Chapter 171.1
Chapter 171.1. Odin’s Speculation
“Well, regarding this time’s matter, before that, do you have any idea about the appearance of Nagamasa as the Golden Warrior?”
As Odin stared at me, I nodded and opened my mouth. I remembered the Golden Warrior Mode, True Awakening mode.
Raising my thin arms high, Miu started explaining.
“It’s an event before the final battle. It appears as [Entering the Last Battle. There’s no turning back, is that okay?].”
“Oh, yeah, it’s a common system. If you save after that, you’re in trouble.”
Freya nodded as she nibbled on mochi, not knowing how many she had eaten. Indeed, there are games like that.
“And then, the event starts. It’s a conversation event before the last battle party.”
All the main characters we had made into allies gather, and they start talking nostalgically.
They approach each member one by one and have a conversation. It was spectacular to see everyone gathered.
Some reminisce about the battles they had gone through, recalling how tough it was.
Others anticipate rewards and get excited, thinking about what will happen after the battle is over.
Some talked about their memories of Shin and fell in love with him, their cheeks dyeing red.
.
The player character is left out, not appearing on the screen, and not having a single line.
There’s an important scene where Shin and Sena confess their love and become a couple.
“Why is that? Why am I left out until the end? The degree of being left out is thorough. I feel like I should be kicked out of the party already. At least let me say a word!”
While everyone discusses the final battle, I pout and bang the table, wondering where I went.
Unfortunately, with her adorable face and petite, childlike figure, she only exudes a gentle atmosphere.
“That doesn’t matter. So, you transformed into True Awakening?”
Well, it’s just a game talk. But I remember it as being a terrible game, even worse than the game where the heroine princess marries the enemy general. Well, it’s just a game, so it’s fine.
I pout my lips in response to Odin’s indifferent reaction and talk about what I remember. It was terrible afterward as well.
“Yeah. You can only use it in the final battle. Shin and Sena’s stats increase by 200 and use special skills and magic. Only for that battle, though. Even if you clear it and start a New Game+ from the cleared data, you can’t use that power because it’s before the final battle.”
“Oh, wow, that’s amazing.”
“It estimates that it becomes level 90. I think it was certainly powerful.”
She looks satisfied as she enters the bracelet, but it’s a sad sight. Frigg-oneesan, can you come out from there soon?
“Um, um, what was Mii-tan’s level?”
Freya asked hesitantly, and I quickly turned my face away and continued the conversation.
“So, what happened then?”
Freya-san, you don’t have to ask about things you don’t need to know, you know? As for my level at that time, I think it was 150. I was unstoppable on my own.
“How did you transform True Awakening mode? Did Nagamasa transform?”
“Nah, let me think… Oh yeah, it was the power of the Fruit of Life obtained from the Tree of Life. They said those who consumed it and strongly inherited the blood of the first Emperor could enter the True Awakening mode. That kind of setting.”
I’m snapping my fingers and looking pleased. It’s quite tricky to snap your fingers, you know.
“As a member of the Dukedom, it goes without saying that you have the emperor’s blood.”
The Dukedom is a position obtained when imperial family members become vassals. Shin had the emperor’s blood. So he could enter the True Awakening mode.
Listening to the conversation while contemplating something, Grandpa Odin keeps his “hm hm” expression.
“I remember now. I think Kanna Yamato was the first to use the Fruit of Life. After entering True Awakening mode and defeating Kanna Yamato in the boss battle, he conveniently dies from the side effect of the potent poison caused by the Fruit of Life. Even though the poison had no effect during the boss battle. It’s a typical plot, you know.”
As I start talking, the memories become vivid. It’s about the game’s progression, but it’s not much different from the original.
“So, you understood the effects of the Fruit of Life, but they sealed it because it was dangerous. However, Shin made up his mind to use it at the final battle, accepting the danger. With Sena’s healing magic of love, he enters the True Awakening mode, and she also heals the poison’s effects.”
At that moment, I suddenly realize. That Tree of Life was obtained by Shin after the battle with Gerer in Tokyo, right?
Now it’s growing lushly in My Room’s garden.
Ah, no, that’s wrong. The Tree of Life in my room is a drop item. So the real one should still be in Tokyo.
Huh? Did someone take it? Or did Nagamasa steal it? How did he escape from the prison cell? Nidhogg must have helped. So does Nidhogg have the Tree of Life too?
“…It might be a problem if Shin doesn’t have the Tree of Life. He won’t be able to enter the True Awakening mode and won’t be able to defeat the Demon God. But well, it’s fine. I plan to defeat the Demon God in the secret mode anyway.”
It doesn’t matter if Shin can’t enter the True Awakening mode. Besides, only three Fruits of Life could be obtained, right? Nagamasa used one, leaving two. If Kanna Yamato doesn’t use it, there’s no way Shin and the others would know about its power, and the story would stall there.
But I’ll defeat the Demon God anyway, so it’s not a problem. Huh? In that case, does Kanna Yamato not die…? If that old man doesn’t die, he seems capable of reviving his forces indefinitely.
