Peace? The final goal of the beings who created the biherusha is to exploit the resources of this planet. There is no consideration for life forms.
What?
I understand. <
< resisted them as much as possible and changed them into gentle instructions.
"If that's true, it's a very serious matter.
I have no way to prove it, but you'll just have to take my word for it.
Jin pondered.
In any case, he was going to investigate the mega-float under the ice in the Antarctic Ocean.
< tells us more.
The was supposed to be used for the maintenance of this world. It seems to have been converted into a weapon.
"That's not good. ......"
That's why I want to take it back.
It's a bad idea to destroy it, isn't it?
It would be bad to destroy it, wouldn't it? It would take a hundred years to build a base that big. But I'm not asking you to take it back completely intact.
"I don't have a choice."
But Jin thinks inwardly that if it breaks, he can just fix it.
The priority is to avoid human or golem damage.
"Okay. I'll help you as much as I can."
Thank you.
I'm afraid you're not much help when it comes to attacks.
I don't deny it. The masters who built this place didn't like conflict... or at least they weren't very good at it.
"I see. ......"
< were a race that did not like to engage in such rough and tumble activities, so he was able to nod his head in agreement with this information.
After that, Jin's alter ego (doppelganger) had various conversations with the <>.
In the process, more and more things came to light.
The <> had several factions, or groups that differed in their principles and claims.
The Residualists were divided into and , the Migrants into and , the Radicals into and , and the Moderates into , and <>. The moderate faction was divided into the , the and the <.
"So many different factions."
Jin wondered if they were that individualistic.
Of course, all the immigrants participated in creating a livable environment, such as adjusting the gravity.
That's true, Jin thought. First of all, it is urgent to make the planet habitable, so we can't afford to be fighting among the factions.
"To sum it up, it was the that came to Arus, and it was the of the that crossed paths with the natives, wasn't it?"
"That's pretty much what I'm thinking.
And the moderates became the ancestors of the present human race?
That's right.
"......Magic......No, the northern ...... continent of Gondor was inhabited by the independent faction, and the continent of Laurent was inhabited by the fusion and coexistence faction? Is that right?"
That's right.
"The coexistence group lives west of the Harihari Desert, and the fusion group lives east.
That's almost right.
This would explain why the residents of the current demon territory have stronger blood of the origin.
"What happened to the <>?"
The pioneers used to live here.
"Oh, I see."
They chose Onogoro Island as the base for their settlement.
The people who lived here were settlers, weren't they?
That's right. Unfortunately, none of them live here anymore.
Jin imagined that it must have been difficult to sustain the species in terms of the number of people, even more so than in terms of the blood.
"...... So what happened to the invaders?"
They moved to another continent in the northern hemisphere. I don't know what happened after that, but considering there were only 13 of them, I think they perished.
"Thirteen?
Jin shouts in surprise. He had expected that there would be fewer, but the number was much smaller than he had expected.
"...... So the radicals who are invading the <> have nothing to do with it?
I heard you and I really want to confirm this point.
It has nothing to do with them. I can assure you of that.
"I see. Good."
There are some other things we have learned about the .
< was a race that did not keep many records, and not much is known about their past.
<>.
The most shocking thing was that the <> had selected candidate sites other than here in Arus.
The second planet Zipert and the fourth planet Tetrodos.
This numbering is based on the assumption that both Hale and Ars are called the third planet.
At this point, Jin decided to ask a question that occurred to him.
"By the way, I heard once that you came from Hale to Ars in a few months or years.
Yeah? ...... is that what is being said? ...... maybe it was misinformed that it took the <> many round trips to get everyone to emigrate?
"Oh, that's what you mean."
Jin agreed that it was certainly possible that he meant that the entire migration was long.
I honestly appreciate getting answers to questions like these, which are somewhat lower on my priority list because I don't have to know them by necessity.
"Thank you. It was helpful."
Jin concluded his question with these words.
* * * * "Reiko," he said.
Reiko, thank you.
Jin thanked Reiko for her contribution.
"No, I am happy to be of help to your father.
"I was licking the control device."
"No, thanks to the new shield case your father sent me, nothing happened to me.
"Still. I'm sorry, Reiko.
No, I understand. I know that your father cares about me and that he relies on me as an asset. That is why it is my pleasure to be of service to you. Please make me stronger and stronger. And please help me more and more.
Jin hugged Reiko.
"Thank you, Reiko."
* * * *
Marikka was the one who held the key to the finishing touches of this .
Oh! <
"Ha-ha-ha."
From now on, all of Onogoro Island will be under Marikka's command.
I'm counting on you.
And things calmed down on November 12.
Jin obtained permission through Marikka to set up a warp gate at the ground level of Onogoro Island.
This will make it easier to come and go.
"......The next step is to retake the <>."
Jin was on the shore of Onogoro Island, staring out to sea, the wind blowing in his face.
The sky was endlessly blue and the sea stretched far out.
