Created Pieces*

(POV switch – Ulysses Hazaknut Stone)
“Ugh……! That useless fool!” (Eibar)
With a crack, King Eibar smashed the broken staff onto the floor in indignation.
No, no, this is all a result of his own incompetence, so getting angry is not good. It seems he tried various schemes to create a rift between Haru-kun and Owen-kun using that woman, Marion, but everything has backfired,
And what was the point of leading the monstrous bird, Flezverg, to the duel between the two? Could it be that King Eibar was considering injuring Haru-kun to force him out of the story? If that happened, just as the protagonist switched from Wilfred to Owen-kun, he could change the sacrificial pawn to someone else.
“But what are you planning to do? The casino in the royal capital has become Haru-kun’s, and due to this incident, the bond with Owen-kun has deepened, making it impossible for them to fight as per the story.” (Ulysses)
“I get it!” (Eibar)
“No, you don’t. I don’t know how long you plan to keep making these failures, but I’m honestly baffled. I never imagined you would be this incompetent.” (Ulysses)
To be honest, I would prefer him to remain incompetent. That way, I could get my revenge on that guy. But…… ah, in the end, it’s probably going to end up just as that guy’s “script” dictates. Maybe that’s why I was thinking about this. That guy is interfering again. “Hurry and restore the story!”.
From his tone, he seems quite irritated. It’s hard to believe he’s the one who created us, the Nors people. I wonder what Haru-kun would say if he knew about that guy…… oh, I don’t even need to ask. I’m sure he would call him “incompetent”. Ah ha♪ If Haru-kun, the “incompetent bratty prince”, said that, that guy would surely go into a rage.
Just as I was thinking that, here comes another lecture. And, hmm, so that’s how it is. Well, apart from me, there’s only one true pure Nors person left.
“In any case, with such a shoddy method, I won’t be satisfied. If you’ve given up on becoming a god, then it doesn’t matter to me.” (Ulysses)
“W-wait! I understand! This time, I’ll do it right!” (Eibar)
“I’m tired of hearing that.” (Ulysses)
I shot a cold glance at the flustered King Eibar.
But for this man, who desires immortality and power more than anyone else, the existence of a god must be incredibly alluring. That’s why he’s so desperate to swallow my words.
“Don’t worry! There are still plenty of opportunities to proceed according to the story!” (Eibar)
King Eibar raised the thick book he had been clutching tightly. That book contained everything about the story given to the Nors people by that guy.
“If I read this, it means there are still plenty of opportunities! Besides, there are other ways……!” (Eibar)
“Oh, I see.” (Ulysses)
I replied disinterestedly and turned on my heel.
“W-where are you going?!” (Eibar)
“I’m going home since there’s no point in continuing this conversation.” (Ulysses)
Ignoring King Eibar, who had stood up from the throne, I teleported away.
—
“Welcome back, young master.” (Kaspar)
“I’m home.” (Ulysses)
Upon teleporting from the royal palace to the mansion in Salson, Kaspar greeted me with a bow as if he had been waiting for me.
“So, how was it this time?” (Kaspar)
“Ah, well, it was just proving that Eibar-kun is incompetent.” (Ulysses)
“I see. As expected of that vile family, it seems they are ultimately futile.” (Kaspar)
“But still, there’s no choice but to leave it to that man.” (Ulysses)
That’s right… King Eibar is also a part of this story. So, it’s impossible to remove him from his role.
“Moreover, it’s just not possible to substitute a king of a nation with someone else.” (Ulysses)
“……That’s true. However, if this story fails……” (Kaspar)
“Ah ha♪ He would be erased.” (Ulysses)
After all, we Nors people are merely pieces created by that guy. Thus, whether we live or die is entirely at that guy’s whim.
“You don’t have to worry. I’ll make sure to handle it well.” (Ulysses)
That’s right. I’m different from my father. He needlessly destroyed the Nors Empire, regretting and blaming himself for three hundred years, only to pass everything onto me in the end, that “incompetent”.
“……Really, this world is full of ‘incompetents’.” (Ulysses)
“Young master?” (Kaspar)
“Ah ha♪ It’s nothing.” (Ulysses)
I evaded the question with a wry smile at Kaspar, who peered at me curiously.
“By the way, it’s a message from that guy.” (Ulysses)
Instructions from that guy, who interrupted during my conversation with King Eibar. He told me to have Kaspar support King Eibar and create a conflict structure between Haru-kun and Owen-kun by any means necessary.
“Finally, it’s my turn.” (Kaspar)
“Ah ha♪ You seem happy.” (Ulysses)
“Of course. Not only can I assist you, but this will also fulfill the Nors people’s long-cherished wish.” (Kaspar)
Saying that, Kaspar showed a confident smile.
But unfortunately for him, his wish will not be granted. He doesn’t care even a bit about us, mere pieces.
“……Be careful.” (Ulysses)
“Rest assured. You are aware of my abilities, young master.” (Kaspar)
“Ah ha♪ Well, yes.” (Ulysses)
Even so, Haru-kun and the others…… no, he can’t even compare to that Xandra-san. The only one with the Dragon’s Favor granted in this world by our comrade, Fafnir.
“Well then, I shall be off at once.” (Kaspar)
Kaspar placed a hand on his chest and bowed respectfully before vanishing in an instant.
