Chapter 9: No Rest for the Old Guy

In the skies above the ruined remains of the Grand Temple of Malthander, a woman surveyed the carnage with a bitter expression.

She had blue hair, good looks, and almond-shaped eyes that gave her an intellectual aura.

Her skin was covered with fabric so thin as to be sheer, unabashedly revealing her impressive body.

In short, she was beautiful. But somehow, she seemed inhuman.

Because she was.

None of the people running around below had noticed her presence; perhaps they physically couldn’t. Besides, they were too busy dealing with the aftermath of the unprecedented disaster.

The living huddled near long rows of dead bodies. Some wept, others desperately searched for missing family, and others still rejoiced, having found and reunited with their loved ones.

But the woman in the sky wasn’t interested in any of that.

They destroyed the summoning sigil. I suppose that’s the end of our summoning heroes...

The attack that had destroyed the Grand Temple hadn’t been magical in nature, so she hadn’t sensed it.

In other words, it had been a physical attack that had dealt this fierce blow to her and her companions.

The heroes were essential to the four of them and their plans to change this world.

Now, their schemes had been foiled by some unknown player.

I’ve never seen an attack like this before. I felt no mana from it—nor divine power. Was it a weapon from ancient times, perhaps? Those should all have been long-lost by now, though...

“Aquilataaa~! How’s it looking~?”

“Oh. Flaress...” the blue-haired woman said, unsurprised by the sudden appearance. “For starters, it doesn’t seem to have been a god. It was man-made, whatever it was.”

“Humans did this?” said the other, a lively redhead who looked about fourteen. She hovered just behind Aquilata. “Huh. That’ll be a pain to deal with~!”

“Oh, it’s worse than just ‘a pain.’ This attack came from beyond the atmosphere—from space. We cannot reach the source, while they can target this place whenever they desire.”

“Whoa. That sounds, like, the absolute worst! Who did that?”

“I doubt any of this world’s humans are capable of it. They’re all fools, compared to the humans of the past... The only possibilities that come to mind are a surviving hero, or a reincarnator.”

The fall of an ancient, advanced civilization had brought the world’s level of technology crashing down. It was hard to imagine the world’s current civilizations being capable of operating those ancient technologies. That meant it had to have been a hero or a reincarnator.

“THEM?! But, like... I’d get it if it were a hero, but why would a reincarnator go after this place? We totally saved their lives, right?!”

“Who knows? I suppose it is possible that they see us as enemies. And...surely not, but there may even be some god from their world giving them orders.”

“How dare they mess with our world! I say we kill all the reincarnators! Every one of ’em!”

“I doubt it’d be that easy. They’re stronger than we are. I had the gods from the other side show me some information
