Chapter 116: Chapter 103- Dropping Ophidia Off

[Luna POV]

After breakfast the next day, I teleported us to Celestia Kingdom’s capital.  I brought Ophidia over to the guild while Velvet and Soleil went shopping for the few things we needed at the island.  When we entered the guild and went over to Tomoe, she immediately led us to Grey.  When we entered his office, he was sitting behind his desk.

 

“Morning ladies.” (Grey)

 

“You seem busy.” (Luna)

 

“Yeah, I’m going through reports from the Dwarf nation.  They had a large cave in in one of their cities and the guild building there was one of the buildings that got destroyed.” (Grey)

 

“Do you want us to go and help there?” (Luna)

 

“It would take you too much time to get there since you can’t teleport there yet.” (Grey)

 

“Then do you want us to come back at another time?” (Luna)

 

“Nah.  The training will only take two actual days to finish, I can catch up with this much work in a few hours.” (Grey)

 

“Then I’ll leave Ophidia in your hands, don’t give her any strange ideas.  That’s my job.” (Luna)

 

“Haha.  Fine, I’ll hold back this time.” (Grey)

 

“When you’re done here Ophidia, leave the guild building and teleport back to the island.” (Luna)

 

“I understand master, please look forward to my progress.” (Ophidia)

 

“As some motivation, I’ll cook you some extra wyvern meat when you’re done.” (Luna)

 

Ophidia’s eyes started to gleam when she heard my words.

 

“Great One, we must hurry and start.” (Ophidia)

 

“Yes, yes, follow me.” (Grey)

 

The two of them left the office and entered one of the vault doors lining the hallway.  When it shut, I could hear the sound of it locking.

 

‘Guess I should go and find the other two now.  I hope I won’t be a third wheel.’

 

{I think you’ll be fine.}

 

I left the guild and as I was about to start looking for Velvet and Soleil when I got the feeling that I knew where they were.  I started to walk in that direction and asked Tamamo about this.

 

‘Do you know what’s up Tamamo?’

 

{What do you mean?}

 

‘Well, I was going to just walk around the shopping district and hope to find them, but when I thought of looking for Velvet, I immediately knew where she was.’

 

{I do know the reason, but I won’t tell you yet.}

 

‘Why not?’

 

{Because I know you, and the answer will cause you to ignore things in order to level faster.  It’s selfish, but I don’t want to see you like that.}

 

‘Ok, then I’ll wait for you to tell me when you’re ready.’

 

{Thank you.}

 

As I was on the way to my destination, I decided to make a ‘small’ detour.  I turned around and went in the direction of the castle.

 

{Where are you going?}

 

‘I wanted to see how the shrine construction was going.’

 

{That is important.}

 

After 30 minutes of walking, I made it to my future shrine.  Even though it was only about half finished, it was impressive and a little nostalgic.

 

‘Reminds me of home.’

 

{It is based on the design of my shrine after all, but it also has some differences.}

 

‘That’s true.  Even if it’s not finished yet, I can already see that it will be the equal to yours.’

 

After looking at the shrine for a few more minutes I started walking to Velvet and Soleil again.

 

‘Hey Tamamo, do you have other shrines or temples that correspond to your other Authorities?’

 

{It would be a lie to say I don’t, but the only one I have blessed is the one you lived in.  That one is considered my main shrine, while the others would be considered unofficial branches.  You will eventually find yourself going to the Temple of Night when you confront that delusional vampire, so I’ll talk about it more later.}

 

‘What about a place dedicated to gravity?’

 

{I wouldn’t call that one a temple but more of a small construct.  That one, along with similar ones, is in the Elf nation.  For some reason they think that if they have small places dedicated to gods or goddesses that have an Authority over a type of magic, they will become more proficient in that type of magic.}

 

‘I assume that it doesn’t work like that.’

 

{It doesn’t, they just think it does.}

 

‘Why doesn’t someone just send an oracle and tell them they’re wasting their time?’

 

{Because it’s entertaining.}

‘Seems a bit mean-spirited to me.’

 

{It’s only really funny after a few hundred years of hearing the ridiculous things people ask for.  There was one time someone prayed to me to get the ability to reduce the gravity on their body so that it looked like they lost weight.}

 

‘How dumb, just put in the work to do that yourself.’

 

{I agree.}

 

‘What happened after that?’

 

{Don’t know, I stopped paying attention to them after that.  It was around that time that a King of Fiends appeared and I had to make sure I wouldn’t have to step in to stop it.}

 

‘Come to think of it, what exactly are fiends in the first place?’

 

{A way for the world to cleanse miasma.  Fiends and their kings are the physical manifestation of miasma that condenses over several hundred years.}

 

‘So, they are less creatures and more a natural disaster?’

 

{I guess.}

 

‘Why would you or another god have to take care of it?’

 

{Before the people of this world were taught how to summon people to help take care of fiends, the gods had to descend to take care of them.  The problem with that is that we don’t really hold back.  The last god that had to step in to kill a King of Fiends is the reason for the Fiendlands existing.}

 

‘I see.’

 

We talked about several other things while I made my way over to the others.  When I found them, they were sitting at a table eating some lunch.  I walked over and joined them.

 

“Hey Luna, what took you so long to find us?” (Velvet)

 

“I went to check out the shrine that’s being built.” (Luna)

 

“What’s it like?” (Soleil)

 

“Really similar to home.  There are a few differences that I could see, but we would be able to go around it like we’ve lived there for years when it’s done.” (Luna)

 

“Hehe.  You’ll match then.” (Soleil)

 

“Yep.  Did the two of you find everything?” (Luna)

 

“We did.” (Velvet)

 

“Then we can go back when we’re done here.” (Soleil)

 

“Sounds good to me.” (Luna)

 

The two of them finished their lunch and we teleported back to the island.  We started to put the things that were bought where they needed to go when I remembered something.

 

“Gah!  I completely forgot!” (Luna)

 

“What’d you forget?” (Soleil)

 

“I meant to give Grey the ruins I’ve been picking up so that he can give them to Quetz.” (Luna)

 

“Can’t you just go and hand them over now?” (Velvet)

 

“No, he’s training Ophidia right now, and it would be embarrassing to go back when I told Ophidia to come back here when she is done.” (Luna)

 

{If you put them in a storage bag, you can drop them off here when you see me next, and I’ll deliver them to her.}

 

“Tamamo, you’re a genius!  Now I just need to make a bag big enough to hold all of them.” (Luna)

 

“There’s that much?” (Velvet)

 

“It’s a big island.  There was more than you think, and I haven’t even gone to collect everything below us yet.” (Luna)

 

“Was this place important?” (Soleil)

 

“Probably, but we would have to ask Ophidia for the details.” (Luna)

 

“You haven’t told us how long her training will take.” (Velvet)

 

“Two days.  Grey locked the both of them in a room that has some weird time stuff going on.” (Luna)

 

“Ok.  Then we have two days of doing whatever before we start moving again.” (Velvet)

 

“Yep, though it won’t take long to get where we’re going most likely.” (Luna)

 

“I can’t wait to see the sea.” (Soleil)

 

“I’m looking forward to it as well.” (Luna)
