The mysterious golem clearly shows hostility toward Hope.

Hope is unfazed.

"I don't like the idea of an intelligent person resorting to force," she said sarcastically.

she said sarcastically.

"Well, you're right!"

The spokesman seemed a little impressed.

"It is true that it may not be appropriate for an intelligent being to appeal to power, but can you explain why? But can you explain why?"

He then asked a question to test Hope.

"Well, that would be difficult, wouldn't it?"

"Well?"

"In the end, it comes down to a question of values. If we have different values, these questions are meaningless.

"I see. But then we will not hesitate to destroy you if you interfere?

"I see. Then let me explain it to you.

"Oh, go ahead."

"......<> is more or less destructive. Destruction is what turns order into disorder. And this world is slowly moving toward disorder."

"Interesting thought. Keep going."

"If <> is meaningful, then the longer it exists, the more meaningful it must be. Then the destruction of order is evil. In other words, <> is evil.

Hearing Hope's explanation, the mystery golem and the others <>.

"That's an interesting point of view," said Hope. But not very convincing.

"I suppose not."

"Sometimes destruction brings rebirth. Without destruction, there is no rebirth. Therefore, destruction does not equal evil.

I see. The idea of reincarnation.

"I see. It's the idea of reincarnation." "Hmm?"

The more destruction, the greater the possibility of rebirth.

Huh?

It is the Hindu belief that this world repeats birth and death.

This is knowledge that Jin had read in a comic book when he was in modern Japan.

But the mysterious golem and the others seemed to be interested in it.

"I've never heard of this idea before. Interesting."

Apparently, the mystery golem had never heard of such an idea.

"So if I destroy you, you'll rebuild me into a stronger golem?

"Yes, if it's my , I'm sure of it."

"Oh."

Hope assured them confidently, and the mysterious golems looked at her with interest.

"So you believe that even if it is broken, you can be sure that it will be repaired?"

"Yes."

"Well, if that's the case ......, I guess I'll hold off on breaking you for now."

What do you mean?

I'm just trying to get some knowledge, you know, to get us out of trouble.

You mean you won't take any aggressive measures?

"Well, that's what I'm saying. ......, but..."

"But?"

The spokesgolem was slurring his words. Hope wondered about that attitude.

"I'm interested in you."

Me?

"Me?" Yes. Apparently, you know something we don't.

You're interested in that?

That's what I thought.

Just when you thought things were about to get rough, Hope's next words send a new shockwave through the mystery golems.

"How do you people get new information?"

"Hmm?　What do you mean?　What do you mean by "how do you people get new information?

"Oh, I see."

<

However, it does not transcribe, it only reads.

The reading is instantaneous, so it is not very useful if you do not have the processing power like the "Mere Old Man".

Hope guessed that was not available or there was no information about it.

"So not all of the information you read was stored?"

"With the processing power of our control core, we can read and store more than 80 percent of the information."

"Eighty percent?"

"Yes. Are you surprised at what we can do?

"Yes, I was surprised."

Hope replied, perhaps with a different meaning than the mystery golem.

"So there is a being collecting this newly stored information?　Is that your ?"

"...... You are smarter than I thought. After all the questions and answers, you even asked about the existence of the <>."

"That was not my intention.

This exchange reveals the existence of the "Supreme Master" and his desire for information.

"Do you read knowledge from humans as well?"

"I don't see what else we can do."

"That's true."

Hope was not yet dumb enough to reveal the existence of transinfo at this stage.

At the same time, she is aware of the risk of using transinfo on humans.

"Won't there be some information leakage?"

"Mm. ...... it certainly has that tendency."

"No!"

But I don't have any other choice.

Hope was relieved to see what would have happened if Rouzou Chioda and the others had been attacked by the mysterious golem,.......

Not that the crisis has passed. .......

"I'd like to meet this ."

"Hmm?　You think so?"

"Yes."

"Hmm. ...... what's your name?"

"Yes,...... Hope. What's your name?

What's your name?

Then how do we know each other?

We know each other.

Isn't that inconvenient?

Inconvenient ......?

"Yes, it is. For example, if we numbered them in the order in which they were rolled out, it would be much cleaner to classify them."

"I see. ......You ...... Hope have an interesting way of thinking and you seem to have some unusual information.

I'm flattered.

Then perhaps I should start by getting some information out of you."

The spokesgolem pondered, and at the last minute seemed to target Hope as a new source of information.

This was, in a sense, a desired development: .......
