Answers to Questions You've Never Asked: Explaining the 'What If' in Science, Geography and the Absurd
- Joseph Pisenti
Cynisca-obaachan can’t kill the Demon King if all those spiders come after her. I have to distract them.
But I can’t expose myself. The Dungeon Master of the spiders will realize that my slimes aren’t mindlessly taking up space.
So if I make something else attack and draw the spiders, I’ll be safe and Obaachan can kill their Demon King.
[It’s great that slimes have a mimicry ability, huh Satou-chan?]
I’ve just attacked the Goblins. Although they didn’t attack Mesop, they have girls here that need immediate attention.
Once the goblins were asleep, suffocating them wasn’t hard. My slimes ate them and are now mimicking them naturally.
They also create offshoots of themselves and the girls so that the headcount remains the same. I must extract the girls without raising suspicion.
Fortunately, these girls were closer to the orcs that had attacked mesop so my escort would not be hard. I’ve assigned more than enough Slime Kings to escort the girls and sacrifice themselves if need be.
[You’re plan so perfect, it’s dull.]
If I let things go your way, I’d never forgive myself. You devil.
[Ouch]
Don’t. You’re supposed to be Kami: the creator of this world and its people.
And yet you side with the demons.
[Do you call a god “God” because he sides with you? What’s so special about humans?]
They’re people! What do you want from them?
[Those so called demons are people as well. In fact, why do you call them demons?]
Because they eat and abuse those weaker than them. They prey on us.
[And I made them in that image. And you in that image as well, Hana-chan.]
I never asked for this! I am human!
[And yet, humans attacked you the moment they laid eyes on you.
[If not for my broadcasting of your fear to Jin, you would have had to make tough choice in a hard place
[To kill another human-]
NEVER!!
[Humans do it to each other, it’s nothing special. Choosing to live and protect yourself is totally natural.
[But I have another question: What would you do if God made it natural for you to be hunted?
[You asked me why I don’t side with your ‘Humans’. It’s because they are not the masters of this dominion.
… What?
[I made the Bless-ed and chose them to rule these lands, however they see fit.]
Bless-ed?
[Ah, you slander them as demons with a king and dungeon master and what not; but no. They were made by god, not the devil: they are humans.]
……
[? Hana-chan? Are you okay?
[Do you have a headache-]
I’ll kill you. What have you been saying?
Kami doesn’t make demons? We’re the bad guys?
[No no, I never said that. I said that I’m on their side.]
That’s the same thing! “God would never abandon us; he was never with us!”
Who would accept that!!
[Geez, you’re so different from Minoa. She gladly accept the status quo]
WHO.
[This “Demon King” you’re looking for. I made her especially different from the rest.
[And she can’t wait to meet you. So, Hana-chan: When God stands against you, what do you do?]
