T-Too fast kyaahhhh?!
Ahahaha
Hey, hey. Did you try the current over there, too?
Yup! I shot up midway! Its way too fun!!
Really? Then Ill go try it for a bit!
Ah, too! One more round!
The rmaids were happily playing in the currents that had been generated within my shrine.
This place was basically open, so rmaids and rn could go in and out as they pleased.
There was too little entertainnt in this undersea world, so the rfolks always looked forward to the currents I created on a whim, but
They found this Halt boys currents far more interesting than the currents of mine that were only fast.
Hoh. So theres a sudden drop from that point, I see.
Whoa! The bend is at that angle over there!?
Fumu, fumu.
Spiraling, then whoosh.
I see Yeah, its fun alright.
I also wanted to try it for myself, but I cant help but be conscious of what the shikigami and the rfolks would think if I, the Sea God himself, were to play in the currents created by a human.
Then, I just have to make a similar current and secretly play there.
Halt, is it?
Yes. Im Halt Vie Silveray. A Sage from Glendale.
Sage at that tender age Perhaps, are you a transmigrator?
Yes, thats right.
Halt answered my questions honestly.
No plans to hide?
Or was it because Im a deity that he thought it would be futile to hide anything from ?
Well, I dont care anyway. I like this Halt.
Hes young, but hes courteous, and the amount of mana he had based on the several currents he generated inside my shrine, coupled with the manipulation skills he had told this boy was powerful.
I like strong guys.
The deities also have powerful guys like the Martial God and the Dragon God, but we cant just battle freely.
Gramps Creator God will scold us.
Thats why I get pretty excited when I et strong people among humans.
Not only that, this guy went out of his way to visit .
He defeated Kraken and Leviathan underwater, and he even ca to .
Theres no other choice but to battle it out with him, right?
Wait, calm down.
Its said that Halt chased after shikigami until he reached this place. Then maybe he can move really fast underwater?
Id be stumped if he were to run away.
Well, I dont think hed be able to run away from underwater, but Its kinda boring chasing after soone who ran away and forcing them to fight.
I want to fight to my hearts content against the person I wanted to battle it out with.
Thats why
By the way, do you have so kind of motive for coming all the way here, Halt?
I decided to ask what he wished for first.
In exchange for granting his wish, I would have him fight .
Im a deity. Moreover, not just any ordinary one, but the Sea God that governed the worlds oceans.
Im also connected to the Sky God that governs the skies, and the Earth God that manages the earth.
Sky God, Earth God, Sea God thats and the Evil God made up the so-called Four Great Deities.
We stand at the highest echelons of the deity ranking yes, thats who we are.
Only Gramps, the Creator God, stood above us.
Thats why I could grant wishes if I was in the mood for it.
Its just that Ill be troubled if the wish is sothing along the lines of please return to my previous world...
Besides, granting wishes consus quite a considerable amount of Divine Energy, so I cant just do it arbitrarily. I couldnt even just do whatever I wanted while preparing myself to get scolded by Gramps.
Well, its not like I want to do that
Thats why I need to confirm first if Halts wish is sothing I can grant.
Motive? Hmmm, well
Halt seed troubled for so reason.
A giant squid and a sea dragon started thrashing around and rampaging near the ship I was on, so I stopped them. Thats when I noticed that girl underwater, and she suddenly rushed off with great speed, so I unwittingly chased after her until I ended up here.
Thats also what Shikigami told .
Halt apparently chased after her due to a conditioned reflex.
I think hes amazing for being able to keep up with the Shikigamis speed and moving that fast just so he wont lose sight of her.
I was surprised to see such a colossal structure at the depths of the sea. Moreover, were in the deepest part of the ocean, and yet the building was faintly glowing so its bright
Oh. Thats my power illuminating this place.
Its not like the dark poses any problem for living here, but there are those who are worried when the lower ranked deities visit.
It piqued my interest, and since I didnt see any guard and everythings open I went in just like that.
So thats what happenedHm?
Eh, dont tell .
Wait a minute, Halt. Dont tell you dont know who I am?
Eh?! Eh, er I apologize.
Seriously?
Then, theres no way he would know that this is my shrine.
Yeah, sorry. I honestly thought you already knew who I am, so I didnt introduce myself. Okay Im Poseidon, the God of Sea.
Sea God, Posei Ehh?!
You know ?
Y-Yes. Of course! One of the Four Great Deities, am I right?
Yeah.
It seems that even the transmigrators already have that kind of knowledge.
Then this place must be the Shrine of the Sea God?
Yeah. My ho.
I-Im so sorry! I did sothing weird inside the Shrine without knowing anything!
Hes probably referring to the currents he made so that the rmaids can play.
Nah, dont worry about it. The rfolks seem to be enjoying themselves, too.
Halts mana control was perfect, and the currents he created using his mana didnt break any of the ornants, much less the shrine itself.
Rather than that, what bothered was
You ca here without knowing this is my Shrine, so you dont have any sort of wish for , the deity, right?
...Yes.
Oh, so thats how it was.
This beca quite troubleso.
I wouldnt be able to have him fight against in exchange for granting his wish.
In this world, Gramps Creator God forbids us deities to make a move on humans.
The only exception was for the human to make a move on the deity first.
Deities were allowed to retaliate in that case.
Thats why I wanted Halt to be the first one to attack so that we could start a battle.
However, since Halt ca here without any sort of expectation, I couldnt negotiate with him.
Im the deity of sea creatures, so I dont know what the earth people want in the first place.
This is turning more troubleso by the second.
Hey, Halt. Wanna battle with ?
Its a pain in the neck coming up with ideas, so I just asked him directly.
If he refused, then theres nothing I could do.
A wish from him The chance is pretty slim.
Anyone willing to fight against deities would either be an idiot with a few loose screws in the head, an overconfident fool who blindly believed in the power he had, or a Bakemono that was far more powerful than us deities.
Halt may look young but he did co off as intelligent, and it was also kind of amazing that he managed to make it this far, but I didnt sense any sort of Bakemono-level power from him.
Thats why I didnt really think he would be willing to fight against .
Thats what I thought, but
Yes, its fine with . Lets do it!
Halt confidently declared that he would fight against .
