I was accidentally injured by God and I just want to be an ordinary person

Ah, it’s time for the usual postscript again (you haven’t written one for several volumes!). I wonder if you readers are satisfied with the content of the fifth volume. Well, anyway, I’m very grateful for being able to read this far.

Looking back, this book took me nearly half a year to write. If I'm not mistaken, the next sixth volume will reach one million words. Ah, according to the original plan of 8 words per volume, it should be almost finished now, but it's not even halfway to 233.

Ahem, now let's talk about the plot. In volume five, Ella gained the dragons' trust and helped them escape the crisis of the sea beasts' active period. In the end, she was even saved by Iris!!! (She shed tears of envy). Overall, all the characters in volume five were very active, from Fukagan, who constantly called Ella "senpai" at the Christmas picnic, to Angelina, who crashed into Wedge with the Deep Sea Lord at the end. Only Lotte seemed to be missing a bit of a role, which Yomi will fill in in the next volume. It's safe to say that in the next volume, Ella's biggest desire is Lotte.

One thing I must mention is that Yomi plans to add illustrations to the sixth volume. If nothing goes wrong, there will definitely be one, but where it will be inserted is still under discussion. Dear readers, please stay tuned~

Well, now it’s time for the customary words of thanks.

First, I'd like to thank editor Tia for her story revisions. Then, I'd like to thank Cai Miao_ for all the character designs and future illustrations. Finally, I'd like to express my deepest gratitude to all the readers who have read this far! Arigato!

I am so grateful for your support from the beginning till now!

Well, see you in Volume 6~

PS: There are more and more fan works in the group. I would like to thank the reader "Blank Space" for his efforts (I will never say that there are any mysterious contents in it!).

Chapter 1: Ruti's Favorite Things

*创世纪6187年1月21日 下午16:40分 至圣学院

Located in the center of the continent, the Holy Academy, which reconciles conflicts among countries in the name of eliminating the Seal of Original Sin, has a school year divided into three semesters. Now, in mid-January, it is the beginning of the third semester of the Holy Academy.

The Holy Academy was covered with heavy snow in winter. Even though it was already afternoon, the sunlight shining through the thick clouds on the earth looked very pale, only making the skin feel slightly warm. The soft snow made a crackling sound when stepped on, which normally would be a comfortable sound, but Ella had no intention of appreciating it at all.

Ella tightened the scarf around her smooth neck, wrapped in a maroon coat, clasped her hands together, and kept breathing into her palms, her voice trembling.

"Phew—it's so cold... I really want to go back soon."

"Miss Ella is really afraid of the cold."

In contrast to Ella's curled-up appearance, Lotte, who was walking down the street in her long uniform skirt, seemed completely unfazed. She placed her hands in front of her, carrying her schoolbag as she followed Ella.

It was a week ago that they returned to the Holy Academy. Now it is the third day after the official start of the school. Tina and the Deep Sea Lord chose to stay on Dragon Island, while the rest of the people, including the little girl and the maid, all returned safely and intact. Although the Dragon King Fuos still stuffed countless magic props into their hands before leaving, they had already handed them all over to Camisia to transfer them to the Demon Clan's treasury.

I had originally thought that Camisia would say something like, "This is the princess's personal belongings and cannot be mixed with the property of the demons." However, I didn't expect Camisia to have no objections at all. She simply treated this matter as an ordinary meal and accepted it without hesitation - even though what she said at the time did concern me.

"The princess's personal property has increased again... What? Does that mean the entire demon clan's treasury belongs to me? No, that's not so outrageous, is it?"

While banishing the outrageous thoughts that had arisen in her mind, Ella gradually slowed down and turned her head to look at Lotte beside her.

"Speaking of which, what did Instructor Yajie say during today's practical class? Remember, Lotte isn't good at one-on-many combat."

Although Lotte's destructive power can reach the highest level of the third order if given sufficient distance, and Hela can also use area magic such as "Explosive Bomb", "Lightning Direct Strike" and "Ice Fang Storm", once the distance is very close and the opponent has a powerful shield warrior, Lotte will find it difficult to exert her ability.

For example, in today's practical class, when Loti used Hela to snipe the magic caster first, she was blocked by the opponent's shield character. Although the shield warrior lost his combat effectiveness, Loti was also judged by Yajie as having lost the battle because Hela took too long to reload the magic, allowing the opponent's magic caster to finish chanting.

She smiled bitterly and nodded slightly, and the lavender twintails behind Lotte swayed.

"Well, Teacher Yajie said that our offense is sufficient, but our countermeasures to magic are limited. However, we won't encounter such a situation again. With Miss Ella here, no magic can penetrate our defenses."

"It's not a good thing for Luty to be so cautious, huh?"

Because someone suddenly patted her on the back, Ruthie turned around immediately and said with a smile after seeing Angelica's energetic and clear eyes like sapphires.

"Ms. Angelina has also returned from the Adventurer's Guild."

"Yeah, those guys are really looking forward to my return to restock their 'Mutated Black Tea'. I just sent a big bucket and got two gold coins for it. ——Oh, no, that's not what I was talking about. If Lotte-chan is missing magic armor, why don't you just tell her directly? Ella-chan won't mind."

Angeline first stuffed the two gold coins into her pocket, then hugged Lotte's right arm in an intimate manner. Her long brown hair jumped up behind her because of her sudden behavior, revealing her covered pointed ears. Her energetic appearance at all times made Ella feel a little dazzling.

"But what about magic armor... I didn't think much of it before, thinking I had 'Hymn of the Spirits' as my battle attire, but most people can't wear combat attire all the time. For now, I can automatically change armor when switching characters, but Lotte needs time to prepare, and the defense limit of 'Hymn of the Spirits' is also worth considering. I was really negligent..."

The reason Lotte said she didn't need to defend herself with Ella around was simply because she didn't want to burden her. Generally speaking, any item related to magic was priced in gold. Lotte already had the lightweight and highly defensive "Elf's Blessing." If she wanted to add some magic defense, she had to choose accessories, and accessories happened to be the most valuable type of armor.

Even the most common "Fire-Proof Necklace" on the market, which can reduce fire damage, costs at least 20 gold coins each, which is enough for an ordinary family of three to live on for half a year. Not to mention that if it were Ella who chose, she would definitely buy a top-level accessory for herself - which would definitely cost an unimaginable amount of gold coins or even gem coins. For Ella, who is completely unwilling to accept the use of materials from the demon clan, it would definitely be a very difficult thing. Therefore, Luti never mentioned this and tried her best to avoid such situations.

Being hit on the spot, Luty straightened up slightly, an anxious look appeared on her face, and even the tone of her voice lost its usual reserved feeling.

"How could that be? Even a third-tier spell couldn't break the 'Elf's Blessing' that Miss Ella gave us. Instructor Yajie said our defenses against magic were insufficient, but that's simply because training doesn't involve actually subjecting people to magical attacks. With the level of that magic caster just now, there's no way they could have broken through our defenses."

"Ah~ah, Lotte is really mean. As a maid, she clearly lacked protective gear, but she didn't tell her master. So that's why those people said 'the demon queen abused her subordinates'. That's really too much."

Ella covered her eyes with her hands and twitched her nose twice.

——This was just the result of me pretending to be like this. Iris had done something similar in the past, and now I was just imitating her. But after all, this kind of behavior was very common in the beautiful girl games I played before. Even I could tell at a glance that I was joking. So with Lotte's intelligence, it would be easy for her to tell that I was lying. As for the words "The Demon Queen is abusing her subordinates", they were just something I said casually.

But Ella didn't realize that if it was her, Lotte would easily choose to believe it without thinking.

"No, that's not the case! Miss Ella, I'm not hiding anything intentionally. It's just that you haven't even equipped yourself with such precious jewelry. How can I, as your subordinate, make any demands? And anyone who says that must be deliberately slandering you. There's absolutely no one else in the world who treats slaves the way you do—"

[Ahahaha… I think I went a little too far with my prank…]

Facing Lotte, who was waving her hands in panic, Ella stretched out her mittened hands and placed them on Lotte's shoulders.

"Calm down for a moment, I was just joking. But I'll take Lotte's lack of accessories and armor into consideration, so don't worry, Lotte."

"but……"

"Yeah, didn't Ryan give me a book on weapon forging a while ago? If it's written in the common language of the continent, even I can try to make it, right?"

Using a gentle tone to comfort Lotte, who was about to say something, Ella withdrew her hands, patted them, and exhaled a white mist with a warm breath.

Although there are many suitable props in his warehouse, they all require a certain level to wear, and the minimum level is at least three digits, so they can only be obtained from the current world.

"Isn't that too much for Lotte? Well, if Lotte thinks the accessories I made are too simple, it's fine to ask Camisia to buy a suitable one."

"That, that kind of thing will never happen! How could I refuse something from Miss Ella? Even in a dream, it wouldn't happen!"

"So you agree?"

After being stunned for a moment, Lotte nodded.

“Hmm…yes…”

She stammered, hiding her flushed cheeks in her white scarf.

Seeing this scene, Angelini put her hands on her hips and said with satisfaction.

"Yeah, that's all right, Ella-chan. It's up to you."

"Leave it to me."

The two pairs of clear eyes, whose tricks had succeeded, looked at each other, then stretched out their hands and clapped them together.

"Ah, it hurts... Angelica, it's winter, please be gentler!"

Ella kept blowing on her palm which was in pain because of Angelini's excessive force. Crystal clear liquid appeared in the corner of her eyes and was then wiped away by the handkerchief beside her.

"Eh? Lotte?"

Originally, Ella thought that Lotte would ignore her temporarily because she was shy, but now it seems that is not the case.

"Miss Ella is always so mean in this regard."

With her face still blushing, Lotte slowly put her handkerchief back, tilted her head to look at the snow pile on the roadside, and then added in a faint voice that only she could hear.

"But...I like it the most."

Chapter 2: Secret Talks and Preparations

*创世纪6187年1月21日 下午17:21分 至圣学院

This is a luxurious room.

In the center of the room stands a broad and sturdy wooden table. Although it is not overly carved, it gives people a sense of security. The soft sofa and the handmade carpet on the floor are both carefully prepared. Light and elegant classical music flows in the room, accompanied by the pervasive aroma of honey. This is probably the so-called aristocratic room.

Wadong walked to the window and drew the curtains. The winter night came quickly. If the curtains were not drawn, the room illuminated by the pale yellow light would be visible at a glance. Most nobles might think that this would highlight their nobility and deliberately leave the curtains open to enjoy the envious gazes of the common people. However, Wadong, who was born into a common family, did not like this, and the current place was not suitable for this.

There was a rustling sound of cloth being pulled. Wadong took a satisfied look at the room that was completely isolated from the outside world, then sat down on the sofa with a carefree attitude. Due to his too strong figure, the whole sofa made a creaking groan.

"How was your trip to Dragon Island? I'm super busy here with the Seal of Sin."

Although the words sounded somewhat dissatisfied, they actually contained a kind of teasing tone. Wadong patted his thigh and spoke to the silver-haired girl who had been sitting opposite him on the sofa.

The girl was wearing a one-piece black uniform dress, which set off her pure silver hair that flowed down like silk. From her slightly exposed neck, it could be seen that the girl had skin as flawless as porcelain. Unfortunately, only a little of this infinitely charming part was exposed, and the rest was completely hidden by the black neckline covered with a lot of folds. Perhaps because she was wearing a uniform, the bulge on her chest that symbolized her femininity was too prominent, but surprisingly, it did not arouse any evil thoughts. If she had worn an evening dress that deliberately highlighted her chest, perhaps countless men and even some women would have fallen for her. But now, from the elegant temperament exuded by the girl's every move, one could only think that she was a person who had been engraved with the stigma of nobility since birth.

Leaning forward slightly, Iris placed her elbows on the table, supported her chin with her left hand, and tapped the table lightly with her right hand.

"Travel? That's quite interesting, isn't it? As for the Seal of Original Sin, isn't it natural for the academy principal to take care of that?"

Although he frowned repeatedly at the title of "Dean" which was obviously a mockery of him, this was Iris's usual practice. Wadong, who was already somewhat accustomed to it, chose to ignore it and reached out to touch the bald head that reflected the round color.

"Quite interesting? That's a great compliment. It's rare for Iris to say it's interesting. Did you gain anything? Did you level up?"

"Leveled up? That was supposed to happen, but then something happened and I went back to level 34. But reaching the hero realm was inevitable, so it's no big deal."

"You're still saying it's interesting after being demoted... Could it be that there's progress in love? Hohohoho, who is that kid—"

At this point, Wadong paused immediately. Based on his understanding of Iris, the person she liked would definitely not be a man, so the term "little girl" should be used here instead of "boy". He picked up the wine glass on the table to hide his embarrassment, drank it in one gulp and continued to replenish.

"Which little girl is so lucky to be favored by our Miss Iris? She won't have to worry about her life forever."

Wadong's teasing stopped Iris from tapping the table with her knuckles. She raised one eyebrow and looked a little dissatisfied.

"Enough of the small talk. Why did you call me here this time? The Seal of Original Sin?"

"Hmm? Ah, yes."

Talking about this problem that gave him a headache, Wadong picked up the bottle of low-alcohol wine on the table and poured himself a glass.

"Last time, you mentioned that the Seal of Original Sin existed in the Kingdom of Barris, so I went to investigate. I didn't expect to find some clues. I even suspected that you had secretly learned divination."

"That's just information I got from Ella-chan."

"That little guy?"

"You're not the little brat you used to be. If Camisia hears you, she'll give you a beating."

Iris slightly raised the corners of her mouth and revealed a mischievous look, constantly moving the teaspoon in the cup to mix the red wine - adding many special bitter cubes.

Perhaps Iris's words brought back some bad memories. Wadong touched his nose awkwardly, laughed dryly, and turned the topic back on track.

"Should I call her the Demon Queen now? Demon Queen, I've known for a long time that she's no ordinary person, hahahaha... Regarding the Seal of Original Sin, I'd like to pass on the information I've uncovered to King Zeos of the Barris Kingdom. Since it involves internal affairs, to avoid causing any trouble, I'll just hand it over to them and let them handle it themselves."

"Emperor Zeos? Is it Tovasan Miasaka Zeos? But is it about internal affairs... Did someone use the Seal of Original Sin?"

"We haven't yet investigated whether we're exploiting or being exploited, but that's how we handle it."

As he said this, Wadong leaned back in his chair. The buttons on his clothes broke because of his rough behavior, but this was a common occurrence, so Iris did not use it as a handle to tease him.

"So? You didn't come to me just to report some news, did you?"

"Haha, I really can't hide it from you. This is what I was going to tell you next. I want you and the Demon Queen to go to the Kingdom of Barris together and deliver the letter to Emperor Zeos."

Stopping her hand that was holding the wine glass, Iris looked at Wadong with an expression that said, "Is there something wrong with his mind?"

"Ask me to go with the Demon Queen? And after school has already started. Even if the contents of the letter are very important, there are people who are more suitable than us, right? Or do you have some other purpose—"

The voice gradually lowered, and Iris, who finally understood Wadong's purpose, raised her eyebrows and slowly drank the light red liquid in the glass. Wadong couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly at her dazzling white neck - of course, he did so just because he thought it looked good, and had no other purpose. In Wadong's own opinion, even if he never got married, he would not choose Iris. That kind of personality was the type he could never deal with. He still preferred more natural women, not to mention that he already had Lily now.

Putting the wine glass back on the wooden table, Iris pushed the hair that had fallen to her forehead to one side.

"I see... I get it, but what about the compensation? It would be unreasonable not to give you an adequate reward, right?"

"As for the reward—"

"Let's discuss this when I go find Ella-chan. You don't need those things anyway."

Interrupting Wadong's words, Iris stood up.

"Hey, if you don't give me a specific amount, I can't agree. What if you ask for the 'God's Crystal' later? I can't decide on that kind of rare thing by myself."

With one hand on her chest and her index finger supporting her chin, Iris tilted her head slightly and pretended to be thinking, and finally gave a reply in the expectant eyes of Wadong.

"I'll tell you later. If Aira-chan doesn't agree, then there's nothing to be done, okay?"

Ignoring Wadong's attempt to call her, Iris waved her hand and walked out of the room.

Wadong was the only one left in the room, with only the lively music playing from the magic props echoing. Wadong sighed deeply and raised his glass again.

"Huh—Isn't that halfway to success? I just don't know how much it's going to cost. Well, never mind. If it succeeds, spending a little more resources won't hurt."
