Chapter 26: 26

Elven Forest where the World Tree is located.

According to Demiurge, it’s located far to the east of the Glaive Wilderness.

Incidentally, the Glaive Wilderness is located at the western edge of the continent.

So it seems that we’ve moved across the continent after the battle.

Demiurge said that the self-destruct spell I cast created a spatial distortion that sent us to that forest.

Well, I’ll leave it at that.

I got the location of the town from Demiurge, and now I was walking straight down the street I’d found.

On my shoulder, I carried a hastily made bag made of materials from the forest.

The bag contained Kill Rabbit pelts and medicinal herbs from the forest.

And now, next to me, there was Demiurge with his silver hair in full swing…

“You know, I knew this was a bad idea…”

“What?!”

Demiurge tilts her head.

Her silver hair, which had been too long, was now shortened to around her waist, swaying softly with the movement of her neck.

Gazing at me with her purple crystal amethyst eyes, she is, to say the least, beautiful.

However, her true identity is that of the creator god who is said to have created this world, as well as a demon god who until recently had been trying to exterminate humans all over the world.

She’s walking in the same direction next to me as I head towards the town where humans live.

In short, she’s attached to me.

It was this morning when I left for the town. It was right after the sun came up.

Demiurge had insisted on following me, and she had followed me quite forcefully.

By the way, I left Phoenix behind to protect the World Tree.

She didn’t seem to like it, but I couldn’t leave the forest empty, so I forced her to accept it.

Demiurge also helped me to persuade her.

“Demiurge, you were an enemy of all mankind a few years ago. It’s not good for such a person to enter a human town, in many ways.”

“It can’t be helped. My husband is still withholding his answer from me. Every day I bathe him, feed him by mouth, and sleep with him until morning, all to show him my love, and yet he has not given me an answer.”

“No, no, no. What has that got to do with this trip?”

“If husband does not show his love for me, he may change his mind to a human woman. That would be too much. I love you so much.”

“Ehh…”

So, the reason Demiurge is with me is…

“I have to keep a close watch on you so that you don’t indulge in other women. Do you have a problem with that?”

No, I’m sure there are plenty of problems.

First of all, you are a demon god who was trying to destroy humans, and you have different sensibilities and common sense than humans.

It’s also very likely that Demiurge, who knows little about human society, will suddenly enter the town and get into trouble.

There are a lot of bad people out there.

…Well, I used to be that bastard and caused a lot of trouble for everyone around me.

I’m sure I’ve made up for it in my own way, but that’s just me being self-conscious.

It doesn’t erase the fact that I caused trouble.

I’ll have to keep that in mind.

“There’s no guarantee that you won’t cause any trouble when you enter the human town. If it were possible, I would have preferred you to wait for me in the forest.”

“Don’t be foolish. I am a creator god, and I have no trouble blending in with human society.”

“……”

Demiurge shows a confident expression with her chest out.

I mean, where does that useless, baseless confidence come from…?

“I would never do anything that would cause trouble for you. Don’t worry.”

This is the girl who is both a creator god and a demon god.

To be honest, the thought of entering the town with her made me sick to my stomach.

I should have forced her to wait there…

◆◇◆◇◆

About half a day after we left the forest… We arrived at the town of Cid just as the sun was setting.

“Houu, that’s a big outer wall. It’s as high as you can see.”

“That’s because the wall was built to keep demons out of the town. If it were low, it wouldn’t matter.”

In front of us was a towering wall made of piled stones.

Straight ahead of us from the street stood a gate guard, stopping those entering the town to inspect their cargo and check their identity.

“Demiurge, this is human territory now. I’ll talk to the soldier, so don’t say a word. If he asks you anything, just nod or shake your head.”

“Well, if that is what husband says, then I will obey.”

Demiurge nodded obediently.

Finally, we were approaching the main gate of the town.

The soldier looked at us, his gaze shining sharply.

“Stop. Do you have any identification on you?”

“I’m sorry, I have nothing. Can we enter the town without identification?”

“No, as long as you know exactly what you’re doing, you can enter. However, you will not be allowed to bring in any weapons, so you will have to leave them here.”

I see. It seems that they don’t have such a strict ban on entry and exit.

However, they will confiscate weapons and other items in consideration of the possibility that the other party is a bandit.

We don’t have any weapons, though, so it’s not a problem.

“We’re here to make money by selling things. Here are the things.”

I opened a bag I had made myself out of leaves and vines and pulled out a few kill rabbit pelts.

I also showed the soldiers some medicinal herbs that I had collected in the forest.

I left the Holy Apple in the space storage.

I don’t want to be questioned about where it came from.

“Hmm, furs, herbs. No other possessions. Any weapons?”

“No weapons.”

“Not even a knife?”

“Yeah.”

“About the little girl?”

“She’s with me. She’s not carrying a weapon or anything.”

“We’re going to take a look at your clothes, just in case. I’ll go get a female soldier now. Wait here for a moment.”

With that, the soldier ran to the guard station behind the gate.

After a while, he came back with a woman.

We were each searched to make sure we were not carrying any weapons or explosives.

We were allowed to enter the town without incident.

“I don’t mean to be a bother, but if you’re going to be selling things in town, I suggest you sign up for the Commercial Guild. The notes issued to you will serve as your identification, and if you plan to be active in this town, it’s a good idea.”

“Thank you. It’s a commercial guild. I’ll keep that in mind.”

“Don’t worry about it. Also, that young lady over there seems to be quite pretty, so make sure you protect her from any strange people.”

“Yeah, I’ll see you later.”

“Wait, wait. Here.”

“Hmm? ―――Tto.”

The soldier threw a few coins at me as I tried to get through the gate.

“You didn’t have any money, did you? The commercial guilds have already closed for the day, so you’ll have to wait until tomorrow to sell your goods.”

“Oh, you mean…”

“That’s right. It’s not like I’m going to let your little girl stay out in the open.”

Oh well. I can’t even go to the guild anymore today, so I guess I’ll have to stay in the wild.

Well, both Demiurge and I have been camping out in the woods for a long time, and now it’s too late.

There are not only good people but also bad people in the town, so there is a concern that trouble with Demiurge may develop.

This soldier is a pretty good guy, isn’t he?

“I wouldn’t do this if it was just you, but I’ll lend you the money if it’s for your beautiful daughter. I’ll be here every day, so you can pay me back when you get out of town.”

“Ah, yeah. Thanks.”

“No, no, no. Just double it back to me. Hahaha!”

He’s a good guy, isn’t he?

No, it’s okay. He’s just trying to help. I don’t want to get in trouble for camping out with Demiurge.

We were sent off by a soldier with a hearty laugh, and entered the town.

◆◇◆◇◆

However, at this time, from the shadows of a building near the entrance, there was a presence looking at Ares and the others.

It was a sharp-eyed woman with long gray hair flowing down her back.

However, Ares and his friends did not notice the presence lurking in the darkness of the town as the sun set…
