    Ch.BONUSGeek Outcast Necromancer (Complete)

    Serejia, who was once the goddess of planet Thebe, eventually became the god of Earth.

    “Honestly, everything is so well-organized that there’s nothing for me to fix. I’m feeling somewhat inadequate due to the difference in ability…”

    And because of that, I had to invest a lot of effort in the aftermath management as the administrator of planet Thebe.

    “There’s absolutely nothing properly set up here.”

    “That’s because you buried all the competent coordinators, and then the place was completely occupied. Now do you understand my struggles?”

    “I’m already irritated, so keep quiet before you get hit.”

    But I didn’t feel that bad about it. After all, this Thebe was like a second home where I had spent a long time.

    And without those hundred-plus years, I probably wouldn’t have been able to do anything against Mors.

    In that sense, I could say I was sufficiently indebted to this place.

    “Seoha is waiting for you. When are you planning to come over?”

    “I’ll see later. It’s difficult to be away for too long because of the time difference.”

    Because we had created a perfect dimensional passage in cooperation with Serejia, I could now travel between both sides whenever I wanted.

    Watching the real-time recovery process of Earth and Thebe was quite an unfamiliar sensation.

    “…It feels peaceful somehow.”

    “Indeed it does.”

    Monsters and dungeons had disappeared, and hunters no longer needed their powers.

    However, Serejia surprisingly didn’t take back the hunters’ powers.

    When I asked her why out of curiosity, she answered like this:

    “It’s not that—I already tried, but it didn’t work.”

    “……”

    Although she had officially received Shin Doyun’s authority and been reborn as a true deity, it seemed she still had a long way to go.

    “Well, it doesn’t really matter.”

    The hunters’ situation might become difficult, but that’s a problem for the higher-ups on Earth to solve.

    At least it wasn’t something I needed to worry about.

    “What are your plans after the restoration is complete?”

    “Well, I’m thinking of creating a coordinator like you and then going back there.”

    Since I also had Rama as a servant, it would be sufficient to entrust the aftermath to her.

    “I can always come back if problems arise anyway.”

    “That’s true.”

    Time passed steadily, and eventually the aftermath of the seemingly endless dungeon crisis came to an end.

    And I had once again become a perfect homebody, disconnected from the world.

    “…No, why? Honestly, it’s about time I took a break.”

    I blurted out an excuse to Rama, who was staring at me blankly after coming through the passage.

    It all started with processing too much work.

    After finishing an already grueling battle followed by such hard labor, a kind of burnout hit me the moment everything was completed.

    What followed was simple. Humans never forget the sweetness of laziness once they’ve tasted it.

    I was no longer human but a god, yet the principle remained the same.

    “It seems you’ve become inhuman in a different sense…”

    Looking at me wrapped tightly in blankets with the air conditioner running at maximum while watching streams, Rama couldn’t hide her occasional looks of contempt.

    Then she sighed and made a call to someone.

    Click.

    “The king has turned the house into the North Pole again.”

    “…You’re being insubordinate right now.”

    “Yes. I’ll hand over the phone.”

    I moved the phone to my ear while curling up defensively under the blanket.

    And soon, Seoha’s nagging came through.

    “…Ah, fine, I’ll turn it off now.”

    Looking at the clock with a gloomy feeling, I saw it was already seven in the evening.

    I ordered chicken with a familiar gesture and smiled at the thought that came to mind.

    ‘Well, nothing much has changed.’

    I regained my power and obtained godhood to win the war, but in the end, I remained the same.

    I was happiest playing games while slacking off at home, and I didn’t want to think about complicated matters.

    “…Are you not upset?”

    “Stop treating me like a child.”

    The thought that this was truly, truly human-like didn’t make me feel bad at all.

    So I got up, throwing off the blanket, turned off the air conditioner in the living room, and said,

    “Oh, but I only ordered one portion of chicken.”

    “……”

    And so, another day passed.

    Earth was peaceful, and dungeons opening or monsters invading had now become tales of the past.

    And there, I was still spending carefree days.

    [Glory to Woodgard!]

    “Why did you use your ultimate there? Are you out of your mind?”

    Maybe someday I’ll find something I want to do, or perhaps another crisis will come. But that’s something to think about when the time comes.

    “So what? If you’re confident, try a 1v1 with me. I’d win all hundred matches.”

    For now, I just inexplicably loved these days.

    [You have been defeated.]

    “…Curse of silence.”

    I jumped straight onto the bed and kept muttering complaints while cooling my heated head.

    Then suddenly remembering something I had forgotten, I quietly recalled the face of someone who was no longer here.

    “Ah, I didn’t send the lantern.”

    But it should be fine. If there was a way to perceive it, this peaceful scene would surely have been conveyed.

    With such idle thoughts in mind, I closed my eyes to the overwhelming comfort and warmth.

    I might have seen someone in my dream, but I don’t really remember.

    ‘……’

    The morning that followed was, as always, an unchanged scene.

    And so, another new day began again.
