.
"You have no choice," A voice almost seemed to smile into my ears, its tantalizing tone slowly fading away.
"Hey, Orion… where are you really from?" A question slipped through my trance, causing my eyes to roam all the way to the woman who was lying right next to me, her head turned entirely at me.
"Do you want me to be completely honest? I'll even be honest as to who and what I am since I feel things are about to change around here…. I mean, you'll most likely find out eventually…."
"Sure, if you want."
I paused for a moment, thinking about details I should change, but in the end, I caved and told her the truth. I felt like I could trust her.
"Are you aware that demons exist in tandem with the gods? Think of them as the antithesis of the gods. They exist to counterbalance their good and even their evil."
"So what you're saying is that you're a demon. Correct?"
"Yeah, something like that. I was originally a human and was kind of forced to become a demon because I was too weak."
"That's cool and all, but you don't have to lie to me. I've never felt the existence of a demon before, but I have felt the existence of a god. And you feel exactly like one."
My mouth lifted into a smile before I lightly chuckled to myself. I couldn't help but laugh as the first mortal who would find out about such a thing was this woman right here…
"How did you know?"
"I have many other skills I haven't told you about… I can see the status of others whether they like it or not. And that fake status is unable to cover up your real status…."
"My original status doesn't have my demi-god status."
"What do you mean? It's right there?" The woman smirked, raising her hand toward me, displaying a status that was slightly different to mine.

…
"Huh? But that isn't mine," I replied, the woman not even trying to believe me for a second of her time.
"I've had this skill for years, you think it just doesn't work now?"
I checked the skill section of my own status just to confirm I wasn't going crazy, and what do you know, my status was as normal as expected.

"Who are you really?" I frowned, staring into the woman's smiling eyes.
She looked different. Yes, she looked completely different from how I saw her before. It was almost as if she was a completely different person. The real person hiding behind the persona plastered along her face.
"You're smart. You'll figure it out once I exit this girl's body."
"... She's… an apostle. She's an apostle. She signed a contract with you, a god. Correct?" I questioned the woman, who looked completely different from before.
I rolled backward, kicking myself onto my feet by pushing against the ground with my hands, sending me flying upwards.
As I stared the woman down, who began to file her nails with a sparkling file that appeared out of thin air, I began to calculate just exactly who she was.
Out of every god. Out of every being. There was only one other god who I could think of…
"Athena."
"That's right, kid. I've come to enjoy the show. Will you fulfill my god quest, or will you let yourself die for the sake of this fake world?"
I grit my teeth as the woman's smile began to touch the ends of her ears, and as I dropped to my knees out of shock, I covered my face to hide myself from the humiliation.
"Just kidding~" I smiled back at the woman, spreading my fingers to allow the woman to see just how much of a fool she had made of herself. "Kekekeke… KAHAHAHAAHAA! YOU'RE A FUCKING FOOL! I KNEW YOU WOULD DO THIS!"
As I cackled like a mad scientist at the top of my lungs, I sprinted towards the woman, summoning my spear into my hand and swinging at her.
The goddess was in shock as she went to block it with her hand, but it seemed she had forgotten just exactly where she was and who she was possessing.
"Oh, my gods… you made it too easy for me!" I sadistically smiled, swinging straight through the woman's hand, tearing right into her flesh.
"You-"
"You're in a mortal body, you fucking dumbass."
The woman's body was quickly enveloped in a golden aura that stopped my blade, but my spear had already torn through her right hand and severed more than half of her right arm in half.
Blood poured from the woman's wound and as her frown turned upside down, my smile couldn't help but widen.
"That's a good expression… it really made everything worth it in the end."
