Chapter 317 - Her Love is Too Heavy
While Alice and I are leisurely tending the store, a familiar angel…… Eden-san suddenly appears.
Seeing her appearance, Alice raised her vigilance and spoke.
[……I don’t know which world you’re God of, but what in the world are you doing here……]
[……She’s a God…… from another world?]
[Yes, her power is clearly on par with Kuro-san and Shallow Vernal-sama. It’s impossible for me not to know of a being with such a ridiculous amount of power…… then, it’s reasonable to assume that she came from another world.]
[Positive.]
Alice mentioned that Eden-san is a god from some other world, and Eden-san nodded in agreement.
A god with the power comparable to Shiro-san…… Is she the pinnacle of some other world? If that were the case, it is as Alice asked, why is such a being trying to make contact with us?
As I was thinking about that, my eyes met with Eden-san…… and for some reason, Eden-san looked at me with kind eyes.
[……You mentioned that you wanted to interact before, didn’t you? What is it this time?]
[…………………]
However, when Alice spoke to her, Eden-san’s expression turned blank and she didn’t answer Alice’s question.
Feeling an uncomfortable tension, I timidly tried to speak to Eden-san.
[…..Ummm, do you need something from me again?]
[Positive, I, You, Converse, Hope. Body, Adjust, Complete, Preference, Included.]
[Why do you ignore me and yet, immediately reply to Kaito-san’s question…… Or rather, you were able to speak normally like before, right? Speaking like that is difficult to understand.]
[………………..]
[T- This……]
The difference between her response between me and Alice is too obvious, and seeing out, Alice has a stiff smile on her face.
[……Errr, I’d also like to ask you that too. I’d appreciate it if you could speak normally……]
[I understand.]
[……Kaito-san, is it fine if I punch her at least once……?]
[Silence, I recognize that you held some strength. However, you aren’t my child. Thus, I see no reason to speak to you.]
[……Alright, you want to fight? Let’s go fight then! I’ll crush you where you stand!]
[A- Alice. Calm down……]
Alice seemed unusually irritated by Eden-san’s response and really looks like she was about to hit her.
But more than that, I’m more concerned about what Eden-san said just now.
[……U- Ummm, Eden-san. Can I ask you a question?]
[But of course. My beloved child, I’ll be happy to answer any questions you may have.]
[H- Huh…… Errr, what do you mean when you’re calling me your child?]
[You were born in “the world I made”. Thus, you are my child.]
[Eh? Eeeehhhh!?]
W- Wait a moment…… I was born in the world created by Eden-san? Then, that means Eden-san is……
[I see, you’re the God of Kaito-san’s world……]
[That’s right, but I’m having a conversation with my child now. Don’t interrupt us.]
[……Even if I’m called the Merciful Alice-chan, I still get pissed off. Or rather, you’re definitely picking a fight with me, aren’t you!?]
I’ve never heard of anyone calling you the Merciful Alice-chan, but since it really looks like it will develop into a battle like before, I decided to calm Alice down and just have a conversation with Eden-san myself.
[I see, so what was Eden-san doing here?]
[I have come to see you, my beloved child.]
I wonder why? I feel some kind of chill running down my back…… In her eyes, which should have been richly-colored, there appears to be some kind of muddy black color in it…… Eh? Why?
[C- Come to see me…… W- Why?]
[That’s because you are the one I’ve been seeking.]
[…..And that means?]
I have been waiting all these times. My child, who is born in the world that I made, to stand against me. Yes, that’s right…… it was you. You have stood against me before…… Possessing very brave and chivalrous eyes…… Ahhh, how terrific. If it’s just beings who would do anything I will, I can create as much as I want. However, I want to give my affection to those who oppose me. Yes, that’s right. You are my ideal, my supreme. My beloved child…… Aahhh, thank you. For this miracle that I have met you…… Please show your face to me, no, to “mother” more often. Such powerful and radiant eyes, how beautiful. Ahh, you don’t have to be afraid. I’ll spoil you prodigally. Let’s whisper words of love so much that it burns the ground. However, how could my beloved child bear to breathe the air of this world…… Ah, this is no good, this is really no good. Breathing the same air as these riffraff doesn’t suit you. “Let’s make air” that only exists for you. Yes, that’s good. Let’s create an air that only you can breathe, an air that exists only for you. Rest assured, my beloved child. I’ve properly gone back to our world once and memorized “every single record”. Yes, I understand my beloved child the most. I know how much you weighed when you were born, what kind of food you ate, how many times you breathed……. I know everything. I have also “adjusted my body” to fit you. I’ve “remade everything from scratch”, all according to fit your preference, to what you find most comfortable.]
S- Scarrrryyyyyy!? What the heck is with her, she’s giving me fear more than ever before!? I didn’t even say anything, but she just talked on and on about it…… And somehow, aren’t the highlights in her eyes disappearing!?
[……The God of Kaito-san’s world feels like she has a screw loose, doesn’t she? The light completely disappeared in her eyes, you know……]
[I didn’t want to know about this. That the truth was that she was like this……]
If it’s possible, I would like to not know that the God of my world was a yandere and her eyes were locked onto me. I really want to run away right now.
Somehow, while she’s speaking like a broken radio, there was something dark behind her eyes…… She’s seriously scary.
As expected, even Alice was drawn away from her, as the anger she had was pulled away and a complicated expression appeared on her face.
[……Ahh, yes, that’s right. I know my child the most. I love my child the most. Ahh, then, I should rather “make a world” just for you. Yes, that’s better. Let’s create beings who only affirm to your will. Let’s provide you with all the items suitable for you. In that world, I’ll love you prodigally. Yes, all for the sake of my child…… Let’s quickly……]
[Hmmm!?]
In front of Eden-san, who was saying stuff that is growing even more frightening, Kuro suddenly appeared…… and without saying anything, sent Eden-san flying.
Eden-san was sucked into a black vortex and disappeared but…… I don’t know if I should say that it’s to be expected of her or not, as Eden-san returned back as if nothing happened.
[……What are you doing? God’s half-body. I was busy thinking about the bright future with my child. I will not allow you to interfere.]
[That should be my line! You suddenly returned back to your world, and just when I thought you went back for good, you’re saying stupid stuff here…… I told you that I will eliminate you if you trouble Kaito-kun, didn’t I!?]
[I’m not troubling him though? For my child, receiving my love is his happiness.]
[……No, you’re mistaken.]
It sounds like I was being arbitrarily incorporated in a frightening happiness, so I immediately denied it.
I was expecting that she would be angry with my coldhearted denial but…… for some reason, Eden-san’s eyes lit up.
[Aahhh, aahhh…… I have been opposed again…… How resolute of my child. Aahhh, as I thought, you really are the supreme being!]
[……………….]
Ahh, this god’s no good, she’s out of control……
[What the heck are you even talking about…… Anyway, try to scare Kaito-san any more than this…… I’ll beat you up!]
[……If you can even do it, I’d like to see you try.]
[……………….]
[……………….]
Even when Kuro was completely angry, Eden-san, who didn’t hesitate to pick a fight with her, was really amazing…… But more than that, the situation looks bad.
I’m getting very anxious about what’s about to happen now.
[……Kaito-san, want to drink some tea?]
[……Please give me an astringent one.]
While watching Kuro and Eden-san scatter sparks all around the place, I drink the tea Alice brewed for me with an exhausted look on my face…… Ah, the steam is permeating into my eyes…… I’m tearing up now.
Dear Mom, Dad——— What a surprise, Eden-san apparently was the God of my world, but she’s one of the most prominent and intense among the beings I’ve ever met. And such a being had her eyes locked on to me. How should I say this——— Her love is too heavy.
