Vol 6: Chapter 11 (2)
** White space **
Everyone in that space was kneeling.
Only one person—no, except for one thing, El.
『————Why did you do that, eternal one? El.』
The fur body had already fallen apart; sorcery circuits and machine parts were scattered about. It had already lost the ability to speak. The red eyes of the silent corpse simply looking up at the white being.
『————You shall sleep here as well. And……』
The Transcendent being looked around.
Everyone was kneeling.
Nothing had changed since before.
『————It felt like someone used forbidden magic…』
No one moved.
『————Does not matter. Let’s go to a new world.』
The next moment, the white world disappeared. The Pledgers and mediators were returned to the cathedral.
** Silver Balance **
Something had happened. Dante perceived, but he didn’t know what exactly had happened.
The next moment, however, the Pledgers, and even Reiji, disappeared.
「W-Why is Reiji-kun…!?」Mimino panicked.
「I don’t know.」Dante replied.
「Let’s look for him!」
「Wait, Mimino. Don’t panic… The Pledgers are also gone. Something happened.」
The light shining through the stained glass darkened. And then the Cathedral shook greatly with a loud bang.
『Guyiiaaaaaaaaaaaa!!』
A huge creature clung to the stained glass.
Its appearance was very similar to a lizard, but it had a patagium connecting from its front legs to its hind legs. It looked like a lizard-squirrel fusion monster.
More of those monsters slammed onto the stained glass one after another. When the stained glass eventually shattered, the monsters rushed into the building.
Those lizards were as large as that of an ordinary passenger car. There were 6 such lizards.
「Kyaaaaaaaaaa!」
Panic broke out within the cathedral.
Some ran towards the exit.
Some moved to protect the Pope.
「Keep away from the monsters! We will handle them!!」
The temple knights who were lined up along the walls pulled out their swords and jumped at the lizards.
Chaos erupted in the Cathedral. Roar of monsters echoed.
Dante was at a loss. These were obviously monsters from the other world. It’s a kind he had never seen before.
By all rights, waiting here for Reiji to come back would be the correct decision. But Dante was worried.
The cathedral is a pivotal part of the Church. It must have been enhanced carefully with magic. Even so, these monsters were able to invade inside.
「Dad, the knights have a handle on the situation here. Let’s go outside. There might be more people who need our help out there.」
「But…」
「I am sure Reiji-kun would want us to protect everyone.」
Dante grinned in response to Non’s attitude.
「Let’s go.」
In accordance with Dante’s rally, Silver Balance headed out of the cathedral.
The weather outside was clear. The sun brilliantly shone down. In the middle of it all, a bird monster that Dante had never seen before circled in the sky, a poison-colored frog suddenly appeared in the pond, and a flock of pink monkeys were running around the premises.
The monsters were more terrifying than Dante had imagined.
「——First, let’s clear out the premises. Let the non-hostile monsters escape to the outside.」
「Okay!!」
「Right!」
「Alrights~」
Mimino, Non, and Zerry responded.
Silver Balance started to act to regain security.
At the same time, the same thing happened all over the world.
Fortunately, in many cities and towns, security was increased. So even if confusion occurred, it was settled quickly. In some places, not even animals appeared, much less monsters.
However, tragedy did come to a small number of towns that had not taken any defensive measures.
The houses were destroyed by monsters and the inhabitants were eaten.
Some towns and villages were destroyed before rescue came.
Still, there were many adventurers fighting in places where military security was not available—they stayed near the guild vicinity to raise their adventurer rank and to bet on adventurer battles. As such, they were able to take action immediately.
In addition, they received instructions from the Adventurers guild who had obtained information in advance, and many people were saved by the efforts of the adventurers.
The state of battle for a few days after “World Union”—most of it went as expected.
The problem was outside the cities.
Huge mountains, forests, lakes and rivers appeared suddenly.
There were also places where the terrain changed significantly.
And, deep in the woods, a desperate battle for survival waged on.
The people will only learn about the surviving life forms 10 days after—but that is a story for later.
Earl Sillys hid in a corner of the cathedral.
The person whom he was accompanying, Duke Grenjido, suddenly disappeared.
To the Earl, the Duke seemed as if he was staring into the air vaguely. No one else saw the intense light that Reiji and others felt.
「GORYAAAAA!!!」
A group of temple knights defeated one of the monsters, whereas the Adventurer’s guild master took down another monster with his bare hands
The monsters were already being subdued, but Duke Grenjido had still not returned.
The Pope had already evacuated. The remaining non-combatants were people accompanying the Pledgers.
「Ah!」
Someone shouted.
Just as before, in the blink of an eye, the Pledgers reappeared.
They were all kneeling in a circle, however. As if there was something precious in the center.
「Your Excellency!」
When Earl Sillys approached him, Grenjido stood up in astonishment.
「Your Excellency, what happened?」
「…………」
「……Your Excellency?」
Grenjido was staring at the same space as the other Pledgers.
「…An audience with God, no, the Goddess.」
「What was that?」
Duke Grenjido kept staring at the air without looking at the Earl.
「Wonderful!! It was worth carrying out this “World Union” just to be in the same world as that being!」
Duke Grenjido was full of confidence as usual.
However, Earl Sillys felt that that wasn’t the case.
The words were not his own. Duke Grenjido is not one to revere the might of another.
Earl Sillys was aware that something unusual had happened.
And even though the Pledgers had returned, Reiji hadn’t.
