(Harukin's POV)
Another three days has passed, in the middle of Magnolia southgate park, Erza and I are training our swordsmanship by swinging repeatedly the big wooden sword.
"9994! 9995! 9996! 9997."
Both of us shouted, swinging our sword.
"9998! 9999! 10 000!!"
Suddenly, I stopped, leaning the big wooden sword on my shoulders.
"Erza, we should stop for now and rest." I said.
"But Harukin, I can still go on--"
"No! It's already lunch time. We should rest for now and eat."
"Okay then..."
We walked towards the giant tree at the center of park and sat down together under.
I placed my palm on my forehead.
*Sigh*
I sighed.
With our progression, it will take a very long time before I can go back home on my world.
In the first place, this kind of training is totally futile, it won't make Erza learn how to use her magic early.
I don't know how can I awaken her magic faster.
"Ahhh! What I'm going to do?!"
"Ummm... Harukin, are you okay?" Erza asked worriedly.
"No, I'm alright, Erza. I'm just doing some deep thinking."
"Actually, Harukin. If something is troubling you, don't think twice to ask for my help, okay?"
Oh, what a good girl.
I gave her a thumbs up and said,
"Okay, Erza. I will rely on you if something arises."
She just smiled on my response.
Suddenly,
"Harukin! Are you there?"
I heard Paimon shouting behind us.
I glanced at her from behind the tree,
"What is it, Paimon? And where's Krul?"
"Krul is sleeping lazily at Grandpa Rob's old house after eating a lot of food she bought from the streets... I have something important things to say to you, right now."
That girl... slowly becoming a slob.
"I'll hear it then..."
"No, we have to talk in private." Paimon said while glancing at Erza.
I stood up,
"Okay."
I took a lunch box and water bottle from my dimensional storage then gave it to Erza,
"Here, Erza. Go ahead and eat first, I have something to talk about with Paimon."
"Yes..." Erza responded.
I walked far enough for not anyone to hear our conversation.
Paimon who's floating went in front of me
"It's regarding about your friend system forcing you to be transported into another world without you being noticed." she said.
"What do you mean?"
"I think, it's better for you should hear it from Gaia-sama herself."
"Earth-chan? How?"
I was confused.
Paimon went towards me and placed her right palm on my forehead,
"What are you doing, Paimon?"
"Gaia-sama wanted you to meet someone. The one who caused this trouble that you're having in your system... I'm telling you right now, even you finished the quest in progress on your system, another quest will just popped out and you'll have no choice but be transported to another world again... And it will happen over and over again until you realized that there's no end to it."
"Why? What did I do to deserve this?!" I said, surprised from I heard from her.
"Your friend system shouldn't popped out with a quest and automatically transported you forcefully while you're not aware it or you're sleeping, it should just have same function as social media from the world you came from in your past life, where you meet new friends from another world. But, due to some Goddess complaining about you, Gaia-sama has no choice but temporarily banned you from the world you're living by forcefully sending you to world to another world with a quest repeatedly.
"Ugh... then what about Wiz and everyone?"
"Don't worry, Harukin. One day here or on any world that you've been transported is equivalent to one day from the world you came from. And about Wiz, I already told her to go ahead and wait for us on her shop."
"Wait a minute, who was the goddess that complaining about me?"
"You will have a meeting right now with the goddess who complained about you so be sure to reconcile with her. Don't worry, Gaia-sama will be by your side. I'm gonna send you now..."
Suddenly, a light shrouded my eyesight.
Everything turned blank.
When my consciousness returned, I slowly opened my eyes.
I saw Earth-chan standing, staring down at me while I'm lying on the ground.
She still wearing the same school uniform.
"Ummm... Earth-chan? If you stood this close to me, I can see clearly your undėrwėȧr right now."
"Oh, then look at it to your hearts content." she said with a smile.
(Her expression<<<)
...
Looking around, I saw that I returned in the beautiful forest where this goddess lives.
I stood up and shook the dirt on my clothes.
"Huh?"
I noticed that I became tall and the clothes that I'm wearing is different.
I was wearing a elite school uniform with a white coat, black necktie, black pants and black shoes.
This was my uniform when I was in middle school in my past life.
Earth-chan summoned a rectangular mirror in her hands, facing it towards me.
I saw my face on the mirror.
Platinum-blonde hair and piercing blue eyes.
(Appearance<<<)
"Did you miss you old appearance?" Earth-chan said.
"Yes..."
I was surprised, seeing my old self.
"Now, for the main subject..."
Earth-chan made the mirror on her hands disappeared.
*Clap!*
She clapped her hand once and everything around is turned dark.
I looked around,
I noticed that we're teleported to a dark room, but this place looks very familiar to me.
"Let's sit there together and wait for them to arrive here."
Earth-chan pointed at the two glowing white sofa facing each other with a beautiful glass table between them.
We sat together on a couch.
Few minutes later,
Suddenly, a beautiful winged woman with golden orange hair appeared out of nowhere.
In other words, she was an angel.
She was carrying a tray with a tea set on it.
"I apologize for the wait, Great Goddess, Gaia-sama. Eris-sama and Aqua-sama will appear here shortly."
She said while bowing to Earth-chan.
Earth-chan nodded at her.
Eris and Aqua? Who's in this two goddess in complaining on me.
"Here... Have some tea first."
She placed the teacups in front us on the table and poured some tea on it.
Earth-chan and I took a sip on it.
"Hmmm... It really taste good and very relaxing."
"Thank you." She replied, winking at me.
"So, you're the one who made it and prepared for us. It's really good, can you teach me how you make it?" I said and asked with a smile.
She blushed a little then she answered,
"Sure... Next time, if we meet again."
Earth-chan hit my head with the edge of her hand.
"Ouch! That hurts."
"Stop messing around, Arata. We're going have a meeting after a short while."
Suddenly, a light appeared above us and two beautiful girls descended.
It was Goddess of Fortune, Eris and the other one is Useless Goddess of Water, Aqua.
Eris is a beautiful girl with long silvery hair and purple eyes, she's wearing a purple one-piece hagoromo dress with yellow trimmings which goes slightly passed her knees. She also wears purple shoes and white stockings, as well as a necklace with a pink diamond-shaped jewel in its center.
While Useless Goddess, Aqua has a blue waist-long hair that is partially tied into a loop with a water-molecule shaped clip, and blue eyes. She was wearing a blue ordinary attire consisting of a vest, detached sleeves, thɨġh-high boots, an extremely short miniskirt, and a transparent underskirt. She also wears a translucent pink hagoromo floating around her neck and arm.
"Can I return now my reincarnator in your world." Earth-chan spoke.
"It's okay for me, but..." Eris glanced at Aqua.
"I refuse!" Aqua answered.
"So, it was you!" I pointed at Useless Goddess, Aqua with angry expression.
(To be continued.)
(I think I made it too deep. I'll fix later after work. The title I put is just my troll.)
Useless Goddess, Aqua.
Goddess Eris.
