Dialogue between Amantaro of the Hyper-Dimensional Experience Library and Mugen

Mugen consulted Amantaro of the Hyper-Dimensional Experience Library (or Hyper-Dimensional Amantaro for short) via telepathy regarding the issue of respecting free will in the context of future predictions.

I wonder what kind of answer he will give...

Hyper-Dimensional Amantaro said the following.

"Mugen-san, that issue certainly exists. If people adamantly insist that they do not want to come to my new world and wish to remain in the unfree world, I cannot force them to come."

"However, if left as they are, the groups of unfree worlds will likely continue to deteriorate and become even more unfree."

"Therefore, Mugen-san, I would be grateful if you could somehow subtly inform such people about the new world I am creating. What do you think?"

Mugen responds with a troubled look.

"Hey, even if you say that... the privileged classes in the unfree worlds have nasty personalities."

"On top of that, they are the type of people who use various special privileges, special abilities, special military powers, and authority as they please."

"Why do I have to deal with people like that?"

"Well, I am not saying you have to, but since you can use avatars, Mugen-san, wouldn't it be fine if you just integrated and rescued the consciousnesses inside if something happens to your avatars in the unfree world?"

"No, no, no, you say it so easily, but the consciousnesses inside are complicated."
It's not like only my avatars are inside the bodies of the unfree world.

"There are original consciousnesses there too, so I have to take their circumstances into account as well."

"Unfree worlds are difficult because they are unfree. You've tried doing various things in unfree worlds before, so you understand that, right?"

"Yes. But I don't think there is anyone else suitable for the role..."

"That's not true, is it? Can't you just ask the Hyper-Dimensional Holy Body or the Hyper-Dimensional Experience Library?"

"No, I have already asked them."

"Then shouldn't that be enough to handle it?"

"But you see, I have already dispatched many of my own avatars to the unfree worlds."

"So?"

“So, could you please protect my avatars?”

“No, wait, aren’t they already being protected by the Hyper-Dimensional Holy Bodies?”

“That’s true, but I want you to protect them too, Mugen-san.”

“Why do you need me for that?”

“Well, my avatars are naive and don’t really know the common sense or the dangers of the restrictive world. Besides, you could freely integrate my avatars and teach them what they need to know through telepathy, and protect them that way, right?”

“Well, if you insist, I suppose I could do it, but I’d rather go to a world where I can have more fun...”

“Why not just increase your avatars and go to a world where you can have fun?”

“Instead of that, why don’t you just forcibly absorb everyone into your new world, even if you have to drag them in?”

“I can’t do that. The Hyper-Dimensional Holy Bodies have said that we shouldn’t do that.”

“Why not? You’d be reclaiming the entire restrictive world and allowing everyone to experience whatever they want freely, which means everyone would be able to enjoy themselves much more than they can in the current restrictive world, right?

I doubt there’s anyone who would say they don’t want that, is there?”

“But it seems there are quite a few people in the restrictive world who feel that way.”

Mugen says with a sigh.

“So? What do you want me to do?”

“Well, you see... could you act as the public relations representative for my new world?”

“Wait, didn’t you just ask me to protect your avatars a moment ago?”

“Yes, that too, but I think the main thing is for you to be the PR representative.”

“If you want PR, why don’t you just do it via telepathy?”

“No, that’s not enough. You see, there are many souls in the restrictive world who can’t use telepathy, aren’t there?”

“Well, I suppose that’s true...”

“So, could you please teach my avatars what they need to know?”

“What happens if I do that?”

“If you do, my avatars will be able to teach the people in the restricted world.”

“That sounds like a hassle... Why don't you just teach them yourself?”

“Well, you see, here in the Hyper-Dimensional Experience Library, access to the restricted world is limited. To prevent knowledge from being misused. Also, the Hyper-Dimensional Experience Library has told me to focus entirely on creating the new world.”

“So, even though they are my avatars, the sharing of knowledge, understanding, and imagery is restricted, and it’s currently impossible.”

“Ah, so that’s the situation. I see. Since I am the main body of the avatar clan, I can integrate my consciousness with Amataro and bypass those restrictions, right? In other words, you want me to act as a relay?”

“Exactly as you guessed. As expected of you, Mugen, you catch on quickly.”

“Sigh, well, if that’s the case, I’ll do it, but I don’t know if I can meet your expectations. I don’t know how things will turn out depending on how the other side reacts.”

“Yes. Regarding that point, there is no problem if you judge the situation flexibly as you see fit. Even if things don’t go well, I won’t complain.”

“Then, for starters, if I’m going to publicize this, I need you to tell me more about the specifications, or rather, the image of the new world that Amataro is creating.”

“Yes. Please, let me tell you.”

Thus, Amataro began to explain in more detail to Mugen about the new world he was creating.
