The Indescribable Diary - Chapter 52
Chapter 52: Revelations of Glaaki
“Huh, isn’t this peculiar item store used to trick players into paying for in-app purchases?”
After a lightning strike, a shoddily wrapped book appeared in Yu Yi’s hands.
[That’s for other AIs. Every Outer God or Olden Days is played by an independent AI. We have the same authority, so us KPs can’t tell them what to do. Your Yuming is a good example. I have no idea what Naya wants to do… but it probably thinks that you have a knack for causing havoc.]
Although the book in Yu Yi’s hands wasn’t very attractive, the title captured Yu Yi’s attention. Although it wasn’t the Book of Deathly Souls, it still recorded some methods of summoning Outer Gods…
“Revelations of Glaaki”
“Since I know English and have the BUFF from KP’s Mercy, does that mean I can read this book?”
[Yes you can. However, you’ll encounter checks at key moments. You know that already.]
Of course Yu Yi knew that. Reading books like these was basically asking for inspiration checks and SC.
“What… This is the completed version?! Not just part of it?!” Before opening the book, Yu Yi inspected the volume and found that the book was especially heavy. It was completely different from the thin volume of “King Huang Yi” that he found at Butaya.
Wow, this was really Naya! She gave him the entire version! A total of 12 volumes! And damn, it was the original and not some redacted, published version! This was the original Revelation!
[So would you like to read this? You know the results of reading this book, although I’m not too sure why Naya would give this to you as a reward. Neither of you is decent anyway. Since you’re reading the original version, you need to go through an English check. Due to the KP’s BUFF, I would consider the check successful. Afterward, you would need to go through an SC, which would increase your Call of Cthulhu value. Additionally, to fully decipher this book, you will need a reading time of 1d8/2d8+17 (44%) weeks. That’s 88 hours on average.]
[At the same time, if you wish to completely grasp and understand the book, you would need to go through a mysticism check. I remember that your mysticism is at the initial level? Furthermore, even if your mysticism check passes, you would still need to go through a willpower check. This is because the reader definitely does not wish that the book ends there, so he would continue writing it with his Call of Cthulhu knowledge. Hence, the book would increase in length. So, if you can’t pass your willpower check, you would have to keep reading this book.]
[However, since you are the only Oracle of Yuming, you would not be able to summon the Y’golonac even after finishing all 12 volumes. After all, a face-to-face NTR is way too high-level for me, so I won’t be able to take it. If it comes out, Yuming would probably find trouble with it.]
What the f**k was face-to-face NTR! Do you mean that Yuming was watching my performance from somewhere?
“I don’t have to go through a mysticism check if it’s just plain reading, right?”
[Yes. In that case, however, you would be unable to receive all the spells and boost effects.]
“What if I only read through the 6th volume, the 7th volume, the 8th volume, and the 10th volume?”
After thinking for a moment, Yu Yi made his decision.
[You’re trolling… If you only read these, you still have to go through the mysticism check. However, I can give you a free spell.]
“Then let’s do that. I don’t need that many. I’ll return to my hotel now.”
Without further hesitation, Yu Yi was prepared to give up the first few days to interpret the book. There were 30 days of game time. Yu Yi was sure that at least the first 15 days were safe. After all, wasn’t the climax always reserved for the end?
He quickly returned to the hotel and said some reminders to the staff. Then, he shut himself in his room, turned on the light, and opened the “Revelation of Glaaki”.
“KP, I want to use my skill, “Butaya’s Endgame”, to exempt myself from the mysticism check.”
[OK, but… you need to spend 74 hours to completely interpret the selected volumes. Are you sure you want to continue?]
74 hours? That was alright, it was just three days. Although he didn’t know what the plot was like, he had at least three days to waste.
“I’m sure.”
[Now, your interpretation begins. As a reminder, you can only learn one spell, which would be selected randomly from the volumes. So, don’t dream of learning all of them in one go.]
Time ticked by. Yu Yi blinked his eyes. It was as though a long time had passed, but it also felt like an instant. He felt immense soreness in his body. He must have sat in the same position for the past three days.
[You have read an indescribable book. The book filled you with disgust and surprise, as though it was able to absorb your soul into an alternate space… in all, inspiration check… rd=47, passed. Now for the 1d20 SC check!]
[. r1d20 = 4… you have lost 4 points of sanity value and…]
[You have learned all spells and understood the true meaning of summoning.]
[Summon/Expel Asatos]
[Free Spell: Summon Yuming (Unnamed Outer God)]
[Your Call of Cthulhu skill increased by 5 points, while you have lost 5 points from your sanity value maximum limit.]
Now, Yu Yi’s sanity value only had a maximum limit of 84 points. Meanwhile, his Call of Cthulhu value increased to 15 points. Overall, he had deducted 4 points of sanity value from Yu Yi. Yu Yi’s reward from the previous instance mission was withheld from him, so he still had a sanity value of 61 points. Now, he only had 57 points of sanity value left. Hm, this was still in the safe zone!
“I really am here to cause chaos… I got the summoning and expelling spells for Asatos out of luck.”
He would definitely tear his card this round… There was no way the KP would let him live. However, Yuming was really that Outer God. Yu Yi had received Yuming’s summoning spell from reading the book.
Yuming’s summoning spell was a short paragraph. Without any preparation, Yu Yi could use the Tai Sword sword to summon Yuming directly. Although it was just an incarnation, she was still an Outer God!
Each of the volumes that Yu Yi chose recorded a spell. They were Summon/Expel Ghroth, Summon/Expel Guardian of the Lunar Mirror, Summon/Expel Asatos, and Summon/Expel Daoloth.
That’s right, all these were spells to summon/expel the big shots. If I remember correctly, the so-called Guardian of the Lunar Mirror was pretty much Toriel. In a single reading, Yu Yi lucked out and got the spell to Summon/Expel Asatos. Simply put, Yu Yi had received a nuclear bomb. Now, he knew why Naya had thrown him the Revelation. She wanted to cause chaos. Furthermore, the Summon/Expel spell for Asatos was the simplest… As long as it was nighttime, a single person could do it if there was a large clearing. And then, there was a 70% chance of the Earth going BOOM!
“Whew, three days had passed in a flash. Time to get moving. KP, can I use the Timehound to return to 3 days ago?”
Looking at the Timehound on his hand, Yu Yi shook the dizziness off and prepared for action.
[You can, but do not forget that the Timehound only works continuously for 10 minutes. If there is no magic after 10 minutes, you will be sent back.]
That’s right… multi-timeline operations were indeed an unrealistic dream. Never mind, I’ll just continue with the process.
Firstly, it’s time to check for a large clearing.
