Posts from 🍁Nine Ancient Obelisks Auto-translated

- Hello, hello, Asmidulik. Just a moment.
Zavirushka gets distracted by another message, finds a teacher for Ferrusa to ask, explains the situation to him, and returns to the student he already knows well.
- No, I'm not planning to. I wouldn't forgive myself if I left the students during such a difficult time for them.

—Great to hear! Nothing inspires people more than visible support. We will definitely show it to these undead!
Inspired by the royal gathering, the guy completely forgot his recent doubts and Beznyadegu for a while. Perhaps if he knew the history of the Many-Layered Monolith, he would have realized that the enemy is also capable of multi-stage planning and strategy, but now in his imagination the undead seemed no more than an unconscious mass.
- What is the mood among the students? I suppose many are worried about the recent events?

Camistella wonders if she needs to assign specific spells to the active slots or if she can use all the learned ones simultaneously. "That's fair," Camistella replied, having no idea who Sophia is, but guessing that she is a deity from beyond Anuzish. In reality, besides Rinze, the lunar elf had no knowledge of the pantheon outside her native world.

Meanwhile, Reik Aizett introduces himself to Ferrus and asks before answering:
- What do you think about the upcoming war?

- I... - Ferrus pondered for a couple of seconds. - I haven't really thought much about it yet, if you're talking about a deep analysis of the situation and everything else. There hasn't been enough time, not to mention work. Although it's clear that there's nothing good about it, and everyone will have a hard time, - the Sugarian paused. - But the time will come when I can devote time to it, and for now, I need to do my job.

Meanwhile, Erika went to Kuromod to find out how things were going with the training and so on.
Of course, before entering, she didn't forget to "search for magic."

No traces of the supernatural were found, but that's not surprising, as the store turned out to be empty.

"It's great to hear! Nothing inspires people more than visible support. We'll definitely show those undead!"
Inspired by the royal gathering, the guy completely forgot his recent doubts and Hopelessness for a while. Perhaps, if he knew the history of the Many-Layered Monolith, he would have realized that the enemy might also be capable of multi-stage planning and strategy, but now, in his imagination, the undead seemed no more than an unconscious mass.
"What's the mood among the students? I suppose many are worried about the recent events?"

Zavirushka familiarly ruffled the guy's hair.
- They are worried, of course. Some have written applications for a leave of absence or even for expulsion. In such times, the desire for knowledge is one of the victims. It's very sad, but that's life.

Camistella remembers whether she needs to put any specific spells in the active slots or if she can use all the learned ones at the same time.

There are no more slots.

"Fair enough," Camistella replied, having no idea who Sophia was, but guessing that she was a deity from beyond Anuzish.

In fact, besides Rinze, the lunar elf had no knowledge of the pantheon outside her native world.

- I don't see any enthusiasm in you, so I'll draw her on the road. Let's go faster.

No traces of the supernatural were found, but that's not surprising, as the store turned out to be empty.

"They probably took advantage of the king's offer to get away from here," thought Erika and headed towards the Temple of Nanaia.

She wasn't planning on going inside, so she just "inspected" it from a safe distance.

- I... - Ferrus paused for a couple of seconds. - I haven't really thought about it deeply, if we're talking about a thorough analysis of the situation and everything else. Not enough time has passed, let alone the workload. Although, it's clear that there's nothing good about this, and everyone will have a hard time, - the mercenary paused. - But the time will come when I dedicate time to this, and for now, I need to do my job.

- You're not a skeleton or a zombie to be occupied with only one thought. - ... - I am convinced that the Haranian Empire does not deserve the right to exist, so I will do everything in my power to help Asuguh defeat it. Achieving this goal is worth any sacrifice, so I would like the citizens to think about something other than saving their own skins.

Zavirushka playfully ruffled the young man's hair.
- They are worried, of course. Some have written applications for a leave of absence or even for withdrawal. In times like these, the desire for knowledge is one of the sacrifices. It's very sad, but that's life.

—Heh-heh. —automatically adjusting his collar, he sighs understandingly. —Never mind, times will come when we'll need to build a new building for those who want to study. Perhaps some wise Zimivian proverb would be appropriate here, but unfortunately, I'm not very good at them... But what about the current curriculum? Has anything new appeared in advanced economics? Of course, there probably won't be time, —"The Mentor will definitely give a very important assignment soon!", —But as they say, it doesn't hurt to ask...

On her way to the Temple, Erika encounters an unfamiliar man.
- Gillion Presmeitin, - he introduced himself, - may I ask you to spare a few minutes of your time? You seem like someone who cares about the moral values of society.

On the way to the Temple, Erika is crossed by a man she does not know.
- Gilion Presmeitin, - he introduced himself, - may I ask you to spare me a few minutes of your time? You look like someone who cares about the moral foundations of society. 

- Yes, of course, how can I be of help? - Erika replied.

—Hehe. —he absentmindedly adjusts his collar, sighing knowingly. —Never mind, the time will come when we'll need to build a new wing for those who want to join. Perhaps some wise Zimivian proverb would be appropriate here, but unfortunately, I'm not very familiar with them... Well, what's new with the curriculum? Has anything new appeared in advanced economics? It's unlikely there will be time, —"The Mentor will surely give a very important assignment soon!", —But as they say, it doesn't hurt to ask...

—"Inspiration is the ability to put yourself in a working state," —the mistress of northern proverbs and quotes suggested to him, —so the main thing is not to give up, not to wait idly, and not to be lazy, and then everything will work out for us, especially since the villain is undead, and combat morale bonuses don't apply to the undead!.. But with programs now, it's difficult; there's nothing for students with an irregular schedule.

– But you can fix that by telling me more about Sophia, – Camistella laughed sweetly.

After this, the spiritual friends set out on their journey to Enlil. During this trip, the Lunarian filled her diary:

Days:

It's a pity that Camistella doesn't remember most of the days...

1) The day she met Phaineant. That was so long ago... back at the very beginning of Camistella's long-awaited freedom from her adoptive parents' control.
2) The day she joined the Guild of Wonders and arrived in Shingen. A significant moment, as choosing a guild turned out to be quite difficult. Camistella was torn between art and magic.
3) The day of the black knight's attack. Still a mysterious and incomprehensible phenomenon. What actually happened then?
4) The day Kimchilla left. The day Camistella became the owner of the mansion. Everything changed then... that was when she truly became herself.
5) The day of filling the diary. The capital, Erika, Phaineant, a wonderful little homemaker ???.

Beliefs:

6) Church of Anuzish. Worshiping the world as a whole and denying divine incarnations when there is Akonia... sounds silly.
7) Church of Arselia. Better not to get involved with those holy folk one too many times. No, we are all in the same boat, of course, but there are too many black pages in the past.
8) Sect of Akonia. This world belongs to Akonia. Her existence is undeniable, and her power irresistible. She walked among us, and by her will, we are cut off from other worlds.
9) Zshusyiksidziré. They say this path can grant immortality. And also death. And it involves a lot of water. Camistella is not religious enough for all that.
10) Sheiris. Luck wouldn't hurt any of us, but obsessing over it is somehow strange. Relying only on luck is so... overconfident!
11) Nanayya. Make love, not war. 0% judgment, 100% understanding.
12) Rinze. We all try to preserve free will, but we don't know why we need it. Can anyone say with certainty that Rinze is wrong? To her face – probably not.

Countries:

13) Asuguh. Great, mighty, home.
14) Calcite. Seems like an enemy, but then again maybe not... they say a truly outstanding woman is now leading it.
15) Tung. It no longer exists. Delightful.
16) Harran Empire. We all have a pretty good chance of not living in it soon... oops...
17) Margel. The heart of the world, the stronghold of Akonia; nobody knows what's on its mind. This is where Camistella's adoptive parents once fled from. Would she like to visit it... too complex a question.
18) Mitsurugi Islands. Now here is somewhere I'd like to be. The homeland of everything most beautiful and interesting in the world.
19) Lunaria. A distant and unfamiliar homeland. They say Lunarians are very different and don't live at all like humans. She probably will never understand them. Neither the light nor the dark ones.
20) Zimivia. It seems it was destroyed. Or almost destroyed. Or not destroyed at all... who knows! But a legacy remained. And it is very funny. As are all the speakers of that particular accent.

Cities:

Margel could have been here a second time, but Camistella knew almost nothing about it as a city.

21) Enlil. The city of beauty and art, Camistella's hometown. Home and beloved.
22) Shingen. The city of magic and magical scammers. Rid it of the followers of pseudo-science – and it will be wonderful.
23) Sizki. The capital. Large and full of opportunities. ??? is the best place.

Locations:

24) Camistella's (Kimchilla's) Mansion. If you don't praise yourself, no one will. One of the best mansions in Enlil.
25) Phaineant's Studio. Camistella visits here often. For an old, kind friend lives here.
26) "The Kind Manticore". Druzh is gone... and that's wonderful. As for what happened to his establishment... it doesn't matter.
27) "Chara". Camistella used to dislike this place... until she bought her first pair of shoes here.
28) "Symphony of Happiness". How can one be on their knees for a whole year?
29) Lodoss Family Farm. The main supplier of fermented milk products. Yogurt is in the heart.
30) Guild of Arts. Sorry, parents, it didn't work out.
31) Shinli. A strange duet of a pretty man and an overtly ugly woman.
32) Adventurers' Guild. The folks from here have solved many problems in Enlil and beyond. They deserve respect.
33) Enlil Administration. Surprisingly warlike for a city of beauty and art.
34) Enlil Transport Station. Camistella is well known here, as she often travels to Shingen and the capital.
35) Camistella's House. Given to the administration. Probably someone else lives there now.
36) Shingen Administration. Much softer and kinder than in Enlil. Surprising.
37) Guild of Wonders. No longer any desire to go here, but it is still Camistella's guild. This is where she met Erika.
38) Shingen Transport Station. And Camistella is well known here too.
39) "Mysterious Star". Mysteriously disappeared. And it was a good place... this is exactly where Camistella bought Nebos.
40) "Mania of Research". Heresy. Burn the heresy!
41) "Kalamandra". A strange establishment, but the meat is tasty.
42) Erika's House. As ascetic as she is herself.
43) Church of Anuzish. They should have built a holy Temple to Akonia instead. That would be far more logical.
44) Sizki Transport Station. Camistella is only slightly known here, but it's still an important strategic point.
45) "Mazzard". Glory to domestic journalism!
46) Royal Palace. This is where Phaineant's serpent fell asleep forever, and Kimchilla fell into a deep depression. A dangerous place. And the heart of Asuguh.
47) Temple of Nanayya. This place did not deserve the harassment.
48) Great Library of Sizki. If you want to find something out – this is the place.
49) Notice Board. This is where you can learn about a grandmother who lost her frying pan. Or about the fall of Tung.
50) Lunarian Community. Camistella is no longer loved here. But my friendship with Erika is dearer to me than fellow tribesmen.
51) ???. Shop of the gods. Highly recommended!

Characters:

52) Kimchilla Pesheng. Ah, dear Kimchilla...
53) Phaineant Doln. An expert in scryms, a talented artist, and simply a friend.
54) Erika. She pays for her successes in life with a boring life. That's a pity, friend.
55) Nebos. The perfect form of life according to Nebos himself. Sworn enemy of boredom. What a cute little mushroom! Died...
56) Jack. The complete opposite of Nebos. But also a mushroom.
57) Black Knight. Scary, very scary, if we knew what it was, but we don't know what it is.
58) Tiozar Kisekus Aalur. By all accounts, the king of dreams and kindness itself. But some information about him causes vague concerns...
59) Lady Zutyshmu, presumably the mistress of the Harran Empire. They say she has preserved herself well. Perhaps soon I'll have to call her empress. Being lower undead.
60) Nariya es Diesra Arual. Mortal form of the goddess Akonia. The only true mistress of this world.
61) Lunamaria es Diesra Arual. Biological daughter of Akonia and current acting empress of Margel. Scary, very scary, if we knew what it was, but we don't know what it is.
62) Luca. Isn't she the ideal woman?
63) Shiza Sadame. The main thing is that the shoes are indeed of the highest quality.
64) Ikusa Sizki. Hm. Adopted. And the king has no biological relatives. Accordingly, there is no heir to the throne. Oh, better not ask about the royal family.
65) Britomarta Liss. Enlil will stand.
66) Issai Gassai. And the capital will also stand.
67) Minom Yao. A surprisingly sweet person. Ah yes, Shingen will stand!
68) Rinetta Gurianos. Could have become a direct boss, but fate decided otherwise.
69) Misty Rosalene. The great archmage of Asuguh... utterly crushed by the black knight and even lost her memory of it. That is so... frightening.
70) Druzh. Camistella was too afraid of such a wretched worm. Good riddance.

Camistella decided to stop at the round number for now, although she knew many more names.

- Is it just common courtesy, or is it because I have a "southern face"?.. No need to answer, it's a rhetorical question," Genza said, pulling a pencil with a Shirian pattern from his pocket and holding it over the paper as if it were a katana. "Alright, let's get started." 1. Myself, my friends, my word, and Shir. 2. I don't know much about it, but if this belief means one more attractive face in the pantheon, then I'm all for it. 3. A man must face all difficulties head-on, without hesitation and gritting his teeth; this is not required of a woman. 4. Money is trash. If it's real, it will come back. If the amount isn't critical, I'll forget about it. If neither, I'll remind him. If nothing helps, I'll learn a lesson. 5. I'll break in half, but I'll come back – otherwise, I won't be able to look my loved ones in the eye after death. 6. I don't know. 7. A lot can be forgiven to a woman, but for a man, only if he proves himself through action. 8. For all that is good, against all that is bad. And perhaps I would somehow study and regulate crime and fraud against its citizens in certain aspects. 9. One can try to suppress the natural instincts of living beings – through legislation or otherwise, but will it work? 10. Who doesn't judge by appearances? If its content matches its appearance, you're glad to be wrong; if it does, then you're right. 11. Not long ago, but not for the purpose of an attack. 12. I would see what kind of person he is. A scoundrel doesn't deserve leniency; getting into a difficult life situation is a different matter. 13. It depends on what the things are; if it's something worthwhile that she's having trouble with, isn't that the husband's duty? But if there are some "strange" situations, like pods, then it will require assessment and my judgment. 14. Yes, if the circumstances allow. 15. Not really, because I don't have reliable sources of income. 16. King Asuguha. 17. A good, healthy topic. 18. If the animals don't like it, they have the right to tear my throat out. Until then, I won't consider this a problem. 19. I don't really know what it does, but it has provided me with many good things, and besides, who else but us will support it? We didn't choose the boss, but it's our job to play along and help him do things more correctly, to the best of our ability. 20. If, in this way, I could achieve something great and good that only I can accomplish, and sacrifice the most meaningless and harmful forms of life, the absence of which no one would miss, why not? - But," he folded the paper with the answers. "Wouldn't it be fair to get the same from you in return, right?

- Yes, of course, how can I help you? - replied Erika.

- Our country is in a state of great cultural decline and needs immediate treatment, so I and my comrades are trying to collect signatures for a petition to the king to correct what will soon lead to irreversible consequences.
In short, the essence of the petition described by the activist was as follows:

*The need to ban the production, sale, and storage of literature, drawings, etc. of a sexual nature in Asuguhe.
*The need to close the Temple of Nanai and any other similar establishments.
*The need to introduce a strict dress code in society.
*The need to ban the dissolution of marriage.
*The need to introduce the so-called "maternal duty," i.e., the obligation of women to bear a certain number of children for the kingdom.

I recommend that Erika pay particular attention to the last two points.

I would love to be there. The homeland of everything beautiful and interesting in the world.

That's what I think about Japan.
