Chapter 47: A Vanished Hero
It was getting too late I orried that soht have happened Therefore, ent to the tool shop that Seiya visited regularly
The night was deep, but the ht and lively When we arrived at the tool shop, I asked the owner about Seiya's whereabouts
「Ah, you're the lady who lost against my medicinal herbs…Eh? If the man from the other day came today? No, he didn't come I haven't seen him today」
「Eh…He didn't come here? But, Seiya said he wanted to buy some items for his synthesis…」
「You know, Lista Maybe he went to a different tool shop? 」
「You have a point Excuse me sir, but are there other tool shops in Orphe?」
「There is one just out of the city But,to the tool shop was a waste of ti to this part of the city We went to the weaponry shop afterwards, but the result was the sao back to the castle Who knowsMash suggestion, ent back to the castle again
A o, ere joyful on our way to the castle However, right noe all went to the castle with a heavy ato so suddenly… 」
My relaxed mind returned back to nor deep down on my chest What I felt was so unpleasant that I couldn't even describe it
We arrived in the castle straightaway As expected, Seiya was not there I asked a few people in the castle, but no one saw hi time While aited in the room for Seiya, Elle spoke with a nervous voice
「Don't…Don't tellby hi…
「No, absolutely not! There's no way that a cautious hero like Seiya would act recklessly! He was reflecting seriously after defeating the Warlord Eh battle! I'ainst the Dereed with
「Thathas the Chain Destruction! Seiya will certainly die if he loses! I'et provisions and, of course, to get ht…But, where exactly did Mister Seiya go? 」
Yes That was the big question And it ot up and went straight to the door
「Lista! Where are you going? 」
「I don't know But, I can't stay still 」
Just as I opened the door, the Imperial Wizard Flasika came in unexpectedly
「Ah, Flasika! Have you seen Seiya? 」
He didn't know about his whereabouts
「I see So, you're saying that the hero has disappeared before the ultimate battle?」
Flasika put his hand on his jaw as he thought seriously about it Soon, his expression transfor face
「The hero is a human after all I wonder…if he ran away frohtful Flasika
「What…What the hell are you talking about!! My Master would never run away!」
「Excuse me for my rude behavior But in fact, that could be the case Lady Rosalie told h to destroy the hero's soul, is that correct? I noticed that the hero was so Maybe he was afraid to die in the battle with the De! There's no way that Seiya would be afraid of such things!」
I yelled at Flasika just like Mash did I felt as if I was made a fool with this type of conversation That ry
We left Flasika behind and alked away furiously through the castle grounds However, soon, the words professed by Flasika resonated inside my head
…He said Seiya ran because he was afraid? No, no, that can't be true…!
Seiya ed to defeat the Eht that Seiya was actuallyBut…Wasn't that just an act of stubbornness? Maybe his heart sank when he could no longer tolerate that excruciating pain? He slept for three whole days in the castle Maybe that was the reason why…?
I only had negative thoughts when I thought carefully about it Suddenly, a thought popped in my mind I spoke immediately
「Don't tellkilled by the De…?」
「Ah…Ah!? Suicide you say!? 」
「What do you mean, Lisutan!? 」
「His soul will disappear forever if the enemy kills hi, then his soul won't disappear and he'll be able to return to his original world! That's why Seiya probably took his own life…」
「You're kidding, right!! Because if he really did that…then, it would mean that our world was abandoned!?」
「I don't know!! I don't know anything anyame” Everyone was in chaos because of the hero's sudden disappearance I started to cast the spell to invoke the portal to the God's realm
「This is our last resort!! I have no choice but to ask the Great Goddess Isister about Seiya's whereabouts!!」
I took Mash and Elle with me and ent to the God's realm in a hurry…
—
I entered the Great Goddess Isister's roo…
「Excuse me!! 」
I quickly jumped inside the room However, I didn't see the Great Goddess Isister
Instead of her, I saw a fa by theof the room
It was Ariadoa, the senior Goddess, who stood in the Great Goddess Isister's roo fro here!?…Where is the Great Goddess Isister!? It's serious!! Seiya vanished and we can't find him!! We are in a hurry!! We need to knohere he is!!」
Aria slowly turned around after I spoke too fast
I beca from Aria's cheeks
「A…Aria? 」
Aria spoke with a serious expression without wiping her tears away
「Lista Co for you in the ”room that stops time”…」
—
Aria usually talked a lot with h the temple in silence We were quiet as hile we followed her fro my chest
Aria stopped at a door in the hallway of the third floor
「This is the ”room that stops time” 」
I followed Aria and entered the roohtless space There was a desk a little further away fro on a chair
「Lista You finally caon children Most beings can't enter this place But it should be okay if it's Mash and Elle I'll give you permission to step inside if you two have a clear soul」
I noticed how vast this space was behind the Great Goddess Isister The room was an endless space that went into infinity It rese chae library There were , but I knew that those ”lamps” were the soul of Gods, the ”Divine Soul”
The moment I tried to open my mouth to ask about Seiya…
「Lista I knohat you want to ask h the near future She continued to talk with a soleuuin Seiya went by hi you behind in the Imperial Capital」
「Wh…What!? 」
Mash, Elle and I were lost of words because ere too shocked After that, I ed to be calm as I complained to the Great Goddess Isister
「I…I refuse to believe that!! There's no way that cautious hero would fight against the De!! Besides, there is the Chain Destruction!! There is a possibility that Seiya's soul will be destroyed if he fought with the eneht!? That's why…」
