Chapter 7 : This is heaven♡

I gently placed me in front of the site we’d use as the entrance.

“Thank you!”

“You’re welcome♡”

I made the entrance, which I had made smaller with [Small], big.

The door grew instantly and settled down beautifully at the end of the site.

“How is it, how is it? It’s great!”

“Yes♡ It really looks like a theme park!”

I put my hands on my waist, feeling proud.

But this is not the end!

I also started decorating the area around the entrance.

First, I placed cute animal statues on both sides of the entrance.

On one side, a cute rabbit-shaped statue,

On the other side, a cozy-looking teddy bear statue.

“How is it?!”

“…You, it’s so pretty♡”

“Right, right! That short arm and legs are the point!”

I nodded, looking at the teddy bear statue I wanted to hug right away.

Short arms and legs, round body,

Just looking at it made me want to hug it.

[Teddy Bear Statue appears!]

I should sell a teddy bear doll exactly like this at the souvenir shop one day.

This cute design will definitely be a hit.

“Then let’s go on top of the cliff and check if it’s okay!”

“Yes♡”

I hesitated, trying to enlarge my wings with [Large, Large].

…My wings. Ria broke them.

“…Uuuuu.”

“Why are you like that all of a sudden, Senior?”

“Look at this…”

I took out the wing weakly and flapped it.

Then, Ria’s eyes narrowed slightly.

‘…Come to think of it, what is this, Senior?”

“You can tell just by looking. It’s the wings. I drew it with care…”

Ria, who looked at the wings for a moment, knelt down.

“Ueeeee?!”

“…How dare I damage Senior’s cute and lovely wings.”

Ria lowered her head with a serious expression.

It was my turn to become uneasy at her appearance.

“Nooo, it’s okay! I can draw it again! Get up!”

“……You promised to protect what Senior made, but you broke it from the start.”

“No, no! Wings like this with asymmetry are beautiful, and uh, unique and…”

I pondered hard about how to overcome this situation.

That moment.

[Special Item : Would you like to buy Copy, Stamp!]

• Copy : Copy an object made with a magic pen.

• Stamp! : Easily place the copied object in the desired location.

ᆞUsage: Copy 5 times a day. Stamp! 10 times a day. (Can be charged and strengthened with points)

I pressed the purchase button without hesitation.

Come to think of it,

When I drew the entrance a moment ago, it sold ‘erase clean with an eraser’ separately…

Although I felt something ominous, the important thing was the wings.

I quickly used [Copy] to copy the intact side of the wings,

Erased the asymmetrical part and used [Stamp!].

Then, the torn off wings instantly returned to their original state.

“It’s done! Ria! I fixed it!”

“I’m relieved… I’m so sorry, Senior.”

“It’s okay! Since I fixed it!”

I spread out the new wings, flapping them with all my might.

Since the one intact wing was fixed, the wings are now restored on both sides.

Now I can fly to my heart’s content!

But…

Honestly…

I glanced at Ria.

“…Ria.”

“Yes?”

“…Hug me.”

“Yes♡”

In an instant, I was in Ria’s arms again.

Really.

Really.

I hate to admit it…

…It’s very comfortable that Ria moves me.

I sighed and got comfortable in Ria’s arms.

This feeling is soft, warm, and stable…

…I think this will become a habit.’

I was aware that something was going wrong, but I didn’t want to give up this convenience.

“Senior, hold on tight.”

“Yes….”

“Well, I won’t let you go♡”

I waited for my means of transport to lift me up to the top of the cliff, leaning gently against Ria.

Ria, holding me tightly, jumped up lightly over the cliff.

“We’re here, Senior♡”

“Fast.”

And, unlike me, the ground didn’t sink.

I was constantly amazed and looked up at Ria.

‘Ah, right.’

I gestured to Ria.

“Ria, Ria.”

“Yes?”

“Head, head.”

Ria tilted her head slightly at my words,

Then, as if she understood, she smiled gently and leaned her head toward me.

“Good, good. Thank you♡”

“Kyaa♡ I got complimented by Senior♡”

Ria smiled happily, her eyes sparkling.

…It’s nothing, but she really likes it.’

Both Ria and the others,

…Wait. Other people. They have names, too.

‘What was it called?’

I was groaning, trying to think of it.

The presence that seems to be remembered.

But no matter how much I tried to recall, it was blurry.

“What are you thinking about, Senior?”

“Huh? You see, I suddenly can’t remember the names of the kids…”

“Ah, it always is.”

I was stunned for a moment.

“It always is?”

“Yes♡”

Ria answered without hesitation and touched my cheek with her fingertip.

“Since this is heaven. It’s natural for the memories of your previous life to fade away.”

“…Wh, heaven?!”

I looked at Ria in surprise.

Ria tilted her head slightly, and smiled sweetly as usual.

“Yes, heaven.”

“…Heaven, the goddess’s sanctuary is heaven.”

“No. That is not heaven, it is a kind of management office?”

A management office.

It was a metaphor that seemed to diminish the authority of the goddess in an instant.

…Then, I didn’t reincarnate?’

“You know, it’s reincarnation too. But… This is kind of a preparation stage?”

“A preparation stage…?

Ria, after thinking for a moment, gently grabbed my hand and spoke softly.

“Yes, this is the place where you stay before living a completely new life, Senior. Of course, you can live here forever.”

“…I don’t understand anything.”

I was confused in many ways.

It’s reincarnation, but it’s not reincarnation,

It is a new life, but not a new life.

No matter how much I thought about it, I didn’t understand.

Could it be…

‘…Is this intelligence issues?’

Suddenly, I remembered that there was something to reduce intelligence among my status effects.

・I’m not a very smart person originally.

“But how do you know that?”

“Because I ripped the goddess’s hair and asked?”

“What?”

For a moment, it felt like I misheard.

But Ria continued to talk, smiling brightly.

“I had to investigate about that place, it’s the common sense for the Hunters, right? At first, she didn’t want to tell me. So, I… used my hand somewhere♡”

“…Th, that. Isn’t that blasphemy?”

“Ah, fortunately, it went well, as expected. The goddess who is in charge of heaven is a fool, as usual♡”

…Am I going to get struck by lightning by staying next to her?

A lightning strike wouldn’t hurt,

But it is a lightning strike given by the god, maybe it would sting more.

“Don’t worry, Senior. You can think of this place as heaven arranged to reward those who live a good life.”

“Uuu…”

“… Is that so?”

“That’s right♡”

But the memory disappearing…

No, it’s natural since it’s reincarnation, isn’t it?

I was agonizing as I thought, and Ria suddenly held my cheek and slowly shook it.

“Senior, pull yourself together♡”

“Hwaaa?!”

“You went through so much hardship in your past life. You should enjoy the rewards given to you and don’t care about the unnecessary stuff♡”

Ria gently placed me down and pointed at the entrance.

“Look at that, Senior. Isn’t it a little awkward, not placed in the center?”

“Eh? Eeee?! That’s right?!”

I was flustered and examined the door.

It’s strange. I thought it was in the center!

It’s large, with big differences if looking at close or far.

“What should I do? Should I lift it and move it?”

“Should we?”

At that moment.

A blue notification window poked its head again.

[This is not where you belong!]

This is not where you belong! : You can move objects made with a magic pen freely. The harmony with the surrounding environment is automatically adjusted.

Usage : move just one object 10 times a day. Mass movement 5 times a day (Can be charged and strengthened with points)

・Purchase cost: 300 points

…Didn’t you say it was heaven?

It’s a reward, but it’s too serious of scalping!

I pressed the purchase button since it is necessary.

‘Anyway, how many points do I have?’

I checked the points I had without thinking. Then—.

[Points owned: 3231]

I looked at the screen, surprised, and stared at it.

Three thousand two hundred thirty-one…?

No matter how many times I looked again, the number didn’t change.

“Hiyyyaaaaaaaaa—?!”

“Why are you doing that, Senior! What’s wrong!”

“Ri, Ri, Ria…”

I shared the store window with Ria, who was next to me.

“…The, the, there. What is the number written there?”

“The, number? 3,231?”

“Re, really?! I didn’t see it wrong?!”

It’s unbelievable. That I have 3,231 points?

I am so surprised by the shock, as if I won the lottery, and my hand trembled.

‘…What is this about?’

I hurriedly opened the achievement window.

‘???????? – ???? ???????? is found!!! (2000 points)’

What is this? Did my eyes get broken?

I rubbed my eyes and looked again, but the letters on the status window were still broken.
