When they transferred to the zombie house, Ryoichi immediately began to complain.

"I had various buildings deployed in this area, but they've all disappeared."

"I disposed of them because they were in the way."

"Disposed of them? Do you know how much trouble I went through to summon them from Earth?"

"Do you even understand the significance of summoning from Earth?"

"Do you understand the impact of summoning people from Japan in the past to the present?"

"Oh, that's not a problem. My father was a Japanese historian, and our house has a tremendous amount of data. I've been reading it since I was a kid. There was an unresolved missing person case in the data from Japanese history. I used that. I wouldn't summon anyone without knowing anything. If my ancestors were there, there would be no turning back."

"So, you're the culprit of that missing person case. Why did you summon people from modern times?"

"It's not a big deal. Earth's population has apparently exceeded six billion people, so summoning a few hundred from there shouldn't be a problem."

This guy is completely crazy! He kills the summoned people and plays with them in his own game. He has no guilt for ruining the lives of people from the past or a few hundred people from the present. At this point, rehabilitation is impossible.

"I have one question. You're one of the members summoned 500 years ago, right? Why didn't you return to Japan?"

"That's obvious. There's nothing interesting there. It's nauseating to think about going back and starting the usual mundane life again. Well, I think that hero Kazuichi and saint Akemi probably fell in love and went back and got married. I thought it was more interesting to stay here. It was fun to think that my races became gods and they rolled around in the palm of my hand. I've had enough of inter-world wars, so I played around in one country. Well, from another perspective, it's probably peaceful."

Listening to this conversation is becoming unbearable.

"God race. So, you seem to be on good terms with Sphere and Saria."

"Yeah, those two. Sphere is a good goddess, but just an idiot. I trusted Saria completely, so... well, I still don't know about Sphere and Saria's relationship, and I don't care."

"You don't know? You should find out!"

"You think Saria might be using me?"

"Well, she probably did use you. But it's because our plans aligned. Thanks to Saria, I became a god."

So, Saria is a higher being than Ryoichi.

"From what I can tell, there are probably others besides you who are being used by Saria, right?"

"Yeah. The only ones I know of are Sae and Tsutomu."

"Sae and Tsutomu? Members summoned 500 years ago?"

"Yeah, that's right. They cooperated with Saria for a while, but there was a difference in opinions. I heard they had a falling out. I don't know where they are now."

Sae and Tsutomu. If the race was still maintaining the gods, there's a chance they're still alive.

"Your and Saria's goal is just to play around. You want to see how people and evil tribe will react by manipulating Spheretalia from above."

"Hahaha, that's right! We're gods, so we can do whatever we want. Sphere was in the way, so we got rid of her. We manage the system, manipulate it without being noticed, occasionally causing serious errors for Sphere to fix. By repeating that, her power gradually weakened and her mind became unstable. I thought about killing her, but she quit her job. Now, she's gone from Spheretalia and has run away to another world. Because of that, we can't touch her anymore."

Oh, she ran away to another world. She wasn't a bad god, but she trusted too much in those around her. Saria, Ryoichi, and the others used and expelled Sphere. And now, they're freely manipulating Spheretalia

"Hey, can you tell me how to get to the management world?”

“Sorry, I don't know either. We can only go there through transfer, and I have no idea about the coordinates."

This guy is useless. Is playing in this world enough?

"Hey, can you really trust me to tell me such important information?”

“It's fine. You're going to die here anyway."

I wonder if he haven't realized yet that he is already falling into my trap.

"Hey, even though you have no power left, you're still going to fight?”

“Huh? What are you talking about? Are you afraid of my power?"

"Why don't you use that power?”

“Fine. Die, 'Railgun'!"

clack

"What's wrong, 'Railgun'! Why can't I use magic?"

Of course, you can't. I've absorbed all the power you have, except for your level. Under the influence of my unique skill, I can do anything here. As soon as you entered here, I absorbed your power and copied all the information you had into my status. If you ask me, I'll make you confess to everything.

"It's useless. You're just Ryoichi Suzumi, a mere human, not a god or anything else. You became that way as soon as you entered this zombie house. By the way, no one will come to help you, and even Saria can't detect you."

"That's ridiculous! It can't be possible unless you're a god."

Oh, this person only detected my presence, but doesn't know that I am a malevolent god. He is a foolish. Analyze your enemies before you come.

"But, it's possible. Check your status and see for yourself."

Ryoichi checked his status and his expression turned pale.

"I'm...back to being a human. That's ridiculous! You can't do that once you've changed your race. This must be an illusion!"

In a way, it is an illusion. You'll return to your original form when you return to the outside world. However, it's true that you can't change back once you've changed your race. Thank you for the valuable information.

"If you use the system, it'll be fine."

"Huh, this isn't a game. Once you change your race, your soul itself changes. The changed soul can never go back again."

"I see. It would be too convenient if you could just change back to being human by manipulating the management system. If that were possible, Saria and the others would have played even more. In that case, Sphere that could create such a system would have been a higher existence than Saria, but it was weakened by Saria and Suzumi's actions and escaped to another world in depression, with her mind going crazy. However, perhaps out of guilt, she left some kind of message in the ruins."

"I see, I see. Oh, by the way, I think you already know this, but you can never escape from the Zombie House or this space again."

"What did you say!"

"Think a little, will you? A mere human with no skills or magic can't possibly escape from here. Think about what you've done so far until you starve to death. Understand how great the sins you've committed are."

With that, I was transferred to Bilbrem.

---

This is the outskirts of Bilbrem, where there is no one around. At the Zombie House, Suzumi is still shouting magic. I decided to leave her in a section of the Zombie House until she dies of old age. Of course, there is no water or food. Nevertheless, I set it up so he can survive. Be alone until you die. All your bad emotions will be converted into my power. I'll keep exploiting you until you die. Well, it's good if the people who became zombies are rewarded even a little bit. Honestly, I was undecided until the end on how to deal with Suzumi. I could have decisively cut his down there, or gradually made his body disappear. But then, he would die without any reflection. I want to somehow make him reflect on his actions, but with that personality, it's probably impossible for his entire life. I locked him up in that section out of pity. If he truly reflects, I plan to release him. However, if he doesn't reflect, he will be locked up until he dies. Probably, it will be the latter.

Looking at Suzumi's information, it seems like he was lending his power to the Evil King. He was also the one who broke the first seal. He was planning to give the Evil King enough power to confront the hero. I guess he was planning to watch it from above. He's completely playing around. Well, thanks to him, the exact location where the Evil King is sealed has been found. The rest are the remaining masterminds. I know their names, Sae and Tsutomu. They are currently missing. They must be somewhere in this world. However, these two have betrayed Saria, so I'm holding off on considering them as either enemy or ally.

More than anything, the most shocking thing is that I can't turn back into a human. I had a hunch that it wouldn't be possible to turn back into a human. Connecting to the management world system and changing races is like changing the game's program. If I could change races so easily, Saria would have played around with it. Also, even if I cleared everything and returned to being human and went back to Earth, I would be doing the same thing as Sphere. Clearing everything means defeating Saria and the masterminds. If that happens, the God who manages it will disappear. If no one manages it, it will inevitably lead to a crack and destruction. I myself have been too involved in this world. I transformed Lich, Jin, and Rikka into messengers or divine beasts with my own power, and I also gave blessings to some people. Returning to Earth means abandoning those people. I can't do it. Ugh, I'm at a loss. There's a way to rehabilitate Saria, but she's likely to make the same mistakes again. Is there no other way besides me managing it? Let's think about that too.

Now, should I tell my companions about everything that happened today, or should I keep it to myself?
