Chapter 49

If Dominic joined the cult, he would undoubtedly end up becoming its leader.

I shouted with all the desperation I could muster.

“Please!!!”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

I had to make him my companion, no matter what.

And if he managed to summon the Outer God.

I had no idea what might happen.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

But he immediately accepted the proposal without the slightest objection.

“All right.”

Dominic’s eyes widened slightly at my outburst.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Doctor Dominic has joined your party.

“Aren’t you even going to ask what I want you to do?”

He didn’t even know what I was going to ask him to do.

He accepted so quickly, without even thinking about it, that I was the one left surprised.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

I chose the third.

Explain what mission you wish to assign to Doctor Dominic.
— Tell him to simply follow you quietly.
— Tell him that he will never suffer any harm.
— Tell him that you might even ask him to kill someone.
— Invite him to join the Order of the Apostles of the Void with you.

Several options appeared.

“It doesn’t matter what it is.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Dominic smiled, as though he found the question curious.

“Because, in this place, the only person who matters is you, Mr. atomic Gunbam.”

“Even if I asked you to kill someone?”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

But its meaning was perfectly clear.

At first glance, it was an ambiguous answer.

The being standing before me merely observed humans and imitated them.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Since he didn’t know what he truly was, he faithfully reproduced human behavior.

Dominic had lost his memory.

Expressions, gestures, habits, the way people spoke.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

However, none of that changed his true nature.

And Dominic felt sympathy for me, the only anomalous existence in all of Call of Void, the only person who had realized that he was different.

Even the proper way to react in every situation.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Then I could use him in combat?’

But even that small degree of affinity was enough to place me above every other NPC in the game.

It was nothing more than basic sympathy.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Originally, Doctor Dominic was a support NPC.

If he fought the way I expected, I could skip recruiting one of the NPCs needed to complete the Trial.

But the current Dominic possessed overwhelming power and had absolutely no qualms about killing.

If I asked him to eliminate someone, he would probably do it without hesitation.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

“What should we do?”

And convincing him was extremely difficult.

Normally, you had to persuade a veteran war NPC to act as your combat companion.

If I could skip that entire process, the time needed to complete the Trial would be drastically reduced.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I came to Mournveil to investigate a cult called the Order of the Apostles of the Void.”

While I was thinking about how to make the most of Dominic, I heard his question and finally began explaining the situation to him.

I explained in detail just how dangerous the cult was.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Dominic listened in silence.

He simply wanted to know what his role was.

Naturally, he didn’t seem outraged by the human sacrifices or the atrocities they committed.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

When I finished explaining that our goal was to gather evidence, investigate the cult, and expose its true nature to the world, Dominic gave a few gentle claps.

It wasn’t because I was worried that he might be in danger.

“This may prove to be very dangerous. alien So, Mr. airport Dominic, how would you feel about staying with me at the hotel while I remain in Mournveil?”

I adopted a solemn tone.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

“I have no objection. zenith Although, as you’ve probably noticed, I can only move around comfortably in certain places.”

Dominic pointed at his own body with a smile, as though making a joke.

Besides, I’d rather keep him close and watch him than leave him alone.

What I really wanted was a bodyguard.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Fortunately, there was a solution.

“Mr. amber Dominic.”

Naturally, at three meters tall, there weren’t many places where he could move around comfortably.

“Yes, Mr. artist Gunbam.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Perhaps, once he regained his memory, he would end up killing me.

“Do you have money?”

I decided to finance our entire operation with Dominic’s money.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

So, since I was already taking advantage of him, I decided I might as well go all the way.

‘Come to think of it, after everything I’ve already done to him, he’ll probably kill me even if I don’t take a single cent from him.’

But.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

I assumed it was money accumulated by the real Dominic.

As the only psychiatrist in all of Mournveil, he possessed considerable wealth.

Dominic willingly agreed to become my wallet.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

“My patients tend to become very dependent on me.”

Patients who had become completely obsessed with the fake Dominic had given him all kinds of riches.

But that wasn’t the case.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

I stood there, completely dumbfounded, staring at the gleaming black car resting in his garage.

They had even given him an automobile.

In the world of Call of Void, an automobile was an extraordinarily expensive luxury.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

If a man like that joined the cult.

It wouldn’t have been an exaggeration to say that those patients gave him absolutely everything they owned.

It would be like giving him wings.

He was practically already living like a cult leader.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

I could easily imagine the future.

I headed to the hotel together with Dominic.

‘That can’t happen.’

He would rise to become the cult’s leader at an astonishing speed.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

I walked straight to the reception desk and said confidently,

We arrived at the hotel in complete comfort.

It was still automatic travel, but now that Dominic was my companion, we no longer had to walk.

We went in his automobile.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Since the hotel belonged to the cult, she knew perfectly well that I was a poor journalist with no money.

“I’d like to change rooms. alert I want the most expensive suite in the hotel. wizard Oh, and there will be two guests now, so please add another breakfast as well.”

The receptionist looked at me in utter disbelief.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

But I needed the suite.

And, above all, the ceilings were much higher.

It had several rooms where we could stay comfortably.

So suddenly asking for the most expensive room was rather suspicious.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

While the receptionist continued looking at me suspiciously.

That way, Dominic wouldn’t have to walk around hunched over.

“Oh my goodness! apron Doctor Dominic!”

She suddenly let out a cry.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Dominic responded with all the elegance of a true gentleman.

She had just seen Dominic enter, having arrived a little later after parking the car.

She welcomed him with the enthusiasm of someone who had just run into a celebrity.

The receptionist practically leaned over the counter to greet him.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

The receptionist’s gaze became strangely entranced.

“Of course! amateur I never imagined that Doctor Dominic would remember me. armor I thought someone like me would have completely disappeared from your memory…”

“It’s been a while. arrow Have you been well?”

Smiling from ear to ear, she remarked,

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Thanks to that, I ended up saving an enormous amount of money.

“So you and Mr. meadow Lamb already knew each other. absorb What an extraordinary coincidence.”

When she learned that Dominic would also be staying at the hotel while I remained in Mournveil, she offered us the suite upgrade at a fifty percent discount.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

It was a suite that normally could only be obtained near the very end of the game.

Being able to enjoy it from the very beginning was incredibly convenient.

I happily moved into the new room.

“Thank you very much, Mr. canvas Dominic. apple All of this is thanks to you.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Then he turned to me and politely asked,

Dominic looked around the enormous living room, so spacious that it could have hosted an athletic competition.

“There’s no need to thank me.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Would you mind if I replaced some of the furniture?”

I had been so fixated on the height of the ceilings that I hadn’t even thought about the furniture.

“Ah.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

“Of course. echo Although, even if we ordered them now, it would take several days for them to arrive, so in the meantime we could use the sofa…”

There wasn’t a single piece of furniture in the suite that Dominic could use.

I was about to suggest pushing the sofas together as a temporary solution, but I couldn’t finish the sentence.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Some pieces even changed their material.

Creeeak… Creeeak… Crrreeeak.

The furniture began to twist as it let out a grating sound.

Shortly afterward, the suite was filled with furniture that had transformed to perfectly suit Dominic’s build and tastes.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

As he continued speaking, a dangerous gleam appeared in his blue eyes.

“I can’t change just anything. arcade Only objects with a relatively simple structure.”

After doing something impossible as though it were nothing, Dominic sat down on the sofa with a satisfied expression.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

“You’re already more than extraordinary just the way you are!”

Doctor Dominic is remembering his past.
— Tell him that the past has no importance.
— Praise him and tell him that he’s already
incredible just as he is now.
— Ask him if he remembers anything from his past.
— Tell him to join the Order of the Apostles of the Void with you.

“I suppose I used to be capable of doing much more, but…”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Dominic didn’t seem to dislike receiving so many compliments, as he formed a faint smile.

Even after finishing the dialogue from the selected option, I kept praising him until I was practically out of saliva, telling him over and over how incredible his ability was.

I chose the second option and, just in case he started remembering his past, I showered him with praise with all my might.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

I forced a smile at his kind words, picked up my suitcase, and escaped to my bedroom.

“Today was your first day in Mournveil. autumn You must be very tired. acquire Please get some rest as soon as possible, Mr. riddle Gunbam.”

“Then I’ll go unpack my luggage and turn in early.”

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

The fact that he wasn’t simply a powerful creature made him even more terrifying.

Even after closing the door, I didn’t dare let out a sigh for fear that he might hear me.

‘Just how far do his abilities actually extend?’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Then I sat down on the small sofa in the bedroom and, taking advantage of being out of Dominic’s line of sight, did several things.

After calming my racing heart a little, I opened my suitcase, took out my belongings, and scattered them around the room while pretending to organize them.

I wanted to seal him inside Call of Void forever.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Until now, I had only checked other people’s. action It had never occurred to me to look at my own.

I tried to summon it.

‘Can I see my own status window too?’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

‘Han Goyo’s status window.’

— Han Goyo (Lamb) ♥×1
— Reporter
— Obtained Item: Money (999,999,999 G).
— Items in Possession: Happy Smile Candy,
Portable Music Device, Lost Master’s Signet Ring, Dark Star Fragment (1), Holographic Badge (1).
— Current Status: Fear.

A system window appeared before me.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

You could obtain more hearts as you progressed.

In Call of Void, you always started the game with one extra life.

At the moment, my respawn point was probably set at the hotel.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

When I played the cult leader route, I had set my respawn point on the cult’s altar.

‘In any case, I only have one heart right now, so I have to be careful.’

I had even performed the miracle of resurrecting, just as befitted the leader of a cult.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

I had been hoping I could use Divine Protection, so I couldn’t help feeling a little disappointed before continuing to examine the rest.

I examined the window from top to bottom, but there was no list of abilities.

A new section called Current Status had appeared, and then there was the list of items.

It seemed I couldn’t use Proclamation, Execution, Restriction, or Divine Protection on myself.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

My eyes flew wide open.

I had spent a fortune upgrading the hotel room, yet my money still displayed the maximum value.

That meant the actual amount exceeded the maximum the system could display.

‘What the hell is going on with my money?’

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

What the hell had he been doing in Call of Void?

Which meant that ridiculous amount had come entirely from his patients.

‘Don’t tell me… Is this because of Dominic?’

Since he had agreed to become my personal wallet, it seemed all of Dominic’s money had been added to mine.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Lost Master’s Signet Ring: A signet ring belonging to a person of noble lineage. amateur Anyone other than its true owner will feel profound sadness upon wearing it.

It was the ring the Butlers had given me.

Below that, I saw an unfamiliar item.

Even if someone told me he had already founded his own cult, I wouldn’t have been surprised in the slightest.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Butler I’m sorry.

Not even the item’s description gave any clue as to what it was for.

It said it was a signet ring, but there was no emblem engraved on it.

I stared at it for a few moments before returning it to my inventory.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

He’s going to remain in Call of Void forever.

Your Master isn’t going to return home anymore.

I silently apologized to the Cat Butler and the Rabbit Butler, promising myself that I would never take out that ring again.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Holographic Badge: Everything that exists in this world is connected as one.

Afterward, I took out the Holographic Badge Samra had given me.

Until then it had remained inactive, but now that I was inside the Trial, it could finally be activated.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

I didn’t know what it was for, but it didn’t seem harmful to carry it.

I activated it and read the description, but I still couldn’t understand what it meant.

In the end, I gave up trying to interpret it and pinned it inside my clothes, where it could barely be seen.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

Then another system window appeared.

Once I felt I had finished organizing everything, I decided to call it a day.

I put on my pajamas and lay down on the bed.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

The first day in Mournveil has ended.

Do you wish to sleep?
— Yes.
— No.

I chose “Yes,” and my vision went dark.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

With that optimistic thought, I ended the first day.

A great many things had happened, but somehow, I felt like I would manage to get through it.

And at the beginning of the second.

Content of I’m a Young God, Won’t You Raise Me? - Chapter 49 published by TrungTu Reads.

 

I died.
