Chapter 705 - A Confusing Past
-----
Takeru was a man from Earth, a typical Japanese young man enjoying his life, but in a whim, he ended being summoned by a strange elf, who also resulted being a reincarnated person. This elf had the dangerous ability to summon people through some sort of Gacha power, which made it all random, and he had to always spend gold coins to use it as well, making it quite complicated for him… And he was also quite the useless bastard. I never thought that the intimidating Great Demon of Summoning would be such a lazy and useless man, he just sit around and let his summon do it for him. I mean, that's what summoners do but come on, do some flashy magic at least, don't you have a mana core at least?!
Well, these were all memories of Takeru, apparently, and they told how he ended in this world and his first experience with the summoner great demon, this one bastard that had way too cocky of a personality. When he said those words about a contract, the memories ended… I felt it was a bit abrupt, I wanted to see more! But I was negated such a privilege, I had effectively watched too much now and if I wanted to continue, I would need to collect more of these pills… How annoying.
But from all I was able to gather, there is a lot of information, and perhaps Zero was right too, this guy was indeed not bad, I couldn't really detect any malice from Takeru, he was just scared and wanted to go back home, he seemed like a chill dude I would have some nice memories with if we were to become friends. This bastard elf seemed more like the villain here, but he was too stupid to be a villain, in fact he was also a lazy and useless guy overall, so he probably got carried by his summons and he stole all the fame later- well, not like he wasn't called a Demon at the end.
And lastly… he's the brother of the first ever Venerable, Oberon! For some weird fucking reason, the Great Demon of Summoning is the sibling, the brother of Oberon… I can't believe it, but its true. I wasn't able to gather much info regarding the black slimes, but apparently those guys are Miasma Beasts made out of Chaos Energy that solidifies into miasma and became slime-like monsters, but they're perhaps even more vicious and dangerous than actual slimes though. These monsters came from "Gates" or something that have begun to open around the world, where just… just chaos come out of it? I think? Just what's going on? I don't get it…
So in the past there was Chaos, yes, I do remember that there was Chaos, this chaotic energy that disrupts all other elements, space, time, and life, and it is like a poison, slowly destroying everything. The surviving gods… destroyed it and that's it, right? I do remember it being like that, and then the Great Demons came, created even more destruction and Oberon stomped them and managed to save the world, opening up a new future. That was it, right? Well, now with everything mixing up, it seems that this was not right.
First of all the chaos, Oberon, and also the gods and probably the demons are all happening at the same time. I am talking about the surviving gods, the other guys probably died already and formed the new world from the other realms fusing together. But the surviving gods… Are they around fighting the chaos? And if there was some chaos after the war and the realms fusing together, then where are these gates coming from? The chaos itself is forming gates to a dimension where more chaos is coming from but now in the form of intelligent monsters? Wow, this is quite a theory I came out with, but I cannot really imagine what else could it be.
And while this is happening, the Elven Kingdom of those times got the Elf that is Oberon fighting these monsters and then his brother, a summoner, summoning the Great Demons. But apparently, they're not the villains but the good guys, and it was thanks to their powers which are said to be the "great evils that they brought from another world", they managed to save the world, actually.
Meanwhile, and apparently, Oberon is trying to stop them from cleansing the chaos from the world, as it was said by Zero and then given as info from the elf to Takeru… This can only mean one thing… Is Oberon a bad guy?! No way! Or could it be? Well, I have to give it the benefit of the doubt, I must see more info to really confirm all of this as real or some defamation, but why else would he try to stop them from cleansing the chaos if he wasn't evil? And to boot, it was said he was somehow trying to "comprehend" the Chaos Element or something? Okay this guy is getting more and more suspicious every time I think more about him.
So Oberon… Was the big bad? But he's literally praised as Jesus by everybody, how come he is evil? I can't believe this plot twist… I really need more evidence than this to make my own conclusions. But for now, I better move over.
I opened my eyes and found myself in the dungeon once more. I looked at Zero and said: "Wow, what a load of shit that was, are you sure that guy ended sane after this?"
"Ah. So you saw it… Well, not exactly. My master was beyond sanity when everything ended…" He sighed. "He was really… He was tired, very tired, he wanted to rest and have a vacation for the rest of his life."
"O-Oh… Okay then…" I sighed. "Well, I guess that's it?"
I didn't even got any bonus stats or something, so were they just memories at the end? That's kind of boring…
