While watching the sunset with Shiro-san…… wait, are we really watching the sunset? Well, in any case, we flirted for a reasonable amount of time while watching the sunset, but there was still no sign of the sun setting.
[……Shiro-san, can I ask you something weird?]
[What is it?]
[The sun had stopped setting for a long time, wouldn’t that affect the stars or the other heavenly bodies? No, well, even if it did, you certainly could have those do what you want……]
For example, I vaguely remember hearing somewhere that if the rotation of the Earth were to stop even slightly, it could lead to cataclysms.Of course, Shiro-san is almost omnipotent, so she could do something even if such things happen, but I was kinda curious, so I asked her about it……
[There wouldn’t be such problems. This world may have been created in reference to Earth God’s world, but although various aspects are similar, this world doesn’t exist in the form of a planet. The edge of the world is connected to the opposite edge, so one may feel that the world is like a planet, but the world isn’t spherical.]
[Not a planet? Eh? Then what about that sun or the moon at night?]
[If I had to describe it, I would say that the sun, the moon and the starry sky exist as a system of this world? How should I explain it in a way that’s easy to picture…… It’s difficult to explain, but that is the reason there are no time differences in this world.]
Now that she mentioned it, there really were no time differences in this world. Whether I move to another country or to the Demon Realm, day and night are timed the same.
I suppose it’s like the existence of the sun and the moon as a system in a flat world? Thinking about it again, right from the start, I received an explanation that this world is shaped as the three realms overlapping as three layers. And so, fundamentally speaking, it’s unlike the planet existing within a universe that I was thinking about.
[I- It’s kinda hard to picture, but in any case, I understand that there’s no problem with the sun or the moon. By the way, is it possible for someone to reach the sun or the moon?][One basically can’t get to them. For example, if one keeps flying towards the sun, they will never reach it…… but if it’s someone like Kuro, she can nullify that restriction and reach it.]
[I see……]
Hmmm, it would be proper to just recognize it as “that kind of thing” now. This is a different world, so it’s only natural that the common sense of my world doesn’t apply here.
For the time being, it was fortunate to receive an explanation directly from Shiro-san that there’s no need to worry about cataclysms and the like.
[By the way, Shiro-san? How long is this sunset going to last?]
[Ahh, indeed. It’s about time we watch the night view.]
[Eh? Ah, hey, wai……]
Realizing how things would turn out from Shiro-san’s words, I hurriedly tried to stop Shiro-san, but I was already too late…… and the world abruptly changed into night.
I was too late…… The starry sky above certainly is beautiful, but I wonder how the people looking at the sunset up in the sky suddenly switching are feeling?
[……While we’re at it, shall we watch a meteor shower?]
It’s a beautiful starry sky with a meteor shower descending from above. It has this mysterious beauty to it, and in terms of mood, it might truly be exceptional. However, thinking about how Chronois-san or Laguna-san might be feeling as they gaze upon this sky…… I couldn’t quite express what I’m feeling right now.
It was truly a miraculous sight. Seemingly stating that it had begun to move, the world that should have stopped at sunset suddenly changed to a starry sky, and as the participants of the Founding Festivals were confused, shortly after, a meteor shower that seemed to fill the sky began, and everyone was left at a loss for words at such a wonderful sight and gazed at the sky.
Perhaps because there was a prior explanation that the sunset was a miracle gifted by Shallow Vernal, this was also recognized as Shallow Vernal’s blessing, and as a result, there was little confusion and instead, the majority of the people were delighted.
[……Young Lilia.]
[……Yes.]
[……The stars…… are beautiful, aren’t they?]
[……Indeed…… They really are brutally beautiful. Umm, my stomach hurts, so can I be excused from the party afterwards?]
[Please stop with that, seriously…… I’m already in a situation where I’m definitely going to be bombarded with questions, so don’t leave me alone and help me. Next time young Lilia is in trouble, I will definitely help you!!!]
[……I will hold you on to that.]
Scheduled after this is the Founding Festival party. Regarding this miraculous scene, anticipating that they would likely face a barrage of questions not only from the Kings of other countries like Ryze and Chris, but also from other nobles, Laguna and Lilia watched the beautiful meteor shower with eyes as lifeless as a dead fish.
<Afterword>
Makina : [……Hmm~~ Errr, I was just thinking. Even if I create Mt Fuji, wouldn’t it not be visible at night?]
Airhead God : [Make it visible.]
Makina : [……Huh?]
Airhead God : [Please make sure it looks beautiful even at night.]
Makina : [………………..]
