After receiving the VIP card from Fate-san, we moved to the middle-level, which was reasonably flourishing with people, but compared to the lower-level, it was still rather uncrowded, as it seems like this place would be easy to navigate.
And upon our arrival, standing in front of us was a woman…… who was probably the God of Sky-san.
She has sky blue semi-short hair, eyes that seem to be the same color, and a slender figure that should be around 160cm tall?
(Note: just barely 5’3″)
She’s wearing what seems to be an ethnic outfit……How should I say this…… The patterns of her trousers kinda reminds me of Saudi Arabia or something Middle-Eastern, while her thin outer garment looked rather peculiar.
Upon seeing us, the God of Sky-san gave us a relieved smile and spoke.
[Welco-]
[ [ Esteemed Sister Tre!!! ] ]
[——me…… to……]
However, her statement was interrupted by a voice that intruded at an exquisite time.
[Ah, Cento and Cien, we’ve finally met up.]
[That’s our line!]
[Even though we told you in advance, how in the world did you get separated from us so quickly!!!?]
[……………………]
Cento-san and Cien-san, who had rushed over to us, started a conversation with Tre-san, and the God of Sky-san, who had completely missed the opportunity to talk to us, had an indescribable expression on her face…… and quickly averting her gaze away, she returned to her original position and started checking what seemed to be a notepad in her hand.
She failed to join the conversation and was pushed aside, which should be very embarrassing for her. The slight blush on God of Sky-san’s cheeks as she looked at her notepad and averted her gaze is most probably not my imagination.
Well, Cento-san and Cien-san didn’t have any bad intentions and I’m sure their actions were just because they’re that worried about Tre-san…… I can only think of this as them having bad timing.
As I had such a thing in mind, I watched the conversation between Cento-san, Cien-san and Tre-san for a while, and it seemed that their conversation had come to an end.
As if the God of Sky-san had also noticed this, she quickly put away her notepad and approached us, looking like she wanted to make a fresh start.
[Once again, wel———]
[Oiiii, Kai-chan! Sorry, I forgot to tell you something.]
[…………………]
Her words interrupted again, her mouth was left hanging open for a bit before she quickly looked away again.
[……A- Alriiiiiight, let’s do my best! U- Unnn, I really need the fighting spirit to do this…… It’s an important job. I- I- I- I think I should be louder and more enthusiastic…… Alriiiiiight, let’s do my best~~! Ohhh!]
Geez, God of Sky-san looked so pitiful that I can’t even look at her! She must have been insanely embarrassed…… With her face blushing red and tears in her eyes, she was making excuses like “I wasn’t greeting them yet earlier, I was still trying to get myself fired up”, before she looked blankly to the sky.
Moreover, the one who interrupted her this time was Fate-san, someone who could be considered as her superior, so she had no way to complain.
Feeling indescribably uncomfortable, I turned to face Fate-san, who came flying towards me.
[So, Fate-san…… The thing you forgot to tell me?]
[Kai-chan is going to visit Shallow Vernal-sama at 6 pm, right? Before that though, God of Space and Time and the others apparently have something they wanted to give you, so they’re asking you to come to the upper-level about 15 minutes before you meet Shallow Vernal-sama.]
[Doesn’t it matter where in the upper-level?]
[Unnn, you’ll know when you get there.]
[I understand. I’ll be there around that time.]
[Alrighty~~ Well then, I’ll go back~~]
Hearing what Fate-san forgot to tell me, I thought I could finally talk to God of Sky-san, so I turned to her…… And seemingly having recovered while I was talking with Fate-san, God of Sky-san smiled for the third time.
[Erhem, we———]
[Ohh, there you are! Oiiiiii! Kaito, young Lilia!]
[Her Majesty Laguna?]
[…………………]
Thereupon, she was interrupted for the third time. This time, it was Laguna-san who appeared, and although Lilia-san and the others tilted their necks at her unexpected appearance, I was more concerned about God of Sky-san.
[……I’m just…… Anyway, I’m just……]
G- God of Sky-saaaaaaaaan!? She’s crying! Heck, holding her knees in her embrace, she even started doodling on the ground!
How should I say this…… She has really bad timing. Moreover, the person who appeared this time was one of Human Realm’s rulers, and from her standpoint, she isn’t someone that she could just push off.
……For the time being, let’s hear what Laguna-san has to say first.
[Laguna-san, what are you doing here?]
[No, I heard from the hummingbird Hikari sent me that Fors was taken care of by you guys. Well, I’m sorry about that. I didn’t mean to leave her unattended, but some trouble occurred earlier. I’m sorry for the trouble.]
[Ahh, no, don’t worry about it.]
[I’ll be sure to thank you again later…… Ahh, I’m rather busy and don’t have much time, so my apologies for hurriedly leaving, but I’ll take my leave here.]
[Ah, yes. Good work over there.]
It seemed that she had really only come to apologize regarding that matter with Fors-san, and after briefly telling me this, Laguna-san lightly waved her hand before leaving.
No, well, how should I say this…… What should I do with the mood around us?
It wasn’t really anyone fault. God of Sky-san was still some distance away from us, and the people who interrupted her probably just didn’t notice her.
I’ve heard that people don’t often see the High-ranking Gods themselves, so other than Fate-san, I don’t think any of them realized that she’s God of Sky-san.
Well, her timing really is just bad…… That’s all there is to it but……
[……I’m just…… I’m just……]
But after experiencing the shame play of being interrupted and brushed aside three times, it seems like God of Sky-san’s mental health had received a severe damage…… and it’s very hard to figure out how to back her up.
