After watching the fireworks, the airspace above the Sanctuary returned to the blue skies, and all the events of the White God Festival came to an endā¦ā¦ Ahh, it seems like thereās aā¦ā¦ completion ceremony? Closing ceremony? Iām not really really sure, but it seems like something like that would occur, so Iāll meet up with everyone and watch it with them.
I had been in the Sanctuary for about two hours, and it was now 8:00 pmā¦ā¦ It was hard to tell because the sky was blue, but considering that everyone would be returning to various places after this, I suppose it was a good time to end the event.
After the closing ceremony, it looks like the stalls will be open for the rest of the day. However, the stores on the middle-level seem to be quite crowded with people buying souvenirs.
On the other hand, the lower-level, where the stalls werenāt unique to the God Realm and were mainly made up of regular stalls, seems to be a bit empty, so I suppose I might want to buy something light to eat on the way home.
While I had such a thought in mind, I met up with everyone at the middle-level. Thanks to the Detection Magic in Kuroās necklace, I didnāt get lost and was able to meet up with the others right away.
It seems like Chronois-san is talking to the attendees on behalf of the Supreme Gods. After this, the Six Kings and the Human Realmās rulers will give a few words, and then the festival will be over.
Nevertheless, even though there must have been a lot of things that had happened, it felt like it all happened in the blink of an eye. I guess thatās just how much fun it was.
In the future, it seems like the White God Festival will continue to be held, except for the cities where the Festival of Heroes were held, so I look forward to participating in the next one.
[ā¦ā¦By the way, Luna-san.]
[Doesnāt Lilia-san look rather tired?]
[Ahh, itās because sheās been talking to a lot of Gods. You see, since Milady had received the blessing of a Supreme God, it seems that many of them wanted to say their greetings. And with Miladyās personality, she shriveled back and became tired.]
Well, thinking about it again, Lilia-san is also a considerably great person, and I think sheās quite famous, so it wouldnāt be surprising that people would want to talk to her.
Itās just, if that were the case, thereās one thing Iād like to askā¦ā¦
[Looking at how tired Lilia-san is, Iām guessing that a lot of Gods swarmed towards herā¦ā¦ but why so sudden?]
[When we encountered God of Earth-sama, Sky-sama mentioned how the Supreme Gods had been instructed to refrain from greeting Miyama-sama so as not to cause you too much trouble. Howeverā¦ā¦ their order only involved Miyama-sama, and Milady wasnāt exactly included in that order.]
[That is, how should I say thisā¦ā¦]
[Itās just a guess, but Miyama-samaās presence was so great that the Supreme Gods may have forgotten about Milady. Only when a good number of Gods had finished their greetings did the Goddess of Time-sama finally arrive and settled the situationā¦ā¦]
I see, their attention was turned towards me, who had received Shiro-sanās blessing, that they took firm measures regarding meā¦ā¦ but as for Lilia-san, they may have just forgotten about her.
Indeed, even Lilia-san herself seemed to have forgotten the impact of her position as the recipient of a Supreme Godās True Blessing, as she had asked why when she was treated as a VIPā¦ā¦ Perhaps, Chronois-san herself also just realized what was going on and came out in a hurry to settle the situation.
[ā¦ā¦Is this, in some way, my fault too?]
[Itās hard to judge, but Iām sure Miyama-sama had been acting as some sort of bulwark while you were with us. Well, you donāt have to worry about it. Milady is a noble, so making connections is part of her job. If the God Realm is to become more involved with the Human Realm and the Demon Realm in the future, her greeting them will eventually happen sooner or later.]
I thought that I had troubled Lilia-san again, but Lilia-san told me that I didnāt need to worry about this at all.
[In the first place, itās simply because there are so many High-ranking Gods that she got that tired, but in the future, this would only be advantageous for Milady. She would be able to have strong connections with the God Realm after allā¦ā¦ Well, Iām sure her stomach hurts that her already strong authority has grown even stronger, but her stomach getting hurt isnāt really anything new, so thereās no need for Miyama-sama to worry about it at all.]
[ā¦ā¦Luna-san is surprisingly kind in these situations huh.]
[Thatās strange. Those words were supposed to be more of a compliment, but why do I kinda feel like youāre insulting me?]
Luna-san is quite perceptive to the subtleties of other peopleās emotions, and she often makes follow ups in these situations. This time, too, she made a follow up in a matter-of-fact tone so that I wouldnāt feel bothered, and she was indeed feeling very considerate.
I think sheās actually a pretty caring person, and Iām grateful for everything Iāve doneā¦ā¦ Well, even if I tell her this, I think sheāll try to deny it, and she may even gloss it over or run awayā¦ā¦ I suppose sheās also like Alice in those areas too.
[Speaking of which, Yuzuki-sama had received Sky-samaās blessing, you know?]
[Eh? Is that so? Hina-chan certainly was quite attached to Sky-san.]
[When I think about it, Kusunoki-sama received the Blessings of God of Earth-sama, and Yuzuki-sama received the Blessings of God of Sky-samaā¦ā¦ Theyāve become quite amazing, havenāt they? Receiving the Blessings of High-ranking Gods, I feel envious of them.]
[ā¦ā¦Should I ask someone for you?]
[Iād like you to excuse me from drinking stomach medicine, so Iāll pass.]
ā¦ā¦It was a response that would have made me speechlessā¦ā¦ but since thereās the precedent, Lilia-san, itās difficult for me to retort back.
