Chapter 222: The Sage Tries to Consult
A few days later, I was standing on the balcony of the castle.
I was overlooking the condition of the royal capital from there.
It was so peaceful that it was hard to believe it was actually the same land that was being targeted by everyone from all over the world.
The vibrant city continued to develop even today.
I was thinking while looking at people doing their activities.
Recently there was only one topic occupying my brain.
I found myself always being bothered by it.
Just as I was at a loss on what to do, Luciana came beside me.
She hung her cheek on her hand while resting her arm on the balcony fence.
Youre thinking about the Savior, right?
You know me well.
Thats what comes to mind if we talk about your most recent worries.
Luciana whistled.
The pure tone was swept away by the wind.
After a bit of silence, she continued to talk.
Is it something to be worried about? Doesn't it just so happen that people are becoming more helpful to each other? Such kind people are everywhere, you know.
I also think so.
Then what are you worrying about?
After being questioned by Luciana, I turned to her.
Then I told her the answer.
Its because the feelings of the masses can sometimes take shape.
Are you referring to the Will of the World?
Yes, Im being wary of that.
The Will of the World was built by the desires of humanity.
By just gathering wishes, it could transform into a great power.
It was a troublesome phenomenon that didnt consider the result and aftermath.
It could even cause events that might destroy humanity in the end.
She sported a naughty smile on her face.
I think she would come if Demon Lord-sama called for her. Perhaps she is already awake now.
She is a defense mechanism that protects the world. Its not like she is my friend, so I cant call her easily.
It doesnt hurt to try anyway. Come on, try to call for her.
For some reason, Luciana was being insistent about her opinion for today.
Although I had no idea why, she seemed to have some sort of conviction.
Since she had insisted on it that much, it should be alright to try it.
First, I connected to Yuura through telepathy.
I tried to deliver my voice to the Great Spirit through her.
Oh, Great Spirit. I have a little request
What is it?
A voice replied from behind me.
Looking back, I could see Yuura standing, who was currently being possessed by the Great Spirit.
She had appeared at an amazing speed.
Because of that, the office desk in the room had been turned over and countless documents were flying in the air.
Luciana showed a smile as she saw the Great Spirit in front of her.
See? She did indeed come in a hurry.
I wasnt in a hurry. I merely answered the Demon Lords call.
The Great Spirit vehemently denied Lucianas words.
It was hard to get a read on her emotions, but I could see that the Great Spirit had become a little moody while looking at Luciana.
Luciana then muttered enjoy your time and dropped down from the balcony with light movements.
She flew in the sky and retreated.
It seemed she was being considerate so we could have an easier time conversing.
I didnt expect for her to really answer my call, but it is convenient this time around.
I looked at the Great Spirit.
She was also familiar with the Will of the World.
Perhaps I might be able to gather some clues regarding the Savior.
I felt bad for calling a defense mechanism for such a trivial task, but since she was already here, I might as well consult with her.
