" Yuni ... why are you lazing around ? " Mir asked while Damo brought a lot of dishes to Yuni " I'm changing the program slowly " " More like you're just being lazy " Yuni started eating some steaks that Damo had prepared .
" I'm wondering if you wanna have another kid , this one specifically " Yuni said , casting a spell for the adjustment to stop her " This one ? " Yuni nodded and Mir checked " Now that you mention it , it does feel like a system to me . It's growing because it's trying to stop you with your own power "
" Then , as soon as I get an account to take my place , you can start adopting this cute little system " Mir goes through the many accounts of the species that were under the civilization of the system's origin to see how they take care of a child that isn't fully developed .
" Then I'd want to feed them something , maybe you can loosen Monopoly's grip after you get off " " I can do it now " Yuni said and Mir seems to want to disagree with what Yuni's .
" It weakens you " " People who stay weak can build more character by not letting power corrupt them " Mir wondered if that was one of the reasons why Yuni makes more accounts " But do you have to keep building character ? "
Mir asked and then remembers that Yuni has the talent of many " You also have the talent of more than a single person , so it's weird that you are so resistant to power gained " Mir said and Yuni thinks about her talent , recalling something .
" I guess it's because I love the worlds out there , everyone has such deep culture and history . The people are great and the land always bountiful , I don't really like the barren lands because part of my origin was from that place , so I always try to fix it , which I gave that task to Naul "
Mir wonders if Yuni dumped that task to Naul by saying it was unwanted real estate that has value that can be acquired if someone were to attend to it " You do need a desert to make a rainforest , so I sometimes gave him homework to see if he could change that "
" Did he do it ? " " Not sure , I gave him even more homework , so he might have too much work . But it's a work in progress , he was able to manage people the best compared to his other self-serving siblings "
" Back in my birthplace , Self-serving is something that's looked down upon " Mir said and showed a gallery of greedy characters trickign the masses to gain wealth and fame , while Yuni said .
" I was also thinking about what you said about leaving a part of me in each account " " So what is it ? " " You don't know ? " Yuni was surprised because she had assumed that Mir had known all about the part .
" I know you leave a part , I just don't know what aspect , so what do you think it is ? " Yuni thinks of what she felt missing whenever she changed accounts and said " Hmm talent ? I do keep feeling like that part is missing " Mir was disappointed hearing it and checked the memories and looked into the potion that Yuni stole .
" It could be that , but I think it's a good thing for that to happen " Yuni tilted her head in confusion " Ahem , so the thing about your talent is that it is composed of many other talents with the potion being the source "
" Then wouldn't I have lost most of it to my kids ? " " You did , but not all of it , let's just say , while you were switching accounts , you were not just leaving the talent from that potion , but your growing talent "
Yuni thinks of her more recent accounts " I'll never know if that is the case " " not your fault , I'm just basing that theory off of your previous experience with amnesia " " But how did you think that my stolen talent went away first ? " " Because when you had Amnesia , it took the memories of Grasil's story first "
Yuni suddenly remembered that she got Grasil's story through Monopoly by outshining him as the protagonist " Does that also include the storybooks from that place " Mir knew exactly what she was referring to " Just because I'm a system who can tell what someone is vaguely thinking of doesn't mean you should keep exploiting it "
" So , yes or no ? " although annoyed that Yuni was abusing their ability to sense thoughts Mir answered " Yes , Amnesia took the memories of those storybooks too . You know the way you passed this challenge was by gathering as many memories as you could so that yours don't get taken away . But clearly you didn't take that hint " Yuni shrugged her shoulders and said " Sorry , I forgot "
Mir flicked Yuni's head in annoyance " How about we talk about the other issues , like what if Ordo gets memories of the past playthroughs ? " Yuni thinks of the broken glass that she saw around Mir " It'll be fine , if Ordo did , Welt would have noticed it . But if they do know , I'm just curious why they continue to do it "
Mir thought back to the memories that Naul brought back " Yeah it would be weird , especially in that part when Ordo was mad about losing all their strength " ' Ordo does seem very greedy in that playthrough , not sure what I know of them in this playthrough though '
Yuni plays with a bone and uses a crown to turn it into a flat blade without a handle " Say Mir , do you remember the other playthroughs ? " " You mean the other timelines when Welt failed and had to hit the restart button ? " Yuni nodded and Mir checked .
" I think I do , but it's completely unfamiliar to me . These memories are things I would do , but I never thought of because I never really found myself in some of these situations . And if some are similar , I wouldn't be able to notice because they blend well with my own memories . "
" How do you get those memories though ? " " It seems like you are getting the hang of that reading mind thing " Yuni smiled , thinking about Ceil getting mad because there were some details that never made it to her lore gatherers .
" I need it to keep my kid from finding out my private life , you know it's weird to have lore gatherers around me recording my own life . I always thought that to be Rein's idea never thought it would be my more innocent child doing it "
Mir was stunned to learn that Yuni calls her child innocent , as if it was rare " Your kids are weird " " Our you mean " ' Speaking of the kids , what are they doing right now ? '
...
The kids , excluding Zaun , were all working on programs and Welt was very glad to see all the progress they had been making . But they also heard complaints " Mom could've been the one doing this " Ceil muttered as Rein was the same too .
Naul was diligently working on the relations between the many worlds . Because of the trades and circulation of resources that he could watch grow over time " I can't believe you have been getting one world everyday starting that day " Naul told Welt ' That day was the first day I had after I started restarting our world '
Ceil could feel that there was some backstory that she was unaware of and then suggested to Welt an offer " I will diligently do this if you tell me how you got a restart button " Welt thinks of the figure that they encountered , remembering what they said about their world and the one beside it , which was Mir's world .
" Fine , if you are as good as those memories advertise , then you can know . I trust you not to reveal this information " Ceil nodded her head instantly since she doesn't really care for answering as much as she cares when it comes to asking others .
Welt took her to where Zaun trains and said " These hourglasses are part of the restart button " " That much I figured " " But there's a cost or debt I have to pay for each use and the deal they gave me was . One world's memory for each restart , but I had to use it so many times because it was hard to get rid of Ordo . "
" What's the identity of the giver of this button ? " Ceil asked and Welt said " I don't know , they just have a power related to turning time and storing the memories lost in an hourglass which is what I'm using "
Welt paused a bit, worrying about the person they got the restart button from " I've used it one too many times , yet for some reason they haven't return to collect the debt . I have no idea how powerful they are , but the more I use it , the more I am terrified of what will happen to me after that . But right now I don't have the luxury . "
Welt sensed Ceil's disappointment and took her lore gatherer to Yuni and said " You're probably disappointed , so to compensate , I restored your lore gatherer " Ceil was excited to learn more about her mother's story .
As annoyingly , the story came out with her mother's interference , she couldn't help but read it anyway because it would stay in her mind for too long if she didn't finish it .
She got ultimately pissed after reading till the end of the chapter " AHHHHHHHH " she screamed as her halo's burned from her wrath , inducing the powers to reflect her emotions " THIS IS JUST LIKE AN AUTHOR WHO PROVIDES EXPLANATION THROUGH DIALOGUE AFTER SOMETHING UNEXPLAINABLE HAPPENS "
She took a deep breath , so her account doesn't die of suffocation " IT'S ALMOST LIKE THE AUTHOR FORGOT SOME DETAILS AND DECIDED TO PATCH IT UP LATER " She continues to berate the book like it was a novel that her mother didn't tamper with .
She said that the author was terrible at remembering characters , mentioning how Yuni just took Fazor in on a whim and how the sudden interference from other characters made the storyline wonky .
' At least it's realistic to disappoint me with those stupid turns " Ceil calmed herself " Okay , I'll start helping more seriously " Ceil said and Welt took her back while they wondered what Ordo was doing as they came into the control room with the three children present .
" You bought more of them ? " Ordo asked , looking at the three managing the system trades " Yes , they are doing such a great job in optimizing everything . I'm sure I'll be able to keep rewarding you " those words that Welt said didn't have any emotions behind them at all , but for appearance's sake , they swallowed and acted like it had some.
" Really ? " Ordo said with much affection , but Welt couldn't be bothered to collect their anticipation for use " Yeah "
...
" A drug addict is what Ordo is " Yuni said , eating another new dish that Damo cooked from the memories that contained cooking instructions " Do you mean those things that give you a desirable effect instantly ? " " Yeah , a drug addict like them would rather have chemicals give them a high rather than search for it . It's efficient but only in the short term "
" I can sense some hate for those kinds of substances " " yeah cause it's cheating your way to happiness instead , it gives you an induced high, not like a happiness achieved through effort " Mir thinks of the food that Yuni has been eating " is eating not the same thing ? "
" It is , but the happiness is reasonable and hard to achieve , afterall the dishes made from it have a long history of development of the recipes . Moreover , you can be depressed and still not be happy after eating " Yuni said while thinking of other terms related to drugs .
" Copium was it ? " " Oh yeah , that's a term I learned from Rein . She always immerses herself in the present culture of many worlds and I picked the world from her time with me , which is a clever wordplay . Also, she is too interested in this social media because it makes people share their lives , which makes stalking easy for her . She revamps it every time she goes to another world , since Ceil forced her to follow some rules to restrict her a little "
" What a weird series of events to know about " Mir said , looking at the reference that pops up when Yuni talks " What are you doing with that screen by the way " " I'm using your memories to understand what you mean . It gives me visual aids and extra context on what you are talking about . It's similar to the educational models that the dead civilization used to teach its students "
" So you just have a built-in program that tells you what I know about ? " Mir nodded " It also tells me more of what you thought of it . And it's really helpful , although I am surprised by how little time you spend in some of these worlds with systems "
Yuni shrugged the topic " I just work really fast and sometimes cheat when the system is flawed . And sometimes I just did it because I was naturally talented " " Whatever the case is , this program I made is really useful , isn't it ? " Mir asked .
" Yeah , it saves a lot of explaining on my end and it feels like you get me better " Yuni admitted , wondering if Rein had used something similar to understand some people so she could easily mingle among them .
" Looks like your kids have a practical use for this social media that you talked about " Mir said and Yuni remembered " I remember she used it to smooth negotiations and talks . Many people thought she was charismatic , but she has in-depth data on every person she encounters . "
" I fear she might do the same for me " " That might be possible , but she doesn't record data about me maybe cause I'm her mother . Although I think it's because she doesn't want to ruin our relationship or maybe she just thinks I'm hard to figure out , since I'm very talented and can think a lot . Moreover , I'm pretty old "
Mir looks at the criteria that Yuni figured would challenge Rein's program that gathers a target's emotional , social and psychological data " Age , Quality of experience , deviation from current database . That is a long list " " How many ? I never really counted since I never wrote it done ? "
Mir closed the window that listed the category fo the data that are collected " I don't want to figure it out either , if I learn how big it is I might be a little bit more afraid of that girl we have " " And the rest too , Naul has a criteria for where he wants to go and he also helps a lot with his other siblings since he has a hoarding habit of his "
" I checked your memories , but it doesn't look like you love hoarding things " " I do , I just don't show it . I love to think that I can keep drinking potions , but I was born and taken advantage of because of scarcity . So I tend to share a lot when I have a surplus , spending is a very fun activity "
Mir looks at the expenses that Yuni have everytime she wasn't out in another system raising an account displayed on the program " This is a lot , but most of them go to development " " Yeah , cause that means I get to have more "
" Looks like you put a little out for luxury " " Oh that's right , can you make it so that the kids can come in this structure I'm stuck in ? " Mir was confused by the sudden request " Why ? " " I'm a mom okay , before I could even enjoy having innocent kids , my kids grew up . So I just want to have fun with them , give them a hug or something "
Mir thinks of the serious attitudes that Naul and Rein had while they were at work " Okay , I'll try that . But don't make them grow up fast " Mir warned " Oh they will have a hard time , they're not like their older siblings "
...
" Naul , tell me about our siblings " Ceil said , knowing Naul is the only one from whom she can acquire this information from " I'm busy " Naul muted the sound that was coming from Ceil's enraged state and focused on the optimization of the rewards .
' Some of these rewards are too much for the players . If you want a strong player , you gotta make them work hard ' He found a program that makes adjustments and wonders about using it to make an update and drafted a suggestion .
He was excited to code it into the system and as Ceil had discovered , he knew that the worlds connected to Welt had gone through many resets , which explained why there were a lot of memories .
He recalls the regressors that exist and can't help but hate their existence ' No , don't waste your time thinking about them . Currently , I need to submit this proposal so that we can implement some changes to this matter . It's so ridiculous that they have to integrate so many worlds together , Even we still have some problems between worlds back home . '
He graded how quickly the worlds were being integrated into Welt and the progress of relations to ensure they do not cause a war between worlds ' It's horrible , it's like making a baby climb up the ranks and giving them power , but they can only reply in yes or no because they can't speak properly to give a more detailed order for change '
" Naul , I need an inventory for my negotiations " Rein said and Naul pointed out the inventory while thinking about the restart ' It would be really troublesome to have to start over ' Naul didn't like the idea of regressing because it meant doing the same thing again .
Going to another world to manage its problems was fine and all , since it was going to be different , so he doesn't get tired of doing the same thing , which gives his life a little bit of diversity . But he can't imagine having to do the same thing on the same world just because someone hit the restart button because they didn't achieve the result they want .
' It's like those mass-produced stories that Ceil kept warning me about , but it's definitely better than those fanfics that Rein got addicted to one time . There were just a few what-ifs that changed the plot ever so slightly , at least the stories I read had much newer and further development compared to that fan slop that Rein was addicted to '
Naul made a private chat quickly and told Rein about his plan "You know how this place will be reset right ?" Rein reads the message while she picks up some fabrics and some dyes "Yeah , what about it ?" "I don't want to reset the worlds , there is much I can do"
"You have to owe me a favor , you know" Rein was looking forward to all the new kinds of scenarios that could occur among some of her favorite stalked accounts "Oh , but you have something to lose too"
Rein was curious about what Naul meant as she packed the materials for her clothes "Like what ?" "Oh , I don't know , your profiling program ? Even if you record some of the profiles and use them , you can't be so sure that they will apply in a later playthrough right ? And don't you want further character development to better optimize your character sheet programs ?"
Rein recalled messing around with Grasil's memories to learn more about him since it was such a treasure to have to learn more about the prince who had dabbled with darker arts that elves aren't supposed to touch . But it slowly got repittive after a few changes between each memories .
"Fine" Naul was surprised that actually worked and didn't think much of why Rein accepted it "Then first we got to ask Welt why they do this . It sounds like a secret , so try not to speak with people around" "I'm not that stupid , I've known Welt earlier than you"
Naul knew this was a taunt , but still wanted to straight-up brawl with Rein , except that would be strange to suddenly want to fight . He wonders if he could convince Ceil , but she was busy and probably part of it with how much she gathers lore .
There was also the fact that she generally doesn't get herself involved unless it helps her preserve history or the like . But she hasn't had to deal with that for a while , since she has been using the programs he built for her in exchange for programs that record the history that he was looking for .
' It was a very useful program to gather evolutionary data and geology . But maybe I can ask her about it ? ' Ceil looks at the offer but quickly rejects it ' He's definitely asking me a favour in exchange for learning about our siblings . But I highly doubt he can convince me to put my all to it '
Ceil put it away and Zaun asked " What was that ? " Zaun asked , practicing some techniques he learned " It was Naul striking a deal with me , he was asking if I wanted to help him stop the regression "
" Are you not going to ? " " I'm having mixed feelings after looking around " Zaun didn't really feel like getting involved since there really wasn't anything . Rather , it might be best for him not get involved unless a really big enemy that Welt needs eliminated is gone .
' But that Ordo seems pretty strong , I can get why I need to train a lot to even stand a chance against them ' Zaun wondered if he should just head straight to Ordo because Yuni had the luxury to fight like it was her last , since she didn't have anyone worrying her .
But seeing his siblings he couldn't help but restrain himself , at best he wouldn't take on a fight he can't handle ' I really wish I was very far away so I don't have to worry about my family ' he imagined a looming threat that can't be avoided and looked forward to it so that at least he can have a taste of how Yuni grew by having no choice but to do so .
He gripped the handle of his origami blade , thinking of the thrill of the fight that he felt when watching Yuni surrounded by enemies and looked at the followers who were also growing in power just from watching , just like he was when he was very young .
" I will strike you all a deal "
...
In a massive grass plain , Zaun parried a follower who comprehended his sword technique , while one with a spear tried to defeat him ' They only trained , but they can effectively attack and efficiently use their strength without wasting movements '
He continues to defend against the followers attacking them as they attacked him as enemies just like how Yuni fought . Welt watched Zaun's training ' None of them are going for lethal attacks '
Welt knew that the followers were not going to risk losing their best fighter , whom they could learn from . And Welt could sense that Zaun wanted the thrill of the fight that Yuni had before she had kids .
They think of the memories they got from running the Delirium challenge on Yuni and took the original code of the talent penalty game ' This code is a bit amazing , allowing for the world to control the people to nurture talents '
They placed that code around the training area and watched as the intensity of the battle against Zaun rose ' This is a really nice code ' Welt could see how well the code was working as it pitted all of the followers against Zaun .
It raised each of their desire for strength much higher as they went for more fatal attacks ' So it magnifies the emotions of its targets . Competition does create strong individuals , but to think it could control it to this point '
Welt wondered if there were other codes that they could use from the memories they got from Zaun and the ones that Delirium obtained for them ' I should thank her , if ever . Maybe I should make something for her . This playthrough really feels like the one '
Welt smiled as they appeared and saw Ordo " You're back ? " " Yeah and look at all these treasures I found . I even negotiated with other worlds to bring to you " Ordo said and Welt looked at the papers that were signed by Ordo .
" Ordo , this is too much " Welt said with much worry " What ? " Welt couldn't believe that Ordo was going to give away so much just for so little " But I recalled we had a lot of them " ' Oh right , this was what Ordo always was '
" Whatever , don't contact these people , they are ... greedy and taking more than they can chew "69Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjF4B1Nusp
