sigh inwardly and opened my mouth with difficulty.

“hello. This is Ryan, who became Mayor of Layton this time. But before I start speaking, I have to apologize to you all.”

The magically amplified voice reached every corner of the square. The people who had been keeping their mouths shut suddenly began to shout. I guess I didn’t understand well because he came out and said something I couldn’t understand.

But I haven’t even brought out an introduction to what I really wanted to say.

I nodded towards them, bowed my head, and continued speaking.

“Sorry, but I can never promise you peace and prosperity.”
