I still can't get rid of the thought of it, as I didn't expect that I would get a kiss like that.
"Are you blushing?" Goddess Enous teases me.
I wanted to deny that but there's no way I could do it. As I do realize that I'm indeed blushing. But who wouldn't… to get a sudden kiss like that.
"Of course I am! I never experienced something like that before… that was my first kiss. I was saving it for the one that I love." I said that.
Goddess Enous then said, "Oh! Sorry then, just so you know. That was my first kiss as well…"
"Really? Someone as beautiful as you never had a first kiss… that sounds a bit fishy."
"It's fine if you don't believe it, but just look around you. There's no one here plus I'm a deity, I couldn't simply give my kiss to anyone like that." The goddess said that towards me.
Well, she does have a point there. There's indeed no one here as this place was empty as heck… with no scenery and a single person here at all. Plus I know that she might not even want to do that but to give me the power of White Arts, Goddess Enous had to do that…
Realizing that it's kinda my fault, I felt somewhat guilty stealing her first kiss as well.
"I'm sorry as well… I didn't know that it was your first kiss." I said that.
Goddess Enous then smiles, "Well I guess that makes us even then… So how about we drop this subject as I think it's time for me to ask you a question regarding yourself."
"It's part of the bargain, so what do you want to know about me?"
"First of all, who are you…"
The moment Goddess Enous asked me that question, I realized that I never really introduced myself to her at all. Maybe I should start from there…
"The name is Ren Shizumu, I'm human by all means but I am not from this world at all…" I said that.
"I sense that was the case already, but you're certainly different from the other people that have been summoned here before."
"Wait! Are you saying that other people are from the same world as me…"
"There are but I doubt all of them are from the same world as you coming from, as you probably know already that a different world exists… but enough about that, as your case isn't the same as them at all." Goddess Enous said that.
"My case isn't the same? What do you mean by that…"
"They were summoned by mages to become heroes of the world of sage but you aren't right… I could tell that and that's why I'm saying your case ain't the same as the one that has been summoned here before."
"I see but how did I get transmigrated into this world then?" I said that.
"That I had no idea of, as the only known way to summon people from another world is using the mage's spell, but that's part of the god's magic as well. If not, they can't summon anyone if I don't permit them."
"So you're the one that chooses the hero?"
"I only permit the summoning to be done… The act of choosing people is done by random and I don't hold power on that." Goddess Enous then paused for a bit as she said, "Hey! We aren't supposed to be discussing this, as there's more you didn't tell me about yourself yet…"
"Oh! Sorry about that-"
With that being said, I then gave Goddess Enous a thorough explanation about who I really am and how I ended up in the World of Saga. As Goddess Enous might have some idea what happened to me because it's kinda weird for me to be chosen… as I have no quality of a hero at all.
.
"Hmm…"
"So? Are you able to figure out what happened to me…" I asked Goddess Enous as I wanted to know the answer.
"Nope, I had no idea at all what's happening to you. I would say that this a rare case or should I say the first one that I ever dealt with…" Goddess Enous said that.
"Really?... There is no similar case like me at all."
"I'm sure of it but not to worry, as I'm sure to unravel this mystery soon enough… You on the other hand need to help me as well, as I believe you might find something back in the World of Saga."
"Isn't that kind of a hassle, how do I even contact you. You're in this realm and I was back on the world already."
"You're right about that, sending you back to the world will mean that I will have no way to contact you anymore. Which kind of a problem…"
Because I didn't really believe in what Goddess Enous said that this was the first that ever happened, I decided to ask her that question again.
"But are you sure that you don't know anything about it? As there might be other deities that summon me here…"
"Well there are other deities but I doubt they hold the power of summoning a person from another world. As only the supreme one, that's me of course had the power to do so. So no other deities would be able to do so…" Goddess Enous said that.
So even Goddess Enous couldn't figure out why I was being summoned here at all or who's the one that does that.
Well, if I can, I wish to go back to my original world but I can't… at least not until I know what happened to Riku. I feel like it's my fault if Riku was dead as I couldn't provide her the support she needed.
If Riku was still alive, then I would feel relieved… If it was the opposite, I guess the only possible thing to do left was to kill the demons.
