Chapter 362: Invitation Letter – (5)

Chapter 362: Invitation Letter – (5)

“I see… To think My Knight had married the Holy Maiden Anna-sama. I did hear from Noel that a lot happened, but to think it would be marriage. I see~.” (Furiae)

Furiae-san pinched my arm and looked at me with really humid eyes.

“N-Now, let’s talk about that some other time…” (Makoto)

My pinched arm hurts.

“Don’t tell me you have a hidden child somewhere~.” (Furiae)

“I don’t!” (Makoto)

That’s an unbelievable false accusation.

“Hey, does Princess Sofia know about the marriage 1,000 years ago?” (Furiae)

Furiae-san asked me with an ice cold gaze.

“I-I haven’t told her myself…I guess?” (Makoto)

“You are a bad man as well, Makoto-sama.” (Momo)

Even Momo is standing on the side of Furiae-san.

You were present when that happened!

“Sorry for revealing this, Spirit User-kun.” (Mel)

Mel-san said this apologetically.

“It is okay. It is not like I was absolutely adamant about hiding this.” (Makoto)

I didn’t go out of my way to tell them though.

“That’s fine then.” (Mel)

Mel-san is properly reading the invitation letter.

“Fumu, the venue will be in the West Continent, in the capital of Rozes, Horun… The place where Laberintos is, huh. Fuuh… That’s nostalgic.” (Mel)

“White Dragon Master is the head of Laberintos after all.” (Momo)

“I do remember exploring that place together with Anna-san and Momo.” (Makoto)

“Our King, that’s also where you gave me my name. You remember?” (Dia)

The Great Water Spirit, Dia, showed up by my side by the time I noticed.

“Please don’t show up all of a sudden with that insane mana of yours!” (Momo)

“Isn’t this normal, Shrimp?” (Dia)

Dia tilted her head at the reprimand of Momo.

“No, the Ancient Dragon village is panicking. It would be great if you were to restrain your mana a bit.” (Mel)

“…Muh.” (Dia)

Dia reluctantly turned her appearance half-transparent after being told this by the White Dragon-san.

(This exchange…is nostalgic.) (Makoto)

There’s the Great Sage-sama, the White Dragon-san, and the Great Water Spirit Dia.

If Anna-san were here too…

At that moment…

A loud voice rang from the sky.

“Is it true that Takatsuki Makoto has come?!”

The wind raged.

The ground shook with the sound of something landing.

My front turned dark.

That’s because a giant Ancient Dragon showed up all of a sudden in front of me.

“D-Dragon?!” (Furiae)

Furiae-san hid behind me.

Momo and Mel-san are not flustered at all.

They are acquaintances after all.

“The Ancient Dragon King, Astaroth, huh.” (Momo)

“Oh, Father.” (Mel)

Momo and Mel-san mutters this at the same time.

“Excuse the intrusion, Astaroth.” (Makoto)

“What are you saying, Makoto?! You are the lord of the Ancient Dragon village as the Dragon King! Feel yourself at home!” (Astaroth)

The Ancient Dragon King laughed with a hearty ‘Gahaha!’.

I am telling you I am not the Dragon King.

Looks like he came here after learning that I was in the Ancient Dragon village.

He is supposed to be the strongest Demon Lord in the world, but he is also a comrade that fought together with me against the Divine Beast.

Also, he is still borrowing the sacred treasure of Cain.

“By the way, who told you I was here?” (Makoto)

It doesn’t seem like the White Dragon-san was the one who called him.

“It was me, Our King.” (Dia)

“Eh?”

The one who unexpectedly answered was Dia.

“You got along that well with Astaroth, Dia?” (Makoto)

We may have fought together against Leviathan, but I have never seen these two talk with each other.

“My friend Makoto, it looks like I need to present to you my new comrade in order to answer that question of yours!” (Astaroth)

The Ancient Dragon King answered instead of Dia and a big gale happened.

“Wawa!”

“Kya!”

I supported Momo, who seemed like she would be sent flying by the wind, with my right hand, and I held down the skirt of Furiae-san’s dress with my left hand.

I was a second late and saw the purple underwear of Furiae-san.

“…Thanks.” (Furiae)

“No, thank you.” (Makoto)

“What are you saying, My Knight?” (Furiae)

She didn’t discover that I saw her underwear.

“That said, to suddenly use wind magic—” (Makoto)

I turned around to complain to the Ancient Dragon King, and couldn’t finish what I was saying.

There was a beautiful girl with green hair and faint green skin floating by the side of the Ancient Dragon King.

The green girl resembled Noah-sama.

“A Sylph…?” (Makoto)

A Great Wind Spirit showed up by the side of the Ancient Dragon King.

“That’s right! She has begun showing up a bit lately! It seems like your Great Water Spirit and my Great Wind Spirit interacted with each other.” (Astaroth)

“……”

The Ancient Dragon King said happily. freёnovelkiss.com

The Great Wind Spirit was looking down at me with a spaced out look.

“………Eh?” (Makoto)

I was panicking here.

The Ancient Dragon King has become a Spirit User?!

“Father worships Noah-sama after all. He has been training his Spirit Magic the whole time lately.” (Mel)

Mel-san told me this.

“So you really converted religions…” (Makoto)

He did say he would worship Noah-sama, but I didn’t expect him to be serious.

And most of all…

“Isn’t it too soon for you to be able to use a Great Wind Spirit?” (Makoto)

I used my lifespan and took a thousand years of training to finally get along with the Great Water Spirits.

“Father can use wind magic on Pseudo-God Rank level to begin with.” (Mel)

“He can do anything…” (Momo)

“That’s cheating…” (Makoto)

Momo and I retorted powerlessly at the words of the White Dragon-san.

“Hahaha! She doesn’t listen to me at all yet! She just shows up on a whim every now and then! I am still far from measuring up to you, my friend. Now then, later, Sya.” (Astaroth)

“………”

The Great Wind Spirit nodded and didn’t without saying a single word like the wind.

Or more like, she is wind itself.

“Hey, Astaroth, who is Sya?” (Makoto)

“Umu! I tried giving her a name, following your example. It seems she likes it.” (Astaroth)

He even named her?!

I doubt any Wind Spirit User can win against Astaroth.

I have to get along with the Time Spirits, so I can’t pay attention to the other Spirits.

(That said, since he is here…) (Makoto)

“Astaroth.” (Makoto)

I land in front of the Ancient Dragon King.

“What’s the matter, Makoto?” (Astaroth)

“Here.” (Makoto)

“…Muh? What’s this?” (Astaroth)

I gave him the invitation letter for my wedding and he looked at the paper in wonder.

“I will be having a wedding in the Water Country. Want to participate if you have the time?” (Makoto)

“Hooh, so it was a tradition from humans. It is my first experience, but it sounds interesting! I will be honored to participate!” (Astaroth)

“…You actually know about it, right?” (Makoto)

How do you know the perfect way to respond?

“Eh? Makoto-sama?!” (Momo)

“Wait, My Knight?!” (Furiae)

Momo and Furiae-san were flustered.

“What?” (Makoto)

“Don’t ‘what’ me!” (Momo)

“Is it okay to call a Demon Lord?! It will turn hectic!” (Furiae)

“Really? But he did help me out in the battle against Leviathan…” (Makoto)

I was thinking about inviting the Ancient Dragon King from the very beginning.

I was planning on entrusting the invitation letter to the White Dragon-san, but I am glad I could give it to him in person.

“No need to worry. I will use transformation magic to not stand out. I won’t bother you. It is the limelight of the Water Country’s princess after all.” (Astaroth)

“See? It is okay.” (Makoto)

I was relieved by the words of the Ancient Dragon King.

“I feel like…” (Momo)

“The Demon Lord has more common sense.” (Furiae)

Momo and Furiae-san are saying something rude.

(I have pretty much finished inviting all the people I wanted to invite, I guess…) (Makoto)

One more person left.

No, one god, huh.

“Well then, let’s go to the Deep Sea Temple, Momo, Princess.” (Makoto)

I spoke to the two.

I have to go meet Noah-sama.

The Water Goddess-sama and the others apparently contact Princess Sofia, but I think it is my duty as her Apostle to tell her in person.

“You are leaving already, Spirit User-kun?” (Mel)

“You can stay in the village for a few days.” (Astaroth)

The White Dragon-san and her father tried to stop me, and my heart shook a bit there.

But it wouldn’t be good to have Princess Sofia wait too much.

I will invite the people I need to invite and go back to the Water Country to make preparations.

That said, it is true that I wanted to take my time to talk a bit more with the White Dragon-san and Ancient Dragon King.

“Want to come with me to the Deep Sea Temple?” (Makoto)

I tried inviting the two.

Leviathan will let them through if they are with me.

“I will refrain. A Goddess-sama is not someone that can be met so casually.” (Mel)

“Makoto, I will one day go to the Deep Sea Temple by my own power.” (Astaroth)

Mel-san and Astaroth refused.

That said, Ancient Dragon King, isn’t it way too high of a hurdle to get through Leviathan by your own strength…?

He says he wants to do it, so I won’t stop him though.

I thanked the two and promised to meet them again at the wedding.

“Momo, Princess, hold my hand.” (Makoto)

“Please don’t mess up, Makoto-sama.” (Momo)

“You definitely must not let go of my hand!” (Furiae)

I grab the hands of Momo and Furiae-san tightly.

And then, I speak in Spirit language.

“Time Spirit-sans……[Teleport]!” (Makoto)

The scenery warped and we were covered in light.

◇◇

The pure white light went away and a vibrant flower bed that’s hard to believe is from this world spread before my eyes.

This is… I know where this is.

“Welcome, Makoto. Nice to see you have come.”

A clear voice like snow thawed water.

There’s no way I would mistake that voice. It is Noah-sama.

I managed to come to the Deep Sea Temple in one go with Teleport.

By the way, I told Momo and Furiae-san to close their eyes beforehand.

They would lose their minds if they were to see Noah-sama directly after all.

I faced Noah-sama, kneeled, and spoke to her.

“Noah-sama, please pardon the sudden visit. Actually, I have something to tell you…” (Makoto)

I was going to continue speaking, but someone interjected from the side.

“Oh, isn’t that Takatsuki Makoto? Is the Light Hero Ryosuke, who I chose, doing well?”

“And there’s even my Oracle.”

The ones who spoke were other Goddesses aside from Noah-sama.

Blonde hair that shines like the sun and pure white armor.

Silver hair like a shining star in the night and dark skin.

Both of them have beauty beyond human, and exude pressure on the same level as Noah-sama.

“Althena-sama and…Naia-sama…?” (Makoto)

We encountered a strange pairing.

>Ira-sama is so cute I lost it.

>I will end up becoming a stan for Ira-sama.

-Thank you very much.

>Lucy and Sa-san’s new outfits.

>Lucy had a lot of exposed skin because of her high body temperature, but wasn’t Sa-san against provocative clothes?

-The outfit of Sa-san is the influence of Lucy.

Also, she found it better to have clothes that are easier to move around in.
