"The food thankfully didn't get cold."
"Does anyone want anything else?"
"That was quite something, hun."
The performance of the Ruler of these mountains, the creature that seemed like a simple creature in most of our eyes, had come to an end a while earlier.
The creature that participated in the prayer had either gone to sleep or had went out to get some food while those who were still present in here, had either gone back to their daily tasks or were chatting about some things with the creature that was still present beside the elemental helix.
We were still recovering from what we had witnessed just now, and they were doing well.
Seeing a divine beast from so close was a blessing in itself but, being able to witness the divine prayer of a divinity dedicated to the eternal mother was a different kind of experience altogether.
"What… kind of creature are They?"
Many of them were still in daze, while some were curious and had their own questions about being in such close proximity to a divine beast.
"An origin beast with a certain unique power and a purpose for being in this world.
A creature that achieved divine strength with their own abilities and merit.
Someone that knows who to control their strength and look after other creatures without harming them is their unfathomable powers."
Not only Prince Alph, but even Prince Claud and Miss Ore, his familiar cat, were wondering about what to make of this situation.
'This was no small matter in the first place, so, their confusion was understandable.'
It was common knowledge that the divinities were higher beings just like how the demons were unique beings of a different realm.
The knowledge about the heaven and hell were as limited as the know about the spirit realm however, there were certain things that people knew very well about the creatures or beings of the other dimensions.
'And, the fact that being too close to the divine being and hearing their 'true' voice as a mortal is a bad thing was known to them all.'
They knew it wasn't a good thing to be too close to a divine beast for a long time or be near a creature that possessed divinity.
Encountering them in the wild and admiring them for a few moments was one thing, but they were extremely powerful beings that were on a completely different level than the mortals of all kinds.
'Their divinity was not something any normal human could tolerate for even a moment so some of them were already feeling weird, and reluctant about being in this cave while that creature was still here.'
But they had nothing to worry about since just like any creature that knew how to control their powers, this particular being also knew how to control its powers and not harm the other beings with the divinities it possessed.
'It also knew how to use its powers and how to bless the other beings with the powers it possessed, so there was nothing to worry about.'
"She did it?"
"She actually did it, damn…"
"That girl… is awesome!"
The second person to run to the island was Cradle, and following her, Tia and Quin reached the island as well and greeted the great being, patted them, held them, and did all sorts of things with them that they had considered to be inappropriate.
'However, form the standards of a higher being, something as simple as curiosity and admiration of all those girls that were nothing more than children in their eyes, was nothing disrespectful.'
It was nothing too surprising even from the point of view of the creatures present around Them.
They only saw some human children admiring the high lord of the mountains, the ruling divine entity in their own way.
'They hugged them, kissed them, and tried taking pictures with them- which obviously did not work- and it was the same equivalent of the creatures showing their respect to the divine entity with a bow or with their own song.'
The Divine being did not mind it.
They also found the unique children, the students of the great academy, to be fun additions to this special gathering.
They talked with them, answered their simple questions, hinted them about the unique talents they had yet not realised about themselves, and they kept their words with them limited as they knew even with the Mana voice that they were using, not all the human children could endure the kind of Mana that they were using.
"Zoe, Lizzy, you should go as well."
"Hmm? Big brother?"
We were watching them from the back still as not every one of them had gone to the island.
It was fun watching them from the back but still, we wanted to go there as well.
"I wanted to go first but since she stole that chance, I'll just finish things here and come join you all at the end.
Go ahead, and drag those two lovebirds with you."
Alf and Bell were having their own unique chat about the divine beasts and she was telling him how his parents had encountered some divine beings before in their lives as well.
They were having fun… but they can have more fun over there.
"Oh? Hehehe, I understand~."
She knew what I wanted instantly, so she didn't wait even a moment more and first picked up Lizzy before picking up the two of them and flying over to the other side with her special magic spell that others certainly did not see.
'Alright, then…'
I wanted to go there as well since one of the reasons we came here was to meet this being. So, I had to finish up things on this side first.
And to do that, I had to kick out the father of that young turtle eternity and his regressor Lady on the other side first.
