A NEET’s Guide to the Parallel World: Healer, the Strongest Cheat? Chapter 90: Candidate

What do you an, grown accustod to the abyss?

When the understanding between host and the abyss is deepened it is shown in the eyes. Once the host and the abyss completely understand each other it can be seen in both eyes.

In other words, when I grow more familiar with the abyss my eye turns red?

More or less, strong emotions also begin to show in the eyes as well.

I see, so it was my problem after all.

What about the aning behind the kings candidate and the other half?

The doppler also said sothing about the kings candidate before as well.

I dont know either.

Huh? you dont know?

Bell says he doesnt know, does he just not want to tell ?

Theres no way thats true is there? What do you an you dont know?

I cant help that I dont know, theres no information like that in my mory.

No information? Yet you still know the words?

Correct.

Isnt that weird?

Weird or not thats all the information I have. I have mory about past candidates but none of them were my master so even if I try to follow it theres no additional information.

What do you an past candidates?

My questions werent over yet.

Theyre candidates who ca into contact with their other halves just like master. A lady knight, so villager, etc.

What the? Im honestly not interested in that at all.

I should have asked that Doppler.

Nah, it probably didnt know either.

How would you know that?

The dungeon is masters property but I am in charge of it. Nobody should know what I dont know but !

In charge. Right.

So soone other than the owner is in charge how does this work exactly?

Its easy, everything belongs to master so its all according to masters will.

Right. And the other half is?

Before explaining that I have so.ething to say.

Bell seed to change.

The abyss is too powerful to accept all at once so its shared between master and I.

aning, half is in , and the other half is inside you.

Correct, and as you get used to it I will give you more.

So, what happens to you after I have it all?

What happens to ? Nothing? Youre just one step closer to being king.

One step closer to being king, when I dont even know what the king is in the first place.

.king huh

What is the king exactly?

Master, youre supposed to figure it out for yourself. While I know sothings I do not know everything.

Hey, what have you been talking about? The abyss and stuff?

Toa slid into the conversation.

Hmm? Oh its my magic. Also Bell is apparently half of .

Half of you? What are you talking about? And whos bell?

Oh right I guess I only said I knew him, maybe I should introduce them.

Hello ladies, I am Belphegor the lazy other half.

Bell bowed like he was so kind of nobleman.

What does lazy other half an?

Toa asked.

What does it an? It doesnt an anything. Im the other half of the lazy master so Im the lazy other half. Its simple.

Why is Nito lazy? Hes been working really hard!

Toa praised ? I wish shed do that more often.

I dont know? The other half just has the characteristics of the host. Abyss Magic is like that.

Wait a minute?? What do you an by abyss magic is like that?

It seems like theres sothing that Bell hasnt told yet.

Hmm? Oooh I forgot.

Bell opened another beer, it was his third one.

Basically abyss magic is born from the subconscious mind of the host.

Subconscious?

Bell thought for a mont.

For instance, masters specialty Erosion wave

I wouldnt call it my specialty

Basically there is sothing inside master that wants to erode things so the magic was born.

Sufilia seed to rember sothing.

So does the magic Nito used then also represent his subconscious?

Used when?

Im not sure what she ant.

The magic you used after erasing Ichijos arm.

Oh the birth of regretto be honest I dont really understand this magic either. Its not like any of the other magic that I possess.

Well, theres no doubt that it was masters will since the abyss cant do what you dont want it too.

So in other words the abyss embodied the will of the host? Then whats up with the crying Goddess?

Master?

Hmm?

Bell stared into my eyes.

Dont worry, and do not doubt. The abyss is on your side. If you dont want to destroy sothing it wont be destroyed.

Bell said the sa thing as before.

Yeah, I get it.

There is no magic that is as versatile and safe as the abyss is. That mage just spread the wrong interpretation, the king is no fool.

If possible Id like for you to explain more. Since its about Id like to know as much as possible.

The other three looked bored Nem was sitting on the sofa swinging her legs back and forth.

Hey bell do you have anything besides beer? Like so juice and snacks maybe?

Hm? ah, yeah I have so! Wait a mont!

A few monts later Bell ca back with snacks and juice and laid then out in the table.

Please dig in.

I took 4 cups out of the cupboard and we began to to relieve the stress from the dungeon.

I was in my own room, I had begun searching for anything that was different but everything had been reproduced perfectly. Shelves packed with Manga and gas, even the ga that was laying on the desk.

I opened the window, the scenery was the sa but I doubt the inside of the surrounding buildings would be reproduced since I dont actually rember that.

Would you call this being hosick?

For a mont I missed my actual room.

Master?

Bell was standing outside the door.

Hmm?

I forgot to ntion this but I cant leave the dungeon. When you leave Ill need to be in wand form.

Then Bell turned into the want with a poof.

..a talking wand.

Bell returned to his original form.

So does this an thst weve cleared the dungeon?

Hmm? The only thing that happened was that I t master. Like I said thats the whole reason this place existed in the first place.

Wrong way of thinking huh?

They call it the end of the dreaming adventurer, they gather from all over to challenge the Labyrinth. But its not a Labyrinth, its just my house..

All of the challengers were dead but..

It didnt have anything to do with right?

Master?

Bell looked at oddly.

Its nothing.

I left the room after that.

Whats going to happen to the dungeon after this?

After we leave its over, the dungeon will disappear from the world. And return to ikai.

ikai? Whats that?

Bell looked annoyed.

I dont have that information.

It seems like Bells mory is fragnted.

Well whatever. If you rember let know.

Of course.

Bell looked depressed, I guess thats the aning behind the other half. Depressed when Im depressed, happy when Im happy etc. I ca here to have my questions answered but the more answers I get the more questions I have. Its no use trying to rush Bell since he doesnt seem to know anyway. For now Ill just put it off and continue my adventure.
