Leaving the guild and confirming the time, it was still 15:30. There was time until dinner. Let’s go to the library and try to investigate a little.
“Finn, because there is time until dinner, I’ll go to the library and try to investigate about the goddess.” (Akane)
“Is it about the goddess Sphere-sama? In relation to Sphere-sama, I also studied reasonably, so I think I’ll be able to teach you.” (Finn)
“I’m truly saved. I want to know about the history of this world. About the goddess Sphere, the Evil King, and the evil god.” (Akane)
“Evil god? You also said that in the occasion of the Lich. Is there an evil god?” (Finn)
“There is. I think the Lich also admitted it. There’s also the fact that I knew the evil god, so I think I was able to grasp it simply. Though, it’ll be nice if there are books that have the events of 4000 years ago mentioned in them in the library.” (Akane)
In actuality, since I myself was an evil god, it seems I was able to grasp the Lich easily.
However, the 4000 years the evil god spoke of, I didn’t know how many years it would be here.¹
“Four thousand years ago! There aren’t old books like that. What I learned in the kingdom was after the outbreak of the Evil King one thousand years ago. Everything before that, it’s said it was destroyed in a fire from a fight at that time. Every kingdom is the same, the oldest books that were stored in the royal palace are things from 1000 years ago. As far as I know, there wasn’t a phrase ‘evil god’.” (Finn)
Was there only books up until 1000 years ago? The phrase ‘evil god’ wouldn’t appear because of that. If that’s the case, I wonder if it was truly 4000 years. Well, it’s fine, the one thing that could be said was that there weren’t any clues suddenly. If it comes to not obtaining the books, then----------the historic ruins?
“If that’s the case, I have no choice but to investigate the historic ruins all over the world later. For the time being, let’s go to the library. I want to investigate it just to be sure.” (Akane)
In the end, there wasn’t a book which was a clue related to the goddess Saria or the evil god. But, I discovered a few things about the goddess Sphere and the Evil King.
1) The goddess Sphere made this parallel world, Spherethalia.
2) The goddess Sphere created a total of 5 races; humans, beastmen, dwarves, elves, and demons.
3) The place Sphere first descended to in this world was Sphereart, and it was the headquarters of Sphereism.
4) The evil tribes and the Evil King sprung forth 1000 years ago. The cause was the war due to the above-mentioned 5 races.
With it being divided loosely, was it such an impression?
With it being thus, I’ll try to ask the Lich in relation to evil god.
I was putting things related to the goddess Saria on hold. Who on earth was she?
However, thanks to this time’s investigation, I had discovered one thing. The one who created the system of skills and statuses, it was the goddess Sphere. Probably, the goddess Saria intervened in the system, and without sufficiently investigating it, gave me that ‘Incompetence’ skill. Even the Wicked Heart medicine, it was made by the evil tribe Urubus originally, but Saria obtained it, and without accurately investigating what kind of effect there was, she used it on me as is. Somehow, it made me angry when I thought back upon it.
In relation to the historic ruins, they weren’t in the outskirts of the royal capital, but if I went to Sphereart in the south, it seemed there were 2 old historic ruins. Well, I would investigate these 2 first. Well, it'd be time before long. Let’s go back to the inn and eat dinner after making plans for from now on.
Arriving at the Possible Roof, we returned to our room for the time being.
“Finn, although I’m planning for from now on, let’s go to Sphereart in the south first. There are two things to do there. The first is to strengthen Finn in the D-class dungeon, and the second is to investigate the historical ruins. As for the extent of what I saw some time ago, it seems the historical ruins are somehow also changing into dungeons, and of the two ruins, the first is C-class, and the other one is a D-class. So, it’s maximum priority to strengthen Finn.” (Akane)
“Uuu, I’m completely a hindrance, sorry.” (Finn)
“What are you saying. That’s only now. From now on, you’ll become steadily stronger.” (Akane)
“Yes, I’ll try my best. Ah, what will you do about the auction 7 days later?” (Finn)
“Aah, although I won’t participate in the auction, I’ll return here once after about 10 days. It’s not a problem since I can use transfer magic. However, it is limited to places I have gone to once.” (Akane)
“Fue~~ transfer magic! Isn’t that magic of legends? It’s just listed in books, how to learn the magic is unknown still.” (Finn)
Transition magic was at the level of legends! Ah, it was because she didn’t know the existence of space-time magic.
“Ah~, that, Finn knows superior magic, right?” (Akane)
“Yes, the 6 of flame, ice, quake, thunder, tempest, and holy.” (Finn)
“There’s also one other than those. There is space-time, which is the superior version of space magic. You should be able to learn space-time magic if your space magic is level 10.” (Akane)
“It’s impossible~. The people who can handle space magic itself are extremely rare. Furthermore, it’s very difficult to raise the level of space magic. Things like 10, it’s almost impossible!” (Finn)
Eeh, was that so! Let’s not use transfer magic in public.
“Un-, understood. It’s great with you saying it to that extent.” (Akane)
“Yes, but I’ll memorize the method to obtain space-time magic.” (Finn)
Well, although there had been various things up until here, I was able to break out from the royal capital at last. I was also able to prepare for camping, and when I go to the guild later tomorrow, I think the people of the Chivalric Order, Claude-san, and possibly Marcus-san would be there, but I wonder whether or not I’d be able to persuade them. If she went to the royal palace or something like that, at best, the nobles in the surroundings would produce an uproar, and there was a possibility of Finn being kidnapped. If I was able to, I wanted to escape without showing my face in the royal palace. Dependant upon the consent or refusal of the persuasion, my actions hereafter would change.
The next morning, we went towards the adventurer’s guild, and went to meet Claude-san.
When we entered the room, Claude-san was deep into talking with Marcus-san as feared.
“Oh, you’ve come? This person is Marcus, the leader of the royal palace’s Chivalric Order. In the olden days, he was a comrade who shared his joys and sorrows as an adventurer together.” (Claude)
“I’m Marcus, the leader of the Chivalric Order.” (Marcus)
“I’m called Sasha. Is it about Finn’s matter?” (Akane)
All right, the disguise was effective. He really didn’t realize.
“I think you’ve heard it to a certain extent from Claude-san, but an evil tribe was involved behind the scenes of this case. If she goes to the royal palace, the surrounding nobles will ask various things, and there is also the possibility that information will be leaked to the evil tribe. When it becomes so, because various company will come to kill Finn hereafter, I will take care of Finn.” (Akane)
For the sake of making it clear that the words I was speaking were serious, I released【Overpower】that was just barely bearable to Marcus-san and Claude-san.
“Gu~, hey, Sasha, please release your Overpower since we understand. Marcus, I think you understand Sasha’s power with this. It is safer to let Sasha guard her than leaving her in the royal palace poorly.
“Haa, indeed, to do this much with only Overpower, it can’t be helped? Sasha, at least give an explanation to me so I am able to consent to it. I have to report it to the King as well.” (Marcus)
Naturally. Let’s tell them the things I know currently. I spoke about everything related to Finn to Marcus-san and Claude-san.
The fact an evil tribe was involved in this time’s case.
The fact the goal of the evil tribe was to kill Finn who held the divine protection of the divine beasts.
As she had divine protection, from the fact that she couldn’t be approached carelessly, Sophia Allenthal was used.
She summoned the Lich with the sacrifices of the beastmen in the slums, and caused the status abnormality.
And just to make sure, she requested the Galum Gang, and separated Finn from the royal capital² to allow her to be kidnapped.
The evil tribe thought Finn was killed by the Galum Gang.
I rescued Finn by subjugating the Galum Gang.
I grasped the Lich, and released her from the curse.
Incidentally, Finn hadn’t been discovered so far because her appearance was changed by the magic tool of disguise.
I wonder if it was a point like this.
It seemed the Lich was conveying it to Rhedenburg already. It seemed to be chaos now.
In order to uncover the evil tribe that was hiding, there was no choice but to convey that Finn was alive. If she found Finn and tried to manipulate me, I wouldn’t obliterate it immediately, but obliterate it after torturing it.
“Hey, Claude, don’t tell anyone about this.” (Marcus)
“Obviously. How could I speak about a serious matter like this!?” (Claude)
“I’ll consent with Sasha. I think you’ve heard about it from Claude, but the matters of the large quantity of missing people in the slums about half a year ago, the missing princess Finn, and the status abnormality were transmitted to countries all over the world from the Rhedenburg Kingdom. As there were no doubts an evil tribe had something to do with it, alerts and search requests appeared. By no means, we hadn’t shown any effort, and with it using Sophia Allenthal’s love, it planned to get rid of princess Finn.³ You were able to grasp that Lich skillfully. The opponent was an S-class.” (Marcus)
“Well, because I wanted to avoid battle to the best of my ability, I threatened it with ‘Overpower’.” (Akane)
“-----Haha, ---’Overpower’? Sasha, who in the world are you? You appeared suddenly and roughly guided the Rhedenburg incident to a resolution.” (Marcus)
Sorry, Marcus-san, I couldn't say the truth.
“I am an ordinary adventurer. Even coming across Finn, it was by sheer chance.” (Akane)
Marcus-san shut his eyes, and thought about it motionlessly. And then---,
“Understood, let’s do it like that. In regards to the King, I will convey this matter to him. Although it has practically been no time after we met, I am able to have trust if it’s you. Probably, the nobles in the surroundings will be fussy, but Claude and I will stop them. Where are you going towards after this?” (Marcus)
“Sphereart. Thereupon, I think I will train Finn. Given that the D-class dungeon here has become off-limits for some reason. My final destination is Rhedenburg.” (Akane)
“I see, but be careful along the way since Rhedenburg is quite far from here. However, because the seal of the Evil King is weakening now, the evil tribes should move actively. Please be plenty careful when you leave to travel.” (Marcus)
As usual, you think about your comrades, huh, Marcus-san.
“Yes, thank you very much.” (Akane)
All right, although it was forcibly, I succeeded in persuading the two people.
After this, I said my thanks to Claude-san as well, and left the adventurer’s guild.
Oh, yeah, although I wanted to say thanks to Lein-san, too, she wasn’t in the royal capital because she was in the middle of accomplishing her request. Well, because I should come back in about 10 days to 2 weeks, I wondered if it was fine if I said it at that time.
Returning to the Possible Roof, I told Gale-san and Kyle-san I was parting from them today.
“Sphereart? It’s still sudden.” (Gale)
“Is Finn also going?” (Kyle)
As I accomplished my goal here, I told them that I was going to investigate because there were historical ruins in Sphereart.
“I see, don’t become lonesome. Leave the new cuisine Sasha made to us. Since I will absolutely propagate it to the royal capital. The support of pudding from the women is especially amazing.” (Gale)
It was fine if the cooking spreads.
“Given that there is an auction 7 days later, it seems, I will come back after about 2 weeks.” (Akane)
“It will take about 4 days with a carriage. Won’t you only be able to stay for about 6 days?” (Gale)
“In relation to that, it’s all right. I have an idea.” (Akane)
It looked like Kyle had also finished saying farewell to Finn.
“Well then, Gale-san, Kyle, it’s been a short time, but I’m indebted.” (Akane)
“Aah, I think it’ll be alright if it’s Sasha. Be that as it may, be careful.” (Gale)
“Finn, if you come back to the royal capital, stay here again.” (Kyle)
“Yup, it is very calming here. When we come back to the royal capital, I’ll come again. See ya.” (Finn)
Now, I was separating from the royal capital at last. I was aiming for Sphereart.
Translator's Notes
¹ - Remember, time passed differently in the space Demogorgon was in. ▲
² - For any of those confused, it means the Rhedenburg Kingdom’s royal capital, not the…..uh…..what was this kingdom called again….ah, the Thelmia Kingdom’s. ▲
³ - Not entirely sure as to what the 2nd bit in this sentence might be talking about. Perhaps they hadn’t shown any results? Idk. ▲
Editor's Notes
Well hope you all enjoyed volume one of Jashin. This was a side project purely for himself and the discord readers (and now something we've officially picked up) started by Unsus much to my dismay, until he bugged me to read it and I totally didn't hooked enough to binge read the entire volume. I'll try to get three more chapters up by tomorrow and then the rest are pretty much upto Unsus as to when he'll do em.
Keep in mind the chapters are mainly proofread for typos aren't exactly rewritten from scratch like MoM (for those wondering C21 should be up soon)
-Upsilon
If you guys notice anything wrong, please let me know!
See you ….perhaps soon?
