“…How much faith is needed to achieve the resurrection of the body?”

Akasha’s question felt like a mosquito crawling into it. I was obviously asking because I didn’t know, but it seemed like I already knew the answer.

Of course I know. There is no answer. No matter how much faith you bring, it is impossible to revive an already dead body.

In the past, I would have wondered if there was a possible way, but now I know for sure that it is impossible. This is because I personally experienced causality.

Can faith give life again to an already dead body? There was no way it could tolerate something like that. Compared to this, Akasha’s wish to bring back the soul of a long-dead unrequited love and bind it to her seems realistic.

Of course, I don’t know if causality would allow that either.

“…….”

“…….”

When Stella and I fell silent at the same time, Akasha suddenly started laughing as if she had lost her mind.

” … Kuk … What is this vain?

“No. Strictly speaking, he’s not dead yet. As long as the faith you stole remains, you will be able to maintain your existence here.”

Stella, who has no trace of emotion, bothers to correct Akasha’s words. Or maybe they’re just trying to make fun of them since they don’t have any more means of teasing them.

“Damn it… Are you saying that because you know I can no longer gain faith from the outside?”

“Yes.”

As expected, teasing was right. Simply put, Akasha’s condition is no different from that of a ‘forgotten god’. He has already said goodbye to his body, and all that remains is his very existence, which he holds on to with faith, but as he said, if he loses faith, he will die. It was the same as the process by which the gods met death.

It’s like being terminally ill, but that doesn’t mean you’ll die any time soon. The remaining faith of Akasha was greater than expected, and surprisingly, not much faith was consumed to maintain existence.

If you leave it alone, it will easily live for 3,000 years. Of course, this is the time standard here, so if you consider it in the summer, it would be an astronomical time.

Of course, time is more important than how long it was spent and how valuable it was, so it would be quite a severe punishment for Akasha, who has lived her entire life to study, to spend 3,000 years meaninglessly in this empty space.

“That’s it. Maybe it’s a very good ending?”

“…Stop trying to win mentally. Aren’t you also unable to escape from this place? Hehe… You must have more regrets that you left behind in the underworld than I do. And faith will continue to flow in. In some ways, isn’t that what happened to you the biggest problem?”

This bastard is poking at the inconvenient truth that was kept hidden.

Wow!

“Kwaaak! What are you doing all of a sudden!”

“Because you are saying the right thing.

Anyway, Akasha’s words were also not wrong. If I were to live here as a god like this, I would be the most bitter. However, unlike Akasha, I still had room to experiment with things.

The most important thing is to return the faith you received from Prinia. This could be for the simple reason that the law of causality does not allow me to go down to the underworld with faith beyond my temporary limit.

Unlike Akasha, who took control of the ‘warrior’, the hero of humanity, in the ‘Underworld’ with ‘religion stolen from others’, I just scolded the guy who did such a bad thing.

In addition, if there was an accident in the lower world, Wayne was treated completely. However, if this had become a problem, he would have been kicked out on the spot, and Wayne’s injury was also Akasha’s fault, so there is no way he would be held accountable for this.

When Prinia arrived, I immediately welcomed her.

“Oh! Prinia! Good timing!”

“What is this situation? I thought it was either that they were still fighting or that Akasha had disappeared… but the three of them were sitting and chatting together.”

I immediately explained the whole story to Prinia. Akasha no longer has the means to defeat the three of us. Stella, who went to the underworld, destroyed Akasha’s body and became terminally ill.

And for some reason, I couldn’t go down to the underworld either.

Prinia, who heard the whole story, was like me and first doubted the amount of faith. I immediately returned my faith to Prinia, and Akasha’s eyes widened when she saw that.

“It was true that you received faith from Prinia. I can’t believe it even when I see it in person. How on earth is it possible to transmit faith so easily?”

There’s nothing I can’t explain now, but since it was a condition necessary for delivery, I couldn’t open my mouth easily.

Of course, that’s just what I said, and Stella gave the answer very indifferently.

“Sex.”

“…What?”

“Sex. Having sex between gods makes it possible to transmit faith. The more you do it, the easier it becomes to convey.”

“What is that….”

Akasha looks in disbelief. I guess so. But even if I tried to prove it, I couldn’t. All the other gods had already been killed by Akasha, so the only remaining gods were the ones here.

Of course, I had no intention of having sex just because there was another goddess. No matter what, I don’t want to have an affair for no reason. Even thinking about Arjen, who is still waiting for me.

“Yes, it seems like everything has passed. How about it?”

Upon Prinia’s confirmation, I immediately attempted to return to the lower world. However, it still didn’t work properly as if something was blocking it.

“I’m going crazy. I feel it more clearly than before, but I still don’t have it. Maybe there is another reason…”

It’s getting frustrating at this point. When you ask the other person what they want and hear the answer, you want to do it, but that person is not a real person, but rather a type of concept.

“Let’s think about it slowly. Surprisingly, the answer may be simple.”

I perked up my ears at Prinia’s words. It seems like he has a clever idea.

“Being disturbed by causality means that you have distorted causality in some way. This is something that could not have happened by chance. And depending on how big the impact is when the incident occurs, the disruption of causality becomes more severe.”

I understood it in my head. It’s just that I don’t know why I made such a serious mistake. Feeling frustrated, I hit Akasha one more time.

“Did you hear that, Akasha? Even if you kill all of us here and gather all the faith in this dimension, there seems to be no way to escape from this space.”

“Don’t start a pointless fight. I will somehow find a way.”

“What is the method… Hey, are these one or two things you did? How can what happened in the lower world be resolved by giving in 100 times? The reason they tried to wipe out the underworld by collaborating with the demons was because Arjen was actually in the process of resolving the payment. But what about here?”

I stretched out my arms and shouted as if to show everyone around me.

“Although this place was originally such a vast and quiet place, it was never this desolate. Until some great lover goes crazy and kills all the gods except us!”

Akasha kept her mouth shut, as if she had nothing to say. In fact, even if there were ten mouths, there would be nothing to say. There shouldn’t be any. Damn you, no you’re a bitch now.

“I don’t know, but if you want to get out of here, you have to return all the gods you killed to their original state, right? Is that even possible? There’s no way you can get out, you’re destined to rot here for the rest of your life.”

As she said that, she got angry and when I hit her again, Akasha suddenly counterattacked as if she couldn’t stand being hit on the head again and again.

“Kkeuk! okay! You are right. But have you forgotten how I got here? It’s all thanks to you raising good children.”

“This bastard is now even trying to mess with the strict bastard? I’m really killing you!?”

“If you want to kill me, try killing me! That doesn’t change the fact that you had a lot of credit for making this happen! So you should have taken good care of your child.”

I can’t believe I had to listen to a kidnapper like that. The moment when you feel like a string in your head is about to break and you are about to do something.

“That’s it! Eugene!”

Prinia’s voice made a loud noise, like Archimedes realizing the existence of buoyancy, and my body stopped.

“All we had to do was bring the gods back. That’s what causality wants!”

“What? So are you really saying that I am responsible for Akasha causing this mess?”

Otherwise, there is no reason for causality to grab my pants and prevent me from going to the underworld. Prinia lowered her voice and answered my angry question.

“It’s not that I think so… Because causality literally focuses on ’cause and effect’…”

“……Ha. Okay, let’s say so. If you increase your size again, you can return to the underworld? What should we do to increase God?”

Stella, who had remained calm in response to my question, asked.

“Are you asking because you don’t know? There is only one answer to increasing the number of people.”

Meaningful words. Moreover, perhaps because the person speaking was Stella, I couldn’t help but think that way. And that was the correct answer.

“Sex. Let’s have lots of babies, Eugene.”

“Now, wait a minute. Are we going to have a child if we do it by ourselves? We are gods! I don’t even have a body now!”

“What do you need to know? The gods we will give birth to are not particularly born with bodies.”

“……I’m going crazy. Is this really the right answer?”

I wanted to deny it, but I couldn’t think of any other way. Moreover, I hated denying this and staying here for the rest of my life even more.

Akasha clicked her tongue as she watched Stella and Prinia starting to take off their clothes.

“You do all kinds of things. Please do your best.”

At those words, Stella tilted her head and asked.

“Why are you talking like you’re talking to someone else?”

“……What?”

“If you think about it, you did it. Your fault is the biggest, and you should also take responsibility.”

Prinia agrees with Stella’s words.

“That’s right. If you think about it, we are just providing free service. Because the one who is really at fault is Akasha…”

“Wait a minute, what are you guys trying to do now…!”

“I guess I happened to have a woman’s body. You should give birth to as much as you kill.”

The two, now completely naked, worked together to strip Akasha.
