Chapter 21 – Quiet Talk: The Demands of the Creator God and the Response of the Gods
“Hey, God of Light, isn’t Wataru-kun amazing these days?”
“Yes, although he still doesn’t fight on his own. The dark elf migration, the success of the pepper trade, I see he’s doing a great job.”
“Right, and it proves that I am right, doesn’t it? The God of War and others need to reflect on what they said about the wrong choice of skills I gave to Wataru-kun. They need to get down on their knees and admit their own lack of discernment in complaining to the Creator God.”
“Sigh, the God of War and the other gods acknowledge Wataru-kun’s efforts, but they don’t acknowledge the Creator God, do they?”
“Eh? Why don’t they acknowledge me? I mean, why are we talking about whether or not they acknowledge me? I am the Creator God, the greatest God in this world who created this world. That’s impossible, isn’t it?”
“Because of the Creator God’s past actions, they have completely lost respect for you. So I think it is possible.”
“Eh? They have completely lost respect for me, you say? Me, the Creator God, and the God who created them?”
“Yes, and by the way, so have I.”
“Eh? Why?”
“If you ask me why, I can only answer that I can’t find anything to respect.”
“Hahaha, the God of Light has gotten good at jokes.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, there is no god who does not respect me. But for a moment, I thought I might be in trouble.”
“I don’t think anyone cares about respect for you, do they? But if you disagree, would you like to take a survey?”
“Not that I care, but… I don’t think I have to do the survey. Because it’s obvious that I am being respected, so there’s no need to do anything unnecessary. I’d rather have the God of War and the others say sorry for making fun of the ship summoning skill. God of Light, go call them.”
“I don’t mind calling them over, but are you serious?”
“Of course, it was the God of War and the others who made the mistake, and they are probably regretting it right now, so let them apologize. It’s very easy, isn’t it?”
……………
“…That’s what the Creator God said.”
“God of Light, is the Creator God going insane?”
“I know exactly what you mean, God of Magic, but I’m afraid he’s sane.”
“I see… God of War, can you do something to that guy?”
“Unfortunately, I can’t. If I could, I would have done it by now. The bad news is, even among the Creator Gods, he’s so powerful that even all of us are no match for him.”
“I see… that’s unpleasant.”
“Well, I admit that the otherworlder is doing his best, but I still don’t think the Creator God made the right choice in his skill set. I have nothing to apologize for.”
“As a God of Entertainment, I’d expect more from a luxury cruise ship, but I think there were a lot of skills that could have made it more interesting. The only skills that the otherworlder really wanted were clairvoyance and sharing the five senses with slime. It’s a pity that despite being a pervert, the small scale of what he wants makes him feel like a small man.”
“I guess it can’t be helped, considering that his skills are suited to being a recluse, but what about the fact that he has only directly defeated horned rabbits and goblins?”
“Umu, the mere mention of the possibility of civil war in the country he was visiting made him immediately consider withdrawing from the area. Not that I’m asking him to stop the civil war, but he might consider using this as an opportunity to make a name for himself.”
“Everyone, this is turning into a complaint about Wataru-san.”
“Not really, God of Light, for it is the Creator God’s skill choices that are causing the dissatisfaction with the behavior of the otherworlder. What’s the point of giving him skills to be a recluse if he’s just too cowardly to do anything about it?”
“I admit that the otherworlder is acting in his own timid way right now. If the Creator God had given him skills to act with a little more security, there would have been no problem.”
“Certainly, God of Magic may be right. With the ship summoning and the skills to protect himself on land, he might have been more active, but isn’t it too much of a favor?”
“I don’t see why not. I think I would have given him a stronger and more useful skill than the ship summoning, even after I suppressed the power I gave him. Considering that, I still don’t see any problem with giving him something.”
“Hmm, but as the Creator God said, I too think that that skill is a great but late bloomer skill. Being able to buy and use things from other worlds is a big advantage, don’t you think?”
“Umu, I know that. That’s why I said I would wait and see until the luxury liner. But then the Creator God started saying crazy things like apologizing for the current situation. Then we’ll have to judge him by the current status of the otherworlder. That skill has not yet blossomed, and I’m sure the God of Magic is talking from that point of view.”
“The God of War is right, because the late bloomer type skill is irrelevant at this moment. If we think in terms of power at the present time, wouldn’t the God of Light think that the power he has given him is too little?”
“I agree with what you say. However, I am sure that Wataru-san will get a luxury cruise ship sooner or later. If we give him power now, we will have given him too much later. I also think it is best to wait and see, but I believe that the Creator God thinks that he has shown the usefulness of the ship summoning enough even now.”
“I don’t know what the Creator God thinks. The only achievements of the otherworlder are the pepper trade and the migration of the dark elves. And cooking? There are people who can do that even without unique skills, and I don’t think it proves that the ship summoning is right.”
“Why is it that it is a late bloomer type in the first place? Up until now, when we give something to someone, it has developed a certain degree of power. That’s why they could manage even in an unfamiliar world. I wonder if it was even necessary to make him run away from the goblins without giving him much of an explanation.”
“I agree with the God of War and the God of Magic, although I didn’t know it, but it was funny when he escaped from goblins even though he had a barrier that repelled even dragons, so it’s okay. But it’s not like we should apologize to him, is it? Because if we hadn’t complained, the otherworlder might have spent the rest of his life hunting horned rabbits, right? That’s why the Creator God called him here to talk to him, isn’t it? And now he wants us to apologize to him?”
“Sigh, I understand what you guys are trying to say. I would like to agree with you, but the Creator God can be troublesome when he gets upset. Can you please apologize somehow?”
“I understand how hard it is for the God of Light, but if we apologize, the Creator God will get carried away. I can’t apologize too carelessly when I think of the look on his face when the otherworlder got a luxury cruise ship from there.”
“Well, I’m sure that if Wataru-san gets a luxury liner and does even better, he’ll be bragging to you all about it.”
“So, I’m sorry, God of Light, but tell the Creator God that he should be the one to prostrate himself before us.”
“I’m not a messenger, but it can’t be helped.”
……………
“Eh? Why am I the one who has to prostrate myself? You told them about my success, didn’t you?”
“Yes, they said so….. and by the way, I agree with them.”
“Even if they didn’t tell me, I would have called Wataru-kun up and talked to him, but they just made a fuss about it.”
“It’s not possible to prove that now, and above all, if you had given him the skills that you did not need to call him, there would not have been a problem. By calling him up and talking to him after they told you, you’re admitting their side of the story. Do you want to prostrate yourself now?”
“There’s no way I’m going to prostrate myself… Hmm… I’d like to give them the checkmate somehow.”
“Well, I guess we’ll just have to wait and see. If Wataru-san becomes successful and has a positive impact on the world, I think they will be convinced.”
“Then will they apologize while prostrating themselves?”
“I don’t think so.”
“That’s not good enough. They were speaking abusively against the Creator God. They should at least prostrate themselves before me. Otherwise, it would be meaningless.”
“Hmm, even if you say so, it will be difficult to recover from this. I can’t think of anything. Creator God will have to do it on your own. But please don’t break the rules.”
“Eh, I’m going to do my best myself? You mean you won’t help me, God of Light?”
“Yes.”
“Even if it’s an order from the Creator God?”
“I can’t think of anything, so I can’t help you even if it’s an order.”
“I see. Well, let’s hope for the best and see if Wataru-kun succeeds. Maybe after some time, I’ll be able to come up with something good, and if the God of Light comes up with something, please let me know.”
“Yes, let’s work hard until you think of something.”
“Yes.”
