How To Live As A Writer In A Fantasy World

Just in case, I do not favor either Luminous or Mora. Both of them are good people, but there is no reason to favor them.

The reason I often visit Luminous is because the really simple things are just so close. There was a temple right in front of the academy.

On the other hand, Cecily’s help is absolutely necessary to find Mora. Whether we were going to our territory or to Helium, teleporting was essential.

Besides, this is not the end of it, and I have no choice but to wait outside until my prayer is over.

The Temple of Luminus has plenty of time to spare even on foot, but Mora is not, so it takes a lot of effort.

Of course, this is a thing of the past, but now that they are relatively relaxed, both of them are visiting equally. I just recently visited Luminous.

By the way, what happened to Mora all of a sudden? For me, more than bewildered, I couldn’t help but be anxious.

I wondered if there was something I didn’t know I did wrong. I wondered if the influence of blood and steel was also on Mora.

In fact, looking at the way the world is going now, even if I did something wrong, I had nothing to say. As the goddess of death and rest, it must be the busiest situation for her.

So, I was very nervous and entered the temple of Mora. It was because as soon as he heard Cecily’s words, he had an intuition that something would happen if he postponed it.

[Boy. I’ll ask you one thing.]

‘······Please speak.’

[Aren’t you too partial to Luminous oppa?]

‘·······’

And as soon as I talked to Mora, the expected bruise returned. I heard the bruise and couldn’t even say anything.

She used to be very playful, but now she has a different mood. Not knowing anything else, I felt the tone of disappointment strongly.

Was Mora really disappointed by only visiting Luminus? Or is it for some other reason?

As a mere mortal, it is difficult to know right now. The answer is to find the reason while having a conversation with Mora slowly.

‘·······Can’t do that. They’re both good people, so why would I show favoritism?’

[Then you were only going to ask Luminous oppa about such an important matter? I don’t even think about it?]

‘uh······’

I have nothing to say. Hearing Mora’s Pinzan, I couldn’t help but be embarrassed.

I was going to visit Luminous to choose one of the two ways to suppress the wave of national self-determination.

As I said before, it was close to the Luminus Temple, and I would have been able to get advice sooner rather than later. It’s absolutely not fair to treat Mora as cold rice.

But it seems that Mora was dissatisfied with that. Considering that he even asked Cecily, who is his messenger, it must be a very important part.

[That stupid corner is your charm. Although sometimes we do things that are so absurd that even we are embarrassed.]

‘·······’

[But dear. Me and Luminus oppa are gods who have a specific power, that is, transcendents. Depending on the flow of the world, the influence becomes stronger or weaker. The common enemy of demon worshipers is that we both have great powers, but now it’s different. You know that? The worse the world gets, the more strange things happen.]

There was no denying Mora’s words. ‘Cause it’s all right

A global economic downturn comparable to the Great Depression has turned the Minerva Empire into an ill-fated tiger, a revolution broke out in Machina, and Stavirk is calling for independence.

Other countries are similar. In the Principality of Velois, the body of the investor was removed day by day, and Albenheim is also diligently closing the hole.

Because of what I wrote, a tsunami, not a wave, swept across the world. The gods who feed on the beliefs of mortals are inevitably affected.

‘······· By the way, Luminus-sama said that it was okay and that it would happen in the first place?’

[That is also true. Because it prevented the worst panic from happening in the worst case. Because the bubble burst before it got bigger, the side effects are minimal.]

It’s still at a terrible level, but it’s insignificant. How bad would it have been if it had been the original history?

[However, it cannot be left unattended. This may sound harsh to you, a mortal, but we get our nourishment through mortals. You can increase your power just by mentioning it. In other words, the stronger the influence, the stronger our power. And that power goes back to you. It is a structure that circulates in this way.]

Hirt, Luminus, and Mora are the three transcendents. Beings with so much power and power that mortals are treated as ‘like’.

There are a number of limitations to direct intervention, but if you can intervene, you can exert a tremendous influence.

It may seem a little scary, but at least to me, they are kind people. Even though it was an accident, it was because of the people who gave me a lot of convenience.

‘Does that mean that Luminus-sama’s influence will become stronger if it goes on like this?’

[Also, apart from being stupid, he is smart. right. If it goes on like this, my brother’s influence will be stronger. I don’t know if you made your own choice, wouldn’t my position be in trouble if I only ask my brother for advice and make a decision?]

‘ah.’

You’re really upset that you didn’t come. There was a public part, but it also included personal feelings.

As Mora said, if I had chosen myself without going to anyone, I would have thought that both of them would have done the same.

However, since I ended up only looking for Luminous, from the standpoint of Mora, it must have been at a level where she couldn’t cry and was upset.

I thought it wasn’t favoritism, but it’s not. It was difficult to distinguish whether my thoughts were short or the scale was large.

‘I’m sorry. It’s because I thought it was okay for Xenon’s biography…’

[As I said before, back then, we had a common enemy, demon worshipers. But now you’re changing the whole world, aren’t you? So, from now on, don’t just go to my brother, but also come to me. Because I can give you some advice.]

‘Does that mean you two have different opinions?’

As one question was answered, another question emerged.

This wouldn’t have happened if the two of you had the same opinion, but they would have sent Cecily because they were completely different.

Luminus is the god of light, and Mora is the goddess of darkness. Light and darkness are inseparable, but completely opposite things.

In fact, the two siblings were born as twins, but they are different in many ways. This may be the reason for this situation.

Otherwise, there is no reason to call me.

[…]

Mora struggled to come up with an answer. Tee was hesitant to answer.

For a moment, I wondered if it was an answer that needed hesitation, but I accepted the situation as serious.

[But, as always, the choice is solely up to you. We’re literally just giving advice, it’s up to you which way you choose.]

‘thank you.’

[Thank you. what we are more grateful for Mom will be in a lot of pain in the future, but…]

‘·······’

That’s really stabbing. If the industrial revolution breaks out after the introduction of the horsepower engine, harm to nature will become relatively frequent.

However, as the saying goes, ‘the test of nature’, if you harm nature recklessly, you may be severely attacked by a giant monster.

Still, the fact that I had to use more resources than now had not changed, so I couldn’t help but feel sorry for it.

[Anyway, I have one thing to ask of you. Stacking huge amounts in a week, as you might have thought. And by doing so, temporarily extinguishing the flames of Stavirk. This is what I want.]

‘On the other hand, Luminus-sama would be the one to watch the situation?’

[right.]

‘Well······’

Why is Luminus recommending to watch the situation and Mora to put out the fire? a little curious

Luminus is the god of light and hope, and Mora is the goddess of darkness and rest. They are opposites from birth, so there must be a reason.

‘If you look closely, Luminus-sama participated in a lot of big wars, didn’t you?’

[Hen…]

huh? did i hear it wrong?

‘What did you say?’

[You didn’t say anything?]

Then I must have heard it wrong. After hearing Mora’s answer, I fell into thoughts again.

Following on from what I said earlier, Luminus participated in a number of historically significant wars. Strictly speaking, people close to ‘battle’ usually believed in Luminus.

The divine power of Luminus shows various effects, but the representative one is related to the ‘body’.

Starting with strengthening the body, granting special abilities like game buffs, or cleaning up trauma.

It is overflowing with effects that warriors, whose bodies are property itself, have no choice but to believe. Naturally, these warriors must have participated in numerous battles or wars.

‘On the other hand, Mora-nim…’

Like the modifier of ‘rest’, he is a person who loves peace. The spiritual realm, of course, is very close to peace.

When the mad savior swept the whole country, he protected the demons who were being slaughtered helplessly, and before that, he cared for the dark elves.

Above all, there are very few records of direct influence on the war, even though he was active in the dark.

At least, the fact that a person who believed in Mora led the assassination. In any case, the fact that it is quite far from war remains the same.

‘War and peace are opposite situations. There may be a difference in this aspect as well. Then, does Mora hate blood and steel?’

[Oh no! No way! Rather, my brother would hate it more?]

Mora, who had been reading my heart so far, spoke out in a very bewildered voice.

It was a cry that echoed in my head, not my ears, so I had no choice but to get out of my thoughts. Being surprised is a bonus.

‘Is that so? I’m surprised. But what Luminus-sama hates is…’

[Don’t mind my brother! You just have to keep writing like you did until now. ah! Why not reveal not only the atrocities of Nazi Germany, but also the atrocities of other countries? Individuals fight for justice, but as a nation, you talk a lot, right?]

It’s disgusting that she’s trying to change her mind, but she has a point. Not only did the Holocaust have a huge impact, but the war crimes committed by the Soviet Union were not formidable.

Needless to say, Japan violated humanity, and even the United States has a case of Tuskegee syphilis, although it is not a war crime.

Above all else, ‘war’ destroys people completely by not being exhausted. Even the US military was broken by PTSD in some cases to justify crimes that they were unaware of.

As I emphasized before, I am not writing blood and steel to glorify war, but to show the horrors of war.

It is part of what made Hitler look like the main character. To shock you that I supported this demon.

‘You don’t have to worry about that. I have no intention of glorifying war.’

[Thank you so much. So do you want to pass quietly?]

‘Now that I have committed something, I have to take responsibility.’

From the beginning, I took the route in the direction of taking responsibility. If the war of independence breaks out if left as it is, Lina may fall.

Besides, we need to be more careful with this incident. The Great Depression is a bit daunting, but that’s what I did.

It is necessary to accelerate the industrial revolution to introduce the magic engine immediately.

‘Is this enough?’

[Are there going to be a disruption in the supply of the horsepower engine? It is difficult to make it yourself, so you have no choice but to get it from Machina. In addition, raw material-related jobs, including miners, will not find employment, but rather a job shortage.]

‘This sh*t. Oh, I’m sorry.’

there’s nothing going on When I apologized urgently, Mora smiled and said it was okay.

‘Anyway, can you help me collect the amount I want in a week? You said that even a regression is possible, so it’s not possible to slow down time.’

[Ummm… it is, but… You have to set aside a space where time flows slowly and stick to it. Besides, it’s a form that consumes your divine power, not us, so only you can enter.]

Is it a room of spirit and time? Except that it consumes my divine power, it is just like that if you listen to it.

‘Is the consumption of divine power too severe?]

[It’s not bad to slow the flow of time. Of course, it’s not a regression, so it’ll be faster if your divinity fills up. No need to eat, no need to sleep. It’s literally a place for mental training, but…]

‘I’ll be fine.’

It’s really necessary in the current situation. If that’s the case, you could even write an invasion of Poland within a week.

However, it seems that Mora is not very happy. She hinted at me for an opinion in a slightly vague tone.

[Is that okay? As I said before, time is a difficult field for even us to touch. It may be different from what you think.]

‘Can you come out?’

[You can come out when all the time you set is over. You can set the outside time and the inside time separately.]

Mora’s explanation continued one after another. When the time outside passes by a day, the time inside may pass by a week or a full moon. This is how I set it up the way I want it to.

However, there is a difference here as well. Assuming that a week flows inside, it is also possible to determine whether one day flows or two days flow outside.

It is said that the consumption of divine power is divided into extremes depending on the time difference between the two spaces.

‘Then how much time can I set for a day based on outside time?’

[3 years to hold it long?]

It’s much longer than expected. I shivered for a moment, but just in case I asked another question.

‘·······Then, how long ago can we do a regression?’

[It is one month from now. It’s not easy to look back in time. Even if you can make the flowing stream slow, it is difficult to flow backwards, right?]

I nodded my head at the clear analogy. Anyway, I can get help from Mora, all that’s left is to prepare.

[I might be able to fix that stupid corner a little bit by taking this opportunity.]

‘Me?’

[okay. you.]

‘··········?’

Should I just leave it alone? I’m already anxious

‘Oh right. Miss Mora. In case you don’t know, I have a third option. It is said that the serialization is completely suspended, and this is also …’

[If you don’t want to be hung on the cross and burned at the stake, just use it.]

‘yes.’

I can’t joke like that anymore. I crumpled and walked out of the chapel.

‘It’s like having two editors.’

The bad thing is that the editors are the gods who rule the world.

*****

[Is this true?]

A woman speaks as if blaming herself. She watched Isaac silently as he left with a relaxed mind.

I really doubted if this was the right thing to do. No matter how much it was for him, it was essentially a plan for God, that is, himself.

I don’t know if I had even said a little bit, but I didn’t say anything for shock therapy.

At this point, Isaac resents himself and may even be disappointed.

[Or did you just leave it alone? It’s going to be hard around here, but it’s okay if the child realizes the responsibility even later. As always, if we give advice and advice, it will be enough.]

A man is quietly talking next to Mora. She blinked her eyes at this and then turned her gaze to the man.

Luminus, the twin brother of Mora and the god of light and hope. Unlike Mora, he was of the opinion that Isaac should be left as it is.

[······I know.]

The goddess of darkness and rest gave a small answer. As if she had seen the previous murmur, she wondered if this was the right thing to do.

However, as the goddess of ‘peace’, she is in a situation that cannot be easily overcome. Moreover, as we saw the Machina Revolution and the Great Depression, it already shook the world.

As the shaking gradually becomes unstable, cracks will appear, and the cracks will remain in various places, becoming a huge fire and devouring the world.

As a woman in charge of ‘peace’, it is a problem that cannot be overlooked.

[Mora. Wars happen everywhere. And humankind will become more mature through that process. The child will also be alerted to it, even if it’s belatedly. There is no need to give torture.]

[Then let’s move on like this? Who do you like? There has been almost no war in the past 100 years, so I was very bored, right?]

At Luminus’ words, Mora shot him with a subtle anger. A reaction that she can’t even imagine for her usually playful.

Luminus remained silent in her anger. war and peace. It’s a very contradictory situation, but ironically, if there’s no one of the two, it’s meaningless.

If left as it is, Luminus will have more influence, and if it is the other way around, Mora’s influence will increase. And Isaac raised Mora’s hand.

[The more chaotic the world is, the better my brother is, but not me. I have an obligation. The duty to make the world peaceful.]

[Even if the child resents this? as you know······]

[know.]

Mora nervously cut off Luminus’ words. Then she looked at Isaac back in the dormitory.

[For now…]

Mora, who had been speechless for a moment, opened her mouth with a voice without any confidence.

[I have no choice but to hope it goes well.]

It wasn’t something a god who sees the future would say.
