Chapter 10: The end of the “two days – one night” turmoil

~~TLC: Lunate ED: champion9124~~

Having decided that the tower will be open to everyone, a guard was stationed at the entrance to control the amount of visitors, as too many people entering the structure at once posed to be dangerous.

A lot of people, who wanted to try climbing the tower that suddenly appeared there, crowded the gate plaza that was usually empty at this time. Merchants have already started recruiting earth arts users, capable of creating small copies of the tower structure to be sold as souvenirs. Healing type water arts users also used this chance to sell their services, as they positioned themselves on the resting areas and sold the recovery services for the climbers.

“Sun, are you all right?”

“……Yes.”

As wind users were ventilating the city, by making wind blow the foul stench of burnt human out, Yuusuke, worried about Sun, asked the girl about her condition while a city guard, skilled in healing type water arts, was healing him. As they wanted to quickly change out of their torn clothes, they needed a place where they could change.

According to the game that Yuusuke’s power was based on, if you customized a piece of equipment, it was automatically unequipped.

Sun was currently wearing a mantle of the fire guard corps, which princess Violet had provided for her, over her torn clothes. [“That’s unexpected”], thought Yuusuke, as he was looking at them.

Chapter 8: Yuusuke’s decision

~~ED: champion9124~~

Having hurriedly returned to the village, Yuusuke called out to Bahana, who he found loitering near the village gate.

“Miss Bahana!”

“Ah, YUSUKE! It’s Terrible! Sun, she …”

Bahana rushed over to Yuusuke and clung to him saying, “Sun was taken by a group of guards”.

Guards, surrounding a guard carriage that was still in the village, started shouting after spotting Yuusuke. Yuusuke handed over his fishing tools and the fish to aunt Bahana and started walking towards the carriage.

“STOP RIGHT THERE!”

“You, with the black hair, your name is Yuusuke, right?”

“It’s as you see.”

Chapter 7: Princess of the flames

~~ED: RustyPK~~

“It’s a lie! There’s no way Zeshald could’ve betrayed us!”

“It’s the truth. I understand your feelings but try to calm down”

In a room at the top of the Volace palace Violet’s close aide, speaking with a steady voice, tried to calm the angry princess down. Violet, having no one else to vent her anger, anxiety, and uneasiness on, glared at her aide who was picking up a chair she had kicked down before.

“You are the ones that shunned Zeshald! Aren’t you silently laughing at him?!”

Chapter 6: Beginning of the new days

“This is made from the mooph (モーフ) material?”

“That’s right”

“How much?”

Even if the fabric was made from the fur of the animals, grown in Rufk village, after this customer they had completely sold out the clothes, tailored with Yuusuke’s customization power.

In the morning they lined good quality clothes and shoes at a bargain price at the stall, which they reserved. The goods were of good quality thus they literally flew off the shelves. Yuusuke, who was being the sales boy as Zeshald was showing him the ropes, completed the deal in a breath.

“We sold a lot. Now we should search for the daily necessities and prepare for the trip back”

Chapter 5: Zeshald’s expectations

~~ED: RustyPK~~

[“God of calamity?”]

[“That’s right, it’s an incarnation of Calamity that is not a man neither an evil beast”]

Violet was lying in the middle of a huge room, that had the entirety of its floor covered in carpet. She asked this while pointing at a picture of a black evil god in a big picture book that was opened before her. Zeshald answered her question with a smile.

[“Will daddy and uncle defeat him?”]

[“Only the goodness in the people hearts is able to stand against the god of calamity. “]

[“Then I will become a good girl so I could help daddy and uncle”]

[“Hohoho, you are a good child, princess”]

Chapter 4: Sanc Adiet

Widest plains on Kaltcio, the Fonclanc plains, or, to be precise, one fifth of these plains were occupied by a gigantic city of Sanc Adiet.  The city was controlled by the strongest fire divine arts users who, over the ages, became royalty. For generations this city was the capital of the country.

The city functioned under a caste system and every citizen knew the limits of his caste – those with stronger divine arts were allowed to live in the quarters in the upper districts of the city as to boast of their power. The palace, where the royalty lived, was a 10 floor building. Its structure and walls below the 5th floor were reinforced with the divine arts.

Chapter 3: Life in Rufk village

“That’s Rufk village”

Zeshald pointed down the road where wooden shacks were lined up in a chaotic way. It was a reasonably sized village that had around 240 villagers living in 60 houses. On the other side of the village huge plains stretched to the horizon.

“The powerless live there, right?”

“Yeah. Maybe I didn’t tell you earlier, but I am a user of water divine arts and also a doctor in this village”

“Not being the ruler of the village, talking to and teaching the powerless people, not to mention living with them, was very uncommon”, on their way to the village Zeshald once again explained to Yuusuke about the depth of the difference between divine arts users and powerless people.

The majority of people have received divine protection from the Four Great Gods, who have created the world. These people called themselves divine arts users and could use abilities, called divine arts. Those with power ruled over this land, and that rule extended to every corner of the world.

Chapter 2: Black hair

With a faint sound a bundle of flowers fell down at the girl’s feet. Rara fruits followed, falling on the flowers and rolling away. In her widely opened white eyes a reflection of a man, waving his hands while muttering something, could be seen. The girl ran away, screaming, her face frozen in fear.

“Ah, wait a bit…”

Having reached the exit of the structure that housed the stone room, Yuusuke met a girl with pure white hair… and that girl ran away…screaming…

“Even though I just wanted to talk to her…?”

He felt slightly perplexed while picking up the bundle of flowers and the fruit like things that she dropped. They looked identical to the offerings in the stone room.

“So that girl came here to bring offerings, eh?”

Chapter 1: Shrine of the evil god

Ding dong
With a ring of chime in his head, Yuusuke Tagami felt his hazy consciousness clear up.

“It’s COLD!”

The air was chilly. When he tried to move his body he felt rough stone with his back and bottom. Instinctively opening his eyes, what he saw was a bright, swaying fire of the brazier that lit a room, which looked like it was made entirely from stone. After getting up and finding his body unchanged he looked around again to confirm his surroundings.

It looked like he was lying on a stone pedestal. Somehow he was completely naked. In front of the pedestal there was an altar with a pitch black statue of a being that somehow resembled a human and a monster at the same time and created a sinister atmosphere.
