The goddesses were wearing a grave look, so we decided to ask about this ‘Phinis’ person.
After we did, Igniver-sama started telling us the story about the events in the distant past with an inscrutable expression on her face but,
“…I see. So to summarize it, the five goddesses, including you two, were originally one in the form of Olgou-sama, and Phinis-sama, who is also a goddess of genesis and creator of the monsters, has somehow resurged…”
“Ahh, that’s right,” Igniver-sama nodded.
Uhh, sorry.
The amount of information was too much that I couldn’t fully digest it yet…
I mean, why did you even divide into five?
Thanks to you splitting up, we had to go out of our way to travel around the world to get your power. It was extremely tiresome and time-consuming, you know?
Well, there was no use bringing that up now.
“Tsk, it must be the doing of those saints. I don’t know what means they used, but looks like they’ve outsmarted Exa and the others.” Fluga-sama had a vexed look on her face. I also put on a worried look, but inwardly I couldn’t stop myself from grinning.
It was a given.
I mean, the Idiot Exa, who’d been ahead of me until now, finally hit a wall for the first time.
Hmm~, he’d been outsmarted?
Tut-tut, so useless.
That’s what you got for abandoning me.
I didn’t know who those saints-whatchamacallit were, but if I, the great Elma, was there, the matter would’ve been easily resolved; just like taking candy from a baby.
Ah~, what a shame~, asI was getting over the moon inwardly, the pig flattered me, “Mm, that’s so unfortunate. If Saintess-sama was there, at least the situation might have turned out differently…”
Mm-mhm♪.
Our pig was so smart♪.
Indeed, if I was there, the goddess’s resurgence would’ve been easily st—
Just then.
“—No, whether she was there or not wouldn’t make a difference.”
Eh, hey, what do you mean I wouldn’t make a difference!?
Those were big words coming from someone who got sent to another space as soon as the battle began!?
“I see… since Fluga-sama said so, it must be true…”
And don’t you just agree with her, you pig!?
It was plain to see you were sucking up to her!?
Try to hide your true intention a little, will you!?
As I was retorting inwardly after getting knocked down from heaven to hell in an instant, Kaya asked the goddess,
“U-uhh, what about Exa-sama and the others? Are they okay…?”
“Don’t worry. Looks like Phinis and the saints are having a conflict over something, and Exa and co are safe for now.”
“I see…” Kaya patted her chest, though worry still remained on her face.
Fluga-sama lightly clapped her back and said, “I told you not to worry, didn’t I? We will head there, too. We’re not gonna let those guys do as they please.”
……Mm?
‘We’…?
As I was blinking my eyes, Fluga-sama yelled, “Yosh!” to raise her fighting spirit and said, “Now, let’s go, Saintess and her comrade! We’re gonna fly there with my magic!”
“—!?”
“Ohh!”
Wait, huh!?
We were going too!?
Hang on, I hadn’t achieved results that I could brag to him about yet!?
“You must be itching to put your skills to use, Saintess-sama!”
