Chapter 16 SS 3 – Loli Goddess and the Guardian of Little Girls, Hero’s POV
This is an epic tale of the love story between an
all-rounder@hero and a God.
I. am. NOT. a. lolicon. Ever. Never. Forever.
At least that’s what I thought.
It all started on one fateful day.
I just graduate from the university and am looking for a
job. While job-hunting, I stumble upon a strange-looking advertisement stating that
they are looking to hire an all-rounder to fight criminal organizations around
the world. Sounds like police. It is a walk-in interview. I took a picture with
it, and went to the interview venue. There was nobody in the building, and when
I asked around, nobody knows what am I referring to. I show them the picture,
but none of them knew of it. I got a drink from a vending machine nearby, sit
on a bench, and have a break. I noticed a faint light due to the dark
surroundings. I went forward to look at it. The light is a 3D oval shape, and I
curiously raised my hand to touch it with a finger. Everything around me looks
to be spinning in very quick motion and my head became dizzy from the sudden
change till I faint.
I’m now a guy that got summoned from another world. In front
of me was a little girl. I’m now in a sci-fi lab. I was lying on my back and
she operated many display interfaces in quick succession with her eyes and hand
swipes. After pressing a button and all the interface cease, the board I’m
lying on move to a MRI-looking cylinder shaped machine. There, all my
particulars, my heartbeat, brain scans, genetic structure, were scanned and the
board moves my body out of it again. I was so impressed.
But what impressed me more was the operator of all this
machineries. She is a little girl of about 110 cm height. She has this angelic
look on her face when she is serious and gave a warm smile to me when she
noticed I’m looking at her. Her figure curves at all the right angles and her
chest were ample and just right in size, the Golden Ratio. She’s totally my
type of love. I got struck by her looks. I don’t know what is first love until
I experience this. I can’t scorn the riajuus anymore. But please, [I. am. NOT. a.
lolicon], shouted my conscience. I repeat that word to keep me from behaving
like a scum and keep my facial expression in check, hope my poker face works.
Her next word surprised me.
“I summoned you here from your another world, but don’t go
off thinking of something rude about me. Even like this, I’m a God you know”
said loli Goddess.
Ah, so I’m in another world now. I used to read isekai
novels, manga, and anime. But now I experience it firsthand. Maybe there is
some truth in those stories huh? Nonono, this may be some scam or candid
camera. Some secret government organization may be trying to kidnap me, or even
worse aliens from another world. Wait, she can read my mind? (Hero thinks in
his mind)
“No, I’m not a scammer. Though the last part may be
partially correct, we are not like those body snatchers or visitors that
destroys other civilization. We are just being from another world, hoping to
co-exist well with each other. I summoned you here as someone whose talent is
needed. And yes, I can understand your thoughts” said loli Goddess.
Loli Goddess said that our minds are linked through
<Familiar Contract> then proceed to send input signal into my mind, and
images that scroll in fast succession began to from into moving picture that
looks like old video player. First there is a grand civilization of every
mankind’s dream, like a Garden of Gods, literally. Then there is strive and
peace in between intervals. Bad beings chased out of the garden, and some just
want to travel to outside worlds. Then some unknown disaster struck the planet,
destroying all the beautiful life over there. All forms of grand structure
across multiple planes of existence collapse and they lose all hope of living,
as the power source of the Gods we shut down one by one.
A team of Gods held a conference and from there, decide that
God Chief has been destroyed by the unknown entity, and the remaining Gods will
seek out other worlds. Seven of them, including the loli Goddess, travelled
together to this planet after a long journey to seek refuge. They carried their
luggage in a trunk made of wood they planted themselves, taking with them all
kinds of artifacts and tools to live in their new world. The new homeworld was
very primitive, with very few living beings. The seven Gods found that their
old sleepyhead friend that have long left the God’s homeworld, is in this new
planet, dozing off as usual. After obtaining permission to stay and do whatever
they like except disturbing his sleep and to provide food and wine as tribute, the
Gods began settling in on the new planet. The first race to come across the
Gods was the elves. The Gods blessed them with long life and leave them to
handle the luggage trunks. The trunks began taking root again and begin to
sprout as the World Trees, carefully guarded by the elves. The World Trees act
as converter of sort, they produce the magic essence by absorbing space’s Void
sky and particles. Sprouts from the World Trees can also do the same.
The video then shows another God who is a clumsy megalomaniac
that accidentally stumbles on this planet while behaving like a drunkard, and
started planning to usurp the planet for himself since he lost his luggage and
has nothing much with him. This God created ilk from his flesh and made his kin
multiply at the expense of other race. The 7 Pillar Gods begin a conference and
decide to outsource for manpower from outside world, and created a world portal
@ summoning circle for that. Some battle-lust Gods would prefer to duke it out
with the crazy god, but the leader among the 7 Pillar Gods prefer to take a
more peaceful approach, as the God’s kin and subordinates will suffer the most
during such conflict.
The video was zoomed forward at a very fast pace and he can
see that an otherworlder has obtained Godhood through his hard work by serving
Gods. Other humans begin to emulate him and work to obtain Godhood. They became
conceited after becoming high leveled and stopped believing in the Gods
altogether. The megalomaniac God, now identified as Demon God, uses this
opportunity to invade the people and spread fear and greed to them, and made
them worship the Demon God. The video ended and I woke up from my slumber with
a refreshed mind (aided by loli Goddess spell).
“Now, do you understand my standpoint? I need manpower to
stop the Demon God from destroying this new world and its inhabitant. You will
of course be repatriated appropriately after you have accomplished your task.
There is no time to lose. Now, come with me” demanded the loli Goddess.
Wait, what? I just got summoned to another world, and I am
going to be a labourer there until I get the job done? This is abuse of
workforce. What about my family? Where do I stay now? What do I do for food?
(said the hero in his mind)
“Don’t worry. As your Master, I won’t let you hungry. You
can stay here in a shed I have prepared. I have read that human from another
world stay in small run-down squatters, so this should be plenty. You can eat
the bowl of worm and insects my staff has procured over at the table. Those are
delicacies, hope to welcome you to our group with this as our greetings”
boasted the loli Goddess.
This is too much to process, but I confidently can say this
is a scam, definitely. Look up and around for hidden cameras. Nothing? I will
try to calmly get up, analyze, and walk out of this place. I read from novel
and manga too often that running in panic will only end up getting shot in the
feet. Ok, now, to look for a door. (said the hero in his mind)
(Third person view of the hero)
He saw the bowl on the dining table. It looks dangerous,
similar to Kodoku jar. (where poisonous insect pitted each other until only the
strongest survive).
He calms down his mind and slowly walks around, and asks
where is the washroom. The loli Goddess snaps her finger and a portal to the
washroom appear in front of him. He went it, but there is not door to shut. The
hero retorts in his heart, hoping the Goddess didn’t know about it. The
washroom is in a mess, and quite dirty. Loli Goddess snaps her finger and
chantlessly use <Bubble Wash>. The hero squirmed while doing small
business, being tossed around in the washroom. The washroom got fluffy and full
of bubbles and a torrent of water wash off the bubbles. Loli Goddess saw that
the washroom is still not clean, so she cast <Clean Wash> chantlessly and
again, the hero got tossed and turned, and hot air was blown to dry the place
off after many torrents of water.
The hero got up, ran to the loli Goddess and grabbed her arms
while shouting to the top of his lungs “WHERE IS COMMON SENSE CHAN!!!!!?????”
only to be cut off with <Silence> spell cast by the loli Goddess and
tossed onto the floor with a push. The loli Goddess then put her face
close to the hero, puckered her glossy lips and close her eyes decorated with
long shining eyelashes. The hero have a battle in his heart of what is going
on, whether to accept the kiss of the girl he love at first sight, or [I. am.
NOT. a.LOLICON], or “What the hell is she trying? Is this a trick”, is this a
new programme in “Perfect Match”?, will she turn me into zombie, etc, etc. The
hero remained still until the loli Goddess announced that the contract has been
sealed.
The hero woke up from his stunned state with a “Huh? What
has been sealed?”
Loli Goddess explained that she has performed the sealing of
contract between a master and a familiar(servant), as exchange of body fluid is
necessary to perform the contract. Five fragments entered his body and the
hero’s body shined blue for a moment then returned to normal. He wants to
retort “What about sweat?”, but kept silent as that is a weird fetish. Other
options are rather close to sexual harassment just by naming it. Then it dawned
into the hero that his first kiss with a girl, he has no memory of it as it was
done when his thoughts were elsewhere. A painful regret, a facepalm, and he
fell to the floor in agony, saying “This is not even a dream huh?”.
The ‘cute’ episodes continue on for many years, as the hero
lost track of the sense of time. There are so many incidents that writing a
full-blown novel can’t even cover all of them. But slow, very slowly, the hero
managed to change the view of the loli Goddess, while chanting [I. am. NOT. a.
LOLICON] every time to keep himself from pushing down loli Goddess.
During the beginning of the hero’s enslavement, he was
treated harshly, malnourished, not paid, bad living environment, and shamed.
The Hero realized the reality he is in now. He is really a transported person
from another world. He can’t return to his original world until his contract
expires. The loli Goddess is his Master. He’s a slave hero of the ‘holy’
Goddess Parion. Hero is just a category people give to someone that is able to
everything or an all-rounder. He has to do all the laundry, cooking, cleaning,
gardening, and basically all the housework of the ‘holy’ Goddess. Her bad habit
of scattering stuff, binge eating, mess-creating, party with other Gods, lazing
around, etc, gets on the hero’s nerve and he started scolding her and
correcting her one by one, only to get punished.
The hero got sent to the front lines and face off with Demon
God adherents straight from the get go without any basic knowledge on
swordsmanship, magic, or tactics. He was alone, only equipped with his holy
sword, Taming Sari in his first campaign. The shape of the sword is odd and is
quite unwieldy, but it can talk and split into 14 similar-looking pieces and
can auto-acquire and attack the enemies. This allows the hero to fight with
level 30 demons and level 45 mid-level demons present at the hideout he’s
fighting. The boss of the Demon God adherent, a level 65 Demon, was just too
powerful and has troublesome Unique spells. The holy sword Taming Sari teach
the hero to sneak clothes, armour and weapons from the dead human of Demon God
adherent and wear them, earning the title of <Thief>, <Pillager>,
and sub-job of thief with lock-picking and trap-setting skills. The hero
fainted for half a day due to the effects of sudden level raise, his level rose
from 1 to level 18 in just a few hours. The hero managed to beat the Demon
Lord’s followers after trapping and killing them, steal from their safes, and
use their special equipment and weapons against them. The Demon Lord was
enraged and a fierce fight ensued. The Demon Lord was defeated after both using
their sure-kill Unique skills, but the hero’s holy sword has a second skill,
creating a Holy Shell to protect against any attacks and managed to protect
against most of the damage.
The opinion of loli Goddess changed ever so slightly from
the success of the hero’s first campaign, and only award him with one small
piece of bread for dinner. The hero has to sneak out and cook for himself every
night with stolen meat or foraged leaves for lack of food, but loli Goddess
will snatch it away every time (because they are from God’s Garden subspace).
The harsh condition and sense of reason tempered the hero and made him so
fearsome in the frontlines. Over time,
the hero learned many skills all over the place. He learned blacksmith and
created better spare weapons and armour, sewing to make his clothes and bed,
thread spinning to make thread, learn magic to cast spells, enchanting to
enchant his armours and weapons, carpenting for making a small house and his
bed, and many more sub-jobs, truly an all-rounder. He owed the blade a lot for
all the knowledge and skills that he learned to the talking holy sword. Even
the loli Goddess was impressed and sneaked some of his items away due for her
own amusement.
The hero was send to
the frontlines to kill stronger and larger group of enemies in most of his new
assignments. He is level 75 after being transported for a year and his stats
and spec is geared towards a warrior, with sturdy physical defence, great
swordsmanship, but he also never neglects his study in magic. His magic
chanting is very quick and short now, and was able to some magic chantlessly,
due to access to his personal interface and <Appraisal> skill. His
sub-jobs has now been a very long list, with <Priest> and <Holy
Knight> as his new sub-job. His level may be lower than most Demon Lords but
his skill mastery and sub-jobs allowed him to defeat them even though he’s at
lower level. Due to his tenacious way of life, he was always assigned to work
solo. His relationship with his master and his sword grew closer, but since
being thrown into so many dangerous missions and his self-dependent way of
life, has lose all interest in romance. Loli Goddess, however, grows closer to
the hero, but always show her cold attitude to the hero.
(Daily life in God’s Garden subspace)
“Wake up, Hero. There is an urgent request from a miko in a
booch kingdom in the east. I will send you there now”. (loli Goddess)
“Yes, Master-sama. Wait Master, I going get prepared” said
the Hero as he got out of his bed and go to the storage room in his hut.
“Only one minute” (loli Goddess)
The hero grabs his tools, armour parts, and small food
ration in quick succession.
“You should keep them in your Infinite Stowing (Inventory)
all the time degozaru” retorted holy sword Taming Sari.
“Curse my carelessness. I thought I told Master that human
need sleep and can get mentally fatigued even when using <Heal> or
stamina potion. She can practically peek into my mind anytime to understand
that” (Hero)
Loli Goddess promised not to always peek into her familiar’s
thoughts all the time some time ago.
A teleport circle appears from below his feet and the hero
fell into it due to gravity because he wasted his time.
The Hero is dropped into the air from the teleport exit.
“<Levitation>, <Sky Walk>. I’m not even
surprised anymore” (Hero)
“I wish I can master <Sky Drive> skill to conserve
mana” (Hero)
I descended from the sky by steps created from invisible
surface. In front of me, a large cathedral, the size of a football stadium back
in my world and roughly twice its height. The structure seem to have seen
better days, there were cracks and holes at some places, the door seems to be
stained by blood and were roughly wiped off, and the beautiful stained glass
and murals were broken.
(Third person view)
A cloaked figure opened the heavy door and dashed upwards
while holding a shield and a small blade. A trap activated by the door released
the arrow from the front and two axes from left and right, but they all missed
their target. The cloaked figure covered his front with the shield and ready
the blade at the back. Next moment, 15 <Dark Arrow> came attacking the
cloaked figure. The shield was empowered and broke while successfully defend
the attack, but a large arm strike from the back, breaking the small blade and
decapitated the cloaked figure. The head fell off on the ground is a coconut
with smiley painted as a face, connected to the body with a wooden pole. The
body of the cloaked figure explodes into a sea of flame and fragments with
pebbles.
The ceiling broke down and a figure can be seen heads down
first appear to be shooting from two one-handed staffs and blow off all the 15
demons waiting in ambush. The demon lurking in the shadow is not around
anymore, but another 10 demons came out and attack with both demon magic and dangerous
looking weapon. The Hero spun around and avoided all the attacks while continuously
shooting from his gun-like staff until they collapse. The Hero then land on his
feet after performing a summersault. The entire battle happens in a blink of an
eye. The messy hall is further messed up, stirring dust of cloud when the
collapsed ceiling fell on the floor. Almost all the things lay broken, bodies
strewn, except for the confession box.
(Hero’s view)
“Puppeteer sub-job sure is handy. With this, I can at least
avoid ambushes and lay my own ambush. Time to collect the loots.” (Hero)
I used <Detection> and <Evil Detection> spells,
and used <Magic Hand> to pick up usable items and dispose of dangerous
ones. I sensed someone alive in a confession box that is still standing, and I
opened the door. There are a lot of bodies stacked together in the box, with
some of them having their bodies carved with markings. They were probably
sacrificed for some dark ritual by the demons. Oh, I found the person. She’s
wearing the dress of a priestess. When I asked her if there is anyone else
alive, she just cried with her already red eyes. I quickly brought her out of
there, and ask ‘holy’ Goddess to open a portal to rescue her. I got no
response, so I brought her out of the building, maybe there is no reception,
still thinking like I’m in my homeworld, and ask for ‘holy’ Goddess again, with
no avail.
“I serve under the Holy Goddess Parion as a hero, and I’m
here to rescue whoever I can” (Hero)
I take out a pouch and a cup together with a cloak for cover
from Infinite Stowing (Inventory); a really convenient skill taught by leveled
up and upgraded Taming Sari, and make a drink for the priestess to calm her
down. I asked her story, and she starts explaining that she’s a lone survivor;
all the people she knew were killed. She’s the cathedral’s assistant miko, but she
looks like a 10-year old girl, and she has the appearance of what would be a
typical ‘ELF’ in my homeworld, so maybe she has a long life. From my status and
character appraisal on this girl, her name is Maia, she’s of a race called Booch,
and she is 18 years old.
She has been working with the cathedral as long as she can
remember. But things got weird in the past 3 weeks. The church’s members went
missing one by one, and a request is sent to the castle in the capital, but
there is no news. So this is the capital, and this must be the main church. She
said the messenger never returned, and more people went missing. The cathedral
is the centre of Holy God Parion religion in this kingdom, so they tried to
convince their devotees that Holy God Parion would answer their prayers and
come to their aid. The head miko tried to commune with God for the past 2
weeks, and she got God’s Oracle 3 days ago. If only she knows how loli Goddess
truly is, but I can’t speak bad against my Master by contract.
The oracle spoke of the resurrection of a Demon Lord by
heretics who turn to the believe in Demon God. The cathedral and the populace
around it turned panic by such revelation. If I am not mistaken, the Demon God
and its adherents love the panic and fear in people’s emotion. They gain power
from it. This girl appeared very afraid of something, probably she has trauma.
I don’t have mind magic, so I calm her down by words and attention. She treats
the head priest like an elder brother and head miko as an elder sister. I am
not a lolicon, but since she’s 18 years old, I allowed her to call me Onii-chan
when addressing me, and got the title <Guardian>.
Since loli Goddess didn’t open her portal, maybe my job is
not done. I decide to enter the cathedral again, but I can’t leave her alone,
so she followed me at the end. I equip the sub-job of a summoner and summon a
holy knight to be a rear guard. My limit is one sub-job at a time. I equip my
best magic shield, magic armour, and my holy sword this time. I cleared the
cellar, and then go down to clear the catacombs, taking all the loots and wine.
We arrange all the bodies we encounter into proper place with respect, and Maia
offer prayers to them. I hope loli Goddess can hear them and revive them. I have been staying with loli Goddess for
some time, but I never see her revive anyone yet. Is she still being
self-centred? I grew attached to this girl Maia, whose voice and demeanor
resembles my younger sister back in my own world. She used to dote on me, but
then the culture displays aversion towards those who dotes on young preteen
girls, especially between siblings. That time, I decide to move out of the
house to get away from my younger sister, but now I missed her.
When we arrive at a cave, there is a large ritual circle at
the middle of it. I slay all the demons, heretics and adherents around it. I am
still not used to killing humans or those that resemble humanoids, so it was a
bit nauseating. Large percentage of the demon worshippers are demi-humans. They look like minatours, centaurs to me,
Hyrda, or Lamia, so I don’t feel particularly disturbed. It takes some time to
finish all the exploration, and we had meals together with the ration I cook in
between fights. She had poor appetite but she likes her food when I present it to
her properly and coddle her. The last of the adherent said something about
Demon Lord revival while smiling at me and attack me with magic. Maia was
particularly disturbed after all this killings, and became restless. Maia’s
back was glowing and a pattern made of blood, similar to the one on the ground,
ooze out from it. I change my sub-job to <Priest> and cast all sorts of
holy magic on her until my mana ran low. I asked the talking holy sword, but it
said the curse was irreversible. Inevitably, she lose her life and a Demon Lord
sprang out from her body, leaving it as an empty husk.
In anger, I fought fiercely with this Demon Lord with Taming
Sari, my magic shield, and my magic armour. The Demon Lord is level 80, and
have unique skills <Growing Power>, <Skill Steal – all shall be
mine>, and <Escape – nothing can lock me up>. The Demon Lord looks
down onto me and steal some of my skills, but I still proceed to kill him with
my sword skills as he didn’t think of escaping. The entire battle takes about
half a day, with most of the time listening to the ridicule from the Demon Lord
as he steals one after another of my skills, and uses it against me. I managed
to deal a critical blow after setting up a large trap and then finish the Demon
Lord off with sub-job <Assassin> before it can escape. The Demon Lord
just newly revived, so his powers were still weak and the <Growing Power>
skill is still in its infancy. I got <Resist Skill Steal> skill during
midway of the fight, which is helpful.
The portal finally opened in front of me and I carry the
corpse of the little girl Maia with me into the portal. Loli Goddess said it
was too late to revive her; even she is not almighty in the matter of life and
death. We healed the body and I bury her with other bodies at the cathedral
catacombs after explaining the details to an official from the castle. I marked
the grave properly, hold a funeral, and give my blessings. I came back through
the portal, take a bath with water magic, and sleep, feeling moody. Loli
Goddess read my mind and tries to help alleviate my mood by asking about my
family and inquire about my little sister. It hit a sore spot and in me because
there is so much I wish to retort; I wish to see my family, why a Goddess like
you can’t grant free travel between worlds, why you don’t open a portal earlier
and save Maia before she got turned to Demon Lord, why don’t you able to revive
her despite being a Goddess, why don’t you go around the world to fight your
own battles, why don’t you help your own believers before it’s too late, etc,
etc. But I know, as usual, I can’t get the answer, so I just keep quiet.
Loli Goddess just kept quiet, and then asked if I want her
as a family. I couldn’t answer. She then change her question and ask if she is
qualified to be my family member. I can’t really understand, but I can’t accept
her as a family member just from the get go, and what relationship we will
have. I can’t take her as a wife, so I just plainly answer “Sister, be my
sister”.
“Ok, then I will call you Onii-chan from now on” (loli
Goddess)
(Third person view)
After many years in the new world, the Hero got used to the
way there and continued to exterminate Demon Lords and their believers. His
number of skills soared, his mastery of them is max, and he is now level 129.
He can now control <Space Magic>, so he can move in and out whenever he
needs to, just need to report to loli Goddess to get approval. The hero also
developed his own magic after discovering an interface that can allow him to
modify the source code of magic. He developed <Command Magic>, setting up
spells made of word choice he preset and activate it when he invoke the name
without chanting. This concept was conceived by observing how his holy sword
works.
The hero then further refined the source code and came out
with <Word Magic>, by combining several of the words together, can create
almost countless amount of various magic. The analogy of <Command Magic>
is similar to an action script, we call an action with a command. The analogy of <Word Magic> is similar
to binary language, we set the words into pieces to invoke a command, but we
can change the parameter of each word, making them stronger, longer, faster,
etc. This allows Hero to use magic with control over the magnitude, direction,
speed, start point and end point, time it start and stop, etc. It was truly one
of a kind magic, but also a very tedious magic. The hero is still developing
for a way to merge <Command Magic> and <Word Magic>, a directory is
needed to control such a large array of magic.
“Good morning Onii-chan” (loli Goddess)
“Good morning Goddess-sama” (Hero)
“Ehehe, call me Parion-chan or imotou-chan is alright, we
are family right?” (loli Goddess)
“I think calling you Goddess-sama can show more of your
dignity” (said Hero, but he don’t feel so close to loli Goddess)
“So cold. You are so cold to me” (loli Goddess)
The hero changes to <Chef> sub-job and makes breakfast
for ten people, including himself. Today’s breakfast is two sunny side eggs,
smoked meat from loin area stuffed with bay leaf, nutmeg, onion, pepper,
marjoram, sage, and thyme with cheese topping, baked corn, muffin bread with
strawberry jam or mayonnaise for filling, seasoned fried unagi, and a plate of
salad.
“Akon Kagura is a sleepyhead, you only awake when there is
food” (loli Goddess)
(Third party view)
Present were the 7 Pillar Gods, Dragon God, and Magic God.
Only Demon God was not invited. Magic God was also present even though he was a
busy bee.
The other gods brought their specialties; Dragon God brought
Divine Spring wine, Heraruon brought golden apples, Garleon brought board
games, Urion brought weighing scales, Zaikuon brought comic books and manga,
Karion brought groundbreaking research papers, Tenion brought gossip magazines,
and Magic God brought magic tomes and magic tools.
The rest is just a pandemonium. The hero mingled with the
gods until they are all wasted away. Getting drunk in noon is a bad habit, so
Magic God go off to monitor the construction of floating castles and Hero went
off through his <Portal> skill to check all the Gods’ main temples for
any disturbance cause by Demon God. Luck may seem to turn a blind eye that day,
as an unexpected thing happened.
Demon God choose to attack the hero personally. Demon God
tried planting his <Seed of Discord> into the hero when Demon God
adherents acting as trainee priests in Zaikuon temple saw him. Demon God used
his magic to carry the <Seed of Discord> by wind as quickly and quietly
as possible to sneak into the hero. By the time, the Hero has already captured
the Demon God adherents by using <Evil Detection> spell. To slaughter
them or to cure them, the Gods don’t mind, but just don’t let panic and chaos
erupt that may feed the demons. The resistance of the Hero is very high, but
not impenetrable, so it remained lodged there for the time being.
Hero choose to bring the Demon God adherents to meet someone
better suited in mind magic in order to turn them back to normal. He saw his
body’s resistance reacted and suspected that someone is cursing skills at him
from far away. Hero selected sub-job of <Saint> and begin to cast all the
holy spells and anti-curse spells he knew one after another onto himself. When
he looked around, he saw a teenage-sized person under a cleric robe. He
proclaimed that he’s an orphan from the temple, and 3 of the priests that the
hero captured are his benefactors. The orphan teenager is well mannered, and
seems to have good upbringing. The orphan teenager then politely requested for
his benefactors to be returned safely, but the hero refused flatly, stating
that they are Demon God adherents. The orphan teenager continued to plea for
his benefactors’ release, and that time the <Seed of Discord> has begin
to spread to the captured priests, turning them into mindless greater demon.
The hero has no choice but to began killing the greater demons before they sow
more chaos and fear. The orphan teenager
ran away, and later met up with one of the surviving priestess from the temple,
who is also a Demon God adherent. The orphan accidentally got his hood blown to
the back when he ran, which revealed that he’s a dog-headed demihuman with
purple fur.
The War of Gods happened in several phases. The first phase
occur after the hero returned to God’s Garden subspace. The <Seed of
Discord> mutated to <Seed of
Evil> ran wild there. The gods have a hard time to contain the spread of the
virus with holy magic. The virus actually feed on holy magic, light magic and
also shadow and darkness magic.
During that time, the hero was already almost a corpse
state, half-dead. All but one god proposes for the hero to be purged with
<Annihilation> magic, only loli Goddess against this idea. The hero was
quarantined inside an infected area surrounded by pure white
<Annihilation> magic. Loli Goddess broke the God’s rule and stayed with
the hero. She surmised that the entire God’s Garden subspace and the Gods are
already infected with the corruption, they only reacted slower in God’s body. The
hero experimented on many spells to counter the spread of the evolved <Seed
of Evil>. He then arrived at the conclusion that only the concept of
nothingness can erase the effect of the evolved
<Seed of Evil>. The concept of nothingness or nihilism is similar
to the <Annihilation> effect, and also covers the scope of time. Therefore,
the Sword of Nothingness or Nihilistic Sword was conceptualise to defeat the infection
from <Seed of Evil>, overturning the <Foresight> and
<Prediction> that the hero will succumb to <Seed of Evil> and attack
the Gods.
The hero in his last vestige of lingering control over his body, forged the Nihilistic Sword with Magic God's technical skill and knowledge, and used the sword to slash and absorb away the <Seed of Evil> from the hero's body, and removed the parasite from other infected areas and people. The hero got closer to loli Goddess during all this
commotion and opened his heart to her. Magic God aided in the construction of
the Nihilistic sword, so he requested the hero to make another sword with the
concept of space with him, therefore the Dimensional sword was forged. Magic
God took both swords away after the Dimensional sword is completed, and started
the second phase of War of Gods.
Magic God claimed to be using that sword to stop Demon God
after stealing them out from the Hero’s safe. In actuality, Magic God has
awakened to his chuunibyo dream of fighting with 2 such powerful swords in both
hands, shouting “Dual-wield kitaa”. Magic God killed many Demon God believers
and also members of 7 Pillar Gods believers indiscriminately. He claimed that
many of the members of the 7 Pillar Gods are actually Demon God adherents.
Magic God’s actions are more detrimental to the 7 Pillar Gods and to their
belief system, sparking fear and hatred that was readily harnessed by Demon God
and his adherents. Though Magic God is very helpful and runs errands for The 7
Pillar Gods, they convene for a solution of Magic God’s rampage and decided to utilize
[God-Sealing Rainbow
Gem] that has the symbols of 7 Pillar God and Magic God on it. Regrettably,
they have to seal one of their God partner inside the seal they developed
together. The Hero and 7 Pillar Gods work together to seal the Magic God.
Dragon God Akon Kagura is a battle maniac, so they didn’t request its
participation.
The
third phase of the War of Gods begin when humans and humanoids creatures openly
oppose Gods and try to power-level their way to Godhood, and Demon God decide
to gain as much divinity during this period by spreading fear. The 7 Pillar
Gods were angry, but Dragon God just continue to sleep off, because Dragon God
gain divinity while sleeping and it felt left out from the group of gods. The
chasing of Magic God to seal him in the [God-Sealing Rainbow Gem] is finally coming to an end as he
is cornered. The battle is exhausting for both sides.
(Hero’s
POV)
“Why
are you choosing to fight alone?” (Hero)
“The
other Gods are concentrating on holding back Demon God” (loli Goddess)
“You
can at least let me help” (Hero)
“No,
you continue to help our believers, and destroy those Demon God adherents and
those traitors who want to usurp God’s seats” (loli Goddess)
I
can’t believe it. I will follow my master everywhere, even to the end of the
world.
The other
Gods have passed a sealing array that will seal a divine being and transport it
to somewhere out of the planet. They put the destination to be on the moon, to
reduce collateral damage.
Meanwhile,
at the capital:
“The
Gods are not impervious! We are the elites. We will kill the whimsical gods and
take what was rightfully ours!” (Elite adventurer 1)
“Yeah,
kill them. Those gods are treating us as lifestocks for the slaughter” (Elite
adventurer 2)
(Third
person view)
There
were several adventurers at level 120 to 150 mixed in among them. They have
incredible stats and possessed many extremely potent skills, they are almost
demigod level, they are high humans, and many people worship them rather than
gods. Even the kings approve of them.
The
gods offer no real tangible aid, and these adventurers, some have live for
several centuries or close to a millennium, have great reputation as the real
flesh and blood that help the people in times of need.
These
great talents are usually managed by the Magic God as the centre, but with the
decision of the Gods to sue Magic God for heresy, the people’s belief in God
system was deeply shaken. Magic God’s indiscriminate killing of people have
made the Magic God’s believers disillusioned and he’s now a lone fugitive, but
stripped of his title and position.
Hero’s
POV
I am
currently in front of Magic God’s Floating Castle, one of his hideout, together
with Goddess Parion.
“I
will defend you till the end, Master. Please concentrate to seal the Magic God”
(Hero)
“No,
don’t go set off bad flag. We will prevail” (Loli Goddess)
“Of
course we will prevail. I don’t plan to leave you alone” (Hero)
I
have earned the title <Guardian of Little Girls>. This must have been
written by the system as a joke. I strongly want to say I’m not a lolicon, but
I can’t say that when I am with Parion-chan. I change my sub-job to [God’s
Apostle], wear my best holy armour I forged, and equipped myself with my
talking holy sword, Taming Sari, and a kite holy shield enchanted with
[Non-destruction].
We
fought off many greater demons and Demon Lords near the castle. The Demon Lords
all have purple hair. They are mostly demihumans – dog, boar, goblin, troll,
and their multiple summons. They all posses unique skills that are quite
troublesome, but with <Command Magic> and <Word Magic>, I can still
take care of the Demon Lords. My master’s as a god is quite a capable fighter
herself, but she is not suitable to deal with many small fries.
Inside
the castle hall, we face off against many adventurers whole level is over 100.
They fought to the bitter end, trying to take me down at every turn and calling
me a Parion’s dog. When one of them defeated, they return back to fighting form
by ingesting a drug and sniff in the thick miasma lingering in the castle, only
to be defeated again. Their second form is grotesque, but their raw physical,
agaility, and magical power greatly enhanced. I use <Word Magic> to
remove the miasma and fought and defeat the rest of the adventurers. They are
very strong, because their level is very high and they have blessings from
Magic God. One of the adventurers even manages to break my holy armour that can
protect once against instant-kill move, so I can only change to a downgraded
one as I have no spare. We proceed down the maze of rooms, but got attack
halfway through by some thing lurking in the shadow. There were black tendrils
moving at great speed, and I use <Word Magic> to boost both our speed and
agility. The tendrils spoke some chunnibyo-esque sentences ‘You insolent fool
who dare challenge our god, one who rules everything in this world. You would
do well to worship the ally of the supreme’. I immediately destroy the shadow
knights. The shadow can continuously regenerate and new Shadow Knight continues
to grow and come at us relentlessly. I use <Word Magic> to put a barrier
for me and Goddess Parion, light up the whole room with bright light, and kill
them off with jets of fire and laser. We navigate through the maze of rooms
while killing more Shadow Knights, and found Magic God deep inside his lab with
many drawn magic circles on the entire room.
Fighting
with God level, even for me at level 169, is no joke. Since Magic God is using
both Sword of Nihilism and Dimensional Sword, I can’t even be grazed by any of
them without suffering great damage. Magic God’s divinity is quite significant,
and his attitude was totally serious compared to the time we used to be friends
as people from another world.
When
Magic God was immobilized inside a painting, Holy Goddess Parion activated the [God-Sealing Rainbow Gem] to
capture him. However, the one that appeared to be sealed within is the Demon
God. We were totally caught by surprise and Goddess Parion was shocked. Magic
God broke out of the painting with many bruise and cuts, but he still smile
smugly. He said that Demon God was a fool for thinking that they can share the
power after they rule the world. Magic God said that he did the 7 Pillar Gods
and Dragon God a favour, so he asks to be pardoned and rewarded. However, the
<Foresight>, <Prediction>, <Evil Detection> seem to indicate
his words are false. Goddess Parion ask the Magic God to wait for the other
gods to arrive, leaving the judgement to Urion.
In
an instant, Magic God flung the Nihilistic Sword at Goddess Parion. I used my
<Word Magic> chantlesssly to put a barrier in front of her, while moving
her away from the location to somewhere I deem safe, and open my Infinite
Stowing (Inventory) to gladly accept the weapon I once forge with my hands.
This turn out to be a ruse, as Magic God used <Aport Object> and place
the blade through me. The blade expanded and my entire being is been
obliterated, leaving nothing behind.
(Other
God’s view)
During
the sealing of Magic God, we, the 6 Gods tried to stop Demon God rampage, aided
by the attack of Dragon God that went wild after Demon God sent a trickster
that played tricks on the Dragon God and tick it off from its slumber.
Demon
God enjoyed the chaos and gain delight, divinity, and strength. The 6 of us
agreed to execute the emergency plan, and pour our divinity into the sealing array
device. The divinity needed to maintain the world system dropped below critical
stage and many natural disasters and earthquakes happen all around the world.
During the sealing of Magic God by Parion, Demon God appear to interrupt her,
and got sealed in that [God-Sealing
Rainbow Gem].
We
then proceed to use the sealing array to seal the cornered Magic God when we
arrive.
(Loli
Goddess POV)
I
fought as hard as I can against the damned Magic God. How dare he just kill off
someone so precious to me. Let me hit you a million more times before we throw
you to the moon. I intend to bring back my familiar, no matter how long it
takes.
“Let’s
gather some of our divinity and bless our hero so that his essence can gather
back” (loli Goddess)
“You
sure you want to ascend him to the same level as us?” (Heraruon)
“Yes”
(loli Goddess)
The
7 Pillar Gods gathered a little of their divinity and offer it to the system to
ascend the hero to demigod so that his essence may gather and emerge again as a
whole in the future. Even the gods can’t revive a dead person that has been
obliterated, leaving nothing behind. They hope the hero’s split souls can at
least be recovered enough in the future.
The 7 Pillar Gods henceforth create Taboo inside the system
to prevent future uprising against Gods. An anti-god barrier is created to
prevent any god from descending to the planet surface easily. The system also
limit all future humanoid race to have an upper level limit of 99 so that no
insolent beings can reach up to God’s rank in the future.
