In the study, alone with the angel.

　I stared at my palms.
　I am examining the physical and magical changes that have come from attaining divinity.

　At the same time, I also ask the angel.

"Does gaining Godhead change anything?
You won't be old at a time of your choosing.
"You mean immortality?
"As a goddess, you don't have to be immortal, only immortal.
I see.

　I don't like to be told that I've become immortal with my appearance.
　It's good to be able to choose my own timing.

"Also, you'll be able to use some of your divine powers. I know it's too early to tell, but you'll notice a change gradually.
"Okay. Thank you.
"No.
Speaking of which, how high is the position of a deity in the other world?　Common people?
"Hmmm.

　The angel put a finger to his cheek and looked thoughtful.

"Suppose the gods are noblemen. The gods are barons.
I see, an emerging quasi-aristocracy.
That's what I mean.

　If you ask me, I'd say it's usually treated that way.

But it's such a waste.
"What?
If you had become a god then, you would have become a god of the duke class. That's about it, SSS.

　A complicated-looking angel.
　And yet, a human being, the quasi-barone-worthy now.

　I'm sorry," he said, his face clearly showing his desire to say.

I'm sorry.
"Huh?
I know it's why you had to come down to earth. I'm sorry for the extra work.
"It's fine, but ......

　Again, a complicated look on your face.
　I'm wondering what's still going on.

　In the study, the floor in front of the desk begins to glow in a circle.

　A woman emerges from the upward beam of light.

　Goddess Astaroth, the one who has been working with me since I helped her long ago.

　Astaroth stepped back still further and gently dropped to one knee in a fluid motion.

"My Lord!
"What?
The harvest has begun in many places. I thought it was time to buy this year's crop.
Is it that time of year already? How's the harvest?
"Yes, my faith in the Lord is good, no problem.

　Astaroth answers without hesitation at all.
　To someone who doesn't know the situation, the back and forth is incomprehensible.

　Astaroth, goddess of fertility, she is my favored guardian of the crops in Alexander's domain.
　Her criterion for bestowing the blessing was whether she had faith in me and not in herself.

　So she said so. She said, "It doesn't matter, because you have faith in the Lord, or in me.

Thank you.
There was one village that failed to protect the image of the Lord from bandits, and this one had a normal harvest. There were three villages that spontaneously insulted the Lord by saying that they were not worthy of the Lord's image, and we have declared this one a poor harvest.
"You want to go there?
"No one who insults the Lord will be overlooked.

　Astaroth declared flatly. He's not smiling at all.
　Well, I'm pretty clear on the criteria, and I'll probably be a little bit of a bad guy, so it doesn't matter.

　And so I was receiving reports from Astaroth as usual.
　Then I saw the astonished figure of the angel still here, who is usually absent.

"What's the matter?
"I've heard about it, but it's shocking to see it in person.
"What?
Astaroth, you are on the level of a human being, right?　It's ......

　The angel looked at me and Astaroth in turn.
　I see, you are surprised that the duke is not kidding about the quasi-baron.

I'm sorry, it's a little too exciting, I'm going to have to leave because it's making me lightheaded. ......
Are you okay?
"Don't worry, this scene is just too exciting.

　The angel says, I nod with a bitter smile.

　Then the angel raises his hands to the sky--but.

"Huh?
What's going on?
"The gate does not open ...... Oh no?　Is your time up already?


"A gate to the other side of the world?
"Yeah, it should still be okay in time. ...... What to do

　Can't leave without opening the gates?
　I touched the philosopher's sword and listened.

　Then the sword taught me the knowledge of how to open the gates of the godhead.
　Remembering this, I stand up with the sword in my hand.

"Ha!

　Like an arc, the wise man's sword is drawn out.
　Then a gaping space above the angel's head - a gate - appeared.

"Huh?
This is the right thing to do, right?　The gate back to the other side.
"Uh, yeah ...... yeah!
What's going on?

　When I asked the angel, who was surprised in a different way from before .

"I've never seen someone use the power of God so quickly. ......
"You said it would be available after a while.
I've been there, but it usually takes years. ......
"No, it's ......

　Further marvel at the angel.
　I laughed more bitterly than you.
　So it was a "while" for the angel's sense of time.
