Chapter 497 – Sloppy Goddess

“Didn’t I tell you that she was a weak and foolish girl?”

It was not a voice criticizing or criticizing the goddess for her incompetence.

The strangely humorous tone was closer to the feeling of teasing her junior or younger sibling.

‘There must be a reason why I lent my place to the power to manifest.’

Wouldn’t it mean that the god of war at least doesn’t have a bad view of the goddess?

Roman guessed that and rolled his eyes.

“I thought everything would be fine since the path that was taking so much effort was successfully sealed. But it looks like that wasn’t the case.”

At the sound of Roman’s voice, the goddess repeatedly moved her lips.

Musin walked up to the goddess, plucked one of her feathers, played with it, and made a voice.

“Roman. Do you know the birth of each creator, including this female child?”

“I don’t know?”

I confidently answer immediately that I don’t know. There was no hesitation for Roman.

Musin laughed as if he was dumbfounded by her attitude and let her feather fly in her mind.

“A person who has risen from humble origins to become a transcendent person is free from tasks. However, those who were gods from the moment they opened their eyes have too many inconveniences and limitations to be considered lucky.”

The former is a warrior and Roman, and the latter is a goddess.

“Roman. For the Creator, the existence of the world is a task.”

“That’s right, I guess.”

You understand this right away. Musin immediately continued his explanation to the next step.

“When I opened my eyes, I realized that the Creator was not that attractive or beautiful to me.”

“Hmm…”

“Picture it. The place you were born in is a pitch-black dimension where there is nothing. The only thing that exists in your head is the mission to create a world there and rule it. Your head is full of given information, but there is no set framework for how to manage it, and there is no experience to operate it. It’s not enough to even have a real sense of it.”

Roman talks about the frustrating state of having a head full of theories. Now I can even empathize properly.

“Why is it happening that way?”

“I don’t know about this. But I’ve been building up a hypothesis for a long time.”

“Hypothesis…”

Even the goddess has never heard of this.

It was a topic I had never even dared to be curious about, so my head moved automatically.

“Because transcendent knowledge and inexperience are combined, the result is always something unknown. I think the goal is to create a completely different form without overlapping all dimensions.”

“If you keep asking questions, there will be no end.”

“You know very well. It’s just a hypothesis to begin with, so the question and answer doesn’t have much meaning.”

“···.”

Rather than just dismissing it as a hypothesis, it is a valuable answer based on vast experience of living many lives and understanding various dimensions.

“Anyway, the story to come is about this immature girl trying her best to make an accident. Just know that she had no malicious intent.”

“It looks like the goddess liked it?”

“Hehe, she’s a cute girl, unlike any other bastard.”

As if telling me to open my mouth that is now closed. The god of war stabbed the goddess in the side with the sheath of his sword.

“Tsk…!”

The conversation we’ve had so far is prior knowledge and the basis for the goddess to be able to talk about her situation comfortably.

Roman skimmed through Gods and Goddesses with anticipation, thinking that now he would finally get to the main point.

One side covers the eyes and the other side covers the area under the eyes.

In many ways, you never get tired of looking at it.

‘Are you two finished talking about this topic?’

I guess I probably shared enough. It was like that in the flow.

Wasn’t it during that conversation that Roman was caught unawares by the Goddess and the Goddess?

After a few seconds.

The goddess opened her closed lips and let out a heavy sigh.

“Haa…”

“Goddess. Please tell me. I will listen.”

I slowly raise my head at Roman’s words. Roman is captured in eyes like the sea.

“In the beginning… When I was refining and creating the world, there was a partnership with Pandemonium.”

“!”

Roman was already intrigued by the unexpected and unexpected story.

The goddess continued her story on her own without any need for prompting.

“Creation takes a huge amount of energy and time, and the same goes for maintaining it. So, as I was looking for a more efficient way, the god who created Pandemonium approached me first.”

“Hoo…”

It is said that unlike herself, who was a woman from the moment she opened her eyes, the owner of Pandemonium is a god who has been given a male appearance.

Moreover, unlike the goddess who was just trying to create a dimension, the dimension she was ruling was unique in its completeness and scale.

“He and I did not fit in the direction of leading the world at all, but there was a unique area where we could build a cooperative relationship.”

“What part is it?”

“···Extracting the uncleanness from the fallen and discolored soul.”

A story that somehow gives you a clue before you even hear the whole story.

Rather than asking her questions, Roman listened to her voice.

“I pride myself on putting in the utmost effort every time, but to an inexperienced person like me, a flawless creation is a miracle of catching the light that briefly shines between the accumulation of time… If a person with an evil spirit is unintentionally created, their soul must be collected. I used up too much energy every time I purified myself.”

“The god of Pandemonium appeared at the right time.”

The goddess gave a small nod in the affirmative with her stern face.

The Creator, who rules over a dark world where blood and corpses flow like a river, spoke to the goddess.

I will take over her process on her own level, separating the negativity from her corrupted soul, without the need for her to suffer in vain.

In Pandemonium, the evil person’s unclean part is converted into the power of the world, so a contract is made to extract that part and return the cleansed soul.

In the eyes of a goddess who was anxious about her power showing signs of decline and sought extreme efficiency, it was a plausible story about both sides being good.

“···By making that promise, a small hole was created between the current dimension and Pandemonium for the soul to pass through. It was because I was too foolish.”

Although we made a promise to the god in question by being careful not to take direct damage, Pandemonium is full of transcendental people like the Great Devil.

As if he had been waiting, he began to corrupt the goddess’ creatures by leaking mana and voices through narrow gaps. By pouring in weak and small demons that could pass through the gap, black magicians were born and trained.

As time passed, chaos on the continent that the goddess could not imagine increased exponentially.

“As a creator, it must have grown in strength by preying on immature and delicate children.”

According to what Musin said, even if the scale is large, it is too big of a piece of land.

Roman decided not to think about it that far. What’s important now is the conclusion.

“In conclusion, I, as a third party, closed the gap. Isn’t it okay now?”

“That’s…”

Anyway, I understood that the goddess tried to do well, but her motivation hit her in the back.

Next, we learned the story of how the dimensions were connected, but the story started at the origin. Roman still hasn’t heard the most important answer.

“Roman. It’s not that simple.”

“?”

I wonder if her mouth is itching as she just watches. She inserted her voice again through the gap.

“Even if the hole is closed, unclean things remain in the world. Even if the door is closed, it’s like a bug hiding and laying its eggs somewhere.”

“It looks like a lot of souls needing purification are pouring in.”

The creator god of Pandemonium continued to keep his promise.

It is a bond and a promise to each other to bleach the soul and return it to a pure white state. In that respect, the goddess was benefiting a little.

However, how many profane souls have increased through the gaps that have been forcibly connected so far?

Now that the connection with Pandemonium has been lost, this is the goddess’s job.

The power of the goddess, which was not enough even if accumulated, was leaking as she tried to wipe away the increased discolored soul.

“I wanted to make the world as clean and peaceful as possible…!”

The goddess must have been so emotional that for the first time, she spoke in front of Roman in a moist voice.

‘I had no experience but only knowledge, so I was fooled by the fact that I saw the efficiency of mutual aid and thought it was plausible.’

Listening to the words of her goddess, it seems that the current continent is a world that has deviated greatly from the picture she wanted.

Certainly, the current continent is beautiful, but at the same time it is quite cruel, but it is not a world that can be called a living hell.

But it is not a place that everyone would call paradise.

‘I roughly understood the situation…’

Roman raised his head and naturally saw the pure white ceiling. She paused for a moment, chewing her lower lip.

Mushin tapped her handle. Talk. Talk. There was only the sound of tapping.

After a while, Roman’s head came down and made eye contact with the goddess again.

“Goddess.”

“Speak…”

What will Roman say? The goddess’s shoulders trembled at the low voice.

The goddess realizes that the trouble Roman has gone through is ultimately the problem and opportunity that she was deceived. She couldn’t do anything, so it was only right that Roman took responsibility for her.

Even though she curses and slaps her here, she asks why she was fooled by such a stupid promise.

She was a goddess, and she was prepared to accept it graciously.

“The person who committed the fraud is the one who will kill it. I don’t think the person who committed the fraud is bad.”

“···?”

“Didn’t you always work hard to sustain humans and maintain a vibrant world during the invasion of Pandemonium? I can’t imagine how hard the goddess must have suffered, but I thank you for your hard work.”

“!”

“To give you a little consolation… I can’t give you any guarantees, but if I get the chance, I’ll cut off that swindler’s head. Furthermore, I have a feeling we’ll run into him someday.”

The goddess opened her eyes wide and closed her mouth.

Roman really likes this world. And I know.

She wonders what this world would have been like if the Goddess had stopped her efforts to escape, grown weary, and let go of her hand even for a moment. Aside from the fact that she was tricked, she did her best to keep an eye on her afterward.

“This colt. Was she a fox in her past life? She beats her tail whenever she gets the chance.”

“Why do you have a temper when you stay still?”

Musin came over and stabbed Roman with the sheath of his sword and clicked her tongue.

Anyway, what we need now is time or energy.

As long as no problems arise from the gap that Roman blocked, the leakage of power will eventually subside.

As she concluded her conversation, she asked Roman the goddess with a bright smile.

“Hey, have you decided what you want?”

“That’s…”

She thought about it during the conversation, but nothing came to mind.

It’s a precious opportunity for her to ask a favor from the goddess, but isn’t it strange that she receives something like an elixir to give to her lover?

“It’s difficult. If I exhaust my strength and fall into sleep, I don’t know when I will open my eyes…”

Musin rested his elbow on the shoulder of the troubled goddess, thinking it might be hundreds of years later.

“Don’t worry so much, just get some rest. There’s no problem if you fall asleep.”

“Yes?”

“Are you going to wake me up when I tell you?”

In response to Roman’s question, Musin shook her head. She had no intention of going that far on her own.

“Roman has the power to wake up the girl, so there is no need for her to step forward. We will handle it properly soon, so just give permission for the mental image to enter.”

“Does this child already have that kind of power?”

A feeling of surprise flashed in the goddess’s eyes.

“Me? I have that kind of power?”

A story that even the subject himself does not know.

A questionable voice came out of Roman’s mouth as none of her knowledge was clear.

“Why does a guy who regularly restores new weapons pretend not to know?”

“Oh?”

A piece of the puzzle falls into place in her head.

Containing vital energy in the semen released from sexual intercourse. Roman is forced to recognize that this is something special even among transcendents.

‘For sure.’

The answer could be. But the method is a bit different.

Isn’t that what you’re saying is to inject my energy into the sleeping goddess?

“No matter what…”

The goddess who was listening cautiously raised her voice. She looks quite embarrassed.

“That’s right. Anyway, this is a bit…”

Roman nods and agrees with his troubled reaction.

The goddess cast her gaze at Roman and muttered as if she had no shame.

“How can you carelessly accept something so precious?”

“?”

The goddess’ reaction was completely different from what Roman was worried about.
