191 Episode 17: What is Cain?




 
 Everyone was stunned. Even Cain didn't notice until he was approached by Yuya who suddenly appeared.

''Mu, what guy?

 Although Logosia and Lizabeth quickly braced themselves, only Cain's cheeks relaxed.

''Yuya-san!''

 Cain explained to the two people, who relaxed their guard a little bit when Cain's voice told them they must know each other.
 You're not going to be able to get a good idea of what you're looking for.

''It's been a while. I was worried about your reaction to that thing, so I came over and found Cain, so I let you watch.'

 Yuya didn't pay attention to Logsia or Lizabeth, and sat down on the sofa face to face.
 However, Logsia, who is also the Demon Emperor of the Empire, was frustrated that she was not being taken seriously at all.

''Lord Cain, ...... who is this person? As expected, this is the most secure place in the Imperial City. We don't want you to be able to come in easily. ......

 Yuya stared at Logosia for a bit, and her cheeks relaxed.

'Right. Let me introduce myself. My name is Yuya now. 'In this world, would you like me to call myself Yuya Esfort? I'm playing the creator god of a different world now. Nice to meet you.

 Yuya replied comfortably, but both Logosia and Lizabeth froze at her words.

''--Dono Cain, ...... I want to ask you one thing: ...... I heard 'Esfort' and 'Creator God'...' ...
'Ah. That's right. Yuya-san is the first king who was summoned 300 years ago as a brave man and later founded the Esfort Kingdom. I heard that he's now the creator god of the world, Favinil.

"[............]

 Even in Logosia, God is believed in. Although they don't believe in it outwardly, it is knowledge that God exists if you are in the upper echelons of the country.
 The Creator God is the creator of the one world. Even if he is not the Creator of this world, I respect him--no, the Creator God never appears before people.
 And even more than that, it was unbelievable to the two of them that he could appear before them with such a casual wave of his hand.
 Logosia and Lizabeth both rose vigorously from their seats, knelt on the floor and bowed their heads deeply.

''I didn't know you were a creation god ...... sorry for my rudeness. I am Logosia, the Demon Emperor of this generation.
'I'm my sister Lizabeth as well. It's a pleasure to meet you.

 Cain winced at their response.

''I don't think either of you would care about that, Yuya-san: ......
'Cain ....... No, that's a normal reaction. Because you're special.

 It was true that when Cain first met Yuya, he had used the honorific language peculiar to Japanese people due to the familiarity of being the same Japanese, despite the difference between transition and reincarnation, but that was the extent of it.
 In fact, for Cain, who also spoke lightly of Zenom, the creator god of this world, he was more concerned about the same person in this world.
 The two of them were admonished by Yuya to take their seats, but their expressions remained stiff from nervousness.

''Then shall I explain what happened earlier?''

 Yuya began to narrate an event that happened in the past.
 Cain had heard the story once in the past. The two of them listened as if they were biting into the story of the past that was told endlessly. It was the same for Cain, and there were many things he didn't know.

'Well, I guess that's about all I can talk about: ......

 Yuya finished her explanation and slowly leaned back on the sofa.

'Thank you. It was very useful. I didn't think that I would be grateful just to be able to meet the God of Creation, but I didn't know that he would even let me talk to you ....... But still--you and Lord Cain are very old acquaintances, aren't you?

 The relationship between Yuya and Cain is very unlike that of the creator god and ordinary people. You want to tilt your head in the direction of the relationship as if you were an ordinary friend.
 And one answer came to Logosia.

"---- Could it be that ...... Lord Cain is--God? No. Is he a messenger of God?
............

 Cain doesn't have an answer. In fact, his status makes him an apostle of a god, and he himself has already entered the divine realm as a sub-god. However, Cain, who only wanted to spend his time relaxing, had no intention of admitting it.

'Ah, Cain is a special quota. Even so, this guy is already equal to a god.
Yuya-san!

 He wanted to complain to Yuya for speaking so easily, but even the current Cain is an opponent that he can't even get his hands on.
 Hearing Yuya's words, Logosia's gaze on Cain was filled with anticipation.

''After all, Cain-dono is. No, it's better if I don't say this. Let me thank you again. Thank you very much.''

 Cain hugs his cheek as Logosia bows her head deeply.

Well, if you're in trouble, look to Cain. I'm done with my business, so I'm going home. Cain, come visit me at home once in a while.
'Totally ....... I'll come visit you soon.

 Yuya stood up on the spot, left a single word, "See you later," and disappeared from the scene.
 In the reception room with the three of them, Logosia and Lizabeth, who had finally released their tension, sipped on a cup of slightly cooled tea and cleared their throats.

The first thing that comes to mind is the fact that you are an apostle of God. Are you a messenger of God?

 Lizabeth, who had been silent, opened her mouth. Cain didn't know how to explain it, but it was already known that he and Yuya, the creator god, were old acquaintances, and it was known that he wasn't a normal human strength.
 Cain gave Lizabeth a look and nodded lightly in silence.

''Hmph, I see. I see.''

 Lizabeth crossed her arms in front of her chest, smiling and nodding her head several times in agreement.

'Liza. Good for you. No one can complain about Riza's partner, you know. I'll gladly admit it, too.
Thank you, brother.

 Cain tilted his head, not understanding the purpose of their conversation.
