24. Ritual of evoking the gods
"Morning! Good morning, Lord God! ”
In a panic, Fei Lili didn't even notice that she stepped on Nangong's toes, but tried her best to pretend to be calm. In the face of the divine envoy who was just "in a daze", she had always been quite steady, and she acted as panicked as if she had seen an arrogant student.
"This is the Ombudsman I said I was going to bring about the statement, so I didn't bother you by visiting so early, did I?"
How so...... Very, ordinary.
The "Divine Messenger" just shook her head very "ordinary", and she didn't know if it was too "noble" or her personality was like this, she didn't answer Filily's question positively, but looked out the door.
Naturally, there will be nothing there except for the stone gate carved with beautiful angel patterns, and staring at it like that, do you care about the archbishop standing alone opposite? From this point of view, both of them are still lonely and a little pitiful.
"The archbishop is outside." Instead of Filili, who was already nervous and unable to speak, Nangong asked, "Do you want her to come in?" ”
"No need." This time, the oracle, who had been quite "cold" before, finally spoke, and she always felt that her mood was much more relieved after knowing that the archbishop would not come.
"It would be much easier if she didn't come, and you would be so lucky to be managed by such a bishop."
……
Wait, that's not what an oracle should say.
"What's wrong, is it weird?"
The divine envoy spun around in place, and at this time, Nangong finally felt as if she had "lived".
"Whatever we are, at least we're not cold machines. The archbishop, by contrast, was more strict, and was always a little reserved in front of her. You guys. Don't worry too much, right? ”
How can you not care.
Although I want to say so. However, Nangong never felt any nervousness. As for Filily's words, although her face looks much better now, she still can't help but be overwhelmed by excitement.
"So, let me introduce myself first, even I don't want to keep shouting 'divine envoys' and 'divine messengers'." The messenger approached Filily's face as he spoke, and although it startled Filily, it finally relieved the faithful believer who had never come back to his senses.
"My name is Mia, and although I don't deviate much from the 'oracle' you understand, unfortunately I can't directly participate in the battle. In fact, I am no different from ordinary people. ”
"You, how can you participate in the fight? It's something that can't happen. ”
"It's not a matter of being able or not. It's a bit of a hindrance. Mia shook her head, "Well, I think your time is precious, so I'll tell you as much as I can about Beluseb, after all, she and I are old acquaintances." ”
Old knowledge?
"You're in the same ...... The world? ”
“……”
"Hey, what kind of rude question do you ask the Divine Envoy?" Seeing that the divine envoy was silent, Fei Lili hurriedly stepped on Nangong's toes, "How can the divine envoy and the demon live together?" ”
"Belusep, which represents gluttony and so on, doesn't need to be explained. The focus is on her strength. ”
Mia looked at Nangong, after all, he was the one who really saw Belusep. "It's been a while since I've 'interacted,' but I guess she's still carrying that 'stick', right?"
"Huh? Well...... Yes. ”
Strictly speaking, it should be a bayonet. But there's nothing wrong with being called a stick by an oracle.
"I remember you had a 'machine spirit' here, but Beluseb's sword isn't what you think. If the machine spirit is destroyed, its body will also die, but the demon on Beluseb's sword, Caladeboga, is just 'lodging' on it, she is a demon who can control thunder and lightning, and I don't know why she is with Belusseb. But ......"
After a pause, Mia said, "What you know is that if you had targeted her weapons in the first place, it would obviously not have been fruitful. It's not as dangerous as it can be. ”
With a sword of thunder and lightning, he can speak even though he looks like a sword. Indeed, none of this is consistent with the characteristics of the machine spirit. If it's a demon who lives on the sword, then it means that the enemy this time is not Beluseb.
"Belussebub excels in 'projection' magic, which is the duplication of her weapons to oppress the other party in a large number of ways. If necessary, the demon Kara on the sword will also cooperate in controlling the thunder and lightning, and it will basically become the same situation as before. ”
Mia smiled at Nangong, "I also saw the situation here that day, it's really lucky that you are alive." ”
"Hah...... Ha, thank you. ”
It's not lucky, it should just be a chance to survive under various coincidences and Beluseb's intentional or unintentional release of water. If Belusebu hadn't flaunted her lame swordsmanship in the first place, and if the "commander" had been a little more serious later, I'm afraid that all that Filily had done now would have been to salute her coffin.
"Then, Lord God. Is there any way we can ......?"
"No, at least not now, at least for now......"
Mia muttered and began to walk around the pool. Although it was not clear what kind of plan the divine envoy was thinking in his head, Nangong had no choice but to follow Fei Lili's example and calm down and wait for the divine envoy's order.
After all, no matter how warm and kind she was before, she couldn't change her status here. And as an ordinary overseer, even if he does not believe in God, he must obey orders here.
"Belusebub came with that storm, but I don't know who could summon her and get her to do what she was told. If it was really just the magicians of the 'Magic Society' that you were talking about, then the 'magician' who summoned her was certainly no ordinary 'magician'. Even if Belusebub is summoned, she still has her own consciousness, and if you want her to be obedient, you must satisfy her, plus the power required to summon it...... I'm afraid this should be something that only witches can do. ”
That "Trainee Witch"!
Nangong's first thought was Emilia, but if it was only to the level of apprenticeship, I was afraid that it would not reach the call that the divine envoy said. But since it is a "probationary", then there must be a "teacher". Then the only possibility is......
"There may be a witch in the Magical Society?"
"It can only be explained in this way, but a creature like a witch shouldn't appear here." Mia tilted her head and turned suddenly, "I'm not a commander, and I don't want to interfere in your affairs. I need to prepare for a ritual these days, so please at least keep your surroundings safe, as long as the ritual is successful, I think it will be enough to have the confidence to fight. ”
"Ritual, ritual?" Filily unconsciously took a step back, "Then, you...... What kind of ritual is it? ”
"Phew, I am what you call an 'oracle.'" Mia laughed, although the feeling given to Nangong was not because of "confidence".
"What kind of ritual do you think I'm going to perform?" (To be continued......)
