Chrisya-san started
saying something strange.
"I'm not sure if
it was really a monster or not... but it was with other Robs, so I guess it
was."
"Where was it? In
one of those so-called danger zones that you humans arbitrarily defined?"
"No, it was near
a regular town."
"What?"
Chrisya-san placed her
right hand on her chin with a serious expression.
"………"
"……?"
"Kushina, there's
something I need to tell you."
After pondering for a
while, Chrisya-san looked back at me with a serious expression. Or rather, she
just called me by my name.
"It's about the
[Primal Beast]."
"………Beast?"
I unintentionally
repeated what Chrisya-san had said, taken aback by the sudden change of topic.
"I mean, Primal,
huh───"
"It's written
differently from the [Soul-Bound God] I commanded you to write before."
"Oh, I see."
"That's right.
[Primal Beast]───the beast of the
beginning. A primordial creature that appeared in this world long before you
humans... or rather, even before we Gods appeared."
"Hee."
"The power of the
[Primal Beast] is exceptional. Some individuals are as powerful as us Gods. A
monstrous creature that defies common sense, beyond the level of existing
monsters───that's the [Primal
Beast]."
"───"
I was momentarily
speechless when I heard that.
A monster as powerful
as Chrisya-san... In my heart, I thought it would be interesting to meet one.
"Why are you
telling me this now?"
"───!"
I came to my senses
when I heard Chrisya-san's voice.
"Kushina, it's
because your current power───is on par with those [Primal Beasts]."
"………"
"Your current
body has reached the maximum strength that a human can achieve, or rather, any
living being. Haven't you felt it recently? ───That no matter how
much you die, you don't seem to get much stronger."
I think back to the
times I've died recently.
Now that she mentions
it... it's true.
"There's no
record of a human reaching the survival limit. In terms of physical level
alone... Kushina, it's no exaggeration to say that you have stepped into the
realm of the Gods."
Oh, it's rare for
Chrisya-san to praise me. ...Or did she?
"In other words,
killing someone like you───is a feat that only we Gods or Primal Beasts can perform. Existing
monsters or humans wouldn't stand a chance. ...Unless they have an absurdly
powerful ability like you."
"………Hee."
I look at my arm.
I'm that strong now.
Well, I have [Grit: Indomitable Spirit] and [Super Regeneration]... but I don't
have any offensive or defensive skills. Indeed, I thought I had gotten much
stronger, but I didn't know I was in such an invincible state.
Wait, but then───
"Did you finally
understand? Yes, the existence that killed you so many times, despite you being
such an absurd existence. There's no way that's a normal creature."
"In other words,
as Chrisya-san mentioned earlier───"
"Yes. It's either
a Primal Beast or a God."
Chrisya-san and I
looked at each other.
"But Primal
Beasts have restrictions. Mother───the Goddess of Fertility, limited the range of action of Primal Beasts
with excessive power so that you humans could live properly. Therefore, it is
almost impossible for a Primal Beast to appear in the human living area."
"Then, that means───"
"Yes. By
elimination, it means that───"
"You could call
him a God."
""───!!""
Suddenly, a familiar
voice came from behind me.
□□□
I turned around.
Standing there was───
"It's been a
while, Kushina. Although, it's only been a few days on this side."
Kakyouin Runa, a girl
who had reincarnated from the same world and the same country as me───and who had lived with
me until a few days ago. She was standing behind me.
"You... how did
you get in here?"
Chrisya-san pierced
Runa with a gaze filled with anger.
"Fufufu, don't
look at me like that, Chrisya. I'm a girl too, you know?"
"───!! Why do you know my
name...?"
"I know
everything. From five hundred years ago, in fact."
"………What?"
It's strange. Why is
Kakyouin-san talking as if she knows about Chrisya-san? And five hundred years
ago? Her way of speaking is also strange... I wonder what's wrong with her?
"Good grief...
you're still the same as ever, Chrisya. You have a good memory but you're too
headstrong and inflexible. That's why Mother worries about you the most,
right?"
"───!!!!"
Chrisya-san took a
step back as if she was shocked by Kakyouin-san's words.
"That way of
speaking... Mother...? That's... that's..."
"Well───since we haven't seen
each other in a long time, and it seems like you're confused, let me introduce
myself."
Kakyoin-san pinched
the hem of her skirt with her left hand and brought her right hand to her chest
as she bowed.
"My name is
Eletia. I am the first-generation [Goddess of Soul Manifestation] who ascended
on my own without being enshrined by anyone. Or you could also call me───Kakyouin Runa."
She smiled as she
bowed.
Chrisya-san took a
step back again, trembling.
"Chrisya-san?"
"I-It can't be...
it's impossible... Eletia? That's... that's───Eletia is! Already!
She's supposed to be dead!!!!"
Such an unbelievable
word echoed through the room.
