The royal court had completely changed into Goddess Astoria's domain. Rin wondered if this was another illusion, but the pressure he felt from the goddess in front of him was real.
The goddess gestured for Shuu to take a seat she had conjured up with her magic, but Rin kept his distance.
It made the goddess look disappointed, but she waved her hand and the chair disappeared into thin air.
"Since you don't want my hospitality, I can only assume that you have something serious to discuss with me. I am all ears. You can speak when you want to."
Goddess Astoria said as she leaned back in her chair and allowed Shuu to speak.
Shuu kept an eye on her mood and finally asked the question he had wanted to ask ever since he found himself in her domain.
"What am I doing here? What do you want from me?"
he asked, and the Goddess blinked at him with an amused but shocked expression.
