[Ask about your plan.]
I take a long and gentle breath.
I don’t want to be perturbed.
Although, the God has been reading my mind.
I didn’t expect the God of Hope to know about the conversation I had with the God of Slow in her temple.
I thought that God could only read my superficial thoughts at best and would not know what occurred at other temples.
I finally understand why the God of Slow didn’t want to answer my questions.
The God of Hope’s laughter tickles my ears again.
He didn’t laugh aloud, but in a soft voice.
The gentle and ambiguous murmur draws all my attention away.
“What do you an?”
[You didn’t want to ask about your plans? My apologies.]
“You’re sad?”
[Yes, I am. So why don’t you ask about your plan?]
Pitiful.
No God would be sad for such a thing.
[Tell .]
There are two reasons.
First of all, there is no need to obtain the answer from other Gods if I’ve already gotten it from one God.
What is the second one?
“I don’t think you will like my plan.”
[Why do you think so?]
“Actually, the hope is the strongest bond than anything else in the world. Then you could only like the control thod of System, and you won’t find it annoying.”
I’ve been able to distinguish Gods to so extent with my recent experiences.
Laughter echoes in my ears again.
[It’s rude to say so. I am hope.]
I disagree.
That’s just a personal interpretation of the God in front of .
[Your thoughts are unimportant, ignorant, and foolish, human.]
“No, the only thing that matters are my thoughts. Just as you judge hope by what you believe.”
The laughter around my ears stops.
Even the sound I didn’t recognize disappears, what remains is a silent world that spread endlessly.
[I have sothing to tell you.]
“I’ve heard all I wanted to know. Now I wish to proceed to the next stage. Please send away.”
A portal appears by my feet as soon as I finish my words.
I didn’t expect the portal to appear by my will regardless if the God permitted it.
I hurry to the portal and move onwards, but the God of Hope murmurs.
[Are you going to run away?]
“.......”
I keep silent by the portal for a while.
The laughter of the God of Hope, which had disappeared, echoes again.
[Interesting. But it is inevitable. As a human, your judgental ability is so wired.]
“Tell .”
[Now you dare to even command a God.]
The presence of the God of Hope began changing.
His presence that felt like a small, frail insect in an open space beca overwhelming and oppressive.
I can’t stop the force from pressuring my body.
I dare not even think about it.
Because I am still in this space.
Now I am the fruit fly standing before a God.
[Yes, I wanted to treat you like a disposable toy just as you worried. When the ti is right, I will drop a fishing line for you who continues to swim deeper and deeper into despair. But it seems that you don’t want to bite my hook even if you died. It’s incredible to be in despair and refuse hope. This helped understand you better than any other God.]
The God of Hope is sending out ferocious power.
The voice of the buzzing little insect has been replaced by that of a giant monster with tusks exposed roaring around my ears.
[How does it feel to be oppressed by my power? Are you not happy? Don’t you feel excited about the height of the wall you are going to climb? ]
The roaring God of Hope continues.
[Of course, I know about your ambitions. All the gods of the Hundred Gods Temple know of it. I only ask you one question. Is this goal truly for that Lizardman? Be honest, perhaps it’s just for your self-satisfaction. If you really want to save that lizardman, it is not too late to beco an apostle of the God of Slow. You should go accumulate enough contribution points to trade with the Hundred Gods Temple. It won’t take too long, only 300 years.]
Hearing what the God of Hope said, I understand now.
“... So this is what you wanted to tell .”
[Yes. You are accustod to fighting in despair, so I’m going to give you a little hope. There is nothing more harmful to a deep-sea fish than light.]
The God’s goal is clear.
It doesn’t matter if I’m unpersuaded right now.
What the God wants is to leave a scar in my heart.
When the day when I tire and give up cos, this scar will whisper to and tempt to take a shortcut more comfortable than the current one.
[I use to think so before. But now that I see, you won’t waver so easily. The God of Slow spoke of your essence, a moth that wants to be a fire. For you, despair is not the darkness, but the light.]
The God vicious presence becos as warm as the sun.
Then the God of Hope whispers with heat that would’ve lted my body.
[I’ll tell you what the God of Slow didn’t ntion.]
[As you thought, the poor souls who are locked in the system are not only goblins and lizardn, but also Gods.]
[There must be a God among us who wants to be released from the bondage. You should also know who that is.]
[You don’t have to feel anxious, go ahead. The most powerful God of the Hundred Gods Temples will support you.]
* * *
I pondered about it for a while.
“I don’t understand.”
[What?]
“I don’t understand why you told this.”
[Are you curious?]
“Yes.”
The God of Hope returned to a presence equal to that of an insect. Then he laughs again as if it’s very interesting.
