Chapter 56 Its Going to be Another Rowdy Day (1/2)
Two days passed since we decided that we’re going to participate in the Sacred Tree Festival, and it is now the 18th day of the month of Fire.
Lunamaria will look into the exact date of the Sacred Tree Festival and she said that she would prepare the things that need to be done like preparing a flying dragon for us to ride on, so all we have to do now is wait.
As a side note, thanks to the book that Kuro wrote before, Kusunoki-san and Yuzuki-san are now able to use their magic power successfully.
I’m told that they’re going to start practicing the actual activation of magic today but…… since they’re like me who came from another world, I wonder if they would also be able to use an unusual kind of magic?
Walking down the corridor while thinking about this until I reach the dining room, I woke up early today and thought there would be no one in the dining room, but when I entered, I saw the figure of someone inside the dining room, I reflexively bowed my head.
[Good morning.]
[Umu, you’re quite early. That’s a good attitude to keep, Miyama. Humans only have a finite amount of time, so try not to waste it.]
[………………]
I shut the door in silence.
That’s strange…… I somehow have a feeling that there’s someone here that shouldn’t have been here. Did I open up the wrong door? That must be it…… Alright, let’s try again with more gusto!

[……What the heck are you doing?]
[That’s supposed to be my line instead…… Why are you here, “Chronois-san”……]
Yes, in front of the table in the dining room, there sits a Supreme God who was supposed to rarely visit the Human Realm except at the Festival of Heroes…… the Goddess of Time, Chronois, and she was drinking tea there like it was normal.
On a side note, regarding the way I call her, it’s just that I’ve been calling the God of Creation, Shiro-san, by her name in our previous conversation, and so, she strongly said that she won’t allow me to call her with a “-sama” attached to her name, so I ended up calling her by her name, Chronois-san.
[Me? I am here at Lilia’s request. I told her before to call me if trouble occurred…… Well, I didn’t expect it to happen this quickly nor did I think it was because of the worst-case possible……]
[No way, did something happen!?]
[…………….]
[Eh? Ummm…… Chronois-san?]
Hearing Chronois-san speaking like an emergency happened, I hurriedly asked since I thought it would be something that would require the presence of Chronois-san, a Supreme God but…… Chronois-san made an expression like she was really dumbfounded, and as her red and blue heterochromatic eyes turned towards me, she let out a sigh.
[Well, I guess I can understand the troubles that Lilia is going through with this guy. I came here because of that situation that you went into, you….. I heard that you became acquainted with the Death King?]

[Eh? Ah, yes. Isis and I became friends two days ago.]
[That power of yours that blesses you with connections may as well be a curse huh. What has happened that you have found the Death King in such a short period of time……]
[N- No, it’s really just a coincidence that I met Isis-san……]
[I know that. Still, it’s quite unusual for someone to get to know two of the Six Kings in less than twenty days…… especially the Death King… It’s not that the Underworld King dragged you and introduced you to her, right?]
[……Yeah, well.]
That’s a sound argument I can’t refute at all.
Indeed, carefully thinking about it, the people I’ve known since I’ve come to this world are truly some of the most powerful people in this world, and some of them hold the highest position in status…… You could describe it as fortunate in some cases, but you could also describe it as unfortunate. I could understand the feeling of why someone would describe it as a curse.
However, let me say one more thing—– aren’t you also included among that group of outrageous people I’ve met?
[Moreover, to have been acquainted with the Death King of all people you could meet…… If it was someone like the World King, she would have been someone easy to talk to……]
[Is Isis-san really that feared by everyone?]

[That one is pure, in both good and bad ways. That’s also why she’s so much worse than the other members of the Six Kings. There are many occasions when she doesn’t make sense.]
[…………………..]
Hearing Chronois-san’s words makes me feel a little complicated.
I know that I haven’t exchanged that many words with Isis-san yet, but I think I know that she’s not a bad person.
Isis-san seemed really happy when she was talking to me…… That would mean that she was probably lonely all the time, and that’s how I feel from the emotions I could read with my Sympathy Magic.
Feared as a monster by both the Demon Realm and the Human Realm because of the magic power of death she was clad in, and being constantly exposed to the gazes of fear, I can’t even imagine what it felt like being in her situation.
That’s why I couldn’t agree with Chronois-san’s comment about Isis being bad, so I just replied with silence.
Thereupon, Chronois-san nodded once with a somewhat impressed look on her face, and right at that moment, something that looked like a blue bird appeared before me.
[……Eh?]
[……A hummingbird…… Good grief, speak of the devil and she appears huh.]
