Chapter 114.1: Toward Gypseal Region
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
◆Goddess of Wisdom and Victory; Rena
I was currently leaving Elios to visit Eld Kingdom, the country that Reiji and co had created. As for the reason, it was simply because Ishtar was there.
Eld Kingdom was located in the wetlands at the center of the Vandohl plain. After the demon beast who ruled the region, Peluda, was exterminated, Eld was built on top of a cliff with a good water source.
It seems that the population was really small at first since it was only composed of the people who yearned for the Hero, but I heard that the country’s population had increased a lot lately.
Anyways, it seems there was a rumor about an irrigation project starting there, but by doing so, they would meet the opposition of the Toadmen and Lizardmen. But well, their resistance would be futile in front of Reiji’s power. It would turn into one-sided slaughter so that humans could expand their living place.
Not that I cared about such things.
「The poison of the Scorpion God is needed, right Rena-chan?」
I, who was guided into the royal palace, was asked so by Ishtar-sama.
「Yes, Ishtar-sama, only then can we make the antidote. In addition, Giltar’s little sister, Bruhl, is living in Gypseal too. We might be able to get the poison from her.」
I nodded while replying to her.
Upon a closer look, I noticed she was sticking really close to Reiji. It seems she was aiming for him. Well, after all, Reiji was as handsome as my twin brother Alphos. It was enough reason for her to try to court him.
But then, Reiji had a lover, namely me (LMAO). Moreover, she doesn’t seem to be serious either. Maybe she just wanted to tease me. Well, maybe I should act like an annoyed woman for now.
I glared lightly toward the two.
「I see~. Understood, Rena-chan. By the way, can I ask you something?」
「Is something the matter?」
「I alone might not be enough to get the poison from Gypseal, can you grant me permission to take him with me?」
She sent a flirtatious glance toward Reiji as she spoke. Chiyuki and the others pouted upon seeing that. I was used to this scene since it was rather similar to what happened with Alphos on a daily basis.
「Sure, feel free to take him with you.」
I acted like a pouting woman after I said so, and then turned around.
Now I’ve finished my job.
I guess it was safe to go back to Elios now.
I sent a glance toward Shirone who was lying in bed. There was no sign of her waking up anytime soon. I hope she never wakes up from this state, forever.
◆Black Haired Sage; Chiyuki
「Oh my~. She seems to be angry, Reiji-kun.」
I teased Reiji after Rena left the room.
Goddess Ishtar was glued to Reiji’s side. Sahoko was clearly in a bad mood upon seeing that.
「Is that so? She doesn’t seems to be that angry in my eyes.」
Rino shook her head.
「Is that so? If Rino’s saying that, then it must be true, but she might be a bit jealous though.」
Nao agreed with Rino as she sent a meaningful gaze toward Reiji.
「Okay, enough with the teasing, everyone. We still have to do something about Shirone’s situation.」
「Uh!! Yes!」
I was rendered speechless upon hearing such a sound argument. We really should prioritize Shirone’s condition for now. We should be able to get our hands on the poison of the Scorpion God by using Ishtar’s influence.
「Are you done now? If that’s the case, let’s go, Reiji.」
「Okay. Understood, Ishtar. Let’s find the antidote for Shirone. I’ll meet you guys in Gypseal. Ah, everyone please wait for a moment.」
Everyone was disappointed upon seeing Reiji act that way.
「Wait Reiji-kun!! I’m going too!!」
「NAO TOO!!」
「RINO TOO!! RINO WANTS TO SAVE SHIRONE-SAN TOO!!」
Except for Kyouka and Kaya, who always stayed at home, and the pregnant Sahoko, Nao and Rino would come with us.
「Can we take them too, Ishtar?」
Ishtar seemed to be troubled when Reiji made such a request.
「U~hm. I think it’s not a good idea to bring too many people with us. But yeah, I can do something about it if it’s just one person.」
She said so with an impish look on her face.
Hearing that, we all exchanged looks between us.
Who would go then?
It would take a while for us to decide this matter.
「I’ll go, Ishtar.」
When I declared so, Rino and Nao couldn’t help but back down, since they knew that I was the best candidate to go.
「Sure enough, Chiyuki-san is qualified to go…」
「Can’t be helped then… Be careful, Chiyuki-san.」
「You too, please take care of this place while we’re away, Kaya-san.」
「Yes. I’ll leave the matter of finding Shirone-sama’s antidote to you.」
Naturally.
「Well then. Shall we head to Gypseal then?」
Ishtar said so as if enjoying the situation.
◆Dark Knight; Kuroki
I came to the Demon King’s Castle, heading towards Loughas’ library.
Though Elios’ library had a bigger collection, since going to Elios took a lot of time and preparation, I chose to go to Loughas’ library when I wasn’t looking for something in particular.
Entertainment was rare in Nargol. For that reason, reading was my sole enjoyment in this place.
I visited Loughas’ room. When I entered his room, I found out that he had a rare visitor.
「Goddess Totona. How rare to see you visiting this place.」
The visitor was none other than the Goddess of Book and Knowledge, Totona. Totona and Loughas were already drinking tea in the room. I nodded to her.
「Long time no see, Kuroki. You rarely come to visit our library nowadays.」
Totona returned my greeting, and sent a complaint at the same time.
「My apologies for that, Totona. I can’t go to your library since the security has become too tight lately.」
「Must be Rena’s deed. She seems to hate you so much. She seems to be itching to prevent you from meeting me.」
Totona heaved a sigh.
I tilted in puzzlement upon hearing such a remark. I mean, Rena didn’t seem to hate me that much. In the first place, I had no idea what she was thinking about.
「Nevertheless, what are you doing here? I mean, it’s rare to see you visiting this place.」
I looked at Loughas, the owner of the room.
「Totona is asking for my opinion, Kuroki-dono. She wanted to save her big brother who fell into a comatos state due to the Scorpion God’s poison.」
Loughas explained to me while smoking his pipe. The nice aroma from the pipe filled the room.
Speaking of Totona’s big brother, she must be referring to the God of Strength and Battle, Thors. Seriously, what the hell happened to him?
「Sorry Totona, this Loughas is too weak to help you. The matter of making an antidote should be left to someone who is much better at making medicine such as Heqat-dono.」
「As I thought, it really is the case, eh…」
Totona hung her head down upon hearing that. Seeing her face, she must really want to save her big brother.
「As expected, so I have no choice but to go to Gypseal, huh. Ishtar-sama and the Hero of light might be able to do something, but… I feel just them wouldn’t be enough.」
Totona seemed to be worrying about them.
「Wait, the Hero of light? Why is he going to Gypseal too?」
