" Princess Iris!. Princess Iris where are you?!!! "
From a nearby bush, the figure of a girl with blue eyes and blond hair with a blue lock popped out. Her hair was short and mostly flowing, with the exception of a single braid on the right side of her head; she had a side fringe that covered her right eye
Seeing her coming, Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg was happy and immediately said "Claire I'm here. I'm fine, so don't worry"
Hearing the voice of his beloved princess, he calmed down and then approached the source of the voice, only to see a stranger with the princess. She was immediately on her guard and glared at him as she studied him.
But Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg seeing her attitude, coughed and looked at her seriously, as if to tell her to stop. And so in distrust and frustration, she gave up on getting annoyed with Sora Kami, and so she gracefully introduced herself.
"I'm Claire, Princess Iris' personal guard. Are you??!"
You could hear from her voice that even though she sounded kind, there was a small tone of contempt but she was completely ignored by Sora Kami.
" ...I'm Sora Kami. Since you came, I'm leaving now "
So he greeted Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg and was taken aback, but was then stopped by her.
Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg who moved unconsciously, blushed a little and then said without thinking. "S-Sora Kami, do you want to come to the royal palace with me, it's just to thank you for your help against those beasts"
Claire who knew the princess's personality very well, was very shocked to see her behave like this, and so she immediately wanted to accuse Sora Kami.
Just as he was about to speak, Sora Kami said "I really appreciate your invitation, but I still have a mission to do. Anyway, can you tell me something about the Goddess of Water, what she looks like and where is she currently?"
Claire was surprised by his question, and just as she was about to say something, Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg said uncertainly "do you seek the Sum Goddess Water, for your mission?"
And he who heard, answered without lying or beating about the bush "yes, I'm looking for her because she broke a Heavenly Rule, and for this I have to punish her properly"
This time both Claire and Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg were taken aback. They really didn't expect a Goddess to break the rules of the heavens. But Claire, who hadn't been there a moment before, didn't believe her words and took him back.
"how dare you insult a Goddess. You are just a citizen of the kingdom and you even dare to blaspheme against a Goddess, wait until sooner or later you will be given divine punishment!"
Sora Kami heard her words well, and was very annoyed by her haughty and arrogant tone, so he looked into her eyes and raising his hands, he intended to crack her joints.
But Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg intervened and said "Claire, even if you are my guard and friend, you cannot behave in such a disrespectful way, especially if it is a guest invited by me!"
Claire who was taken up by the person she admired and loved most in the world, suddenly felt that heaven and earth had collapsed as she looked with a blank and powerless gaze at the cause of it all.
Sora Kami who saw his gaze, smiled and calmly said "behave yourself and don't try to belittle another person, or next time there will be no one to save you!"
Hearing her voice, she wanted to fight back and do something to turn the tables, but when she saw her smile, she felt an eerie premonition.
She was sure she wouldn't be able to do anything if he wanted to hurt her, so she lowered her head and looked apologetically at Princess Iris.
With the matter settled, all three spoke to clear each other up and somehow, Claire's demeanor changed and she treated him with respect and guilt.
Sora Kami understood that her personality was very simple, she was born noble and possessed the noble trait, that is, contempt for the plebeians or the weak. But when she learned from the princess of his exploits and that he had helped her kill all the beasts in a snap of her fingers, her perspective was reversed so as to show respect.
Claire trusted Princess Iris a lot, so she believed her words without a shadow of a doubt and so Sora Kami forgave her for her disrespectful tone, and they talked about what he was more interested in at the moment.
Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg looked at Sora Kami seriously and carefully said "I know very well that you are strong, but calling yourself a god or that you have to Punish one... is not that nice to hear for the people of the realm, so avoid the topic in the future.
I can give you indications of the goddess Water and of people who perhaps know more "
Sora Kami nodded and listened without interrupting her, while Claire was curious and at the same time admired Princess Iris with a serious air.
" you must know that there is a religion which, however, is considered more of a cult for its members who all seem crazy, and they venerate it like fanatics, making tourists believe many things they see such as soap you can eat or other strange things.
It's called the Cult of Axis and it's in Arcanletia in a city not far away, and maybe they have a statue of the Water Goddess there and so you can find clues about her as well"
Understanding the information she gave him, Sora Kami was grateful and so said "to thank you for the information you gave me, tell me one of your wishes and I will help you make it come true"
Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg considered it and so began to think seriously, while Claire stood aside and waited for his decision, after all she was only his friend and personal bodyguard.
And so after a few minutes, Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg asked with some little doubt, because she didn't want to be too exaggerated with the requests "I would like to have a skill duel with swords against you, and then I will tell you my wish based on how's it going. Are you okay with my request?"
Sora Kami thought for a moment and nodded in agreement, so Claire judged them both, they got into position. But he stopped and seriously said a few things before starting the game.
" be very careful, because even if I will only use my sword skills. It will be very dangerous "
Hearing his words, she became more serious and nodded.
Claire looked at them and got their confirmation to start the game. So after three seconds, she kicked it off.
" Three... Two... One. GO!"
Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg immediately stood on her guard and then without hesitation charged as she imbued Mana into the sword Calibur. And Sora Kami seeing her moves, only raised a finger which he waved casually at the incoming sword.
"Ding!!!" with a clear sharp sound, it could actually be seen that Iris's Stylish-Sword Belzerg couldn't move Sora Kami's finger an inch
But that didn't end there, as she could sense that the other party wasn't even affected by her blow. Even so, she didn't give up and jumped back to gain distance.
"Sora Kami you are very strong, more than I imagined after seeing your move. But I won't give up!"
So without letting him speak, she reloaded and this time she used one of her strongest skills 'Sacred Explode'.
With the sword calibur, Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg began to charge a large amount of magical power with Mana. She began to see a continuous flow of Mana enter the sword as her body absorbed it.
After a few moments of waiting, a devastating light began to radiate throughout the sword, while the blade itself showed signs of magical formations thanks to the improvement made to it.
Sora Kami was surprised, but let her continue.
Thus having plenty of time, Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg raised her sword and then with a scream, unleashed her full strength to then create a slash of Golden energy that painted the sky and darkened the sun itself.
She who was the source of this change was very shocked, because in the past the power was much weaker, but after the improvement made by Sora Kami it was a real divine weapon.
But seeing the power of the slash, he tried to stop it as he feared it was too strong, but to his surprise and shock, he saw a calm Sora Kami blocking his slash released by his most powerful move with a finger.
Claire who had witnessed it all, was beyond shocked.
Sora Kami smiled and said " you are very strong. But as I said before, it only applies to this world "
Finished speaking, he moved his finger and thus destroyed the slash as if it were paper, while the two girls were surprised by how easy it was to destroy the strongest move.
Finished the battle because Sora Kami was too powerful, Iris Stylish-Sword Belzerg looked at him and finally knew what to want from him, and so she said it without hesitation.
"I want you to become my master!"
