Dozens of pupils are shocked. Pleasant stimulation and tension rub through my entire body.

Those gods are frozen, unable to move at a few words from me. The most noble and great species is being controlled by a mere demon like me.

Is there any other situation as enjoyable as this? There is probably no demon in the world who has a happier life than me.

“No one will come out? Umm… This is really difficult. Dear God, I never thought you would be such a coward.”

Even the fearless god of thunder, Thor, cannot easily take steps under the heavy pressure of eternal extinction. It’s a pleasant flow.

A slight sense of superiority and exaltation dominates the brain. Adrenaline rushes through you as if you have taken a stimulant.

“Well, okay. Actually, I actually like it better that way. There’s no need to see something as ugly as blood, right? Between us.”

“Between us? When did we first meet?”

“There were unforgettable memories. You all forgot.”

The world does not remember the person who hit, but only remembers the person who was hit. I still feel the pain in my head from being hit by them throbbing beyond time and space, but they lived a very comfortable life.

“You seem to be out of your mind.”

“I often hear things like that. I am the most normal person.”

“… They say that abnormal people don’t know that they are abnormal.”

“That’s what the abnormal world said. It’s true. This world doesn’t know that they are the most abnormal.”

“… .”

Odin’s one and only eye contains an unknown depth. I smiled. It’s a show-style laugh. I wasn’t nervous at all.

The murmurs among the gods are becoming more and more frequent, but no one can dare to say that they should kill me.

The moment those words come out, he will be at the forefront. None of them are prepared to disappear.

The best way to turn a bomb is to throw it far away, but who will take on the brave role in this breathtaking battle of wits?

“No? really? no one? ah! I will sacrifice myself for our gods! Isn’t there a hero with such a strong sense of justice? Of course, it would be impossible to have just one person!”

“… .”

I allowed the gods to answer, but they remained silent.

I can’t help it. Since no one is stepping forward, I must step forward.

Because veteran clowns usually play double roles.

“Hmm… Can I offer a compromise at this point? Noble people?”

They put their hands together as if they were clapping. A cheerful pair! The sound resonates.

“I know what you’re worried about. You must be afraid that an impure person like me, or a risk factor, might cause an unpredictable accident.”

“… .”

“So, I completely understand your desire to get rid of me right away, but don’t you consider my position? I am also a life, a dynamic being who endlessly pursues life, but there is no way I will die obediently just because of your resentment.”

I mumble sadly as if lamenting my situation, and express my position. Zeus said without blinking. Anyway, he’s like a god who doesn’t have anything in his brain other than sex.

“So, what are you offering as a compromise?”

“You also have an impatient personality. Anyway, of all the things I’m going to do, what you’re most concerned about is, of course, the creation of God, right?”

“Yes. Gods are the most noble species of all, so how can you stand by and watch mortals like you subjectively create gods? .”

“Get rid of sounds that are not even in your mind. Noble servant? If the noble species were female, would they go about scattering seeds here and there regardless of race? Even now, when women in a foreign country become pregnant after having an affair, they excuse themselves by saying, ‘Zeus has gone away.’ It’s all because of someone.”

“… Is this a provocation?”

“Are you trying to accuse me of provocation, defamation, and blasphemy by simply mentioning the facts? Well, that’s up to your discretion, Zeus, but let’s talk about our true nature.”

I took out the magic stick. The tip of the thin stick pointed at Meta.

“Everyone, honestly, how many of you can beat that meta in a 1v1 match?”

“… !”

“The main deity of the Holy Order shares power with believers, but gods like you live by receiving faith from believers. Of course, the source of that power and faith is ‘humans.’ Even among those people, there are only certain countries or groups.”

“This guy, what are you trying to say?”

“Meta is the only god. The sole god of the goblins. While you share and share the faith of countless humans, Meta will monopolize the faith of all goblins. Of course, humans are far superior to goblins in mental abilities such as faith, but the difference in quantity is too large.”

“Nam… !”

“At this very moment, the meta is getting stronger in real time. You can tell by looking at the sacred energy surrounding Meta’s body. Are you like that too? Rather than becoming stronger, aren’t you just gaining faith like ant droppings to the point where all you can do is maintain your divine status?”

Long ago, when Satan tempted Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden to eat an apple.

It is said that at that time, Satan turned into a snake and tempted him.

Anyway, I like the imagination of old people.

How did you know that the snake’s tongue is truly a good tongue and made up such a story?

“Soon, Meta will become a god with a divinity comparable to that of the highest gods. You can use humans to oppress and slaughter goblins, but the goblin species has been treated like that for a long time. He was frequently cut down by the punitive force, and was treated like a street mutt by the same monsters… Really, the point of its appeal is that its vitality is as tenacious as it is crude.”

“State the requirements, don’t spin around.”

“It’s simple. I won’t make any more scenes. I’ve already done enough deceiving you. I don’t think anything more insignificant than a goblin will appear. In the first place, my goal was not something grand like ‘conquering the world’ or ‘being the leader of the gods.’ I’m just running for fun pranks.”

“A prank?”

“Cats freak out when they see a ticking pocket watch, and dogs lose their senses when they see flying bones. Everyone has that thing that makes them lose their senses, right? It’s like when Zeus sees a female and runs at her with all his might,”

“… ! You’ve been talking nonsense since you said your mouth was open. I tore off the mouth of a bastard like you countless times.”

“Really? Then try tearing mine too. If the goblins around the world only harassed your apostles, Zeus, I wonder how quickly he would fall. Maybe you can relieve the resentment of the women who violated you?”

Zeus’ face turns bright red. I didn’t really have any intention of teasing you, but since you gave me the chance, I had to ask. I have a habit of exposing other people’s secrets when I see them.

“Oscar Lucifer, is it okay for someone who proposes to insult the head of the Olympian world?”

Odin, Zeus’s rival, steps forward to replace Zeus, who is indignant. He seemed somewhat refreshed.

“Of course, the best thing is not to cause insults, but hehe… .”

What, you felt the same way as me?

But I have no desire to be on the same boat as you, Odin.

“Odin, are you qualified to say such things?”

“What?”

“When you learn shade (seldr)… You were dressed up as a woman, right? You even felt pleasure in that state. Commonly referred to as a woman’s orgasm, tsk tsk tsk! How did you feel? Did your back bend like a bow and your whole body twist? If I get a chance, I’d like to see it too!”

“… !”

Maybe it’s because they’ve lived longer than anyone else, but the gods have a lot to complain about.

Oh right. Now is not the time to be like this. I almost forgot about my day job.

“Anyway, my suggestion is this. I’m not going to make a god anymore. I did everything I wanted to do. So, there is no harm coming to you if you save me!”

To appear as trustworthy as possible, I shouted in a voice full of trust. Like a fraudster at the moment of selling something.

“How can we believe that?”

“I also thought about that a little bit. How to win the trust of those picky people! Do I have to find a broken branch and walk on it? But, as I thought about it, a method came to mind. An oath that can never be broken.”

“… What is that?”

“Hmm… That’s it… .”

What was it?

It’s been so long since I’ve been able to ‘think’ properly, my mind is still blank. So I can’t remember what I thought about before I started praying.

Oh right.

“Have you ever heard of ‘The Oath of the River Styx’?”

The Oath of the River Styx.

A noble covenant that no one in the world can break.

Whoever utters it cannot break his oath even if the heavens literally split apart. If you try to break it, you will fall into suspended animation and will never be able to eat or drink. Even if you live, you are not alive.

I don’t believe in Olympian mythology, but the Oath of the River Styx is real. So in the past, we would make the target swear and then create a situation where he would be forced to break it.

“Are you going to take the Oath of the River Styx now?”

“There’s nothing that can’t be done, right? Because I am proud. While I’m at it, I swear right now. I, Oscar Lucifer, will not create God, no matter what happens. This is the Oath of the River Styx. Okay?”

“… When I bring up Styx, I can’t hold back anymore.”

It’s a ridiculously simple procedure, but it’s the most certain oath in the world. The gods sighed as if the tension had eased, or scratched their heads at the fact that the problem had been solved more easily than expected.

In particular, Thor, who was conserving his strength to hit me from behind, gritted his teeth and got angry. Oh my, how is it that his hot-tempered nature doesn’t go away even as time goes by?

“However, it would be better not to let down your guard. Oscar Lucifer.”

I guess we’ve made a deal. I said my semi-forced farewell and was about to leave when Odin called me out. An old voice whose depth cannot be guessed penetrates my ears.

“Why, what else do you have left to do?”

“That’s not true, but because of this, you have become a target of warning to the gods. Who knows, one day a blind sword will fly and pierce your heart. Right now, as you said, no one can step forward without permission.”

“Your title has changed. Sleeping in you… Plus advice. Did you suddenly start to like me? That’s strange. All I remember is insulting that person.”

The gods were also grumbling and returning to heaven. Odin, the god of Asgard, moved his time-worn feet and left an incomprehensible statement.

With a very faint smile on his lips.

“It’s just a repayment for making me immerse myself in memories for the first time in a long time. When I look at you, I think of my dead brother.”

“… is it so? Even though it wasn’t my intention, I’m so glad I did a good deed. What I like the most is accumulating good deeds.”

After a short question and answer, the gods all left. Except for one person, the Goblin God Metaman, whom I created.

Now all work is done.

It was time to head to the long-awaited Eden Academy.

“Meta, come here.”

I called to my creation. Meta came running at a rapid pace with his gigantic body.

“Yes, yes! Speak up!”

“I will tell you what to do from now on, so listen carefully and do it. Got it?”

“No, of course! If it’s Oscar’s order, I can even go into the fire pit!”

“Anyway, you won’t die even if you go into a fire pit.”

“Oh… ! Well, I see… ! Then another example… .”

“No, it’s okay. Just do what you are told and do it right.”

Whisper whisper-.

He told Meta’s big green ears about the missions he had to undertake. Meta’s eyes grew increasingly alarmed, but he nodded firmly as if he had made up his mind.

“Okay, then I’ll trust you and leave it to you. Aru! Let’s go!”

“Kkkk! But where are you going?”

“I have to go to the continent!”

It is time to put an end to the 500 years of Masurim.

I left the forest with my pet dog in tow.

Not long after that, I stopped by a weapons store on the continent and purchased a shotgun and an air rifle. If I were to meet a strong person today, I would be able to break their head with just my telekinesis, but compared to a shotgun or an air gun, the taste of my hand is incomparable.

Yeah, I missed this. The smell of gunpowder is strong and red blood is leaking… This beautiful gun barrel. I am already looking forward to life at the academy.

Eden Academy.

And our Saint Mary.

Look forward to it, because the clown is leaving.

*****

God Odin’s heart was deep in thought.

Thor, who was watching the scene closely, asked a question, pretending not to be interested.

“Why did you do that earlier? Did you have something on that Oscar or something?”

Odin comforted his dry lips.

“Thor, did you ever feel familiar when you saw that guy named Oscar?”

“What? Familiar? What kind of Mjolnir crunching sound is that? How do we know such a wet guy?”

“I felt it. no… Looking at this guy, I was reminded of ‘that guy’ who died a long time ago. It’s so amazing. These two can’t possibly be related… .”

“How would I know if it was that guy? I’m not even a mind reader.”

Thor said bluntly, putting Mjolnir on his shoulder. Odin thought that made sense and nodded briefly.

“Loki. That naughty guy.”

“Loki? He died a long time ago.”

“Yes, he died. I’m sure he died… Oscar: Looking at that young demon reminded me of Loki.”

‘Cats go blank when they see a ticking pocket watch, and dogs lose their senses when they see a flying bone… … Isn’t this something Loki often said during his lifetime?’

It was when Odin’s one and only eye became deeper and deeper.

“Ehey! What are you delusional about again?”

match-!

Thor, who avoids pain and suffering, loudly slapped Odin on the back. Because I didn’t feel strong, I didn’t get angry.

“Loki When did that guy die? Why worry about such useless things!”

‘Umm… In fact, one of the countless people in the world may have similar tendencies to Loki… Loki, how long has that guy been dead, but I have these delusions… .’

Odin quickly forgot what had occurred to him. Now was the time to take care of the divine world, which was about to change rapidly with the birth of the Goblin God.
