What is this, even though I don't even know what XXXX is, but I'm improving my skills!?
You haven't even changed what XXXX is!
Even if you look at the status, as always, nothing appears in the Skills section.
This should have solved the problem of the labyrinth for intermediates, but it can no longer stop.
Oh, speaking of which, this sprout was the cause of the angst... the ordinary mind, the ordinary mind.
All right, I'm calm.
Yeah, do you want me to send a message to Hal and Caro?
"Don't worry, Hal, Caro, the disturbance that demons gush in the intermediate labyrinth has been resolved. I'm going back to earth exorcising demons."
All right, that'll be enough of the preaching.
And then - yes, let's pray to Master Libra.
I also want the Labyrinth Break Bonus, but I'm more worried about Master Teto than that. It's hard for Pioneer and Nite not to wake up like this.
That's what I said, and I prayed to the statue of the goddess, Lady Livra.
The next moment, I was in a white space.
Apparently, we have arrived among the goddesses.
The first thing that would surprise me when I came to this world would be the existence of a huge scale.
On both plates of the balance, which represents order and equilibrium, the golden sand - is it sand gold? - shines from nowhere, overflowing in the downpour, shaking the balance heavily.
It's a mysterious place, but why does it smell like a curry spice somewhere?
"I've been waiting, Mr. Ichinojo"
"It's been a long time - did you know I was coming?
"Let's keep the story moving. Mr. Ichinojo, hold my hand."
I took the hand of the libra-like that I was going to give you.
Shortly thereafter, the sand of the balance leaned heavily, and one door appeared in the space.
"Now let's go to Teto. Never let go of my hand"
That's what the libra told us, and we went in the door.
Inside the door was a black space. It's a strange place that I don't know up and down, and I don't even know where I was until just now.
I see, this is going to get lost and unable to go back if you let go of your hand.
Is that why you asked me to hold your hand?
"First, let's correct it. I'm holding hands because I'm not lost."
"Huh? Uh, did you read your mind?
"No, I can't read in your mind anymore. Did you do something to Minerva?
Exactly.
Does that mean you don't have to read my mind or anything? That's a little shocking.
"What do you mean for Master Livra not to get lost?
"I will now head to the room of the goddess Tet. But what is inherently the space of the goddess is only allowed to enter the authorized person. So is your myworld, isn't it?
"Yes, that's right. The goddess is free to come and go, though."
"We're free to come in and out because you're not rejecting us. You are."
I didn't say no?
"Yeah, I don't know if you're conscious or unconscious, but you're welcoming the goddess."
I welcome the goddess to come - I never thought of that.
Dear Tray Rules, Dear Minerva, I am in trouble because suddenly I leave when I visit. Well, if they ask me if I'm refusing, I won't say that much.
"I'll get back to it. As I said earlier, no other goddess can enter unless the goddess Tet gives her permission. But Teto hasn't refused to let you visit - it's more like waiting for you to come. So I can only go to Teto by using you."
Master Libra said, was that what you were waiting for me for?
If I was going to the beginner's labyrinth, would I have joined hands with Lady Koshomare instead of Lady Libra and headed to Lady Teto?
"Most importantly, that distorted the space and led us to walk in such a narrow world. If you let go of your hand here, your body will be able to go to the goddess Tet in an instant, but I will be left in this narrow world."
That's what they said, I sweated in my hand.
My hand is about to slip and I grip Libra-like's hand hard.
"You don't have to be so nervous. I'm formally saying if I let go of my hand, I keep my magical ties as well as my hands. It really doesn't happen what I just said when I let go of my hand"
I was told that I was a little less nervous.
I don't want a goddess killing title - no, because leaving it in the narrow world forever is more sinful than killing it.
And we kept walking for about three hours.
"Um, Master Libra - is Teto's space still far away?
"Yeah, is that about half of it"
Shit, the Hals must be worried.
For once, should I send you a message?
"Don't worry. You know how time flows differently between the goddess' space and the earth, don't you? Just doesn't mean time stops completely, but time is only flowing on the ground for a few minutes or so. You can't send a transmission properly because of the speed difference."
Difference in time speed - oh, I totally forgot.
So, even if I send Hull a message, it arrives in super-fast fast-forward condition? If I send such a decree, I'll make you worry the other way around.
I mean, it's only half.
Then there's going to be time to talk a little more into it.
"Um - what is the aim of the Demon King and the Brave?"
"Do you remember the incident at Daijima? That a ghost man has gathered his temper. And that the temper I gathered there was after I was sent somewhere."
"... Yep"
"All the temper gathered in Daijima had been sent to this Maraisgurli"
"... Huh!?"
"Precisely, it was sent between Maleigulli and the Grand Temple to a place divided by seventy-two to twenty-eight.
Fine. I usually feel like seven to three.
"An underground passage is laid between Maleigulli and the Grand Temple, and its underground passages are tied to escape routes in various places. Some of them are connected to other continents. It was built by a luxury family that once ruled the land and used by Demon King Familis Laritay as an escape route. The transfer team set up on that escape route was connected to Daejima."
So you're saying that the transfer team was used to send a grudge?
I guess that's where Joffre and Elise got away with the secret escape route, too.
"So the purpose of the Demon King was to create a mass of demons with care."
"No, it's a means, not an end"
"Ain't that what this is about?
"There's only one thing he wanted. The resurrection of Metias."
"Master Metias'?
"Oddly enough, that was what the brave wanted. So the brave men and the demon kings -- they were supposed to join hands with each other."
"Why... Master Metias should have been fighting to protect the world. Why is the Demon King trying to resurrect the world to ruin?"
"... the story has gone too far. This is not something you should know any more. People have people's, goddesses have the realm of goddesses. If you go in deep, you won't be able to turn back."
That's what Lady Libra said and said.
I really don't suppose you can ask any more.
It's something that got silent in that state, so I thought I had to tell you something else.
As a result, I said the most unreadable thing about the air.
"Dear Livra... were you originally human?
I said it and regretted it.
What are we gonna do when we hear you were human? You ask me what I was doing when I was human?
Master Minerva said that the Goddess was the result of an innocent woman's sacrifice.
Master Libra looks at me.
Shit, I need to undo it immediately - when I thought so, Master Libra sighed loudly.
".................. Ha, you asked Minerva. This is something that humans should never know."
"... I knew it, didn't I? Think of the faith of the Church or something."
"Yep. So don't tell anyone"
That's what pushed me.
"Was I human? Right. In conclusion, I don't remember. I hear it was, but I can't answer anything I can't be sure of. He just said it wasn't as terrible a life as you think. They took me away from my adoptive mother and adoptive father, who originally nearly died as an orphan, and said I had a peaceful time with those two. Sacrifice, he said, was what he wanted himself to do. You're right to do the right thing and die - that's what you thought."
"But it's..."
"Yeah, you thought about my adoptive mother and my adoptive father, but now you know as much as I do that it's not a favor or anything, it's an unlimited dishonesty. No, you know because you're judging things objectively, and you might still make the same mistake if you were a party. Because the goddess is not absolute."
The weakness you showed in front of me.
Perhaps it is the true appearance of Master Libra, who kept disciplining himself with order and equilibrium - what a thing I thought I knew.
"Mr. Ichinojo, I see it"
I kept walking without pinching a break, and I could see the light in the distance.
The light grows gradually.
"There it is. I don't know what it is, so be prepared."
I don't want you to threaten me because I don't know what it is.
"It's not a threat. Use base return if you think it's dangerous. We can't go back to earth, but the world you call My World is so close to the world of our goddesses that it should also be possible to transfer"
"... ok"
I nodded and went into the door of light.
