NOVEL NEXT Chapter 67: Ah, She Wasn’t a Fish… Great!
(Celia’s POV)
Eventually, after diving for hours, I came across my target. Ah… so, such creatures still live in this dimension, huh? Swimming beside it, there was an overly large shark, which would probably be called a megalodon.
Faith: “What a big fish…” She added.
Celia: “A big fish, indeed. By the way, our girl of a target is inside of it…” I inform.
Faith: “So… you have to kill it? Good luck with that! Though it looks like some animal, that thing is probably some holy tier monster.” She replied with a chuckle.
Girl… you do realize that, if I die, then you die, right? Ah, she probably wouldn’t even care. After all, she did die before. And, without a body, Faith doesn’t have much attachment to living at the moment. Now, why don’t I inspect this bad boy?

Celia: “It’s a sin to kill it?” I say with a shocked tone.
Faith: “So it would seem. Not that it matters, though. You do realize how many sins you’ve piled up in your life, right? Just start the fight already!” She demanded.
Celia: “But…” My words were cut off.
Faith: “Look at it! Though it is a god, it doesn’t have a soul. It is just a glorified animal! Besides, with its age, I can tell that it only has a few more years left to live. All you’re doing is… just giving Xinobouk an early rest.” She lectured.
Celia: “…”
Is this really alright? I mean, yeah. Xinobouk clearly doesn’t have a soul, and it is just a very powerful and old animal. But… I like animals. Do I really have to fight it?
Faith: “Right… I forgot that you like animals a lot. You did seem so damn interested in that aquarium…” She said with a sigh.
Celia: “I do, yes. Unless I have to, I prefer to not kill animals.” I reply.
Even with those animals that tried to kill Kumoko while she was eating, or those wolves that tore Iri apart, I didn’t kill them. Why? Because I love women and animals, and prefer not to injure any of them, unless I am absolutely forced to do so.
Faith: “If you won’t fight this shark, then what can we even do? Don’t worry, we have time. After all, it’s not like you’ll drown from waiting too long.” She asked with a serious tone.
Celia: “Well, yeah. I did learn a spell that allows me to breathe underwater a while back… Do you have any ideas, Faith? Considering how long you’ve lived, you should have some good ideas stored up in that pretty head of yours…” I ask with a curious tone.
Faith: “Okay, I have a great idea.” She said with a serious.
Celia: “What is it? Don’t leave me hanging. This guy could choose to fight me any second now…” I ask with a desperate tone.
Faith: “Just let the big sharkie eat you, silly.” She answered with a giggle.
Celia: “╭( ๐_๐)╮”
