Chapter 7: The Spirit Deity
Chapter 7: The Spirit Deity
When the demon Mira left, we could finally go to the common well to draw water from it but we heard a voice calling “Wait please”. But there is only a dry well in our garden, apparently it was coming from the well.
While thinking as such, a transparent woman came floating from the well.
“Are you a ghost?”
She’s quite fitting with these ruins.
“Master is calm, how are you not afraid? It’s a ghost, a g-h-o-s-t!”
“Fueee, we’re being cursed.”
“Well calm down, don’t you think humans are more scarier? If you think like that then you wouldn’t be scared of ghosts.”
“Even if you put it like that…”
“Impossible, Masatsuga please hold us tightly together!”
Sigh, they are strong but at the end they are still children. They are kinda cute when they are being scared of ghosts. It seems that I am still necessary to them.
“So, who are you? We are going to draw water after this. Since my skill has no indication of activating, it seems you aren’t a evil spirit.”

“Yes, first of all I am not an evil spirit. I am this continents manifestion of water spirits in other words a Spirit Deity. Calling me Shii-chan is okay, I’m sort of an huge deal!”
A Spirit Deity, huh. Another outrageous being has came.
“So, what does this Spirit Goddess want?”
“Ehm, thanks to you purifying this lands impurity, the seal on this land has been removed and I’ve been revived. It’s been 1000 years, originally it should be impossible to remove the impurity that has continued to seal me for so long in just a few days. You’re really amazing, are you really not a God disguising as a human?”
“I am nothing like a God who can’t do anything, I’m fully fledged human.”
“That’s right, even God couldn’t remove the curse. You… were called Masatsuga-sama? Masatsuga-sama perhaps has exceeded God?”
“It matters little, whether I have exceeded or not. More than that, I need to go to the common well to draw water.
“On top of it you’re free of greed and stoical. If you are truly human be more boisterous!”
“I’m not dissatisfied with my humanity.”
“Muu, you’ve no interest at all. I see, hmmm, okay Masatsugu-san I decided it’s you!”
Wha?
“A Spirit Deity is allowed to have one partner in their entire life, so I said I’ve decided it’s you! You might become a Spirit deity aswell? You’ll be an existance something between a God and Spirit. Since it’s you your power and spirit are both plenty of qualified for it. How about it?”
“I’ve no interest in it. Please go ask somebody else, besides I don’t know about God or Spirit Deity but there are a lot who want it.”
“Having such desires is no good. They have no qualifications if they are not kind as you and strong. I beg of you, please think about it a lot more. I’ve finally found you who has the qualifications to live together with me. This is really, really big deal, normally you should’ve jumped at it?”
“And I said that I don’t care about it and I have no interest in it. Whatsoever for me now is to know how to manage this orphanage properly.”
“Eeh, that cannot be. Being spiritual is the best, you know? There is a possibility to become a god.”
“I’ve no need of it. I’ve no desire to be a God, I don’t have such free time. Now it’s time for me to go draw water, so go back to where you come from.”
At my words the Spirit Deity Shii started weeping.
“*sob* But I’m an Spirit Deity. I am the will of the world who controls controls over water. I see! I understand! I’ll show you how much of a great existance I am. I’ll make this dried well be usable again! From it crystal water will come out so you don’t have to go! How about it? So don’t throw away the spirit, please don’t say like “go back”. Forget about being my partner, how about me just staying close to you?”
“Aah, I give up. Okay, okay. I’ll allow you to stay here, so stop crying. Using the well again will definitely be helpful.”
When I said that, Shii face changed from a tear-stained face to a bright smile and expressed her thanks.
“Really? Shii is useful? Ehehehe, thank you, Masatsuga-san is really kind!”
She said that while smiling. Something is amiss here.
“Ah, I forgot but now that the impurity is gone and I’m here this whole region will now get better. Until now this place was cursed so vegetables couldn’t be grown and the well was dried but now it’s resolved. But in reverse the place where the kings and nobles live will now be more harsher. Since the impurity was cleansed here now it will collect itself there and curse the land.”
“Those nobles and royalty knew fully where they brought to me, so this might be their poetic justice.”
“That’s right. This time probably the cursed land will call forth unfortunate accidents and you can see zombies and ghosts appearing there. The crops will die, the water will corrode, it will be a very haphazard place.”
Is that so. Well the people there will have to do by themselves. The curse that was in this place was dealt by the people who lived here, so the curse there will be solved by the King and nobles besides my classmates live in the castle aswell. All human’s are equal, isn’t this a great thing?
“Ehm, Master, I’m sorry for interrupting you in your talk. I have something to talk with Shii-chan about.”
“That’s right Masatsuga-sama, we have something to talk as fellow women, that’s why we’ll borrow her for a little.”
They said that and pulled Shia with them towards the back of the building. Before I knew it she changed into human form. She seems to be a normal pretty girl, still I wonder what they are talking about.
When they came back Shii had empty eyes and was grumpling “I’m 3rd woman… I’m a Spirit Deity yet… 3rd woman”, I have no clue what she was on about.
With that, Shii also joined us and the 4 of us began living together and 1 week later, on the timing of when we all finished dinner in the living room the demon Mika came again.
As I was thinking about it, the request which I accepted from the Demon Country appeared saying “Please conclude the NAP agreement.”
