《Saintess Party》 Elma’s POV 19: What Are You Doiiiiiiiiiiiing!?
After somehow managing to break through the barrier with the pig’s rolling attack, we came face to face with the goddess of wind—Turbo-sama.
Of course, from her perspective, we who passed through her barrier out of the blue must seemed suspicious, so I couldn’t help but stiffen in wariness, the atmosphere felt like it’d be the end of me if I took even one more step forward.
Hence, I pulled out my Saintess Move which I had trained for such occasions; I reverently dropped on one knee and introduced myself with a most humble expression, “I beg your forgiveness for making a ruckus. I’m Saintess Elma. Possessor of the 《Sword Saint》 skill. And this one over here is my follower who is called pi—I mean, Porco.”
I also introduced Porco whose eyes were still spinning round and round.
Or rather, that was close.
I almost called the pig pig.
“So, Saintess and her follower, what business do you have with me? Stepping into my territory without notice is a very insolent act.” Turbo-sama glared at me while gesturing with her hand so as to have the children step back.
I inwardly got a cold sweat.
W-what’s with this goddess!?
She is super scary, so different from Terra-sama!?
Rather, it wasn’t me who stepped into her territory without notice, it was this pig!?
Yet, why is she directing her anger at me!?
Ahh mou, get up already and apologize, you pig!?
I was inwardly boiling with the desire to give the pig a double slap, but I bowed my head as calmly as I possibly could. “…I deeply apologize. As we were thinking of a way to meet Turbo-sama outside the barrier, we inadvertently stumbled upon the loophole. We were unable to hold ourselves, so…”
“Fumu, well fine. Anyhow, you must’ve been told by Terra to come find me as well, didn’t you? I sense Terra’s power coming from you.”
Please don’t tell me that it was the 《Complete Conception》.
I didn’t want to remember it if at all possible.
“Yes, it is as you say. Hearing that Exa-sama had led the other saintesses over here, I immediately embarked on this journey to catch up to him so that I could be of help to him.”
Well, the truth was, it was more like, ‘Saintess Elma, journey to goddess!’ though!
My purpose behind this journey was to become a transcendental goddess and make Idiot Exa cried and regretted for having left me!
“Hou. Then, what do you need from me? As you can see, I’m very busy right now. I don’t have the spare time to waste on you.” Both of Turbo-sama’s hands were pulled to the right and left by the children as she said that.
Looked like she was very popular with the children but, were they hers or something?
Besides, she was surprisingly very humane, or to be exact, down-to-earth…
“C-can you perhaps make some time somehow?”
“I can’t. I have an important role to fulfill, that is to play with the children.”
“T-that’s…”
Kh, I’ve gotta think of something quick!?
Otherwise, we’re gonna be kicked out for real!?
Even though we’ve finally arrived here after all that troubles…! I bit my lips—at that time.
――Pu~~~~.
““……””
All of a sudden, a sound reverberated through the air, freezing the atmosphere.
Slightly trembling, I turned my eyes towards the pig, the source of the sound, with a shocked expression.
“Noo, I’m full, I can’t eat anymore~… munya munya.”
The pig hit pat his stomach with a pop, he seemed to have dozed off despite the situation we were in.
“……”
No, how the hell could you fall asleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep!?
Rather, of all times, just why did you fart noooooooooooooooooooow!?
Needless to be said, my face turned ghastly white.
