To The Evil God

I, Seyi Falt, had come at my master’s request to beat up the evil god said to dwell in the sea.

Well, that part was fine, but…

“I wonder what this evil god looks like.”

After taking a meal break, our group swam onward through the sea.

Even though I’d been told to defeat the evil god, I hadn’t heard a single thing about what it looked like.

“I’m sure it’s～… got a really scaaaary face, yes it does!”

Daphne-chan pulled up the corners of her eyes with her fingers.

Oh my, how adorable.

“I wish it were an evil god as cute as that.”

“Waaah! Ehehe♡ I got called cute～♡”

Daphne-chan the mermaid rolled around underwater.

Sui-chan rolled around with her too. Too adorable.

“…However, what are we actually supposed to do? Being told to defeat an opponent whose true nature we don’t even know…”

Zenith-chan the elf always did bring the conversation back to the main point.

“Apparently the evil god has put up some kind of barrier.”

“…A barrier?”

“A barrier of invisibility. If we smash that, it won’t just stay quiet, right? Then whatever comes attacking us, that’s the evil god. And then we beat it up!”

“I see…”

Zenith-chan nodded.

“So we battle whoever makes eye contact with us? Is this a delinquent thing, or Poké●on?”

“What do you mean, delinquent? And what’s Poké●on?”

“Hmph… there are things Master doesn’t know that only I know. Want to know? Come on, do you want to know?”

So annoying…

Ignoring the annoying robot, we just kept swimming along.

“Oh, is that it, I wonder?”

Before long, the barrier we were looking for came into view.

But Toka-chan tilted her head.

“My lord? Which one is ‘that,’ exactly?”

“Hm? I mean this, obviously. This right here. See?”

The slave girls and Sui-chan all tilted their heads in confusion.

Oh? They couldn’t see it?

The robo-maid quietly approached and gave my shoulder a light pat.

“Master. You must be tired.”

“It’s not a hallucination.”

“I recommend wearing a warm eye mask before bed.”

“I said it’s not a hallucination.”

“Drink some hot milk and go to sleep early tonight.”

“I said! I can see it! Seriously! It’s here! There’s! A barrier! Here! See!?”

The slave girls shook their heads, then looked at me anxiously.

“Big sis…”

“My lord… ngh! To think you are this exhausted…”

“…Seyi-sama. I-I can lend you my lap, so please go to sleep.”

The slave girls were worried about me!

They were worrying over something they didn’t need to worry about!

“I’m fine. Look, it’s faint, but you can tell it has mana, right?”

The slave girls just tilted their heads again.

My, my, so they really couldn’t see it.

“Master. I believe it is most likely using concealment magic in addition to the barrier.”

“Huh. But both are magic, right? Which means they both carry mana, so if you follow that, you can tell even if it’s concealed.”

Zenith-chan nodded in admiration.

“…I see! This is very educational!”

“Um, Big Sis is amaaazing!”

“As expected of my lord! It’s far too difficult for me to understand, though!”

“…………!”

boing boing.

It seemed Daphne-chan and the others hadn’t understood it, but they praised me anyway. So precious.

“All right then, let’s blast this thing with an Explosion Potion.”

“…Can you make something explode underwater?”

“You can. As long as there’s oxygen in the water… like this!”

I hurled the potion.

Boboom! It exploded violently, and then…

The barrier was blown apart. All right!

“To think you can make something explode underwater, my lord truly is so knowledgeable!”

“Why, thank you… now then.”

Rumble rumble! Something huge started swimming toward us.

That must be it. All right then, let’s beat it up!
