Seeing Olivia-san being shaken, I spoke to her in as calm of a voice as I could.
[First of all, although Shiro-san had given roles to the Gods and Olivia-san, she didnāt say that you should do this or that, nor do I think thatās what she wished. Putting aside if itās something you yourself want, Olivia-san, I think the way you said it earlier, about how thatās Shiro-sanās will is wrong.]
[Shiro-san said that she didnāt make it impossible for Gods to grow. She was even delighted with the growth of Fate-sanā¦ā¦ the God of Fateā¦ā¦ and she wished for the other Gods to grow too. Iām sure it would be the same case for you, Olivia-san.]
This is something Iām sure of. Shiro-san is happy and desires the growth of the Gods. Even the recent White God Festivalā¦ā¦ held with the Supreme Gods Chronois-san and Life-san at the center, would be another step in growth for the Gods.
In fact, that festival seems to have increased the relationship between the Gods and the rest of the world, and Sky-san and the others even mentioned how it was a good opportunity for the Gods to change their perceptions.
If she were to say that Shiro-san wanted Olivia-san to stay in the Cathedral unless necessary and just continue praying, I can assure her that that wasnāt the case.
[ā¦ā¦Have Iā¦ā¦ been mistaken?]
[I wouldnāt go as far as to say youāre mistaken. However, I think you may have been misunderstanding her a little bitā¦ā¦ but itās never too late to do otherwise. Even now, you can start trying to correct your faults as much as you can.]
After I had told her that much, I suddenly thought of something. There was a way to kill two birds with one stone in this situation, one that is beneficial to both me and Olivia-san.
[Thatās right! If Iām not mistaken, Olivia-san, youāve cleared your schedule for the rest of the day, right?]
[In that case, how about you and I go sightseeing in the Friendship City?]
As if she hadnāt expected what I had just said, Olivia-san looked shocked.
[Olivia-san, youāve almost never been to any other places except the Central Plaza when the Festival of Heroes is held, right?]
[Yesā¦ā¦ but as the representative of the city, I do have a certain amount of information about the different divisions and shops.]
[I see, but in that caseā¦ā¦ you probably just āknowā about it. Even if you know about it as knowledge, I think itās very different to actually visit a place and see and experience it with your own eyes.]
[ā¦ā¦Justā¦ā¦ knowing.]
[I donāt know if that will certainly give you an impetus for what to do in the future, but youāll definitely find something newā¦ā¦ So, how about it?]
It was an idea I only suddenly thought of, but I didnāt think it was a bad one. As for me, I can enjoy sightseeing in the Friendship City and thereās a possibility that I could get closer to Olivia-san. This may be an opportunity for Olivia-san to change.
After hearing my words, Olivia-san closed her eyes and fell silent for a moment, before opening them again.
[ā¦ā¦I understand. Whether this is necessary or not is something Iām not sure of butā¦ā¦]
[Itās settled then. But before thatā¦ā¦ Iād like you to do something with what you wear first. Olivia-san, do you have any civilian clothing?]
Olivia-sanās attire was an extravagant priest vestment, an outfit that clearly identified her as the Founder. If I were to be honest, she looks extremely inconspicuous.
She would definitely attract a lot of attention, especially here in the Friendship City, and thereās a high possibility that she wouldnāt be able to enjoy sightseeing in a relaxed manner.
On the other hand, because of how strong of an impression her outfit had, I donāt think people would notice her if she changed her clothes.
Thatās why I checked with her, but I donāt think she has any other clothes. After all, she never goes out of the Cathedral except for the Festival of Heroes, and the outfit sheās wearing now would be the same one that she wore when the Festival of Heroes is held.
[I donāt own any other clothes.]
[I seeā¦ā¦ Alice, sorry, but can I have something nice for her?]
Her answer came back as I had expected, so I decided to ask for Aliceās help here. Anyhow, I think I would need to forcefully lead here when it came to Olivia-san.
Thereupon, after handing a gold coin to Alice, she immediately understood what I was thinking and after horizontally moving her finger, the space in front of her opened up and created some sort of entrance.
[Well then, please get in the dressing room.]
[Huh? No, it doesnāt really matter if I stay in these clothesā¦ā¦ I mean, how can you make a subspace in this prayer room thatās under the influence of my abilityā¦ā¦]
[With all the cutting I did as part of my training, Iāve already reached quasi-omnipotence level in this aspect. Putting aside Fate-san, who had been raising her capabilities as a God, I can do whatever I want against beings on the same level as the other Supreme Gods. Anyway, please quickly get in.]
Ignoring the startled Olivia-san, Alice threw her into the spatial rift. From here, I canāt see whatās going on in the subspace beyond the rift, but I can still hear their voices.
[For the time being, letās have you wear this and thisā¦ā¦]
[No, like I said, Iāll stay in these clothes- W- What are you!?]
[Ah, shut it, will you? Iām not asking for your opinion. Come on, strip alreadyā¦ā¦ Heck, why the heck do you not wear underwear like Fate-sanā¦ā¦ Haahhh, for the time being, wear these underwear too.]
[P- Please wait! At least let me do it my-!?!?]
I heard something that sounded like an inaudible scream, but I think Iāll leave it to Aliceā¦ā¦ For the time being, for the sake of Olivia-san though, I guess Iāll cover my ears.
