ALL NOVEL Chapter 383: Interlude 129/ Doll’s Will
???'s POV
Love, care, and emotion are all things that we "dolls" shouldn't have. Even though our Creator inserted knowledge into our minds to promote our acting.
-Follow the voice inside the head and do exactly like what you guys heard.
The creator, who gives us life, tells us her order.
-One day, the one who inherits my will appear here. Remember to perform well at that time.
The creator walked around and took a look at all of the "dolls" one by one. After a while, she arrived at my place.
-...
Creator gives me a weird glance and shakes her head.
-Hah...
She turns her back off me and speaks.
-The past that I want to forget...
My creator looks down and says with a voice lack of emotion.
-Those gods...How long do they think humanity remains as their playthings?
With a solemn voice, my creator continues her monologue.
-Maybe I am not too different from them. I created and used you guys for my sake.
I still don't understand what my Creator is talking about. As a doll who could only follow the script, I can't understand my Creator.
-Sorry...I know my apologies may be empty. But I can't do anything aside from that.
Why does she apologize to us? It's a natural thing for us to follow her order.
-But the end is near...If I successfully bring down those true gods from their throne, I will release you guys from this dungeon.
At that time, a voice calls out to my Creator.
-*****! Are you there, *****?
-Yeah, ***. I will finish soon.
Creator looks at us again and speaks out loud.
-I don't have much time.
Warm energy comes out from her hand and envelops us.
-The last fight is near. You are all my child that I create using my blood.
She glances at some dolls in the backline.
-Some of you may have to act like a bad guy and do a bad deed. But I hope you guys won't go the wrong way.
Then, she takes a glance at a few guys behind me.
-And those have a role of good guys, I want you guys to remain a good person even after everything.
Finally, she turns to me and the doll next to me.
-And you two...
-...
My creator laughs at herself and says.
-It's like having a kid by looking at you two. Though, you two have the most painful role in this. You must show the next generation how cruel those gods are. Show them the truth.
My creator looks us in the eyes and whispers lightly.
-Pass the message to them if seven of us fail in the last battle.
My creator turns away from us and says.
-To protect our freedom and our rights. Once everything is done, you guys are free to go. The dungeon will release you from this shackle and return everyone to circle and reincarnation.
My creator walks away from us.
-As for me...I wonder what would happen to me if I died in this battle. I have danced in their palm for my entire life already.
The world around starts to change the moment the Creator disappears. I appear inside a small hut with another adult doll. We are lying on the ground motionlessly.
Day keeps passing, and I never see my Creator coming back. Did she not make it? So, we only have a duty in the meantime. Wait for the next generation to appear to inherit her will.
...
Just lie there...and wait.
Wait...
I have to wait...
I have more than enough time to think about my creator. To understand every single word that she said to us. For some reason, I want to see her again.
...
But it's impossible...She had gone forever. According to the script, I should call the doll next to me by the name "mom." But I think the one that fits that name most is my creator...
Mom...I want to meet you.
I have to wait in this frozen until that person appears. Is that even possible? How long do I have to wait for that person?
...
I want to go out. I want to find my crea...mom. I want to see her. I could feel those happy memories she inserted inside my head. Can she take care of me as the mom figure in my head? But she is no longer alive.
...
No one ever comes here. I want to give up, but I can't...
...
The other dolls start to die...Their souls are still here, but they gave up their consciousness and killed their intelligence. Now they have become a doll in every sense.
...
Finally! The chosen one is here...The job I need to fulfil. The sole purpose in life. It's time to accomplish it.
