Chapter 33: The Awakened Girls

"Yahh

"Good. Ulysses touched the doll's long silky hair, the black hair gently spreading between his fingers, causing Shaki to chuckle.

This is the second movable doll he has ever made, and it is certainly not as perfect as the Rose Maiden. Because it's inherently incomplete, but after merging with Shahime, who doesn't have a physical body, it also has the ability to move.

Giving life and soul to a puppet is a topic that puppeteers need to study all their lives. However, as the Demon King, Ulysses has the power to destroy the ordinary laws of life, and before that, he has broken the taboo once.

The first doll he created was "Cindy" resurrected from Cindy's corpse. The kind of necromancer technique that uses the secret method of necromancy can actually be regarded as one of the branches of the puppeteer, but the material used is the corpse of a young girl.

And the secret technique of fusing Shaji and the puppet is also from Astarrot's Book of the Demon King.

"It's an amazing secret technique, it looks like you've gotten a lot stronger. Although it was known that Ulysses was not making a perfect puppet like them, the Mercury Sword still rarely recognized Ulysses' abilities.

The puppet Sha Ji, who gained vitality in this way, exudes an evil beauty all over her body, which looks unusually charming, but her eyes are as innocent as a child, and the two completely different qualities combine to form a girl full of charm.

The beauty that gets rid of the stiffness of the doll is exactly the artistic sense necessary to create the Rose Maiden. At this point, there is no doubt that the person who can possess this kind of technology must have inherited the legacy left by his father.

"Well, though, that's not enough, I have to get stronger. Ulysses was not satisfied with the level he had reached.

To complete the highest level of "resurrection" and to bring Yulia back from the world of death, his strength is not enough.

The so-called "miracle" is a collection of countless extremely unlikely events, but his current wish is to surpass the extravagant hope of "miracle".

No matter how many times they come together by chance, it is impossible to resurrect Yuria. What he needed was the strength to turn even the laws of this world around.

Therefore, he must move forward, step by step, to a place that no one can reach, to ascend to the highest summit, and become the "Demon King".

"Hmm!" Shaki happily stretched out her hands as if to show off her newfound body, and hugged Ulysses' neck tightly.

There are no traces of joints on her slender hands and feet, and anyone who looks at her now thinks that she is an ordinary human girl, and a girl with straight and smooth black hair.

"Give her a name, it's your right as the Creator. Looking at the innocent Sha Ji who had just learned to move her hands and feet, the Mercury Sword seemed to see her past self.

At that time, she was also clumsy in using her hands and feet, walking towards her father step by step. Of all the Rose Maidens, as the first doll, she was incomplete at first, and almost became a failure.

However, her father's favor and perseverance eventually paid off, and she was close to failure, and she finally gained the most unique ability, the ability to move freely even without any medium.

"Name?" Ulysses looked at Shahime, who was holding her coquettish, and she was constantly moving around in his arms, looking very happy.

"Shahime, what kind of name do you want?" Ulysses touched Shahime's small face, and then connected all of Shahime through the Book of the Demon King.

"????" came from the hearts of the simple sand hers with a series of question marks.

For them, who were just experiments, names were meaningless. Even if they get a body that can move, for them who are good at collective action, things like names don't seem to be very necessary.

Eventually, they gave Ulysses a unified answer.

"Shahee, is that good?" Ulysses looked at the puppet girl in front of him.

There is no need for a separate name, they voluntarily use the same name, representing their desire to be together all the time.

So, all that is needed is the name "Sha Ji", which is the name of their race, and the name of all of them.

"Ahh

Soon, the back of Ulysses' hand was covered with wet marks.

"Sha Ji, go back. Ulysses lightly clicked on the Book of the Demon King, and the puppet girl Shaki turned into mist and disappeared into the air.

In the thick Book of Demon Kings, there is a dark-haired puppet girl on the page representing Shaji's team.

In the future, more Shahimes will receive such bodies, which is the reward that Ulysses has given them, thank them for their help and care for them.

For him, they who stay in the Book of Demon Kings are not only his direct subordinates, but also his friends.

"Shahime? Nice name. The Mercury Sword, who didn't know Sha Ji's true face, had a little hazy eyes, as if he had returned to the past.

At that time, the sisters of the Rose Maiden were there, and all the stars in the sky were shining...... Wait!all?The Mercury Sword looked through the window in amazement at the sky of the Puppet City.

At this moment, all the stars representing all the Rose Maidens are shining, and not a single faint star is visible.

Could it be them?

............ "Burn, burn me!" On an overseas island, Hugo, who was working with Paran on the ancient puppet manufacturing method in the Seven Wings Branch, rolled around on the ground.

The four rings she wore on her hand were radiating different brilliance, and the four rings that were named true red, emerald green, gold wire, and chickberry were exuding a strong will to leave her hand.

Despite her desperate efforts to control them, the four rings eventually flew into the sky and disappeared into the sky.

"Woo woo, my rose girls!" Hugo, who has a special love for puppet girls, looked at the sky with tears in her eyes, and now there was only one ring left on her hand.
