Chapter 22.1 (1/2)

Mona.

That is the name of the fake goddess made with my hair as the material. In short, my clone.

If you ask why I know about her existence, the very reason was the person herself. Though it’s not like Modes was trying to hide her.

Though I don’t know the reason, someday she just appeared in my dream with me seeing her point of view.

Maybe because she is my clone.

Moreover, though I can get any information from her, she can’t do the same thing to me. Maybe that’s the distinguishing attribute between the original and the copy. It seems Mona doesn’t know that I can get information from her.

Thus, I know information about Nargol first hand while still remaining in Elios.

But then, I also come to know about information that I don’t want to know.

To make things worse, I am forced to see Mona and Modes having a s#x EVERY NIGHT. For some reason, I have to see the naked body of that ugly Modes even inside my dream; to be honest, it’s a nightmare to me. Why did it turn this way…

That’s why I summoned Reiji to defeat Modes.

But, my plan derailed since Modes also summoned Diehart.

Though I have consulted Casa, the goddess with the power to see the future, as to whether I can do something about Diehart, the result was nil. Casa’s power only enabled her to see a certain future amongst countless futures, so strictly speaking, she could only see into the future instead of predicting the future.

She can’t see the future that won’t happen or a future that doesn’t exist. Moreover, the ability itself is unstable and dangerous. That’s why I couldn’t rely on Casa beyond this.

I have no choice but to do this myself.

But, I only know the information about Nargol that Mona knows. It seems Modes doesn’t talk about too many things with Mona. Sometimes, the information was also unreliable.

The matter about Diehart’s summoning is also something that’s unknown to Mona until the very last minute. This is not because Modes didn’t trust Mona, he only wanted to find peace and comfort from Mona and didn’t intend to tell her about the problems in Nargol.

But, sometimes he informs her about some important information.

Thus, I knew the information about Diehart heading for the place of the silver holy dragon king to gain the ingredient to make my clone.

Thus, I decided to foil their plan.

But, Diehart is too powerful. It will be difficult to stop him with just me and my war maiden(Valkyrie) squad that’s composed of my subordinate female angels.

Their combat power is even weaker than the chivalric order of holy knights. Thus, I’m sure that they aren’t a match for Diehart who annihilated those holy knights.

That’s why I used Reiji.

That is the base of my plan.

I’m erecting a barrier at the entrance of the cave where the holy dragon king reside. This barrier will notify us when Diehart enters the cave.

And then, after Diehart trims the horn of the holy dragon king.

He’ll be stopped by Reiji when he comes out from the cave.

And then, my war maidens will snatch the horn while he’s distracted by them.

The bell that I gave to Reiji is to let them move toward the cave as soon as the bell notifies them about Diehart.

And then, when I received contact from a scouting war maiden that Diehart had already arrived at Rox kingdom, we came in a hurry to this land via a flying ship.

But then, though I contacted them yesterday, they just came today. I wonder what they did during that time.

Knowing their power, they should be able to come way faster than this.

Reiji aside, the people who came with him from another world are also powerful. To be honest, their powers rival the divine beings of Elios.

They’re treated as humans for the time being. But then, I’m pondering whether it’s okay to treat them the same way as humans.

Currently, they’re not treated as divine beings. Speaking of god, one isn’t a god unless one is nominated by the divine beings of Elios. One also won’t be treated as a divine being without the consent of the other gods of Elios.

And they won’t be treated as a superior race such as angel race or elven race since they have no special characteristics of those two races. That’s why, in the end, there’s no choice but to treat them in the same way as humans, a lower race. They have god-like power and yet they are humans. There was a time when we were troubled about how to treat them.

Now, I’m pondering about the reason for their tardiness. It might be due to Chiyuki. She opposed the idea of having Reiji fight against Diehart. Thus, I’m sure that she deliberately delayed their arrival.

I’ll be the one in trouble if they’re not going to clash. Otherwise, for what reason did I summon them, then?

If she becomes a hindrance, I have no choice but to use this…. I take a small bottle from my bosom.

Love potion.

The person who drinks this potion will fall in love with anyone they saw first. The magic potion has been further strengthened to an absurd level with charm magic. I will make Chiyuki drink this.

This is an extremely dangerous potion which will turn anyone who drinks this potion into a slave.

Though ruling magic should be enough in the case of a slave, the ability of the other party who becomes the target of this ruling magic is lowered as compensation… Though I want to use this magic, I don’t want to lower her ability.

But, this potion makes it possible for someone to rule over another without lowering the target’s ability.

And then, this potion was the potion that I was about to use on Reiji when I summoned him. It’s because the summoned target doesn’t necessarily act according to the will of the summoner.

Therefore, I prepared this potion in case things didn’t pan out as I wished.

But, I never had the chance to use this potion, since Reiji easily accepted my request. I guess I should have use this potion on Chiyuki from the very beginning.

But, there’s a restriction in the effect of this potion.

First, in regard to the target who drinks this potion, the other party must have some sort of affection toward the other party who they saw first. The magic potion will lose its effect if the other party’s race traits are too far apart. For example, a monkey who drank this potion won’t fall in love with a dog even if they saw a dog. Though it’ll be a different story if that monkey has some sort of strange tendencies. And then, even if both are of the same race, the effect will be greatly weakened if the target seen was extremely far apart from the preferences of the target. However, they’ll become good friends.

That should be enough in case I stealthily make Chiyuki to drink this. In short, it’s fine as long as she isn’t stopping Reiji from abiding my request.

Second, this potion will lose its effect in case the target is completely in love with another party. In short, this potion is ineffective after the the target drinks it once. At the same time, it will stop someone from loving a different person. It’s ineffective to someone who exists to love something from the very beginning or a familiar who exists to love their master due to the similar nature of love.

And, the effect of this potion varies depending on the magic resistance of the target and the quantity of the potion drank by them. The potion will lose its effect if a target with powerful resistance only drinks a small dose of the potion.

I wonder how much I should feed this potion to Chiyuki. The potion in my hand right now is an especially powerful magic potion, after all. One drop should be enough to make a normal human to love someone forever.

Then what dose should I use against a target whose magic resistance rivals those of divine beings?

This is the first and the last magic potion I can get my hands on. This potion is banned goods in Elios due to its extremely dangerous effect, after all.

Since the effect of this potion can’t be cancelled from outside once the target ingests it. One has to rely on their own magic resistance to cancel the effect of this potion.

Things won’t just end with banishment if it’s known that a divine being used this potion on their fellow divine beings of Elios. That’s just how dangerous this potion is.

It’s unknown how effective this magic potion is to someone who has magic resistant as powerful as the general populace of divine beings of Elios, since it’s never been used on any divine being.

The clash between Reiji and Diehart is a must.
