「About that! You already said this to me, right?! Rampaging around here is bad!」
「I will not rampage around indiscriminately. All I want is a duel.」
「Then, if Yoro-san wins, will the god disappear from this country?」
「I don’t know about that. All I know that not fighting him seriously will be bad.」
This is not good. I thought that he was decent, but he was muscle brained all along. Why are there only these kinds of people around me?
「However, I’m screwed. That thundercloud is probably the real god’s underling. I was planning to apply for the duel openly, but it seems like I have already started the fire of war… Doesn’t seem like I can hope for a duel anymore. It is going to be a battle where we aim for each other’s lives, it is going to be a questionable battle of kill or be killed. Well, that will probably be fun as well…fufu.」
「Why are these kind of people so unusually positive?」
Rēko pipes up with 「Well then, it seems like our plan is decided. Evil Dragon-sama, let’s start destroying the god of this country.」
「Will you not try to decide the plan yourself, and put your own radical goal into it?」
Despite my sorrow, Rēko and Yoro-san are somehow optimistic—or rather, they are just happy as usual. Why am I the only one that has to suffer? This world is so terribly unfair.
「Anyway, Yoro-san, in your story, the god that you know is not the thundercloud, right? Are you sure about that?」
「Of course, the god must be a very strong person to defeat the former me.」
「Then, why don’t you look at it with your usual clairvoyance, Rēko? I will go and apologize for what Yoro-san has done and try to convince them that we are not hostile.」
「I have no hostility but my fighting spirit is going “Baribari” you know. Like lightning.」
「Shut up you.」
Even though he is just four days old, he just said a pun. Is this also his previous life’s influence?
When I am amazed at how carefree Yoro-san is, Rēko’s eyes shined as she received my order.
「…mu.」
「Did you find him?」
When I asked, Rēko’s eyes shined much more as she wrinkled her eyebrows.
「…there is some sign. Some sign of a very mighty person …but I can’t specify its location. It is hiding its magical power very cleverly. If I didn’t have clairvoyance, I probably wouldn’t see a sign that “The real god is here”.」
Rēko, who just failed to detect the god, was down for a while. But she soon grasped her fist tightly as she regained her energy.
「The whole reason this is happening because that god fled out of fear from Evil Dragon-sama.」
「No, Rēko. The reason is probably something else.」
With her statement immediately denied by me, Rēko stiffened her expression as if she was surprised.
「Why is that, Evil Dragon-sama?」
「Because if you look at the state of this city, it looks like this country has been worshipping the thundercloud rather than “The real god” for a long time. It probably means that the real god has been hiding itself for a long time before we came.」
Rēko seems to be still unconvinced, but Yoro-san nodded smoothly to my opinion.
「He’s right. It is impossible to build the statues and decorations of the cathedral overnight. Looks like the real god has retired and the thundercloud took its place.」
「Maybe he is tired of the role of god and wants to live a retired life. Then, he left it to Thundercloud-san to take care of the rest…」
I imagined for a moment the scenario of replacing the true god’s position with myself. If a very strong person like Yoro-san would attack regularly, it certainly seems like it would be exhausting.
「Evil Dragon-sama, it is just a simple talk right now, but if you want to retire and relax someday, please feel free to contact me. I will act as an amazing Evil Dragon-sama stand in, and the real Evil Dragon-sama can rest without any worries.」
「But I was already retired from the very beginning.」
Rather, Rēko is the one that pulled me out from my 5000 year long retreat.
「That is right. It was the hated Demon King who awakened Evil Dragon-sama who was enjoying eternal peace with great anger.」
「Hm? Did I do that?」
「Rēko, I was already confused by the setting so stop adding your own complaints of the Demon King. Ah, don’t worry about it Yoro-san. We are talking about a different Demon King.」
「Umu.」
Because there are two people with high potential to go on a rampage, I was twice as tired as usual.
And then, even if I depended on Rēko, I still can’t find the location of the real god.
「Well, we should be able to find an opportunity to talk somehow.」
When I was in the middle of my worries, Rēko raised her hand.
「I have a good idea. If I attack the festival that is going to be held and do my best to overrun it, will the real god show itself?」
「Hou. Little girl, you—you are pretty wise.」
「Are you sure about that Yoro-san? Didn’t you tell me that you are not going to rampage around indiscriminately? And it will be the end of the talks if we launch the first attack okay?」
“I see.” said Rēko and Yoro-san while nodding. These people are not good at all. While they have good fighting capabilities, they have a serious defect in their humanity. Well, one of them isn’t a human but a Demon King though.
「However, I agree that the festival is an opportunity even if we rule out attacking it. As long as it is a god of this country, it should feed on the faith of the people. And they will show up when they eat it. It would be very likely that their hideout will be more sloppy than usual.」
「Oh, you just said something decent. I am very glad.」
Speaking of which, the Saintess herself is very delighted to see the play at the mud festival. The god of this country may appear secretly depending on the tension.
「Well…you are right. Then, I will go to the research institute as planned. I personally want to find out, so I will ask them about the festival. And whether or not they have a way to talk to the god.」
「Umu, I will be counting on you. Then, what should I do in the meantime?」
「Don’t cause any problems and kill time in a bar or something. Yeah, do that.」
「Understood. Ahh, I really can’t wait for the opportunity of revenge.」
I decided to leave Yoro-san at a bar and head to the laboratory with Rēko.
For the time being, even if I managed to get in touch with the god, let’s not tell Yoro-san about it.
