Kato Megumi wants to learn magic

The owner of the memory, this highly respected magician happens to be a magician who studies time and space. He had previously obtained a bead of unknown function. After his judgment, he concluded that the bead came from another world outside this world.

So he proposed a solution, which was to use the faint breath of time and space on the beads, gather everyone's strength, create a time and space gate, and allow the magicians to migrate to another world.

When this proposal came out, some people opposed it and some agreed. At that time, portals were already everywhere and everyone had done a thorough study of space, but people still didn't know much about time.

But even so, faced with a helpless situation, the magicians finally agreed to the proposal.

When people are in desperate situations, their potential will be fully explored. After a long period of research, the Gate of Time and Space was finally discovered. Rather than a Gate of Time and Space, it is more like a space passage that has been opened up to another world.

The moment the Space-Time Gate was discovered, ancient magicians celebrated and were happy for the birth of hope.

However, they did not know that this was the arrival of disaster.

At the moment when the gate of time and space was truly opened, countless void creatures from other worlds felt the breath from other worlds, and a bridge was built between the worlds, forming a pipeline, and countless terrible void creatures were wandering around the bridge. These void creatures sensed the appearance of the pipeline, pierced the pipeline, and followed the pipeline to come to this world.

So when the magicians opened the gate of time and space, what they welcomed was not a hopeful future, but terrifying creatures from the void.

The result is predictable. Facing the powerful void creatures, the ancient magicians were killed or injured, and almost all of them were wiped out. The war lasted for decades, and in the end the void creatures were driven away by the gods, and all the magicians were wiped out.

The owner of the memory, the ancient magician who proposed the gate of time and space, felt guilty and sad, and at the same time extremely resentful, resentful of why the gods did not take action, and why they took action only at the last minute.

Is it because they are pawns in the game that they are not worth it?

While the magician was feeling resentful, he was also researching how to improve the Space-Time Gate. In his later years… he finally solved the problem of the Space-Time Gate. People no longer needed to fear alien creatures when traveling through the Space-Time Gate. However, by that time, magicians had already declined, and he was the only real magician left.

So he hid the door of time and space and passed down his memory.

"Hmm... So the intention of this kind of curse is very clear. If you want to use the time-space gate, you must swear an oath and come back after you have learned enough to avenge him? Revenge on the gods?"

"Hmm... it should be as you said, Miss Witch... but I didn't expect that the decline of ancient magicians was due to this."

Kato Megumi sighed softly.

"But why don't the gods help them? Logically speaking, the void creatures have invaded this world, so they shouldn't just stand by and watch."

Kato Megumi asked.

"Ah~" Patchouli blinked, "You may have to ask the gods about this."

Patchouli raised her eyebrows slightly and turned her head to glance at the door behind her.

"Why don't you ask the Earth Mother Goddess who has been hiding in the dark? As the person involved, she should know why, right?"

"Eh!!?"

As Patchouli finished her words, a ray of light suddenly appeared in an empty space nearby. The light was dim at first, as bright as a firefly, then gradually became brighter and brighter, spreading gradually, and finally formed a human-shaped light.

It was as if the sky had fallen and the space became distorted. Kato Megumi and Eriri felt a tightness in their chests and they were having trouble breathing. Even the light seemed to disappear and they could not see into the distance at all.

This is the power of God, a figure that mortals cannot look directly at.

Unlike the isolated power they had seen in the prayer room before, what appeared before their eyes now was the real God, God's incarnation, the projection of God in the underworld. It could not be looked at directly, could not be heard, could not be perceived. There was only a ray of light, vaguely appearing before their eyes.

"Ah~ This is not a friendly way to leave... Are you angry because I called you out?"

Patchouli raised her voice and spoke teasingly, while with her other hand she gently tapped the foreheads of the man and the cat.

Kato Megumi and Eriri finally stopped feeling dizzy.

When they looked up, they no longer had that dizzy feeling. They could only vaguely perceive a ray of light in front of them, a light that did not exist at all but made people feel its presence.

It's like a visual mirage, like a scorching sun in the soul.

"Miss Witch... this... what is going on."

Kato Megumi subconsciously hid behind Patchouli and asked.

Who could have thought that the gods were actually beside them? What did she want to do? What was her conspiracy?

"Meow!"

Eriri was also startled and quickly jumped from Patchouli's arms into Kato Megumi's arms. She didn't want to face this god. It was too scary. The feeling just now was like she was going to die. There was no feeling, no consciousness, no sound, just like falling into the abyss. It was too scary!

"I'm sorry, the rules of this place are a bit special. I didn't control my power well. Please forgive me, my guest from another world."

A majestic voice reached the hearts of the man and the cat.

"Uh-huh, do you understand?"

Patchouli was not at all frightened by the fact that there was a god in front of her. She just casually played with the ends of her hair with her index finger while answering.

"It's not impossible to forgive, so can this Earth Mother take the little thing from the little guy, huh? That way I can think that you have no bad intentions, right?"

As soon as Patchouli finished speaking, the god did not speak, but waved his hand.

Kato Megumi only felt that his spiritual sea suddenly lit up, and a ray of light suddenly appeared from somewhere, then jumped out of the spiritual sea and returned to the palm of the god.

"I have agreed to your request."

Kato Megumi was shocked. She had already realized what that ball of light was. It was the system that had been damaged.

She thought the system was damaged, but who would have thought that it still existed in her mind and she was unaware of it.

"What's up, little guy? Are you scared? Now you know that not everything can be put into the soul!"

"Hmm, got it."

Kato Megumi nodded with lingering fear. It is true that one cannot keep everything in the soul. If the other party really attacks him, it will be hard to defend against it.

"Miss Witch... why..."

Seeing Kato Megumi asking hesitantly, Patchouli answered nonchalantly.

"Are you wondering why the gods followed you here? Of course they have a purpose. What do you think it is?"

"Could it be a gate of time and space!?"

"Ah, that's right!"

Patchouli gave a definite answer.

"So that's how it is." Kato Hui suddenly realized. She remembered that the magician in her memory seemed to have used a special method to hide the door of time and space, so in order to find the door of time and space, the gods followed behind her, but "then why..."

Kato Megumi asked in confusion.

After Patchouli's explanation, Kato Megumi knew that the gods of this world were not truly omniscient and omnipotent, so it was okay for them not to know the existence of the Space-Time Gate. But why did the other party want to find the Space-Time Gate? Was it for invasion, or something else?

After all, there is a new world on the other side of the time and space gate, so it’s hard not to be excited.

Seeing Kato Megumi looking thoughtful, Patchouli knocked on her head to stop her wandering thoughts.

"What are you thinking about? In front of God, your little thoughts are clearly visible."

"what……"

Kato Megumi was stunned for a moment, then she remembered that God seemed to have the power to see through people's hearts, so she quickly pursed her lips and collected her thoughts.

Seeing Kato Megumi being so well-behaved, Patchouli nodded her forehead helplessly, and then looked at the silent god beside her.

"What is the purpose? I believe that the Earth Mother Goddess should be able to explain it to us, the visitors from another world? Hmm?"

Hearing Patchouli say this, the man and the cat turned their gazes towards the Earth Mother.

"If you want to listen, then there is no problem. My reason for coming here is very simple, that is to destroy the gate of time and space and eliminate the unstable factors."

"Ah! This..."

Seeing the surprised looks of the man and the cat, the Earth Mother Goddess did not say anything but continued.

"This is the playground we created. We don't need to connect with other worlds and bring uncertainty to this world."

At this moment, Kato Megumi felt a gaze looking at her, her body stiffened, and then she heard the Earth Mother Goddess say.

"The small world has no effect on me. You can rest assured that I am not a low-level life form. Naturally, I do not have the so-called defects of low-level life forms. I will not invade out of greed."

After all, for a god at this level, creating a world is a bit troublesome but not a difficult task. How could a mere small world attract her attention!

"Ah, so it is..."

Patchouli said casually, obviously already knowing the answer.

People who can create rules follow the rules and maintain the rules will naturally want to eliminate unstable factors such as the space-time gate if possible. This is also natural.

"Then why didn't you destroy it when it was first created? Then this wouldn't have happened... The ancient magicians wouldn't have..."

Eriri, nestling in Kato Megumi's arms, asked the question. She could see that the Earth Mother Goddess seemed to have a very gentle attitude, and they also had this powerful witch by their side, so Eriri became bolder.

Could it be that the other party is afraid that the magicians will grow to a certain size and become a threat to them, so they take advantage of this opportunity to do all these things?

"And you destroyed the space-time gate, how can we leave!"

Original Goblin Slayer: Chapter 294 Chapter Patchouli Never Suffers Losses

As soon as Ying Lili finished speaking, she felt an extremely oppressive gaze glanced at her and quickly shrank her neck.

So scary!!! The cat was scared to death.

Patchouli found this behavior a little funny. In fact, Eriri didn't need to be so scared. How could the gods care about the thoughts and attitudes of weak ants?

As expected, the Earth Mother just glanced at Eriri who asked the question and then said.

"There is no effect without a cause, and we will not destroy the cause just because the effect does not yet exist."

What this sentence means is that the space-time gate has not caused instability. Even if it is predicted that this gate will destroy stability in the future, the gods will not eliminate the source in advance because of its instability.

It was stable before so the gods didn't care, but now that the gate of time and space is unstable, the gods are ready to take action.

"Why do you weak humans need my attention? Their demise is their own. This is their inevitable fate. This is the rule."

Everything is predetermined by fate. Everything that rises must fall. The system that relies on magic will eventually be destroyed due to the disappearance of magic.

Of course, there is one thing that Mother Earth did not say, that is, regardless of whether the creatures from the void come or not, they will not allow the magicians to go to another world.

Magicians rely on magic power. So many magicians contain one tenth of the magic power of this world. If such a huge amount of magic power suddenly disappears at such a critical moment and goes to another world, it will inevitably destroy the cycle of the world. Therefore, no matter what, the fate of the magicians is doomed.

The world provides for them, and they must give back to the world.

"As for you, the visitors from other worlds, I will destroy the gate of time and space after you leave, so there is no need to worry."

The Earth Mother made a promise. Her words were smooth, as if all this was natural and the decline of ancient magic was inevitable. The indifference and disapproval in her words touched Kato Megumi deeply.

She didn't know what to say, and countless complicated thoughts surged in her heart. Was it pity, sighing, or confusion?

All kinds of emotions brewed in her heart, and Kato Hui felt a complicated feeling in her heart. Such a powerful era just fell like this, just simply because the cornerstone of their system disappeared.

So this is why Miss Witch despises the magic system of this world? Without the source of magic power and without promotion to transcendence, a magician is always a mortal, and even before he enters the door, once the power he relies on for survival disappears, he becomes a cattle and sheep to be slaughtered.

Kato Megumi couldn't help but sigh, and then was stunned again.

Actually, there is no need for her to sigh. When she was accepting the memory before, if it weren't for the help of the witch lady, she might have been forced to sign a contract to avenge the other party.

Isn't she the same as them? Fortunately, she has a lot of power to use, and there is a source of mutated magic power in her body, which makes her a little stronger than them.

"Ms. Witch, now..."

Should we open the door of time and space?

Kato Megumi's unfinished words expressed this meaning. The magician's memory also told her how to open the door of time and space. Now the other party needs to destroy this thing, and they need this thing to leave here.

But the current situation is that the other party is a god. Kato Megumi doesn't know whether to wait a while before opening it, or open it now. She feels a little conflicted.

"Hmm? Sure, you can open it now..."

Patchouli tapped her forehead with her index finger and smiled.

"But don't worry, at least you have to do what you need to do and collect some interest."

Under Kato Megumi's puzzled expression, Patchouli suddenly looked at the Earth Mother Goddess.

"Speaking of which, the more perfect the rules of this world are, the harder it is for the power of gods to interfere with this world! You want to interfere but you are afraid that the world cannot bear the power, so you use this little guy to achieve your goal."

"Although it is a win-win situation, it is obvious that my people are at a disadvantage. After all, you only gave up an identity, while the little guy has been busy and helped your temple. He also went through untold hardships to come here. I am talking about this god from another world."
