Simultaneous Transmigration: A Fateful Traveler's Journey Begins in Mystery

Yes, today's update is in the previous chapter and the first half of this chapter.

Some readers have commented that they wanted to see a Sunday update featuring the God of War, and I thought that made sense, so I replaced yesterday's chapter with today's update.

The final hand!

! The end of a hand-sized hand

Chapter 132 The Blessing of the Race

In the Kingdom of Lugnica, on a commercial street.

"Boss, can I get paid today?" Moraine put the box on the counter. "By the way, I won't be coming starting tomorrow."

This shop was the day-wage job Moraine found after arriving in this world.

The boss was a big, burly man who sold apples. He wore a headscarf and short sleeves, and had a blade of grass in his mouth. He spoke in a rough voice, but he was a good person.

Because of the language barrier, he had to pretend to be a traveler from another country who was penniless and unable to speak. Through simple gestures and a conversation that lasted more than ten minutes, he finally convinced the shopkeeper that he wanted to find a job.

The store manager was indeed a good person; although Morion's background was rather suspicious, he still took him in to help.

Although the wages will likely be significantly lower than the market price, you can steal apples.

"You...you can talk?!" The uncle had initially just casually gestured for Morion to put down the box, but he quickly realized what was going on.

The little boy, who couldn't speak or understand anything just a few days ago, suddenly started talking today!

"Hmm... I woke up early this morning and suddenly awakened a 'blessing of telepathy,' which allows what I want to say to appear directly in other people's minds." Morion made up a reason on the spot.

This reason sounds a bit far-fetched, but it doesn't seem impossible.

In this world, there exists a core called "Odraguna," which is similar to a world consciousness.

"Blessing" is the world consciousness's favoritism towards those it cherishes.

Most blessings are present at birth, but a small number are acquired later in life.

The middle-aged man looked at Morion with surprise in his eyes, but still nodded.

"I see..."

"Congratulations then," he said hesitantly.

In the uncle's view, it was like someone suddenly announcing that they had won a hundred million in the lottery. Although it was hard to believe, it was not beyond his worldview. If you had to say, it was not entirely impossible.

Moreover...

"So, young man, your aura is indeed completely different from before." The uncle nodded seriously. "By the way, where did you buy that mask? It feels a bit strange."

"If it weren't for your tattoos, I wouldn't even recognize you."

It seems that the difference in temperament and appearance between the two Morion before and after the synchronization is so great that even ordinary people would be surprised.

“Perhaps this blessing has some other effects that I’m not even aware of,” Morion replied with a smile. “It’s quite amazing.”

"As for the mask, I found it at the bottom of my luggage. It's something I've worn for a long time, and I just happened to find it and put it on."

"I see." The uncle scratched his head.

He had never seen anyone with the blessing in person, and he couldn't determine whether this was a normal situation.

However, the man quickly recovered from his shock.

After all, this is something that can't be taken away, so there's nothing to be jealous of.

In his view, they were all ordinary people trying to make a living, so he was genuinely happy for Morion.

“However, it will be another day before we get paid. You must have misremembered the time,” the uncle said, looking at Morion.

"Wrong time? Impossible, I clearly..." Morion was about to say something was wrong, but then he suddenly realized something.

He paused for a moment, then smiled at the older man.

"Haha, sorry, I might have really remembered it wrong."

"It's nothing, it's nothing," the uncle said, waving his hand with a blade of grass in his mouth.

“Well… I don’t need today’s pay. Boss, I’m here to resign,” Moraine said.

The uncle nodded in understanding.

"Indeed, there's no future in working for me."

He scratched his head.

"Well then, you didn't do a full day's work, but at least you came this morning."

"Then you can take half the money."

"Take five silver coins." The uncle placed five silver coins bearing the image of the Great Sage on the table beside him.

The currency of this country follows the common Western fantasy system of copper, silver, and gold coins. In addition, there is an even more valuable "Holy Gold Coin".

One gold coin is equal to one hundred silver coins, which is equal to ten thousand copper coins.

One Holy Gold Coin is equal to two Ordinary Gold Coins.

“Oh, thank you.” Morion nodded his thanks and accepted the coins.

Although it's a small amount, it's still the result of his hard work.

and……

Morion thought to himself with dissatisfaction:

No, who dropped points this time?!

He had figured out what had happened earlier.

Just now, the protagonist of this world, Subaru Natsuki, died again.

He possesses the ability of "returning to life," which resets the world's timeline after his death.

In fact, this was his third death during this period.

Ah... It was supposed to be a daily wage, but I ended up working for three whole days...

They've only received half the money!

“Oh, by the way, uncle,” Morion pointed to the box he had just placed on the cabinet, “does this box of apples have some worms?”

"Really?" The uncle stood up in confusion, walked over, picked up an apple and glanced at it.

"Ah! That's true!" He frowned in distress. "That would mean a lot of them would break."

He discovered that there was a golden butterfly under the apple he had picked up.

"But maybe only a few are broken." He unloaded the entire box, placed it on the ground, and began to inspect it.

"Then I'll be going now," Moraine said, waving her hand.

"Okay, goodbye." The uncle continued his inspection, saying without turning his head.

A few minutes later.

Moraine walked out of the apple stand.

Walking down the street, Moraine felt the changes in her body.

He had never been able to sense the purpose of that "blessing" before, but after Morion split off his first Fortune-Gathering Servant, he suddenly realized it.

"The protection of family members".

The system allows you to sense the life status of all your relatives, such as illness, near death, and death. If a family member dies outside, you can immediately pinpoint the approximate location and cause of death.

It wasn't until Morion's first offspring appeared that he finally felt the true effects of this blessing.

Before this, because Morion had no family in this world at the beginning, the blessing had no effect at all, so Morion was unaware of anything.

“That sounds like such a miserable life…” Moraine muttered.

Without looking where he was going, Moraine carelessly kicked a pebble aside and, guided by her intuition, wandered aimlessly into an alley.

He continues to feel the changes in his body.

Now, after synchronization is complete, "family protection" has mutated.

It evolved.

After evolution, this blessing is called "the blessing of the race".

He raised his hand, and a moth fluttered its wings and landed on Morion's fingertip, raising its furry head to look at him.

Moraine patted its head with her other hand.

After the blessing evolved into "Blessing of the Clan," the blessing not only retained and enhanced its original abilities but also gained new effects.

These are: "Returning Home" and "Traveling Far Away".

The effect of "Returning Home" is that after all descendants die, their souls will return to Morion's side. After Morion opens up the imaginary space, the souls will appear directly in the imaginary space to wait for rebirth.

Unless the soul is "sealed" or the connection between the worm offspring and Morion is severed by something like the Heavenly Sword, there is basically no way to prevent its return.

This ability is similar to Morion's ability to directly suppress the spirit of the ants after his self-destruction in Pinocchio.

But it is more effective, with no limit on the number of people and an almost infinite range, and after reincarnation, you can choose whether to retain your memories from your previous life.

The option to retain memories exists in the hands of both the Broodlings and Morion, with Morion having a greater choice than the Broodlings. As the master of the Blessing, Morion can also refuse the "return home" of a certain Broodling.

However, these two restrictive effects are actually unnecessary, since no offspring will disobey the King's will. During locust plagues, after the King issues an order, the offspring can even voluntarily die, using themselves to provide food for other "family" species. And the King will naturally not refuse its children returning to its embrace.

The effect of "wandering" is that Morion's consciousness can freely descend into any of his offspring's bodies. He can simply possess them, switch places with them, or temporarily transfer his power to them.

Overall, while this blessing belongs to Morion, its effect on Morion himself is actually quite limited. However, his offspring receive a huge boost in terms of both life protection and short-term bursts of power.

Especially in terms of survival, even if one dies, one's soul can "return to the father's embrace."

If it were someone from another part of this world, they might think, "It was supposed to be a blessing for me, but it didn't do anything for me personally, and it even involves the soul of the dead. What bad luck!"

But for Morion...

With his feet firmly planted, Moraine looked up at the sky and smiled contentedly.
