Rena, Goddess of Wisdom and Victory, and Heibos,

 　Episode 5 Rena, Goddess of Wisdom and Victory, and Heibos, Goddess of Blacksmithing

On Mount Elios, the highest mountain in the world, there is a heavenly shrine where the gods live.

　The lowest floor of the shining heavenly shrine is Heibos' residence.

　Heibos thinks that this place is suitable for him, who is an exception among the beautiful gods of light.

　In this dimly lit place, other gods of light were supposed to seldom approach.

　But today is different.

"It's you, God of Blacksmith Heibos!!"

　An angry voice echoes in the room.

　Heibos is called the god of smiths and treasures by humans, and father by all dwarves.

　This room is also Heibos' workplace.

　Heibos welcomes an unusual visitor to the room.

"What's wrong? Arlena, the goddess of wisdom and victory? I didn't expect you to come to a place like this, instead of being a messenger like usual."

　When Heibos turned around, Rena was there.

　Arlena, the goddess of wisdom and victory, commonly known as Rena, is a god of light like Heibos.

　That Rena looked at Heibos with an angry face.

　Rena, who is counted as one of the three graces, has a beautiful angry face.

　It's been a long time since Heibos met with Rena.

　Rena always sends a messenger when she has something to do.

　When the messenger came last time, the request was to create a tool that would assist in summoning a hero from another world.

　Rena had never been here when the auxiliary tool was made.

　That's why Rena herself is here today. Heibos was unusual.

"What's wrong!"

　Rena screams.

"You must be Heibos. The one who taught Demon King Modes about heroes and summoning!"

　Rena asks.

　Modes is the god of darkness, but he can be said to be Heibos' only friend. There is no reason why he should not teach what he knows.

"Oh, I told you, Rena. Because you asked me."

　I was able to learn everything about summoning when I made the auxiliary tools for summoning.

　Modes, driven into a corner by the hero, sent a messenger to Heibos.

　At that time, I taught him everything about heroes and summoning techniques.

“Modes is the god of darkness! And you are the god of light!

　Rena said so and glared at Heibos.

　The gods of light are the descendants of Mina, the goddess of the sun.

　Heibos is also a god of light if you look only at his bloodline.

"Is the god of darkness who disobeys my enemy... Is that what happened?"

　Heibos misses that.

　The current heaven is under the rule of the gods of light.

　Having succeeded in ousting Modes, the faction of the God of Light took advantage, first legally and then by force, one after another. Rena belongs to that faction.

　Compared to the gods of light, the gods of darkness are disorganized.

　Despite their differences of opinion, the Gods of Light are united. On the other hand, the gods of darkness are scattered, and some of them are hostile to each other.

　As a result, the dark gods had to deal with the light gods individually, resulting in many being driven out.

　Heibos didn't stop it.

　This is because the god of darkness who did not protect Modes by taking the sweet words of the goddess of light thought that even if he was driven out, he deserved it.

　Currently, the god of darkness that remains in Elios is in a subordinate position to the god of light.

"I'm sorry, but Rena. No matter what you say, Modes is a friend of this Heibos. I have no intention of stopping our relationship."

"Are you going to be my enemy!? Hey Boss!"

　Rena's wrath.

"So what are you going to do, Rena? Kill this Heibos."

　When Heibos said so, Rena fell silent.

　Rena is stronger in fighting power, and Heibos will probably be killed if she feels like it.

　But Heibos had no fear.

"I can't kill you... Your power is necessary for Elios."

　Rena says regretfully.

　Heibos is an excellent engineer among the gods.

　If Heibos disappears, it will be a great loss for the Gods of Light.

　That's why Rena couldn't do anything.

"But, Rena. In the first place, isn't there another reason why you are hostile to Modes?"

　In fact, Heibos knew why Rena was hostile to Modes.

　It is the existence of Mona. But that raises questions.

(Even so, why does Rena know that Morna is a copy of herself? Is there anyone?)

　I was able to find out about Heibos because he interacted with Modes. But she doesn't know how Lena knew.

"Well, what are you talking about, Heibos? I don't understand what you're saying."

　Rena is dumbfounded.

"Either way is fine with this Heibos. Is that the end of the story?"

"Yeah, that's it. I'm going home today. Heibos. But I'll say it one last time. If you want to help Modes, I have an idea. This is my advice."

　Rena says so and tries to go home.

"Sometimes Rena. Can I ask you something?"

　I stop Rena who is about to go home.

"What is it? Heibos?"

"The heroes have great power. After defeating Modes, what did you plan to do with those heroes?"

　Heibos hasn't met the heroes in person, but he's heard that they have powers comparable to those of the gods, so it would be dangerous to leave them alone.

　Will you welcome me as the god of Elios?

　But in order to do so, he must obtain the consent of the other gods. It won't be easy.

"Those who came from another world are returned to another world, isn't that natural?"

　Heibos tilts his head.

　As far as Heibos knows, it should be difficult to bring them back to the original world with that summoning technique, even if they can be pulled into this world and taken out of this world.

　There is a high possibility of going to a world different from the original world. If you're not careful, you could end up drifting forever between worlds.

　It can't be called a comeback. At least Heybos thinks so.

"They came from outside this world, so when it's all over, I'll have them leave this world."

"Are you telling the heroes about it?"

“Of course.

　Heibos smiles wryly upon hearing those words.

　Certainly, it might be possible to return to the original world, or to return at the same time.

　But it's just a possibility, and you shouldn't have tried it in particular.

　How would you even try it? There should have been no way to experiment.

　Heibos wondered, but didn't say anything.

"If there's nothing more to talk about, I'll go home, Heibos."

　Lena leaves.

"Hmph, are heroes disposable tools? Modes is ugly, but not as vicious as you guys."

　I mutter when I see the door Rena left.

　Heibos knew. banish Modesconspiracyscalethat Rena is deeply involved in

　Although lascivious, Modes was a good-natured fellow. He is not to be compared with his disgusting brethren.

　Heibos walks to the work desk and reads the letter on it.

　It is a letter of thanks sent from Modes.

　In the letter of appreciation, I was able to repel the hero with my summoning technique, and words of gratitude for that were written.

"A disciplined fellow"

　Heibos laughs involuntarily.

　Heibos has made things for many people, but only Modes has sent a letter of appreciation.

"I want the heroes to thank me too. What would have happened if I had defeated Modes like that?"

　Heibos thinks that the heroes will be disposed of by Rena.

　However, Demon Lord Modes is alive and well.

　As long as the heroes are useful, Rena won't dispose of them either.

　And Heibos knew that he could not be summoned again.

　This is because the gods of light, who witnessed the power of the hero, decided to ban summoning.

　If you summon more strong people than this, you could become an enemy of the gods of light.

　Therefore, Rena should not be able to use summoning techniques.

　Also, that technique cannot be performed easily. This is because we need a variety of rare media.

　Heibos knew that Rena and Modes had a hard time collecting them.

　Therefore, neither of them should be able to perform summons many times.

　Therefore, it is safe to assume that people from other worlds will hardly come to this world from now on.

　Heibos thinks of those summoned by Modes.

　Kuroki.

　That is the name of the person summoned by Demon Lord Modes.

"Well, what will happen from now on?"

　In the dark workshop, Heibos was thinking about the future.
