"Are you a deity?"
Deity, huh?
But Maria quickly rejected the idea, "No, that's not possible. I have met all the deities living in the current era, and the possibility of a new deity being born is impossible."
Why impossible?
"How can you read this?" She inquired, narrowing her eyes in my direction.
I gulped but said confidently.
"The reason, well… Let's just say someone taught me. "
"Ah," Ruby seemed to understand who I was referring to.
As for Maria…
"Who is that person? You read it so fluently; she must be a natural genius to teach someone like you."
"Huh?"
What does she mean?! Does she just indirectly call me an idiot?!
—'I like this lady.' Sera shared her interest.
Well, I would rather not expose Sera to her yet. So, I made up a few stories.
"It was an old lady who taught me this language…"
—'Oi!'
"Despite her age, she was very knowledgeable. When I was a kid, she wandered into my house and offered to teach me this language, which I accepted."
