CH 101

Farewell

As I gazed at the demon king who was decaying and scattering, my phone buzzed~ trembling suddenly.

“Etto~ what is it?”

Oh, it’s an app message that I haven’t received for a long time.

[Congratulations! By solving a crucial problem in this era, you’ve avoided a『Creation Breakdown』! This is the end of ‘Story Mode‧Chapter 1’. Thank you for your hard work]

What the hell is this, what kind of joke is this?

I don’t understand it at all.

How can you say solving this problem is chapter 1?

I mean, it’s first time I heard it.

Maybe it has something to do with [The Sub-God of The End] or something.

After that, the app pushed the logs without permission.

[In addition, after Chapter 1 is over, you cannot stay in this era. Even if you want to visit this era again, it is impossible to achieve, please forgive me.]

Hey, hey, hey, hey!

APP, you’re lying, right? Tell me it’s not true! Don’t push the subject without permission! Don’t say that I can’t stay in this era all of a sudden!

Although I thought so, the logs were released without permission and the message conveyed new content.

[Forced logout will be implemented in about 30 minutes, and time will shift to the future 100 years later as the stage of Chapter 2. If there are things left unfinished in this era or props that you want to acquire, please complete them as soon as possible. The props can be brought to the future by dimensional storage only this time]

You can’t be silly any more, ah, I have to get Momiji hurriedly.

“Sorry Momiji, the time to stay in this era is running out! I will to store you in!”

“Huh? I don’t understand, is everything okay?”

“Yeah.”

I hurriedly store her in dimensional storage and finished what I had to do for the time being.

But the people around me who saw this were suspicious and kept asking me what the hell was going on.

“Hey Kenji! What does it mean that you can’t stay in this era? And if I look closely, your body hasn’t changed at all. What’s happened ……”

First it was Mizzet who asked the question, but I hesitated how to answer.

Although I had obviously revealed the fact that I was not human during the conversation with the Demon King, it was delicate whether I could gain credibility even by saying that I was a creator god ……

As I was thinking about this, Argus frowned and intervened.

“Let’s not pursue this any further. I’m afraid Kenji isn’t from this era. …… No, maybe not only that, but not even from this world. Isn’t that right, God of creation?”

“What? What do you mean?” (Mizzet)

“In short, Kenji is the true god of this world.”

Oh dear, did Argus find out?

Well, after all, I gave him so much suspicious information that I would have been found out.

Even without this incident, from the way he said it, he must have been convinced a long time ago.

If that’s the case, I don’t think it’s possible to fool him.

“I’m sorry I didn’t say anything. I didn’t mean to hide it from everyone, but this avatar is still immature. It’s not convenient to disclose things that are too powerless. Ah, do you understand what avatar means?”

“I think it means a body for relying on. I can imagine something of that magnitude. But, I see…”

Yes, yes, it’s a body for relying.

In terms of imagery, it’s almost like that.

The comprehension is still the same.

But Argus looks even stranger than usual.

This guy also has a lot to hide, so I wonder if there was something that was bothering him.

Then, Argus suddenly bent down deeply and began to bow his head.

“…… O God of Creation. There are countless thanks to you. For saving the people of this continent, when it should have been done by us humans. For thing that created the opportunity for us to stop the war. …… and then the thing that saved my childhood friend by providing a way to undo the demonization and magical props. Either of these things would have been something that I could not have done in any way for just an ordinary human being. I can’t thank you enough for your guidance. Thank you for saving Nasseri.”

“No, it’s not something that needs to be said with such solemnity.”

It’s just a lucky coincidence that made it so.

After all, it’s the first time I’ve realised I’ve saved your childhood friend without knowing it.

But at least I know it’s not the right time for that kind of talk.

Let’s just listen to him in silence for now.

“I apologise for my rudeness so far. But let me say one last thing.” (Argus)

“What’s ……?”

“Well, there’s something I’ve been meaning to tell you.

–Thank you for creating this world of excitement for us.”

Instead of his usual less-than-pleasant expression, Argus said with a cheerful smile like an innocent teenager.

Gosh, is this for real? You can also make a good laugh, huh?

“I’d like to say thank you too. You’ve been a great help in every way, Argus.”

“…Uh? Ah, I’m sorry.”

That’s all I said, but Argus didn’t know what to be ashamed of, so he turned his back and didn’t say a word.

What’s the matter, you’re wearing that mask again after being so pure.

…… No, Agus in this state is also part of the real him, isn’t he?

“Um~, Kenji turned out to be a god-sama. Well, it doesn’t matter.”

“Oh!”

Wait, you don’t care?

Well, to be honest, I don’t care either. The blunty part of this girl seems like it’s still around, but well this is the Mizzet I know.

“More importantly, there’s something I want to tell you when we meet again. Will you listen to me?”

“Okay. I can’t stay here any longer, so if you want say something, do it now.”

“Really, okay, let me saying this.”

Mizet, who said that, suddenly knelt down in front of me and raised the sword hanging from her waist to my face, hanging her head.

What?

What is this?

“I, Paladin Mizzet, acknowledge you as Sovereign and hereby swear.

–My sword will smash all obstacles that stand in your way.

–My shield shall protect you from all malice that may harm you.

–I will follow all the teachings I have learned from you.

–With this sword I swear that I will follow you to the end of eternity.

Will you accept ……?”

“…………”

Is that what that means?

Is Mizzet saying she wants to go to the future together?

Why make such a vow at such a last minute.

But there’s no running away from it now.

This was something I had to face head-on.

“You can’t?”

“No, it’s not that I can’t. But in lieu of that, I also have a request…. If I take the sword and go astray, and if I am thwarted by obstacles, Mizzet, please remind me up, even if you have to beat me up…. Please. And thank you.”

I said this, took the sword and thanked Mizzet who was smiling like a flower again.
