Victoria’s hair was dyed purple, and all the scars on her body, as well as her scales and gills, were gone.

The only problem is that water is flowing in.

The water contains fragments of broken rocks.

Even if you could breathe underwater, it would be impossible to survive in there.

Because the debris from the building that the machine just destroyed and the trinkets that were washed up with it will be ground up like a blender in the water.

Even if the tsunami is only 1 meter high, cities along the coast will be completely torn apart.

Water is dangerous.

So, Daegon had this device made.

There’s a reason the architecture is shaped like a jagged coral. It’s not just to give it a sea feel. When it’s submerged, the water creates a whirlpool that sucks in debris and kills any creatures that might be there.

Since the purpose is to kill traitors, not enemies, we did it more thoroughly.

Of course, when it was distributed, it was said to be a device to corner the enemy and make them self-destruct in case of an emergency.

in short.

It’s hard to survive without being able to breathe underwater.

“The scales are gone… … .”

Victoria takes off her clothes halfway and runs her hands over the area where her ribs used to be, spreading her fingers to examine them more closely.

The water is up to the knees. The water pouring in is spinning in one direction. This creates a huge whirlpool inside the dome. This means the mixer is on.

It’s starting to get dangerous. If I get swept away by the current and fall to the ground, I’ll come out dead.

As I was watching with that thought in mind, Victoria checked her arms and legs a few times and then stretched her arms out in front of her with a puzzled expression.

And the water in front of me turned into a jelly-like liquid. No, not just the water in front of me, but all the water around me turned into a jelly-like liquid.

Outside the dome we’re in, water is constantly flowing in, but it all turns into jelly and piles up outside.

Come to think of it, there wasn’t a single person with superpowers in the second world.

No, there were too few people who made it into a harvester in the first place.

It’s not something that can be increased arbitrarily, but I plan to increase it a little more actively here.

Meanwhile, water also flowed down my body.

I thought it would be sticky, but surprisingly, it’s just like water inside. It’s smooth, but if you try to move it, it resists like water sprinkled with starch powder.

Woorurung

The device, which has been carefully and meticulously dismantling the surroundings from the outside in, has now moved on to the final stage.

It’s destroying this place where all the water gathers.

Rocks start falling from the ceiling, and the pillars around them start to completely collapse. But Victoria is stronger.

No debris could penetrate the water barrier that Victoria had created.

After some time has passed, all the surrounding buildings have collapsed.

“Ugh, ugh, ugh.”

Victoria survived.

But I exhaled heavily, as if I had just sprinted across the track. I bent down and ended up sitting on the muddy ground for a long time.

You must be incredibly tired.

Indeed, many of the superpowered people from the first world had a hard time after using their powers.

Those superpowers are their own powers. They don’t use me like the Heavenly Demon Sect. So it’s only natural that they get tired.

Rather, it’s strange that I used strength that a human being cannot exert, but this is all I got tired of.

“You… … .”

Victoria, who had recovered some of her strength, stood up and looked at me.

“Survived. Congratulations.”

“Kkiyaaak!”

Victoria screams in surprise.

That makes sense.

From Victoria’s perspective, more than half of the body is like minced meat. The only thing that’s left unharmed is the upper body that was inside the protective shell. Aside from that, not even a single fish bone remains.

“Are you alive?”

“It’s okay even if it hurts because it’s someone else’s body anyway.”

There is pain, but the cold is more terrible than tormenting yourself with these nerve signals.

“You said earlier that that body wasn’t originally yours.”

“Yes, that’s right. By the way, this isn’t the person who was supposed to get off this body.”

Victoria looks at me with a look of pity and wonder. Of course. In her eyes, I am dying right now.

“Aren’t you their master? I heard you’re called Dagon.”

“Yes. I am not Daegon.”

Dagon, Daegon, Dagon. There are many names, but they all refer to one.

She looked at herself a few times and then nodded.

“Yeah. If it were you, I would have completely changed into a Sahagin. Yeah. But are you okay? There’s a lot of blood coming out? ”

The lower half of the body is completely torn off, and there is a wide cut from the back to the front where the ribs are. However, this body is strong.

The outflow of blood and body fluids has already stopped, and the body’s systems have entered emergency regenerative mode to maintain life.

If you just eat well like this, you will regenerate.

“Yes. This body won’t die from something like this.”

Victoria nodded at me, then suddenly stopped. She stood motionless for quite a while, then let out a long sigh.

“I. I made a contract with you earlier. So, what happens next? If you are like a god, you must have something you want from me.”

aha.

I guess you have some time to think about the contract now?

But you don’t have to worry about that.

“I am not God. And people should live freely. I just need to bring you warmth when your end is over.”

And in the meantime, he takes the warmth of every living thing he kills. But he doesn’t say this. If he says that when he dies, he takes the warmth of others, but what if he doesn’t kill anyone?

“Freedom?”

He looked at me as if to say, “Am I telling some ridiculous lie?” But I nodded my big fish-like head.

It feels strangely strange not to have pupils, but it’s okay because there’s no problem right now.

“Yes.”

I have no intention of forcing myself on anyone. If I just leave them alone, they will naturally send me warmth, so there’s no reason to force them, right?

Victoria considered my words. Then, as if she had come to a conclusion, she looked at me and opened her mouth.

“What are you going to do next?”

He asks me what I’m going to do next.

I check Victoria’s memory in front of me.

It’s got a complicated past, but that’s the gist of it.

Victoria was really a student.

Of course, it’s not a school where royalty and nobility flaunt their differences in level like in my faded memories. There are places like that in the world, but Victoria doesn’t go there.

She was a student studying to become a modern alchemist by the standards of this world. She was a clockwork knight.

This world is at the forefront of civilization, where brass clockwork and magical devices are intertwined. It’s easy to understand if you think of a civilization with a steampunk look and a magic-powered power source.

So that’s why you used that crowbar so well.

I can also understand why he was good at using powerful weapons.

anyway.

She was kidnapped at the port where she was staying to catch a ship home while on her way home for the holidays.

And then I woke up in an underground prison deep within Sahagin’s lair.

She regained consciousness among the people who had been transformed into half-humans, and with a single blow, she killed Sa-ha-gin, who was trying to inject her with a crowbar that happened to be nearby.

After that, she moved around here and there to escape from the Sahagin den, but when she caught a high-ranking Sahagin who was trying to capture her, her priorities changed.

Because that Sahagin left behind a message that their god would descend. After that, she obtained from him a weapon that could kill any Sahagin at once, and the key that could destroy this place.

And I knew I had already been injected.

So I killed all the Sahagins blocking my way and arrived at the summoning location.

After that, I was summoned, and it has come to this point.

The faded memories sparkle like the main character of a horror game. I agree with that, and I’ve been thinking about what to do in the future.

It hides in the water with this huge body.

This is a bit dangerous, because various bioweapons created using biotechnology have been pushed into the wild and died.

Even if I go out with this body, I don’t think it will help. It just. It will delay the time it takes to be torn apart a little.

Sure, you can turn me into a monster since you attacked me, but I have no intention of ever turning you into a monster by taking away my warmth again, unless I’m making a tool.

Because one laugh like that is enough.

“What should I do?”

“Don’t ask me again.”

Silence came.

Victoria, who was standing in the middle of the ruins with her arms crossed, looked at me as if something had come to mind and asked me a question.

“The kids at Magic School are walking around with creatures that can transform into people, called summons. Why can’t you?”

It’s a transformation.

You can’t use magic.

If so, is it possible for it to be a mutation rather than a transformation? I don’t know if it’s possible to change into a human form, but I’ve tried regenerating a body.

“Let me try it once.”

This is the first time I’ve changed the shape of a vessel. Since it’s not a living creature, but a created creature, there’s no resistance.

If I force reality, the world will change in the direction I want.

Crack.

The world is cracked thinly.

“Huh? It was a girl?”

I became a little girl.

I am speechless.

The girl’s appearance is that of someone I know. It’s not exactly the same, but…

A small girl whose face is still vivid stands before Victoria’s eyes.

I swear I had no intention of looking like this girl.

Purple hair and small hands and feet. A girl similar to the one I saw last.

Soo.

On one side of my memory, a technique I had no idea how to use flashed before.

The first introduction to Soosimgong.

yes.

That memory faintly twinkles.

It was as if Soo-oh had played a prank on me and laughed when it succeeded.
