[Conclusion and Reconstruction]

“…That was splendid, Savior, Saintess Ophir…” Boreios smiled while powerlessly lying on the ground, his body weathering.

He was wearing a really satisfied expression, as if he had no regrets left.

Normally, as long as an individual that had been blackdollified wasn’t dead, it would be possible to restore them back to normal by purification, but it seemed that wasn’t the case if they overcame the blackdollification on their own.

It might be the price that one had to pay for going against Phinis-sama’s will—an end without redemption.

But surely, just like Shangarula, Boreios wouldn’t want to be revived.

Therefore, Ophir and I both got down on one knee to be witness to his last moment.

“Ya were pretty strong yerself, old man. Well, not as strong as my husband, though.”

“…Huh, is that so? Your man was certainly strong… To wield a saintess as one’s power, such a miracle is only achievable by the savior…”

“No, that’s where you’re wrong.《Superior Arms》can only be activated when our hearts are connected with each other. If you want to praise someone, please praise Ophir.”

“Yeah, praise me! I’m the type of person who thrives when she receives a praise!” Ophir grinned joyfully.

As I smiled at her, I said, “Besides,” and continued, “if anything is a ‘miracle’ here, it’s you, isn’t it? After all, among the saints, you were the only one who managed to overcome the blackdollification. You prevailed over the power of the Goddess of the End Phinis, one of the Twin Goddesses of Genesis.”

“…You’re right… With my own will I was able to… fight back a god… In the other side… I’ll make sure… to brag about it… to Shangarula…”

A peaceful smile on his face, Boreios’s body completely turned into dust, which then brought away by the wind.

““……””

After properly sending him off, we nodded to each other and then hurried to Shiva-san, who was still blocking the seawater.

◇ ◇

Afterwards, we went to the surface to explain the situation to the chief as well as to close the hole that Boreios had dug from the sea side. But then we were confronted with a certain problem.

――Yes, it was whether or not to bring over Porco-san to help with the reconstruction of the minotaur village, which had been practically ruined.

I knew thinking about it normally, bringing him over would be course of action, but his love for big breast was simply over the top…

I was afraid to imagine of what might happen if we bring him over to this place that might as well be called ‘big breast paradise’.

“Well, I don’t think it’s going to be a problem. True, it’s a bit worrisome, but there’s so many big boobs that he loves so much here. If we just dangle a bait in front of him, I’m sure he’ll desperately work his best,” said Shiva-san.

Ophir nodded, “Yeah. That fatty’s eyes change color whenever he spots breasts. He always ogles us even though he has hots for Magmell, too.”

This was my first-time hearing that.

It seemed like I needed to have a little chat with Porco-san later. “But still, it’s true that Porco-san’s dwarven power is indispensable for reconstructing the village. I guess we’ve got no other choice but to… hang on, hm?”

Right then, a thought suddenly came to me.

――If it’s a dwarf we need, it doesn’t necessarily have to be Porco-san.

It might not be her field of specialization, but if it was Nazarie-san, who boasted the nickname of ‘Matchless Genius’, I thought we could leave this to her without worry. And most importantly, she was a ‘woman’.

That being the case, she shouldn’t have any attachment to boobs, and she wouldn’t cause troubles to the minotaurs.

Yeah, this may be a good idea.

As such, I suggested to bring Nazarie-san over instead of Porco-san, but—

“—But she’s a no-breasts, too. Would she even okay it?” asked Ophir.

“……”

How could I forget such an obvious fact? With that realization dawned upon me, I facepalmed involuntarily.
