Can I Become an Adventurer Without Gift?

The Googa boat was a size one that had enlarged the boat for fishermen around the corner, and even when the three of them were on board, they were able to afford it.

"Exactly. Unlike a big ship, it takes time, but just relax. I'm going to try to get there as soon as I can."

"Oh, please"

Asked Googa to steer, Hal was paying attention to his surroundings.

Lunaria is also constantly allowing barriers due to wind magic to unfold, thinking about when suddenly demons strike her.

But the demon was able to reach the island in good order without showing up.

"- Ugh, we're finally here. So, what are we gonna do?

It was a couga I offered myself, but still seemed nervous and exhaled heavily, landing the ship on the island.

But it wasn't as calamitous as it used to be, and the island was just quiet.

"In the meantime, me and Lunaria are going to do an island survey. Googa will be waiting for you on the boat. I don't mind if you run away in case a demon or something shows up. I'm going to do something about getting home."

"... come on, you want me to leave you two and run away?

It was a googa to joke and say to Hal's words, but Hal's eyes were serious.

"... ok. But if you can, come back before it does. If I ran away with two of the city's benefactors, I wouldn't sleep well either."

Hal and Lunaria smiled and nodded at Googa joking and saying this again after one loud breath into Hal's serious appearance.

"All right, Lunaria, let's go. It's hard for both of us to get rid of it, so let's go around the center first."

"Yes!"

The center of the island is where I fought the Staats at my last request, and I remember there was a magic formation around it.

If there's anything around it, isn't there? That was Hal's expectation.

"Be careful!

With an inspiring googa voice on their backs, the two headed to the center of the island.

The island is a quiet thing, and instead of demons and demons, I don't even feel signs of life.

Then detect the anomaly where the two arrived in the middle of the island they had defined as their destination.

"Is something wrong?

"Weird, no sound...?

He felt uncomfortable stepping into a central, certain area, as if stepping into an isolated space.

The ambient air changes at once, and the unpleasant feeling of not being able to feel anything strikes them both.

"Hmm, sounds pretty good to me."

The two rush to gaze in the direction in which their voices spoke. Until earlier, at least until a few seconds ago, there was no sign of anyone around.

"Ho, ho, I'm sorry to surprise you. I am not the Lord of voices."

One old man stood, laughing peacefully, in a completely central part of the island.

The tall is smaller than the lunaria, has no head hair and accumulates a long long white beard.

It was wrapped around a relaxed robe of such an atmosphere as anything, and had the appearance of being called a immortal.

"You defeated the demons in the lake, didn't you? Let me thank you. Thank you."

That said the old man finally bows his head.

"Ha, ha. No, I did defeat the Demons..."

"Um, how does Grandpa know we defeated the Demons...? And what do you mean, thank you?

Sure, we did everything we could to improve the state of the city, but the two of us are surprised to even be thanked by an old man in a place like this.

Besides, it made the two of us extra doubt that it wasn't just a taunt to feel from the old man in front of us.

"Hmm, well. I was wondering if we could talk somewhere calm. Do you mind if we move?

The choice lies only in Hal and Lunaria. That's why the old man was asking for permission from both of us.

"Also, if you can come back"

"Right."

The old man, who received the two words as affirmations, raises his cane high, which he took out of nowhere.

Then a dazzling ball of light emerges from the tip of the wand to envelop the hals.

"Wow, what the hell"

"Aah!"

"Ho ho ho, hurry up. It's for travel."

And when he wondered if the three of them had been wrapped in a large ball of light that gradually swelled, the next moment the ball of light disappeared from the spot for both Hal and the others.

The light gradually subsides after a while, and Hal and Lunaria open their eyes where it disappears completely.

"Ko, where are we?

"Wow, something's amazing!

When I opened my eyes, it was a different world than the island I had been on earlier.

Looking up over the head, there is water there, and a number of different fish swim freely.

The water surface was brilliant with a clear blue reflecting sparkling sunlight.

"This is not the bottom of the lake where we went earlier. Of course, I can't see it from the outside. Come on, follow me."

Hal and Lunaria decide to look at each other once and then follow the old man.

After a short walk, we arrive at a building about the size of a slightly larger house.

Not that it's huge, but some old man walks into a building with a unique and majestic atmosphere.

"Oh, excuse me."

"Excuse me."

They greeted each other and entered the building, but the old man's legs had not stopped yet, and he was to be guided straight into the deepest room.

"Ugh, they finally came back. Please, both of you sit down."

The room has a large circular table with chairs arranged around it. Hal and the others take their seats in the chair as they are urged.

"Well, let's start by introducing ourselves"

In response to that word, Hal was the first to introduce himself.

"My name is Hal. An adventurer. As you know, I took part in the request during this time to defeat the Demons"

"I am Lunaria. Like Hal, I was in the middle of a battle."

The old man nodded nicely at the two answers.

"Uh-huh, I showed you around. Now it's not my turn - but I don't have a particular name. Nothing in particular, but I'm doing the Lord of this lake. Some call it God, etc., but it's not such a big deal."

That's what the little, bodily shaking, laughing old man tells me, and Hal and Lunaria look at him again.

I wasn't as goddess, but I did feel some sacred atmosphere from the old man.

They understood that the first discomfort they felt was here.

"I see, God. I know."

"Right, there's an atmosphere somewhere close to those two!

Two people nodding face to face. It was a conclusion that could be drawn because they were actually in the goddess.
