Prologue
“T-The summoning, it’s successful…………”
The girl with a beautiful black hair tied with twin tails said.
You might not understand what she is saying.
But do not fret.
I don’t as well.
When I was in the mood for a walk, and started to think of going home because I got hungry.
Suddenly, I picked up a 10 yen coin and found a decrepit shrine.
Being decrepit made it look mysterious instead and made me feel that it has something.
That 10 yen coin was dirty too so I put it in the offertory box.
I said my prayer.
“I want to go to another world.”
And then, the shrine released a white light and I was summoned.
I looked around.
It looks like I’m inside a dim cave.
I am standing on top of a magic circle releasing a white light.
My age is the same just the same before I was summoned, around early 20’s.
The black twin tail girl who seems to be the one who summoned me said.
“My name is Laura Gine Amara! I am the Famous Great G.o.ddess of Wisdom who summoned you to this world!”
“Well, nice to meet you?”
“And you who are summoned to this world should have a Famous Great Skill1!!”
“Is that so?”
“People who are summoned, they should gain something after pa.s.sing through the gate after all!”
It looks like so.
“Show that skill to the great me!”
“A skill that I have…………”
I don’t have any clue at all.
(Status!)
Just like that, I tried to invoke but the status window would not come out.
Ahh, but, there was that huh.
“However, to show my skill, I need a raw egg.”
“Egg……?”
“Yeah, an egg.”
“If you have that, you will show it to the great me right?!”
“That’s right.”
“Wai……just wait for a while!!”
After 30 minutes.
“I’m baaack!”
Laura returned.
Her hair became messy and her beautiful face is dirty with mud.
“Kokee! Kekkekkekkekke, kokkee!!!”
Furthermore, she received kicks from the chicken that seemed to be a wild one.
“H-Hey, ow , ouch! Ouch!!
“You……you brought it from a birds next huh.”
“Wasn’t it you, who told me to get it…………ow, ow, ow ouch!! Ouch〜〜〜!!”
The self-proclaimed Great Existence-san is crying losing to the chicken.
However, using this egg, it is quite absurd.
If I take the egg carelessly, I might become the next target.
It can’t be helped.
I went outside the cave.
I lightly dug into the ground.
I found a worm.
I caught it and reached it out to the chicken.
“How about exchanging it for this?”
“Kokke……”
The chicken stopped attacking.
It went back to the ground and caught the worm with its beak.
I left the worm on the ground one by one, leading the chicken out of the cave.
The chicken who ate that much seemed satisfied, or maybe just bird-head.
It flew away spreading its wings.
I looked towards Laura.
“Higgu! Guu……”
Laura who self-proclaimed as G.o.d was weeping.
It was only an hour since we have met, but I thought.
(I want to go home……)
I want to return to my original world.
I thought of going to another world, but I did not wish for such a useless G.o.ddess2.
Judging from what I heard from her, I can’t imagine that this girl would give me some kind of incredible powers.
“Thi……this time, it’s your turn!”
However, just when I was about to leave, the Useless G.o.ddess Laura shouted.
“It’s your turn to show your greatness3 with the egg that this G.o.ddess of Wisdom fought with her life to get!”
“You bet your life on it?!!”
“The remaining G.o.ddess Points that supports my life is only 20! And because of that earlier, there is only 4 remaining! Honestly speaking, It’s just barely enough you know!!”
It’s an unknown unit, but I understood that there’s only a few left.
I mean, almost dying to get an egg, how cheap is your life.
You can even buy 10 eggs in for just 150 yen in supermarkets.
Well, whatever.
Since she brought it for me, I should show my skill.
“Bring me some kind of container.”
“U……Understood.”
Laura brought a cup.
ーーKatsun, Katsun, Katsun.
I tapped the egg three times on the cup.
When there was a decent crack madeーーpakari4 with one hand.
The egg safely entered the cup.
“That’s all, this is the special skill that I have.”
“What do you mean…………?
“I can crack eggs with one hand.”
“MYAAAAAーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー!!!”
Laura’s scream echoed.
“What in the world, are you saying?!!”
“That’s literally what I mean. As far as I know, this is the only thing that I have.”
“What about amazing magic or monstrous strengths?!!”
“If I have them, I would’ve shown it.”
“MYAAAAAーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーーー!!!”
The scream for the second time today echoed.
“Impossible! This is impossible!!” I am a Great G.o.ddess of Wisdom, but I am also a Great G.o.ddess in the Edge you know?!! I planned on recovering from a hopeless situation using the Random Familiar Summoning Ticket that I begged for, even doing a dogeza, throwing away my pride you know?!!! And that, it turned into a trash skill, what the heck is this?!! What the heck is this really?!!!”
Great G.o.ddess in the Edge? What kind of vocabulary is that?
It might be something like a genius idiot, adding a negative to a positive making it negative.
I mean, this girl is the G.o.ddess of Wisdom? I’m the one who wants to ask what the heck is going on.
“I can’t understand with that, so explain it to me from the start.”
“We G.o.ddesses, we have the role of raising and leading humans!”
“Hou.”
“And for us to live, we need G.o.d Points that would acc.u.mulate receiving sincerity or wors.h.i.+p from humans!”
“It makes you unable to skip on your work with that huh.”
“However, I skipped on my work! After I acc.u.mulated so much, I stayed aaaaaaaaall the time in my house5 not doing anything! Because of that, the G.o.d Points dropped sharply! On top of being chased away from my house, I was sent away to the remote areas, and my life is in danger!”
What a well-deserved punishment.
“That’s why I asked the G.o.ddess a.s.sembly, I said that I’ll be a proper G.o.ddess from now on! I begged for a Familiar Summoning Ticket that could summon a familiar from a different world!”
“And the result, it’s me who could only crack eggs with one hand……huh.”
“That’s exactly it……!!”
“By the way, if I help you, would there be anything good for me?”
Laura who was feeling down said cheerfully while putting a hand on her chest.
“I will be thankful!”
“Eh……?!”
Towards me who was dumbfounded, Laura continued with high spirits.
“I am a G.o.d! And I am Great!! And me saying thanks, is Grand G.o.d Thanks! Don’t you think that it is a too much of a blessing, that a normal human would receive?!!!”
“I don’t!!!”
This G.o.ddess, I want to release her to a river immediately!
I want to release her to a river and say “Don’t come any more”!!
No Catch! And Release!
“You, were you thinking of a rude thing right now?!!”
“I did not, do such thing?”
Rather than being rude, it’s just my true feelings!
“Then, it’s fine……”
Laura easily let it go.
And when we were having such an idiotic conversation, my stomach growled.
Come to think of it, I was just thinking of going home because I got hungry.
“Hey, Laura.”
“W-What?”
“You, can you bring out food or something?”
“I am a G.o.ddess you know! I am someone who would get food with tributes, not create them myself!”
“What about money……?”
“I am a G.o.ddess you know! I am someone who would get money from tributes, not create them myself!”
How uselesssssssss!!!!
Astonished, I stopped relying on Laura.
“If so, can you at least tell me where the nearest town is?”
“I don’t know!”
“Ha……?”
“After all, it was only a month since I was sent here!”
Even though Level 1 Villagers know the nearest town?!
A Great G.o.d inferior to a Level 1 Villager, what kind of existence is that?!!
I mean.
Wait a second.
This situation, isn’t it quite serious?
There’s no cheat and the supporter is a useless G.o.ddess, and it is a forest after leaving the cave.
We also don’t know where the nearest village or town.
This, isn’t this already game over?!
When I thought of that, anxiety came out of somewhere.
However, even if I worry about that, the situation would not get better by itself.
I told myself, “Hey, you. Keep yourself together yo!”, and tried to remove my anxiety.
If I remove it, I would not feel worried.
That’s perfect, bro.
“I understood that you are useless. That’s why, I’ll leave that just like that, so tell me a place where I could get food and water.”
“Do you really……need them……?”
“Isn’t that natural?!”
“Fumyuu……”
The Useless G.o.ddess Laura went outside crest-fallen.
“As far as I know, the highest probability in this area, is that Toma Fruit growing in that tree.”
Laura showed her face from the bushes and pointed at a tree on a hill.
“I see……”
I nodded, at least.
The fruit growing in the tree has a persimmon-like shape.
It looks like you can get hydrated with it too.
Butーー
(What the heck is that guy sleeping next to the tree?”)
(You can’t tell just by looking at it? It’s a Chimera Lion. It’s a monster that has the characteristics of having a lion body and head, and a snake tail.)
(I’m asking because I know!!)
I shouted with a small voice.
(I-I-It can’t be helped right! If it’s a way that you can get proper food as far as I know, it’s only that tree!)
(Even though the was chickens?!)
(Those guys, they have poison you know……)
(Is that so……)
(It’s almost the weakest as a kind of poison, but you’d normally get an upset stomach from it…………)
“You get an upset stomach with the weakest poison even though you’re a G.o.ddess……?”, I thought, but I did not say it out.
There’s nothing good expecting anything from this girl who’s inferior to a Level 1 Villager.
(But, that lion, he looks quite strong.)
(In fact, speaking of status, it’s Level 2869 and has about 35000 HP.)
(Haa?!!)
(A rookie adventurer is 20. A decent soldier is 30. A veteran would be around 80, and you’d be a master if you have 200.)
(2869 you say, isn’t that a monster?!!)
But, wait a second.
I am also someone who came from another world.
As clichés go……
(I am actually strong, or something……?)
(I think that you’re around Level 2 or 3.)
What the f.u.c.k!
(I mean, my status figures, it’s just a guess huh.)
(If my G.o.d Point acc.u.mulates, I can see it, but……)
(If those points acc.u.mulate, you would be able to create miracles or use skills huh.)
(Of course! I am Megami. In other words, G.o.d!!)
I think that both Megami and G.o.d means the same thing, but I did not pursue it.
(And so……there’s such a strong lion there, so how will we get the fruit?)
(It’s that.)
Laura pointed at its tail.
(That guy’s tail, it’s moving like *Piko……*, *Piko……*, right?)
(Yeah.)
(That guy is feeling the atmosphere with its tail just like that. It looks like it’s sleeping, but it’s actually awake.)
(When people got careless thinking that it’s sleeping, they’d get swallowed……huh.)
(That’s right.)
Laura nodded silently.
(If we aim for opportunities when it’s eating its unwary prey or if it goes away to catch some, we can get the fruit.)
(Hearing that, that sounds easy.)
(Even for it, if it kills too much of its prey, nothing would approach there anymore.)
(I see.)
(That’s why, that’s what we’re aiming for.)
Laura who spoke had a serious face.
I could not feel the traits of the Useless G.o.ddess from her just earlier.
I began to see her in a new light.
Butーー.
“Hakuchun!!!”
She f.u.c.king did a huge sneeze.
“GURUuu…………?”
The Lion-san too, slightly opened its eyes.
This Useless G.o.ddessーーーーーーーーーーーーーー!!!
(Aahhhh, ahhhh…………!!)
The Useless G.o.ddess Laura groaned with tears in her eyes.
But, however, the awakened level of Lion-san is only “slight”.
If we hold our breaths here, the chances of letting it pa.s.s are high.
Butーー
“Wha-Wha-Wha! What should we doooo〜. Kehma, Kehma, what should we doooo〜〜〜!!!”
The Useless G.o.ddess panicked.
She grabbed me by the collar and “shouted” crying.
The Lion-san completely opened its eyes.
“Just go run! I’ll buy you some time!!”
“Uu! Uuu…………!”
“Hurry up!!”
“Don’t push yourself okay〜〜〜〜〜〜!!!!”
Laura ran away with a dash.
I let out a sigh.
Although it is fast, the opponent is just a beast.
I think that its movements are straightforward.
I mean, my chances to escape only depends on that.
That’s why I concluded that it’s just a beast, and bet everything on that.
From the speed it charges, I calculated the speed that the lion would chargeーー
And jumped to the side!!
I barely dodged the lion’s first attack.
The huge shadow, pa.s.ses above me.
At the same time, I grabbed some soil.
“Take this!!!”
I threw the soil to make it flinch.
While I did that, I picked up the fallen fruits and ran in a straight line.
This lion has its territory around the tree.
And wild animals rarely leave their territories.
It is because it is full of danger outside their territories where they do not know when they would receive a surprise attack.
I’m not sure if the living things in this world are similar.
However, this lion made its territory around the tree.
It was said that it launches a surprise attack while acting asleep.
And doesn’t that only mean like this?
This lion, it is lazy.
As long as I dodge its first attack, there is enough possibility to escape!!
It is completely a gamble, but I won that bet.
I was able to escape safely and got the Toma Fruit as well.
On top of that, there is two of them.
