Hey, Mako. Do you remember the first promise you made to me after you became my follower?

　A dazzling smile without a single cloud in sight.
　Both hands on my shoulders, breathlessly close.

　But I didn't have time to be thrilled, and I was giddily conjuring up memories from a year ago.
　The things I was told when I became a believer.
　The first promise.........



　--I won't forgive you if you die, will you?　I'm counting on you!



(No.)
　You're breaking your word.　

Hmm. I think she remembered something.
Yes, yes....
　Master Noah's white hand is placed on my cheek.
　A beautiful, well-formed face approaches and whispers in my ear.

'How dare you go back on your word?　Bad Boy.
　A shiver ran down my spine at the tone of my voice, which was so sweet.

''Huh........''
Bad boys need to be punished, don't they?
　Master Noah's voice, the eyes staring at me, the hand caressing my cheek, everything is gentle.
　It's all so gentle it's frightening.


''You're a power harassment goddess.
'That's how you manipulate your followers...'
As usual, you're applying pressure (pressure) in a way that I'm in love with.
　From behind me, I heard the impressed voices of the Goddess of Water (Eil), the Goddess of Fate (Ila) and the Goddess of the Sun (Altena).

''Hey, out there!　Shut up!
　Lady Noah yells at the Three Goddesses.

'No, I have to tell you something.
　Altena-sama approached me and Noah-sama.

''Noah, this time it was our Holy God (Olympus) tribe's fault, so we specially resurrected Takatsuki Makoto, but the next time he turns into a spirit weapon, we can't miss it, can we?　There's no question about it, it's subject to discard. You can't just say 'be careful'. Let's get some clarification on how to manage Noah's Apostle.
　
　

''I know, Altena.
　'Huh,' sighed Noah-sama, sighing heavily.

'Mako, look me in the eye.
Yes, sir.
　Lady Noah took my cheek between her hands.
　We gaze at each other with the Goddess-sama's deep sea-like eyes.



　--In the name of the goddess Noah, I command the apostle (you)



　He told me solemnly.
　Gulping, he swallowed his spit.

''No full body spiritification!　Absolutely*
　Along with some loose dialogue.
Meh! And then Master Noah's fingers pressed my forehead with a ton of pressure.
　The next moment.

"Haha!
　I felt a crushing sensation as if my whole body was being tightened with an invisible rope.
　No, not just my body, but my mind as well, is assaulted by an intense pain as if a stake had been driven into it.

　Sweat blows out of my entire body and I lose my sense of balance.
　I couldn't stand and put my hands on the ground.
　My eyes flash in front of me and I'm so confused that I forget how to breathe.

　I can't keep my vision straight.
　I felt nauseated and couldn't breathe.
　My whole body felt as if it had been cut on fire.

　...and then gradually calm down.

Master Noah...?
　Breathless, I looked up at Noah-sama standing in front of me for an explanation.
　I unintentionally clutched Noah-sama's leg, wanting something to hold onto.
　Noah-sama's face, looking down at me with a thin smile, was filled with the same compassion as always.

''This is 'divine life.''' Makoto is no longer able to become the 'Spirit King of Water'. Because I commanded Mako's 'spirit' to do so.
　While my mind was still a little confused, I understood.

　This is the divine command that Goddess-sama's 'Messenger' receives.
　........It was intense.
　Never again would I feel the urge to use this previous magic.
　This.................I can't go against it.

''Isn't this enough?　Altena.
Yeah, no problem.
　A short exchange between the goddesses.
　Altena-sama seemed to agree with me.

''To begin with, the 'spirit user' skill that Noah created is broken. Why was it made so that it can be trained without an upper limit? The Holy God Clan (us) set the skill proficiency limit to 100.
Why not?　Why don't you reward them for their hard work?
"Too much power can destroy even the user...
You're so uptight, Ila. You're so young.
　Ila-sama and Noah-sama are bouncing their opinions off each other.
　One of them said something that bothered me.

''Are skills made directly by the Goddess-sama?
　I didn't know.

'Yes. And the more powerful a skill is, the longer it takes to create it. Like, for example, the 'brave man of light' skill takes a thousand years to create.
'A thousand years!'
　I couldn't help but shout out at Altena-sama's words.
　That's why the skill holder never showed up.
　Is it simply because it takes longer to create?

　Princess Noel talked about the theory of blood relation, but this has nothing to do with it....
　Maybe I should teach it to him next time.　
　After hearing that story, I became even more curious.

''Come to think of it, why is the 'Hero of Light' Sakurai-kun?
　A valuable skill that takes a thousand years to create.
　For the sake of it, there are many people who want it, even if they're not from another world, even the locals.

''...........Come on.
　Hmm?
　Altena-sama, who answered everything crisply, slurred her words only here.
　Is there some kind of complicated situation?

''Well, Althena is so dressed up. You simply liked the way you looked, didn't you, Ryousuke?
Hey!　Noah!
'What?　Is that so, Lady Altena?
　This is a shocking fact.

"This guy has been a devil for a long time. Well, Althena's first love was in love with me, but.......ouch!　What are you doing, Althena!
Shut up for goodness sake, Noah!　I'll have to extend your confinement!
'Ha!　Just do it!　A little extra now won't change things!
Yeah, and I want my mouth full.

　Noah-sama and Altena-sama are chasing each other.
　What's this?
　Didn't you say the two of you are not getting along?

Noah and Lady Althena have known each other since childhood.
'What?　Master Eil, is that so?
Noah, the youngest child of the Old Gods, and Althena, the eldest sister of the New Gods, were born at about the same time.
Yeah, well...
　How long ago was it?
　The age........I'm afraid to ask, so I won't.

'In the war a thousand years ago, Noah sided with the evil gods, and that's why Sister Altena sulked. I heard that they hadn't spoken to each other for the last thousand years, but they made up today...
...I see.
　What a long winded story.
　They've been fighting for a thousand years.

　After a while, Noah-sama and Altena-sama, who were out of breath, came back.
　From the middle, the two of them were too fast to see them.
　What kind of speed were they chasing each other........
　I came back this way, Noah-sama told me as if she remembered something.

'Oh, yes, Eil. Give the dagger back to Mako.''
!
　! - Lady Noah's dagger!
　'So Master Eil had it.

Oh, yes. Mako-kun. Here you go.
Oh....
　The blue glowing dagger came back to me.
　Thank goodness I was worried it wouldn't come back.

'By the way, where did Eir-sama pick this up?'
　I have no memory of the fight with the Sun Brave.
　Maybe I dropped it in the middle of a fight.

Hmmm....well, well. It's good, right?
?
　At my question, Eir-sama awkwardly looked away from me.

''Ah, Takatsuki Makoto. It was big sister Eil who stopped you after you defeated Alec.''
　Ila-sama told me instead.
　

　Huh.........?
　But I asked Princess Sophia once if she was 'dead'.
　You beat Alec and now you're dead?
　I wonder what it means.
　As I was twisting my neck, Ila-sama said casually.

"You were turned into a spirit weapon, and your sister was the one who killed you.
"................ ........what?
　I looked twice at Eil-sama in front of me, dressed as a female teacher.
　Ahhh, did they find out?　Eir-sama scratched his cheek with a look like.


I'm sorry, Mako-kun. I'm sorry, Mako-kun.


　Tehe* and sticking out her tongue, Eil-sama was so cute and.......very scary.
　I mean, scary!
　He pulled away.

'Hey, hey!　Don't look at me like that!　You were in the ocean, Mako. And since the goddess of water is under my jurisdiction I had to make a very difficult decision.　I can't believe you have Sophia-chan's boyfriend on your hands!
..........
　Eir-sama closes the distance between us.

'And you brought him back to life right away, so you'll forgive me☆ You're on good terms with me and Mako-kun, right? Uryu-ryu.''
"Well, Master Eil...
　He hugged me in some kind of deceitful way.
　My head is fuzzy as my marshmallow-like breasts are pressed against me.
　Fuu, fluffy.....

'Yes, Mako-kun. Okay, okay~, good boy, good boy.
　Eil-sama strokes her head as if she were petting a young child.
　Her face is nuzzled against Eil-sama's plump chest.

''Yes~ it's mommy~''
　You're not my mom!　I can't even say the word "mommy".
　I can't help it, I'm going to wake up.

"Don't you dare mesmerize me!
　Noah-sama made Eir-sama take a flying kick at him.

　.........Ah, that was close.
　The charm magic doesn't work, but the direct attack was a 'special effect' for me, a virgin.

''Ma~co~t~?''
　I was pulled away from Eir-sama by an angry Noah-sama.
　As it is, he squeezes me.

''Bad boy!　I can't believe you're stretching your nose with another goddess (woman)!
'No, no, no, no, you're wrong...'
　Unlike Eil-sama, Noah-sama's slightly slender but revealing soft skin is........

How can you be so calm after your sister Eil and Noah hugged you...
　Master Ila asked with an astonished look on his face.

'What?　I'm pretty upset about it.
You're doing a pretty good job of talking for all that. Normally I lose my cool more than that.... Alright, I'll do a 'good thing' for you this time as well.
Hey, Ila?
You've never had a woman in your life, have you?　Hmm, thank you. I'll teach you a lesson.
　He came up to me with a rude remark.

"Ila?　What are you talking about?
'Ila, I don't think we should go lightly like that,'
'I don't want my sister Noah and Eil to tell me this, but.... Come on, Takatsuki Makoto. Come over here.
No!　It's my everything!
　Master Noah hugs me like a baby.
　Master Noah the pain.

"Oh, yes. Takatsuki Makoto.
　I was being toyed with by the goddesses, when Altena-sama spoke to me.

About the Sun Brave (Alec) do you want one of your men?

"Huh?
　It was a terrible thing to say.
