"No matter what, even if I go back now, I might still be dragged back by that woman in military uniform, right? Since I've already been involved in this kind of thing, I have to deal with it before I go back."
"However, Mr. Xiang is going too far, saying something like 'You can come here by opening the door'... That kind of power is too unfair!"
“It’s alright,” muttered the Library Sage Meteora. “According to the setting, I don’t even want to think about what would have happened if it had been the King of Ultra.”
"However, according to my understanding, there should be a huge materialistic barrier between the real world and our story world. Given the current situation, it should be impossible for an overly powerful character to appear in this real world. So why is Mr. Xiang able to..."
Not only her, but high school student Sota Mizushino and uncle Takashi Matsubara also turned around and whispered to each other with their arms around each other's shoulders.
They were muttering about things like, "Where did Ultraman go to fight in DC? That's a fan-made creation," "I've never heard of that," "And there's no official collaboration like that," "If there were, it would have been all over the place by now," "What's going on here?"
Such words.
It was obvious that even though Xiang repeatedly clarified that he was different from Serega and the others, and was not a character from a fantasy product of this world.
But whether it's characters like Serega who came out of fantasy works, or people from the real world like Sota Mizushino and Takashi Matsubara, they all just think that the countryside doesn't acknowledge reality.
In their minds, all the extraordinary individuals before them had come from fantasy works, so how could this one be the only exception?
Hideki Go could only helplessly accept their preconceived notions and let them be.
Since explanations are useless, we can only wait and let the facts speak for themselves.
However, acknowledging this power... looking at humanity across countless universes, Earthlings here, possessing this innate ability, are definitely among the most unique.
Although it is only a planetary-level authority, its ability to turn falsehood into reality and create something from nothing is not to be underestimated, no matter where it is placed.
But precisely because of this, Hideki Go's mood has become very heavy.
He thought of something terrible!
Volume 1: 545. Gui Man, who perceives blind spots and loves all worlds.
545. Recognizing blind spots, loving all of the world – Guiman
Seeing Hideki Go's expression suddenly turn grave, as if he had thought of something terrifying, the library sage Meteora couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"
Hideki Go slowly raised his eyes and said, word by word, "Since the people of this world are born with the special talent of the ability to acknowledge, works that are spread widely enough and deeply into people's hearts will become real and give birth to a real world."
"Then what about those works that, in essence, are only meant to depict despair, a world beyond saving, a world where good people never get rewarded and evil people can always run rampant?"
Geek!
As soon as Hideki Go said those words, the entire scene fell silent instantly. Everyone was stunned and paused.
yes……
The characters we know so far either come from a wonderful world like magical girls, or from works like Selesia, where the process is fraught with uncertainty but the overall tone is set for a good ending.
However, given the existence of such a thing as credibility, the world of a real work can be fully imagined using the simplest logic; it is absolutely impossible for a work to only have a good worldview.
Horror films featuring vengeful ghosts relentlessly seeking souls from all of humanity, Cthulhu-esque horror novels, and works of fiction about love in the style of "God is dead."
There are also many stories made to warn people in reality, in which any good character suffers countless hardships from childhood to old age, and in the end, the villains still get away with it.
Even if the original intention was to warn people in reality, it does not prevent the fact that for those people in those works and those in those worldviews, all of these things are one after another, despairing to the point of despair, terrifying to the point of terror, of reality.
"this--"
The library sage Meteora was the first to react, and couldn't help but gasp in shock!
She was the smartest person present, but even she hadn't thought of this before being reminded.
Even though she had searched the entire internet in the real world over the past few days and seen those popular, globally circulated horror stories, she had never thought of these things before—a complete blind spot.
Do not……
Or, to be more accurate than not thinking about it, it might be that I didn't even consider it.
Because in her own story, although she is set up as a sage who guides the hero, the protagonist, and the player who plays the hero, and is a member of the order side and a good person, she is just an ordinary good person.
When she's in trouble herself, she simply can't think about the suffering of others.
Moreover, even if her suffering disappeared, even if she thought of this, she certainly wouldn't say it or take any action, because such a thing was far beyond her capabilities.
Even if there were ten thousand, a hundred million, or a trillion of them, they would be absolutely helpless in dealing with this matter. So even if they might think about it someday in the future, they would definitely force themselves not to think about it.
But Mr. Xiang was different.
Upon learning of the existence of the [Power of Recognition], this was the first thing that came to his mind. His thoughts immediately began to wander, conjuring up a multitude of worlds that might have already been created, or even long ago, filled with terror and despair, and his heart sank into a deep sorrow.
This is simply...
“Mr. Xiang, allow me to ask a seemingly unrelated question first,” asked the library sage, Meteora, “that beautiful woman in military uniform, do you have any way to deal with her right now?”
It's not that I don't believe in Ultraman's strength, but it was obvious that the woman in military uniform had transferred the female knight and the magical girl away and successfully escaped. Hideki Go was unable to stop her from doing either of those things.
“It’s quite troublesome,” Hideki Go said, frowning. “For me right now, she’s probably a rather formidable opponent. At least for now, I have no idea how to keep her here, or how to find her. Why are you suddenly asking this?”
The wise girl from the library shook her head: "No, it's nothing."
really.
Although Mr. Go didn't say it explicitly, if he is really as powerful as the setting suggests, as long as he transforms into Ultraman Jack and uses his telekinesis to conduct a global search and immobilize her, even that powerful woman in military uniform shouldn't be able to escape.
It's unclear whether it's currently impossible to transform, or whether even if one transforms, the materialistic barriers of Earth prevent them from unleashing the full power they're designed to possess.
She had considered this beforehand. While the power of recognition might not necessarily be unable to materialize a Chang'ao, it was absolutely impossible to make a Chang'ao with full power move freely in the real world.
She felt that this was also evidence that Mr. Xiang acknowledged that people are shaped by force, though of course, that's not important now.
The important thing is that it's certain that for Mr. Xiang now, dealing with that beautiful woman in military uniform and resolving that problem won't be easy; it's not something he can necessarily do.
Even so, under this premise, Mr. Xiang still prioritized thinking about the countless dark worldviews shaped by the power of recognition, and about the large number of people suffering...
So that's how it is. Is this Ultraman?
Compared to the vague description of "an existence of extreme kindness" in online encyclopedias, experiencing it firsthand truly made me understand the weight of that description.
The underlying logic is different; even when faced with their own troubles, they always prioritize others.
Although she had only been in contact with the Giant of Light for a short while, she already understood why the two men in the real world were so excited and felt so reassured after seeing Mr. Go.
That's truly a foul, not just in terms of strength, but also in terms of mentality.
"I was just thinking."
The library sage girl Meteora spoke again to comfort her, "According to my estimation, no matter how strong the power of recognition is, no matter how far you estimate it, it should not be strong enough to shape the entire Land of Light, nor could it give birth to something like a true Cthulhu universe."
"Even if there are, their strength will definitely be significantly reduced and limited. No matter how powerful something is, there is always a limit. So at least for dark works like Cthulhu, which have overly powerful settings, we can say that we don't need to worry about them."
However, upon hearing this, high school boy Sota Mizushino seized upon another point: "But, in that case, wouldn't a dark worldview with low combat power be created?"
There are many works with a dark worldview where the combat power is no higher than that of Bakujo, and the entire story is dark for the sake of darkness. They are so dark that they make you want to vomit!
So many years have passed, even if we don't consider ancient times or modern times.
If we only consider the works created over the past twenty years, how enormous would that be if we added them all together from around the world?
It's important to know that the works featuring Selesia and Meteora never achieved global popularity. Meteora's game only sold two or three million copies worldwide.
Although this sales figure is already very high, how many works of this caliber have there been worldwide over the years? It's safe to say that they are truly countless.
If all those works gave birth to real worlds...
Wouldn't that turn people in the real world into terrifying executioners?!
Are all those who write those dark works, and those who read them, accomplices?!
High school student Mizushino Sota and uncle Matsubara Takashi's expressions changed drastically in an instant, as both of them had watched quite a few horror movies!
"What should we do then!" Shui Xiaosa became too anxious. He wasn't the kind of guy who thought that people in stories didn't have human rights. Since the people in the story had come to life, they were obviously the same people.
"Although I really want to deal with those things right away, I need to think about this matter more."
Hideki Go sighed with pity. Even if he were Ultraman, the sheer number of dark and disturbing works accumulated by the people of this Earth over the years was so vast that even if he worked himself to death, there was absolutely no way he could save them in a short time.
There are too many to handle alone; it would take him many years.
Moreover, even assuming he takes immediate action, there is a huge prerequisite: that other worlds have not been visited by the woman in military uniform, and that no gateway connecting them to the real world has been set up for them.
Without that door, given his current inability to transform, he wouldn't be able to go to those worlds.
That beautiful woman in military uniform... if possible, I'll probably need her assistance in the future.
Although the woman in military uniform is not a threat in terms of weight class, her abilities are indeed quite unique.
"Let's test it first,"
Hideki Go, without hesitation, said, "Mr. Matsubara, you're the author of the Asmelia world, right? Then please revise Selesia's settings now, enhance her, and see if you can change her current state. Also, please enhance Charon as well. I'll go back and check if Charon from the original world has been affected."
"Okay, okay!" Uncle Matsubara Takashi nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and hurriedly started making the changes.
He didn't dare to take big steps. He turned on his computer and typed away for a while. He simply enhanced Serega to the point that she could reach the hexagonal limit and unleash her ultimate attack without the Vogel Knight mecha. She was roughly at the level of Gojo Satoru before he was enhanced by Voice of the Stars.
But Serega blinked, chuckled, and realized it was no use; her strength was exactly the same as before the settings were added.
Hideki quickly returned to Asmelia and informed Karon that Serega had been found and was safe and sound, but would not return for some time. He told Karon not to worry. He also checked Karon's strength and found that Karon had not changed.
It was completely unaffected.
"Just as I expected."
The wise young girl from the library, Meteora, had a calm and confident expression on her face. "The power of acceptance is not so simple. One person's power of acceptance is far from enough to turn falsehood into truth."
"If you want to strengthen Serega's power, you should make the strengthening setting an official setting and write it directly into the next volume of the light novel before releasing it."
"Furthermore, it is necessary to write enough expressive battles, and only after the sales reach a sufficient amount and the readers collectively watch and recognize them can it achieve a real impact."
He truly deserves his reputation as a strategist; he's no slouch.
Mirokuji Yuya, the wooden sword-wielding man who was eating nearby, finally interjected, "Then just write it, and release it, wouldn't that be great?"
"Since Ultraman alone isn't confident he can defeat that woman in military uniform, why not just release the next volume immediately, strengthen Serega and someone else to the point where they can beat that woman, or simply write her into the book as a villain defeated by Serega?"
He wasn't a bad person, but he didn't have any grand ambitions either. He just found women in military uniforms troublesome and wanted to get rid of them quickly.
"You make it sound so simple, but the reality is far from easy!" Uncle Matsubara Takashi said with a wry smile.
The tone of a work is set from the beginning and has already been recognized by the readers. It is extremely difficult to make drastic changes at this point, and it is virtually impossible to gain acceptance.
In his work, even the strongest Vogel Knight mecha is only at the "building explosion" level; upgrading it to the point of "street explosion" is already the limit.
Moreover, even if it's just a "street-level" story, it already has to involve writing about Selesia and Charon being caught in an unparalleled, unprecedented crisis, with their mecha merging into one, and then completely abandoning everything else, only writing about Selesia quickly defeating the enemy and finishing the story in a fast way.
Only in this way can readers barely accept it.
