”She's called the lady of disambiguation, so maybe from sadness perhaps?” I answered nonchalantly.

”Yes. And from that point in time alone, having the great depression envelop the whole world made her seem to be equal to that of the heavenly magistrates or perhaps to primordial deities as she had an infinite source of power draw from her influence over the populations' sorrows, when in fact she was just a low-tier spirit moments ago. She was then interrogated by the heavenly guards, and our magistrates had no other choice but to give her a title of a ”goddess” as she already surpassed the limits and so that, everyone in the realm can keep an eye of her. But, she was rarely showing. She is even irresponsible and would skip discussions of importance. She is so lenient and was so unfit of the title of a goddess. And now here she is! Finally showing herself as a major delegate of a very important game. The warfare between fates.”

Oh, so that's how it was. I also found it a little unconvincing as to how someone like her is a natural-born goddess. But she must have lived a life of an outcast like me. Or even worse...

For the second time, I looked at her, but still, she wore the confident stature that seemed undaunted of having her foreground told.

But...

There is no faking it Lacrimosa. I have the natural talent of telling how someone feels deep inside. You may be an unreadable goddess at some times, but I know...you are dully bothered.

”Then?”

”Huh? What do you mean by ”then”? Young man? The one whom you agreed to form the contract is but an outcast and the puppet of the devil”

”I must be honest here. Herrschers? What is that supposed to be? Game? Setting it simple, I have no idea as to what drivel you have been talking about, but let me say this instead...a story is nothing but fiction if it can't let the audience understand the side of the villain” I added.

”VIllain? That's a rather interesting view.” Lacrimosa butted in the conversation while gushing forth this rather malevolent chuckles.

”Wait, what? Did you not read the terms and conditions upon signing the contract? How could you not know of the fundamentals?”

”Fortunately, no. Why would I? I was born to lead, not to read, and how am I supposed to do just that, given the detrimental situation I was in?”

”Ahhh. This is certainly not good. The goddess already had drowned him, he's been tainted by the adversary. There is no saving him now. Celes, can you do the pleasure please?” Deus Ex ecstatically said.

”Yes, your excellency” Celes finally talked, answering the call of the phantom deity.

Celes then stepped out ready to engage in battle, once again pointing her sword in our direction.
