I opened my eyes to a gentle breeze. Looking outside, the day was just beginning to break.
"Huh, look at that fog."
The fog was quite thick. But rather than being eerie, the atmosphere itself was mysterious and dreamlike.
The blowing wind and the air I breathed were different from usual.
It was truly unique.
I looked down at the sleeping Goddess. Without realizing it, I stroked her hair.
It was soft. Perhaps because of the wind, it felt cool. And it was fragrant.
"My sleeping Goddess, you're cute. When you're like this, you're so pure and even more beautiful."
A chuckle escaped me. Just looking at her made me happy. I was content.
I sighed briefly, then looked outside again. I stretched.
"Goddess, technicians will be coming from the capital around today or tomorrow. It's not a large sum yet, but we'll begin the restoration work on your temple. I'll have to earn more a few times like this, but I'm not afraid."
Because I promised. To restore the Goddess's temple.
