"Your recovery speed is amazing!" - Said Neferu looking calmly at Juri.
"It happens!" - Said Juri nonchalantly, slowly returning to her usual self.
As to what Neferu means?
Juri was weakened yesterday, but due to [Player Body], after falling asleep, all debuff and penalties were gone.
Neferu looked with some doubt at Juri, surely he wants to ask something, but he already has an idea what the answer will be.
"Since you and Luria are at the Masters Level, you are eligible to be present at the meeting that will take place, are for the plans to deal with Priscilla!" - Neferu said calmly.
Juri nodded, Luria was following him, compared to yesterday, she is much better, even though she has a residual trauma.
...
Soon Juri noticed the powerful presences in the throne room.
Akaryor, the Giant Ice King!
Neferu, Elemental Archmage of Ice!
Gratya, Queen of the Winter Kingdom!
3 figures that Juri is somewhat familiar with, but there were some Noble Elves who are around Level 120~160.
In addition, one figure caught her attention, a tall woman with purple skin and ram's horns coming out of her forehead.
[Twilight Witch, ???(BOSS/LORDE) - Level 193 / 199]
A very powerful Tiefling, but not yet up to the level of the 2 Lords present, but not far behind.
"This is Filanodora, she had been sent by the Explorer's Alliance!" - Said Neferu noticing the look on Juri's face.
Juri nodded, she already had an idea of her identity.
And Filanodora felt Juri's gaze, she looked a little surprised before smiling.
Juri smiled back, before taking a seat next to Luria.
So with about 30 individuals above Level 120, the meeting began!
But it disappointed Juri a bit, it was just a bunch of people talking all kinds of contingency plans, the big guys didn't say anything, just the weaker ones!
And the ones who really mattered, who even spoke, was Gratya, who still had a little authority.
Juri sighed internally and nodded.
Tap* Tap*
Suddenly, Filanodora patted the table twice, it was something light, but it caught the attention of the Giant King, who respectively looked at her and everyone else too, it's impossible not to notice!
"I feel that the young human has something to say, please speak!" - Said Filanodora pointing at Juri, who was surprised to be called out.
But soon she laughed as she said. - "I really didn't want to speak, I'm preoccupied with more important things!"
"What?" - Suddenly a noble elf shouted.
"What things are more important than killing that freak?!" - Roared the angry nobleman.
"Oh... what would it be that worries you to the point of not considering such a huge enemy in front of us?" - Filanodora asked smiling, finding this amusing.
"From what Neferu told me, he killed his granddaughter, Priscilla and her body had been taken over by the blood, it means he was sent somewhere else... but... current Priscilla is very different from her former self and... it worries me that she has an affinity with more than 3 types of Negative Elements!" - Juri said calmly.
"You seem to know quite a bit about the Negative Dimension!" - Said Filanodora smiling.
"I know a lot, I spent years dealing with those nasty freaks and occultists, so I know how their principles work and I know that... to be revived in a body as powerful as that, with such strong rituals... the sacrifice... actually, even if the entire Winter Realm and Giant's Realm were sacrificed, I think it could hardly result in something like that!" - Juri said calmly.
"I admit she's strong, but Juri, she's not invincible!" - Neferu said.
"I don't think you understand, she doesn't just have strength and supernatural powers, she has potential! For technically, she is alive and still growing!" - Said Juri, which made Neferu notice the point.
"The Negative Dimension works with a certain balance, having the principles of equivalent exchange, where to get something, you must lose something, that's how the damned Negative Dimension Entities work!
Priscilla was killed by you, having her skull pierced, so it should have ended there, but from what you said, an Entity saved her, probably the Blood Entity, because it's similar to something that happened to me before..." - Juri sighed, having his thoughts on this situation.
"My point is... Priscilla has nothing to sacrifice to have such a body and power, as well as such potential! Then why does she have this body?" - Juri smiled bitterly.
"The Entities may want to take over this world through her!" - Said Filanodora seriously, since she is at Paranormal Exposure Level 199, it means she knows quite a bit too.
"Again, that is not how it works! For the Other Side to affect our world, it needs a connection, which is knowledge, the more they know and engage with that Dimension, the stronger it gets in our reality!
But that won't change if simply an extremely powerful being appears, because just as the Negative Dimension fights back to attack us, our world will also fight back to resist, otherwise both would have already merged and we wouldn't be having this conversation!
This means that our world would generate someone to stand on equal footing against Priscilla, if such an individual does not already exist!
So the Entities would not do such an action for no gain, it means that the Entities want something, and it is not only the Blood, Flesh and Bone Entity, I felt the Hate Entity, and... Knowledge...
If Priscilla's body is carrying 5 Negative Elements with such balance, it only means that there is something in this world, especially in the Frozen Plains, that the Negative Entities want very much to the point of breaking the rules!" - Said Juri calmly, which made everyone think.
"That... so you wouldn't be the culprit?" - Gratya asked suddenly, everyone's attention landing on her.
"What do you mean?" - A nobleman asked seriously.
"Gratya!" - Neferu raised her voice and Gratya fell silent.
"What do you mean she's the culprit? SPEAK!" - Roared another Noble knocking on the table and more came.
Juri sighed and said. - "I was born with the power to travel between Worlds and Dimensions!"
Silence dominated the place, Filanodora standing up with wide eyes.
"That... is it real?" - Akaryor asked quietly.
"Yes..." - Said Neferu sighing.
"But what does her traveling between worlds have to do with Priscilla becoming... that?" - A noble asked.
"In my world, Magic is something scarce, almost non-existent and because my world has developed to fight the Negative Dimension since ancient times, it took us a long time to find out about Magic and we started using Negative Energy to fight the creatures from the Other Side that invaded my world!"
"My world is mainly dominated by Humans, there are no other Races like Elves, Dwarves, Orcs and so on, only Humans!"
"And unlike your world, my world is much older, having a more balanced and formed power system, whereas the one in your world... is still developing and seeking stability."
Juri sighed as he spoke, stating a fact that surprised even Neferu, but he is not dumb and understood that some time ago, there was a barrier that he could not pass, but suddenly that barrier was broken!
Not to mention that recently, the Mana of the world is more abundant and it has become easier to get even stronger!
"Wait... you have something to do with the boundaries of this world breaking down?" - Akaryor asked suddenly.
"Yes!" - Said Juri calmly and soon explained.
"Let's use a numbers base!
Your world before I arrived in it, supported individuals up to Level 20, let's say everyone in this room is Level 12 at least, but when I arrived in this world, the limits were broken by influence of my world, so it can be said that where in the past you at most could reach Level 20, now you can reach Level 25 or 30, I don't know where that will end up yet.
And this is because my world which is much older, has individuals with a high power, for example... Level 50, 60, 80 or even 100!
In other words, your world which is a child, is being influenced and affected by my world, but the problem is that the chances that the Negative Dimension of your world has been affected by that of my world, are even higher!" - Juri sighed as he noticed something.
"There are chances that the Entities of my World have come into contact with the Entities of your world, perhaps they have assimilated and thus can influence both our worlds.
And I believe, that you may have some kind of barrier attached to me, preventing my world from completely influencing yours, which must be preventing the Entities from exercising their full power and authority!" - Juri scratched her chin thoughtfully and noticed something.
"I think... through my death, or perhaps by sacrificing myself, the Entities will be able to destroy the fabric of reality and affect our world even more, maybe even conquer it!" - Juri was startled realizing something.
She now understands why the Entities like her blood so much, perhaps it could be due to something related to the God who created her body.
But it could also be related to the System!
The Entities may be longing for the System, something capable of creating an infinite world full of resources and life!
Entities that love death and slaughter, must rejoice knowing of worlds they could conquer and devour!
"You mean... they are after you, because if you die or are sacrificed, you could break some kind of barrier between our worlds, which would make them even more powerful, so they chose Priscilla as a kind of pawn, to capture you, kill you or who knows what?" - Neferu asked seriously.
"Probably!" - Said Juri frowning.
"But what will happen then, will they take Priscilla's power?" - Asked a nobleman somewhat calmly.
"Impossible, Priscilla is not theirs, much less their creation, so they can't take something they have handed over to her!" - Said Juri calmly.
"But the power is theirs!" - Said the nobleman.
"The Entities are the ones who control the Elements of the Negative Dimension, beings that my world theorizes were born of the Elements, not created them!
Simply put... it's like Neferu here, he's an Ice Elemental, he can control his element and the element around him, but he won't be able to control my Ice Element Spells.
In my world for example, we use Sacrificial Rituals to get power from these Entities, who deliver the power, even if they don't want to deliver, they will be forced to deliver according to what was sacrificed.
The reason is simple, the Entities were born from the Elements and must follow rules of the Elements, if someone wants the power of such elements and is willing to pay for it, the Entities can only accept and that's it!" - Said Juri calmly and continued.
"Priscilla's case is special, but it's that, she was born in this world, the Entities revived her because they wanted to, they gave her power because they wanted to!
So we can compare it as follows, the Entity is kind of like a... argh, it's hard to use an analogy from my world, since no one here would understand, let me think about it a bit..." - Juri thought for a while and already knew what to say.
"The Entities are kind of like the Presidents of the Adventurer's Alliance, they have great resources in their pockets, but also in all the branches under their jurisdiction.
The Elements are the money and resources available by the Alliance President!
Respectively, the Explorers are the individuals who, seeking more power, make Sacrifices with the Entities in exchange for various things, in this case, the quests and rewards they receive!
With these comparisons as a basis, what would happen if a major project that benefits the entire Association in that region was being funded, then all the Branches and the President would take money and resources to fund this project.
But then the President suddenly wishes-" - Juri was explaining when Neferu interrupted him and said.
"The Entities cannot use the Negative Dimension Element as they wish, they are intermediaries only, but they probably receive something like a payment for their service, this in the form of the Elements that make them up!
Priscilla is a special case, since she didn't sacrifice anything to have this power, meaning that it was the Entities that took everything out of their own pockets to grant her power, but still following the rules of the Negative Dimension!
Respectively, Priscilla who was revived with a more powerful body full of potential, is just someone the Entities funded, but they have no real control over Priscilla, so if she decides to rebel and stop following their orders, the Entities can't do anything?" - Neferu asked looking at Juri.
"Yes!" - Said Juri a little embarrassed, he explained it so simply and quickly, so she was getting all mixed up!
"Okay, but how does that help us?" - Akaryor asked frowning.
"It means we have to get Priscilla on our side in case we are unable to kill her!" - Filanodora said laughing and everyone looked at her, many aggressive looks.
"Calm down and listen to me!" - Filanodora said laughing.
"Since Priscilla is independent, but she is still under some kind of mind control, we can make a method of making her betray the Entities and take our side, even if she doesn't take our side, we can make her become totally independent and not crave to follow the orders of the Entities!" - Filanodora said with a wide smile.
"Okay, but how does that help? The Entities can't do anything to her, even if she betrays them!" - Said Akaryor confused.
"Then let's do it in a way that the Entities can do something against her!" - Filanodora said and looking at Juri.
"Ah, but no fucking way!" - Juri laughed as he understood what she means.
And what would that be?
[Negative Dimension, Lv.Max]
Type: Special
Description: You can open a rift straight into the [Negative Dimension] of the world you are in!
Juri has this Skill that she has never used before, even if the Entities can't do much in reality, they certainly have great influence in the [Negative Dimension].
That is, they will find a way to make Priscilla betray the Entities and then banish her to the [Negative Dimension].
Even if she doesn't die, at least it will be very difficult for her to return to this dimension.
Weak creatures like the Sex Demon that raped Juri in the past, or the Blood Creatures that are almost like Vampires, were able to cross the barrier because they are weak and limit their power a lot!
Even if Priscila is from this world, it is obvious that she must be more inclined to be a Paranormal Creature than anything else.
So if she steps into the Negative Dimension, there is a good chance it will prevent her from leaving, unless it greatly suppresses her power.
Juri wishes he had thought of this earlier, if they can't kill her, then just banish her from this world!
(Author: ... fuck you!
Why am I cursing? Maybe it's that I made 4 plans for this, so I decided to play 1D20 to decide which plan they will follow, 1~5 would be a horrible and purely brutal plan that would result in the Giant King's death with 95% certainty!
6~10, would be a bad plan, but one that in my opinion has a good chance of success.
11~19, would be one of the best plans to follow, where Philanodora would notice the degree of danger and call a power on the same Level as Neferu and Akaryor, with 3 Lords, even Priscilla would die!
20... the conversation would somehow get to how to banish her, until Juri would remember a Skill she never used, namely [Negative Dimension]!
So you can see why I'm cursing, DOWN 20!)
