Infinite Gacha - Chapter 208

"--Lord, that woman, Lilith's rudeness. I foolishly think that I should atone for it with my life."

After the meeting in the "Giant Tower," we moved to the lowest level of the "Abyss," the office.

As I sit down, I see Aoyuki standing in front of me, hiding her eyes with her hoodie, appealing directly to me.

Even Ellie voiced her agreement with her words.

I agree with Aoyuki. That woman, Lilith, is certainly credited with saving the life of Light God's sister, Yume-sama, and she has been rewarded well for that. But you are still treating the Light God (Shinsama) as if he were a tool that can grant you whatever you wish for,....... It is disrespectful to treat the Light God as a handyman!"

undefinedFrom Aoyuki and Ellie's point of view, Lilith's attitude and requests were beyond their patience.

That's why they came to me for a direct appeal.

I turned to the two of them and called out to them.

Both of you calm down. It's true that Lilith has been making a lot of requests lately, but none of them are a big hassle or problem. From our point of view, it's just a margin of error. Besides, her position as the first princess of the human kingdom and her will to save the human race are irreplaceable. I can sympathize with her desire to achieve her ideal with her own hands, even if it means abolishing even her father and giving up her protected position as a princess. I also appreciate her achievement of saving Yume's life. ...... I think Aoyuki and Ellie think they've done enough to repay the debt, but I don't think I've repaid all of it yet. So I think a favor like this is acceptable.

This is my real intention.

Her position - first princess and possible queen of a racial (human) kingdom - cannot be replaced by anyone else.

In addition, she saved the life of her own sister, Yume, and secured her job and safety.

Unlike Aoyuki and the others, we do not think that we have been able to repay them with the level of demands we have made so far.

Of course, I remember to follow up with Aoyuki and Ellie for speaking up.

I understand that they spoke up because they were thinking of me and of the "Natsura. So, if Lilith gets too aggressive and makes excessive requests of us, even if she is the one who saved Yume's life, I will nail her to the wall. If I nail her and she doesn't stop, ...... then and there I will deal with her properly."

I understand that my tone of voice is laced with cold intent, which is conveyed clearly by the change in Aoyuki and Ellie's facial expressions.

They understood that I was not being naive and that I was drawing a firm line in the sand, and they put their words to rest.

'--This, I will do the Lord's will.

Like Aoyuki, I too will follow the will of the Light God (Shin-sama) this time. But if you think Lilith (that woman) has crossed the line, please tell me!　We will take care of it right away!"

He settled the matter, but he did not seem completely convinced, and the air of rebellion against Lilith did not disappear.

Both of them are very loyal to me, and it seems that they have developed no small amount of hostility toward Lilith.

I am glad that they are loyal to me, but it is somewhat troubling at times like this.

(We have to be careful not to let their loyalty run out of control and cause them to quarrel with Lilith or attack her.)

I'm sure there isn't, but not absolutely.

The other party is Yume's benefactor and the first princess of the Kingdom of Humans.

It would be unforgivable to let her die for nothing, and if that were to happen, all the hard work we have done to help her in the future in terms of politics would be in vain.

I made a mental note to be very careful in this area.

--After the direct appeal to the light, Aoyuki and Ellie left the office, but they did not immediately disperse and entered one of the rooms in the lowest level of the "abyss" together.

When the lowest level of the "abyss" was remodeled, many rooms were created.

Since some of them are not in use, like this room, it is a perfect place to have a secret talk if the door is closed and locked with magic to prevent eavesdropping.

Aoyuki and Ellie, who do not get along very well inside the "abyss," have a rare secret talk alone together.

First, Ellie complains.

God of Light is so kind!　Even though he saved my sister Yume-sama's life, I can't believe he would be so merciful to her. ...... Light God's (Shin-sama) kindness pierces the heavens and is too much deeper than the ocean floor!"

Nya~"

Aoyuki makes a voice of agreement in feline language.

But to take advantage of her kindness, that woman Lilith, she's getting carried away!　The Lord Light God has forgiven you, but to treat the Lord Light God as if he were my servant!　That is unforgivable!

"--This time the Lord forgave me. Then you should forgive this time. However, if she continues to treat the Lord in her own way, then ...... she will disappear."

You mean, "...... forgive me this time. She is indeed the first princess of the Human Kingdom, and unlike the current king and her brother, she is ready to get covered in sludge for the future of the Human race. If you think about the future of the human race, it would be more convenient to keep her alive. ......

"--The replacement has already been made by "UR, the second shadow (Double Shadow). Even if you turn it off, there is no problem as long as there is a replacement."

Aoyuki asserts in a cold tone of voice.

There was a hint that if Light had given his permission, he would be on his way to kill Lilith right now.

Ellie nods and agrees.

She lets out a voice sound wet with the same murderous intent as Aoyuki's.

'Yes, sir. But since the Light God (Shin-sama) has denied it, it is strictly forbidden to meddle, right?"

'...... nyah~'

Aoyuki turns away and meows, as if to say that he understands.

Ellie herself shrugs her shoulders as if to say, "I understand how you feel, Aoyuki.

But it's not limited to that if you get permission from the God of Light. If it were normal, I would have killed the Light God (Shinsama) through suffering for the crime of wielding him in accordance with his own desires, but in honor of his achievement in saving his younger sister, Yume-sama, I will kill him with ease.

Nya!"

Aoyuki speaks up, briefly, as if in agreement.

Thereafter, Aoyuki and Ellie changed the topic and began to discuss 'to what extent Lilith is in love with Light.

Unbeknownst to Lilith, she was gaining hate from some of the "NARAKU" members, including Aoyuki and Ellie.
