Even though the Evil God had fallen, the mutants that appeared around the world did not disappear. They continued to exist in this world even after the grace of the evil gods disappeared and they were unable to emit divine energy, and their body color changed to a dull color, or 'nibi-iro'.
　The mutants were freed from the control of Yura and the evil gods, but the command to 'attack people' seemed to remain imprinted, and they did not stop fighting.
　However, a mutant species that had lost its regeneration ability and the ability to harden its body was no different than a mere stone golem. The remaining mutants around the world were hunted one by one by knights and adventurers from various countries.
　We, too, flew around the world, killing the mutants that appeared in various places. At the end of it all, though, it was no longer just work. Extermination work, I guess.
　In some countries the mutants appeared in many places, in others they did not appear at all. In some countries the damage was minimal, in others, multiple villages were destroyed.
　The world didn't die, but that doesn't mean there was no damage. It would be hubris if I could save everything, but I still couldn't help but think so.
　After all, it was only two days later that we were able to eradicate the foreign species of mutants from this world.
　Everything was over, Brunhild sent out an end-of-life declaration to the nations, and the world was at peace for the time being.
　After that, I went back to the castle and slept like mud. I didn't even dream anymore.

''Hmm...?''

　It was still dark when I woke up out of bed. When I checked the time on my phone, it was before 5am.
　The "Mochizuki Fuyao" app that was delivered has already been discontinued. It was quite useful this time, but I heard that Babylon's magic tank was almost gone. I guess everyone used it without reservation. Well, that's why it ended so quickly.

''Hmmm........''

　I stretched out wide on the bed to relieve myself, then threw on my coat and walked out onto the empty balcony.
　The morning sun was just beginning to rise and the sky was just beginning to turn white.
　I sat down at the round table where it was placed and took out a pot of coffee and a mug from [Storage].
　I drink the coffee that was poured out while the steam was rising. Yes, it's delicious.

"Can I have one of those?
Okay.

　I held out a new mug to the World God who suddenly appeared in front of me and poured the coffee into it. 'Sugar and milk to your liking,' he said, placing a small bottle of each on the table.

'I'm no longer surprised when he shows up out of nowhere.
'I kind of understand it now. Is this another awakening change?
It was me you were dealing with. You are my family, and we share the same divine nature. That's why. Maybe you don't know what a god of love is.

　I thought I wouldn't be surprised by the appearance of Hanakoi and her sisters anymore, but I was naive.

I guess we should congratulate them first. I defeated the evil god that appeared on earth. As promised, you are now recognized by me, the World God, as one of the gods. Although your status is that of a senior god, in terms of position, you are above the subordinate gods, the lowest of the lower gods.
You're starting at the bottom of the pile.
You can't be a favorite. You can't be biased by favoritism just because you are part of the family. It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're doing. It's not a good idea.
It's a distant memory...
What? After a couple of thousand years, it's only a matter of time.

　Oh, it's called "Janay's Law". I saw it on TV a long time ago. It's the one where a day feels long when you are a child, but a year feels like a flash when you are an adult.
　A year for a 50-year-old person is 1/50th of a life. For a five-year-old person, it is equivalent to one-fifth of his life. In other words, in the sense of a fifty-year-old person, ten years is equivalent to a year for a five-year-old.
　I guess it means that if you don't have a lot of experience, everything is a first time for you, and it feels like a long time. And it means that when you have experience and get used to it, it feels faster. It's funny though that the unit is a thousand years, two thousand years.

'What should I do for now?'
Well, I guess so. Well, for the first 100 or 200 years, you can live on earth as a normal human being. Then, when the time is right, you can retreat to the divine world, go back and forth between the earthly realms, and manage this world.
What do you want me to do to manage it?

　I don't know if I have any control over the world, even in this little country.

Basically, I don't think you have to do anything. But if you feel that this world is dying, or that it's going in the wrong direction, you'd better do something about it.
What do you mean?
They could give a holy sword to someone on earth to make them a hero who will save the world, or give an oracle to a pious priest, well, there are many things. Direct interference is against the rules. However, there is also a secret technique of the god himself descending to earth, which he manages in human form.

　Basically, it's great that you don't have to do anything, but if possible, I'd prefer to live in a world where no brave men appear.

I'm not sure if it's a good idea. I'm going to have to take care of this world for now, Fuyao-kun. I've been talking about it before, but I want to make this world a sanctuary for the gods. Between you and me, we've been inundated with applicants. They all want to grow their wings on earth without any restraint.
'It's okay, right?　I don't want you to come over here and riot.
We'll make the selection. You'll be humanized, and you'll get off, so the world won't be destroyed. It's just that I want to enjoy my life as a normal... well, maybe not normal, but a normal human being. You know, like the simulated experiences you get from video games in your old world.

　Oh......... Well, I see what you're saying: become a hero in an RPG, become an irresistible guy in a gyaru game, become a great detective in an adventure game...the point is that you want to experience a different you. It's a secular idea for a god, though.
　I wonder if it's that. Is it because the Hanakoi Karen sisters are enjoying themselves on earth, that I'm envious of them?

''The God of Love and the God of Swords will continue to support and guide you, just like the agricultural gods. You'll feel more comfortable that way too, won't you?
I have a feeling you're being biased, though. That's not what you said earlier...
Ho-ho-ho, it's the flower of the unspoken. I haven't had a family member in hundreds of millions of years. It's like a father's heart for his children or a grandfather's heart for his grandchildren.

　I'm very grateful for that. But why do I feel that the gods who support us are likely to cause various problems?

Well, we'll just have to catch up. One last thing I want you to remember. Every world comes to an end eventually. Every world has to come to an end eventually. Of course, the world you were in before will also end. What is important is the way the world is. I hope that when this world comes to an end, you will be able to tell the other gods that it was a wonderful world. Don't let the God of Destruction come out of your home.
I don't want it to end that way...
I know you won't let that happen. See you soon.

　Like a fog disappearing, the World God's figure disappeared. The sun had already risen, and the dazzling morning sun was lighting up the world.
　An administrator of the world..... It still doesn't ring a bell. Well, it seems that you can spend a hundred and two hundred years as normal, so I'll just do the king's business for now.
　First of all..........


　　　　　　　　　　◇ ◇ ◇ ◇.


'Would it be better this way after all........ What about Lou-san?
Hmmm..... I, myself, prefer more frills, but I want to bring out the color of Regulus. I want to bring out Regulus's color, too.
"This is gaudy, that it is..... But this is better, isn't it?
'This one seems to be easier to move, Yae. We have something similar in Restia.
Too many. I can't decide if there are so many of them. I'll just go with...
Sakura-chan.........you'll only live once in your life, so get it right. You'll regret it later, okay?
Paula?　You're not going to wear it, okay?
'Oh, God. That's hard.

　Currently, my fiancé and I were having a hard time picking up and comparing pictures of the various wedding dresses that had been strewn across the table.
　This is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. I know that, but I'm a little dumbfounded that they are bothering me that much. But I'm not stupid enough to say that.

I'll just go with my gut feeling. There's no point in worrying about it.

　Sue said straight away beside me as I was sitting on one of the sofas away from the table.
　She quickly decided and handed a picture of the design to the head maid, Lapis-san. I'd like to tell her to worry about it a little, but her boldness is just like Sue.

It's finally a marriage. I'm glad to see you're finally married. I'm so happy.

　The girl who hugged me, squeezing me, has grown the most compared to when we met. She hadn't grown much taller, but still, her feminine physical features were gradually beginning to assert themselves.
　I thought she was still a child, but now I often get a thrill out of it.
　It's a very good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for when you're in the world you're in. It's hard to call me an adult when I'm saying this, though.

''As for me, I feel bad for Duke Ortlinde for having Su as a bride so early, though.
It's all right. Father and mother are crazy about Ed now. Well, so is my brat.

　Ed. Edward Hernes Ortlinde. He is the younger brother of Sue and heir to the Duchy of Ortlinde. He's not even a year old yet. He's going to be my little brother-in-law.
　There are many people who marry Su and the others and become brother-in-law or sister-in-law, but the only ones younger than him and Yumina's brother, Prince Yamato, are the only two. I wonder if the two of them will be called 'elder brother-in-law' or something like that.
　I hope that he will eventually be the right-hand man of Prince Yamato, who will be the King of Belfast. But we've got some pretty japanesque names in there, Yamato and Ed. I guess it's just a coincidence.

When we get married, we can stay here forever. You'll be with Fuyuyo from morning to night. Aren't you happy?
'Yeah. Sue didn't get to spend as much time with me as everyone else.
I was trained as a bride at home. I have learned to cook and sew. They say there is no need for a nobleman to do this, but I wanted the children to have the food I made for them to eat on winter nights and the clothes I made for them to wear. That's why I worked so hard.

　Whenever he decides to do something, he has the strength of will to carry it through. He is a straight shooter. I'm delighted to know that she has that feeling for me as well, and I can't help but hug Sue.

"Only Sue is unfair.

　Sakura came over here with her mouth agape. Apparently she decided quickly too.

''You've already decided?''
You can't blame them for worrying. What's inside is more important than what's on the outside. More importantly, sire, so am I.

　Sakura opens her arms to me. With a wry smile, I hug her, just as Sue does.
　This is the part of her that wants to be pampered like this. I'm sure she will deny it, but I can't help but feel that her desire to be pampered by her father is at the root of her desire.
　Sakura was born and raised without knowing her father. That's why she might have a kind of admiration for her father.
　To tell you the truth, I can't help but think that you should direct that towards your own father. I don't feel sorry for His Majesty the Demon King.
　He's actually a father figure, but that favor doesn't turn towards his father, is that what you call a father figure?
　Well, I know that's not the only thing Sakura feels for me.

Sakura is a spoiled child.
"There's nothing wrong with taking advantage of an older master. It's right.

　Sakura returns that to Sue with a straight face. All of them are younger than me except Leanne, not just Sakura.
　Yae and Hilda are one year younger. Else and Linse are two down. Sakura is three down, Yumina and Lou are four down. And Sue is six years younger.
　I've decided to throw away the common sense of the other world, but is it really a good idea for an eighteen-year-old man to get a twelve-year-old wife.......
　Well, a year is a long time in this world, so if you calculate it by the original world's calendar, Suu would be sixteen years old... but he doesn't look like a sixteen by any means. It's hard to determine if it's because they grow slowly or because they became my family.
　I've heard that these girls become immortalized at a certain age. The same as Lean, the fairy tribe. Unfortunately, the growth of the actual Lean is still the same as it was in the past.
　I wonder if in a few years' time, Leanne will be the youngest person in the world just by looking at her.

'So when is the wedding scheduled?'
The world is in turmoil right now. I'm thinking about six months from now. There's a lot of work to be done.

　He replied to Sakura, who was holding him in her arms.
　I'm going to make some preparations for the wedding in that context. However, I'm wondering what's going on in Isengard.
　It has completely ceased to function as a country and has become as devastated as Euron.
　The spirits that fled due to the divine and demonic poisoning are now attracted to the giant holy tree and are slowly returning. Eventually, it will probably become a land where there are more spirits than the original.
　The question is who will rule that land....
　Nothing has happened yet, but we can't afford to have a bunch of people claiming that they are the representatives of this country, just like Euron did. In that respect, the Mage King is lucky to have no children.
　I don't think anything strange will happen as long as the surrounding three major powers, the Raze-wu Kingdom, the Strain Kingdom, and the Galdio Empire, all keep their eyes on each other.

''Mm. You're thinking of complicating things again, aren't you?　Fuyu Yoru has worked hard enough, so let's leave the rest of the world alone and bother with the warriors.
I agree with Sue about that. More stance.

　They called out "kamee, kamee" and "kamee" again and again, and pressed on me. I was both happy and pained.
　It's true that we didn't have much time to spend together because we were busy with various things, but....
　Now that the problem of the evil god is settled, I want to do the same with everyone else, but there are so many things piling up.......

Well, at least for today.

　I can't go somewhere to play now, so I take out my phone and project the screen in the air.

'A movie from the other side of the world or something?　Winter night?
It's going to be a while yet. Do you want to see something?
'I don't want to be scared. I want it to be fun.

　Sakura assures me so. I have bittersweet memories of the last time I made them watch a horror movie and they all freaked out. It's kind of an odd feeling to live in a world where there are real zombies and wraiths and stuff like that to be scared of.

'Want something easy to understand?'

　This phone, which is also a divine instrument of God's specifications, can be converted into the language of this world if it's dubbed. The language may not be a problem, but if it's so far removed from the norm in the original world, the story could be completely incomprehensible. If you make them watch a movie about a money game on Wall Street, they will hardly understand it. They would understand it better than I do.
　If it's a fun one, it would be a comedy. And if it's a simple story that's funny.......yeah, I'll take it.
　It's the first ever 'sheepdog' movie with a little pig as the main character. It's heartwarming and easy to understand, and yet it's a good story.

'Oh, here we go.'
"Fun.

　Sandwiched between Sue and the cherry blossoms, I also took it easy for the first time in a while. It's nice, this kind of thing.
　Eventually, everyone noticed us and wanted to see it too, so we had to watch it again from the beginning, which was a charm.
