Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure - Chapter 2071: A sudden increase in activity

Chapter 2071: A sudden increase in activity
The moment that they saw me, all of them had come forward to surround me as if they wanted to be the first ones to report.
I could see from the looks on their faces that all of them were anxious to tell me what they had to tell me.
However, I could also tell that what they had to say wasn’t good news.
If there was any bad news to tell, there was no doubt that it would be related to the forces of Destruction.
It was just that it had been a while since the forces of Destruction had done anything.
“There’s a sudden increase in activity from the corruption energy.”
That was the gist of the reports that they had for me.
If it was in just a single place, then we might be able to find a reason for this and how to deal with it. However, these reports came from all over the continent and from many different countries.
For the forces of Destruction to make a move like this, it really was hard to tell what they were planning.
After all, it was just an overall increase in activity from the forces of Destruction.
During this lull, it wasn’t as if all signs of the forces of Destruction had disappeared.
From time to time, we would still find traces of corruption energy that appeared all of a sudden. It was just that none of these spots that had corruption energy appearing posed any threat to us.
We had ways of dealing with the corruption energy after all, so it was easy to purify the corruption energy that we found.
The way that the corruption energy acted, it was almost as if it was passive corruption energy that had appeared because it was naturally occurring.
It wasn’t the kind that could actually attack anything that approached it, which actually made it even easier to deal with.
But in the reports that they had for me, they talked about how the corruption energy had started attacking people and how there were even corruption energy monsters that formed.
I really didn’t know what to make of this, but there was one thing that was certain.
“The forces of Destruction are getting stronger.” I muttered to myself after hearing these reports.
The forces of Destruction had never really disappeared from the continent, they had just hidden themselves away to gather their power. But it was a fact that they were a natural part of this world and they were seeping into different places.
So for the naturally occurring corruption energy to become stronger, it must mean that something had happened with the forces of Destruction.
Once they finished their reports, that was when they got to the main question.
“Are the weapons ready?”
That was the thing that these countries that sent these reports cared about.
The weapons that we created with my divine energy would allow more people to fight against the forces of Destruction. For these countries that were now facing increased corruption energy activity, it was only normal that they would want these weapons.
Only I had been here the entire time, so it wasn’t as if I knew what happened back home with the development.
“We’ll bring this up in the next meeting. I have to go back and see how the weapon development is going.”
All of the messengers didn’t seem happy to hear this response, but there wasn’t anything that they could say.
After all, they were technically at my mercy when it came to these weapons since there was no one else that would be able to make them.
So the only thing that they could say was, “We hope that they’ll be ready as soon as possible.”
I didn’t mind this much since I knew why they were doing this and understood what it meant for them.
It was just that I didn’t have much time to think about this.
I didn’t actually head back to the Kite Kingdom after leaving this place.
The first place that I headed to was the Holy Empire since I had already come to the decision that I would speak to Solista first.
There were things that she owed me after all.
The popes were surprised to see me appear since they thought that I would head back to the Kite Kingdom in response to the increase in corruption energy activity, but it wasn’t as if they stopped me.
When I arrived, they welcomed me warmly and brought me to the main chapel.
Though when I arrived in the Holy Empire, I could feel that there was something different about this place.
It was the connection that I had to the statue that they built.
This connection had changed in a way…
It felt like if I wanted, I could use that statue to form a domain at any moment.
Thinking of this, I couldn’t help thinking of the holy grounds that the gods made in the Holy Empire. It really seemed similar to how I would use my domain and how I could make it around the statue.
But this was something that should only be possible for gods…
It seemed like there was more to this trial than met the eye and I had already predicted part of this.
So it was even more important for me to meet with Solista.
I really needed more information from her about these changes.
When I entered the main chapel, it didn’t take long for me to arrive in the god’s realm.
Solista was waiting there alone for me, but I couldn’t help feeling a bit surprised by how I saw her.
Before this, there was still that layer of light that covered her and prevented me from seeing her true form. Even after gaining my own divine energy, that layer of light had still done the same thing.
It was just that now…
That layer of light seemed to be growing weaker and I was able to see more of Solista.
