I Am the Only Totem in This World

Episode 205. Afterword (5) [Complete]

Episode 205 Afterword (5)

– … Are you going to hand over your godhood? How?

[If both the giver and receiver agree, it can be passed on. It is the same principle as the ‘blessing’ we give to believers.]

Is it possible for Loa to hand it over to Loa?

– If the status window disappears, will all the abilities granted by Ishtania also disappear?

This is what I was worried about. My totem ability is also a power granted by the status window. If this ability disappears, it will become difficult to contribute to rebuilding civilization.

No, it’s not just getting harder. When the ‘power of the wind and rain god’ disappears, the wheat harvest is delayed. Food may become scarce. This wasn’t the end of the problem.

[Don’t worry. My abilities are Malak’s, not Ishtania’s. Since he chose you, it will not disappear even if the status window disappears.]

– What about other paladins?

[Their power will be recovered.]

– Are we going back to Ishtania?

[As you know, Ishtania was banished from this world. She will wander around her universe without being able to reach her.]

Is it because the connection is lost and I can’t find it?

While I was lost in thought, the unicorn spoke again.

[The ones who can threaten your power and are most likely to cause division are the paladins. We’re all united now, but it won’t be for long. Humans are jealous and quarrelsome beings. Internal strife is inevitable.]

Certainly, it can be seen as a risk factor. If a concubine or Dina reaches level 10 and attacks the tribal alliance with paladins of level 7 or higher, even if they win, they will suffer great damage.

Still, would those two do that? It is true that a close-range spy is a crazy person, but he is not someone who has a great desire for power or likes killing. The same goes for Princess Dina.

Not all humans fall to the bottom like Charon.

Charon… I had gone too far and there was nothing I could do about it. She wants to kill Zin Malak, even if it means sacrificing her her own life, so she kicks her last chance and chooses destruction.

I guess I wanted to kill and was anxious to die.

He’s been through something terrible, and he’s been alone for a long time. But paladins are different.

He was just about to say that that wouldn’t happen.

[…Or Ishtania might come back and control them. Since Ishtania was exiled, I now have full control of the status window. When she returns, her story will be different.]

Unicorn said she didn’t know what functions Ishtania might have hidden in her her status her window her her her. The medium is the root of one’s divinity and revenue, but it is Ishtania who designed it.

It is said that functions such as brainwashing and hypnosis are hidden, so the returning Ishtania can activate them right away.

– If the status window disappears, can the paladins return home?

[Impossible. They cannot return unless Ishtania uses her power directly.]

In that case, you’re just taking away power.

– The choice is entirely mine, right?

[Yes.]

– …

As I remained silent, the unicorn asked.

[You might need some time to think. Little bit more… ]

– No. The decision was made earlier.

Well, it’s decided, right?

– I will leave the status window. You manage the status window with Skynet.

I believe in the paladins.

You can say it is my faith in the human species.

Ishtania’s hidden brainwashing function? After all, isn’t that a brain-official thing that can’t be proven?

It doesn’t matter if there is.

There is a believer who worships Ishtania, and that believer has to use some kind of method to summon Ishtania before she can interfere, right? You just have to stop it before it does that.

And.

Community must exist. Seriously.

[JiminJimin: Why do toes exist if you’re going to bump into them?]

[Melee Spy: I’m the only dot dealer in the death game, but I’m too strong – Everyone who ignored the dot deal Hey, how are you feeling now? Episode 15]

[Morning Tent Installer: What happens if you marry a chief? It’s not my story, but I’m really curious so I’m asking]

[Dairy Cow Bikini Dance: There are too many cool guys these days. Now the era of hot people must come]

[Brahmantha: Will the rats get along?]

[I believed in Mr. Monkey: Real-time anger… I got beaten while telling the kids to let go of Teun-ni now… ]

[Takashikakashi: I think this way now. I’m happy to be alive]

[Corner of the room: Does anyone know where the saint is going?]

Without this, the fun of living would be reduced by half.

[If that’s your choice… ]

The unicorn blinked and turned around. I thought he was going to ask why he made that decision, but he backed off more gently than I expected.

Does it mean that because you acknowledge me, you trust my judgment?

– Let’s go back.

“I understand.”

Before Lakke left, I saw the Love Death cat running away in a hurry, hugging the unicorn and crying.

“Thank god… “

That woman could say something else than ‘nyang’.

Anyway, I just hope that the people living in Yggdrasil are happy too.

Because one sacrifice is enough.

The consciousness was transferred to the original body.

***

Late at night, I went to the Tundan quarantine facility with Lakhe.

I deliberately chose a time when there were no children coming to see the cocoons. Because it gets annoying if there are people watching.

“Uh, Sanz?”

William was guarding the front of the quarantine facility with his warriors.

William. He is a knight who joined the Golden Sun tribe while being chased by infectious agents. He was also one of the civilized people who joined the tribal alliance in its early days.

Is it because it’s been a while since I’ve seen his face his? Things that happened in the past come to mind.

There was an incident where Sister Grace, who led a group of civilized people with William, made a fuss by saying, ‘Don’t give weapons to children.’ ﹥

At that time, I was debating whether to bless Paya or not. It was because I didn’t feel comfortable sending her still young child to the battlefield.

‘It’s not something adults tell me to do. It’s not because the tribe people told us to do it. It was my choice.’

‘I’m tired of waiting for my dad to come back from a safe place. I would rather learn how to fight and protect my father.’

But I saw the strong will of the children living in an apocalyptic world, and I decided to respect them.

That’s how Paya became a spirit priest, and Deunteun became a spirit.

… Now, seeing Teunteun trying to ascend to heaven gives me a new feeling.

“There was an order from Malak to check Tuntun’s condition.”

Lakhe answered instead.

“Oh, I understand. Open the door!”

At William’s command, the doors to the quarantine facility were opened for the warriors. The fact that strict barbarian warriors treated civilized people like superiors was proof that William had adapted well to the tribal alliance.

“If you are interfering with Sanzu’s ritual, please stay back until I give you permission.”

Lakke nodded his head after biting William and his warriors.

Well then, let’s get started.

“Tough.”

Memories with Tuntuni… Even if you say that, it doesn’t mean anything. I went with Lake most of the time, and Tunteun went with Paya.

Still, he is a colleague that I have fought with for several years. There is so much camaraderie.

We slowly approached the cocoon. The cocoon made of Goddess wriggled slightly. Is it an illusion that it seems like it’s responding to my words?

Good. You are conscious.

“Do you want to become Loa?”

If you become a loa, you may not be able to see Paya and her children as often… I didn’t say the same thing. Since it’s a spirit creature, you probably know it to some extent.

This time the cocoon didn’t wiggle.

“If you don’t want to be… “

I transferred my consciousness to Totem No. 3 held by Lakhe.

– Hand over the godhead to me. I give permission, and you can pass it on if you want.

This is my choice.

Some lies are better left uncovered, and some are better left behind.

I can’t force or hold you back, but I think I can increase your options.

I am also a god. Let’s stop this nonsense.

Lakhe, who is 180cm tall and has a model body, lifted Totem No. 3. It looks like a scene from a CF.

– I will respect whatever your choice is. Do whatever you want. You deserve it.

I just said that and waited calmly until Tuntuni finished making his choice.

About 10 minutes have passed.

The quiet cocoon wriggled wildly and shot out light towards Totem No. 3.

I accepted it without rejecting it. A warm and strong energy fills my soul. It is the deity of a strong man.

Pump!

The moment all the gods were sucked in, the cocoon imprisoning Tunteun collapsed.

Kwiik-!

From within the collapsing cocoon, Tunteun rose.

Uncomfortably large and bright eyes were focused on me. Maybe they are saying ‘thank you’.

“Are you going to Paya?”

I asked, having returned to my original body.

Kwiik-!

The dog made a sound as if answering and flew up, flapping its wings.

Perhaps because I accepted a huge amount of divine power at once, my body felt weak. I watched Taeun-yi fly away with Lakhe’s support.

He’s so fast.

“If Sanzu ascends to heaven, leave it to me.”

“Lake, do you want to become a loa too?”

“That’s not it… It would be okay to go to the spirit world at least once. If I go, I will kill Tuga, Gaboon, and Sonok, and hit Rakan on the head before returning.”

“…”

“It’s a joke.”

No. It wasn’t a joke just now.

“I can’t do it. Just stay with me on earth for the rest of your life.”

“…!”

Anyway, one or two cases have been resolved. It’s also very smooth and nice.

Wouldn’t it be okay to write something stupid for this wonderful me?

Click.

[Ultrasanz crazy in annihilation mode on a moonlit night: Ah, the completion of a world where no one gets hurt]

It was a satisfying day.
