63 【side story】the moment of sisterhood (1/2)
”That idiot... what the hell does he want? .... ”What the hell does that idiot want?
It's the goddess Victinius who is muttering to herself. I've been looking into Masaru's activities from the heavens with a divine tool called the mirror of the present world while I work.
The mirror shows Masaru boiling a whole giant crab a short distance from the beastmen's tent... with Lime, of course.
”Why don't we eat at your place?
”I'll give you meat, fish, or anything like that, but not crabs... if that many people start eating them as a taste test, there won't be enough!
”You're a little more cunning than you think: .... I'm not surprised.
”I haven't eaten a luxury item like crab in four years! I haven't had a crab in four years! I'm not letting anyone get in my way. .... I don't want anyone getting in my way.
I'm not going to let anyone get in my way. I'm not letting anyone get in my way.
I'm not going to let you get away with it.
I've never been that particular about food, but I wonder if it's that good... I'd love to go and try it, but that cat person's daughter is in the way. .... I don't know.
I was puzzling over how I could eat it.
”Sister? I'm sure you've done your job. Are you sure you've done your job? ...I haven't even talked about coming down to earth in nearly 600 years, but ever since I brought her into this world, she's been asking me for help .... ”I don't want to be petty.
”Don't give me that crap, Isla! Look at that! I heard it's really good! I'm not sure if it's a good idea, but it's a good idea. And it's so good that people go crazy over it and become silent while eating it!
You're not going to go and ask for it, are you?
No, I'm not! I'm not going to go! If there's a cat-people girl, feel free to come down! That's not going to happen!
You're going if there isn't... sister? You're a god, after all. I'm sure you're not the only one who has a problem with that. ”Then how do you get crabs?
It's not that I don't like crabs.
I'm not going to give up eating crabs, it seems, and if I leave it like this, my sister will definitely go down to earth.
I'm not sure what to do. As I told you before, you can send a message to his menu. So far, so good, right?
”I know, I used it again. I know.
”Did you also hear that this feature is a byproduct of the update you made the other day to send him something you promised him?
”What? I'm not going to turn around and say... you haven't forgotten about that story? I thought you'd forgotten. .... What is it, Sister?
What's the matter, Sister?
No, it's nothing... it's personal. So, you have the ability to send things?
I'm sure you've heard of it, but I'm not sure if you've heard of it or not. I was thinking that if you put it in the item box, get permission, and take it out, you can eat it. What do you think?
The two of us can't eat all of those big ones anyway, can we? If you have some left over, it might be a good idea for Ira to send you a message and then we can eat it together. Let's eat together.
I'm sure you'll be happy to hear that I'm not the only one who has a problem with this.
...It's done! Now I'm going to send you a message!
Isla Sephira was excited to be eating alone with her sister Victinius for the first time, and was composing her message... but ....
I'm sorry. ...another message ........., which means give me the crab .... Hey, Lime? Do you think this crab will stay?
”...Mug? I'll boil another one. That might be a bit much... but I'll eat it if I can find it!
