Chapter 397


(397) Spread of miasma


Translator: Tseirp


The s.p.a.ce beyond the door – was not the G.o.ddess Tet’s s.p.a.ce that I knew .


After all, it didn’t have a mountain of books and her table .


Furthermore, I had a floating sensation . I could walk but I couldn’t tell which way was up and which way was down .


“Alpha-san!?”


I first saw Alpha-san, the homunculus .


I ran up to her .


She was breathing but unconscious .


She seemed to have collapsed while trying to reach something far away with her hand .


Her symptoms looked the same as Pionia and Neete .


“Tet-sama – s.h.i.t, she’s not here . ”


“She should be here . Where can she be –”


d.a.m.n, if Haru was here she could chase after her scent .


Kin Summon – would be impossible . Pulling her over now would endanger Carol and more importantly, I was told that I won’t be able to reach the surface from here . That probably meant that I couldn’t summon her here as well .


Normally I would use Eagle Eye to look for people but it would be pointless in this place with nothing in it .


“Libra-sama, in this situation, let’s rely on Alpha-san’s loyalty . ”


“… All right . Let’s move in the direction of where she is reaching out . ”


Yeah . In any case, we didn’t have any other clue so we could only rely on that .


After we decided on that, golden sand appeared in Libra-sama’s hand and stretched out straight .


In a world with no landmarks, it would be difficult to walk in a straight line . I see, it would act as a good guide .


Libra-sama and I relied on the gold line and walked straight . That said, it felt as though I was swimming rather than walking .


In a huge body of water floating in s.p.a.ce, we advanced with oxygen cylinders attached – perhaps it would be more difficult to understand with that a.n.a.logy .


“Hn? That is –”


I don’t know how far we’ve traveled but unlike when we first came to this world, I saw some kind of black aura .


“It seems that her loyalty is without question . ”


“Is that Tet-sama?”


“Probably so . ”


“What is that darkness?”


“Miasma . Miasma dense enough to be visualized is flowing into the G.o.ddess s.p.a.ce … When Ichinojo-san and Kota-san used the G.o.ddess Statue ability to absorb miasma to temporarily stop the incident in Mallegory, the dense miasma in Mallegory was channeled to her s.p.a.ce in an instant . ”


“It’s because of us …”


As a result of trying to protect the town, we ended up causing Tet-sama suffering?


Although I had no way of knowing it, I couldn’t help blaming myself .


If we can’t allow more miasma to gather at Tet-sama’s s.p.a.ce, the plan to let Carol gather the monsters in the Advanced Dungeon would fail too .


After exterminating the monsters, they would return to miasma and it would be easier to purify .


But if we exterminate the monsters in front of the Advanced Dungeon, the resulting miasma would flow to Tet-sama’s place .


“It is not your fault . This is our duty as G.o.ddesses – To avoid the same mistake as Metias, we placed G.o.ddess Tet, the G.o.ddess positioned closest to her, the furthest away from the task of purifying miasma . If the miasma had flowed in to anywhere apart from where G.o.ddess Tet is – even if it flowed to the G.o.ddess of Laziness, G.o.ddess Torerul, she would have been able to purify it . ”


The same mistake as Metias .


I wonder what happened between Libra-sama and Metias-sama?


And why doesn’t Libra-sama refer to Metias-sama as a G.o.ddess too? Even though she makes sure to add ‘G.o.ddess’ to the other G.o.ddesses’ name .


“Koshmar-senpai and Setolance-senpai would easily deal with this amount . ”


… Ah I was wrong . She only added ‘G.o.ddess’ to Tet-sama, Minerva-sama, and Torerul-sama . I guess even the G.o.ddesses have seniority .


I felt like I got a glimpse of the human – no, G.o.ddess relations between the G.o.ddesses .


Setolance-sama surprisingly does things at her own pace, Torerul-sama is lazy, and Minerva-sama only thinks of dying . Koshmar-sama and Libra-sama have it tough .


“Ku …”


As we approached the miasma, I fundamentally knew that it was not something humans could touch .


If I was a waterfowl, this black miasma would be tar .


If I touched it, I would never fly in the sky again – I felt that sense of danger .


“Libra-sama, are we able to do something about this?”


“That is why I came here . ”


Libra-sama said and plunged her right hand into it .


Perhaps the miasma entered Libra-sama through her hand as the black miasma clung to her arm and her expression distorted in agony .


Even her clothes were dyed black .


“Ku – it’s stronger than I had thought . ”


Libra visibly put more effort into it .


The black miasma wrapped around her arm thinned and her clothes returned to its original white color .


And a path within the miasma gradually formed from her arm .


“ … Fu, Ichinojo-san . Please come along . Try your best to not touch the miasma . ”


“Understood . I won’t touch it even if you ask me to . ”


I walked along the path that formed within the miasma .


There was plenty of s.p.a.ce in the pa.s.sage but I still felt a sense of uneasiness from the fear of touching the miasma .


“Um, can’t we use – Light Magic to purify it all in an instant?”


“The power of miasma is fundamentally different from the attribute of darkness so it would be meaningless . ”


“ … I see . ”


I have seen Miri’s Darkness Magic multiple times but I had never felt this unpleasant .


“Right – if you are still worried, the Barrier Magic – Holy Mirror that you can use might be able to prevent the erosion from miasma – miasma may not pa.s.s through but it would not reduce the miasma either . ”


“Holy Mirror?”


I had such a spell?


Thinking back, I somewhat recall learning Barrier Magic .


At that time, I was surprised by x.x.xX ranking up so I didn’t commit it to memory .


“Why don’t you remember your own spells?”


“Sorry, the kinds of spells I have increased too much …”


I had not gotten around managing them .


I’ll have to thoroughly organize my skills and spells .


“In that case, Holy Mirror!”


After chanting, a barrier sphere emitting faint light wrapped around Libra-sama and me .


However, as it doesn’t reduce the miasma, I felt the miasma pushing back against the barrier whenever it touches it .


I felt like a pinball .


I guess it was okay since I didn’t have to worry about touching the miasma .


“We can see it now – G.o.ddess Tet should be there . ”


At the end of the pa.s.sage – there was a black coc.o.o.n-like object .


Tet-sama was inside that?


“Ichinojo-san, good work . Please wait in this barrier . ”


Libra-sama said, approached the black coc.o.o.n, and tried to dispel the miasma like before .


It took longer than before .


Once, the miasma even encroached up to her shoulder .


I was clenching my teeth since I couldn’t help out .


“ – This should be … the end . ”


After Libra-sama sighed and said that, the black coc.o.o.n-like miasma split into two and Tet-sama could be seen within .


But she looked strange .


“Libra-sama – Tet-sama’s hair – !?”


G.o.ddess Tet-sama’s hair was originally brown like Miri . Despite that, her hair was currently dyed black .


A black that was similar to the miasma .


“She is being corroded by the miasma – I have to quickly suck it out . ”


Libra-sama commented and placed her hand on Tet-sama’s head .


At that moment, sparks scattered along with a violent sound and Libra-sama’s body was wrapped in miasma and blown toward me .


She crossed through my barrier and I caught her body .


“Libra-sama, are you all right!?”


“Yes, I’m thankful for your barrier . Without it, I would have been eroded by the miasma and Ichinojo-san would have been in trouble too for catching me . ”


The miasma wrapped around Libra-sama was left outside the barrier when she flew through it . It would have been dangerous without the barrier .


And then, Tet-sama who blew away Libra-sama slowly stood up and looked at me .


“Tet-sama! Get a hold of yourself!”


“She is being controlled by miasma – at this rate, she will turn out the same as Metias and – become a Demon G.o.d . ”


Libra-sama said .


“Demon G.o.d!?”


I shouted – at that moment .


The world shook .


An earthquake happened even though the world didn’t have a surface .


“She is slowly losing her ident.i.ty as a G.o.ddess and there is no power to maintain this G.o.ddess s.p.a.ce . This world will collapse at any time . Ichinojo-san, leave at once . ”


“But Tet-sama!”


At this rate, she will – just as I was hesitating .


“I’m sorry for being late, Ichinosuke!”


I heard a female voice call my real name .


A spear of light fell from the sky and stabbed Tet .


The G.o.ddess that appeared with the spear was the most reliable G.o.ddess during a time like this – G.o.ddess of War, Setolance-sama .
