721-Summer extra edition "One night and two days! A trip to the sea star (with Eden)" ③






 How should I describe that feeling? It's not enough to send chills down my spine. It was as if my entire back was frozen................a painful chill even.
 Turning fearfully towards the source of it I went completely rigid.

'Oh my sweetie. My sweet child I want to love you, yippee! I want to make love to you....

 A frog staring at a snake would indicate this kind of situation. In just a few moments, Eden-san's condition had changed rapidly.
 Her mouth had an arc of a smile that was so maddening that I wondered if she could really have such a crazy smile, and the highlights had completely disappeared from her eyes.

''Haha~ I'm glad that my child has spoiled me a lot. After all, my child is happy to be with me too, isn't it?
Ede...n...n...sir?
'I want ... all of my child, all of my love. Yes, yes, yes! That's what makes me happy, even for my own children! Hmmm, hmmm.
What?

 
 It was impossible, I thought, but... no way, really... there was still a top!

Come on, my darling boy. I will love her a lot, a lot, a lot. I will hug my sweet, sweet baby so much. I will clean you up and give you a good body and everything. That's right! I'm going to lick you all over and get you clean. Don't worry, I'm God, there's no such thing as germs, I can really clean you up all over, all over!
....

 It's not the overwhelmingly long dialogue like it usually is, but the insanity that's contained in it is nothing compared to the usual. I mean, the broken-down smile is just too scary!

Hey? My darling child.
'Hi, hi!
Why are you... "Backing off"?
Huh?
'Oh, I see - you're rushing me. My child is already so naughty... Hmmm, I know! You know, like chasing each other on the beach! That's what my child wants to do!
No, no, that's not-- What?

 No, it's too scary! My whole body, my instinct, is screaming at me to get away from this place, but my body can't move too terrifyingly.
 With a large amount of cold sweat running down my face, a flash of black light shimmered between my eyes and a large cloud of dust rose.

 

''........Why? You're interrupting me?
'Hey, hey, Kite! What's the situation here, the Earth God is far more dead than usual!
I'd like to know how it happened to me too.

 Black, who seemed to have sensed the abnormality and rushed over, also seemed to be surprised by Eden-san's condition. Eden-san remained silent for a while, then let go of his fist and let out a voice that sounded like it came from the depths of hell.

''.........interrupt me, huh? The meeting between me and my child...
'Anyway, can you calm down a bit more? If we don't, we're not going to be able to talk...
'Get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way, get out of the way, all of you who stand in the way of my child and me! "I'm going to be erased from this world!
Geez...

 Immediately after Eden-san avoided it with a voice tinged with madness, Black moved his hand and a jet-black dome appeared to envelop the two of them.
 Immediately after that, the entire planet shook with a roar.










 How long did it take for it to shake like a great earthquake... and then the dome disappeared, revealing the two of them... both of them falling at the same time.

''Black! Are you okay?!

 Half of Black's body was like a black mist, and intuitively he ran over to her, sensing that she didn't have enough strength left to maintain her usual form.

''Uh....yeah.

 With a voice that shows a great deal of fatigue, Black announced this and raised his body while slowly regenerating it.

But this time it's not so much that they wanted to kill you, it's that they didn't dodge my attacks at all, they just attacked and attacked while regenerating their bodies at super speed, so it was really close. Nah.
Oh, yeah, thanks.
Ha-ha, you're welcome.

 

''........For once, I thank you, half of God. I just couldn't help but let my reasoning fly with the love of my child.................It's my fault.
Yeah.
'Naturally. Excessive love is a heavy thing ... if it is not expressed in moderation, it will frighten my child.
「「……」」

 エデンさんがこともなげに告げた言葉に、俺とクロは無言で顔を見合わせた。適度ってなんだったっけ? 神様の世界では違う意味なのかな?
 しかしどうやら普段自重しているとうのも、今回のことが意図したものでは無いというのも本当らしく、エデンさんは仇敵とばかりに嫌っているはずのクロに素直に頭を下げて謝罪していた。

「我が子も怖がらせて申し訳ありません」
「あ、い、いえ、実際になにかされたわけではないので……というか、先ほどの喋り方が素なんですか?」
「返答が難しいですね。ですが、そうですね……あの口調の時は『冷静ではない状態』と思っていただけで結構です。我が子の意思を無視して己の欲望を優先しかねないので、ああなった場合は神の半身かシャローヴァナルを呼んでください」

 エデンさんが普段冷静であるかどうかはさておいて、どうやらあの状態はエデンさんとしては本意ではないらしい。
 というか、あの状態を見たからなのか……いちおう普段はぶっ飛んでいても俺の意思は尊重してくれるし、編んだかんだでまともな風に思えてしまう。

 ま、まぁ、ともあれ……エデンさんの新しい面、というか恐ろしすぎる面を見ることになってしまったが……なんとか無事に終われてよかった。
 ただひとつ……エデンさんが『あの状態になったら~』と、今後も俺があの恐ろしい姿と対面することを前提に話しているのが、あまりにも不安である。
