Chapter 30: Corona's Answer

"If you are a software developer. Will you work for the money or for customer satisfaction?"

Corona froze after the statement being told by the goddess. He was confused with that which was led him to ask her,

"Software developer? Hey! I'm a goddess, not a tech guy like you!"

Kuso replied simply,

"Alright. Let's replace Software Developer with Goddess. If you are a goddess, then will you work for the fame, or work for the society who received your blessings?"

He was frozen without words that could be able to be told by him. In his mind, he reminded himself of the first time. A thousand years ago when he was a goddess.

The higher tier goddess at the hall of the gods in the heaven had bestowed him with a broadsword and the shield that could be able to use by him to fight and become the strongest one, with a reason to be strong.

"Protect the ones you loved and the ones who received your blessing."

The short memories of him had been faded out from his memory, and he answered to the goddess shortly.

"I don't know, Kuso. Unlike you who have a clear goal, I never have that plan before in my life."

Kuso looked at her in a silence where everyone was not there. A wind had blown her yellow hair and it was spread to show her beauty as a goddess who in the soul, was a man known once as a software developer.

However, the petite god who formerly owned her body before had frozen into the unknown, he was no longer be able to say anything about it. Anything that he wanted to say was the words that would be able to be checkmated by Kuso easily.

Still, Kuso was not evil enough to ruin someone's mental. To her, he may be the goddess, but she knew that he would not be able to stand for what she wanted to say next. It led her to respond to her answer as she patted his head.

"It is fine for not knowing what you actually wanted for. But, as the power had comes to you. You have to know that greater powers come with greater responsibility. So, think carefully about what I have told you today. You are a goddess of war. And I'm only a mere programmer who you contracted to help you to rebuild this world and then, save everyone who received your blessing."

She moved out from his eyes calmly as she did not want to hurt him more from her words. She was clear enough that she wanted the goddess to know of how fatal his statement as if he spoke those as a goddess. Not as himself.

With the goddess walked out from the place. The petite God commanded,

"Root: Order"

With the command being told. A sapphire-colored broadsword with a wing-shaped shield being thrown almost instantly in front of the goddess. And the petite god requested,

"Bestow my name, Kuso Amakusa. As The Fourth Technoknight and the man with Goddess of war's everything. I'm here, Corona the goddess of war and the commander of The Technoknights had unlocked all of the features my body had. I will take all of the accounts of every case possible to the higher gods. Just use all of my power wisely as you said, `great power comes with greater responsibility`"

"Why would you do that? Isn't that means that I will have the power as much as a typical main character in a typical isekai novel?" Kuso Questioned the petite god, and he answered.

"You know the responsibility and the power better than me. I may be a goddess. But I just a normal eighteen years old girl who only knows how to bless and kill. To be honest, unlike yourself, I don't have a clear target for me."

He knelt and bow in front of the goddess who looked at her, and he continued.

"A goddess who knelt to the mortal is indeed shameful. But, I did not kneel for a mortal without any apparent reason. Enlighten me with your wisdom as a man, Kuso. I will give you all of the things I own as an exchange for all of them. I just want everyone to be happy. Simple as that."

"Then Let's rebuild this Cathedral as fast as possible. And then, the warehouse and finally the housing. Once we have set with those, Trust me. Everyone will regain their belief in you."

With the statement being told by the goddess, he continued to speak as he was kneeling in front of the goddess.

"Be the goddess of war under my body, Kuso. That is the only request I wanted you for that."

"What?" The goddess looked at her in a surprised face, and it led her to question him.

"What was the drive that led you to sacrifice the biggest thing you have ever, Corona?"

With a questioning tone being heard by the petite god, he answered her with a resolute tone

"Because...."
