　　 Chapter 52.1

　　 Chapter 52: Reunion and Change (1)

　　Inside the temple of the G.o.d’s realm . I stood on the summoning chamber, the one with a vast white s.p.a.ce as far as the eye could see…I drew the magical chart on the floor of the summoning chamber . My breath was heavy .

　　Shortly after I received the heroes list from the Great G.o.ddess Isister, I ran immediately to this place . That was the reason why I became out of breath .

　　While I casted the spell for the summoning ritual, I looked again at the status of my hero on the paper list . I was deeply moved . My eyes became burning hot again as I was about to cry .

　　Seiya’s status had been reset . That probably meant that he lost all of his memories from the adventure he had with me…But, that was okay . I will have the chance to meet him again . That was enough for me…

　　On that moment, I read the name of my summoned hero .

　　Soon, a light burst from the magical chart, and the chosen hero was summoned from the earthly world .

　　He was handsomely tall, with glossy black hair and a dignified appearance . An aura emanated from his body as if he was a male G.o.d . I wondered if he was relaxing on his own room back on his original world . Ryuguuin Seiya had on casual and comfortable black clothes that he probably wore at his home .

　　I thought that I would never meet the hero again . I’d never have imagined that we’d be reunited through this way once more .

　　…Seiya…!

　　I desperately suppressed my unconscious stretching hands .

　　No! You can’t, Listarte! I must be firm! Seiya no longer remembers about me!

　　While speaking to myself, I stretched my spine and I made a big smile on my face . I managed to retain my dignified G.o.ddess-like appearance while I looked at Seiya once again .

　　Let’s start from the beginning all over again . We have to take our time slowly . Right…Seiya .

　　And then . I spoke exactly the same words as when I first summoned Seiya .

　　「Nice to meet you . I am Listarte . I am a G.o.ddess living on the G.o.d’s realm . I summoned you from your earthly world to this dimension . Listen carefully, Ryuguuin Seiya . You will be the brave hero that will save the world “Exfolia” from the evil threats . 」

　　There was an obvious silent after I spoke . Suddenly, Seiya, who was summoned from the earthly world, looked at me with suspicious eyes . For me, this nostalgic scene felt like a déjà vu .

　　Seiya finally opened his mouth .

　　「Lista . What are you talking about? 」

　　「…Eh? 」

　　Wha…What? Wait a second! Eh? Did he call me Lista? Ah? Why?

　　「I’ve heard exactly the same words before . Is that supposed to be a standard quote whenever you summon a hero?」

　　Wha…Wha, wha, wha…What…!!

　　「Do you…remember me…? 」

　　「Of course . I don’t suffer from amnesia as far as I can tell . 」

　　「Un…Unbelievable…!! That’s…impossible…!! 」

　　「I’m telling the truth . I don’t have amnesia . 」

　　「No, I’m not talking about amnesia!! How…How do you remember!? I mean, when a G.o.d summons a hero, the memory of the previous world should disappear…!! 」

　　「I don’t know . I just remember . 」

　　Suddenly, I recalled the conversation I had with the Great G.o.ddess Isister . I remembered the words she mentioned earlier . The Great G.o.ddess Isister certainly said this .

　　『This is a special case . 』

　　In…In other words…the Great G.o.ddess Isister left Seiya’s memories intact…!? That…That was the only plausible reason to explain this!! What a great reversal!!

　　I was so touched because I trembled all over my body with excitement…

　　「By the way, my status was reboot onto my original one . After all the trouble I had in order to increase it and, then, this happens . This is stupid . Your system is not good at all . 」

　　Seiya looked dissatisfied as he continued to complain…This was so like Seiya…Seeing how my hero behaved as usual, the urge I had suppressed deeply inside me exploded as if something broke apart from pressure .

　　「*shouts and cries* Seiya!! *screams* I missed you so much!! 」

　　I threw away my G.o.ddess-like att.i.tude and I jumped right into Seiya . I hugged him, and cried on his chest .

　　「I thought that your soul was destroyed during that time!! I thought I’d never see you again!! I tried to be strong in front of everyone else!! But, it was so hard and painful!!」

　　After a lot of crying, I took my face away from his chest . And then…

　　「Ah…! 」

　　There were lots of watery marks on Seiya’s clothes because of my tears . No, not only tears . My runny nose also stained Seiya’s clothes . And my mouth…my drooling too .

　　Oh no!! This was bad!! I forgot for a second that I was supposed to behave properly!! He will beat me for sure!!

　　I tried to cover my head with my hands straightaway, but Seiya didn’t beat me .

　　「What? Are…you not angry with me? But, I stained your clothes, you know? 」

　　「I don’t care about that . 」

　　「Eh? You don´t? Wh…Why? 」

　　「…Lista . 」

　　Seiya stared at me with a serious face .

　　「I remember that you tried to help me desperately . Right before I died because of the price I had to pay for using the heavenly gate, I remembered that you were someone important to me from a different past . 」

　　「Im…Important? 」

　　「That’s right . 」

　　「Important…Are you referring…to me…? 」

　　「Yes . Someone important . 」

　　「Am I…an important existence…to you, Seiya? 」

　　「You’re right . Don’t let me repeat it again . This time I came for you . I heard the voice of Isister on my head, saying that you were in charge of a more difficult world than Geabrande as the punishment for saving me . 」

　　「I…I see…You know, well . Excuse me . Could you wait for a moment… 」

　　I turned my face away because I didn’t want Seiya to stare at me directly .

　　Whoa!! Wha…What was this!? What’s up with this sudden development!?

　　The h.e.l.l on heaven! Despair on a summit! An unspeakable sense of blissfulness attacked my heart! But…I still shook my head in denial .

　　No, wait a minute!! I would be an idiot if I were to fall for his words!! That’s right!! It was Seiya we’re talking about!! He will kick me all of a sudden if I let my guard down!! As if I’ll fall for this!!

　　I approached Seiya while my heart was pounding rapidly…

　　「I…I apologize…! 」

　　I tried to wrap my arms around Seiya’s arms casually . There was no change on Seiya’s stoic expression, he was silent, but he didn’t attack me .

　　This couldn’t be!! Why wasn’t he upset with me!? This…This was definitely a sign of…wait, no, not yet!! I should verify this further!!

　　With our arms entangled, I looked up at Seiya with keen eyes .

　　「Listen, Seiya . When we have free time, let’s go see Mash and Elle, all right? You know, both of them wanted to try the hot springs, is it okay with you? 」

　　I was expecting him to say “I don’t know” or “I refuse”, but Seiya answered me immediately .

　　「You’re right . 」

　　Instead, I received the phrase “you’re right”!!

　　「I also caused lots of trouble for those two . If it’s possible, I would like to meet them as soon as possible . 」

　　There…There was no doubt about it!! Fi…Finally…Finally…

　　Inside my heart, I could feel a fireworks display that bloomed into beautiful flowers .

　　Finally, a tsundere conquered it all!! Wait for me, Mash, Elle!! I’ll teach you about the real power of love!!

　　「But, we have to leave that for later after completing this quest . This world is more difficult than Geabrande, right? I need to be better preparation for this . 」

　　Soon, Seiya’s eyes became sharp looking .

　　「I need to start my practice immediately . 」

　　「Eh!? So soon!? 」

　　「Yeah . I’ll start with basic training as I did here once before . 」

　　Seiya stared at me with determination . I knew where this was going without being told . He wanted me to leave the summoning chamber .

　　「O…Okay . I understand . 」

　　He didn’t change his preferences about practicing in unattractive places . Even so, I wanted to be more lovey-dovey with him…

　　Just as I did before, I made a simple bed and toilet with the power of a G.o.ddess’ creative abilities . I handed a buzzer to Seiya like I always did .

　　「All right let me know when you’re ready . 」

　　When I tried to go out with a slightly lonely face .

　　「Lista . 」

　　Seiya called me .

　　「I leave my meals up to you… 」

　　「…Yes!! 」

　　—

　　「Hey, hey, listen, listen, Aria!! You know what!? Seiya has become a very gentle man!! He didn’t hit or kick me anymore!! He also didn’t crush my milky b.r.e.a.s.t.s!! 」

　　「I…I feel glad for you . I’m pleased that everything worked out in the end…」

　　I was in the room of senior G.o.ddess Ariadoa . I told her everything that happened . I was so excited and happy . Aria smiled when she heard my story .

　　「It was thanks to Lady Isister that Seiya retained his memories . I’m sure she spoke with the innermost lawful G.o.ds of the heavens about your efforts, Lista . I also apologized to her for my rude behavior early on . Lista, you should properly thank her later . 」

　　After saying that, Aria wrinkled between her eyebrows abruptly .

　　「Hey…Lista? Are you listening? 」

　　「Yeah, yeah! I’m listening, I’m listening! You said I should thank the Great G.o.ddess Isister, am I correct? I know that!」

　　「You…You know, Lista . You can’t be serious . Do you understand me? The past is the past . You mustn’t forget that Seiya is a human being . And you are a G.o.ddess now . 」

　　「Ah! Not that again! I didn’t forget about that! I understand it very well! 」

　　「Really? Do you really understand it? 」

　　Aria took a deep breath .

　　「I’m worried . Actually, I wanted to accompany you on this quest . Exfolia is a world that will bring you many painful memories . Even if you forgot about your human memories, I’m sure your soul will react the moment you arrive in there…」

　　Aria was seriously worried about me . I tried to lift up her mood .

　　「I’m fine, I’m fine! That’s because I have a lovey-dovey darling by my side now! …Oh, no! It’s already time to go! I have to cook a meal for Seiya! See you, Aria! 」

　　「Li…Lista!? How about thanking Lady Isister!? 」

　　「Sorry! I’ll visit her tomorrow! 」

　　I left Aria’s room in a hurry . I ran straightaway to the kitchen of the G.o.d’s realm . My relations.h.i.+p with Seiya was going so well . It was as if everything was too good to be true .
