Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure-Chapter 1143: Origin Giant (3)

A bitter smile appeared on my face when she said this.

Caused trouble for me?

That was certain!

After all, if it wasn't for that prophecy of hers, then I wouldn't have been caught up in all of this.

"It's not my fault, I'm just the messenger." Solista said in a soft voice that I was still able to hear.

"Just the messenger? A messenger for who?" I immediately asked after hearing this.

As if she realized that she made a mistake, Solista gave an awkward cough and said, "Nothing, it's nothing that you need to know about."

I narrowed my eyes to look at her.

These were eyes that were filled with doubt, eyes that clearly didn't have any trust in her.

But this kind of tactic didn't really work on a god.

It wasn't as if I could hold her to the same convention as a human since it wasn't as if I could even be in this place if they didn't call me here. But she didn't send me back even though I was looking at her like this.

Finally, I said, "Alright, just tell me what else I have to do. You were too vague with your other prophecy that I had to scramble my brain even to think of the other relics from the other races. The least you can do now is tell me where I have to go, right?"

Solista gave an awkward cough before saying, "I mean, you already figured it out. Is there a need for me to tell you anything?"

I narrowed my eyes even more when I heard this and didn't say anything as I stared at her with this gaze.

In the end, Solista gave a sigh before saying, "Alright, I'll give you a few clues."

I was surprised to hear her say this.

I really didn't have anything to rely on to threaten her like this, so I hadn't actually expected her to agree to this request.

Not to mention that she was a god in the first place, so she should have been able to read my mind and know that I didn't expect anything. She clearly didn't have to tell me anything since she was a god and the one that held all the cards.

But in the end, it seemed like there was something that compelled her to give me an answer. Though I had no idea what it was.

Because I had gotten her to do this, I could see that the Origin Giant was looking at me with a strange look.

It was almost as if he was looking at me with admiration over the fact that I had convinced Solista to agree to my request.

I didn't think that what I did was that impressive, but if that was what he wanted to think...

After a moment of silence, Solista said, "You're already on the right track with the relations that you've already created. Of course, the more races that you can bring to your side, the easier it'll be for you when the time comes."

A bitter smile appeared on my face when I heard this.

It seemed like she wasn't planning on giving me a specific number.

After all, she had said that the more races that I brought to my side, the better.

That was a clear indication that she wanted me to befriend as many races as possible.

"I can't tell you more than that, I really can't. Even if I wanted to, I'm not allowed. I hope that you understand that." When Solista said this, it was as if she was saying this in a voice that was hoping that I would cut her some slack.

It was just that I couldn't understand this at all.

What could get a god in trouble?

Solista didn't say anything, but based on the way that she was silent as this thought passed through my mind, it seemed that this was something that she couldn't talk about.

So in the end, even if I had my doubts, I didn't say anything since it would put her in a hard position.

So far, Solista had done what she could to help me and it didn't seem like she wanted to harm me. In that case, I shouldn't make things hard for her.

It was just that...

"I know that you're frustrated, but I promise that this is for your good. I hope that you will keep working hard on this since dark times are about to come." There was a trace of a heavy tone in Solista's voice as she said this.

It was almost as if there was something that she was worried about when she said this.

I didn't say anything as I just silently looked at her, but there was nothing that I could figure out since I couldn't see her face in the first place. There was that light that was obscuring my view of her, so I couldn't get any clues from her even if I wanted to.

In the end, all I could do was accept what she said.

"Alright, I'll keep what you've said in mind." That was all I could say in response to this.

There was a soft sound that seemed like a sigh that rang out through the air after I said this.

I couldn't help shaking my head with a faint smile when I heard this before turning to look at the Origin Giant to ask, "How do I get back to that place?"

"Oh, I'll send you back when you're ready. I'll also give you my mark so you can take my club away." Then as if he remembered something, the Origin Giant added, "When you get back, be sure to call the elders in and I'll tell them about you."

I was surprised by the way that the Origin Giant said this since it was completely different from how he talked to me before.

It was as if there was a trace of politeness that was in his voice now.

"Alright, I'm ready."

The last thing that I heard was...

"My name is Aurgel by the way."
