Chapter 74 – Impossible to Understand Each Other….Doesn’t Matter

I thought we could understand each other if we talk about certain things but it seems impossible.

The fundamental differences are too great for us to understand each other.

Talking is just a waste of time.

「Sigh」

This is not a pleasant experience.

「What’s wrong?」

「Nothing.」

Let’s ask something else.

What should I ask?

「Come to think of it, he said I’m no longer human but, do you know what I became?」

God Deme said something like that before when he went to this planet.

He said I’m no longer considered a human.

「You are the first-ever one to be like that so we still don’t know what you have become.」

God thinks about precedents too?

I mean, I guess they should since it will be a good reference.

Unfortunately, I’m the first case.

「Don’t tell me I’m an unknown entity?」

「Exactly」

Hahaha, I’m an unknown entity.

So I guess there’s no point in asking any more questions.

Somehow, I feel like this conversation has become parallel.

Perhaps later….

「Aren’t you surprised?」

Goddess Aion asked me. What does she want to know?

「No, I’m surprised.」

「I see. My bad.」

How could I not be surprised?

However, something inside me is telling me “It can’t be helped” suppressing my shock.

I wonder if this is an effect of a gift.

But then again, maybe it’s suppressing me from asking if I’m an experiment of the gods now.

….no way.

「By the way, what’s going to happen to this planet?」

Yeah, I’d like you to stabilize this planet.

I was worried when Rope said that it was unstable.

「I’m going to manage this planet for now so I’d like to ask you a favor.」

A favor?

「What is it?」

「I want you to let me take control of this planet.」

Eh?

Aren’t you a god? Why do you even need to ask me that kind of thing?

「Please, do so.」

「Good. Can you remove the barrier? I tried to remove it with my power but I couldn’t?」

Barrier?

What are you talking about?

Besides, isn’t Rope the one in charge?

「Isn’t it funny to ask me that since Rope’s the one who’s controlling this world?」

「Rope?」

Areh?

You don’t know?

Didn’t you get the help of the god that can control time?

I thought you already knew.

「The way you name others is simply interesting.」

Argh, I didn’t mean to!

「Please don’t mention it.」

I mean, please don’t look so disappointed.

If I could, I would have changed its name too.

However, they liked it and don’t want another name so I can only give up….

Well, I know Boss-san and Fluff Ball are….I know I don’t have a good naming sense.

Ah, it’s all my fault for just giving them those names, taking advantage of the fact that they don’t know Japanese.

If anyone complains, I will sincerely apologize.

「So, where is Rope?」

「I don’t know.」

I haven’t asked its whereabouts yet.

「You don’t know? Who is this Rope?」

「So, who is this Rope?」

「I don’t know.」

「You don’t know?」

「We can only communicate via voices. As for what is Rope…..it looks like a big stone.」

I never got any information on how Rope looks aside from the video that Flying Lizard showed me.

I don’t even know how many shimenawa are there in this world.

I don’t even remember how I made it unconsciously.

Areh?

It seems like I did not imagine shimenawa just once….I’m certain that I imagined it twice….well, okay.

「A big stone?」

「Yeah.」

Ah, by the way, I can always hear Rope first but, can I communicate with him first?

Let’s see….I imagined a big stone wrapped around by a shimenawa and imagined my voice reaching it.

「Rope, can you hear me?」

「What are you doing?」

I did it without telling her anything so Goddess Aion stared at me curiously.

I should have explained it to her before I did this.

How embarrassing.

It’s not good to do things immediately as soon as I think of them.

I’m a different person compared to who I used to be so I guess this is an effect of the gifts.

『Your lordship, did you call for me! You’ve never contacted me first before!』

A voice suddenly rings out from the air.

I was the one who called out but to be honest, I’m scared.

I was hoping to get at least some warning.

「Sorry, are you free?」

『If your lordship needs me, I’m always free.』

「Thanks.」

Hnn?

The gods are quiet.

When I look at the two of them, they are both stunned.

「What’s wrong?」

「This presence, a magic stone of fortune!」

Magic stone of fortune?

Magic? You mean that kind of magic?

What about the character “fortune”?

Is it luck? Yield? I don’t understand….

At least I know a stone is.

Magic stone of luck?

TN: He’s basically thinking what those characters mean. As some of you know 魔 may mean demon, magic, or evil. While the 幸 may mean, luck, fortune, yield, blessing.

「Magic stone of fortune? No way! Seriously?」

That was Flying Lizard.

He seems to know about it.

「Do you know what it is?」

「It is said that if you offer the blood of the child of heaven and the blood of the child of hell to the magic stone of fortune, it will give you new powers.」

Blood of the child of heaven?

Are you talking about the angels?

Blood of the child of hell….ah, the egg.

And if you offer their blood to the magic stone of fortune, it will give you new powers?

「Rope, are you a magic stone of fortune?」

『…..ah, that want they called us. However, it’s already in the past. Now, I’m a sacred tree that protects his lordship.』

Sacred tree?

No, I think you’re not.

Are you remembering it wrong?

Should I correct it?

However, let’s ask them what the character “Kou(fortune)” means first.

「Ro….」

「What is happening? How can the magic stone of fortune have its own will?」

I guess it’s not time for me to ask huh.

『Your lordship, who are you with? I can’t see them and they are giving me a very bad feeling.』

Hnn?

You mean Rope can see us?

『Your lordship?』

Rope’s voice lowers a little.

It is as if it is being vigilant about something.

「Ah, sorry. I’m with Goddess Aion and God Deme.」

『………』

Hnn?

Could it be that Rope didn’t hear me?

「Rope?」

『Your lordship, don’t trust gods. They only care about themselves.』

Rope’s atmosphere suddenly changed.

His voice sounds cold.

Do you have something against gods?

「Are you insulting gods?」

God Deme raises his voice.

This god has a bit of a temper.

I guess he was very patient last time.

『It’s not an insult. I’m just telling his lordship the truth.』

「What the hell!」

『You’re mad because the truth hurts, right? Idiot.』

「Bastard! You’re just a magic stone of fortune!」

『Haa, and what can you do?』

What’s this?

Are they going to fight?

I mean, a fight between a god and a big stone….

「Rope, that’s enough. Also, God Deme, please calm down.」

Why am I even stopping them?

Goddess Aion is dumbfounded for some reason.

I guess I can’t rely on her.

『My apologies, your lordship. I don’t have any good impression of gods. After making me, they locked me away because they didn’t want me.』

I see. So that’s the cause of your grudge.

However, why were you locked away?

……..I don’t really want to know about it but it’s about Rope.

I think Goddess Aion can give me a more decent answer compared to Rope or God Deme.

「Goddess Aion, it’s about time for you to come back to your senses. And, can you please explain it to me?」

Goddess Aion turned her gaze to me.

After opening and closing her mouth a few times, she shut it tightly.

It looks like she can’t talk about it.

『Your lordship, I am a magic stone of fortune, a stone of power created by the gods.』

It looks like it will be Rope’s duty to explain.

Goddess Aion looks a little scared but, well, why is she like that?

「And?」

『Five magic stones of fortune were made including me. However, the gods only certified one as successful. By the way, I’m one of those failures.』

A failure.

『However, that’s only at the gods’ point of view and not how we see it.』

「What’s the difference?」

『According to us, four of us were successful and one is a failure.』

「No, that can’t be. There should only be one success.」

Goddess Aion hurriedly corrects Rope.

This is going to be something complicated.

I mean, I don’t even see the part where this has something to do with me.
