Chapter 8: I’m stuck

I am standing in front of the only door inside the room. It won’t open no matter how hard I try. If pushing it is not good, how about pulling it? It won’t open either. Is it a type that slides like a fusuma1? Nope.

This is bad! I’m stuck!

Is there another way to open the door like a button, a level, strings? I felt that there is a way, I looked for signs nearby.

There are none.

Waaaaaaa! I will not accept failure in such a place!

[Log: Due to the effects of 【The Enlightened One】, excitement was forcibly extinguished.]

Calm down, me. It’s still too early to give up. If it’s impossible to open neatly, then I can kick it open if there’s an emergency. Incidentally, there are no windows inside the room so the door is the only exit to be kicked.

With no other choice, I hit it.

Bang!

With a loud noise, the door still remains. But I don’t care; I don’t want to be stuck here!

[Log: Golem dealt 28 damage to Sealed Door.]

Hmm? Only 28 damage?

It is a small amount, but damage is still damage.

If I continuously give it damage, sooner or later it will gradually break down. If that’s the case, I’ll just keep striking it.

Bang!

[Log: Golem dealt 28 damage to Sealed Door.]

Bang!

Bang!

10 minutes later.

Bang!

[Log: Golem dealt 28 damage to Sealed Door.]

Bang!

[Log: Golem dealt 28 damage to Sealed Door.]

Even though I’ve been hitting it since forever, the door didn’t even budge. Seriously? This door is very sturdy. Fortunately, my strength did not decrease at all.

Forward! To the doors!

Bang!

[Log: Golem dealt 28 damage to Sealed Door.]

Bang!

[Log: Golem dealt 28 damage to Sealed Door.]

When I stopped hitting the door, it released a strange pale light. Is it a sign that it would break? Let’s continue punching with the same rate.

Bang!

[Log: Golem dealt 28 damage to Sealed Door.]

When the light reaches its peak, the voice resounded.

[Log: A cycle of day and night was completed. The Sealed Door was completely restored.]

Eh!?

  1. I laughed a lot! Thank you very much for all your hard work!

    I am puzzled though about why he’s allowed to be depressed but not excited. …

    1. Or I mistranslated it… anyways I reviewed it multiple times but I cant pin down the problem. The order of kanjis were the same with the other emotion logs (depression was the only thing changed).

      Though, I still think that it was my inaptitude to clarify a few things. Mainly because I am well-versed in Japanese coz I started this on a whim.

      Not to let your hopes up but the quality’s bad and I am not a native english speaker so my english is a bit askewed in some areas.

  2. He get too excited quickly and don’t notice the strange part. He’s in a lab in making golems. Of course there be precaution if the Golem they created and repaired get loosely uncontrolled or developed self-awareness that may turn against its creators.
