Chapter 214: Wouldn't that mean I Achieved Enlightenment?
The Sanctuary…… The most sacred place in the God Realm.
It is a small floating island that exists in the highest position in the God Realm, and even the Supreme Gods can’t enter without Shiro-san’s permission.
The Sanctuary where I was brought by Chronois-san, Fate-san, and Life-san was too beautiful and divine.
The balance between the growing flowers, the wind, and the white stones here and there…… it feels so exquisite that it even feels like a serious crime to destroy this scenery.
[……It’s a beautiful place.]
[Of course. This is Shallow Vernal-sama’s home…… A place where most creatures in this world can not even hope to see.]
[The plants here have been influenced to some extent by Shallow Vernal-sama’s magic power. Hence, they keep the landscape divine, beautiful and untainted.]
As we slowly walked, Chronois-san and Life-san briefly explained to me about some stuff when I reflexively expressed my awe.
They say that this Sanctuary is beautiful because of the presence of the Absolute Being, Shiro-san……
The atmosphere of the Sanctuary pushed me to move forward with a somewhat serious atmosphere…… through a place that could be described as a floating garden. I could see the posterior figure of the Goddess with glittering silver-white hair, in a position where the God Realm could be seen in full view.
It isn’t something like in those paintings anymore, as her beauty is so breathtaking to behold.
As I approached, feeling somewhat nervous, Shiro-san slowly looked back at me.
[Hello, Kaito-san.]
[Hello, Shiro-san. Thank you for having me here today.]
[No…… The God of Kaito-san’s world is quite the stubborn one, isn’t she?]
[……Unnn?]
Whoa there, it sounds like she started saying something incomprehensible just as we met…… The God of my world? Stubborn? I had been asking this multiple times, but what the heck is this person talking about?
Shiro-san, who naturally read my doubts, nodded once with a blank expression on her face.
[I guess it’s natural that you would ask that…… Well then, shall we move on?]
[………………]
Unnn. I knew it…… I should have known, right? She really won’t answer my question huh!?
[At this point, it isn’t really anything related to Kaito-san.]
[Does that mean it will be related to me later?]
[Yes.]
[Then, I would really be curious.]
[I’ll tell you when the time is right.]
[……Huhh… I understand.]
I’m still not sure about what Shiro-san mentioned before, but well, it sounds like she’ll eventually tell me about it…… so there shouldn’t be any problem…… right?
Anyway, I didn’t think Shiro-san would answer me even if I asked anymore, so I nodded and moved on with the three Supreme Gods, following Shiro-san……
Towards where we’re going, it’s probably uncouth to question it. She did say she built an onsen, so perhaps……
[……Shiro-san.]
[What is it?]
[It’s just that I have lots of things that I really want to tsukkomi now…… But, first. What kind of tree are those over there?]
[They’re “maple” and “ginkgo” trees.]
[………………….]
The place where Shiro-san led me to is already a stunning onsen, just as she said she would make.
The bathtub made of rocks lined up in a perfect balance, and the white, murky onsens gushing out from its source…… And then, there’s also the maple and ginkgo trees that have turned beautifully red……
As far as I know though, there are no maple or ginkgo trees in this world. There may be similar plants, but when I asked Shiro-san about it, she confirmed it herself, that they were maple and ginkgo trees.
[……Could it be… You created them from reading my memory?]
[Yes.]
[…..What’s that thing over there that looks like a “Shishi-odoshi”?]
[It’s a Shishi-odoshi.]
[……………..]
Click to open image >> (T/N: I don’t think it would be easy to picture it if I were to just say that it’s Shishi-odoshi / beast-scarer, so here’s the picture of it.)
She even perfectly prepared a Shishi-odoshi… Even Chronois-san, who is behind me, is struggling to hold back a headache.
[……Then, that thing over there that looks like an Onsen Inn?]
[It’s an Onsen Inn. There’s also a ping-pong table inside.]
[……And you…… created them too?]
[Yes.]
As I thought, this person’s really absurd!? Didn’t you just completely turn this place to Japan!? You even stuck to details and made a ping-pong table…… I don’t know if I should say it’s to be expected from Shiro-san……
[I’m glad for the compliment.]
[……I’ m astounded.]
As I was stunned by Shiro-san, doing as she pleased again, Fate-san, who had been silent until now, approached Shiro-san while slightly raising her hand.
[Shallow Vernal-sama! May I ask you something?]
[You have permission to speak.]
[Hahh! What is Shallow Vernal-sama going to do with this rocky bathtub? I would be grateful if you could share it with me who lacks wisdom.]
……Fate-san really changes in front of Shiro-san and seems to be a completely different person, speaking in a serious, or rather, a really lively manner.
When she heard Fate-san’s words, she nodded once and spoke to them in her voice that held no intonation.
[I will be mixed bathing with Kaito-san. The God of Time and Space will also be joining us.]
[Eh? Chronois-san too?]
[…………………]
I had heard from Shiro-san beforehand that I was going to be bathing with her…… and although I completely didn’t agree, I had given up on the idea of refusing her.
However, it was the first time I had heard that Chronois-san would be joining us, and when I quickly looked back at her…… Chronois-san was staring into the void, with an expression that looks like she had given up on everything.
[……Shallow Vernal-sama’s will take precedence over everything else.]
[……………………..]
She’s too pitiable…… Honestly, even with just Shiro-san alone, I’m already expecting to be forced to fight an extreme battle, but if the slender beauty, Chronois-san, were to join us…… To be honest, I was filled with thoughts of evading this situation, but if Chronois-san somehow agrees to it, then it would be difficult for me to do that.
[I see, I understand. Shallow Vernal-sama…… if you were to allow me to, would you please allow me to join you!?]
[Wait…… Fate-san?]
[I can’t pass up this opportunity! Kai-chan, I’ll remind you again that I’m fine even if you feel them!]
[……No, that’s not what I’m talking about……]
Fate-san, who was down on one knee in front of Shiro-san, started saying she wants to go in too.
Stop that…… No, seriously, you’re going to bring my reasoning to danger…… Fate-san is also a very cute person, but she’s terrifying since she can be forceful sometimes.
[I allow you to bathe with us.]
[Shiro-san!?]
[Hahh! I’m happy and grateful for your permission!]
However, as expected of the airhead Goddess, she doesn’t seem to understand about my inner conflicts and just gives Fate-san permission to take a bath with us.
Chronois-san also seemed to have been listening to their conversation, as she spoke to Fate-san with a shocked look on her face.
[Wha!? God of Fate!?]
[Shallow Vernal-sama, if you were to allow it, I would also like to ask the same thing as God of Fate and request your permission to take a bath with you……]
[God of Life!?]
[I give you my permission.]
[Thank you very much.]
Eh? W- Wait a moment there? What the heck is going on here? Why the heck is Life-san going with us too?
I can still understand if it was Fate-san.. That person is always trying to make something established between us…… she would even try to reach out her hands at every opportunity she gets, but why is it that even Life-san……
[God of Fate! God of Life! A- Are you two i- insane? Do both of you have no sense of shame!!!?]
[Unnn? Of course I have. But Kai-chan is my future husband after all, so it’s totally OK for me to be seen by Kai-chan.]
[My role as the Supreme God is to make sure that Shallow Vernal-sama and Miyama-san can enjoy their baths. Then, it is reasonable to bathe with them so that I can be close to them and assist them when needed.]
[……Wha…… you……]
Seeing Fate-san and Life-san replying to her as if what they did was natural, Chronois-san twitched, looking stunned.
How should I say this… Chronois-san really is too pitiful…… However, it isn’t like I can say that since I’m not a stranger to this matter either.
To have a mixed bath along with the beautiful Supreme Gods, along with Shiro-san, who can be said to be the symbol of beauty herself…… I feel like my reasoning is already on its knees before the fight even starts.
[This is what they called “Lucky Pervert”, right?]
[This isn’t “Lucky” at all if you made the situation yourself, you know!?]
[Is that so?]
[Why!? are you tilting your head!? Shiro-saaaaaannnnn!!!?]
Dear Mom, Dad——- I’m going to a mixed bathing with others for the third time. Normally, the more often you experience something, the more you get used to such a situation. However, I don’t think I’ll ever get used to this, and heck, I’m already starting to get dizzy before it even starts…… I mean, if I was able to endure this event——- wouldn’t that I mean I achieved enlightenment?
Mixed bathing with the God of Creation + The Supreme Gods.
Shiro…… Big Breasts.
Fate…… Big-breasted Loli.
Life…… One of the people who got the biggest breasts in this novel.
Chronois…… The Great Wall of Chronois☆
I wonder what would happen to Chronois tomorrow!?
