Reincarnation Sim Game

Chapter 192 192 – That Night



Alain came out of the tent with a torch, walked over to a tree, then looked up to see Lynn sitting on one of the big branches with her eyes closed.

“I’m sorry, okay.” Alain shrugged. “Honestly, I’m just not used to your appearance like that. After this, I won’t complain or comment about how you dress.”

Or the lack of it.

The woman opened her eyes. “It’s okay. I’m used to things like that. It’s just… I don’t know.”

Lynn still remembers Rupert, her colleague who died during the cursed dress incident. At this time, she still wanted to be alone.

The archer sighed and then sat on the ground, leaning against the tree. Lynn wanted to move right away, but she didn’t like the situation to become more uncomfortable because of her selfishness.

“I feel so hot in the tent,” Alain spoke while yawning. “I prefer to sleep outside, which is a bit chilly.”

There was silence for a while until the archer continued his words. “So, what do you do every day?”

Lynn wanted to ask Alain to be quiet, but she finally answered. “I’m only patrolling at night.”

“Aah, you are patrolling for security, huh?” Alain nodded. “It’s the same with one of my friends. She forced my girlfriend and me—at that time, she was still my friend—to go on patrol after a series of random murders in a town. At first, I refused because I was lazy. We should use the night for rest.”

The man checked on Lynn, who didn’t respond at all. Seeing that the woman still had her eyes open, Alain continued. “But, in the end, she managed to convince me…. More like forcing me. She reasoned that the officers in the city were assholes. In the end, we managed to catch the crazy killer, which turned out to be satisfying for me…. Ah, I miss my friend who asked me that… She changed my days to be more colorful…. She was also the one who encouraged me to confess my love to the woman I liked.”

“Where is that woman now?” Lynn finally commented.

Alain smiled bitterly. “She’s gone. Sir Raymund had resurrected her as a servant, but she lost her memory completely, and I felt like I was seeing a different person. I feel like she’s not really coming back… She is that blonde-haired servant.”

Lynn was silent for a moment. “So, how do you get past that…. Dealing with the loss, I mean.”

“Well, I’m still struggling with that right now. After all, she is one of the most important people in my life.” Alain rubbed his face. “We can only walk forward, I guess.”

“This is incredible.” Gina had said such words of praise many times. She was crouching while observing Tamayo tuning Taka’s body. “So, this is a fusion of magic and inanimate objects, huh? You guys are really cool. You can make a body that can accommodate souls like this.”

Tamayo couldn’t help but smile stiffly, feeling nervous because of the mage’s presence.

Suddenly they all heard a sigh from Olga, who was still lying down. “I have to apologize for my selfishness, I guess.”

Gina faced the red-haired woman and put her hands on her hips. Olga spoke like that, still lying down, with her back turned this time.

“What exactly happened to you?” The mage asked. “Is it because you always work alone or what?”

“No, I’ve teamed up with other people several times.”

“Then why don’t you want to work in a team now?”

It took a while before Olga could speak again. “Many of my comrades in arms died… So, in the end, I chose to be alone.”

“Don’t worry, I’m sure the teammates are capable. They were chosen by a god, after all. You’ve partnered with Elise, right? She’s still alive, right? Well, I don’t know if a god servant can die or not…. Anyway, that’s not the point. The point is, you have to trust your teammates.”

“Elise and I were only selling waffles at the market back then, not doing any dangerous missions or anything like that.”

Now it was Gina’s turn, who couldn’t answer right away, and it took a while. “Okay.”

“Anyway, tomorrow I’ll be working alone, whatever the reason. So, I apologize in advance.”

Gina was about to argue, but she held herself back and finally let out a long sigh. “At the very least, don’t get in the way of me and the others.”

The mage realized there was no point in arguing with the red-haired woman.

“You guys, gather at one point in the tent. Lord Levi will give you the Divinity blessing. It takes some time, so it can only be done now.” Raymund’s voice was heard from all the communication tools given to those people.

Olga immediately got up from the sleeping bag. Then, not long after, Lynn and Alain came in. Tamayo hurriedly faced Taka back so as not to see Lynn again.

“So, what would we expect, sir?” Alain asked in a tone of mixed excitement and anxiety.

“Just wait.” After Raymund said that, a wisp of mist appeared above the heads of the people. Tamayo hastily retreated as the mist dropped droplets of light that fell on the bodies of the substitute servants.

“It’s warm.” Gina looked at her hands.

“I can feel a surge of energy in my body.” Alain looked enthusiastic. The anxiety on his face had disappeared without a trace. “Now, I can do what I couldn’t do before.”

Gina narrowed her eyes at the archer. “Hey, either because my magical ability increased or your magical affinity expanded. However, now I feel you are more of a magic user than an ordinary archer.”

Alain just smirked.

“You will also get weapons forged in the realm of God. These weapons are extraordinary and have tremendous power.” Raymund continued. “Except for Olga, she doesn’t need it because it’s a pretty good weapon.”

Not long after, the weapons fell in front of the substitute servants.

“This….” Gina gasped as she picked up the white magic gloves from the ground. “I feel a different and stronger magical aura than usual.”

“Strange.” Lynn moved the knife with the gold hilt. “I feel very familiar with this.”

Meanwhile, Taka just stood there looking at a katana in his hand. The katana looked similar to ordinary katana, but there was some sort of abstract wave patterns that kept moving on the blade.

Alain just looked at the bow, quiver, and arrows for him that were still on the ground. “No offense, sir. However, I’m more comfortable using mine. I’ll tell you the reason, but I can’t explain it in front of the others.”

“I see,” Raymund replied. “Then come out and tell me everything. And good luck to everyone.”

“I can’t believe you refused a gift from a god.” Gina shrugged, making a ball of light with her new gloves. “This is something extraordinary.”

“Ah, sorry. You’ll have to return all of that when this mission is over.” Raymund informed the mage, who immediately pouted.

Alain just smiled and left the tent.

I was silent after hearing the explanation from Alain.

“What do you think, Kimi?” I asked.

It took a while before the petite elf finally answered, “If he can actually do what he claims, then the chances of us succeeding are very high. However, I don’t think that his body can survive. It’s like performing a divine ritual on a smaller scale and without the spell that will save your body.”

“Even though he already obtained Divinity?”

“I don’t know, my lord.” Kimi sighed. “Even I don’t really understand this divinity yet.”

“The odds are fifty-fifty.” Levi continued to look at Alain, leaning against one of the trees. “Either he can live or die. However, I don’t believe his body will ever recover even if he’s alive. He could be paralyzed for life.”

“I see.”

“May I make a suggestion, sir?” The little elf chimed in again.

“Sure.”

She took a deep breath. “I get a vibe like my two friends in the land of elven in this guy.”

“What do you mean? Ah….” I was silent for a moment. “If your words are true, he will still use that ultimate move, even though I have forbidden it.”

Renee joined in, “It will be bad. His girlfriend is pregnant. It’s sad when the baby is born in a world without a father.”

“Then what should we do?” Levi responded with a bitter tone. “We can’t stop him from taking part in this mission. I’ve given him temporary divinity, and I think he’s crucial in this mission.”

“I know.” I massaged my forehead, which started to get a slight headache. All this stress turned out to be quite a burden on my body. “We can only hope that there are no conditions that would make him have to do that ultimate move…. Maybe I can ask everyone to stop him if he wants to do that tomorrow.”

“We can only hope, huh?” Levi chuckled. “If the mortals hope in us, who should we hope in.”

Levi’s words made my heart skip a beat. Yes, we are gods. To whom do we hope? Was it the cosmic being that I met on the train? Does he have the ability to influence all of this? Even if he did, would he want to do it?

After all, he was the one who sent me here as a spectacle.
