The Demon Saint is Missing, so I Ran to Another World

An Even Worse Situation (Part 2)

"O-Oi, Lover boy! At long last, I can finally contact you."

Just when I thought of running after Maddie, I found myself someplace else again. I guess this wasn't a dream; a vision, perhaps? I don't remember falling asleep after the argument with my fiancée. In any case, I saw the former god, standing on the other side of a wide, dark chasm. His beautiful garden was gone, and everything around us was grey, and murky. "Ga-Gaius? I mean, Jules! W-Where are we? What happened to your place?"

"Well, your Waifu #1 did this for sure," he answered. "I heard she put a mind spell on you."

"Ah! That?"

"Yes," he nodded. "It's really a curse, made by some mad witch in the past to watch over her beloved. But honestly, I can't believe that your Waifu #1 knows about it, and cast that on you."

"Shit happens, I guess..." The images of the 'Forbidden' section of the Saint's Library at the Holy Palatial Gardens flashed into my thoughts. It's highly-possibly that there were books like that in there...I don't know, I hadn't had the chance to read them, since Maddie specifically kept it off limits.

Anyway, I have tons of question for Jules to answer.

"I'm sorry Kuro, but we have little time," the former god revealed. "The spell Waifu #1 put on you is pretty potent for a mortal like me, that's why we got this chasm between us. In fact, I won't be able to contact you, had it not for my friend's god-powers, whom I'm borrowing for now. However, my use for it is limited, for the 'Traveling Goddess' fee is too high for my pockets."

"Traveling Goddess? What? There's a fee?"

"Yeah, don't ask; it's purely 'heavenly' matters. Besides, I'm the one who paid, so you just listen up."

"Alright...anyway, what's the emergency?"

"I'll tell you what. Your Waifu #1 is in danger, you know? And if she continues on her destructive path, she'll destroy herself."

"You don't have to repeat to me the obvious," I remembered that time when she and Prince Simon got into an argument. She nearly died because of that incident; the thought of it repeating brought me the shivers, "We just fought!"

"Oooh!" the former god's face contorted as if he was in pain, "Damn son, how bad is it?"

"Bad? No! It's the worst! I'm afraid she might kill herself!"

"Then you have to go after her, and fast! Someone might assist her in doing it!"

"Well, I'm still here, and you called me!" then I paused for a bit before asking, "Wait, did you just say—"

"Ah, right, yes...my bad," Jules chuckled. "The reason I called you here is you should know that, according to a source, the 'Knights' are on the move."

"On the move? They're now going straight for Maddie this time?"

"Yep. So long as your Waifu #1 is in the palatial gardens, they can't do anything to her. However, since she's going to your school every day, they tracked her schedule and create plans to kill her."

"Got any ideas on their weapons?"

"Are you familiar with that gun, Antarctic Warfare Magnum?"

Yes, I was familiar with it; it's my weapon of choice whenever I play that game CounterStruck. It's so deadly in the hands of a proficient player that we gave it the nickname, 'One-shot'. If it's already that lethal in-game, how much more would be the real thing? "Shit. You're not telling me..."
