CHAPTER 182: CHAPTER 29 - ANOTHER GAME JUST BEGUN*

[ Author Note: This Chapter only published on Webnovel, please don’t upload it on another platform. ]

My eyes returned to a room filled with tables and dishes of food on them.

After playing a game that put hope, fate, and destiny at stake for an uncertain future, I won by an unexpected stroke of luck.

The Akashic Record, which is known for being stingy in providing assistance while the game is in progress, suddenly provided assistance to me.

I will consider it a gift to myself when reborn as a Weiss Guderian.

"I almost broke out in a cold sweat after losing once..." I muttered in a weak tone and leaned my back against the back of the chair I was sitting on.

The flow of time in front of me was still stopped, and it would take quite a long time before this stopped flow of time started moving again.

[ Maid Order: That’s a tense game to play, Master. ]

"Well, I will continue to roll the dice to win even if the result is loose, you know."

[ Maid Order: That’s the exciting part of my Master, always gamble with nothing to loose ]

[ Maid Order: You are the type of person who will not stop after suffering defeat and aims for victory by doing anything. ]

[ Maid Order: I’m just worried that the Akashic Record and the Akashic Record Keeper are aware of the exploit you’re using based on the machine logic that exists in this world. ]

[ Maid Order: Master... I’m sure you will think that below zero... there be a minus one, right? ]

"Hahaha... what did you say?"

"Of course there is."

[ Maid Order: Yup, I knew... it would turn out like that. After your first defeat, it seems the Akashic Record has already noticed the exploit you’re using, and coincidentally, it’s the same system as the Akashic Record uses to detect numbers below zero. ]

"That is common knowledge in this world."

"Even at freezing point at zero degrees Celsius, it can still increase and move away from zero degrees to minus degrees. If the Akashic Record knows this, it will actually benefit me, who will always gamble until I reach the number of fox girl tails I want."

[ Maid Order: That’s probably why the Akashic Records helped you after saying those words. I would have done the same if someone had forced me into such a relentless game. ]

"Well, the Akashic Record just doesn’t want the Akashic Record Keeper to play an long game to determine victory and defeat. So far, I’ve gained quite a bit of valuable information from the Akashic Record itself. This victory has been a great victory that should be celebrated!"

[ Maid Order: A great victory? ]

[ Maid Order: What does that mean, Master? ]

"Oh, you didn’t notice?"

[ Maid Order: I don’t even know what victory we’re experiencing right now. ]

"The victory we are experiencing right now is that every fox girl who forms a Master-Maid contract with me will have her tails increased to three. In addition, I also received other information that Divinity has not yet spread to Earth. That means... we need to enter the Tower of Fate on Earth and clear its eleventh floor."

[ Maid Order: Ah, Divinity, huh. ]

[ Maid Order: Isn’t it a troublesome thing that a large religion will do anything to spread their influence as a religion capable of using the power of Divinity? ]

"It’s just a side effect."

"Wouldn’t it be a pretty good thing when Divinity spread across Earth?"

[ Maid Order: My Master, to be honest... I have no idea what you have planned after Divinity spreads across Earth. ]

[ Maid Order: Please tell me about your brilliant plan... ]

My Maid Order ability seemed to be begging me about the plans I had made when Divinity had spread across the Earth.

I don’t have any grand plans about it.

If Divinity had spread to Earth, it would have allowed people from other worlds to use their own Divinity abilities and opened up new skills for people on Earth.

Unlike other worlds that have distinct Gods or Goddesses, Earth has no such singularity. There are only religions with fanatical followers who are willing to do anything in their religions.

With such social conditions, I can guarantee that there will be a major religious war over the power of Divinity. To prevent that, the best way is to avoid clearing the eleventh floor.

"Hmm..." Suddenly, I felt something was odd after thinking about this.

"I think, I’m starting to understand something now..."

"Is this the reason?" I continued muttering as I thought about this even more deeply.

[ Maid Order: Is there a problem, Master? ]

"Yes, I just realized something about this Divinity."

"Did you know that the Tower of Fate on Earth stops at the tenth floor?"

[ Maid Order: The tenth floor? Why is it so much smaller compared to the Tower of Fate in our world, which has already reached the ninetieth floor? ]

"That’s what confuses me..."

"I think some people already know that clearing the eleventh floor will grant Divinity abilities on Earth. That’s why the Akashic Record limits my Maid Order’s abilities to SSS++ level only, and it’s making me sick," I said grumblingly.

[ Maid Order: If my Master think about it like this, there’s some trouble inside it. ]

[ Maid Order: Do the people who know this think that clearing the eleventh floor will throw the Earth into chaos? ]

[ Maid Order: Divinity abilities will be stronger if the user has great devotion to the thing they worship, right? ]

"You need to know, religious conflicts in our world alone have separated the kingdom system from the empire system. They have adopted different religious systems as well. With the rapidly spreading Divinity ability, is the conflict on Earth merely limited to political interests?"

"Sooner or later, it will escalate into endless religious conflict."

[ Maid Order: My Master... you’re used to this kind of conflict, right? ]

[ Maid Order: What’s wrong with completing the eleventh floor? ]

[ Maid Order: In the end... Your Maids will actually think of you as a Divinity figure who needs to be worshipped and served like a God. ]

"My Maids will become fanatics when that time comes."

[ Maid Order: Fufufu... is my great Master afraid about that? ]

"It’s not just about being afraid..."

"I just don’t want to experience the same thing twice..."

Bzzttt...

Bzzttt...

[ Author Note: Remember to read this on Webnovel! ]

My body suddenly felt goosebumps as memories of my past flooded into my mind. Memories of the Great Kingdom and the Great Empire, attempting to worship me as a Master, standing alongside a Goddess who had become a religious symbol.

"Fanaticism... I don’t want to feel that way anymore."

The moment I said these words, the stopped flow of time began to flow again.

"M-Master?"

When time had returned to normal, I heard a voice calling from Princess Amagi, who seemed to be sniffing my body.

Sniff...

Sniff...

"Eh, so weird..."

"Why do I smell another woman’s scent mixed with my Master?" Princess Amagi muttered as she continued sniffing my body like a curious fox.

Princess Amagi’s nine tails wriggled as if they were searching for the source of the scent she had smelled earlier.

"What are you doing?"

"Shouldn’t you know that I’ve been to all kinds of shops before coming to this place?"

Sniff...

Sniff...

Princess Amagi was still sniffing me like a fox trying to find the source of the smell that was bothering her nose.

"This is different... this other woman’s scent is still fresh... It’s as if my Master just came back from meeting another woman," said Princess Amagi as she brought her nine fox tails closer to hug my body.

"I don’t like this strong smell of other women."

"Please allow me to erase the scent of this disgusting woman, Master Weiss."

Without waiting for my consent, Princess Amagi immediately embraced me with her nine warm, soft fox tails. I accepted her warm embrace, allowing my body to be covered in her soft, well-groomed hair.

[ Maid Order: Master, this fox girl’s nose is so sharp that she can smell the Akashic Record Keeper. ]

[ Maid Order: You won’t be able to lie to her after meeting another woman, Master. ]

[ Maid Order: Are you sure about making her as your Maid? ]

The system screen of my Maid Order ability showed its doubts in this matter.

A fox girl’s ability as a professional sniffer scent is undeniable. Princess Amagi’s ability to smell the Akashic Record Keeper’s scent mixed with mine is a testament to her extraordinary abilities.

Sniff...

Sniff...

The fox’s tail that was hugging my body tightly suddenly stopped after smelling another scent from the clothes I was wearing.

"Huh?"

"Why is there another man’s scent here?" With a puzzled expression, Princess Amagi continued her activity of sniffing my body odor and ignored the friendly conversation she was currently having.

Ashitaka seemed to want to say something to Princess Amagi, but was hindered by her position, not wanting to disturb the intimate situation that was currently happening.

"Princess Amagi..." Ashitaka tried to muster up the courage to speak about what was happening right now.

"Please refrain from engaging in intimate behavior with another man who already has a Maid. Formally, we have not yet formed a Master-Maid contract with Master Weiss. Please restrain yourself for a while, Princess Amagi," Ashitaka said to warn Princess Amagi of this.

"I don’t want to... In the end... Master Weiss will be my Master, right?" replied Princess Amagi while tightening her nine fox tails that were hugging my body.

Griittt...

With her tight fox tail hug, I could feel the sharp gaze coming from Momoka, who was trying to stay calm in this situation.

From the sharp look in her eyes, I could hear her whisper, "Finish your business with the Dungeon Master now!"

I replied with a look in my eyes that said, "If I could, I would have finished my business a long time ago!"

It seems that Momoka feels uncomfortable with the group of nine-tailed fox girls in front of her.

"Well, that’s true. In the end... I will be your Master," I said while glancing at Princess Amagi and Ashitaka.

"I have seen your hard work and effort to become a Maid, Princess Amagi."

"That said, I’m quite satisfied with your performance. However... I’m going to tell this important thing to all the fox girls in this room."

My words sounded serious and made Princess Amagi loosen her nine fox tails that were hugging my body.

"M-Master Weiss, is there something wrong with the service I have provided?" Princess Amagi asked with a look of guilt on her face.

"The service you performed was correct, Princess Amagi."

"Then... what important thing are you going to say, Master Weiss?" Princess Amagi continued, making all the nine-tailed fox girls in front of me look panicked.

I immediately stood up from my sitting position and pulled Princess Amagi’s hand.

"The Master-Maid Contract that I will be making with the fox girl will be different than usual," I said while pulling Princess Amagi’s hand to walk to the center of the room.

By pouring some of my magic energy into Princess Amagi, I began to show her Pre-condition of body changes after making a Master-Maid contract with me.

"It’s different from the usual Master-Maid contract. Every fox girl who formed a Master-Maid contract with me will receive three additional fox tails. That means... You will no longer be a nine-tailed fox girl, Princess Amagi."

"Do you want to leave your nine-tailed fox girl race and become a twelve-tailed fox girl race?" I asked Princess Amagi while triggering the Pre-condition effect of her body that would become a twelve-tailed fox girl.

Swiirrll...

Swiirrll...

Swiirrll...

Through my magical energy that brought out the Preconditioning effect on her body, I could see a twelve-tailed fox girl.

"COUGH! COUGH!"

"WHAT THE HELL?!"

Momoka looked panicked by this and coughed after hearing what I said.

"HAS YOUR MAID ORDER’S ABILITIES REACHED THE STAGE OF RACE EVOLUTION, WEISS!" Momoka shouted with her face bulging and in disbelief.

"Momoka... please be quiet for a moment. I’m being serious right now."

"HOW CAN I STAY SILENT FOR A MOMENT AFTER HEARING THAT, WEISS!"
