《ShÅ«matsu Sekai no Kaitaku-ki》 Chapter 1 chapter 1: making master ¡°This is the last¡­should be¡± My hands are shaking with tension. It feels like my throat is parched and my tongue is stuck. Neither of these should be possible in VR. ¡°From fangs I made swords. From scales I made armor. From horns I made remedies. From meat I made dishes. All that¡¯s left is to process this.¡± held in my handI gazed at the dragon¡¯s soul. It was long. So far, it¡¯s been really long. Full dive VR game for one person ¡°World Maker¡±. It is classified as a voxel-style making RPG. The main story of the game is that the player is a miko who has been given a part of the power of the creator god to takes back the world that has been ruled by the god of destruction. The methods can be broadly divided into these three: filling the world with the power of the Creator God by making things, helping and developing the residents living in poverty, and defeating the monsters the forces of the God of Destruction. By the way, I finished the main story a long time ago. Rather, the real thing is after it¡¯s over. After all, everything that makes up this world, including grass, soil, stones, trees, water, food, and even monsters, are materials for making things. And it wouldn¡¯t be an exaggeration to say that the number of possible combinations of items is infinite. I, Rion Akizuki(), was also one of the people who started playing games because I was fascinated by the system of free creation, and she has been playing for several years. For example, players can create their own bases. What materials she uses, how arrange the floor, what decorates with¡­ everything is up to player. From a small house to a huge castle, anything can be created depending on the imagination of the player. By the way, voxel is a word that combines volume and pixel, and simply put, it is a world made up of a collection of cubes. Many, but not all, materials exist in the form of cubes, and when the ground is dug, a square hole is opened in the ground and adicemade of soil is created.and when you dig a rocky mountain, a square hole opens in the rock surface and you get a dice made of stone. Of course, it can be processed into other shapes, but one of the ways to enjoy it is to create things with the limitations of being a cube. There are various skills for making things. Mining, logging, agriculture, craftsmanship, cooking, blacksmithing, etc.etc.There are many skills for creation, but there is not a single offensive skill. Raising one skill level to MAX is quite a chore, but I have all my skill levels at MAX. In the first place, there are things that can¡¯t be made without raising the skill level, and there are things that can¡¯t be obtained as materials, so naturally I have no choice but to raise it. Also, even if it¡¯s for single use, if you have the same software and register as friends, you can go to each other¡¯s worlds. I was often called by friends, and vice versa. You can brag about the self-confidence that you made with painstaking effort, and you will be forced to do so. Making things together and going on adventures looking for materials. Everything was fun. However, as time passed, one or two of them quit the game and decreased¡­ eventually I was the only one. Of course, if you look online, there are still people playing the game, but I didn¡¯t feel like looking for new friends. Even so, I continued to travel around the world and create things. In order to achieve the goal of ¡°making all items¡±, many people tried but gave up due to the large number of item recipes. That¡¯s how I challenged the hidden boss in the game, the strongest monster. ¨CEvil dragon Ouroboros Dragon. The first time I tried, I was killed instantly. Far from being the second time, he was defeated over and over again. I decided that this way was no good, so I temporarily stopped the challenge, and spent a lot of time preparing as much as I could. I created the strongestWeaponOrichalcum sword.sharpness, endurance, holy attributes, and all additional effects that can be attached i attached. For the armor i created all parts fromhardestmeteorite. I full enchanted this too. Icreated a large number of recovery items. Icreated consumable items that temporarily increase attack power and defense power. I created scrolls that cast spells and tools that deal damage, such as bombs. I made things until the item box was full.After all for the players creation is all. I read the capture site many times,and I even challenged it knowing that I would be killed to confirm the fighting pace. On a certain site, ¡°No matter how you look at it, this is a difficulty level that presupposes multiplayer.Going it alone is just a waste of time.Who set the difficulty level? Are you bullying solo players, you idiot?¡±.It was written like that, but I was stubborn and said, ¡°I¡¯ll definitely conquer it solo!¡± After a period of preparation,I took on the final challenge with the enthusiasm of ¡°If I can¡¯t win with this, I¡¯ll quit!¡± And¡­ after a fierce battle that lasted over an hour, I finally succeeded in defeating the Ouroboros Dragon. It was barely.Except for the sword I was gripping at the end, all of my equipment, including the spare, lost durability and was destroyed.I ran out of attack items and consumed 90% of recovery items. Although all of them can be recreated, considering the time and money it takes, it is tremendous.¡±It¡¯s not worth it!¡±Most players will think. What made you go that far?Of course, there are materials that cannot be obtained without defeating them, and there are items that cannot be made without the materials.In the first place, if you are not the type to pursue romance, you will not go this far. And if you create an item using this dragon¡¯s material, all the recipes will finally be created¡­¡­. should be. Swords from fangs, armor from scales, elixir from horns, and cooking from meat. And finally. ¡°Accessories from the soul. create! ¡± Light overflows from my hand as the skill activates. At the same time, a system message popped up. {{ Select one item to add. }} ¡°Huh? Did that kind of information existed?¡± According to the recipe, it should be possible to create it using only the soul of the Ouroboros Dragon. And since it is an item created from the material of the strongest boss,Information that seems important likethe need of one more item is missing from the strategy site¡­ Hmmm, did you restrain yourself from spoilers? If I made a mistake in choosing and had to redo the materials again i will getget sick.as No, but if its that fatal, the information will be posted? ¡°¡­ well, let¡¯s go with this¡± I wondered if I should stop creating and gather information, but I followed my intuition and selected a certain item. Teardrop A stone in which the power of the Creator God faintly dwells. Are the tears shaped like joy or sadness? An item that I only got two after playing for several years. One was of course become an item material,It is a key item for releasing item recipes related to the Creator God. The other one is the one that i thought there was no point in making the same item, so I put it on hold for a long time,after all, it was a product that had no use until now and kept sleeping in a corner of the item box. All the recipes have already been unlocked, and there are no other recipes that require this item, so even if I lost it, it would be a pity, but it wouldn¡¯t hurt. It was a valuable item, so I wonder if I got more than one to help someone who lost it.I used to think that, but I¡¯ve come to think that maybe it was for this reason. {{ Are you sure you want to select this item? }} ¡°Yes¡± The suspended making was resumed, and the light became a little brighter. It¡¯s awarm like, cold like, a strange sensations that have never experecied before, was probalybecause my spirit was exalted. Perhaps because it¡¯s a special item, the light that usually disappears in an instant disappears quietly only after about 10 seconds. And what was left in my palm is- Ouroboros Ring An accessory imbued with the power of the primordial dragon Ouroboros Dragon and that was the end and the beginning.What was destruction and creation. When the missing thing is regained, it will become a new . [Indestructible attribute] The flavor text displayed with the item made me feel uncomfortable for a moment, saying, ¡°Hmm?the system message that followed splendidly blew me it out of my head. {{ All items have been created. }} {{ The title [The Creator of Everything] will be awarded. }} ¡°I did it!¡± Make all items. I wanted it so strongly that I could say I was longing for it. The title was obtained from the system, in other words, proof that it was definitely achieved. When I realized that fact, my body overflowed with joy, and on impulse I clenched my fist and thrust it up into the sky. {{ A new update has been downloaded. }} Chapter 2 chapter 2: To the new world I noticed itthree days after I got the title. The joy and sense of accomplishment that comes from getting the long-awaited title. Thesense of loss that gradually cameto meafter being immersed in the afterglow. What should I do next¡­? Starting the game with a blank head,doing perfectly ingrained routines (such as tending to your crops or crafting favorites consumables) unconsciously. Then at such time isuddenly remembered that i hadn¡¯t looked closely at the last item created and opened thewindow i noticed blinking mensage. {{ An oracle has arrived from the Creator God.}} Ahthere was an update comingI completely forgot about it. It¡¯s been five years since this game was released.Not long after it was released, there were many small correction patches.One year after its release and again another year after that, expansionpacks (DLC) was put to sale (of course i already bought it)the expansion pack is be introduced in the form ofa new instruction,an oracle from the creator god. But after that, there was no particular activity, so what was added now?inclining my head in confusion i tapped the mensage. {{ We are in need for your helpin a different world.Could you please come over?}} {{*Caution: You cannot return to your original world.}} ¡°Hmm¡­? What do you mean¡­?¡± The two expansion packs that have been added so far were both mini-scenario additions. in addition,new materials and item recipes have been added, but they have nothing to do with getting the master title. Well i have too completed them. ¡°No, wait? Speaking of which, there are rumors that a sequel game is in development¡­¡± This game sold quite well.There was an opinion that the main story was too lightly and unsatisfactory, but, The depth of manufacturing system was more than sufficient compensated for that.In fact,togot thefinal title,it took meuntil now. It was also because I was alone (solo), but that aside. I¡¯m kind of burnt out right now, but I can still enjoy making things as much as I want even after I get the title. However, even though this game has social elements, it is still a consumer game.If it¡¯s an online game, you may be able to add new elements more and more by repeating updates, but this is not the case. It¡¯s no wonder that users want a sequel, and that a sequel is developed because it sold well. And in fact, there were rumors that a sequel was being developed since around last year. Perhaps are you inviting me as a tester? I¡¯ve never heard of it in consumer games, but it¡¯s common for online games to recruit testers from the general public.Perhaps the new work could be an online game. But¡­ [I can¡¯t go back to the original world] huh.Is there no backward compatibility? Well, aside from business applications for personal computers,it¡¯s normal for games.sometimes you can get the play benefits of the previous work in the new work, but that¡¯s about it. I didn¡¯t realize it at the time. It is impossible that logic to happen. But¡­ it can¡¯t be helped. After all, no one should think ¡°that really could happen¡±. No matter how much the story is full of creation, fantasy is fantasy It¡¯s impossible for it to actually happen- ¡°Hmm¡­ It¡¯s a pity that I can¡¯t play in the completed state, but I was in trouble because I didn¡¯t have nothing to do it anyway, so if I want to come back, I should create new game data.¡± When I was lazy after achieving my goal, I was given fuel that is the possibility of might be able to play the new version of the game I liked and played. I couldn¡¯t resist its charm. Yes, Wow!? Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz The moment i tapped the letters, a black glitch and the noise of static overflowed around me. Theglitchspreads quickly and wriggles with a raspy, nasty static as it eats up everything in sight. ¡°Hiii¡­!¡± For some reason, from my perspective the glitch looked like the Ouroboros Dragon I fought a few days ago was trying to eat it with its mouth wide open. The noise sounded like a roar. While my head is blank with confusion, the wall was eaten, the sky was eaten, the earth was eaten. ¡°Gonna drop down¨C!?¡±as i thought i shuddered and closed my eyes tightly at the same time. Everything is painted black¡­ ¡°What?¡± There was no impact from the fall, and before I knew it, my feet were firmly planted on the ground. When I fearfully opened my eyes, the sight that jumped into me was ¡°Ugh¡­waaaa!¡± It was a grassland that was too real. Although the technology has been developing year by year, there are still many things that you can tell at a glance is artificial. But what about this? Each grass wet with the morning dew, small flowers in full bloom, rustling leaves, and clouds drifting in the sky. Everything I saw was as if I had captured the by a photograph as it was. I can feel the ground. Since collision detection is necessary, there is a feeling of objects, but it was like walking on a uniform, flat floor. If it was a rocky mountain, it would have been a little rough, but this is not that level.You can even feel the fine touch of stepping on grass and pebbles. The wind rustles your hair. The scent of flowers tickles her nose. The warmth of the sun caresses her skin. The whole body is covered with a feeling as if you were in reality. The taste of cooking items, which were only expressed simply, may be felt in detail.I¡¯m looking forward to making cooking items. ¡°Oops, I have to check the system as well.¡± These sensations can be enjoyed as long as you play the game. However, in-game time is ticking away,the brightness and height of the sun make it feel like morning, but there¡¯s a lot of work to be done before nightfall. ¡°Status¡­ is opened in the same way.¡± I was able to open the familiar status screen by thinking about it At the top is the player name, four letters of Rion. I was not good at deciding on a name, so i put my real name. Other items are three long thin bars next to LP(life point), MP(mental point)and SP(Stomach point?). LP decreases when you get hit by enemy attacks or when you fall from a high place.If you have SP, you will recover naturally.It also recovers with recovery items. MP mainly decreases when create things.If you have SP, you will recover naturally.It also recovers with recovery items. SP decreases over time.Recover by eating food. These are not displayed as exact numbers, but they aredisplayedas bar lengths and (%). Attack power and defense power do not exist as numerical values.Also, there is no player level, it is a skill level system game. ¡°Quick access¡­ i can do it too. The same goes for the item box.¡± There exist a function called quick access box, commonly known as a QA box,there are ten frames avaible and youcan have up to 999 of the same item in one frame. There is a restriction that you have to register the item there to use it,but it also has the advantage of being able to switch just by being conscious of it.For example, even if you are equipped with a sword, you can instantly change to a bow.By the way, armor is prepared separately as an equipment frame with the rest of the items stored in the item box and cannot be used unless they are replaced with the QA box as mentioned above, but instead there are 100 frames of storage. The starting items are three wound medicines and three pieces of bread. Cooking items generally spoil over time.The only things that don¡¯t rot are those that are classified as preserved food, such as dried meat and dried bread, or those that have an additional effect of preservation. The starting item bread is enchanted, so I¡¯d like to keep it as emergency food until I can enchant it myself. ¡°God¡¯s Knife, Pickaxe, Axe and Shovel¡± This is also the same as the previous work. Although it has the exaggerated name ¡°God¡±, its performance itself is the weakest in the game. However, there is always a durability value for equipment, and although it can be recovered by repairing, it will gradually decrease each time it is used, and will break when it reaches zero.Butthese don¡¯t have this limitations. This is because they are endowed with a special ability called [Indestructible Attribute], which literally means ¡°absolutely unbreakable¡±. This [Indestructible Attribute] is given to event key items, etc, and cannot be given by the player¡¯s will. ¡°Skillsare¡­ down to all to level 1 across the board, and all but the initial skills are gone. Well, it can¡¯t be helped.¡± When i was aiming to become a Making Master Title, I acquired all the skills and reached the max level, but if I could inherit them, I would be in a ¡°new game+¡± state.but in a new work that isimpossible. ¡°However, I wonder if there are any benefits¡­ Oh?¡± As I was checking around the system, I noticed that the accessory slot in the equipment column, which was empty in the initial state, was equipped with an item.By the way, I finally noticed that it was hanging from a string around my neck. That itemis- ¡°¡­ouroboros ring¡­?¡± Chapter 3 chapter 3: the beginning of a new life Ouroboros Ring An accessory imbued with the power of the primordial dragon Ouroboros Dragon and that was the end and the beginning.What was destruction and creation. When the missing thing is regained, it will become a new . [Indestructible attribute] It was the last item I created in the previous work. There are no special effects other than [Indestructible Attribute], so I wonder if i was given it as a souvenir?¡± After all, the material is the soul of the strongest boss in the game. Far from being rare, it may be a unique item that can never be made again. ¡°I¡¯m worried about the fact that some of the flavor text is broken, but¡­ well, the items carried over from the previous game won¡¯t become important items.¡± I understand the desire to cherish old users, but if there is an extreme difference, it will become a problem. That¡¯s why, at most it¡¯s a little more advantageous in the early stages, and this time it¡¯s just a memento that doesn¡¯t have any kind of effect. However, it is the item that led me to the making master. It¡¯s have [Indestructible attribute] so it will not break, and if it is a key item for an event, it will not be lost, but there is no guarantee that the latter will be applied in the new work. so let¡¯s be careful to not to lose it. After staring at it for a while, I gently put it inside my clothes (clothes from in my initial equipment). ¡°The only thing left to do is actually play and learn.Since there is no help option, lets proceed with the same procedure as the previous work. At this time ididn¡¯t realize that besides the help option,one more function, in a sense, the most important feature of a game was missing. ¡°First we have to secure water. We have to find a river or a village.¡± In the previous work, water was a very important element. Especially in the beginning. Since the game setting was ¡°a world ruled by a god of destruction¡±, the starting point of the game (which is random within a certain range) still retains relatively strong power of the Creator God (otherwise the enemy is too strong and the player will die) rarely there is villages nearby, but rivers are nearby very often. It is important point to explain that water recovers SP slightly, it is used for various items and it is often required as a primary material in item recipes obtained in the late game. A primary material is, for example, to make an item A, an item B is necessary, and to make the item B the item C is necessary, and so on goes.The primary material is the material that becomes the starting point of the chain. And since it¡¯s necessary to create the most important item in the early stages, it should definitely be secured first. ¡°There it is it!¡± After about fifteen minutes of walking eastward across the grassland, I was able to find a small stream. ¡°It¡¯s transparent and doesn¡¯t have a strange smell, it seems to be fine. There are fish here and there, so it doesn¡¯t seem like there¡¯s a problem with food for the time being.¡± If this becomes a territory where the God of Destruction¡¯s control is strong, it will become poisonous, so you need to be careful, but as expected, such a impossibly hard situation will not occur in the early stages. But the fluid simulation of this river is amazing. You can feel the coolness and temperature, and there are water droplets sliding in the skin. ¡°Is the player avatar was converted as it was?¡± My face reflected on the surface of the water is the same as the playable character from the previous work¡­ it feels more precise. The same can be said for the background, but the roughness peculiar to polygons is not seen at all. The model is me in junior high school, with short cut hair andmedium height and build. The only changes are that my eyes are a little droopy and i have blonde hair and blue eyes.It¡¯s not about faking being young, it¡¯s just that I started playing games when I was in middle school. It¡¯s too late now but i pinch my cheeks to see if it is a dream, it¡¯s really realistic game. ¡°Well, let¡¯s make the first base!¡± One way is to search for villages right away, but as mentioned earlier, there are only a few villages, so it¡¯s not always possible to find them right away. That¡¯s why even if it¡¯s simple, i need to create a base where i can safely sleep and work,Of course, it¡¯s fine to make it the best possible ,but in the early stages there aren¡¯t many items and materials that can be used, so it¡¯s better to postpone the elaborate work until later. ¡°Woods materials, woods materials¡­ ¡± There was a forest on the other side of the river, so let¡¯s cut trees there. ¡°It¡¯s your turn.¡± I equip the God¡¯s Ax from QA (Quick Access Box),when felling trees,It is most efficient to use an ax-type tool. It¡¯s justjust non-special tree so it is not impossible to do it with my bare hands, but LP is reduced, SP is reduced, and it takes a lot of time, so it¡¯s nothing just a penitence. There were some fierce guys doing this and that with their bare hands as a self imposed restrictions, but i couldn¡¯t understand the fun of that. ¡°And here goes!¡± Swing the ax in a form similar to swinging a baseball bat. ston , a pleasant sound resounded. the sounds are good, but it just looks like an iron ax, but it¡¯s the weakest initial equipment. Even trees in the early stages need to be chopped many times to be cut down,When comes to hard trees, the blades of the axe do not endure the work and it becomes impossible to cut the tree down. If the skill level rises, theperformance of the axe can be covered to some extent, but unfortunately for nowit¡¯s level is 1. I have no choice but to do my beststeadily. After about 20 hits, the tree finally fell. ¡°Hm? Did the itemization process change a bit?¡± In the previous game, when you cut down a tree, you got a square block-shaped wood item. But now the tree has fallen and shows no sign of become a block. While inclining my neck in confusion, i swinging the ax against the tree again and it finally turned into a block. I also got some tree branches. Swinging an the ax on the remaining stump it turned into a sapling. Good, now you don¡¯t have to panic later about don¡¯t have any wood. Why did the stump become a sapling? It¡¯s because the power of the God of Creation!(halfhearted response). I continued logging while recovering my SP by drinking water, and when my skill level rose to 2, I got the amount of wood necessary to build a base. I also got some nuts, so let¡¯s use for breakfast tomorrow. ¡°Shall we level the ground next? Come on, god¡¯s shovel!¡± Since there is no sound effect, I access God¡¯s shovel and change the equipment while making effect sound with my mouth.If you¡¯re messing with the soil, it¡¯s a shovel type equipment. By the way, if you use a shovel, you will get a small amount of farming skill experience. Roughly removing the grass and pebbles, i dig the convex parts, and fill the concave parts. Don¡¯t forgeting to put some dirt blocks in my item box. This is also a material for various items. At first, the dirt that i dug was just dirt, but as soon i collected it, it turned into blocks. What is the difference between these specifications? Well, now that the ground has flattened, lets have some food before we build a house. Water cant keep up with SP recoveryor rather, Im feeling really hungry I catch the fish that were swimming in the river with the wooden bucket that was made in the meantime of cut down the trees. Even though I wanted to make a fishing rod, I hadn¡¯t been able to collect the thread yet. However, the number of item recipes has increased considerably. can i make it? if thought to make it can make. There is also a fishing skill, but it seems that you can¡¯t get skill experience points unless you use a fishing rod. If the level increases rare fish can be caught. Stack stones to create a windbreak, arrange tree branches randomly, I pick up flint to start a fire. ¡°Processing fish with God¡¯s knife¡­ uee¡­that raw feeling¡­blood is drooping¡­ it even necessary to make this far realistic¡­¡± I made a cutting board out of wood, but I can¡¯t make a kitchen knife yet, so I¡¯ll use a the God¡¯s knife instead. It¡¯s general to all skills, but if you don¡¯t finish just automatically with the creation (making) skill and manualy process the item, the acquisition skill experience value will increase a just little, Also saves MP. So when i can afford, I try to do it as much as possible. While frowning at the subtle disgust, I removed the scales and took out the internal organs. If it¡¯s a rare fish, this parts becomes the material for another item. ¡°Okay, I¡¯m going to stick it in a tree branch and grill it. What will it taste like?¡± I am very interested in how much this game has become realistic in everything and how much the taste is reproduced. And above all, I¡¯m hungry, so I can¡¯t help but look forward to grilling. With the crackling sound as BGM, I waited for several minutes while making small things with wood and earth in order to increase my crafting skill level even a if little. When the skin is browned and crispy, I pick up the tree branch and say, ¡°looks good.¡± gulp¡­my throat rangs naturally. ¡°Let¡¯s eat~¡± I blew on it so as not to burn myself then put my mouth on it. ¡°¡­ it¡¯s not so much delicious¡­¡± It may be because the cooking skill level is 1, but the decisive reason is probably the lack of seasoning. The grilled fish without soy sauce or even salt was very unsatisfactory for modern people. Although it was disappointing, let¡¯s think positively, if i raise my skill level and collect seasonings, i might be able to eat something delicious¡­¡± Chapter 4 ¡°My SP has recovered, so now it¡¯s time to build!¡± While saying so, I pile up the wood that are in blocks form. It is not a log house created using wooden logs, but the wooden blocks. Of course, it is possible to process it into a wooden board, but the material itself is not very strong and cannot be strengthened, so the block-shaped one has the highest defensive power. As the construction skill level increases, the building will be strengthened, which is a big advantage, so I would like to raise that as well. Other than that it also unlocks recipes for buildings with special effects. For the time being, the skill level is 1 and it¡¯s my first base, so I¡¯m going to make a square wall without considering the habitability. I will not accept to be called just a square block house*. ¡°Because i can expand as much as i want later, As a minimum, one room for the kitchen and dining room, and one room for work, and a room that doubles as a bedroom and storage room, that it¡¯s the basics.¡± I place a board as a partition in the square box to divide it into rooms. I also dig the ground to make it a little lower and fill it with wooden blocks to make it the floor. Next, i create windows frames and close them with boards while i thought about how to obtaining the glass for it. I Install a wooden door at the entrance and make a ceiling too. Just to explain, although it is a ceiling, there is no need to pass a long object such as a pillar. In this game there is a convenient fuction that the blocks sticks just by bringing the block to the side to side. I¡¯m glad that the old game function didn¡¯t change here in the new one. ¡°I almost forgot about the toilet¡­ let¡¯s just make the dining room a little smaller.¡± By the power of the creator god you can make fertilizer just by placing a jar there and using it. I feel reluctancy to collect it, so I want to get magic stones quickly and automate it. A magic stone is, as the name suggests, a stone imbued with mana. The main way to get them is by picking up them or killing monsters. With the former method, you can¡¯t get much at the initial point, and with the latter method, monsters doesn¡¯t appear unless you step into an area where the power of the God of Destruction is strong or the dungeons that are scattered in various places, or when becames night and the monsters start spawning. The time when the sun rises is called the God of Creation¡¯s time, and the time when the sun goes down is called the God of Destruction¡¯s time. When it¡¯s the time of the God of destruction the monsters spawns at high speed, so there is a necessity of being extra careful. Although there was a time when I dared to stay awake at night and hunt monsters for materials after I got all the equipment. Also, even if you use all the mana of the magic stone, you can replenish it by consuming MP. However, it can broken occasionally, so it is basically treated as a consumable item. ¡°Phew¡­ Shall we fix the personal room next?¡± The kitchen that doubles as a dining room, until the things calm down i can cook outside and sit on the floor and eat, so let¡¯s make it later. For the time being, the work room has a workbench and a simple furnace. The others things will take time, so let¡¯s add it later. Workbenches are used to craft items that don¡¯t require specific tools, such as blacksmithing blast furnaces and alchemy cauldrons, and with the exception of very simple items, are needed for most item crafting processes. When the total skill level exceeds a certain value, the rank of the workbench will increase. In the bedroom, I immediately put a wooden bed made using the workbench. Sleeping in the bed restores LP and MP, so it¡¯s very important. However, the bed mattress is made of grass straw picked up around here, just by looking at it i feel ticklish.So i urgently want cotton. It is also important to create a storage box, which is an installation type item box. Even though you can have up to 999 items in one frame of my own item box, I just have 10 frames in the QAbox and 100 frames in the item box, the number of items in this game is not so small enough that you can possess all items with just that. Therefore, although you can¡¯t take it out freely while you¡¯re out, it¡¯s important to prepare another item storage method. Since this storage has only a capacity of 10 frames, any player will install a large number of them. ¡°Oh no, it¡¯s already this late. I should have made that first.¡± When I put my head out of the window frame and looked up at the sky, the sun had moved about 45 degrees from its apex. Roughly calculing it, the time is around 3:00 pm. It¡¯s almost suicidal to spend the night without any countermeasures in the early stages of game without proper equipment. That¡¯s why I have to hurry up and prepare the most important facility now to survive the night. ¡°Wood¡­ No, let¡¯s make it of stone. I should be able to make it because my crafting skill level has risen.¡± I make two stone blocks appear on top of the workbench. What I¡¯m about to make is¡­ a statue of the Creator God. Gods exists in this world. There are several pillars such as the god of fire and the god of water, but the most important is of course the god of creation. And when we players, who are miko, start praying to statues that imitate the image the god of creation or the other gods, we can sometimes get various benefits like blessings, Well, more than often nothing happens. There are three important benefits that can be obtained by praying to the image of the Creator God. With the other gods they will change, but that¡¯s a story for another time. The first is to be shown the next course of action in the form of a oracle. Because it is a game with a high degree of freedom, you don¡¯t necessarily have to obey it, but basically it¡¯s better to obey because you¡¯ll get oracle skill experience points. As the skill level increases, sometimes even without having to pray, oracles are given. The second is to acquire new skills. Grant holy attribute and enchantments are quite important in this game. And the third, this is a function that is indispensable not just the in beginning but all the way to the end, the creation of the Sanctuary Deployment Item. As I mentioned earlier, night is the time of the God of Destruction, and monsters will attack you if you do not have countermeasures, so you can¡¯t sleep peacefully in that situation. Therefore, the sanctuary expansion item is used to make the base a sanctuary that prevent monsters from entering. You will also be able to take a break in a dungeon if you use it, so you should always have it. By the way, the easiest sanctuary expansion item recipe is holy water with take only water to be made. That¡¯s why I searched for the river first. Well, all of this is knowledge is from the previous game, but¡­ there have been almost no changes so far, I have no choice but to think that these functions are the same and try to make it. I don¡¯t want to end up unprepared because of my short-sightedness in time management. ¡°¡­Creation, [Creation God¡¯s Stone Statue]¡± The statue of the creator god also has a rank. The lowest is wood and the one above is stone. As the material upgrades, the benefits also upgrade with it. It¡¯s a matter of life or death, so we have to make the best thing that can be made now. ¡­¡­Well, it¡¯s just the second one up from the bottom. When the skill is activated, the stone block is enveloped in light and changes its shape like a piece of clay. After about 10 seconds, the light subsided and there was a beautiful woman with a gentle expression¡­ the stone statue of the Creator God. The height is about 80 centimeters, so the scale is about 1:2? No, it¡¯s a god so the scale could be more huge. With gentle looking eyes, a loosely wavy hair that reaches down to her waist, wearing a toga in her body that give a impression of elegance, and some parts that are being very assertive¡­ In many ways, the God of Creation have many fans. Well i like her too. ¡°I have to make an altar to enshrine it. It¡¯s so busy¡­¡± As the time when the sun rises is called the time of the creator god, there is a rule that the statue of the creator god must be placed outdoors and exposed to the sun. By the way the conditions are satisfied even if it is cloudy or rainy. Building an altar has a subtle effect up, but for that you have to raise both the construction skill and the oracle skill. Digging up the ground and fill it with stone blocks to make it look like bricks.I Create stone pillars at regular intervals around it and plant flower seeds i collected, and finally, at the center that was raised in comparison with the floor, I gently place the stone statue of the creator god. ¡°well, this is fine for now¡­ Before I forget, i have to make holy water.¡± After finishing making the holy water, I wondered if there were any other essential tasks?¡­ and checked the tasks. Yeah, the work that should have been done on the first day is over. ¡°Then let¡¯s say hello to God of Creation.¡± ¡­¡­Although it might have been the first thing I should have done since I came to this world. There is no particular way to pray, so i clapped my hands twice like in a shrine and then closed my eyes. ¡°God of Creation, thank you for your blessings, please watch over me.¡± When spoke it with my mouth, a light that was strong enough to be seen even with my eyelids closed was emitted covered this space. When I opened my eyes in surprise, the stone statue of the creator god was emitting light, extending a pillar of light into the sky. ¡°Is it an affect that pops up as a when a oracle reaches?¡± In the previous work, it was just a small light effect and it ended with just a short dialogue, or it was delivered as a system message, so when I looked up while making a stupid face at the phenomenon that i see for the first time, a ball of light started to descend slowly. Just when it stopped at a in a slightly higher position than the stone statue, this time it gradually changed its shape, to a gentle-looking woman who I remember seeing many times, or rather just was seeing right now. ¡°¡­ The Creation God ?¡± I compared the woman who appeared and the stone statue I was praying to a little while ago, and quietly whispered that. *Translator note : in here was used a term called tofu house (¶¹¸¯¥Ï¥¦¥¹) a term used by japan gamers to describe houses made in minecraft and other voxel games, that describle a simple square house that is easy to build in the start of the games, it¡¯s often a derogatory term. Chapter 5 ¡°¡­The God of creation?¡± In fact, despite being the most important character, the Creator God never appeared directly in the game. I thought it was because of the setting that the power of the God of Destruction was strong and the power of the God of Creation was weakening, but in the end, even after the story ended, she did not appear, she only existed in the form of oracles and items, villagers¡¯ stories and books, as text. So Isn¡¯t it unavoidable to be surprised when such a god suddenly appears in front of you? Moreover, somehow, the aura that she is emanating is amazing. It¡¯s full of nobility and makes you want to kneel down unintentionally. ¡°Yes, that¡¯s right. My miko, Rion.¡± ¡°!?¡± Oh, did she answer? Not only you can unilaterally receive an oracle, but can you also have a conversation? ¡°What¡¯s the problem?¡± ¡°Uhm¡­ I¡¯m just nervous about being able to talk to the Creator God.¡± It¡¯s not a lie at all, but there¡¯s no way I can say to my face that ¡°I can have a conversation?, this game has added such AI!¡± In the previous work the lines of the villagers could say change depending on the time of day and favorability, but they only said the lines that had been decided. Furthermore, she is not just talking normally. I wonder if her voice has some kind of God¡¯s power effect, my body is feeling a tingling sensation. It¡¯s not uncomfortable at all, but I feel a little suffocated. ¡°Ah¡­ I re-created your body for you to come here, so your rank went down. I¡¯m very sorry, Skills reside in the body, and the current me didn¡¯t have the power to reproduce them.¡± My skills were reset by conversion = I returned to being a newcomer as a miko, so I was overwhelmed by God¡¯s power, or something like that? I didn¡¯t care at all because I thought it was natural that there would be no transfer of skills. ¡­¡­Well, when I think about how much hard work takes to raise it to MAX again, I want to stare off into space. ¡°Miko Rion, I would like to thank you once again. Since I didn¡¯t have enough power to deliver it to another world, I was only able to send the bare minimum amount of oracles¡­ but you have made a good decision.¡± ¡°No, no way! I was also interested in the new world!¡± ¡°¡­Is that so? Even though you could never return to your hometown again¡­you were quite positive about it.¡± Before being nervous in front to a god. my heart get pounding when a beautiful woman bows me! Moreover, the blank face she made now creates a gap that is¡­¡­Having that kind of impression makes me feel like a dangerous person. When there was no way she could guess what was going on in my mind (i will troubled if she did), The Creator God turned to me with a sad face. ¡°There isn¡¯t much time left before the sun sets, so I¡¯ll give you a brief explanation. Also, this time¡¯s advent is pushing it too hard, so i won¡¯t be able to communicate with you again until after quite some time¡­at least after the moon has gone full circle.¡± ¡­¡­After all, I should have made the statue of the Creator God in the very beginning. Thinking about it normally, it¡¯s the most troublesome thing to do in the early stages when the power of the God of Creation is weakening, and on top of that, just before the time of the God of Destruction¡­ ¡°The reason for i asked you for help is only one, I want you to save this world, Asteria. Now, Asteria is being contamined by the power of destruction and is about to fall into the danger of extinction.¡± ¡°What is the erosion rate of the God of Destruction?¡± ¡°¡­more than 90%¡­everything except for this small area where you landed.¡± Hmm. Is it the same as the previous work? The area I¡¯m currently in is part of the southern part of the continent, and it¡¯s not that big in terms of size. It would certainly be a critical situation that everything other than this area is already under the control of the God of Destruction. By the way, you can live in the realm of the God of Destruction if you want to. The sunshine hours are extremely short, crops and animals grow poorly, monsters are strong, and item creation is restricted. Some of the inhabitants have already given up and are barely alive, while some others managed to build a fort and unite to resist the monsters. ¡°Using this land as a foothold, please use the power of creation to fill it. Please travel around the continent and help the residents. Please release each god whose power has been taken away and were sealed.¡± ¡­¡­Maybe this game is not a completely new game, but just a remake of the previous game with the latest technology? It¡¯s about the same. ¡°Is the system the same as ¡®World Maker¡¯?¡± ¡°¡­ Well, I can¡¯t say that they are all the same, but that world was created based on this world, so please think that what you can do over there, you can do here too. Rather, the number of things you can do should have increased considerably as the restrictions have disappeared.¡± Eh? Based on this world? So they were originally planning this work first? What is this? Even if i wanted to ask questions, the conversation with the Creator God was coming to an end before there was even a chance to interject. ¡°Finally. . . . It¡¯s because of you that i asked for help. At least for now, you were the only one with enough power and created the item I wanted.¡± ¡°Huh?¡± Am I the only one who earned the title of Making Master? No, no, that can¡¯t happen. ¡°I¡¯m sure that if are you, the God of Destruction¨D¨D¨D¨D¡± ¡°Wait, are you going to disappear right there? Creator God, you¡¯re really half-hearted aren¡¯t you!?¡± Thus, the first contact between me and the Creator God ended, leaving many questions unanswered. ¡°Hmm¡­ Well, it¡¯s not uncommon for meaningful hints to be scattered in the early stages, isn¡¯t it?¡± Little by little, the sky began to be covered in darkness, I withdrew into the base before the God of Destruction¡¯s time came. While mumbling over the fish that I had prepared for dinner in advance for lunch, I recalled the content of the conversation with the Creator God. ¡°It¡¯s a pity that it doesn¡¯t look like a completely new work, but with this quality it seems like it¡¯s going to be more than enough fun.¡± It¡¯s just nighttime, but there¡¯s no way I can go outside, and I¡¯m low on fuel so I can¡¯t work, so I¡¯ll just sleep quietly. I Head to the bedroom and crawl into the straw bed. It¡¯s just as tingling as I imagined. ¡°yawn~¡­drowsiness has also been reproduced¡­no, maybe my main body is feeling sleepy?¡¡Should I log out for today¡­¡± Then I opened the status and tried to select the system¨D¨D ¡°¡­¡­what?¡± It do not have. ¡°The logout button.¡± ¡°¡­¡­¡­¡­eh?¡± No matter how many times I strained my eyes, there was no system menu (difficulty change, volume adjustment, etc.), let alone logout. I checked slowly from the top left to the bottom right to see if the placement had changed, but I couldn¡¯t find it. I tried tapping in various places to see if it was misplaced in a different menu, but I couldn¡¯t find it. ¡°¡­ no way¡­?¡± It was in a message from the Creator God. I said that earlier. ¡°you can¡¯t go back to my original world¡± ¡°Even though you could never return to your hometown again¡± I was under the impression that ¡°the data cannot be returned to the original game¡±, but there was not a single word about that. However, it was clearly written that it was a ¡°different world¡±. in short. ¡°¡­ this is a real¡­ another world¡­?¡± The ¡°enough power¡± requirement includes a solo kill of Ouroboros Dragon. Because the difficulty is too hard the number of people who were able to achieve it is very small. Even if you defeat it in multiplayer, you can get items, so there are many making masters. Chapter 6 ¡°¡­this is a real¡­another world¡­?¡± ¡­¡­Actually, deep in my heart, I had a faint suspicion. Because this world is too ¡®real¡¯. Although there are game-like UI statuses, item boxes, and skills, graphics that compare with reality, with no roughness or seams, and fully stimulate the five senses¡­ Well, it was when I was in the bathroom that I started to wonder, ¡°Isn¡¯t this weird?¡± If there was a technology that could reproduce reality to this extent, it would have been picked up in the news before it was used in a game, and its existence would be widely known. And it will be used in various fields. The more I think about it, the more unreasonable it becomes to treat it as a game. AOOOOON¨D¨D ¡°Hii¡± Did a monster spawned nearby? As i continued to think about useless thoughts a howl reached my ears¡­and. don! don! don! don! ¡°W-what!?¡± A sound that sounded like wood hitting wood resounded from nearby, and I woke up thinking, ¡°What¡¯s going on!?¡± ¡°Aaaah!? i¡¯m a such a stupid!!¡± I made holy water, but I didn¡¯t sprinkle it because I was preoccupied with the coming of the Creator God! To ignore the monsters and go sleep like this? that is impossible! A simple wooden door don¡¯t have that kind of resilence! Even if you sprinkle it inside your house and turn it into a sanctuary, as it¡¯s a creator god-related item it will only last for a short time unless it¡¯s outdoors (so you can only take a short break in the dungeon), and to begin, if the door breaks, even with the sanctuary, this house is quite small so you can be thrown stones from the outside. So, I can¡¯t be safe unless I spray it in a range that at the very least surrounds the house.¡­And in order to do that, i have to defeat the monsters that are approaching in front of the house. ¡°Ahh, just calm down, me. This is the starting point, strong monsters don¡¯t spawn¡­should be.¡± I take a deep breath to soothe my painfully pounding heart, and i mutter to myself as if to convince myself. If it howls, has a wooden weapon, and is not strong enough to knock down immediately a unreinforced wooden door, the monster should be a kobold. The weakest existence in the game, along with the goblins. ¡°If it¡¯s just that much¡­ I can do it.¡± I equip the God¡¯s knife and a wooden shield that i made very quickly. Let alone metal, I can¡¯t even get leather, so that¡¯s all I have for armor. If i was inside the game is one thing, but after recognizing that ¡°it might be reality¡± i can¡¯t stop feeling uneasy at my poor equipment, but just because i want it, it will just not fall from the sky, so i have to use what i have now. Preparing myself, i swallow my saliva and await for the moment when the sound of knocking on the door stops¡­To jump out with full momentum! ¡°Uwaaaaaaaa!¡± ¡°Gyan!?¡± With the God¡¯s knife, i slash at the kobold who was hit hard by the door that was sudenly opened and become stunned. Ugh, the feeling of the knife pierce the flesh so gross! it¡¯s disgusting! Still, I couldn¡¯t just stop myself, with the weak offensive power of the God¡¯s Knife even a Kobold can¡¯t be defeated in one hit. Screaming in my heart, i continued slashing at the kobold over and over again and again. ¡°Haa, haa¡­ ugh¡­!¡± I looked down at the fallen kobold who was finally dead. And that was really bad. The grotesqueness of the messed up body and scattered internal organs made me nauseous. To the me who can¡¯t stand it and try to crouch down to vomit, a lesson is teached. Don¡¯t let your guard down before checking the safety of your surroundings. ¡°Gugya gya gya!¡± ¡°¡­ Ga!?¡± A goblin that appeared from my side and slashed at my shoulder. Fortunately, the trajectory was deviated from my head. If it was to hit my head it could have been fatal blown. However, even though it was just the shoulder, the feeling of being slashed with something like a knife, the ¡®realistic¡¯ pain that is different from the game, is not something that a regular japanese person can just stay calm and take it. ¡°Aughhh!!!¡± In addition to the pain, the goblins stink. It smelled really awful. The stench that almost twists my nose and the pain in my shoulder, that combination completely made me froze in place. ¡°Gyah gyah!¡± ¡°Kuh¡­!¡± Even though i feel like i want to writhe in the floor in pain, I roll forward to avoid a further pursuit attack. No matter how you looked at it, it was an unsightly figure, but it was far better than losing my life. When I looked back, the goblin was, as I expected with a blade in hands ¡ªan iron knife that he probably picked up from somewhere, it was full of rust and tattered to the point that it looked like it might break at any moment¡ª but it was glimmering in the moonlight as the goblin was swinging it around. It was just a coincidence that I was able to deflect attacks with my shield held up. It was because it was the same movement as if something jumped in front of me, so i immediately tried to put my arms in front to protect myself, so i was able to defend with the shield. ¡°World Maker¡± is a full-dive VR game, so it¡¯s not the type that manipulates the character with a controller, but the type that manipulates the character as if it were a real body. Therefore, player skills are necessary to fight monsters. There was no auxiliary system to compensate for my movements. Of course, I, who was a making master, had a lot of combat experience, and I knew everything about how to move my body and how to defeat enemies efficiently¡­ even though I should have. At that time, I was not able to use that experience. It¡¯s not like the fake body became a real body that was the problem, my physical ability was higher than in reality, and the movement felt exactly the same as when i was moving in the game. But. The real pain, the atmosphere of a battle that strikes with all five senses, not just pain. And above all, the goblin murderous intent. It was all, full of experiences that i felt for the first time . My mind, who thought it was a game until just a moment ago, could not have been prepared for the sudden action, and driven by my survival instinct, all i could do was swing the knife around randomly. ¡°This! you, you, you! Just drop dead!¡± ¡°Gya, guga¡­!¡± ¡­¡­I guess the reason I survived was because the remaining monster were just a goblin, and there was only one of them. I just got lucky and survived. When i got tired of wielding the knife and came to my senses, i found the goblin lying dead in a pool of blood. Either because of sadness or relief, tears began to flow from my eyes. Unable to wipe off my raging tears, i started to sniffle (and gagged at the goblin¡¯s stench), I half-consciously sprinkled holy water around the house and returned to the inside to crawl into the straw bed. ¡°Why did this happen¡­¡± Again, while unconsciously using wound medicine to heal the wound ¨Cactually, it was a shallow wound that was enough to heal with just one use, but I ended up using all three in vain. My thoughts were really out of order at this point¡ª I keep asking myself ¡°why?¡± over and over again. The reason why, is simple. I was just a fool. Complementing what is not written with my mind as i see fit, without checking the facts. I jumped in at the first the opportunity. If i didn¡¯t press YES right away and logged out and checked online, i could find out that no one was talking about beta testers, and determined that the mensage that i received must have been a mistake or just a scam. Judging from the conversation, the Creator God probably had no intention of deceive me at all, but carelessly getting involved in something whose truth is unknown, that is like being caught by a scammer. However, it is my fault for not confirming properly and cheaply take that offer, but as expected, no one thinks that they will encounter in real life a event like ¡°transition to another world¡±. That is not even at the level of an urban legend, it¡¯s is just a fantasy work event that no one thinks it will really happen. ¡­¡­So shouldn¡¯t it be forgiven if I spit out a grudge against the Creator God? Even if I did that, without any change, the straw bed would still sting me, and I wouldn¡¯t be pulled back to my original world, saying ¡°Actually, it was a dream¡± or ¡°It was a just a prank¡± in the end. I burst into tears several times. ¡°¡­be damned¡­¡± The wounds should have healed long ago, but a sharp phantom pain still hits me and the sleepless night continued¨D¨D
