“B…but!”
I explained for the paladin who was flustered and screaming.
“Don’t worry. I will handle the doppelganger before I leave.”
“Do you have a way?”
Said the paladin, nodding his head.
“It takes some time. About 17….16 hours.”
In fact I could find it out right now.
Because doppelganger was the magician that stretched out there.
But there was something to learn from the magician, so I would leave him.
If the doppelganger took off his skin and expose himself, he would lose the scrupulous know-how and sensibility even though he could have the memory of the former host.
It was like watching a movie that was about someone else’s memory, and what he had was only the experience of watching that movie.
He have had all those short memories in the past.
Above all, there was no need to eliminate doppelganger now.
I would move to 17 stage after 17 hours.
The situation here would naturally end if I disappeared.
Because the situation was created for a challenger and made by constant repeating.
Of course, I’m thinking of getting rid of the doppelganger before I’m taken to the stage on the 18th floor to get some experience.
“You don’t believe me?”
I said to the paladin who looked at me with suspicion.
The paladin didn’t reply.
Let’s change to a nearby target.
“You don’t believe me, either?”
“I believe you!”
The knight answered immediately.
Now, the paladin also began to look at the knight with the look of a madman, like what mercenary did.

“Maybe just keep our eyes on each other until that time.”
“You still don’t know who the doppelganger is?”
“Yes, I know. But it’ll be unconvincing until I make it public. I don’t want to make a fuss. Just think about who is the doppelganger and wait.”
The back of fallen magician moved.
This was too obvious.
I was also worried that I might be caught by others and attacked before 17 hours passed.
“And there is something you have to do.”
“What…we have to do?”
The mercenary asked me in a loud voice.
I still hated that voice.
Mercenary had a really bad feeling toward me now.
Not for special reason, just because I beat the adventurer up, who were very close to him.
Once again, the adventurer made me slightly uncomfortable. At the cost, he was now on the side and spit.
That adventurer was the only one here who was losing his mind at all.
“It’s easy.”
“So what is it? It made me nervous… ”
“Just tell me what you know. Magic, swordsmanship, knowledge of the divine power are all okay.”
Shouted the mercenary, looking startled.
Please, if that person can be quiet.
“Is it OK to omit other people’s core technology like that? No matter how strong you are, and even though you hold the lives of all of us in your hand, you can’t do this. My combat skills are never…….”
“I don’t need yours. Don’t worry.”
The chattering mercenary closed his mouth.
The mercenary seemed to be hurt rather than relieved.
He twisted his head awkwardly and turned his face to the paladin.

“Yes, that’s how divinity is supposed to be. But in fact, there is no such thing as a god in this world. They’re all gods from other worlds.”
“From another world?”
“I’m not sure, but I guess so. All the gods of the Hundred Gods Temple appeared in the form of God from the beginning.. ”
It was unexpected.
I never thought about a thing before it became a god.
“It wouldn’t be easy for a person to enter the stage of transcendentalism, surpass that stage and become a god. No matter how much they don’t care about the world, only the world knows the process.”
This made sense.
“According to records from other levels, there are countless ungodly people who want to be gods themselves while serving God. It’s embarrassing, but there are such people in the temple, too. Maybe that’s why the temple often asks about the temple in other world. “
The paladin explained enthusiastically while his unsavory attitude had gone.
He seemed to think that this was his professional field, there was no need to keep it confidential.
It was interesting, and I listened to it carefully.
“They said the transcender became gods at one point. For example, in a certain dimension, people are regarded as the existence of God, and people serve and support them.”
Now even the examples were mentioned.
I had never heard of this before.
“But one day, that existence talked to his followers that he became a god. Just think about what kind of stage that existence was at that time.”
The paladin seemed to be stunned, slobbered and lifted his neck.
[Ninety-nine gods in the Hundreds God Temple are looking at you.]

This situation had happened before.
It was that time when the king received black stones.
I couldn’t know the details of vote.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmBut I would guess roughly.
The paladin stopped talking suddenly.
He was stuttering, as if he was buffering, and he continued for a long time.
“Suddenly I can’t remember where it comes from. But I am sure I have heard of it.”
The paladin looked not very good.
I hoped that he considered it as his memory was fading.
It was quite painful for someone to be conscious about his memory.
“It doesn’t matter. You can tell us when you think of it. ”
The paladin said yes.
This led to the discovery that the strength that flowed out of the black stone was related to the divine power.
For now, it was enough.
The paladin said he would think about it carefully and walked to the corner, and I started to look at the knight.
He was around the paladin when he talked all the time.
Nothing special, he seemed to try to butt in if he knew anything.
However, he kept quiet without a word. Maybe it was because he knew nothing about what the paladin talked.
“Is it my turn?”
“Yes, talk about your swordsmanship.”
* * *
“The first forefather to invent such a light sword…….”
“No, I know this. I want to know the 3rd type of light sword.”
“You know a lot about light sword. Just like you said, light sword has three types. The first type is how it first appeared in the world. At that time, the mainland was in chaos due to the Army War…..”
“No, I know it, too. Any information about the 3rd type of light sword?”
“That’s too much. The information about 3rd type is countless. The transmission of not only the inventor but also the knight after is countless. For example…”
“No, I’m not saying that!”
You stupid!
I couldn’t swear in the face of the knight who was keen on observing me, so I swore inside.
After that he had been saying something irrelevant.
At last, I just let him talk, as he wanted.
Then the story told by the knight proceeded step by step, and soon I heard what I wanted.
But, of course, I spent a looot of time to wait.
