I Translated the Necronomicon

21. One and All, All and One.

[But does it really matter if it’s a manipulation or not?]

-The management bureau is controlling a planet (fact)

-The management bureau is cooperating with Manma-jeon (verified by on-site special envoy, a novice investor)

-Confirmed the deployment of speculative boundaries on the controlled planet (Shin-bungi’s photo)

-Even if it’s a manipulation or not, what’s the big deal, when everything has actually been revealed, whether it’s a forced plot or not!

-Is that so…? (Buying theme stocks again)

-Come to think of it, it does seem like that… (Waiting after short profit-taking)

-Yeah, listening to it, it sounds right. (Switching to long 100 times.)

As Dike controlled his boiling emotions and made the decision to cut losses, the stocks started to rise…

“Argh!”

Quickly tried to repurchase, but…

[But isn’t it a bit fishy? It’s a little suspicious;;]

Falls apart.

“S-Sell it!”

[But the photo is a perfect shot, hahahaha, it’s a joint effort to copy the money x2, right~]

Comes up.

“T-Throw it away!”

The points of Dike, melting away amidst the coming and going of tick-tocks.

A miraculous trading method that sells at the crown and buys at the sole, leaving Dike with nothing but about 0.1 points of remaining power.

Since it started with just 1 point, it ended that way, if more points had been accumulated, the next week’s rental power payment at the penthouse would have collapsed into a mess.

…Surely chased away by a truck.

As Dike struggles to hold onto his aching insides and half-crawls into the living room, Adikia is wearing a smile of victory.

The result of riding the flow led by Yoo Da-hee, approached with a light heart that it wouldn’t matter even if everything was lost, the 5 points worth of power invested returns with a whopping 40 points.

“Ohohohoho!”

This is indeed his ability…!

Adikia’s gaze falls on Dike, who is crawling on the floor, lips tightly clenched.

A return that is utterly miserable, unlike the confident expression heading towards the corner.

Looking at Dike, whose face is contorted with defeat, the result is crystal clear without even having to be stated.

“Ugh…!”

Even if the golden apple was snatched away from Dike, everything else will be in his possession…!

Adikia looks at Yoo Da-hee with a self-assured expression.

Wrapped in controversy and with a slight misunderstanding… but he was not a bad contractor.

No, he was more than that, an outstanding contractor overflowing with qualifications…!

What Deke had said about SSR was certainly not a lie, his luck was ridiculously good, coming from the most unexpected places…

Even though it was U.R.F, the blow capable of shattering planets was nothing short of astonishing.

So, there was no reason for Adikia not to send the love call that other deities were still fiercely sending.

In his heart, he wanted to forcibly take it away, but just like with Malcolm, it was unlikely to work.

Moreover, at that time, thinking back to the events in the arena, what Yudahee disliked the most was finding pleasure in looking down on others.

He undoubtedly harbored a strong hatred for Adikia, the goddess herself, enough to swing an axe or a parasu.

So, restraint was necessary.

Instead, he would approach her as a fellow traveler…!

Taking off the traveler’s coat was not a strong wind but a warm sunshine!

He gently approached Yudahee, who was earnestly gazing at the gallery window of the deities, and placed his hand on her shoulder.

“Do you happen to have a special reason for contracting with Deke?”

“Huh? Not really? Strictly speaking, it wasn’t a normal contract, but more like we were the ones being contracted.”

Didn’t he smash a truck on the day he returned, even unknowingly stamped a joint guarantor contract and sent it to the Dimensional Credit Vault for compulsory participation and victory in the arena…

In military terms, he was a disaster beyond a discharged soldier, more like a natural disaster. A divine disaster.

“Unni, I don’t like that, why are you looking at me like that!” Shouting, she aimed her gun from 1 o’clock to 12 o’clock and fired, just like the incident when she shouted, “Why are you opening your eyes like that!”

Yudahee standing in that crossfire was simply unlucky, given the circumstances.

Of course, only now Yudahee had designated herself as a large shield to block the deities clinging to her with Deke’s leash.

In front of her, she had her own plans to deal with other deities, provoking them if necessary, with Deke as a shield, and even using a deity who had tied Deke as a shield.

The goddess still prevailed.

Having heard Yudahee’s story, Adikia extended her hand with a subtle smile.

Yudahee had no choice but to face the inevitable conditions she presented.

“How about making a contract with me, then?”

“No! This cat burglar—!”

Crreeaak…!

Dikey, already sensitive due to having lost a contractee once, stood in front of Yudahee.

She had been too careless, entangled in absurd chatter, thinking she wouldn’t fall victim again.

But her opponent this time was Amco, the cat girl who had snatched away her previous contractee…!

Given that there was no law preventing it from happening again, Dikey’s crisis detection radar soared to its highest level.

Warning-warning-warning-warning-!

“If you make a contract with me, I can cancel the joint guarantee for the debt forcibly imposed by Dikey.”

“Well, I’ve already sent the original contract to the Interdimensional Credit Vault! How could you possibly undo that?”

Dikey shouted as if there was no way, but Adikia smiled as if pitying her.

“Let’s see… The current manager of the Interdimensional Credit Vault Goddess Management Department, who is she? From the same galaxy as me, right? Moreover, in the past, I influenced her personnel evaluation by providing advice and assistance related to galaxy development. Can’t she do at least this for me?”

Adikia, with a smiling face, gently pushed Dikey’s forehead with her index finger, continuing to speak.

“It’s obvious that a contract forcibly made without the other party’s consent is grounds for cancellation, right?”

“Ugh…!”

Dikey had nothing to say.

“If you make a contract with me… I’ll provide these benefits as well.”

The holographic display revealed none other than the accursed tactical weapon of the divine gallery…

[Oral (九綱), Polarization (偏光), Raven and Declaration (声明), Fissure of Concealment…. 200% H-Type…!]

– HAL-CAS!

“Ah, no! I displayed it incorrectly!”

Pressed the wrong button.

Though there was a glance that said, “Did you see that…?” it quickly passed by….

Really, truly not…!

Adikia urgently lowered the window, extending what she originally intended to display with a flushed face.

The maximum treasures a goddess could offer.

Unlike Dike, a poor man with financial sense approaching zero, Adikia’s planetary system was akin to Saudi Arabia on Earth…. A bit lower, but still a place with a genetic makeup similar to Earth.

A resource planet among the divine, possessing a large quantity of rare metals, and among them, Oryhalcon was the main export.

The precious item Yudahee currently possessed, made of Oryhalcon…!

Adikia, offering items coveted even by the divine, was confident that he would inevitably grasp his hand.

hahahaha… Let the poor goddess just suck her thumb there…!

Watching Dike nervously biting her nails, it felt like the anger built up until now was dissipating.

“This is just a personal favor to some extent… Normally, to recover the investment cost, I would throw the contractor into the arena, but it’s different with these divine beings. I don’t mind going out and losing, coming back has no effect at all.”

“Oh.”

Yudahee was more reassuring than the treasures.

Originally, his intention to use Dike as a shield was for his own tranquility.

The arena was one of the interfering elements, but he said it didn’t matter.

“Instead, only once a year, clash with the arena with all your might, whenever I desire.”

“Is that really all?”

“Yeah, that’s all.”

A composition incredibly free, unlike Dike who struggles fiercely to repay debts…!

A truly unparalleled freelance contract that allows anything else!

Now, join hands! Grab my hand, Yudahee!

Adikia extended her hand with a smile of victory, but…

…Yudahee didn’t take that hand.

Simultaneously with extending the hand, his expression seemed incredibly hesitant, as if filled with indecision.

And then… he began uttering incomprehensible words.

“God-kyeong… glasses…? No… hatred-kyeong… damn-kyeong… dick-kyeong… but why… does this side make sense here…”

Yudahee, uttering such words, had his eyes half-open, looking somewhere in the past.

—–

Did you hit Old One again, Yudahee?

What happens if you hit him?

Hurting the one who hurts you, what remains for you?

Yudahee, you… bastard-

“Ah, sh*t, this guy keeps making me embarrassed.”

Dooly-Yudahee remained.

“What? Is that half-penny not my child? Is this a human or a beast? Ah, Great Old One! Great! Great! Very impressive!”

Yudahee struck the head of the bald Ktuga with all the force she could muster.

[Argh! You damn bastard!]

The living flame, Ktuga, grumbled in dissatisfaction as he writhed, but well, what could be done.

On this side was the invincible Necronomicon, Yudahee.

If you’re upset, go read the Necronomicon translation and come back after a thorough understanding.

The bald flame head of Ktuga was smacked soundly – a resounding hit, but strangely, Ktuga couldn’t make any move.

Yudahee was the existence that all external beings, including herself, had hoped for.

The interpreter and guide of all foreign news, of the ancient ones.

The decree handed down from ‘our dull father’ prohibited Yudahee, a visitor from another realm, from receiving even a tiny bit of harm, leading to the current situation.

Like a dog chasing a chicken, Ktuga just looked at the roof, swallowing his frustration at the inevitable fact, and left his place.

Yudahee began to shout jeers at him as if to say, “Listen to this.”

“Woo- garbage- a garbage child trying to abandon my child- woo- you’re not even worthy of being a parent-“

The one who stopped Yudahee’s actions of throwing all kinds of jeers was his teacher, who had approached from behind unnoticed.

With white hair perfectly fitting Yudahee’s ideal, large breasts, and a hat, the appearance of a woman was reversed, and when the foreigner smiled –

“Ugh, my head…!”

Yudahee wrapped her head again.

It seemed that she couldn’t quite adapt to what happened the last time she lightly touched her head.

“I understand what’s going on, but… how about enduring instead of hitting?”

Saying so, the teacher’s slender fingers brushed past Yudahee’s ear with a teasing sound, and she shrank, making a cute moaning sound.

“There will be a lot to endure from now on, you know.”

“No, there’s something else you must endure…”

Uttering a protest with a pout, Yudahee looked at the mentor. The mentor grinned for a moment and then explained.

“For example… even if the blond, long-haired goddess from Earth imposes a debt of 500 billion on you after returning, you must endure and wait patiently.”

“Uh… that’s oddly specific…?”

What on earth was he talking about?

Yudahee’s mentor was not an ordinary outsider.

To begin with, could an outsider be called ordinary?

He simply wanted to be called YOG, and despite teaching Yudahee the usage of Necronomicon, he was truly eccentric. His true identity was a presence that even outsiders feared and revered.

The entirety that is one, and the one that is entirety.

A gateway transcending all dimensions, itself the key and guardian.

Past, present, and future observer.

Vice King.

Lurker at the Threshold.

Yog-Sothoth.

When such a mentor said something… it was no different from it being destined to happen…!

The future…! Did he observe the future!

“Do you know something…? Going back to Earth…? If you know that much, huh? Mentor! Mentor! You! Damn outsider! What do you know?! Speak! Speak!”

Yudahee screamed in frustration, causing a commotion, but Yog-Sothoth wasn’t the type to quietly accept it.

“Oh, I guess I shouldn’t talk about this. Well, let’s just pretend it never happened~”

As his fingertips started to ripple and transform into tentacles, Yudahee, sensing something strange, awkwardly took a step back, starting to retreat.

Even if the brain cannot retain memories, the fear of forced memory erasure and common sense distortion lingering in the flesh itself…!

Trying to avoid it, but is there really a way to escape?

It’s an unjust result by nature.

“Geeek-“

As the entire body begins to be covered by tentacles and writhes for a moment… something falls to the floor with a thud.

There, there is only a single hamster licking the floor with memories truly physically erased.

“Hmm~”

As expected, Yogg grinned and led Yudahee crawling on the floor, offering a knee pillow.

It would take some time for her to come back to her senses, and although Yudahee fiercely licked her legs, well, it wasn’t bad.

Ticklish, this kind of light skinship is permissible.

Meanwhile, Yogg placed his hand on Yudahee’s head, peeking into a distant future by lifting the curtain.

A very distant future. After Yudahee returns to Earth… experiencing the events… the future where Adikia is extending a hand.

If there is no intervention, at this moment Yudahee would certainly take Adikia’s hand…

“Then it wouldn’t be fun, right?”

So Yogg decided to indulge in a little whim.

The future where Yudahee enjoys a comfortable life… cutting off that entire time period…

*Gulp*

He swallowed it whole.

The fear that the possibilities of the future that could have unfolded disappear into the abyss of foreign matter swept around.

But Yogsotos is unfazed, casually wiping his mouth and just brushing aside Yudahee’s hair.

Refusing that offer, and being plagued by all sorts of events, seemed to give her amusement.

She planted a very subtle hint in Yudahee’s mind so that she could interfere in the future.

A hint to refuse Adikia’s hand.

And—

A very subtle hint that she must never leave the side of that goddess.

The mischievous outsider seemed to smile with an unknown laughter.
