Chapter 225

[12th Round] My Aqua

“You’re not permitted to go through here.”

“Move. I need to see the emperor.”

The young man, who looked like he was only skin and bones at this point, argued with the knights.

Yet despite their gorilla-like bodies, they couldn’t stop him.

They couldn’t help it. Mermaids accompanied the guy, putting enormous pressure on the knights.

“Pass, my darling.”

“Stand back, you damn males!”

“Return as soon as you can so we can get down to business again, my love.”

“What position are we going to try today? Hoo hoo!”

They were dressed in typical dresses of their race, each having a Princess job, level 999+, and one Z-rank skill.

Each was at Aqua’s level.

The best of the best.

These mermaids, like ardent fans, became attached to the skeleton-like individual.

That was the first time I saw mermaids support a man in such a way. Despite his appearance, I recognized him.

I rarely saw blue hair, after all.

“Sage, you’ve changed a lot.”

He went from being a boy to a man.

He who knew nothing about females had now become an adult!

But I didn’t think that he would change, not only from a moral point of view but also from a physical one. His body and skills were different.

“Hero, it’s not only my appearance.”

“Oh, I see. Your manner of speech also did.”

It was as if he became a completely different person.

▷ Race: Human of Infinity

▷ Level: 999+

▷ Job: Enlightened (Lust → Magic Power ↑)

▷ Skills: Magic Power ZZ, Male Energy Z, Magic MAX, Witchcraft MAX, Dark Energy MAX…

▷ Status: Sage, Golem, Exhaustion, Anemia

Previously, the more chaste he was, the higher his magical power was, but now the power of his magic was proportional to lust.

In the skills appeared “Male Energy,” which wasn’t there before. What pissed me off the most was that for as long as there was a woman next to him, he would never lose.

Not to mention the “Golem” in his status…

But what caught my eyes the most was his race.

The Man of Infinity.

Previously, his race was just “Human.” He got an upgrade.

▷ Type: Race

▷ Name: Human of Infinity

▷ Rank: Legendary

▷ Legendary 1: Sees the distant future of the world.

▷ Legendary 2: Sees a distant truth.

▷ Feature 1: Increases the infinity effect.

▷ Feature 2: Decreases the stamina effect.

▷ Feature 3: Does not faint.

▷ Race 1: Incredible fertility.

possibilities.

‘Sees the world and the truth of the distant future?’

It wasn’t yet clear what that meant.

But I’d find out soon.

Sage, from whom the mermaids made a man, squinted at me.

“Only I see what ending awaits this world!”

Because of such a statement, I was speechless for a moment, but then I laughed hysterically.

“Sage, forgive me, but can you tell me about it as well?”

“All this is complete nonsense! You think the world will be at peace if he gets rid of the Demon Lord! You know nothing! You are just the protagonist of the production, which was created at the behest of God! The truth is that…”

“So that’s what has accumulated in you.”

“…”

“I roughly understand what you’ve learned, but in this world, it is sometimes better not to know something. Look at yourself. You’re not even wearing a facade now.”

“This world is fake.”

I didn’t think it was.

“Apologize to those who were born in this world. Maybe they were born in incubators, but their lives are true.”

I also didn’t like Fantasy, where there were no flush toilets and littered with savages.

But I wasn’t a coward who couldn’t tell the real world from a fake one, just like my wife, who created this world.

“It seems that you have regained your memories,” Ssosia said, looking at the Sage. Although I didn’t call her, she still appeared.

“God-Creator of Fantasy! How did you get here?!” Sage shouted, his eyes widening in surprise.

I turned to my wife.

“God-Creator of Fantasy?”

“I created this system. That name is a hastily invented pseudonym. It’s not a story worth talking about here and now, is it?”

She’s right.

Knight A, Knight B, Aristocrat B, Servant H, sea mermaids…

There were many local savages here.

So I flicked my finger lightly.

As soon as I did, something clicked in the savages’ heads, causing them to pass out and fall to the floor.

But there was no need for them to kiss the floor.

The Soul Spirit King immediately took possession of the minds of the unconscious inhabitants.

He cleared their memories a little and sent them home as if nothing had happened here.

“Beloved, I’ll come back tomorrow.”

“Hmm? Is it time to go home now?”

“Your Majesty! I have to go.”

Even for a spirit king, it was difficult to control several sea mermaids that had Z-rank skills.

Everything turned out okay only since the mermaids lost consciousness, being defenseless.

They were also pretty stupid.

“There shouldn’t be any problems now, right?”

“We could’ve just gone to another place.”

“That’s too trivial.”

“If I could control the system again, I would’ve adjusted the settings so that they wouldn’t choose minors who have no experience in life. There was no need to listen to my aunt, who spoke about the need to entrust the future to the young…”

Beginning to self-flagellate, Ssosia put her head on my shoulder.

I immediately pushed her away.

“My shoulder’s cramping up. Get your head off.”

“You can’t read the atmosphere at all, you brute! You can’t even lend a shoulder to your woman?”

“I’m having an important conversation with a friend who was a virgin before. The problem here is you’re so dumb.”

“You… we’ll talk about this later.”

“Yes, yes, definitely.”

I didn’t know what’s so funny, but the First Spirit continued to hold on to her stomach and make noises.

Was she having fun watching the Second Demon and the Hero fight?

Even Sage intervened.

“God-Creator and Hero, I have been waiting for too long. Can we get down to business?”

“Speak.”

“This is what we are waiting for.”

The Sage, pressing his temples, was silent for a while. Out of nowhere, he spoke.

“Tell me how not to go crazy, God-Creator.”

***

Computers were different from living beings.

This chapter is scrapped from readlightnovel.org

Dual-core processor, quad-core processor…

A computer could perform several tasks or calculations at once.

Of course, some prodigies and geniuses could also perform several actions at the same time. There were some, for example, who could work with both their left and right hands.

But what if they were tasked to do a thousand things at the same time?

Cleaning, washing, studying, auditioning, intercourse, fighting…

For a supercomputer, that wouldn’t be a problem.

But for humans?

“It seems that you received some kind of transcendental knowledge that allowed you to break through the limitations of the system and regain your memory… I think your seal has to be activated again.”

“I’m afraid that’s impossible,” Sage replied coolly to Ssosia’s words.

At this time, I watched the landscape outside the window.

What cloudy weather…

“Let’s go through everything in order. The current heroes are the fourth generation of heroes raised to rid themselves of the fallen First Hero. You are the second generation. However, your real soul disappeared with a wave of the Demon Lord’s hand. Now, you are nothing but the imprint of the original, based on a personal matter.”

“Disappeared?”

“Yes, it disappeared. If my assumptions are correct, then the memories of your school years when you were a candidate for the Second Generation Hero and the memories of the time you worked as a Sage of the Fourth Generation are mixed. However, you most likely don’t remember anything about traveling outside the world of Fantasy. You don’t even remember who the First Hero is, do you?”

“…”

The Sage’s expression became darker than the clouds outside.

It seemed that it would rain soon.

“In general, if you moved away from women and plunged into magic, you wouldn’t have been pushed aside by the First Hero. And he wouldn’t have lost his girlfriend.”

“Was that girl a mermaid?”

“I will only say this. The First Hero didn’t take your girlfriend away from you. She died with you at the hands of the Demon Lord.”

“…”

The atmosphere was as gloomy as the sky.

At such moments, there was nothing better than a song!

“Hey! Aqua. Sing a funny song.”

I called the mermaid watching the battle between Chris and Green Cake in the imperial garden.

But a strange reaction followed.

“You bastard! Who do you think you’re ordering to sing?”

“Oh?”

Sage got angry for some reason. He pierced me with a look that said he would haunt my nightmares.

What’s with him?

“Because Sir Hero is my man~ Because he’s my man~”

Aqua, as if nothing happened, began to sing.

“Hero, Aqua, Hero, Aqua, Hero, Aqua!”

Sage repeated the same words, then his eyes turned red, and his whole body was engulfed in blue flame-like energy.

My response was quick.

Bam!

I stabbed between his sixth and seventh cervical vertebrae.

The invisible protective shell that enveloped his body was immediately pierced.

I didn’t behave like spirits who would stomp their feet and lament, “What to do? What to do?”

I acted immediately and without holding back.

If I had to do something, then I would do it properly. That way, I wouldn’t regret anything later on.

But now, my intuition told me that Sage didn’t die.

If this was the Sage I knew, then his head should have already been separated from his body. He wouldn’t have flown away so easily.

“Drug Hero, it will take a lot of money to repair the imperial palace.”

“I know.”

I walked through the holes in the wall that looked like a tunnel that the fleeing Sage had made.

I didn’t have the prejudice that wizards were physically weak, but I couldn’t ignore the fact that he remained fine after an actual attack from me.

And with such skills, it was impossible …

“This system of cultivation was created with the help of my father’s power, which I took away. The third and fourth generations started from the bottom and slowly gained strength. However, the first and second generations were different. Only capable geniuses were chosen to be a part of them. If his memory has returned to him, then you can no longer look at him as the Sage you knew.” Ssosia explained the situation, seemingly sensing my confusion.

“In other words, do they have more strength than just skills?”

“Exactly.”

The sage broke through the thick wall of the imperial palace in the Second Mollanpolis, located on the Northern Continent.

However, as expected, he didn’t die. Rather, he was still perfectly fine.

“I will never forgive you for taking away my love, Hero!”

He didn’t seem to be himself.

He mistook me for my senior.

“You’re slandering an innocent person, you idiot!”

“You touched Aqua, so you’re not as innocent as you claim yourself to be.”

I frowned at Ssosia’s reproach.

There was no time to waste on idle chatter. Giving the wizard time was dangerous.

He wasn’t just any mage, either. He was the most powerful wizard in the world of Fantasy.

“I will never forgive the sinner who fell in love with you. To obliterate him, I ask you to appear in this world, My Aqua!”

Gu-goo-gu…

A war golem was summoned.

It looked like the androids that invaded Earth but also a mermaid I knew.

Of course, I had to retaliate.

“Heed my call, Captain Fantasy! Crush them with your cuteness!”

At that moment, Ssosia screamed in horror for some reason.
