I decided to help the dying fairy.
Instead of a fairy flower, which is a vessel for a fairy, I decided to use a cyclamen as a vessel.
~~~~~~
Sinri: Cyclamen are famous as flowers that seal magic power. That’s why they were able to replace the fairy flower, which contains a huge amount of magic power.
~~~~~~
That’s what she said.
First, I need to make the cyclamen bloom.
“Greater Teleportation”
I returned to the log house for the time being.
“I’ve been waiting for you.”
“Fubuki.”
My friend, the pet sitter Fubuki, was waiting for me.
“I heard the story from Sinri. The preparations are already complete.”
“Hmm… very thorough.”
Guided by Fubuki, we moved to the greenhouse.
This is where we grow the vegetables we eat.
Inside the greenhouse, soft, nutrient-rich soil was already spread out.
“Okay, first, let’s sow the flower seeds…”
“Hey, Mika, if we wait for the flowers to bloom, won’t the fairy die?”
In Fubuki’s arms, the fairy was breathing heavily.
Sinri said that it would die soon.
“It’s true that it will die while we wait for the flowers to bloom. Mika God, what will you do?”
“It’s okay, it’s okay.”
I plant the cyclamen bulb.
“Up to this point, it’s just planting flowers. But from here on, it’s different.”
I put my hand into the ■(Box) and take it out.
I sprinkle it with a swish sound.
In an instant, the flowers bloomed.
“Alright!”
“W-what was that just now…?”
“This is Holy Ash. A byproduct of Vermilion Bird, Akahane, burning things.”
Holy Ash has the power to promote plant growth.
By planting the cyclamen in nutrient-rich soil with this sprinkled on it, the flowers bloomed in an instant.
“This is good. Now… let’s bring the fairy closer…”
The fairy was sucked into the flower.
Soon… poof…! The cyclamen glowed brightly.
And from the petals, a fairy appeared.
Until just now, it was translucent and almost gone.
But now, its body is not transparent, and its outline is clear.
The fairy opens its eyes with a blink.
“Are you okay?”
“Who… are you…?”
“I’m Mika. I’m the Supreme God, by the way.”
“Supreme God…!? W-why are you on the ground…? Such a person…? No, that doesn’t matter.”
The fairy kneels before me.
“Thank you for saving me when I was in danger. Supreme God-sama. I am Fairy King Oberon.”
…Huh?
Huh?
“Eh, a king? And… a Named…?”
I’m pretty sure that in this world, monsters with names are called Named, and they’re rare…
And a king, too…
“Could it be that you’re the king of the fairies?”
“That is correct. I, Oberon, was the king who united the fairies in Alfheim…”
…Why is everything in the past tense?
And he has a painful look on his face. Mmm.
“What’s wrong? Want to talk about it?”
~~~~~~
Sinri: Master, do you want to have a physical relationship with a fairy…?
~~~~~~
What is this useless AI saying?
“Tell me. I’ll help you.”
“…Thank you. Actually…”
To summarize what Oberon said, it’s like this.
Alfheim is currently ruled by a being called the Magic Bug King.
The Magic Bug King is a suddenly born mutant of the Magic Bug.
The Magic Bug King devoured the queen who gave birth to it, and ordered its subordinate Magic Bugs to go and get good food.
In the process, they discovered the fairies living in Alfheim, and the fairy flowers.
The Magic Bug King devoured the fairy flowers and the fairies.
However, Oberon put up a barrier on the fairy flowers to protect his companions.
“The barrier hasn’t been broken yet, so the fairies are safe. But… the barrier can’t be maintained forever. Sooner or later, the barrier will break, and my companions will…”
“Die.”
I see.
“It was a close call, Oberon-dono. If you had died earlier, wouldn’t the barrier have broken?”
Oberon nods at Luciel’s question.
“Yes…”
“By the way, Oberon, why are you alive even without a fairy flower?”
“I have a special skill called the Independent Action Skill, which allows me to move even without a vessel in my perception.”
I see. So that’s why he was able to act even after the Magic Bug King took the fairy flowers.
“Can’t you summon the barrier in front of you?”
“No… I have to go directly to the Magic Bug King and convert…”
Hmm, I understand the story. In short, the fairies are being held captive by a guy called the Magic Bug King.
“Okay. Then, I’ll go and beat up the Magic Bug King.”
In any case, I was on my way to crush the Magic Bug nest.
I need to defeat the enemy boss, the Magic Bug King, in the process.
“I-it’s dangerous…! The Magic Bug King is a terrifying person!”
“It’s okay, it’s okay.”
“It’s okay?”
On the other hand, Seira says.
“It’s okay.”
“Yes, if Mika God says it’s okay, it’s okay.”
Luciel also agrees.
“Leave it to the Supreme God.”
“…Are you really sure about this?”
“Yeah. It’s fine.”
“Thank you…!”
“It’s fine.”
So, we decided to beat up the Magic Bug King in the Magic Bug nest.
“Wahahaha! What are you guys doing?”
“Daguko.”
The Supreme God Dagza, or Daguko, approached us.
“Hmm? Hey, aren’t you Oberon?”
“D-D-Dagza-sama!?”
Huh…? Are Daguko and Oberon acquaintances…?
“W-wha!? A-are…? Ehhhhhhhhhh!?”
“What’s wrong, Oberon?”
The Fairy King is surprised when he compares me and Daguko.
“W-why is Dagza-sama here…? Didn’t you retire?”
“What do you mean?”
Oberon says.
“I received my name from Dagza-sama.”
“Oh, you named him.”
Dagza says, “I forgot!” Hey…
“Dagza-sama was the Supreme God. But since Mika-sama called herself the Supreme God, I thought there was a generational change…”
Ah… I see.
“There are two Supreme Gods now.”
“………………Huh?”
Oberon is confused. Well, I can understand why.
The Supreme God is the highest God. The highest means there should only be one.
“W-why are there two…?”
“There were a lot of things! Now Mika is the Supreme God on the ground!”
?! Oberon is shocked.
“M-Mika-sama… are you living on the ground…?”
“Yeah. So?”
“S-so what… In order for a God to live on the ground for a long time, they need a vessel, right?”
That’s right. Even fairies need a vessel called a fairy flower.
“No, I don’t have a vessel.”
“No!? Why!?”
“Eh, because I was originally human?”
“H-huh…? Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!?”
Oberon is shocked. Ah… this is not very common, is it?
The case of a human becoming a God.
“D-Dagza-sama… is it true?”
“It’s true! Mika is a Saint who teleported from another world and evolved into a God!”
“I can’t believe it… a human becoming a God… and even becoming the Supreme God…”
“By the way, Mika became a God and the Supreme God just recently!”
Oberon looks at me and tilts his head.
“W-who… w-what are you…?”
Who am I…?
“Just a recluse.”
Oberon was frozen in a state of confusion.
“I understand.” “It’s incomprehensible, isn’t it?”
Seira and Luciel were nodding vigorously next to Oberon.
