The day before the wedding came and went without any progress. I went to bed, woke up, and it was already the wedding day.
Â
Morning and evening prayers did not bring any progress, so I added day and night prayers, but still, there was no sign that the power of the blessings had increased.
Â
It reminded me of the time when Lucaria and Hel withered the great tree that never bloomed. The two of them seemed to have mastered the use of their blessings at that time, and it was very cool.
Â
(If only I could do thatâŠâŠ.)
Â
âWhy donât I talk to Hel about how to use the power of the blessing?â
Â
Somehow, I had assumed that I was not supposed to ask Hel for help, the object of my rescue, but that was not the case.
I pulled myself out of bed and looked at the clock, it was a little before twelve in the evening, and everyone was probably asleep, since the temple had an early bedtime.
âBut if I miss it now, itâll be even more difficultâŠ.., right?â
Â
After the wedding, we were supposed to go on our honeymoon the next day. The plan was to visit some scenic spots and go to a hot spring resort.
When she returned, she would have a lot of work to do as the wife of Lucaria, and Selesina herself would be given the position of the Blessing Priestess.
Â
In other words, she would have no free time at all.
There is even a possibility that her life will become boring, just doing the work she is given.
Â
âYou canât do that!â
Â
âWhat?â
Â
Suddenly, a voice echoed in Selesinaâs head.
It was the same voice of the goddess Norn that she had heard before.
Â
âYouâre going to live a monotonous life even though Iâm giving you blessings? I canât allow you to do such a boring thing!â
âNo, even if you say itâs unforgivableâŠâŠâ
Â
Iâve been praying so hard for you and you havenât given me a single answer, but now that you know itâs going to be a boring routine, youâre going to come outâŠâŠ.
Â
(Oh, by the way, you seemed to want to hear about my past life.)
Â
âOh yeah, Iâd like to!â
Â
âHey, donât read my mind!!â[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the âNovel Multiverse dot comâ website @ novelmultiverse.com]
Â
I canât help but shout.
This means that the voice of your heart is being heardâŠâŠ.! When Selesina protests, her face reddening, the goddess Norn chuckles, âThatâs fine.â
Â
âIâm sure youâll agree with me. Donât you think you should be a little more self-centered?â
âWhatâŠâŠ?â
âItâs not your aesthetic to kill your own heart and spend your days being boring.â
ââŠâŠâŠâŠâ
Â
The goddess Norn made Selesina want to hold her head. She hadnât expected her to be such a free goddess.
Â
(Isnât there more of a sense of solemnity to it?)
âYouâre an impolite girl, you know that?â
âOh, Iâm sorry!â
Â
She wants to shout at her not to read her mind, but it seems useless to say, so Selesina gives up early. You canât win against a goddess, you know.
Â
âIn the meantime, yes,âŠâŠ I will lend you my power if you are honest.â
âWhat?â
âBecause if I donât, youâre going to spend your days like youâre dead.â
ââŠâŠâŠâŠâ
Â
Isnât the goddess Norn the unreserved one? However, I guess I canât blame her for thinking that.
Â
âItâs not that simple for humans.â
Â
What would happen if I were honest with myself?
The Rinklats, as well as the Kingdom of Alvarado and of Soratek, would be in trouble. It would also ruin the reputation of the head of the temple, Lucaria.
Â
There are many things depending on each of my actions.
Â
ââŠâŠHumans are so scared. I can feel the fear of death deep inside you.â
âThatâsâŠâŠ!â
Â
Itâs the death that comes at the end of the game.
If Iâm being honest, there are so many differences between games nowadays.Â
So there is a good chance that the scenario will not be the same as in the other games.
Â
But itâs not zero percent.
Â
Maybe itâs almost a hundred percent, or maybe itâs less than one percent, due to compulsion.
But Selesina doesnât know that.
Â
The goddess Norn chuckles, âYou idiot,â probably because Selesina has gone silent.
Â
âWhat do you have to be afraid of? Selesina, you have the strongest blessing Iâve ever given you.â
â-âŠâŠ!â
Â
The words of the goddess Norn made Selesina gasp. Even if you say so, I canât master the power of the Goddess Nornâs blessing by myself.
Â
âGoddess Norn, hey!!!â
Â
But even though she called out, there was no further reply.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the âNovel Multiverse dot comâ website @ novelmultiverse.com]
