"Razevara......, what are you up to?

 After morning HR.
 I asked her that.

"Oh.

 She turns around and smiles wickedly.

You're actually happy for me, aren't you?
Me?
Yes, I am. Because you're being ridden by a beautiful woman like me. If you were a boy, you'd love it, wouldn't you?

 What are you talking about?
 What are you talking about? He's always been a prankster god, but now that he's transferred to the Academy of Magic, I feel like he's getting even more prankish.
 By the way, Razevara's still on my lap.
 She shows no signs of letting go.

"Get away from Kurt!
I swear! It's disgraceful!
Even if you're a god, ...... that's illegal. ......

 Lara, Marise, and Cynthia are making a lot of noise around her, trying to get her to leave.
 Cynthia heard the commotion and came all the way from the next class.

"Hmmm, no. Kurt's lap is mine.

 But Rashevara didn't move.
 Lara and the others tried their best to move her, but she didn't budge a muscle.

"Are you using the rise power of body enhancement magic ......?

 It is because of this that the seemingly weak girl, Razevala, is unable to move.
 Even gods can use simple magic.

Magic ...... then!

 I'm not sure what to do.
 At the same time, she also activated her body-enhancing spell, Rise Power.

"Get away from Kurt!
"Oh!

 And then Lazevala, who could not be moved even with leverage, was lifted up in a heap.

You can't do this to me!

 Lara lowered her to the ground.
 Lara dropped to the ground, her hands on her hips and a pouting face.

You surprised me. I'm not a big fan of magic, but I can't believe I lost to someone other than Kurt. ......

 Lazevala looked stunned.

I'm being taught magic by Kurt!
I'm also ......! I'm not sure if I can do this, but Lara did.

 I can do this." Lara puffed out her chest, and Marise hurriedly interrupted her.

"You're ...... too?

 When she saw Marise, Razevara's face became even more surprised.

 --I'm sorry.
 I'm sure Lara and Marise are on to something with their last fight.

 I reincarnated a thousand years later in search of someone stronger than me.
 I've half given up on the idea that there are no such people anymore, but ...... it's not hard to see that these two have it in them.

It's just a matter of time before they catch up with us.

 I mutter.

"Kurt, what did you say?

 Lara notices and asks.

No, ...... I think Lara and Marise are growing faster than I expected. And at this rate, it's only a matter of time before there's nothing left to teach.

 That's my honest opinion.
 I meant it as a compliment.

 But Lara, Maryse, and Cynthia looked at each other in panic.

"Ew! Kurt! What are you talking about?
There's still so much left to learn!
"I don't want Kurt to stop teaching me ...... and I don't want Cynthia to stop teaching me ...... and Cynthia is growing up .......

 I said.

"Haha. You're right. I've still got a lot to teach Lara, Marise and Cynthia.

 As I looked at their faces, I couldn't help but smile.
 I stroked their heads in turn.

"You're still making out with them, aren't you?

 Seeing this, Rashevara's lips puckered up.
 I wondered if there was something she didn't like.

"But still, Razevala. I've heard a few things since we defeated Bagnuva. ...... Can you tell me more about what the gods have in mind?

 I asked.
 When I asked, Rashevara's eyes became serious.

Yes, as I said ......, I don't know the whole story either. I don't know the whole story, but it sounds like it's pretty bad.
"What do you mean?
In the Shinkais, there is a thing called the Old Sacred Treasure.


"Law.

 I'm aware of the existence of sacred weapons.
 Razevala's divine sword is one of them.
 But 'ancient weapons' is something else, apparently.

From the way Razevala talks about them, they sound pretty nasty, don't they?
"Yes. It's just that it's a 10,000-year-old artifact. For us, 10,000 years ago is like a year ago for humans. ...... Still, it's too powerful to be used anymore.
"You mean it's malfunctioning ......?

 Razevala nodded her head in agreement.

 But it's ten thousand years old.
 I hadn't heard that name in a thousand years, but of course.

I don't think Kurt will be able to defeat you once the ancient weapons are activated.
"Huh. Even me?

 I blurt out.

That'll be fun. I'd love to see that ancient artifact in action.
You're smiling so much. You're the only person I know who's happy to hear he can't win.
Really?

 I put my hand over my mouth, and sure enough - I had unconsciously made a smile.
I'm not at all afraid to hear that there might be someone stronger than me.
 On the contrary, I'm excited about a weapon I haven't seen yet.

What do you mean Kurt can't win?
"Well, we've had plenty of enemies who've said that before. It's a little late for that.
Kurt can defeat ...... one of those things in one shot.

 Lara is upset, while Marise remains calm. Cynthia puffed out her cheeks in frustration.

So, ...... as the story goes, the ancient artifacts hold the key to this "bad thing"?
Yes. It's a long story, but yes.

 Then Lazevala suddenly clapped his hands as if something occurred to him.

Kurt, you want to see the ancient artifacts, don't you?
"Yes, of course.

 Even though it's broken, it's still a sacred object.
 There is no reason not to be interested in it.

Would you like to see it?
"What?

 When I asked back, Rashevara put her finger on her mouth and continued.

"I'm inviting you to the Divine Realm.
