Chapter 33 - Rock Doll….Scary.Scary

n

n

nI would like to refrain from waking up to a phenomena beyond my imagination.

nWhen I woke up, a wooden board was moving by itself.

nSomeone should praise me for not screaming.

nScary.

nLooking at it closely, it is not only one piece but many boards are moving on their own.

nThe pile of boards is also lower compared to yesterday.

nIf there’s a curse…shouldn’t there be ghosts too?

nEh, seriously?

nNo ghost, please!

nI want to sleep again but that’s already impossible.

nI tried to get up against my will.

n…..

n「….rock doll」

nIt was not a ghost.

nThat’s good.

nBut what is this mysterious scene before me?

nThe boards are not moving on their own. They are being carried by dolls made of rock.

nYeah, the same doll I made last night.

nSince I can freely manipulate rock, I tried making one in humanoid form.

nIts height is about 60cm.

nI was satisfied with how good I made the first one so I tried making another until I completed 10.

nI thought it was funny so I made it like a youkai with 1 eye.

nAnd that part emits pale light.

nI don’t really mind them moving but why do their eyes have to glow?

nIt’s surreal.

nNow, nine of them are lifting boards and arranging them for flooring.

nAh, they’ve done well. There’s no gap in between and they are fast.

nKoa and the others seem to have been awake all this time and were observing the rock dolls.

nWhen they noticed that I was awake, everyone’s eyes fell on me.

nI gently divert my gaze. I don’t know what’s happening!

nMeanwhile, the flooring of the room is silently being fitted by the rock dolls.

nEh, how can you move?

nI picked up the one that’s not moving.

nThis is certainly something I made yesterday.

nI was able to make one according to my imagination so I made another one.

nThat time, I remember an old picture book.

nIt is about a shoe store that a fairy secretly helps in making shoes in the middle of the night….

nI thought I wanted the fairy in the picture book when I recalled it like that.

nHowever, it looks like a fairy would have a hard time helping me with the flooring.

nI thought back then that a robot helper would be great too.

nI created the 9 others while thinking like that.

nAh, it would be great if the flooring would be completed while I was sleeping….

nAfter saying that, I went to bed….right.

nDid they start moving because of that?….seriously?

nThe reason why the first one is not moving is because I did not imagine it helping me when I was making it.

nOr rather, did I really imagine the dolls moving when I was making them?

n….well, I can’t think of any other reason.

n「…..work stop, gather」

nNo way, they really gather.

nNine of them are lined up side by side.

nThis is surreal but….charming too.

nThe non-moving doll in my hand.

nI imagined a robot and said, “move”.

nWhen I put it down on the floor, it stands up and lines up beside the other nine.

n…. It moved….it moved?

n….well, I can’t think of any other reason.

n「Thank you for your hard work.」

n…..

nHow many of them are fairies and how many of them are helper robots?
