Tales of Failure Works 7

I'm not even fully awake right now. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE THEN?! AM I...DEAD?



???: I want a pretty Kimono...

I want to eat a food that I've never eaten before.

I want to go outside and play till I drop.

I want to be free to fly in the sky...

But things will never go as I wish, will they?

Since I am a goddess....

TALES OF FAILURE WORKS.
Chapter 7: The Goddess Miko's wish.

Miko(?): Um...

What would happen if it turned out I wasn't a goddess?

Priestess: W—w---w--what are you talking about?

Y---y----y---you're a goddess Miko~

Miko: However, it does not seem that I have a say in the matters of this world, at all...

003

Miko: Kuramori...

Kuramori: The birthmark on your forehead is proof that you are fortunetelling goddess for the people.

You are an incarnation of the gods in the heavens, here as their messenger.

They promised all of us that we would be able to provide peace.

This was the last edict of the gods.

As such, we need you to bless these happiness goods, Goddess Miko!

Priestesses: Bless us!

(Sign- Happiness.)

(TN- This...doesn't seem at all right. Don't believe them Miko!)

Miko: Ok...

I will!

(TN- sigh)

004

Miko: My fears were unfounded!

I am the Goddess Miko! And I will grant everyone's wishes for peace all around the world!

(TN- Turn around! His face is in troll mode!)

{However...}

{While the goods sold quite well, the amount of happiness they brought were not proportionate to what they were being sold for, and the people's doubts began to surface little by little.}

{Eventually, they began to bear grudges against the Goddess Miko, and soon came to find out what mysterious powers she actually has.}

005

Miko: What's going on...?

What's that commotion?

006

People: Give me back my money you swindler priests!!

None of our wishes came true!

Where's our happiness!!?!

Answer us, false goddess!!

Miko: Ku...

Kuramori!

What is the meaning of this!! Answer me!

Priestess: What about the girl?

Kuramori: We'll have to find another place.

Miko: Kuramori!

Where are you?!
Kuramori: She's just some brat I plucked off the streets. Goddess? Don't make me laugh.

I had no idea she'd be this easy to use though.

007

Miko: Ah...

I'm calling upon you o' gods!!

Pouring rains!

Extinguish this flame!

Pouring rains!

Hah...

Hah...

Someone...

SOMEONE PLEASE SAVE ME!!!

008

(Sfx- Hihi hehe)

Pigthingy: Go...

Gororooo~

009

Miko: A goddess...

{I knew it!!}

{I am a goddess!!}

Miko: Now you'll have to save us! This place is no longer safe!!

Pigthingy: Go..?

Miko: You must hurry!!

Pigthingy: Gorooo!!

010
Old guy: Ah!

011

Dude: A Goddess...

That girl...she really was a goddess!!

(Sfx- Bariii zzzt)

012

Miko: If I couldn't even make my own wishes come true, how could I hope to grant those of other people?

Wishing is a complicated affair indeed...

{But...}

{I am filled with so much joy that the world listened to me, even if it was just a little bit.}

{I am relieved...I can once again from the bottom of my heart wish for peace for the world...}
