The Goddess Is Obsessed With Me - The Goddess Is Obsessed With Me chapter 77

“You’ve worked really hard, Harold, you’re still my favorite seed.”

After completing the mission of apprehending the members of the church, when I returned to Morion-sama and informed the situation, he smiled and praised me.

“I was just doing my job.”

When I say formal words that flow naturally as if I have practiced, I smile even more happily and the rewarding sense of pride is cut into my smile.

“Until you’re humble, you’ve done more than you did.”

As they exchanged such warm words, a good atmosphere flowed, and she handed me a book as if rewarding me.

“It cannot be said that it is a reward worthy of you for making a contribution, but you must show sincerity.

He handed me an old book titled ‘All-Seeing Eyes’ and handed it to me.

“The words are written in a grand way, but don’t expect too much because it’s magic that only sees far away or sees through walls.”

But now, I didn’t know if this was the magic I needed right now, I thought it could be used with caution when searching for members of the cult who hide in the shadows and do not show themselves well.

“Thank you very much. I will use it as useful as it is the magic given by the goddess I serve.”

I bow my head deeply and greet the goddess, and then…

“And Goddess… I have a question for you.”

He takes out a silver pendant from his chest and shows it to Morione-sama.

“Huh…? Yeah… I’ll teach you what I know, what are you so curious about?”

This is something I got while fighting heretics… But this wasn’t just a cosmetic item.

“A moment before I explain… Aris? Come in.”

As if responding to my words, the tent through which the light was flowing was lifted, and a girl with silver hair stood out.

As it was the first goddess she encountered in a serious atmosphere, her steps were stiff and tense, and her lips were trembling.

“Huh?”

Morione-sama also watched Aris slowly approaching us with a slightly curious gaze, and the more she looked at her, the more unusual she felt.

“Nice to meet you, Goddess, my name is Aris, a spirit tribe.”

Actually, before coming here, I had a conversation with Aris between the two of us…

◆◆◆

“What kind of close relationship do you think there is between Arsia and this pendant?”

I gave her some inferences and gave her a bit of a puzzled expression, but I listened to her seriously, as if it wasn’t too bad.

There was only me and Aris in this place, except for Marika, the reason I wanted to talk with only the two of us was her true identity, and she only told me about her true race, so I wanted to hide Aris’s secret as much as possible.

“Yeah… I told you last time, your mother… that Arsia-san’s recent behavior has changed…”

At that, he nodded with a determination mixed with anxiety and apprehension as if he could not predict what I would say next.

“Actually, from what I heard from my goddess, she said that your mother, that is, Arsia-san, had a close relationship with the members of the church.”

It must have been shocking news, but Aris was also vaguely thinking about it.

In the first place, Aris herself mentioned Arsia-san’s abnormal behavior when revealing her identity.

“So, maybe it has something to do with the fact that the members of the denomination we were dealing with earlier had a pendant that acted like your weakness?”

Upon hearing that, Aris seemed to be in serious trouble while stroking her chin with her fingertips.

“Certainly… the process is unknown, but it’s certainly credible, but…”

He seemed to agree with me, but the expression on his face didn’t look very good.

“Is there anyone who can break down this secret? You can’t know the exact situation from this alone… In general, I think that Arsia is on the side of the church members, but in some cases… The reason why she should have been Could it be…?”

Aris, who was not confident but whispered a small whisper as if she had hope, was able to understand her words.

Although there is no biological basis, Arsia-san is like the mother of Aris, so Aris must be saying that in the hope that her mother is not a denomination that is rejected by the world…

“…..”

A person who can uncover the truth…

“Aris…”

I knew very well a person who seemed to have more knowledge than anyone in that field.

◆◆◆

“Hmm… So you’re wondering what secrets are hidden in this pendant?”

We briefly summarize the things we went through and the conversation we had, and handed over the pendant.

“Yes that’s right.”

Morione-sama, who received the pendant, observed it carefully and gently touched it, as if studying the stone.

“Honestly, without using my power, I think I’ll be able to figure out the true nature of it just by feeling it.”

At the same time, he shouted a spell, and the pendant flashes a soft light and presents a rather mysterious sight.

“It’s been a while since the spirits have been around, so it’s old knowledge, but it’s certain, this pendant… It has the same magical properties as that of a woman named Aris.”

The gods seemed to have the ability to detect magical powers just by looking at them.

“The source of the spirits’ life is pure magic itself… So, with this pendant containing that child’s magic, you can create a second heart.”

The fact that he had only been determined to be heartbroken was gradually turning into certainty, and Morione-nim continued to speak bluntly.

“Even in terms of mortals, it wouldn’t be too difficult if you knew how, now this pendant is connected to Aris’ life.”

After all, was this pendant of hers her weakness?

“I brought you a good thing, won’t you entrust this pendant to me? If I can get rid of this weakness and leave only traces of it, I might be able to look into the fate of the past.”

A proposal with no reason to refuse, I was willing to open my mouth to agree with the goddess.

“Please do that now! I want to know what happened to Arsia!”

Before even thinking of a word, Aris cried out in a slightly urgent voice.

“Okay, then I’ll take a look.”

As soon as her permission fell, Morione-sama immediately grabbed the pendant and began to close her eyes.

“ㅡㅡㅡ.. ㅡㅡㅡ!”

Some of them speak so fast that they can’t be heard, as if time is passing by so quickly, but even when they barely recognize them, they mumble in a language that I don’t know.

The pendant lights up again, and dreamy and mysterious phenomena occur around the goddess, and the strange atmosphere quickly circulates.

“Ummm…”

Goddess, who has her eyes closed but is paying attention as if she is looking at something.

“yes?”

However, soon his expression is distorted, creating a sense of tension in Aris.

“What the hell did you see…”

Even just looking at her eyes makes me feel anxious about her appearance, and I waited for Morione-sama to open her eyes with half worried and half anticipation.

“……..”

After a while, you will open your eyes as if you have looked into everything, and the atmosphere that has naturally caused a mysterious wave will also be lifted.

“It seems that the members of the Church are not the only opponents… Because the veil is thickly covered with the magic of the Old Gods, it was hard to see the fate… Still, the magic contained in the pendant was released, so now it’s a normal pendant.”

It’s a big disappointment to come back differently than expected… However, the good news comforts us.

“Is that so… then you don’t know what happened to the principal…”

Perhaps Aris had lost her pulse more than I was, and she wanted to sympathize with her tone different from before.

Perhaps it was an opportunity to find evidence to defend his mother, so it was disappointing.

“I know one thing, though, that the headmaster of the academy is being treated unfairly by them.”

“?!!”

At those words, Aris’ eyes widened and wrinkled, and various emotions swirled over time.

At first, despair and worry faded, but it was short and fleeting, and soon, as if revitalized, the complexion began to gradually brighten, and then a bright smile appeared at the clear hope.

“Thank you, Goddess! Thank you so much!!”

Her body seemed as light as it was about to float, as the waves of emotion were waving with how bullish she was speaking.

and…

“Aris?!”

Then he jumps out of the tent and runs away, giving him a sense of embarrassment.

“Arsia… Go away for a bit!”

She mumbled something before she left, but she didn’t hear it…

“Aris!”

I too follow her out of the tent at least late, but Aris has already gone far away, and just before disappearing into view.

“hang on!”

I tried to dry her by raising her throat, but she had gone so far that she couldn’t be reached, and she had no choice but to pursue her with all her might before she could no longer be seen.
