[Protagonist's POV]
That's when it happened.
Rumble.
Familiar dark clouds began forming in the air.
Slow at first—just specks now—but I knew what they were.
And it seemed she did too.
["Oh, looks like we've got to cut it here today! Listen close! Use that world's saintess! Spend as much time as you can with her—"]
Boom!
Was she that rushed?
Before the clouds even grew to palm-size, a blue thunderbolt struck where her voice came from.
Crackle… crackle…
"…Hello?"
I spoke toward the glitching, TV-static noise, but no reply came.
I cautiously looked up at the clouds in the sky.
'…They're not punishing me too, right?'
I fretted that chatting with her might get me in trouble—
Swish.
"Phew…"
Thankfully, no—they scattered and vanished quickly.
Patting my still-racing heart, I replayed today's chaos.
Yeo Socheon attacked out of nowhere, the heavens pulled some weird stunt on me, and just as I tried to rest, a saintess from another world called to say this one might end.
