Satou here. Throughout history and across cultures, there have been many gods, but the god who created the world—the creator god—seems to have finished their role once the world was made, entrusting the myths thereafter to their children or subordinate gods.
It’s almost enviable, like a program that requires no debugging after completion.
◇
"—So it’s defeated."
Arisa murmured softly.
"Can you tell?"
"Yeah, somehow. It felt like Master stopped being human."
Apparently, through the connection with my followers, she realized that I had attained divine status.
"Master’s level has returned to normal too, huh."
"Now that you mention it—"
Before I knew it, the skill and title system had been restored.
But Kagura hasn't appeared yet.
I remember she said, "I'll revive on my own. The activation of Ichiro's final unique skill is the signal," but she never said "immediately," so I guess we'll have to wait patiently.
Maybe she’s timing her appearance carefully.
"Gogogogogo~?"
Shortly after Tama's words, the collapse of the Demon World accelerated.
I understand now. The Demon World, having lost its master, is about to completely vanish.
I collected God Parion’s Divine Sword, the Divine Reaping scythe, and my two shattered Rainbow Swords into storage, then used unit placement to teleport away to the human world aboard a small Void Ship.
◇
In the quiet sky of the human world, the small Void Ship floats.
"They’re back."
Everyone sighed in relief at Lulu's clear voice looking up at the blue sky.
I reported to my beloved Ms. Aze, who was waiting at the Isolated Island Palace, that the demon god problem was resolved. I almost proposed out of impulse, but refrained—for I want to do it face to face.
From the corner of my eye, Tama’s ears twitched.
"Nyu~"
"Satou."
Following Tama and Mia’s gaze, I saw Sera glowing with a blue radiance.
"…"
She looked at me with deep sorrow.
"You’re Tenion-sama, right?"
"…The pillar."
Tenion God spoke through Sera’s form.
"A world that has lost its supporting pillars will perish."
She said something ominous.
"W-World is going to perish?"
Lady Karina screamed in shock at Tenion God's words.
"This is bad~"
"I don’t really understand, but it must be really bad!"
"Liza, do you understand?"
"It means the world will disappear."
"Jesus~"
"This is an emergency!"
Tama and Pochi bustled about anxiously.
The others also seemed somewhat shocked by Tenion God’s statement.
"It’ll be okay."
I had to clear up this misunderstanding.
"What do you mean 'okay'?! The gods alone, just you and me, can’t uphold the world. Even if we could, a hundred years would be the limit. At least if the Dragon God lent their power, it’d be different—but that one isn’t interested in maintaining the world."
Yeah, I get it.
That’s just Kagura.
But no worries.
“So if the seven gods are all gathered, that would be enough, right?”
"That’s impossible—"
"I can do it."
I called Demon Lord Shizuka with unit placement.
"Sorry to call suddenly. Can you help me out a bit?"
"Eh? Sure, no problem."
With Shizuka’s cooperation, I took out the "Fragments of the Gods" from my comrades—Liza, Nana, Mia, and Ms. Zena.
Blue, scarlet, indigo, and orange lights floated around my body.
Unlike the "Fragments of Gods" from the demon gods, these were very calm.
"Can Hikaru join too?"
"Yeah, of course."
Hikaru’s unique skill "Friendship (Everyone Gets Along)" granted by God Parion during hero summoning vanished and separated as a blue light.
"You’re trying to recreate gods from fragments?"
"Yes, that’s the plan."
"How many thousands of years do you think that’ll take?! You and I might wait, but the world can’t. No matter how much effort, a hundred years is the limit."
It’s surprising Tenion God is so hysterical.
"It won’t take that long—≪Storage≫"
I stored the fragments into storage.
Once, live beings couldn’t be stored, but now that admin rights are unlocked, it’s no problem.
"Next—unit creation… ‘Heralon.’"
Before me appeared a boy glowing orange.
A bit young-looking, but since only fragments were the material, this was the limit.
