#2 Their circumstance: the Demon God’s circumstance
In the beginning, two Creator Gods created the world and gave birth to two new gods.
The two Creator Gods then showed the newly-born gods two continents and asked them.
-Choose the side you find to your liking. And then establish a suitable balance for this world.
Two newly-born gods might have been born on the same time, same day, but boasted two opposing personalities. As such, they unhesitantly selected different continents from each other.
-These will be the lifeforms you shall now look after.
The Creator Gods began releasing various lifeforms they had formulated throughout the land. Once everything was complete, the two gods declared thus:
-We have now accomplished everything we set out to do. The rest is now up to you.
At the end of that declaration, the two Creator Gods allowed the newly-born gods to decide their own beliefs, distributed ‘underling’ deities to serve the two, then left the world.
The two newly-born gods, named the Good God and the Demon God, took the first word in their names and renamed the continents they were in charge of as the Good Continent and the Demon Continent.
And so… time passed.
The Good Continent eventually became the human continent, and soon afterwards, a concept the two Creator Gods had never considered appeared – the concept of evil. And then…
That concept, evil, gained divinity and began threatening the world. That forced the Good God and Demon God to stop their ongoing conflict to join hands and seal the evil. But then, a certain god undid that seal on the rest of the world.
The Goddess of Benevolence and Devotion gave up on her godhood and used herself up as a sacrifice to re-seal the Evil God. Her selfless sacrifice meant that the world regained its balance, even if it was still unstable.
The remaining gods worked hard to restore and maintain the world’s balance. And the Demon God referred to as the top god among them all was currently…
“Ouch…”
…She was lying on her back, busy clutching her pounding head.
“My head hurts…”
A god’s job is to watch the world. To keep an eye out on her belief system, her temple(s), and her faithful flock. And that was why the Demon God was bitterly regretting her short-sightedness right now.
“I should’ve changed the name of my continent, too…”
The Demon God repeated these exact same words every single day – no, make them as often as three times every minute!
It bears repeating once more: a god’s job is to watch the world. The belief system, the temple(s), the believers. These three things.
And the Demon God was the object of worship for the entire continent.
In other words, the Demon God was burdened with a massive responsibility to watch every single subject on the demon continent!
“Urgh… When that damn broad said she’d change the name of her continent, I should’ve noticed the truth…”
The humans’ continent that used to be called the Good Continent, but now simply referred to as the human continent… The master of this domain, the Good God, willingly gave up on the position of the master and began co-managing the continent along with other gods.
The Demon God initially scoffed at that, but when enough time passed by for the number of humans and demon races to creep up higher and higher…! She finally learned the true meaning behind that broad’s actions.
-Oh, dear Demon God! Please bestow your curses to this seditious bastard!
-Kuwaaaahk! Oh, my Demon God, please!
-Oh, our great Demon God, why have you forsaken us…!
#3 Their circumstance: A certain small farmer’s circumstance
“Urgh!”
Plop!
I wordlessly stared at my farming tool falling to the ground. I was supposed to plough the land but had no energy and couldn’t even do a decent job of that.
“So hungry…”
Today’s breakfast was also potatoes. Lunch, more potatoes. And there’s also a very good chance that supper will be more potatoes, too.
“I’m so sick of potatoes…”
I stretched my limbs grandly, but my head was still filled with the images of potatoes. I was confident of almost never whining about my food, but for the past month or so, 95% of my meals consisted solely of potatoes.
Even someone like me would find it hard to endure in such a case!
“I pray that this year’s harvest will be…”
I looked up at the sky and began praying at the great Demon God. I prayed for an abundant harvest this year to spare me from the fate of eating nothing but potatoes next yea… Eh?
-Awake, my child.
“I’m sorry?”
Before I could finish, though, someone started talking to me first.
-The child who can hear my voice. You are to immediately head to the Demon God’s Temple to declare my will. I’m the god of all demon races, the Demon God. I command you as your noble god. Go and inform them of my will.
“Y-yes, sure…”
I inadvertently ended up swearing an oath to deliver the message. Well, that voice sounded so noble and divine, you see.
Despite my family trying to stop me, I followed the Demon God’s will and eventually reached the Demon God’s Temple. Then, I tried to deliver her noble will.
-Child, you shall now declare the following. I am none other than…!
“I am none other than!”
-…The great, noble Demon God’s apostle, the new demon king!
“The great, noble Demon God’s apos… Kkueeewek?!”
In the middle of carrying out the noble Demon God’s will, a middle-aged demon suddenly rushed up to me and attacked me. That’s when I finally understood the truth of this world.
…That gods were dead.
-H-hey, I’m not dead!
No matter how many times the sacred voice ringing in my head proclaimed to be the god’s will, the violence unleashed onto me right now was simply far scarier!
