177-How Takumi Douma became a prince



We'll get the armored car ready as soon as possible.

 Midia and Manya stay in the shadows with Frangible rounds in the FA-MAS-G2. Pina is on top of the turret so that she can escape at any time. Mr. Hasty is in the vicinity of the armored car, on alert for any approachers. I'll be at the left rear of Douma-kun with a P229 pistol and stun gun.

 In this position, I communicate with the Goddess.
 However, I'm not comfortable being the only one standing in front of her.
 I'm going to take the spirits of the window and Mogu with me.

''Sorry for the wait, I'll be communicating with the Goddess-sama in an armored car. The witnesses are me and the spirit, the contact environment is soundproof, but there are two subordinates in the car armed and guarded, and one person outside the car to guard the area. If you agree to this, we will take you there.

No problem, thank you.

 The way the goddess told me about her history, she seemed reckless and pushy, but now she seemed rational and calm. Either way, though, I was going to let him visit me if he agreed to the conditions.


★ Common space in the car

It's not much, but it's good to see a goddess.

 Just tea and sweets. Mogu for window flowers? Mr. Douma hasn't done anything yet, okay? So stop threatening me!

 To prove you're not poisoned, you let him choose his own cup, pour tea from the same pot and drink it from me. You're at a royal reception and he's a dangerous man. Yes, I'm nervous, I'm losing consciousness on P229 in my holster!

An armored car? Great, I forced myself to choose magic and it was a mistake... I implanted a bio-magic circuit around the frontal lobe of my brain, but I got greedy and messed with the temporal and parietal lobes and lost my normal thinking.

 I heard it was the prefrontal cortex, but is it more than that or........ No wonder Lady Tenzoku said it was her fault. After all, brain modification is dangerous, it would be unnatural if it didn't affect your personality.

 Furthermore, the magic element that can normally only be taken in by breathing. This is also modified by modifying the digestive system so that the demon's core can be digested and absorbed. Transplant the organs that store the demon's nucleus in liquid form. Apparently, it was a mechanism to channel magic power into the aorta of the heart when needed.

 I've learned a lot about the danger of demonic nuclei since I came to this world. Even if they have special digestive organs and storage devices, they are not completely immune to the effects of demonization. Unless you have this cleansing technology, such as the self-propelled archaeological sites, it's still a crazy procedure.

 I heard about his behavioral problems during his visit to the company, and that was about it. I overworked my frontal lobe in designing the system and lost my emotions, and I needed a long treatment to get them back. That's the surgery, the magic nucleus, and too much recklessness.

''Ryota-san, please don't look so somber. I was foolish to think that I could get the power without any cost. Besides, now that I'm in a different body and I'm back to normal... it's time to talk about this body.

 You're still young, but you realize your mistakes and move on...
 Soon it could be someone else.

I'll connect you to the goddesses first, I'm sorry I haven't taken the time to talk to you, I'm supposed to be the one you want to talk to first. I'm sorry I didn't take the time to talk to you, but you're royalty and that's why you came to me. I'll be there, but I won't interrupt the conversation, so give me a shout if you need anything.

 I'll open the line with Goddess as soon as possible.
 It's a pity it's a visual communication and not a face-to-face meeting.

"Takumi! I don't know what he looks like, but I don't care. I shouldn't have risked my life in surgery. I'm sorry!

"Doma-kun I'm sorry the post-operative examination was inadequate..." "Reincarnation ...differently but are you happy now? ....

 Even though it was his own wish, the Goddesses sent the underage student to investigate by performing dangerous brain modification on him and altering most of his body. The goddesses seem to regret that it was rash. I can't defend the Goddesses for that at all either.

 Also, aren't you treated too differently from Toshiaki-san? I mean, there's a difference between dead soldiers and deserters, but you know what I think the disparity is, don't you?

''It's not your fault, Goddess-sama, even though you advised me, I forced you to ask for help. Furthermore, I am sorry that I destroyed myself with little investigation, I am now in a state of possession, not reincarnation, but near possession. However, I was unable to dedicate a letter to you because I had no communication organs in my former body and this body is blessed by the gods of Ares.

 Then, Douma-kun began to explain to the goddesses how he became a new body and report on his current situation. I tried to stay out of the way, but I kept my guard up so I wouldn't get distracted.

 The goddesses are curious about their current lives, but I'm curious as to why he, a brilliant student, volunteered to go to this world.

 He doesn't seem to be attracted to illusions, he seems to be the type of person who values his family and friends. So I can't help but wonder why he volunteered to leave that behind, and I can't help but wonder about his motives.

 But right now, his story is more important than my personal questions. Finally, he began to explain the circumstances of how Dooma-kun possessed his current body.

 The owner of the body he possessed was Holger Fafnar, the third prince of Fafnar's military kingdom. Ostensibly, it was treated as an accident, but in reality, he was apparently pushed off the city walls. Magic potions and magic revived his vitality, but due to delays in healing, he never regained consciousness.

 However, Holger, who had sensed the danger of conspiracy to kill before, had taken measures.
 The result of that was apparently the possession of Douma-kun.

 Holger, the third prince.

 The people suffering from heavy taxation, his homeland on the verge of financial ruin in a poor land, repeated military aid to the sovereign Valgars, etc. He wanted to eliminate the causes of suffering for his people and his country, and he was involved in many activities.

 Hence, he was seen as an enemy by the Valgarz aristocracy in the country. He had expected that to happen, and if it happened, he had a spell to entrust his wishes to those who were worthy to inherit his will.

 However, the spell that originally entrusted the will to him led to Douma immediately after his death in the special circumstances of his vegetative state, causing the unexpected phenomenon of possession, which resulted in the memory succession.

 It was probably because Douma-kun was the most suitable for the conditions to inherit Prince Holger's ideals.
