"The World's Will?" Saraya's face showed confusion; she didn't understand what Rika was saying.
However, Vuni and Tsuraguki were different; they clearly understood what Rika was saying. Information about this world as well as about other players was inserted into their memories by the system when they were summoned to this place by Hikaru.
As for the information about the world's will, Vuni and Tsuraguki both knew about it. After all, they were both powerful beings in the past. Although Vuni's past remained a mystery, in the past Tsuraguki used to travel the vast universe.
which signified that she had escaped from her world and was freed from the control of the so-called Will of the World.
Vuni explained to Saraya: "Every living thing has a soul; things like trees, grass, or stones that last for thousands or hundreds of thousands of years will also have souls." The world has existed for more than a few billion years, so the world also has a soul. More specifically, the soul of the world was one of the first things to appear. The world's soul is called the world's will.
"The will of the world helps keep the world balanced and allows it to move forward. In other words, it is a matter of procreation. My fairy dragon race has an extremely low reproduction rate, as it takes about 100–200 thousand years to give birth to an individual. However, humans are very fertile, and a human woman can give birth to 5–10 children over the course of their 100–200-year life span."
"So, just imagine that the Fairy Dragon race had the same fertility as humans?"
Saraya was not stupid, and she immediately realized what would happen.
Vuni continued: "The Fairy Dragon race has tremendous power and lives for tens of millions of years. If the fertility of the Fairy Dragon race was the same as that of the human race, then this world would belong to the Fairy Dragon race. "No, at some point this world will be destroyed by the Fairy Dragon race because of our numbers and strength."
"Of course, there are many other rules." In short, that is the balance that the world's will maintains. "It's trying to make the world run in the best possible way."
Saraya immediately understood what Vuni was saying. She continued: "So what is a child of the world's will?" "Why did the child of the world's will appear?"
Vuni explained: "Although the world's will can maintain the balance of the world, it cannot directly do everything. For example, if a demon king appears and wants to destroy the world, the world's will cannot use lightning to immediately kill that demon king."
"The only thing it can do is create a child of the world's will, or, in other words, a hero. The hero will be protected by the will of the world, and he will receive a lot of luck to grow and be able to kill the demon king."
"This is also what is happening now. The players in this world were not brought here by the will of the world but by someone else, and the players that suddenly appeared would damage and disrupt the rules of this world. To be more precise, the players are like pathogens that are slowly killing this world."
"To fight an epidemic, medicine is needed, and the child of the world's will is the cure."
Saraya frowned and continued: "Then we just need to find him and destroy him now; why worry so much?"
Tsuraguki sighed and said: "It's true that the succubus is a race at the bottom of the food chain that doesn't know how to use their brains."
Saraya gritted her teeth, as she felt overly humiliated.
Vuni also sighed and explained: "Even though Tsuraguki's words were a bit excessive, that's not what she meant. If things were that easy, the story of heroes wouldn't exist."
Saraya nodded upon hearing this.
Vuni then continued: "That person is protected by the will of the world; even if we find that person and kill him now, he will get lucky and escape. Not only that, if he is in danger, he can also increase his strength. It would feel like he was taking a stimulant."
Saraya frowned and said: "Then how do we kill him? Are we just going to watch him slowly get stronger, then come and kill Master?"
At this, Rika spoke up: "Of course we will not sit idly by and watch the child of the world's will develop. That's why I created this space where people can meet and support each other."
Tsuraguki asked: "How are you going to help Master? You should know that the will of the world is not easily defeated. "Even if he is defeated, we cannot kill him."
Rika smiled and said: "Of course I have a way, and that is to weaken the power of the World Will that protects him."
"Hm? ""Be a little more specific." Tsuraguki said.
Rika replied, "The power of the world's will makes him luckier, and this enables him to get help from many people; he would also possess a lot of luck when searching for treasures." "What if the people he met and the treasures he found were arranged by us?"
Tsuraguki immediately understood what Rika meant; she said, "I mean, if everything that helps the child of the world's will develop was arranged by us, then we can easily control him, right?"
Rika smiled, but she did not speak. However, everyone here understood what she wanted to do.
"So, what should we do?" Saraya asked, and she felt extremely excited. Saraya knew that facing a child of the world's will would be extremely dangerous, but she wanted to show her master that she wasn't useless.
Rika said: "Currently, the Master will go to the Dark-Elf Kingdom to attend the celebration of the reign of the Dark-Elf Queen. At that time, hmmm... The child of the world will also appear there. He is Duraxi, the prince of the kingdom of Catheryne. However, Vuni is on a mission to find more inhabitants for the Master's domain, so she is unable to return immediately. Therefore, Master will accompany Anno to the Dark-elf Kingdom alone.
Tsuraguki frowned and said: "I'll go with Master."
Rika shook her head. "You can't just behave as you like. Master needs someone to protect his territory, so Master definitely won't let you follow him."
Tsuraguki shouted, "If I don't follow him, who will protect him if he is in danger? Besides, you just said that the child of the world's will will also appear in the Dark-Elf Kingdom, which means that Master is in danger."
Rika sighed and said, "Tsuraguki, you should calm down." If there is danger, I will warn the master immediately. However, the current child of the world's will is not strong enough to endanger the master.
Tsuraguki stared at Rika, then took a deep breath and tried to calm down; then she said, "Good! I believe you. "However, if Master's life is threatened, I will tear you to pieces."
Tsuraguki's words carried killing intent; however, Rika smiled and said, "Of course." I said it from the beginning: "If Master dies, I can't exist either."
Rika continued, "This is a space I created; you guys can come to this place at any time to discuss anything. Besides, all of you can talk to me about your thoughts by just calling my name. I will send specific tasks and information to everyone later. If nothing else, the meeting ends here."
After hearing Rik's words, Tsuraguki glanced at Rika, then at Vuni and Saraya, and then disappeared.
Saraya looked at Rika and wanted to say something, but in the end, she didn't speak and left.
Vuni looked at Rika and said, "You have worked hard."
Rika smiled: "It's okay; it's all for Master's sake, even if it's more difficult than I can bear."
Vuni suddenly sighed and said, "Sorry, I hope it won't happen again."
Rika tilted her head to look at Vuni and asked, "Why apologize?" It's not your fault; don't blame yourself. "Right now, we're trying to control everything; let's do our best."
Suddenly, Vuni's eyes were filled with tears. However, Vuni quickly turned her face away and then disappeared.
Upon seeing this, Rika sighed and mumbled, "Hopefully everything will be fine."
…
At this moment, Hikaru sat on the bed, and next to him was Anno. Anno was still holding on to his hand tightly and was even trying to squeeze his arm between her two soft mountains.
The bed that Hikaru was sitting on was also Anno's bed. Anno's scent and the fact that the two of them were sitting on the bed made it a little difficult for him to contain himself.
Hikaru hurriedly opened the personal information panel to see the reward after winning this event.
On the bulletin board, there was a notification coming from the system that Hikaru hadn't read yet; he knew what it was but still opened it.
[Ding! You are the winner of this battle event. You have received a reward of: 10 random cards; 1 map to any mineral mine; and 1 monster matching gear card.]
…
Hikaru looked at the information about the system's reward and was overjoyed. He was worried about the resource problem, but now a map leading to a resource mine appeared. Even though he didn't know what that resource mine was, it was still good news nonetheless. Any resource I could mine was precious to Him at this moment.
Next, the equipment card that he received was suitable for any monster that he had summoned before.
Hikaru decided to open the 10 random cards first.
[Ding! You received an N monster card.].
[Ding! You received an R skill card.
[Ding! You received…]
Hikaru clutched his forehead and felt so unlucky that he wanted to cry because the 10 cards he opened were useless. Hikaru used his mind to communicate with Rika: "Are there any cards with high potential?"
[No, Master. All of them are useless.]
When Hikaru heard this, he glanced at Anno, who was holding his arm, and thought in his heart: "Could this bad luck be coming from Anno?"
