No Fatigue: 24-jikan Tatakaeru Otoko no Tenseitan

Chapter 49



Two weeks have passed since I found the reincarnators memoirs inside the historic remains.

In that time, I raised the proficiency of a few skills, while receiving guidance from Grandpa Ganashs place at night.

The cave with the rail cars that led to the underground space Grandpa Ganash resided in was strictly guarded, so I obtained the old mans permission to excavate a duct directly underneath his home.

Depending on the day, the old man would also come out to the dedicated space underground to give me guidance instead of in his home.

However, the old man was unavailable tonight so I took a break from his training.

At midnight, when I was raising my MP while waiting for everyone to fall asleep, I noticed Elemia slipping out of bed and leaving the room.

After the incident with the firedrake, the four children started acting strangely.

Miguel would sometimes be brooding with a grim face, and Beck and Donna would zone out.

As for Elemia, who I had more opportunities to converse with, she would often be seen reciting scriptures whilst praying.

I requested that the children keep quiet about what was discussed with the firedrake.

It seems there were times when they thought back to our conversation with Agnia, as they nodded without even asking for a reason.

Thanks to that, I was able to say we reached an understanding with the firedrake.

I thought that was absurd, but most of the people in the Nest seemed to think that its feasible for Orochi so it didnt become a big problem.

The fact that the children unanimously testified in strong belief also made a big impact.

Gazaine seemed to be in a good mood because the children all returned safely and didnt inquire very deeply about the exchange with the firedrake.

It seemed like he was somewhat occupied as well, so it was also that he was unable to.

Lately, I often see the other executives moving around the Nest in a hurry.

Even Grandpa Ganash was ordered to stock up on a large amount of poison, starting with Repchipa grass.

I suppose there will be some big movement soon.

Now, I was talking about Elemia leaving the room.

As usual, I head to the field with the open ceiling.

Elemia was squatting in front of the flower field, vacantly staring at the cluster of small light purple flowers that resembled lavenders as moonlight streamed in.

Two thirds of the flowers had been picked, which made the flower field a somewhat lonely scene.

According to what I heard from Grandpa Ganash, these flowers werent really planted to ease the hearts of onlookers, but instead cultivated as one of the ingredients for a hallucinogen used by .

Though I dont go so far as to doubt the flower field managers intention of having these flowers provide a bit of colour to our lives.

Elemia probably already realised that I have come as she excels at perceiving presences; she started talking without turning around.

Fellow believer Orochi.

I sometimes wonder what would have happened if you werent here.

Certainly, if I wasnt here then you could have remained as emissaries without suspecting anything.

Geez You wont even apologise, so annoying.

But its true that Fellow believer Orochi didnt do anything to apologise for.

Even though I want to cling to my beliefs at such a time, it concerns Evil God-sama so I cant even do that.

Ah, I could consult Mother and Father if they were here, but the Aubesso scriptures contain stories about children whose parents are demons.

I dont know whats what anymore.

Seeing Elemia so exhausted pains me as well.

Elemias parents, huh.

Im sure theyre good people.

I know that.

An inexperienced emissary cant think about their parents.

Cherish the ones who are around now, our fellow believers.

That is what the pastor has taught us.

Dont you want to see your mother and father?

I know its unfair, but I ask anyway.

I want to see them. Isnt it obvious that I want to see them!

Elemia grabbed hold of me.

But if I dont do my job, Mum and Dad will fall to hell!

You already know that those doctrines are just convenient for the organisation, right?

Elemias grip weakens.

I also understand what Fellow believer Orochi is saying.

Ive gradually come to understand.

But I cant stop believing in Evil God-sama

If I stop, so many things will become unbearable.

So many thingsfor example, being separated from her parents and living a life underground, or killing people while calling it a sacred task and such.

If hadnt kidnapped Elemia, those issues wouldnt have arisen in the first place.

However, it means that the Evil God is necessary for Elemia to overcome those issues.

Im glad that Elemia can now say these things, but shell probably draw back if I jump at it immediately.

If you want peace of mind, arent there many other doctrines?

No one would prefer to choose a religious organisation that kidnaps children and makes them kill people.

Other doctrines?

In my hometown, there was this kind of doctrine:

In this world, there is a great Buddha called Amitbha-sama who is watching over us.

Thats why there is no need for us to do anything special in order to be saved.

Its enough to just entrust everything to the Buddha and chant Namo Amitabha Buddhaya.

I suppose this is also modern knowledge.

Just chanting is enough?

Who knows, I dont know the details but that was our religion.

Our doctrine was a method that anyone could carry out easily.

If you couldnt be saved without special training, a majority of the world would be unsalvageable.

Amitbha-sama wouldnt say such shallow things.

I-I dont have to kill any more?

As long as you believe in Amitbha-sama.

Amitbha-sama, huh A name with a mysterious ring.

AndNamo Amitabha Buddhaya, was it.

Its like a spell in a fairytale.

Elemia giggled.

Also, that person said this.

Even a wrongdoer can receive aid from Amitbha-sama if they are penitent.

As long as someone is alive, they will also do wrong.

Whats truly the problem is not recognising you did wrong.

The important thing is to realise yourself that you did wrong and repent.

I feel like they actually said something more profound, but all I know is that much.

Even that was no more than retelling what I heard from a granny in the countryside when I was small.

Because I was living in a world with little prospect of evil and sins and such.

Does Fellow believer Orochi believe in that Amitbha-sama?

No, Im not a Buddhist.

Then how do you sustain your spirit?

Spirit, huh.

I am blessed.

Because I have parents who love me without restraint.

Someday, I will return to the two of them without fail.

That is what Ive decided in my heart, and so I put up with the present.

Thats not all Ive set my heart on.

I will crush this religious organisation by all means.

At this point, whether it had anything to do with the Evil god or not was a trivial matter.

Of course, I am angry about them drugging my family.

However, I am angrier about them separating little children from their parents and taking advantage of their anxiety and loneliness to make them kill people.

These guys who do such things, I cant leave them alone.

I dont know whether its because Im suffering from Prison Psychosis, but even though Im over 30 years old mentally, I feel like crying when think about Julia-kaasan, Alfred-tousan, and Steph at night.

To be honest, if Melby wasnt hereor if the children, including Elemia, werent here then I probably wouldnt be able to stand it.

Even I am like this despite having [No Fatigue].

I wonder how anxious and nervous the other children must be.

Fellow believer Orochi, you are strong.

Elemia says.

Its just a faade.

The fact that you can be like that means youre strong.

Elemia says enviously.

She says it as though she isnt accustomed to being strong herself.

Elemia.

What?

Elemia innocently tilts her head to the side as she asks. I resolve myself and said,

Wont you come with me?

Eh?

I havent said anything about it until now, but I intend to crush this organisation.

Will you come with me afterwards?

Well, although I say come, its just returning home.

Im sure Julia-kaasan and Alfred-tousan would welcome you, Elemia.

No matter what, they did accept someone like me after all.

C-crush, you say!

Honestly, Id like your help as well, but that would be harsh on you so I wont ask that of you.

Elemia stayed silent for a while before saying this.

Is Melby-san here?

Im here?

Melby says as she reveals herself.

I have also asked the children to keep quiet about Melby.

Mum said that fairies can tell when someone is lying.

So I want to ask you.

Is Fellow believer Orochi telling the truth?

He is.

Then, have the executives of been lying?

They have.

I see.

Elemia sighs.

Thank you, Melby-san.

Fellow believer Orochi, can I give you my reply after considering it a bit more?

Yeah, of course.
