“Makoto-san, is this ice magic? An enemy attack?”
The temperature inside the frozen dungeon lowered sharply.
Of course Momo and Hero Abel woke up.
Hero Abel is trembling most likely from the cold.
Momo is most likely fine because she is a vampire, she isn’t trembling.
But she seems strange.
“…Master, who is that woman?” (Momo)
Momo pointed at Dia who was hugging me.
……Wait, eh?
“Momo, you can see the Great Water Spirit Dia?” (Makoto)
“Huh? Since when did you secretly bring a woman? Aah~, she is so beautiful~.” (Momo)
No no, that’s not it at all.
Wait, Momo, you are scary.
“Wait wait, what’s happening here, Dia?” (Makoto)
“Our King, with you giving me a name, I have managed to incarnate in this realm. I will serve you till death do us apart.” (Dia)
“Huh?” (Makoto)
W-What does she mean by incarnate?
Uhm…the Great Water Spirit that you would have to train your magic proficiency to be able to see has now become someone anyone can see?
T-There was such an effect in giving a name…?
“Makoto-san, who is that girl? She seems to have a fearsome amount of mana…” (Abel)
Before I answered Hero Abel, I glared at Dia.
“I heard none of this, Dia.” (Makoto)
“Teehee☆.” (Dia)
This woman, she hid it on purpose!
Kuh, making a face like that of Noah-sama.
“Master~.” (Momo)
“Makoto-san?” (Abel)
“Uhm…Momo, Abel-san, about this girl…” (Makoto)
While getting internally flustered, I explain about the Great Water Spirit Dia to them.
“She is the Great Water Spirit Undine…?” (Abel)
“When you gave her a name, she turned visible…?” (Momo)
“Aah, Our King… So lovely…” (Dia)
Hero Abel and Momo were looking at Dia, but the person herself was in her own world.
Or more like, you are clinging too much.
“Hey, please don’t cling so much onto Master! You just joined and all!” (Momo)
“Huh? I have been by his side all the time, you know? You are the one that just recently became his disciple, right?” (Dia)
“Master, this girl is cocky!” (Momo)
“Our King, this shrimp is cocky, isn’t she?!” (Dia)
Oi oi, they are already fighting.
“Fighting between members isn’t allowed in this party.” (Makoto)
“…Muh.” (Momo)
“…Hmph.” (Dia)
Momo and Dia went ‘pui’ and looked the other way from each other.
I feel like the pains increased.
Also, Dia can speak the common language.
So skilled.
Even so, there’s something that bothers me.
“Are you always visible, Dia?” (Makoto)
“No, I will be hiding my figure in the Spirit Realm most of the time. There’s the chance that the annoying Gods in the Divine Realm will have their eyes on us after all.” (Dia)
“The Gods of the Divine Realm?” (Momo)
“Will have their eyes on you?” (Abel)
Momo and Abel looked in wonder.
Geh! This topic is bad.
I hurriedly cover the mouth of Dia.
“XXXXXX. XXXXXXXXXX! (Don’t talk about how my faith is with the Titan God Noah-sama. Abel is a Hero of the Holy Gods!)” (Makoto)
“XXXXXX! XXXX! (I-I am sorry! Our King!)” (Dia)
I warned her in Spirit Language.
That was close.
If they were to discover I am a former Apostle of an Evil God, I don’t know what Hero Abel would say.
More so when the current Apostle Cain is the killer of Abel’s mentor…
“I will be hiding myself now, okay~?” (Dia)
Dia disappears.
What a whimsical girl.
I am tired…
“I will rest for a bit. Let’s resume our exploration after that.” (Makoto)
“…Understood. Then, I will keep an eye around.” (Momo)
“Thanks, Momo.” (Makoto)
“You really go at your own pace…Makoto-san.” (Abel)
I heard the amazed voice of Hero Abel, but I ignored it and laid down.
My body feels heavy.
The moment I laid down, I immediately was attacked by drowsiness.
I didn’t dream anything.
◇◇
After I woke up, we walked through the heart of Laberintos.
The ground and walls had magic crystals that were releasing lights of many colors.
It is a beautiful dungeon.
It looks like an inorganic dungeon at a glance, but there were springs like an oasis here and there, and places where trees were growing thickly.
I could see birds and small animals there.
But…
“It is quiet, isn’t it, Master?” (Momo)
“Yeah, is this really the Core Floor of Laberintos?” (Abel)
Momo and Hero Abel had questioning expressions.
The reason for that is because we haven’t seen any monsters at all for a while now.
There should be Calamity Designation monsters roaming all around the place in the Core Floor of Laberintos.
It is also called the Nest of Dragons.
It wouldn’t be strange to be attacked by dragons at any moment…
“Fufufu, they must have gotten scared of my mana♪.” (Dia)
Dia was dancing smoothly in the air.
There was mana overflowing from her body.
It is mana that feels as if it were a bomb on the verge of exploding.
She stands out beyond belief.
“Dia, you can’t reduce the output of your mana?” (Makoto)
“Oh my, Our King, this is already the lowest I can go, you know?” (Dia)
“Seriously…?” (Makoto)
In my eyes, it is an amount of mana that feels like just before someone shoots a monarch rank spell. This is apparently the usual for her.
Hero Abel and Momo were wary at first because we were in the Core Floor of Laberintos, but now the tension in their faces is gone.
It is most likely as Dia said.
Even dragons aren’t showing because they are wary of her mana.
This has turned into quite the different situation than calculated.
But this isn’t bad.
Things being peaceful isn’t bad.
Also, I have to confirm our power.
“Hey, Dia, if this is the lowest, what’s the highest when you gather mana? I think saint rank spells could be used without any issues, but could it be that you can gather mana enough to use god rank spells?” (Makoto)
“I am sorry, Our King. I don’t really understand this ‘saint rank’ and ‘god rank’ stuff. I think that’s a measure of people from the mortal realm…” (Dia)
“I see.” (Makoto)
It is true that the grades of the spells that people decided on has nothing to do with the Great Water Spirit.
“But if it is how much mana I can gather, then I can answer. I want to say ‘the mana of all the water of this world’, but you wouldn’t be able to use it as you currently are. If it is in your current state Our King…I can call my Great Water Spirit sisters from around the whole world. They will listen to you as well, Our King.” (Dia)
“Sisters…? There’s not only one Great Water Spirit?” (Makoto)
“There’s others. The Spirits that were once one were torn apart by that wretched Tita—that certain war…” (Dia)
She must be referring to the Titanomachy…
That mythological talk.
Even so, I didn’t know there were more than one Great Water Spirit.
“Got it. When I am in trouble, your sisters will help me out too, right, Dia?” (Makoto)
“That’s right, Our King.” (Dia)
Looks like several Great Water Spirits will lend me their help.
That’s reassuring.
Dia went ‘hmph!’ and pushed her chest out proudly.
That gesture is similar to Noah-sama.
Is Noah-sama doing well?
At that moment, my sleeve was tugged.
It is Momo.
“Master, there’s a gaze observing us.” (Momo)
“Where?” (Makoto)
I hurriedly turned there.
It is true that I think I managed to see something with Farsight for an instant there.
“Ah, it must have hidden after making eye contact with me. It is most likely a dragon.” (Momo)
“I didn’t notice at all…” (Abel)
“Me too, Abel-san.” (Makoto)
The specs of Momo’s body after turning into a vampire are fearsome.
If she trains magic on top of that, I feel like she will pass me in fighting power in an instant.
“Thanks, Momo.” (Makoto)
“Ehehe…” (Momo)
I pat Momo’s head and she clung to me happily.
This girl’s so cute…
It is hard to believe she is the same Great Sage-sama of the future.
Her looks are exactly the same, so there’s no doubt she is that same person though.
“There’s no need to worry, Our King. No matter the monster, it should be okay with me here.” (Dia)
Dia cut into our conversation.
“Lowering our guard like that can cost our lives, right, Master?” (Momo)
Momo grabbed my hand tightly.
“It is true that we must not lower our guards, Our King. Synchronize with me.” (Dia)
Dia also grabbed my hand.
Uhm, having both of my hands occupied is a bit…
“Yes, you two make sure to be wary of the surroundings.” (Makoto)
I let go of their hands and use Detection.
There’s no monsters nearby, as if natural.
We continue our exploration for now with caution.
But in the end there was no monster standing in our way.
It has been half a day since our exploration.
We arrived at the deepest part of the Core Floor.
“This place is…” (Makoto)
“The Deepest Floor of Laberintos…” (Abel)
There’s a giant gate-like entrance in front of us.
The gate is half-open, and there were stairs going even further down.
I thought there would be a barrier on it, but it doesn’t seem to be the case.
Is it telling us to come if we dare to…?
The legendary Holy Dragon is here…
I gulped and went down one step at a time.
It was a long long staircase that felt like a downhill.
The steep slope suddenly became gentle.
And then, the bare rock ground now had plants growing from it.
Despite being inside a dungeon, it was overflowing with bright light.
However, that light is not from the sun. I could tell it was made from magic.
The ground had green spreading thickly, but they were all plants I haven’t seen on the surface.
The Deepest Floor was a dome-like gigantic space.
Also the big bodies I can see here and there are dragons…most likely Ancient Dragons.
Even when we approach them, they don’t come. I feel like…we are being watched.
It is a bit scary.
It doesn’t seem like they will suddenly attack us, but they don’t look friendly.
We advanced slowly.
There was a spring at the center of the Deepest Floor.
This spring that is made up of a massive amount of mana that must have flowed from the Star Veins was sparkling.
There were pure white flowers blooming around that spring as if surrounding it.
That place alone was overflowing with more light than the other places.
I noticed that that place is the center of the Deepest Floor.
At the side of the spring, there’s one giant white dragon lying down.
"Don't you want to Awaken, young lady?" Middle Sector. A place where people believe there…
"Nice, it looks like Sage made sure to get the guns I requested." (Lanpeach) Lanpeach…

I thought this was supposed to be the plot twist chapter. Damn, I was too excited.....Sigh the consequences of Reading the raws ahead..... I scammed Myself 🙃. 😂
“Our King, with you giving me a name, I have managed to incarnate in this realm. I will serve you till death do us apart.” (Dia)
Me: another one eh?!
Or more like, you are clinging too much.
“Hey, please don’t cling so much onto Master! You just joined and all!” (Momo)
“Huh? I have been by his side all the time, you know? You are the one that just recently became her disciple, right?” (Dia)
“Master, this girl is cocky!” (Momo)
“Our King, this shrimp is cocky, isn’t she?!” (Dia)
Oi oi, they are already fighting.
“Fighting between members isn’t allowed in this party.” (Makoto)
“…Muh.” (Momo)
“…Hmph.” (Dia)
Carnage, damn heroine wars almost happened 😂.
“Dia, you can’t reduce the output of your mana?” (Makoto)
“Oh my, Our King, this is already the lowest I can go, you know?” (Dia)
“Seriously…?” (Makoto)
Makoto always attract Overpowered girls😂
And also overpowered boys...
Both heroes of light (Sakurai and Abel) is inside his harem after all ~
Also can't wait for the Dragon-san... And how they ask it to join
Ignore their nonsense... you haven't spoiled a single thing there. Not even a little. That's like saying
>In the future, Makoto will have a conversation.
Considering he has them routinely, that spoils nothing.
A non-descriptive "could be literally anything" plot twist tells us nothing at all.
Plot twists are a pretty regular event. Knowing that yet another plot twist exist in the future doesn't actually change the reader's expectation of the story at all. Nor does it introduce new information. Nothing.
There is no spoiler in your comment, and no reason you shouldn't have posted it. They're simply being unreasonable.
It's not nonsense, and you don't get to decide what is and isn't a spoiler, least of all for a series that's been rife with spoilers. If you know a horror movie has a lot of jumpscares, that doesn't mean exclaiming that a jumpscare is coming isn't bad etiquette.
And fundamentally, the issue is mentality. I gave a suggestion and didn't give Nathaniel a hard time for it. Maybe if people who read the raws were more careful or strict with what they said, comments in this series wouldn't be filled with so many fucking spoilers.
"Oh, it's fine. It's not a spoiler.", said every non-troll spoiler ever. If you made the decision to read the raws, then it's up to you to be responsible and considerate of what you say. Sometimes mistakes slip through, but at least try.
Maybe don't mention there's gonna be a plot twist coming soon? In fact, don't say anything in reference to possible future events?
There's going to be a plot twist. In fact, there will be multiple plot twists.
Sure, sure, snark away. As long as people watch what they say, I don't care.
I'm sure no one wants to actually spoil shit, they're just excited. The other option is not looking at comments. It's not a good habit, it doesn't add anything to the experience at the end of the day. Me doing this is also just a waste of time
Of course. There are only two types of spoilers, really. First are when the person who does it doesn't think it's a spoiler. Second are if people do what you were doing earlier and just trying to get a rise out of people for personal fun-trolling.
Discussing in the comment section adds plenty to my experience. Maybe not for you, but clearly you don't care about spoilers as much and our way of enjoying this is different. Not to mention Reigokai himself has said plenty of times in the past that he draws motivation from comments, and now it's become a thing where he has to curate for spoilers and consequentially get spoiled by pricks who don't care.
Besides all that, why should I be the one to mind reading in the comment section of an ongoing novel? I don't go into any forums or anything discussing spoilers because that'd be dumb. The assumption should be that the comments on this site are spoiler-free up to the chapter they're under.
He doesn't mention anything that can be narrowed down, so that should be fine. Plot twists are everywhere here I'm actually tempted to meme it with that Toy Story meme.
It's not the presence of a plot twist that's the issue. We're in the past. Things are going to be revealed and recontextualized frequently. Meme if you want. That doesn't make a spoiler not a spoiler.
The problem is the timing. We never know when it's coming, and the comment narrowed down the time frame.
I dunno, I mean a lot of things so far has been a Plot Twist to the point that just claiming a plot twist is coming doesn't feel problematic. IMO it's not really a meaningful thing mentioning a Plot Twist is coming, as long as there's no further qualifier. Say maybe someone says that a plot twist is incoming about the identity of Iblis after a lot of buildup about their possible identity, that'd be problematically specific. But if it's just plot-twist..., well plot-twist about what? About how the Holy Dragon is actually Anna? About how Anna is actually dead and we just haven't found out yet? Something else? Maybe Makoto going to get eaten here so we can follow Abel going all Count of Monte Cristo on the dragons before forcing the Holy Dragon to help, only to find out Makoto has actually taken over Iblis' position as the GDL (because Iblis is actually a girl and is now all over Makoto), causing Abel to break down and then bad end?
IMO it's been generic enough to not ding the spoiler alarm, but then again feel free to feel otherwise. If it's not deleted until now then it's probably safe enough.
I don't care what the actual plot twist is. That's not the point.
The point is that if you've read the raws ahead of time, don't talk about the things you've read somewhere unspoiled readers would be reading.. The treatment should be that if the translation hasn't gotten to it, then the events should be treated like they don't exist.
It's really not that complicated. Wordpress doesn't give people the option of hiding spoiler text, and people who are only waiting for Reigokai's translation will read and interact more than anywhere else. This is the one place where people are most likely to be spoiled.
Weakest Mage has been dealing with spoiler problems for a good long while already. This is not the place to be toeing a line.
That doesn't actually tell you anything though... so what exactly is the problem? The periodic plot twist is an expected thing from the very start. We've gotten more than I could hope to count. So saying that there will be one... means next to nothing and certainly spoils nothing. It might a little if they had said there was a twist relative to a specific person/subject, that might be slightly different (but still pretty harmless).
But they didn't narrow even down to anything in particular, even to a range of things, nor exclude anything as a possibility. Literally anything could contain a routine plot twist. You've in fact learned nothing new from that. Thus no harm, no foul. Not containing even a hint of spoiler, you have no reasonable cause to be upset with the contents of their comment, let alone telling them what to do about it.
Plot twists exist. Yes. And they come at often unexpected times. Sometimes they're predicted in speculation (or spoilers disguised as speculation), and sometimes not. That's not the point.
This tells us that there's a twist incoming, and soon. Maybe it's next chapter. Maybe it's the one after. Point is, it's close to happening, and that's a spoiler.
Hmmmm, alright bro👍, but I don't remember putting a reference of future events thou, after I read the raws.. The plot twist thing was me expecting that this will be it (suppose to be. that was i thought but im wrong ) chapter , and so that i can have a better and accurate information on the translation rather in raws, Reading ahead or not. The future events is quite (some are) predictable.🤔
Yeah, that's fine. I was just giving some advice.
Basically, what you said meant "a plot twist should be happening around now.", which is more information than I wanted to hear.
Every harem member or member can push him down physically lol.
I mean, I'm fairly sure even human Momo can. He's that weak.
*Every harem member or harem candidates can push him down physically lol.
The most powerful group of girls that he attracts is made up of Goddesses by the way (Ira, Noah, Eir).
I could see Dia and Momo keep bantering while waiting for Makoto for 1000 years. Didn't Makoto "lose" control when fighting that Geralt guy , perhaps it is Dia who enraged she possessed Makoto.
Thank you as always for the hard work!
“…Master, who is that woman?” (Momo)
Momo pointed at Dia who was hugging me.
……Wait, eh?
"Huh? Since when did you secretly bring a woman? Aah~, she is so beautiful~.” (Momo)
Pfft i had the feeling like momo might go into the yandere route
"Our King, with you giving me a name, I have managed to incarnate in this realm. I will serve you till death do us apart.” (Dia)
“Huh?” (Makoto)
So she now can materialize herself whenever he called for her? Now makoto has Dia as his stand. That "I will serve yoh till death do us apart" really cute. Harem member +1
"I heard none of this, Dia.” (Makoto)
“Teehee☆.” (Dia)
This woman, she hid it on purpose!
Kuh, making a face like that of Noah-sama
And she really does like noah.
"If it is in your current state Our King…I can call my Great Water Spirit sisters from around the whole world. They will listen to you as well, Our King.” (Dia)
Eh.. She has sisters?
So it's like that they call the other great water spirit undine as sister's and as Dia mention that they (separated/ teared) of from one single entity during the war of God Titanomacyh ( probably after titan god's lost to holy god's)
I think we saw them during the fight between the Water Spirit King Makoto and the Demi God Alexander (or a mongrel like a certain King of Heroes would say).
Now now, we now know he's a preschooler (actually closer to a newborn really) so we can afford to be nicer to him. And if Makoto were to end up with any of the Holy Goddesses, Alex would be his brother-in-law so yeah.
Also, regarding how Dia seem weaker than god, that's a given. We've been told that the power level goes something like Demigod < Spirit King < Gods after all. Naturally a Great Spirit can't be stronger than the gods if the gods are stronger than a Spirit King.
About Dia and the great water spirit in general, if we talk about how she was an unique perfect self, most likely she would end up having a fair amount of power, but like it was said, in the titanomachia eas split up in many others, if they can become one through Makoto inf the Spirit King form, maybe that explains why is the "our king".
What do you think, fellas?
The whole conversation with Dia just now screams that the first undine Makoto accidentally used must have already been willing to help him due to this very reason instead of the bullshit Noah-sama made up about charm magic leading me to believe that Noah-sama knows more than she lets on
Well of course, duh
That's Noah-sama we are talking about. Remember Makoto's casual dissing her that she is always plotting something anyway?(when she sealed his arm with divinity)
Now you mentioned it. Yeah i do remember them. But i didnt thought that they are her sisters, or maybe all water spirit in the world could be considered as Dia relative? Given that they were actually one entities that got wrecked because of The God War
The Great Water Spirit Undine seems kinda weak to me if compared to Gods. I don't think that she would be able to defeat a Goddess. Maybe Makoto would somehow manage to fuse them back together and use some God-rank magic ?
While it is tempting to let him use God-tier magic I don't think it is good to somehow fuse them. Name all sisters, summon a harem of beauties on snap of fingers, use chorus of indices to dramatically cast Great Flood (+DeepSea10k). Girls will also help to protect chosen people in range.
Thanks
This chapter is making me very suspicious of Dia. Wait wait, but he author loves misdirection. Have to hold down the instant judgement...
Thanks for the chapter!
I don't have much to say in this chapter other than
Oh, Undine, or should i say Dia, is now a rival of Momo eh? Everywhere Makoto goes, there's always new pair of love rival. What a womanizer indeed!
Let's see...
-Lucy and Aya
-Sofia and Janet (they are now on friendly terms)
-Momo and Dia
Makoto is really a sinful man. The pair keep each other in check to avoid that the other steal the march.
@Trygon could also be Noah since they are the 2 most beautiful beings he's ever seen.
Fu-chan vs Noah? Battle of the mortal beauty & the immortal?
Well, Makoto thought that Furiae would look normal compared to Noah and Eir. (chapter 147). However, I prefer Furiae's illustration over Noah's illustration.
And considering how Noel has been considered Anna's reincarnation..., I imagine it wouldn't be so hard for Furiae to project her dislike for Noel towards Anna.
Also don't forget how Lucy and Aya will likely keep everyone else in check. His first night is going to be an orgy right off the bat wouldn't it?
But what about Furiae? Who's her pair gonna be, not hero Abel right?
@Trygorn
What about Anna ? If Makoto manages to seduce the Holy Maiden Anna, I think that there would be a pair composed of Furiae and Anna. (Moon Oracle and Sun Oracle. They would fit as a pair)
It scares me how possible/likely this scenario is
Thanks for the new chapter and great work, Reigokai.
Thanks! Nepu!
