The goddess looking for a dwelling, a little passed noon, she encountered Izumi in the girls’ dorm. For the goddess who wept as she begged for salvation, Izumi wiped her mouth and put her clothes in the laundry. And it was there that the forr goddess’ stomach let out a magnificent roar.
This is the school story of such a goddess...
◇
Dressing the goddess of growling stomach in her own clothes, Izumi led her to the girls’ dorm cafeteria. The form of her leading the goddess by the hand made one imagine a parental figure. The forr goddess nervously looked around as she showed interest in a dining hall different than the one in the boys’ dorm.
“What’s that!? They didn’t have those cakes or sweets over there! The flan here even has whipped cream over it! Ah, but that cake looks nice too.”
As the forr goddess frolicked, Izumi gave a warm smile as she ordered a lunch set along with a cake. Unlike the boys’ dorm, the food there was served with appearance in mind, with portions on the conservative side. But surprisingly, the most popular item on the nu was the heaping portion lunch set one wouldn’t want to be caught eating in the world beyond.
The two found an empty table and took their seats. And as the goddess began eating, as expected, she soiled the area around her mouth.
“Over there, the taste is thick and the portions are plenty, but this isn’t half bad... this cake is nice and sweet. The candy that Aleist kid brought doesn’t hold a candle to it. From here on, I’ll put a prerequisite on quality and... ah, I don’t have a temple anymore.”
As the goddess went through a cycle of delight and sorrow, Izumi occasionally stepped in to wipe off her mouth.
“I heard what happened from Rudel. I can’t quite understand, but you’ve had your troubles... may I hear your na?”
“Na? ... Don’t have one of those.”
Her cheeks stuffed with cake, she continued chowing down as she answered. As she never had one from the start, perhaps she never attached much importance to it, and Rudel didn’t try to decide a na for her. When she said that to Izumi, Izumi let out a sigh.
“How very like Rudel. I’ll put in a word, but if you do ever rember your na, please tell .”
While Izumi still didn’t understand Rudel’s story or what it ant to be a forr goddess, perhaps she was right. Who would ever think this young girl eating cake with her mouth all dirty was a goddess?
“It’s already this late? I’m sorry, but I have to go to class, so I’ll guide you to the exit. I’ll give your clothes to Rudel tomorrow or so. And you can have what you’re wearing right now.”
From the forr goddess’ story, she learned that Rudel didn’t prepare much clothing for her, so Izumi decided to give her so of her own. How kind... the forr goddess’ heart was moved as she was led to the girls’ dorm entrance where she parted with the Izumi. Forgetting her original objective, her stomach was full and she was going sleepy.
“Is there anywhere I can sleep?”
Still fearful of Fina in the girls’ dorm, the forr goddess sat on a bench so distance from the dorm. Noon had gone by, but the sunlight was still pleasantly warm, the weather weighing down on her eyelids...
“Good night...”
She ended up falling asleep alone.
◇
“H-huh? It’s already evening! It’s ti for dinner!”
The forr goddess woke to the sound of her own stomach, but the area was already beginning to grow dark. She had already forgotten her original objective, and she tried to return to the boys’ dorm, but... as the area grew dark, the feel it gave of changed, leaving her lost once again.
“As I recall, you go down this path... no, but it could be this one too. Urrgggh.”
The forr goddess felt she would burst into tears again. But there, so demi-humans appeared to surround her. In the darkening campus, the eyes of the demi-humans that looked as if they glowed startled her. Looking around to see what was going on...
“Ah, this woman has master’s sll... what to do, I don’t think I can let this pass.”
“*Sniff*, that really is Rudel’s sll.”
“The sll of a strong male...”
Ness of the black cat tribe appeared as if erging from the darkness, and this ti girls of the tiger tribe began to saunter out. Ness’ scary statent with her suspicious face, and the tiger tribe won over two ters in height surrounding her. Perhaps frightened by their talks of sll, the forr goddess trembled as she looked for her path of escape.
As she did, this ti, white cat Mii looked at the forr goddess as she spoke.
“Ah, this person is Rudel-sama’s pet who ca by around noon. The princess said she was a junior apprentice, so we have to harshly drill in the pecking order. She was making quite a ruckus, so I rember it.”
I’m saved! The goddess thought, but the demi-humans reacted to the contrary.
“Pet!? When he already has a slave in , such a woman stays by Rudel-sama’s side... unforgivable.”
“I see, so I simply have to defeat her and take her place.”
“Great thinking boss! You’re a genius.”
“That’s definitely strange! That idea was definitely a fail. More importantly, just what is Rudel-sama supposed to be!?What did he do for things to co to... hey, white cat, can’t you save !?”
“... But the princess told
to be harsh on you...”
“What!? I-it couldn’t be you’re kin to that rude little girl!? She’s followed
all the way here... at this rate, I really will be killlleeeedd!!!”
“I won’t let you escape!”
“Chase her!”
“It’s hunting tiee!!!”
Caring not for appearances, the forr goddess fled. But the demi-humans, the won of the beastn tribes were considerably fast on their feet, and even when the forr goddess was running for dear life, they were gradually beginning to close the distance. What she recalled were the days when the people honored her, but by the black knight’s unjust resentnt, the people all stopped coming to the temple... it all flashed by like a revolving lantern.
“Wat’s with you all!? Don’t get any closer!!!”
As if the heavens had heard out the forr goddess’ plea, the demi-humans suddenly suppressed their bloodlust, slowing down the speed at which they gave chase. As the forr goddess turned around in wonder, following Ness’ lead, the tiger tribe girls were beginning to get their clothing in order. With gestures as if they were mindful of their appearance. The forr goddess looked around to see what was going on.
As she hadn’t co back, Rudel had co out to search for her, and he sotted him walking her way.
“So this is where you were. I was looking for you.”
“U-uwaaaah!!!”
The forr goddess cried as she jumped at Rudel. And Rudel pet her on the head. Once Rudel noticed Ness and the others, he ca to a misunderstanding. That these feline girls had guided the lost forr goddess all the way here...
“It seems I’ve caused you so trouble. I really am grateful. I know this child is quite a handful, ”but you’ve really helped
out today.
Hearing those words, the demi-humans seed delighted, and after exchanging a few more words with Rudel, they turned to leave. Rudel turned to look at the forr goddess, but perhaps from relief, she had fallen asleep still clinging onto him. Lifting her up just like that, Rudel started off towards the boys’ dorm.
◇
“A na?”
The forr goddess had safely returned to Rudel’s room. After finishing dinner, she jumped right into the bed there and leisurely relaxed.It was at that mont that Rudel spoke as if recalling sothing.
“That’s right. No matter how you look at it, it’s hard to address you. Izumi cautioned
on it... so I think it’s ti we decided your na.”
Saying that, he showed the forr goddess the na candidates put down on papers. The forr goddess looked at the number of nas, but she couldn’t quite decide on her own. Sha hadn’t used the very concept of nas for a long ti, but to start with, she couldn’t understand letters. From when she was a goddess, her knowledge al ca from what she saw and heard. But as a goddess, she was never taught.
For a goddess who would live an eternity, perhaps that would be fine, but this forr goddess... perhaps she had grown conceited, as her knowledge load was lower that Rudel’s. Rather, at the very point she couldn’t read or write, she was considerably lacking in knowledge. Only learning what she liked, in her long years of storing information, it had beco a bad habit.
“... I can’t read. Read them to , and if there’s one I like, I’ll make do with it.”
“Are you really fine with that? Very well, then listen closely. I took in everyone’s opinions, so first we have ‘Granny’ from Aleist, then we have, ‘Useless’ from Luecke, third we have ‘Marin’ from Eunius, and fourth we have ‘Sakuya’ from Izumi. Finally, I submitted ‘Magamon’.”
“Pass on Aleist! And the second is out of the question! Number three- Marin- isn’t bad at all.”
“Yeah, apparently, it’s the na of the number one at the shop Eunius goes to.”
“Number 1? What does that an?”
“It’s a place where older won pour you wine and look after you. For the popular ones, I get the feeling he said you could spend a fortune for a night...”
Marin was a lady from the saloon Eunius frequented. Rudel courteously explained to the goddess how she had beco his favorite lately. And as Rudel seriously went into explanations on how it was part of the night service industry, the forr goddess’ face turned red as she refuted the na Marin with every fiber of her being.
“I-I’m a goddess! I haven’t been tainted yet! Marin is rejected! It’s definitely no good!”
“You think? Well if the one in question says that, then there’s no helping it, but... I think it’s sothing different from being tainted. How about Sakuya then? Since Izumi said it, I’ll give my recomndation.”
“It definitely is nice. But it doesn’t fit my image, so I’ll reject it. Since it’s a na Izumi thought up, I’m hesitating, but images are important with goddesses, you know.”
“Then that ans you’re Mogamon.”
On Rudel’s words, the forr goddess jumped off the bed in protest. Why did it co to that? Her face seed to say, but what’s wrong? Rudel’s face spoke as he looked perplexed at the forr goddess’ reaction.
“Why am I being forced into Mogamon!?”
“I told you to pick from the candidates. If the first four were no good, then naturally the last candidate is automatically selected. Good for you, Mogamon. Having a na is a good thing.”
“In that case, give it a bit more thought before you put out the candidates!!!”
The forr goddess and Rudel’s debate continued a while more. And at the end, Rudel folded, and the forr goddess’ na selection was put on hold.
