Chapter 4: The Duties of the Goddess

"So...... What should she do?"

Leah asked, pointing to the dark elf girl who had been silent and just looking at her side in a daze.

"Uh......h I told Anya that she was free, but she didn't seem willing to leave. ”

Eve tilted her head and said in distress.

"I'm not going to leave with this thing, and I'll be caught back after walking out of the gate less than three steps. ”

Leah stepped forward and stroked the collar around Anya's neck with her hand.

"It's made of metal, and it's carved with anti-magic runes. These traffickers are well prepared. ”

The azure light flashed, and the inferior anti-magic rune could not resist the power of space, and the metal collar broke into two pieces and fell to the ground.

"Okay, you're free, go wherever you want. ”

She waved her hand and said to the girl.

"I'm not going anywhere, you helped me, so I'll help you too. ”

The girl shook her head.

"Your name is ...... Anya: Right? We're going to face a very dangerous, very dangerous enemy, are you sure you're going to help us? Or ...... Are you sure you're ready to die?"

Leah asked, worried that the girl's warm-hearted heart might not stand the test.

"That's right, my name is Anya. Miss Eve saved my life, so I'll pay you back, it's a fair deal. And...... I've heard your previous conversations, and I've seen your disguises, are you really willing to let me go?"

Anya asked rhetorically.

"Uh...... If you can say that, then I think you are credible. But the other way around...... Do you think we can be trusted?"

Leah was a little embarrassed, if it wasn't for Anya's reminder, she really forgot that the girl knew about their disguise.

"As I said, you saved my life, then I will pay you back. It's fair trade. I'd rather die than be bought as a pet by a slave trader to some nobleman. ”

Anya hesitated, then continued:

"And...... Eve and Leah, I will not forget your names, nor will I forget who saved the Elves, and I will not forget who defeated Yuhime. You are the benefactors of the elves. He is also my benefactor.

Father...... We have betrayed our people, we have brought in evil gods, and now the dark elves have fallen apart, and he has died in exile. ”

"Father...... You're Ivoi's daughter!?"

Leah asked. Ivoi is the culprit of the calamity and the leader of the exiled Dark Elves.

"Exactly, but none of that matters anymore. Say, what do you need me to do?"

Anya asked.

"You need to rest at the moment, and I don't think a guy who has been sneaking for a few days still has the strength to do anything. Go ahead...... Get some good sleep and then we'll talk about what to do next. ”

Leah shook her head.

“...... I know. ”

Anya nodded a little disappointed, but still listened to the girl's advice.

"Poor boy...... She must have suffered a lot. ”

Leah shook her head, she could tell from the conversation that the girl was very vigilant, although she longed to believe little Lori and Eve, but it was like a fortification that had been built for too long, and it would take a lot of work to dismantle it.

"But she was willing to trust us. That's great. ”

Eve clasped her hands to her chest and said with relief.

"Yes......"

Lori walked over to the table and spread out a map of the city. I want to get acquainted with the environment.

"Leah, I think those slaves are pitiful. ”

Eve stepped forward and said.

"I know, and then what?"

Leah asked, looking at the map where it might be a vampire stronghold.

"I want to save them. ”

Eve said.

"I'm sorry, Sister Eve, but it can't be. ”

Leah is still buried in the map. She had known that Eve would say that.

"But ......"

"But you have to know that our purpose is to deal with vampires, and we don't have enough strength to deal with a country. Yes, it was a country, and saving these slaves meant that we had to destroy the entire slave market. ”

What else does the goddess have to say. But Leah interrupted her.

Little Lori knew that Eve was very cute and kind, but this time the goddess was a little too kind, because their new guild was a small organization to put it bluntly, and it was unrealistic to completely eliminate a country's slave market.

"But I still want to ask you, Leah. ”

But the goddess refused to give up.

"Why?"

So little Lori asked.

"Because I can hear, I hear them crying out for help, can't Leah hear?"

The goddess put her hand to her ear as if listening to the sound of the tide on the shore.

"I'm sorry they don't even know the name of the goddess of time and space. ”

Leah shook her head.

"Listen, my dear Sister Eve, there are many people in this world who are living miserable lives, and saving them all is not what normal people should do......"

"Yes, normal people can't do that, but we're goddesses, Leah. ”

This time it was Lori's turn to be speechless. That's right, people often deny the seemingly impossible with words like "It's not man's business, leave it up to the gods to decide."

Unfortunately, on the continent of Evette, these tasks happen to be the responsibility of Leah and Eve.

"Ha ......"

Little Lori sighed and was silent for a long time.

"Leah?"

So Eve leaned forward and asked, tilting her head.

"Ah!! I see! I see! I'll help you!"

So a certain Lori shouted to herself. She finally understood how heavy the goddess's responsibilities were, and how funny and unrealistic they were.

"Leah!"

The goddess smiled, and the little Lori looked like she was about to cry, she had never regretted her goddess status so much.

"Listen, you must promise me - first of all to recognize the reality, my dear Sister Eve. Even if we are goddesses, you and I are not the fairy fairies in fairy tales who can make Cinderella marry a prince with a wave of a magic wand. I don't know how the goddess does it, I just know how to do it in the human mind. And that will inevitably be accompanied by bloodshed and sacrifice, and you have to be conscious.

Second, if I, after thinking about it, tell you that you can't do it, then you have to give up. No God is omnipotent, no matter in that world. We must do what we can, and we must not sell ourselves into it. ”

Eventually, Leah said solemnly.

"Yes, I see!"

So Eve smiled, as innocent as the little girl who got the candy.

"Tell me, isn't it that everyone was busy before Ragnarok for your unreasonable demands?"

Little Lori smiled bitterly, lazily leaned on the table and stretched, and then said.

"Uh......h Leah is too much, so I won't keep everyone busy. ”

The goddess sat on the other side of the table, her hands on her cheeks, her mouth puffed out, and she muttered.

"Yes, yes, let's cheer up and do the work of the goddess well, you are right, this country must be purified. ”

Leah rubbed the goddess's puffy little face, and then said seriously. (To be continued.) )
