Chapter 420 - [32nd Round] Morality Hero
“Uh, I have no idea what you’re talking about…”
“Pretending is useless, father-in-law. I have never been wrong when it comes to spines.”
“…”
“…”
“You can tell people apart by their spines? My son-in-law never ceases to surprise me every time I see him— Kekkek?!”
“Hey, you bastard! Did you decide to target your in-laws because you didn’t have anywhere else to go?!”
“I didn’t mean to do that in the first place either— Kue!”
“How are you going to take responsibility for this genealogy?”
“Let’s calm down for now…”
“Do you think that’s possible in this situation?!”
I was going crazy!
If my father-in-law was my younger brother, didn’t that mean his biological daughter was now my niece?!
And when he was a baby, he sucked my mother’s milk…
“Your crimes are punishable by death, are they not?”
“G-great son-in-law! Let me atone for my sins! That’s why I came back to Fantasy! Don’t just stand there, lady! Help me!”
“That’s…”
Beautiful Morality Teacher expressed her displeasure.
If there was one thing I was wrong about her, it was that her anger gauge wasn’t as huge as I thought.
Tuk.
I released my father-in-law’s cervical vertebrae.
“Ahem! Thank you for showing me mercy, son-in-law.”
“Don’t get me wrong.”
“…”
“I merely respect the fact that you didn’t escape into space. Now, tell me how you plan to make up for this error of yours before I change my mind.”
It would be easy for me to bury him right here, right now.
He was the First Demon, after all. My Providence specialized in removing such immoral beings and their immortality. None of his tricks would be able to stop me.
“I came back to ask for forgiveness from those I killed.”
“Ah, I see. You definitely should.”
Losing his wife in the distant past, he rampaged throughout Fantasy, massacring adventurers.
Many of his victims had never wronged him. In fact, most of them were innocent people who weren’t even involved in the incident.
Former Demon Lord Pedonar claimed he’d be visiting and praying for them.
“You should’ve told me. I would have gathered them all for you.”
“That would make my repentance meaningless. I have to be the one to go to them and kneel and beg for their forgiveness. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be sincere.”
“What about me?”
“What about you, son-in-law?”
“Shouldn’t you say sorry for having your cowardly daughter over to me?”
“Didn’t my decision to pass on all my Dark Energy to you already made up for that issue?”
“Don’t twist history. You stole my freedom by giving your power to me. That’s an entirely different problem we’ll have to discuss from this whole issue revolving around Ssosia.”
“Sidael is really cute.”
“Don’t change the subject.”
“You should be the one bowing down to me since I gave you the second most beautiful woman in the world to be your wife, son-in-law.”
The Addicted Spirit, who had been silently listening to us while sitting on my scalp, also helped my cause.
“You look ugly, brother!”
“… But I’m not wrong, am I, sister? You have to admit your niece is pretty…”
“Ugly!”
“…”
“Hehehe! It seems you’re fine, at least. I thought we would never see each other again. I’m so happy that you’re finally back.”
“Sister…”
“But you’re still ugly!”
“Ah, you little—”
Both of them were indeed ugly!
I turned my head and stared at the perfect lady beside me.
If my cowardly wife was the second most beautiful, then Morality Teacher had to be the first.
“Morality Teacher!”
“I didn’t think you’d really come… Hello, President Kang Han Soo.”
She bowed.
Light purple short hair that lightly touched her shoulder and softly curved eyes.
Her leather clothes seemed awkward on her, though, almost as if I gave her the wrong job. Still, she carried herself so well it didn’t really matter.
Overall, she was still the same!
Her innocence, which was far purer than a freshman in college, resonated in my marrow.
So this was love!
“Let’s go on an adventure together like before, Morality Teacher!”
“Hey, son-in-law, don’t you think it’s too shameless even for you to have an affair with someone right in front of your wife’s father?”
“Don’t misunderstand! We’re just continuing our beautiful friendship. Honestly, you should be thanking me. She’s stronger than you, you know.”
“Huh?”
“While you’re only a third-class Demon Lord, she’s a first-class goddess. She would have deleted you from existence had you lay a hand on her.”
“… Really?”
“Yes.”
ã??A certain righteous divine being wants to accompany someone.ã??
ã??A certain kind goddess feels awkward.ã??
He was called the former Demon Lord Pedonar here. However, compared to her, he would’ve been called Villain P if he had gone out into space.
My father-in-law rubbed his nape as he smiled bitterly at her.
“It seems I have good eyes.”
“You’re too optimistic.”
“I don’t know if my son-in-law understands, but I’ve seen a lot of great gods when I was very young. Among them, there was an absurd goddess who could wipe out an entire galaxy with a swing of her pillow.”
ã??A certain innocent goddess wonders who that goddess was.ã??
I thought he was like a frog stuck in a village well, but he actually seemed to have already learned about the universe when he was young.
That aside…
“Morality Teacher! Where are you going?”
“To the Great Child Religion headquarters in the Giant Empire southwest from here. I was commissioned to deliver an important document to the head.”
“You’re planning on walking?”
Wouldn’t it be more efficient for her to deliver it through spatial movement instead?
No, shouldn’t this job be handled by the postman, not the Hero?
“Ah! It seems you’re not aware of it yet since you’re not subject to any restrictions. We can’t use mobility-based abilities such as spatial movement and teleportation here.”
“Why?”
I was actually really curious since I had never been deprived of such a handy feature.
“If in the past, Fantasy was a noisy bookstore, it’s now a national library that demands silence.”
“I don’t quite understand.”
“The difference between the two lies in numbers. When this dimension was torn into hundreds of thousands of fragments, former Director Parmael’s control over each of them became weak. Now that there are only eight, President Kang Han Soo, who dominates time and space, has significantly greater influence over them. In other words, we can’t manipulate those same concepts in Fantasy without your permission or unless we’re a deity of a higher caliber.”
“Oh…”
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
“This brings back memories.”
Hearing her explain this subject kindly reminded me of the exciting adventures we had together when she was still a trainee.
Even if my journey was difficult and problematic, I felt happy every single day because of her…
“Anyway, son-in-law, please keep the fact that I’m here a secret from Ssosia.”
“Hehehe!”
“… That’s too much.”
As soon as he seriously asked me for a favor, the Addicted Spirit laughed at him, causing him to look like he was about to give up.
“Father-in-law.”
“Please pretend you’ve never seen me. As the goddess said, I can’t use my power over space here. It was easy to get in, but I can no longer get out, so you have nothing to worry about.”
“It goes without saying that you can’t escape. When you said you’re atoning for your past atrocities, I immediately realized that. Still, I think you picked the wrong order.”
“Order? Ah! I know the Sword Princess is another one of your wives, but I have no intention of apologizing to her. I acted in self-defense back then—”
“Mother-in-law.”
“…”
“Shouldn’t your priority be to apologize to my mother-in-law for letting her get killed by the adventurers? She’s been bothering me lately since she keeps targeting my body, saying it’s her form of expressing her gratitude for taking revenge on her behalf.”
“Well, that’s…”
Unable to continue his sentence, he broke out in cold sweat.
“After this, go to Adventurer Q’s house in the Southern Continent and ask for an apology.”
The craftsman, who felt that she felt strange, stepped behind her and shouted.
“Wait! I’m not ready yet—”
Pop!
[Demon Realm]
My father-in-law disappeared into the demon realm. I couldn’t let him get in the way of Morality Teacher’s adventure!
Now, only two remained.
“Morality Teacher! No, Morality Hero! Let’s go on an adventure together! This GGG-Class companion will help you accomplish your cumbersome quest!”
“You don’t really have to…”
“There’s no need to refuse!”
Morality Hero and the Righteous Companion set out on an adventure together!
*****
Morality Hero’s combat potential, with her divine power sealed, wasn’t that high.
She wasn’t helpless, but she was struggling against three evil dragons with G-Class skills.
“Chaooo!”
“Daaaaaaaar!”
“Blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Powerful monsters awaited the students in the 8th grade to let them know that aiming for the gods was no trivial task.
Their stats were quite amazing, too.
? Race: Chaos Dragon
? Level: 15324
? Job: Bandit (Mountain → Search ↑)
? Skills: Chaos G, Stealth ZZZ, Blackmail ZZZ, Escape ZZ, Detection ZZ…
? Status: Threat, Enhanced, Casting
Despite being a bandit, their level and skills were high enough to make others cry.
What made matters worse was that G-Class bandits like him were scattered like pebbles all over Fantasy 8.
The natives of this dimension weren’t even born this strong.
They simply developed extremely quickly.
Dragons grew stronger with age, and Fantasy 8’s accelerated time complimented that attribute of theirs.
That was why they had become the dominant species in this world, regardless of whether they were good or evil.
I took a look at the pretty Morality Hero’s stats as she fought against them!
? Race: First Erof
? Level: 11573
? Job: Hero (Experience 500%)
? Skills: Education GG, Swordsmanship GG, Agility G, Teaching Assistant G, Preaching G…
? Status: Good, Moral, Kindness
She was the first Erof I had ever met, a race closely related to elves.
However, compared to Fantasy 8’s standards, her level was quite low, and her skill composition wasn’t specialized in combat.
Still, the fact that she could endure without being pushed back evidenced the combat experience she had accumulated over a long period of time.
Moreover…
“Kindness…?”
Although I already sealed her divine power, it seemed her innate disposition was still expressed through her stats.
Despite several attempts to defeat Morality Hero, the bandits failed to deliver a decisive flow. Instead, they kept flinching and missing their opportunity until they finally lost.
“Chaoo~?!”
“Daaaaar~?!”
“Blaaaa~?!”
It was strangely similar to Fugitive Senior’s [Undefeated] divine power.
“Have you ever heard the saying that it takes winter to realize how green pine and fir trees are? For always stealing from others, you bandits might just lose everything one day too! Keep that in mind in your next life.”
Swoosh!
Morality Hero left them a word of advice before cutting them down.
The whole time I watched from the sidelines, I was so captivated that I couldn’t help but applaud her.
“That was amazing, Morality Hero!”
“Not really… In the past, I used to spare my foes whenever possible, but ever since I witnessed the President’s adventure, I have become a little bit tougher. Through you, I learned that if we forgive evil, it would be unfair for those they had already committed injustice and atrocities towards.”
Oh…
Her philosophy was so good that I saw no flaws in it.
But as her GGG-Class Companion, I raised a question I had been meaning to ask while cleaning up the bandits’ carcasses for her.
“Morality Hero.”
“Please just call me the way you usually do. The True Hero giving me such a title doesn’t sit right with me.”
I couldn’t do that.
Admiring her beautiful yet seemingly shy appearance, I continued.
“I’ve already asked this before, but why are you trying to become a teacher in the Fantasy Institution?”
My establishment was a rural school.
It was too shabby for a sophisticated urban beauty like Moral Hero to work in.
“My position as a teacher is just a means to meet my objective, which is to teach as many students as I can. However, there are already many excellent educators on planets and dimensions like El Mollando, so I decided to go to a more rural area, where many beings are still marginalized and miseducated.”
She was right.
Parents with secondary and tertiary course students moved to the capital for the level of edification they offered.
That was proof that people had always been biased against rural schools when it came to education.
“That’s why I came to Fantasy.”
“Ah…”
Wasn’t Morality Hero just far too kind?
ã??A certain restless demonic god calls someone a pushover.ã??
He should stop getting in my way!
After all, I felt truly in love this time.
