Chapter 507

"Solemn Earth Armor encircles my body, Earth Fortress!"

As the incantation ended, with Roxy's staff planted in the ground, four earth walls rose up from the earth.

"Although it's a house made of earth, it can still keep out wind and rain; as long as it's not continuous heavy rain for days on end, softening the earth, there's no problem with safety."

Some refugees who had been shifted not too far away, and had now been found but had no place to stay, were arranged inside the earth fortresses.

And there were many such houses; besides Roxy helping with construction, Sylphy and Rudeus were also helping.

The Fittoa Region is recovering; although Broly will time-leap back in a dozen or so days, that doesn't hinder the people still alive in this loop from starting to rebuild their homeland.

"Broly-san..."

This day, Rudeus came over.

"What is it?"

Broly, who had just purchased grain from some unaffected places and transported it to the Fittoa Region, looked at the boy who had come over to this side and asked.

"It's about that Transmigrator girl."

Rudeus said.

"How is that person?"

"She's fine, it's just that I don't know how to arrange things for her."

"Just arrange a house made with Earth Magic for her like a refugee, and that settles it, right?"

Broly looked at Rudeus somewhat strangely.

"But the other party doesn't understand the language, nor the writing here; she simply cannot understand what others say."

"Aren't you able to communicate normally with the other party? You take care of her and it's done."

Broly said as a matter of course.

"I'd be quite willing, but..."

Rudeus couldn't very well say that he had fantasized about some wonderful future developments with that pretty girl as a fellow Transmigrator, perhaps revealing a lewd expression that was seen by the girl from another world, causing the girl who had transmigrated from his previous life world to now be very vigilant toward him.

"I have things to do too, providing clean water to the refugee camp every day, helping Teacher Roxy make earth fortresses and such.

More importantly, I live with my family, and I'm young; I can't very well tell my parents, 'This is my fellow countryman from my previous life, she has nowhere to go now, I plan to look after her.'"

"So?"

"So I thought, why not ask Broly-san to help take in my fellow countryman? Anyway, she can understand you, and you have Lilia-san and the others at home; I figure, temporarily helping look after an otherworld girl unfamiliar with the place, should be no problem either."

"Rudeus."

"Broly-san, please speak."

"First, my house isn't a daycare; when you were in your twenty-plus loop, you entrusted pregnant Lilia-san to my house, that was fine.

After all, Aisha that child, Roxy and I both like her quite a bit, but why now do you want to entrust another previous-life acquaintance?"

"Ah, s-sorry..."

Rudeus, reacting, hurriedly apologized, but Broly is just too reliable, reliable to the point that whenever he encounters a problem he can't solve himself, he runs to request help and easily obtains a solution.

So, when encountering difficult troubles, Rudeus subconsciously thinks of Broly, this Saiyan big brother he's known since birth and who knows his Transmigrator secret.

Broly's words made Rudeus suddenly realize that others' kindness to him is not something to be taken for granted.

"Th-then I'll go think of another way."

The boy said and prepared to leave.

"This is the last time; if there's still this kind of trouble of looking after someone in the future, please do it yourself."

"Broly-san~"

Rudeus was somewhat moved, turned back and wanted to pounce over, hug big brother, but was stopped by Broly raising a foot against his chest.

"Cut the empty talk here, go help Roxy and Sylphy and them with work."

"Okay, roger."

Rudeus stood at attention and saluted, walked toward the camp direction, then turned back again.

"Then I'll bring her over tonight and hand her to you?"

"Up to you."

Evening, Rudeus was followed by a black-long-straight girl, and the bandages on her head had already been removed, her clothes changed from the previous hospital gown to women's clothing more commonly seen in this world.

"Hey, Nanahoshi-san, this is Broly-san who's willing to take you in."

Hearing the boy's words, the girl looked at Broly with some vigilance.

"Rest assured, unlike this somewhat terrible guy me, Broly-san is already married, he definitely won't have any bad ideas about you."

The black-long-straight girl was silent for a while, then said thank you to Rudeus.

"Well then, Broly-san, she's entrusted to you."

"Mm."

Broly nodded.

"Nanahoshi-san, if you have time later, I'll come visit you."

Rudeus finished speaking and left.

"I'm Broly, did Rudeus tell you about me?"

"He did, and he also said you're a Saiyan from the Dragon Ball World."

The girl nodded.

"What do you go by?"

"Nanahoshi Shizuka."

The black-long-straight girl spoke her name.

"Because of Rudeus's request, I'll temporarily look after you for a while; later I'll have someone arrange a single room for you, provide three meals a day, and what you need to do is adapt, hmm, forget it, you live however you want, anyway it won't be long before this world's time rewinds."

"May I ask, what does this mean?"

"That's not something you need to know, Miss Lilia. Prepare a room for her."

Broly's house was built that very day, and compared to the mud huts built with Earth Fortress magic, his also had a Transmute Mud to Stone spell, plus bedding and furniture purchased from elsewhere, making it far better than the refugees' temporary shelters.

Nanahoshi Shizuka had many doubts, but at least she had gone from sleeping on a straw pile to sleeping on a wooden bed with bedding.

"Do you need me to do something?"

The next day, when she was called down for breakfast, Nanahoshi Shizuka asked the Saiyan boy across from her directly.

Four days had passed since coming to this world, and she had thought things through; leaving other matters aside, the most important thing right now was to survive in this unfamiliar Isekai.

"What can you do?"

Hearing this, Broly countered with a question.

"My home economics grades were good; washing vegetables, cooking, cleaning, doing housework — I can do all of that."

Nanahoshi Shizuka answered.

Of course, she knew some other things too, but she didn't know if they'd be useful, so she didn't mention them.

"That works. You can stay by Miss Lilia's side and do some things, and while you're at it, learn this world's language and writing."

Another two weeks passed, and just when Nanahoshi Shizuka could speak simple Isekai language, Broly began his 40th time rewind.

41st Loop. Events before Dragon Calendar Year 416 need no further elaboration; mainly let's talk about the things that changed.

First, Broly found Rigelud and told him about the Cursed Magic Spear matter that he hadn't mentioned last loop; second was Kishirika — this Demon Emperor had given him a Magic Eye last loop, so he naturally fulfilled his promise and took care of her meals.

Right after this Demon Emperor revived, Broly found her, brought her home; Kishirika didn't understand Broly's explanation about time rewinding, but she was very satisfied that this world actually had a Loyal Retainer like Broly waiting for her revival, her demon heart greatly pleased, and she promised him another reward.

In response, Broly chose the Foresight Magic Eye again, but not for himself — for Sauros; then he directly summoned the Human God, letting Eris's grandfather, the actual ruler of Fittoa Region, see the Shift Disaster matter.

Unsurprisingly, in the 7th month of Year 417, Fittoa Region began a strategy of completely evacuating the population out of Fittoa Region, the reason being a Magic Power disaster that might sweep the entire Fittoa Region was coming.

Many people had complaints about this, but under Lord Sauros's firm insistence, the territory's population still evacuated to surrounding territories for the time being.

"Boom—"

On the day after Rudeus's birthday, the 41st Loop's Fittoa Region once again saw a Shift Disaster, and because the evacuation was timely, almost no one in Fittoa Region was caught up in it.

And at the exact center where the Shift Disaster occurred, the Isekai plant-girl Nanahoshi Shizuka arrived once more, and Broly took her in once again.

Just when Broly thought this loop would pass uneventfully, bad news from elsewhere reached here.

The Shift Disaster indeed didn't cause excessive losses to Fittoa Region, but Magic Beasts suddenly shifted to other places rampaging and destroying things appeared on a large scale.

The source of this news was Sylphy hearing it from Princess Ariel; the little guy still remembered the other party's distress from last loop, so on the day the Shift Disaster occurred, she requested Broly to make a trip to Ars.

After saving her, he was warmly invited by her to be a guest in the Royal Palace.

But half a month later, from this Second Princess's mouth, he learned of the Shift Disaster blooming across Asura Kingdom.

In response, nobles whose territories suffered losses united, preparing to find trouble with the Boreas Family; after all, the Boreas Family had evacuated their population early and suffered little loss, while others suffered major losses because of this disaster.

Upon learning the news, Broly was also somewhat speechless; while Sauros Boreas and other nobles wrangled, he performed his 41st time rewind.

42nd Loop, 9th month of Dragon Calendar Year 417, after Broly evacuated Fittoa Region's population to safety, he specially acted to kill or drive away the Magic Beasts existing within Fittoa Region.

Just when he thought this time there'd be no problem, the 41st Loop's Magic Beast invasion of towns caused by the Shift Disaster indeed didn't appear, but towns everywhere saw large amounts of rocks and trees falling from the sky, many houses smashed and destroyed, many people crushed to death by falling rocks and trees, and investigation showed these rocks and trees were precisely what had been shifted away from Fittoa Region.

"Why would it be like this?"

Broly couldn't figure it out no matter how he thought, so he gathered a group of people and began discussing the Shift Disaster situation.

Then, they reached a speculative conclusion.

The Six-Faced World's way of balancing internal conditions — the Shift Disaster is merely the surface phenomenon.

And causing some personnel casualties during the Shift Disaster might be the result the Six-Faced World itself wants to obtain.

Rudeus used computers and data as analogies — transmitting new data, deleting old data, that sort of thing; Fittoa Region's data ran off, so the Six-Faced World supplemented it from elsewhere.

To verify this speculative conclusion's correctness, Broly spent two more loops' time, controlling variables during two Dragon Calendar Year 417 Shift Disasters to observe the respective results caused.

The result was that the 42nd Loop Rudeus's speculative idea was correct; the Shift Disaster's outbreak purpose isn't shifting, but to create more deaths, and through the event of massive lives dying, make room to accommodate the Isekai girl's Fate in this world.

And after discovering the problem, the most important thing is how to solve it; 45th Loop, Broly planned to rely on his own powerful strength to clash with the Shift Disaster, or rather, the Six-Faced World's balance rules.

After evacuating Fittoa Region's population to safety, he didn't drive away the Magic Beasts existing in Fittoa Region, but after the Magic Beast Shift Disaster occurred again, he spread his Qi Perception, and at his terrifying speed patrolled the entire Six-Faced World; the vast majority of Magic Beasts shifted into towns, before they could even start destroying towns, would be sanctioned by an Energy Beam falling from the sky, their skulls blasted apart.

"Worthy of Broly-san, easily doing what normal people can't!"

Three days later, upon learning Broly had become a human-body patrol ship, single-handedly killing the vast majority of Magic Beasts shifted into towns, Rudeus began sucking up to him extensively.

Only, Rudeus's flattery was a bit early; merely half a month later, after Fittoa Region's population originally migrated back, a new Shift Disaster occurred without any warning in the skies above Fittoa Region.

After that, another three loops passed, Broly tried three more methods to avoid the Shift Disaster's terrible results, then discovered no matter what, many people had to die.

"The Fate Nanahoshi Shizuka gained entering the Six-Faced World corresponds to intelligent life's Fate, so trying to use Magic Beasts to replace the lives this Shift Disaster needs to sacrifice doesn't work either; only humans or other races' intelligent lives can."

The Shift Disaster is the Six-Faced World's sacrifice to maintain internal balance, and the condition for completing this sacrifice is that people must die; even Broly cannot, without destroying this world itself, reverse the fundamental logic this world operates on.

But the good news is, the Six-Faced World has no subjective consciousness, merely operating according to the fundamental logic rules it was created with.

One only needs to satisfy the quantity of lives the Shift Disaster requires sacrificing; as for exactly which intelligent lives are sacrificed, the world itself doesn't care.

In other words, Broly can actively choose some sacrificial offerings, let some people die in this Shift Disaster occurring in Dragon Calendar Year 417, thereby reducing the Shift Disaster's impact on others.

As for candidates, there really are some — those guys who should have been dealt with by Orsted before the new loop began.

"Everyone, your day of death has arrived; originally, you should have been killed in the past, but I let you live until now; today, it's time to exert the value of your lives' existence..."

The 3,224 people who should have been killed — over 200 died during years of imprisonment as prisoners, and the remaining 3,000-plus had the fortune to become this Shift Disaster's sacrificial offerings; the luckiest bastard lived an extra ten-odd years.

Thieves, or Slave Traders, or cruel Nobles — guys of various identities, looking at the boy floating in mid-air speaking these words, some cursed furiously, some had hollow eyes showing despair, and none of this affected the Shift Disaster's arrival.

These people were shifted away — some falling from the sky and smashed into meat paste, some falling into Magic Beast piles becoming Magic Beast food, those falling into volcanoes directly cremated, those falling into water, because their hands and feet were bound by ropes, desperately experiencing the sensation of drowning.

Of course, there were also some lucky ones — like Darius falling into a town, he got help from passersby to escape and survived.

"You lowlife, hand over the money on you."

Just as this dirty fatso grabbed the neck of the passerby who helped him, wanting to repay kindness with ingratitude and rob a wave of money as travel expenses to return from Wanglong Kingdom to Asura Kingdom, a streak of light fell from the sky and directly evaporated him on the spot.

To avoid similar Shift Magic Beast disaster events occurring, after the 3,000-plus sacrificial offerings were shifted away, Broly specially made a trip out to kill the lucky survivors who lived, avoiding the possibility of a Shift Evil People disaster appearing.

"The scale of the Transfer Calamity has decreased; we should increase the quantity of sacrifices."

Loop 49, an effective method to reduce the Transfer Calamity was confirmed, but it's a pity the number of people acting as transfer sacrifices is somewhat insufficient.

However, it doesn't matter; three-legged Toad People might be hard to find in This World, but two-legged villains are still quite plentiful in This World.

Loop 50 arrives; Broly takes the high-spirited Eris to become a Heroic Swordsmanship Swordsman, and while performing Heroic Swordsmanship, he Magic Bring Along Magic And Magic But brings back the guys who should have been killed to the large Prison in Roa City for Imprisonment, and by the time the Transfer event of Dragon Calendar Year 417 arrives in This Loop, he has gathered five thousand people.

Magic And after sacrificing over five thousand people, the Transfer Calamity occurring in Dragon Calendar Year 417 had no further problems.

【March 7, Year 418, it has been nearly half a year since I Arrived in This Different World; I have already Adapted to This World's life, learned some of This World's writing and language, but I still miss my family from the Previous World very much...】

【April 2, Year 418, I asked Miss Roxy if there was a way to return to the Original World, and Obtained a possible answer, which made me overjoyed.

But after I Pursued Ask, I was Told that Anti-Summoning Magic like this all requires research, and she doesn't know what situation the Magic that made me Transmigrate here was, so there's no way for her to do anything about it either.】

【April 3, I Requested Miss Roxy to accept me as a disciple and Teach me Magic, but Obtained the answer that as a Different World person I have no Magic Talent, which dealt me a heavy blow.】

【April 10, this whole week I've been thinking about how to Request Miss Roxy to Help Me research Magic to Transmigrate back, but This Kind of Thing is Unreasonable; Miss Roxy's whole family and I have no relation whatsoever, she took me in only for the sake of Fellow Transmigrator, but who is a Reincarnator, Rudeus, so making further Requests seems a bit Excessive...】

【April 11, I went to find that Fellow Reincarnator Rudeus, wanting him to think of a way regarding Transmigration back for the sake of them coming from the Same World, but the other party revealed a Lewd smile, and I was Frightened away.】

【April 12, the other party came over to Apology to me, and pointed out a Clear Path for me...】

"I don't know about other people, but as for Broly-san, he might be able to let you possess Magic Power, thereby Obtaining the Capability to research Anti-Summoning Magic on your own."

【Broly, I know, a Saiyan with a very easygoing Personality, but my Intersection with him is Not Much; I only know that Miss Roxy, Eris, and those two girls Sylphy are all his wives...】
