Chapter 52 (1/2)

G.o.d-sama who doesn’t move an inch while crouching down.

Fuu…… how troubling.

Even though I keep everyone waiting. But, I can’t leave in this situation.

What should I do? Umm, would nudging be disrespectful?

「Err…… are you all right?」

I tried calling out to him first. Yeah, there’s no answer.

I tried clapping on his shoulder……

『I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry…… I made a slight blunder……』

Blunder? A G.o.d made a blunder?

Umm…… is it all right to get angry?

Even though I got unwillingly dragged into this world, a blunder on top of that……

Haa…… haa…… deep breaths…… breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out……

I must calm down…… fuuuuu…… suuuu……

We can’t move forward if I don’t hear more details.

「What was the blunder?」

I’m calm. Gulp. I swallow the saliva.

「Just what did you do wrong? Can you tell me more in detail?」

G.o.d-sama who gradually settled down took a pot and two cups from somewhere and started making tea……

The quietly brewed tea has a good nostalgic fragrance.

This is…… my favorite roasted green tea, isn’t it? The fragrant fragrance makes me calm. Un…… the stems were roasted, weren’t they?

『I’m sorry for losing composure. I didn’t know how much time has pa.s.sed. There were people who could use【Holy Darkness】and【s.p.a.ce-time】before, but the races who inherited those are now gone. It appears the blood has been considerably thinned out』

「It was normally used in the past?」

『No, only those with the blood of saints and shrine maidens and the bestowed people had them』

「Bestowed people?」

『People like you who were called here from different worlds. They seem to be called heroes recently』

「Then, the people who came with me have them?」

『No…… Saints or shrine maidens wouldn’t appear from such incomplete circle』

「That was incomplete?」

『Normally, it wasn’t possible to summon bestowed people, but people of this world were able to recreate the process to a certain extent, and that is called the circle. It might have been possibly already used many times without my knowledge. From now on, all magic circles of the country called Kohl will be sealed. It seems they made a lot of mess without praying』

「Is there really n.o.body from the races which could use【Holy Darkness】and【s.p.a.ce-time】left?

『It seems that there’s no one with【Holy】,【Darkness】,【Time】and【s.p.a.ce】. Eh, ah. There are people on your side with【Darkness】and the lower rank attribute of【Holy】the【Light】, aren’t there?』

「They said it’s atavism. But, I heard it’s difficult to control the magical power」

『That’s so, isn’t it? With the power so great, may be difficult to control finely』

「I can’t use it even though I have something like that」

『The basics of magic, is it? It’s all about heartfelt imagination and creativity』

「Imagination? Just thinking of it is enough?」

『Would you like to try?』

「M, may I ask you for a touch?」

『Please, extend both of your hands』

「I extend my hands just as told to. Un, this much is fine」

『Let’s establish a light between your hands』

「How?」

『Imagine and create. Turn on the light. Think of little lights』

Little lights…… candle light…… slowly swaying…… shaking light……

『With your own thoughts as power, convert the small power that’s in the area into the light』

Little swaying light…… light between my hands…… slight, bright light……

Eh? Something is smoothly…… howaa……

A tiny light……

Eh? Light? It’s lit?

Un, it’s lit…… a little swaying light is lit……

What a lovely light……

「G.o.d-sama? I did it. A little light has been lit」

『See? You have plenty of magical power, so you were able to do it immediately, weren’t you?』
