199 – Words of the Goddess
He stares at the sight of lightning falling towards his heart.
die like this?
Neiros himself thought he would be immortal.
But in the end, I have no choice but to end my life like this.
As death approached, Neiros seemed to become strangely clear.
Does being aloof in the face of death mean this? The thunderbolts, apparently flying at an invisible speed, came into my eyes like slow motion.
Now I can see even a kaleidoscope.
“… ?”
But why isn’t it really falling?
No matter how much I said that even a fleeting moment felt long right before I died, that would only be how far I felt.
Now that lightning has definitely slowed down.
“… ■■■.”
A person who can’t call her name properly because of a trivial taboo, but can do this… No, there is only one god in this world.
Except for that woman who is the goddess of amusement.
＜How does it feel to be driven to the brink of death? Neiros.＞
“Shut up.”
Neiros glared at the system window that appeared in front of his eyes at the tone of the goddess of amusement, who was still loftily looking down at him from the sky.
The other side is still sitting in the sky pretending to be an absolute being.
To the subject who was sitting on the same borrowed throne anyway.
＜How sad. How to see a comrade who once fought together to defeat the gods in the sky, dying at the hands of humans like this.＞
“Don’t f*ck!”
At the pitying tone of the goddess of amusement, Neiros let out a voice.
The reason why it fell from the sky in the first place is all because of the goddess of amusement. Originally, there would be no problem if God touched the Bible.
It is easy to modify the contents even if there is only a godhead, and in fact, it is not a matter of touching fate and making it inevitable.
If you had a godhead like the current Lian, twisting your fate would be nothing, even if it was written in the Bible.
“Stop saying that and help me!!”
Neiros shouted and looked at the slow but steady approaching thunderbolt.
It’s really slow, but it’s coming. It’s not like it’s stopped at all, time really slows down… Is it impossible to stop time through the system in the underworld?
Or did you put it in this state to threaten me with something else?
＜Can I help you?＞
Neiros, who frowned at the way the goddess of amusement asked, nodded without hesitation.
If I could live, I could at least get down on my knees.
In the end, even if you build up your pride, there will be no change in the fact that you are Neiros and Eul in the current situation, and you just have to return it later.
Yes, if you get out of the current situation, you can live as a happy goddess again… .
＜Then I agree to take the godhead.＞
“What?”
At the words of the goddess of amusement, Neiros looked at a contract in the form of a system in front of his eyes without saying anything.
The more I read, the more treaties that seemed to advertise unfairness were presented to Neiros.
The content that started with giving her almost all of the godheads was a contract that was almost like a slave contract to change the perception of the few believers and transfer them to her subdivision.
The only reward is to save them from the current situation.
In fact, any decent human being would choose death rather than choose to survive through a contract like this.
Especially for the writers called God, that would be even worse.
They try to avoid bowing their heads at all costs.
Around the time when the 12 ministers were still in the sky.
The 12 main gods allowed humans freedom of religion to worship only themselves, so dozens or hundreds of gods were created.
Like Neiros, there are cases where the divine status has risen by being worshiped by spirits.
In some cases, like Rachel and Rachel, people’s prayers alone have turned them into divine beings.
If such an offer had been made to two people like Rachel and Rachel, who had been raised as gods since their birth, they would have been rejected unconditionally.
Rather, he would have mocked himself and greeted death by saying that he wanted to win against Lian even while doing this.
“…Ugh.”
But Neiros is different.
While living as spirits, they accidentally saved the village, and people who worshiped them appeared.
Her faith, which started in a small village, gradually increased in size, and her deity was born by worshiping her as a god even in a really small kingdom.
Yes, a woman named Neiros is a bitch who was not worshiped in the first place.
In the spirit realm, Neiros, who was often bullied because of the so-called princess disease, fled to the underworld where the spirits had no magic and were ruled by humans who didn’t know how to do anything other than fight.
Neiros accidentally saved a village from the spirit realm, where he fled to meet other spirits, and became worshiped for that.
Neiros, who was always bullied, became a goddess worshiped in the human world.
That alone changed the environment around him, and Neiros tasted it himself.
That’s why she will value honor more than pride.
Like the gods again, she expects only the honor that follows and someone’s response, not pride as a god.
That’s why the Goddess of Play made this suggestion to her.
＜If you stay under me, you can be worshiped forever. There may be restrictions, but if you die, you will be forgotten by humans forever.＞
Now, the Neiros Church still has a significant portion of its position, but it is no exaggeration to say that it is only a matter of time before it collapses as the church’s central point, from the saints to the cardinals and even the Pope, has disappeared.
“… So you want me to be your slave?”
＜Slave is harsh. Let’s just say it’s a god who signed a contract with A and E.＞
Neiros felt humiliated at the fact that the goddess of amusement was shaking the more he talked.
can live
Now, the more I feel the slightly tingling lightning approaching the ship, the more I seriously think about whether that’s a good condition.
＜If you don’t like it, say no. Then, instead of the thunderbolt in front of your eyes, the thunderbolt filled with the power of Zeus will pierce your body and turn you from a beautiful goddess into a deep-black whole.”
Neiros trembled at the tone of the goddess of amusement, which was nothing different from a threat, and looked at the contract that appeared in front of his eyes once again.
“I’m not dying… .”
can live
You can get out of your current situation and enjoy that glory once again.
The more I thought about it, the more I read the contract in front of me in my head and began to rationalize and interpret it.
Yes, as long as you can live. Even if you lose your godhood, it doesn’t mean that you don’t have any means to recover it.
Besides, even if your actions are restricted, it doesn’t matter since you’re sitting in the divine realm and only listening to the voices of those who worship you!
It’s unfortunate that you can’t make angels, but there are spirits you haven’t eaten yet, so you can use them and then eat them to restore your godhood.
After roughly speaking in his head, Neiros carefully opened his mouth.
“Live… .”
“It can’t be like that.”
Kwajik!!
What do you think you heard?
weird. Apparently, the Goddess of Game made time flow slowly, and only she, who had a high level of godhood, was openly conversing like this.
Who the hell are you?
And again, why is consciousness gradually blurring?
Could it be that the Goddess of Play killed me as soon as I said I signed a contract with her?
“I still have a troublesome bitch, but if you become that bitch’s subordinate, I can’t handle it.”
Hearing the voice of a single man, Neiros died as he watched his body become increasingly helpless without making a proper contract.
According to the goddess, there was no true salvation after all.
Her ending was a tragedy.
