Chapter 607 - Fate-san is Alright, Isn\'t She?
I wonder what’s going on? Since it’s Fate-san we’re talking about here, there’s no way that she’s “too busy because of work”. On the other hand, there’s also no way that Fate-san, a Supreme God, is sick in bed.
Could it be that I’ve done something that got Fate-san mad? No, but at my birthday party, she was still acting as usual……
[……Hey, Alice.]
[What is it?]
[Do you know what happened with Fate-san? I haven’t seen her lately……]
For the time being, I asked Alice, who is a good friend of Fate-san, but for some reason, she had a complicated look on her face.
[……Errr, Fate-san…… She’s been w- working a lot lately, so she doesn’t have much time.]
[……If you’re going to make up a lie, you could have at least made a better one than that.]
[No, to be honest, even though I’m the one who said it, I also feel like it’s unrealistic, but what I said isn’t entirely wrong……]
[Eh? Then, Fate-san is seriously working? Voluntarily?]
[Y- Yes, well……]
That’s impossible, that Fate-san willingly doing work? ……No matter how I look at it, the situation is clearly abnormal.
[C- Could it be…… Fate-san really isn’t doing well?]
[……W- Well, that’s right. I guess you could say that she’s sick in a way.]
[She’s sick!? No, no, if she’s sick, then shouldn’t be working…… Or rather, even a Supreme God like Fate-san can get sick!?]
[……Well, how should I say this…… Regarding the details of her sickness, I’m not at liberty to say that…… Ahh, but it’s not something that can be transmitted to others so……]
Apparently, Fate-san really is sick. No, well, it may be rude to say this, but I could understand now. I see, because of that sickness of hers, she hasn’t been coming to visit lately and is even doing work, something she normally doesn’t do……
It must be a very heinous disease. Otherwise, I can’t imagine that Fate-san would be doing her job.
[……I’m worried about her, so I think I’ll go pay her some visit.]
[………………..]
[Alice?]
[……Ahh, no, well, there is indeed that shock therapy concept, isn’t it? I guess that could work.]
[U- Unnn?]
I don’t really know what she’s talking about, but for the time being, I’m going to visit her. Let’s buy some fruits first and bring them as souvenirs.
[……I mean, even though she punched me when I was like that, she’s acting all hesitant when the same thing happens to her……]
[Ooooiiiii, Alice?]
[Ah, no! I’m also worried about Fate-san, so I’ll go with you! Now, now, since we’ve decided, let’s hurry up and go!]
When I called out to Alice, who had her hand on her chin and was mumbling something, a cheerful smile appeared on her face as she urged me to come visit Fate-san already.
Somehow, rather than worried…… It feels like Alice is up to no good again……
The upper level of the God Realm, a place I had visited once before. There stands Fate-san’s temple, to which Alice and I entered. I wonder if Fate-san is alright? The fact that she’s working means that she’s physically fine. Well, what I’m very worried about is if she’s mentally alright though……
As I was thinking about this, I knocked on the door that led to Fate-san’s room. A little while later, the door opened a bit and a grumpy-looking Fate-san appeared.
[Geez, what now…… I said I’m busy working, so stop being a…… hind…… rance…… Eh?]
[Ah, errr, hello.]
[……Kai-chan?]
[Yes, errr, I came to visit……]
When I timidly called out to Fate-san, who totally looked like she was in a bad mood, her face stiffened and a little while later, she began profusely sweating.
[……Eh? W- Why are you here…… U- Ummm, my heart isn’t ready yet….. so, errr, go home for the time being……]
[Fate-san!]
[Eh? Shall-tan? W- What’s the matter?]
[I know you’re wondering why Kaito-san came, but I’ll finish my own business first, okay?]
[……Business?]
Saying this with a bright smile on her face, Alice grabbed Fate-san’s hand and pulled her out of the door.
[That’s right! I’m here to pay back the debt I received from Fate-san!]
[……Debt? Hey, Shall-tan? What in the world are you———–]
[ALICE-CHAN KIIIIIIIIIICK!!!]
[——–Fugyaaaahhhh!?]
My eyes couldn’t grasp what had just happened. From what I saw though, Alice’s legs seemed to glow for a moment, before the huge door shattered and Fate-san suddenly crashed onto the back wall of her room.
From the line she said…… Alice must have kicked her. Or rather, what the heck are you doing, oi!?
[……W- Wait, Shall-tan! What are you suddenly doing!? That hurts!]
I don’t think that kick would be something that would have just normally hurt someone…… Well, I guess for someone with super specs like Fate-san, the damage would only to the extent that her face turned a bit red.
[No, remember, you punched me before…… So I’m returning it!]
[That was a punch before! Why did you return it with a kick!? Moreover, you aimed at my face without hesitation!?]
[Now then, Fate-san! Let’s not dwell on every single thing! Let’s face the future with a bang! Well then, adieu!]
[Stop right theeeeeere!!! I have lots of things to say but…… let me kick you too!!!]
After doing what she wanted to do and only saying what she wanted, Alice disappeared, and Fate-san’s screams echoed in the temple.
Dear Mom, Dad————– Errr, I heard that Fate-san was sick, so I came to visit her but…… Doesn’t it seem like there’s something strange here? No, rather, I know that I don’t know some things but————— Fate-san seems to be alright, isn’t she?
