Chapter 345.2. Friction Is Important, Isn’t It?

-Miu’s POV-
Yamiyo and Tamamo started getting angry, but Seina remained silent. Mii-chan also needed to pretend to be angry here… as expected.
There was one unexpected thing. Masatoshi sought understanding from Yamiyo. In other words, he believed that Yamiyo would believe this story.
In short, he misunderstood Yamiyo as a reincarnated person. Considering Yamiyo’s actions so far, it wouldn’t be unreasonable for him to realize that she’s not a reincarnated person, but when did the misunderstanding start… probably from our first meeting.
What should I do? I probably don’t need to provide an answer. The unpleasant feeling doesn’t go away. Masatoshi’s composition is already different from that of a human. Moreover, it’s completely different from before. It’s not sludge-colored.
If System-san also thought this was unexpected, a message arrived.
-Subevent: Let’s kill Aguni Masatoshi-
If it’s System-san, it would come up with such an idea. It probably means it’s okay to kill him here. It might be thinking of changing him into a soul-only existence and leaving him alone.
The soul alone should be necessary for both the enemies and I as a key. However, an unexpected element entered the picture.
The dazzling golden threads, or the golden chains, give an unpleasant premonition.
[No, no, it’s no good. Thought manipulation won’t work anymore.]
But, as a god, necessary actions are also incorrect as a human. The human body is a lump of flesh, not a temporary vessel.
[We have a situation that we didn’t observe from the content of the observation. The result becomes unpredictable.]
[Even if you claim to uphold “freedom”, trying to manipulate the story to go your way is no different from using the “threads of fate”. I’ve told you that before.]
If it doesn’t go according to the story, we might not reach a happy ending. We might lose. There’s a lot of anxiety.
In games, players can play until they win. But since this is reality, it can’t be helped.
The one who sleeps in the depths of the abyss of consciousness answers in System-san’s place.
[It’s okay. Trust my magnum opus. Didn’t I tell you to leave it to me when we first met? Miu’s game specifications are strong. Even if you regain pain and cease to be a player, the power of martial arts and magic will never disappear. We can win.]
[Canceled the sub-event.]
[Thank you!]
While I was immersed in conversation with System-san, Sena cleared her throat and spoke.
Oh dear, I need to focus on the conversation with everyone!
“Yamiyo-san… what Masatoshi-san is saying is true. He isn’t crazy, nor is he being mentally manipulated. He might have a dreamy head, but it’s the truth.”
“…Is there really an evil demon called a Demon God?”
“Yes. A Demon God that exists to destroy the world. It’s a terrifying enemy that literally destroys the world. It’s undeniable that Nidhogg is trying to revive it.”
Sena spoke with a serious expression, and Yamiyo and Tamamo also became serious, glancing briefly at Mii-chan. They seemed somewhat skeptical, unsure if Masatoshi’s story was true.
Mii-chan remained silent, and they were probably curious about what judgment she would make.
“Sena-san knows about it! Yes, that’s right, there’s a Demon God in this world!”
Masatoshi rejoiced, thinking Seina-san agreed with him. Well, Sena must have fought many times.
“Se-chan also knows. Moreover, if she has a different source of information than Masatoshi-kun, I think that information is highly accurate. But, Mii-chan isn’t aligned with Nidhogg and isn’t aiming for the Emperor’s throne. She became a ‘Queen’ though!”
“‘Queen’? Mii-sama became a ‘Queen’?”
“Yes, I became the chairman of the Kanto Region Neighborhood Association! I plan to govern Sim City from now on.”
She laughed mischievously, covering her mouth with her hand. Mii-chan is happy after withdrawing from national politics. Being a minister is troublesome, but she felt like she might get pushed into it if she didn’t.
“Congratulations! You did it!”
“Em-chan has finally become a ‘Queen’. Congratulations~”
“Thank you both. So, that’s why I don’t seek the Emperor’s throne.”
Since Yamiyo and Tamamo were clapping with smiles, Mii-chan, with a shy smile, told Victory.
“No… I was also wondering because you the gray-haired girl didn’t seem like a girl aiming for the Emperor. I was planning to discuss it, thinking it might be Shin’s misunderstanding. Is it true?”
“Let’s keep a diary from now on, Masatoshi-san. Write down everything that happens in a day. I’m looking forward to the exchange diary with my beloved Masatoshi-san.”
“Oh~ really? Okay, let’s start from today.”
Masatoshi, with a head full of flowers, laughed with a playful smile at Sena’s words. He’s really positive, and Mii-chan can’t help but admire him.
“Well, let’s hear from Shin-kun. Is he being held by the warriors?”
I can’t believe it, but is there any chance that Shin, who is planning to escape, has killed the mob warriors?
Since I stopped following System-san’s story, basic information like that is less likely to come.
“We’re about to arrive at the site, young lady.”
In response to Nimue’s words, I opened the window and looked outside. I saw an old two-story wooden apartment building.
And the samurai group was gathered, talking to someone. … Is that Shin? Next to him is a poorly dressed middle-aged woman.
“Oh, there’s Shin. I think we can resolve it peacefully.”
Masatoshi casually said, but he still believes that Shin is the hero of justice.
Oh well. Let’s hear the story.
