1024 - White God Festival, Evening ⑥

After the encounter with Gaia-san, we went around some places with Sky-san’s guidance, and after seeing the time, I parted ways with others.

My appointment with Shiro-san was at 6 o’ clock in the evening, but Fate-san mentioned Chronois-san and the others had some business with me, so they wanted me to visit them 15 minutes before I head towards Shiro-san.

Thus, I’m going to use Teleportation Magic to move towards the upper-level. If I want to head straight to the Sanctuary, Shiro-san can just call me and I will go back home and use the Teleportation Gate over there.

Well, since I’m going through the upper-level this time anyway, I’ll just use the Teleportation Circle they’ve set up in one of the Supreme God’s temples to teleport to the Sanctuary.

I didn’t have a specific temple in mind, so I started out by heading to Fate-san’s temple, which I had been used to visiting. Fate-san was basically in charge of supervising this festival, while Chronois-san and Life-san were in charge of the direct execution, so she had more free hands than the two of them.

Walking down the corridor of the temple, which I’m quite familiar with, I lightly knocked on the huge door at the far end, which noiselessly opened. Inside the room, I found Fate-san lying on a floating cushion as usual, and upon seeing me…… Fate-san curiously tilted her head.

[Arehh? Kai-chan? You came already? It’s not even 5 o’ clock yet……]

Indeed, I still have more than an hour before the time designated by Fate-san. In fact, I parted ways with others and came here rather early.

That was because I had an objective in mind…… No, it’s not like it’s that important of an objective but……

[No, I heard that Fate-san is rather free so……]

[Eh? Unnn, I’m just supervising the festival, and with how God of Space and Time and God of Life is now, there’s very little I need to pay attention to. I’m able to slack off as much as I want.]

[Yes, so I thought that if I came early, I could spend some time with Fate-san…… I also bought some snacks from a street vendor on the way here.]

[Whoeehh? Eh? Ah, that’s what you……]

The reason why I came here early was simply that I wanted to talk to my lover, Fate-san, a little more leisurely.

I had enjoyed the festival enough so far, and I thought it would be nice to take a break and have some relaxing chat.

Of course, if Fate-san had been busy, I was just going to go back again……

Fate-san looked puzzled when she heard my words, but she then beckoned me over with a happy smile on her face.

[Kai-chan, come here a bit closer.]

[Closer? Around here?]

[A little closer, maybe two more steps forward.]

[……Two more steps———- [Oryaaahh!] ————- Whoaaa!]

As soon as I approached her, she suddenly grabbed my hand and forcefully pulled me towards her. Of course, there’s no way that my strength is enough to compete against Fate-san, a Supreme God, and thus my body fell as I am pulled.

Thereupon, my body was caught by the floating cushion Fate-san was riding, and as I felt something soft, my body dived into the cushion.

While I was confused by the sudden situation, I also thought that it was a new experience to dive face-first into a floating cushion, and that it was absurdly soft because it was a bead cushion.

""

However, these thoughts were immediately pushed away when I suddenly felt Fate-san hugging me tightly as I laid down.

[F- Fate-san!?]

[Geez, Kai-chan really is unfair, always making me happy like that.]

[N- No, that aside, what the heck is with this situation?]

[Come on, isn’t it fine? Let’s lie down and slack off together.]

[Eh? Ah, so that’s what this is…… I was wondering what was going on all of a sudden.]

It seems like it wasn’t just my imagination that the size of her cushion increased, and there certainly is room for both Fate-san and I to lie down together.

Holding my arm in her embrace, Fate-san got a very happy expression on her face…… Being in our position though, with my arm buried in her voluptuous breasts, I feel rather distracted and a little embarrassed.

Fate-san seemed genuinely happy that I had come early to spend time with her though, as she had an innocent smile on her face.

……Well, I guess laying down like this is also good? I mean, this is the first time I’ve experienced lying down on a floating cushion…… but it sure is comfortable to sleep on.

As I feel like I’m laying on a cloud, I think I could understand why Fate-san feels languid while riding this.

[Speaking of which, which places have you visited, Kai-chan?]

""

[Errr, in the lower-level……]

Thinking that Fate-san was really cute as she talked to me, looking really happy, I told her about the events I attended in the White God Festival in order.

Serious-senpai : [……That’s right! You stand before the Absolute Two-time Champion!]

? ? ? : [No, well, I suppose you really are. Senpai really would be the champion in the Afterword section…… Well, that’s also why you can’t enter the Popularity Poll for the main story characters.]

Serious-senpai : [……They even clearly mentioned how even if there’s going to be a third Popularity Poll, they wouldn’t let me enter…… How rough.]

? ? ? : [Even so, as expected of Isis-san, she really was strong. It’s a pity that Alice-chan lost to Shallow Vernal-sama, but there wasn’t that big of a difference, so there’s a chance that she could get her revenge victory in the third Popularity Poll.]

Serious-senpai : [Unfortunately for the Main Heroine, she came in fifth (lol)…….]

? ? ? : [Ahh……]

Under King : [……You were saying something about me?]

Serious-senpai : [……I’m sorry, ummm, I got a little carried away…… I’m getting really scared here, so you can go home……]

? ? ? : [It seems like Senpai has chosen death. My condolences.]
