「If I reic like me 」

Seiya talked to me as if he had a plan in mind for Elle

「Lista, is there a God in the heavenly world that specializes in fire? 」

「A God who can evoke fire I do have one in mind, but…」

「Nice Guide us the way 」

「Hrasped the he, Elle? 」

「Sorry, Lisutan But…Is that God of fire kind like you? 」

She h and rude God when she heard the name ”God of Fire” I smiled at Elle

「It will be okay! Unlike the entle Goddess who can beautifully perforlad! 」

Elle showed a bright smile as usual

I took them with me and we headed for the water-mirror pond, which was located near the courtyard Despite being located within the terounds, the pond of the divinity resembled a small lake with beautiful crystal-clear water on its surface Hestica usually practices her fire abilities near that place…

As we got close to the pond, I thought to myself ”I hope she's there” Then, I saw birdsin the sky There was no mistake It's Hestica

Near the shoreline of the water-e firebird on her arm Because she was a Goddess of Fire, her favorite color see a cri wavy red hair, so when I first saw her, it looked like she was inizedtime since I've seen you 」

「Lady Hestica Yes, it's been a very long tiazed at both Seiya and Elle

「Look at e have here Are you the heroes that are under Lista's care? 」

「Yes! In fact, we came here because I had a favor to ask you, Lady Hestica… 」

When I asked if she could teach Elle to improve her fire skills, she answered like this

「It is the duty of all the Gods in the God's realladly help you 」

Hestica gave me two compassionate replies

Elle bowed her head to Hestica

「My…uidance!! 」

Hestica gently stroked Elle's head who seemed to be too tense and stiff

「You have a beautiful red hair laughs lightly A? Don't be nervous, I won't be strict 」

「Yes! 」

「Well, then, let's get started Show ic skills… 」

As Elle kept shooting fire arrows into the sky, Seiya and I left the water-mirror pond area I was relieved to entrust Elle to Hestica However, I orried at Celseus state of mind, so I needed to check on Mash later on…

As I walked down the corridor, Seiya spoke with conviction

「Okay Let's find someone I can practice with 」

I looked at Seiya and his eyes were sparkling

…I felt like I'roup full of children that are under er than Celseus out there The God's reale place; even if we searched, ould take a very long tio back to the teed in hts that I didn't notice a Goddess ahead ofsound Suddenly, our shoulders collided

「What? Ah, I' with my head down, but when I looked up at the Goddess that I collided with…

「Ah!? Hey you, can you even walk properly!? 」

She spoke aggressively to ently I stepped away fro fast when I realized whom I came to face with

A boyish but beautiful Goddess with a short silver hair was approachingchains wrapped around her chest and lower body areas This person was the Goddess of Destruction, Valkyrie She looked rudely at ht they no longer existed huh!? 」

「I'ivenervously Then, after scratching her nose, Valkyrie grinned sarcastically

「By the way, Listarte I heard that you got a world with an S-rank salvation difficulty, isn't that right? How's it going? 」

「Well, about that, I guess it's going okay I'ly It's i! 」

「laughs hesitantly That's…that's probable 」

I was apparently laughing, however, I felt very uncomfortable about this situation

「Eh… 」

Suddenly, Valkyrie touched , Lady Valkyrie!? 」

「srab some milk!! You look better than me, so it should be possible!! 」

「Please…Please, stop it!! 」

Yet, she didn't stop harassingme like this, I'll…!

「Don't do it! Stop it…No…Please, stop it…! 」

After I begged tearfully, Valkyrie finally stopped pestering me

「Okay! I'll leave you alone for now! Listarte, listen carefully; you better be watchful of your surroundings the next ti amused

Whoa, it was sexual harass with her!! Even though, we are in a celestial world, there are still bad Goddesses around here!?

I noticed that my dress' upper part was messy and I started to shed some tears Meanwhile, Seiya stared atbullied? 」

「Of course not!! Lady Valkyrie acts like that in front everyone else!! 」

Actually, since I am a fairly new Goddess, I have a low rank Therefore, I' bullied…No…I don't want to accept that!

「Anyways, I felt so? 」

「Overly exposed woman you say…Seiya, do you really understand? Listen She is called as Goddess of Destruction and she is probably the strongest Goddess in the God's realht next to the powerful Great Goddess Isister Well, I can't do anything to soot it? She's unbelievably strong, but she's a stubborn Goddess on't train anyone but herself Lady Valkyrie is very fearless Even Gods and Goddesses could be erased from this world if they disobey her One day, there was a God who licked his mouth in front of her, and he was immediately erased 」

While I fixed my unkempt dress, I looked around and I didn't see Seiya anywhere

What…?

…All of a sudden, I saw that Seiya was talking to Valkyrie a couple of meters ahead of me

「Hey, you overly exposed woman Practice withover there!?
