-- throbbing, and a pain shot through his arm.

　At that moment, there was a flash of lightning and a roar of thunder.
　When I looked up at the sky, there was no sign of the clear skies we had just seen, and a thick cloud covered the sky.
　The color of those clouds seemed to be getting darker and darker.

''Oh, Mako.......did that?''
Takatsuki-kun, the weather has changed...
　Lucy and Sa-san's voices reached my ears, but I was just too busy controlling the magic gathering in my right arm to reply.

　With a pop, something fell on my cheek.
　A drop of water?
　Shortly thereafter, a downpour that looked like a bucket tipped over came down.

'Hee!' Oh, my God.
　I hear Sa-san and Lucy scream.

'Lord Brave!　That one!
　An execution knight person pointed to the sky.
　When he looked at it for a bit, there were hundreds of water magic and water dragons swimming in the sky.
　The water dragons were swimming up through the waterfall-like rain.

(.........That was me?)
　The magic is going haywire.
　I-I have to stop it.

The "clear water" skill.
　I need to clear my mind of all distractions and concentrate on the details.
　But it's not working.
　Why not?

　What comes to mind is a conversation I had with Noah-sama and his friends a few days ago.



　In a dream a few days ago.



I'm going to try to 'change' my spirit.
　In my dream, I told Noah-sama and Eir-sama my thoughts.
''....What?''
　The two beautiful goddesses collectively popped their big mouths open.

''Oh, you idiot!
　Master Noah slapped me on the head.
'Are you stupid?　Do you want to die?
　Master Eil, you're not talking.

'Ummm, no?'
　I scratched my head.
　It is said that Rosalie, the Red Lotus Witch, wears a spirit, but I, with my low status, can't imitate her.
　Then it's more of an idea to make the spirit itself.
　I thought it was a good idea, though.

You can't. I'm sure that's a typical example of a greedy person who wants to gain power by having fun.　In the first place, if you're going to turn into a spirit, your proficiency level in human terms should be close to 300.......ah, that?
Unfortunately, Mako's proficiency level should be close to 300 by now.
Oh, my God, you can do it!
　At Eil-sama's words, Noah-sama interjects.

''Does that mean...?
　It can be done.

I can't!　There are plenty of people who have tried to get that kind of personal power in the past and failed. Mako-kun is dying!　Little Sophia is going to cry!　I won't allow it!
　Eir-sama is only going to keep the opposite position.
　Noah-sama folded her arms and made a difficult face.
　I stared at the face of the goddess I believe in.

''Mako, if you're going to change into a 'spirit', make sure that you can handle the 'Clearing Water' skill perfectly.
'Noah!'
　Noah-sama announced quietly, folding his arms.
　Eil-sama raises an accusing voice.

''Does that mean........that you have to handle the 'Clear Water' skill at 100%?'''
　But I learned in the Water Temple that tranquilizing skills like the 'Calm' skill and the 'Clear Water' skill have a maximum value of 99%.......
　Is 100% possible?

'Humans are angry, sad and joyful. We are imperfect beings whose emotions are uncontrollable. That's why tranquilizing skills are at their highest value of 99% is the right way to go. It's the philosophy of the Holy Goddess Church of the Holy Tribe. Ostensibly.
　Master Noah announced quietly.
'You're not supposed to ... say that.
　Eil-sama is reluctant.

'Master Eil, is it really possible to be 100%?'
I can do it. I can, but are you sure about this, Noah?　You risk losing your emotions if you overuse your tranquilizing skills, okay?
　In response to my question, Eil-sama has a dissatisfied look on her face.

It's a good idea. But if you can't control your emotions and change into a spirit without being able to control your emotions, a natural disaster is sure to happen.
Well, yeah...
　The two goddesses look at each other in distress.

''Alright, then I'll master the 'Clearing Water' skill first.'''
　I told the two goddesses emphatically.

'If you can, I hope you'll hold off.
There's no point, Eil. She won't listen to me at the end.
Are you a believer?　Really, Noah's followers are a bunch of quirky kids.
You're annoying. Your children are too weak.
'It's okay - I'm a pacifist, I'm weak...'

　The two goddesses are arguing with each other about their followers.
　Anyway, did I get a compliment?

It wasn't a compliment.
　Didn't I?

''Makoto, you shouldn't try to turn into a spirit unless something bad happens. It will probably fail.
I'd rather not try it in the first place, but...
　The two goddesses advised me.



◇



　.... the pain in my arm won't stop.

　The weather is getting rougher and rougher and shows no signs of letting up.
　The rain is pounding down and water dragons are rampaging everywhere.

(Why ... it's totally out of control.)

　Until now, I had the feeling that I could handle any water magic method.
　But not this time.
　It's as if he doesn't listen to me.

　Was Noah-sama and Eir-sama right?
　Was this too much for me to handle?
　Then at least I'll be able to keep them out of the way.

(d*mn it, listen to me!)
　For a moment, my mind boggled with annoyance.
　Oh, shit.
My 'Clear Water' skill isn't at 100% anymore...
　In that moment.



　-- Suddenly, darkness enveloped me.




(Huh?)
　I look to the left and right.

　I couldn't see anything.

　It was complete darkness.

　Darkness stretched out underneath my feet and everywhere else.

　When I looked up, the only light I could see was the light.
　A shimmering light, shimmering like the surface of the water, shining down on us.

(My body doesn't move ... it's sinking.)

　I couldn't move a single finger.
　The light above me was slowly getting smaller and farther away, and I found myself falling down.

　I know it's going to be bad if I keep going, but there's nothing I can do about it.
　I can't feel the urgency of the situation.
　I can't help it.

　My body is falling, deeper and deeper.
　It's no good, I can't move.
　Is this it...?　　




What are you doing, Makoto?




　That's when someone grabbed my right hand.

(Huh?)
　Unable to raise my voice, I was pulled back to the surface of the water, above the light, all at once.
　My eyes went blank.

　The next thing I knew, I was back at the top of the amphitheater (coliseum) where I came from.

　But it's strange.

　There is no sound.
　A wizard was shooting magic at the comet.
　The noise of people running away from the comet.
　Above all, countless polka dots are floating in the air, as if the rain that had been pouring down has been fixed in the air.

　The city remains unchanged, but the world is silent as if time has stopped.　


It's no good at all. You're not handling the spirits very well.


　A familiar voice came from right next to me.
　Flowing silver hair and deep blue eyes.
　Glowing white skin.
　There was a beautiful woman standing next to me, whose beauty cannot be expressed in words.

''Of, Noah-sama?''
　The amphitheater in the Land of Fire.
　Despite not being in a dream, Master Noah was there.

(Noah!　Hurry up!　(Because you can only fool them for a moment.)
　Eil-sama's voice echoed from inside my head.
　Eil-sama is the same as usual.

'Yes, yes, I know. I wonder how long it's been since I've been on earth.
　Noah-sama is smiling at me with a funny smile.
　The air trembled in response to his voice.
　I couldn't see it, but I thought the spirit of the wind must be happy.

''Um ... how did you get here?''
　I asked the fearful goddess.

'I asked Ail to bring me up to earth for a hundredth of a second. It's distorting the space around me and Mako, slowing down time, but we can't stay too long.
What...?
　Plain and simple, he said something outrageous.
　Manipulating time?

Here, Makoto. You're going to do something about it, right?
　Master Noah indicated the front with a slender finger.
''Ugh, wow...''
　The comet is already just before it falls this way.
　A chunk of it, much larger than Great Keith Castle, is coming up very close and making an odd presence.

''Can't Noah-sama do something about it?''
'No, you can't do that, God shouldn't be directly involved in human destiny.
　I think I heard something like that a long time ago.

I don't have time for a lecture.
　Saying that, Master Noah gently touched my right hand.
　The area touched had heat as if it boiled for a moment.　

'Okay?　Mako.
　Master Noah's pleasant voice reaches my ears.

'If you're going to be turned into a spirit, get rid of the idea of controlling it. The only thing you need to do is to imagine that you want to do it. The trick is to have a sense of control. Well, for example...
　Master Noah put a finger to his chin as if to think for a moment.
　Then he looked up at the sky as if he had an idea.


'Clear.'

　At that moment, the thick clouds that had covered the sky dissipated and the sun reappeared.
　In an instant, the weather changed.

　At the same time, the atmosphere and the earth.
　All the magic in the world surged with a great surge of joy.
　It was as if the world itself was mesmerized.

'Well?'
I'm sorry to say...
　I was at a loss for words when I saw Noah-sama smiling at me.
　I couldn't understand anything.
　I didn't need a spell, a magic circle, or anything else.
　I just wished for it and it came true.

　This is God's magic........

(Noah!　(I can't take it anymore!)
'Yeah, already?　I don't have a choice. So, Makoto. Good luck.
Yes, sir.
　Master Noah smiled with a snicker and disappeared into the light.

　At that moment, a downpour of rain and the strong sunshine of the sun came at the same time.

''Mako!''
Takatsuki-kun!
　I can hear Lucy and Mr. Saasan screaming.
　It's not much longer until the comet hits.

We're gonna be okay.
　I called out to the two of them and turned to the comet.

　I didn't understand Master Noah's magic.
　Maybe that thing is impossible for humans to understand.
　But I was able to experience it, right in front of me.

　I'm going to imitate the magic of Noah-sama right next to him.
　That's all you need to know.
　But I can't help but cower when I see a comet like a huge wall looming in front of me.

(Then.........)

　I used the viewpoint switch in the 'RPG Player' skill and changed the viewpoint to the one from above whenever possible.
　I can see the entire city of King's Landing.
　I can see the city of King's Landing, which looks like a box garden.
　And a huge comet falling to the capital.

　I watched it as if it were someone else's business - as if I were looking at the ground from the sky (Kami-sama's).
　Okay, let's do it.

"Spirit, spirit, spirit!

　I call out as gently as I did the first time I used spirit magic.
　Now, it might feel a little strange because a part of my body is also a spirit.
　The comet is falling at a tremendous speed.

　But from my current perspective, it looked like a softball falling on a diorama.
　Oh, this is nothing to worry about.


　--The right hand of the genie, grab it and


　A giant comet, enough to cover the entire city, a block of ice

　Nanika, in the shape of a hand even larger than the comet, gently grabbed it.

　The comet stopped just before destroying the royal city.

　King's Landing was saved.
