"Well... that doesn't mean it's so messy.Because I'm only gonna say one thing to you, okay? Ready? "

"Okay, please."

"... let me tell you something. Well, that was a long time ago, when I was younger than I am now.I mean, I was pretty screwed up, and, uh, I didn't think about divine and national partitions, so I talked like a friend, and the soldiers here didn't make me do anything as tough as I am now.Without the majesty or power of God... now I think I've done nothing but truly despicable things. "

(I think she's still babbling...)

"Surprisingly, God is lonely.Everyone cared about their identity no matter how gently they spoke up, and there was no such thing as a completely open heart... I knew right away that they were scared or wearing cats, but I couldn't stand the loneliness of being alone... because I probably wanted to be sweet to God. "

When the door of the room opens, the maid Marlon pushes the wagon in.A teapot and two cups are placed on top of the wagon to pour tea from the teapot into the cup.

And he put the cup in front of Ketterness and Gacto.

Got it.

"Thank you."

A cup of tea to calm each other down.

"Puhah... delicious. Marlon, you stay here too."

"Yes!? But... what are you talking about...?"

"Ah, I want you to stay.Besides... I need you for tea, right? "

"... yes!"

Although Marlon looked surprised, he looked a little happy with Keterness's words.

"Phew... but... there's someone who drinks from time to time.When I met him, I preached, sometimes I laughed, sometimes I got sick, but I was relieved to talk, like a human mother.But he was more passionate than ahh.Working for the people, being kind to the same God, and never losing sight of my goals, it was exactly like "God," loved by everyone. "

And Keterness drank a sip of tea.

So, what happened to that god?

"Well, wait... that's what I was going to say.You heard about the war from Marlon, right?There was an unprecedented Great War in this world… 'The Gods' Conflict War (Ragnarok) '.It was the first time this world was at stake. The Great War of the Seven other gods, including one evil god.It was a dead fight..... "

"Was the enemy so strong?"

"Ah... it's a different digit from the evil gods.Ah, I couldn't even hold it down because of lack of strength.But... there was only one man who fought against that evil god.That's what I just said about the god everyone loved... he fought desperately... he couldn't do anything after all... and finally that god disappeared... in front of us... with the evil gods. "

Keterness seemed to remember that time as he chewed his lips.There is a little red blood coming from the chewed lips.Her remorse must have been considerable.

"At that time... this happened because I was so desperate about my abilities because of the strength of being a god... so Ah Shi changed his mind.Ahshi doesn't have to be liked by the people anymore, let's aim for a stronger country that is invincible no matter where it is attacked from... To do so, let's become a 'God of Destruction' that everyone fears.That's why, uh, both the people and the soldiers have been given strict discipline and training to regain the dignity of God... and at the same time feared.But... except for the maroons... "

"What?... Ketelness, what did you mean by that?"

"... that means it's special."

Keterness drinks cupped tea all at once

In a hurry, Marlon pours extra tea into the empty cup.Keterness, who was watching Marlon like that, stroked Marlon's head.The petting Keterness smiled gently, and the petting Marlon continued to be petted even as it was illuminated.

Overall, I was listening, and the tone of Ketterness was more calm and somehow sad than ever.

At first I thought it was a tyrant and a difficult character, but now I realized by hearing directly from God who carried human sadness.As Marlon said, her deep psychology is strong against others.That's why I came here with a past incident.That's why the maids around you exude their remaining loneliness towards humans.

"Master Keterness... I'm so embarrassed...!"

Isn't that nice ~?

"Ah... my hair is getting rough ~!"

I couldn't help but be alert to this scenery, even though it was slaughtered just now.

"This is the past I can tell you about.Any questions? "

"... there are only two. One is a question in the story and the other is another."

"Hmm... tell me."

"What is the name of the devil and the name of your loved one?"

"... I knew you'd hear that."

Keterness stood up and walked towards me, bringing her red mouth closer to her ear and whispering with whisper voice.

"Your leader must know that."

Say just one word. Gacto's mouth is blocked with his fingers even if he uses further questions.Keterness looks at Gacto and laughs with his nose back to the front of Gacto.

"So what's the next question?"

I have a question about what I learned about Celt, but it seems that there is no word to return even if I mention it here.Let's ask Celt honestly about this.Celt speaks with the greatest god in the group.You must know something.I'm just asking questions right now.

"... last but not least, it's about Amura.Did you really intend to kill him? "

……

Keterness quietly closes her eyes to this question.There will be another visit for a while.

And Keterness opens her mouth with a serious expression.

"Ahshi doesn't want to kill the people."

"... then why did you paste it!?"

Gact stood up momentum and raised his voice.The cup in front of me collapsed and the tea spilled.

I was going to kill him and hide his existence.

"You mean you won't let Amura out... that's what I'm saying..."

No?

"... I don't want to...!"

I can't believe that such a healthy little girl couldn't get out without the sun... chest shit.

Nothing wrong with him.He whispered that even though it was just a little special blood, Gact's justice could not be forgiven for letting adults swing around and have a painful experience.

"... I see... do you want to protect that kid?"

If I can protect you, I want to protect you.

"... you want power?"

Huh?

"I know you have power, too.But you said you were growing slowly.Ahshi has one suggestion for you.Well, to put it simply, I'd like to see your power toward the blade. "

"... what are you trying to say?"

Keterness laughs at Nihill.

"I will give you a test."

"Trial?"

"If we can overcome this challenge, I will give you a hand to accelerate your power.However, it is not a lukewarm trial.If you're ready to risk your life, I'll give you the right to challenge.What do you think? "

Trial... I can't think of what I'm going to do.My Special Spec [Mutant] grows slowly because of his powerful abilities.If the force can accelerate here, I want to gain it.But... I didn't think I was prepared to risk my life.

Readiness to risk your life... your body trembles in fear of what it means.However, an amulet's face appears in Gact's brain.It was easier for Gacto to think that the little girl's smile would disappear for the rest of her life, and now it was lighter to risk her life.

Do it... trust me...

"Okay, I'll do it."

"... hah! Yikes! It's settled, then follow me."

Ketterness stood up and urged Gact to go out of the room and into the hallway.

Gacto follows Keterness in silence.

Marlon looked worried from behind.

Gacto-sama!!

Huh?

"Oh... be careful...!"

Marlon thanked deeply.

"... thank you."

Gact thanked him and took him to Keterness, where he began walking again along the long corridors of the castle.
