--The little girl in the painting.
A mysterious being who appeared in the painting inside Duke Oyugock's castle and when I was being misled by Dog-head Demon Lord.
Dog-head Demon Lord called her [God Parion], she's shown as [UNKNOWN] like the Demon God's Offshoots on my AR reading.
"Who are you?"
『Me? I'm your princess. You're my hero. We're a happily married couple who walk the eternity together--』
Her clear comfortable voice similar to Lulu almost robs me of my consciousness.
I forgot how she evaded my question and ended up immersing myself in the sound of her words.
"Who are you talking to?"
"--Eh?"
Tactician Touya looks around at the surroundings suspiciously.
It seems the other people can't see her existence.
Since Dog-head demon lord could, she seems to be able to choose who can see her.
"Did you manipulate my--"
She puts her little finger on my mouth midway.
『I only do what you desire. I will be there as you wish. If you cannot remember it, that means it's something the current you don't need. It will be naturally released when you really need it.』
Normally those sounded unbelievable, but for some reason, I felt like believing her without a doubt.
『Are you convinced?』
"--Yea."
I nodded back at the girl.
The smiling little girl's body is becoming transparent.
Right, maybe she knows about it.
"Do you know the reason why God Zaikoun revived faster?"
I asked her that while feeling slightly impatient.
『Reason? Maybe the kids who didn't want the civilization to advance united? Because Divine Punishment can't happen unless all the seven Gods who arrived riding on the world trees assembled.』
--Huh? I felt something odd again.
『Look, my hero.』
A yellow light is spreading at the ground where the little girl pointed at.
That was the place where a demon lord was fighting an apostle.
『A big battle-loving idiot has appeared.』
The yellow light becomes a huge person shape.
I think it's at least 100 meter tall?
The information of the person shape shown on my AR is the same as the little girl's--[UNKNOWN].
The same as the apostle, but it's clearly different.
Warnings from Crisis Perception is alarming enough to tighten my heart even though it's so far apart.
"That's, don't tell me--"
『It is. You can tell the other big idiots over there too.』
The little girl who was looking at the yellow person shape turned at me.
『Tell them, that's the Zaikuon you seek.』
"That's, God Zaikuon?"
"W-what'd you say!"
Tactician Touya heard my muttering.
"What do you want me to do?"
『--Nothing.』
The little girl gently smiles.
Her expression is like a mother, unsuited for her age.
『Do as you like, my hero. Do anything you like anytime you want.』
After saying that, the little girl disappeared in the air.
Her parting words sounded like an invitation from a devil or a dark god, but I felt a deep affection for me in them.
I think that she's probably the one who summoned me to the [Dragon's Valley].
