Chapter 187 (2/2)
Well I’m troubled… Because I don’t know where they went, I can’t help them…
While I was being absorbed in thought, the guild card in my breast pocket shined and in front of my eyes a pillar of light appeared.
… Ah, I know where this is going…
Soon after, from the pillar of light a woman appeared.
She had a hair blue as the deep sea that extended down to her waist, slanted eyes that made you wonder whether she had them open or not, facial features so beautiful it would make everyone turn their faces towards her, and she was splendidly wearing a dress so deeply blue that it was close to black that shined blindingly. You could feel her sensuality just from her standing… Seeing her appear like this I have no doubt that she is a goddess and one I haven’t met before so that means…
“Nice to meet you, I am the Goddess of Sea.”
The woman that called herself the Goddess of Sea gave an elegant bow. I was thinking that she might be her. I imitate her and also lower my head and ask to make sure.
“H-Haa… Uhm… Are you the real one?”
“Of course.”
Saing that, the Goddess of Sea wears the already familiar aura as proof. How to say it, at this point, I’m already used to it. When the Goddess of Light did it before I got surprised but now I feel I can take it with just a ‘Ah, okay okay.”
After being satisfied with the proof, the Goddess of Sea suppresses her aura and like that I ask her.
“And why are you here, Goddess of Sea?”
“Of course beacuse Wazu is troubled and this time it concerns the sea… So I thought that it was my turn so I manifestated myself.”
I’m glad for your feelings but, Didn’t the Goddess of Light say that you were saving up power for the contermeasures for the Evil God? Well I won’t deny that it helps a lot… Now, speaking about the Evil God, didn’t the Goddess of Darkness say some things about the other Goddesses…? If I remember correctly…
“… That the Goddes of Sea has a heart* as narrow as a pond or something… (whispers)” (T/N: Heart as in mind, or more exactly she is narrow-minded)
I mutter what I recalled just to make sure in a murmur as to not be heard but, it seems that my mutter gets to the ears of the Goddess of Sea and a dark smile appears in her face. When a beauty does that it’s kind of scary…
“That is something the Goddess of Darkness said, right…? But I shall forgive her.”
“Eh?”
“My heart is as big as the ocean. And thus I shall forgive what that Goddess of Darkness said. Why because, those are completely groundless words. I am the Goddess of the Sea, you know? There is no way that I’m narrow-minded. Instead, isn’t the Goddess of Darkness that said that the narrow-minded one? What a sad truth. She can’t accept herself as she is. Well, I don’t care what people like that say to me. Why of course, my heart is so vast that it can swallow this great ocean. But no matter how tolerant I am, I can’t possibly leave the Goddess of Darkness like that. I shall hammer into her body how narrow-minded she is and make her accept my big-heartedness. But if she were to accept the hammer of my great heart, that narrow-minded Goddess of Darkness might despair from the great difference and might sever her own life. Well, if so, then it cannot be helped…”
You care a lot!! And yet you have the nerve to say that you are so open-minded?! And besides, the last part exudes with killing intent towards the Goddess of Darkness!!
Let sleeping dogs lie*… Let’s not touch this matter again…
(T/N: This is a pun. The proverb says something in the line of “If you don’t touch God, you won’t get cursed”… Should I have just used that?)
