Chapter 47: Makoto’s World ~Tomoe~

~ Tomoe’s Side~

My master was sitting.

His presence was thin. It was one step to death.

However, I couldn’t smell death from master. How contradictory.

Master had left the party before it was over, feeling that his presence was getting thinner, I arrived at this place with Mio.

What in the world is this?

Mio wanted to jump out as soon as possible to confirm his safety, but I stopped her.

Waka’s state. It was as if he did this habitually.

I instructed Mio to stay and analyze the situation. There were no signs of Waka committing suicide. On the contrary, he said that he would be taking off his mask, that he would make a store inside a company, and we had the matter about becoming a member of the kingdom. It was more like, he was living his life plentifully.

He was also pretty happy about Mio finding that flower.

And in front of us, an insane ritual was occurring.

This was an event that didn’t bore me when I watched it, but right now it wasn’t the time for that.

One of the problems that we couldn’t solve even when we investigated it, the Asora expansion, happened at the exact moment when Waka’s consciousness returned!

At the same time, Waka’s presence become clear, and the paired up arrow was send flying to the far away target as if it was being sucked in. Its gesture was so beautiful that it would captivate anyone. It was as natural as breathing. Our eyes move from Waka to the arrow, and then to the far away target.

Such thinking like ‘it would not hit’, there wasn’t even a shred of it in our mind. By the moment Waka changed from seating to moving position, I was already certain it would hit.

And when I moved my gaze from the target to Waka, I felt like my mouth turned wide-open.

The magic power of Waka that was already enormous, had suddenly increased.

The maximum capacity of magic power is not something that would normally increase. Even when you put your whole life into it to train, by doubling that amount you would be called a demonic existence.

There is also the secret method of utilizing a pact, but the demerits of it are quite big. In a lot of meanings it’s an outside measure, a method that could even be called a forbidden technique-ja.

And that magic power’s maximum capacity has suddenly increase by double.

His presence grows thin once again. Mio’s face becomes grim. I am also very anxious.

And then, Asora began to distort, and, his magic power doubled.

Are you telling me that he has been repeating a dying and resurrection process?! Asora grew bigger a number of times as arrows were send flying, every time an arrow is released, the expansion occurs.

Are you telling me that this world of Asora is responding to Waka’s increase of magic power and expanding?

Then, is the Asora that I create and this one, different things? This… is a world that Waka created unconsciously after he made a pact with me?!

Something like the creation of a world, is an act that no one in this world would be able to accomplish you know?

It’s not something half-assed like the dimension that I am specialized in and am able to interfere in.

That’s right, it can’t compare to this. Even that Goddess is unable to.

The Goddess ‘descended’ to this lands, and after speaking to a number of previous residents that lived in it, created a world where it would be possible to live in. She made a contract with the people of this lands, and on top of that, gave birth to various species.

As such, I and the other superior dragons are some of those previous residents. By the way, Mio is, in a sense, a previous resident as well. In her case, she was a drifter, she ended up in this lands by coincidence.

That’s right, even the Goddess couldn’t freely create it. I know that she is not the strongest God race in existence, but she is one of the Gods that were left with the management. She must have some status herself.

Then, what in the world is our master? Are you telling me that he did something that surpassed that Goddess by several ranks, unconsciously?

With his own efforts? Or is it the power which was given to master by that God when he came to this world, the one responsible of this? From what I have seen in Waka’s memories, it felt like someone who wasn’t that significant, a venerable God.

No matter if he came from another world, he is still a human being. Even with effort or assistance, it’s not something I can think of possible.

Wait, in the case that my deduction about this world is correct, it may be possible that I can finish another case which was assigned to me.

The irregularity of Asora’s climate. A solution to that arises.

Well, at any rate.

What an interesting situation. A person that could reach a creation-deity class magic power after a few more shots of his archery. How bizarre. Moreover, that action he does to reach the level of a God is not an ordeal but something he does habitually.

I will never get tired. Makoto is an existence that will never bore me. It makes me question if he really will die in a hundred years. I can’t believe it.

If that is the case, it’s not an exaggeration to think that the Goddess will take attention to this. More like, it’s possible she would use a number of influential people and even the heroes in order to overwhelm him.

Surpassing a God.

Waka talks ill about the Goddess, but I couldn’t feel hostility or malice, and even if there is, it was a pure hatred that didn’t end in murder intent.

He may diss her and he may quarrel about her. There may not be favorable feelings for her. But, why is it? I can’t imagine the image of my master bathed in the blood of that Goddess and pushing her unto the path of destruction.

It may be that I just don’t want to imagine his figure drowned in madness and hatred. In a normal case, it would be a treatment that would incite anyone to want to kill her. Of all things she threw him into the wastelands, it even makes me question her sanity.

In time, surpassing God. The name of the act given to God killers surfaced in my mind.

Anyways, it’s a forbidden word. Looking at my master that was downhearted and laughing weakly, I couldn’t stop my lips from lifting up.

A clerk in the company or the role of examining Asora. Even using me as a convenient dictionary for this world’s items.

Use me for anything. If it’s for this splendid and dangerous master that I can’t see the limits of, I will do anything.

  1. Yeah, I like Tomoe and his relaptionship with Makoto. About the part of the Goddess, I have a thought from many years ago when I first read the history, but because I stopped before confirm it I’m not sure about it, when I reach more or less the point in which I have the thought I will comment it.

  3. Some of the hyumans are upset at the Goddess for not answering any prayers, blessing or protecting them from the demons for 10 years.
    Does that mean there is only one Goddess in this world?
    Yeah, why bother praying to an absentee Goddess.

  4. TvT I love the inner monologues of the followers in novels like these. It’s so heartwarming hearing about their loyalty and respect for their ‘master’s.

  7. I believe these “gods” are actually people from other “worlds” that happen to have god-like powers in dimensions other than their own. So the bug could easily be from another dimension and was before a normal woman, something scared her to believe only “beauty” is acceptable.

  8. Well, it doesn’t surprise me that he has capabilities to create a new world, Tsukuyomi did give him the [Sakai] to protect himself, but at that time his power supply was almost depleted, so in order to give that ability he used the power he inherited for his father, Izanagi, the creator god of the earth in the Shintoism religion, so the true abilities of that power are yet to be revealed.

    1. If that were to happen, he would have a fun time explaining to everyone why two beautiful women follow him around. To his parents, to his friends, to all the jealous guys out there.

  18. Basically saying, Makoto has officially become a force that the bug may end up fearing in the future. I knew it, he changed from basically being a Son Goku to a Superman. What’s more interesting, possibly a Golden Age Superman as prior to the 80’s Superman had all kinds of strange powers in the comics.

    I’m not much for Makoto killing the bug as much as I am for him causing her pain. Dead men tell no tales, it’s the survivors that have that burden. The goddess doesn’t need death, just a defeat that will last her for all eternity.

  19. The way I see it, Makoto isn’t Godlike, yet, but he is capable of creating a different world in Asora’s space/dimension (only). He didn’t create any creature, but making pacts with Tomoe (original resident of the world/dimension) and Mio (world/dimension drifter) boosted his world creating power. His huge magic power and habitual concentration is the only power-up that he has. Other abilities are given to him by Tsukiyomi only to protect him. Plus the language curse by Bug.

  20. Thank for the update

    Now that i know he’s already suppassed the bug, i’m satified. Kinda understand why she doesn’t tell him her whole thought though

    1. Plot twist: is the bug
      .
      .
      .
      .
      .
      .
      ok no, that would be awful.
      But it would be fine if it were something more OP than Tomoe/Mio, since MC can have tons of servants of that level

      2. Yeah, but not as a harem member xD
        As a maid (slave?) or the like ( MC making her apologize and tease her a bit), but not a harem member lol

  28. Thanks 4 the chapter!

    Well, this opened up the possibility of Makoto becoming a god. Just by entering a zen state his mana doubled and Asora expand. I won’t be surprised if by the end an entire galaxy or even a universe will fit in there.

  29. I think it would be interesting if Makoto replaced the bug as the god of that world. Thank you for translating the series as well, it’s one of my favorites.

  30. How a god dies is likely not as envisioned by Tomoe, they are beings outside of known space and time after all, functioning as either creators or administrators, as it were. What might be possible would be a reduction in rank (from Administrator to Supervisor maybe) and power (aka divine power, which might be tied to magic power here).

    If belief plays a part here as well, then it is possible that Makoto can seriously wound the Bug/Goddess just by :

    a) spiriting away all the powerful creatures to Asora (since they are not her followers and probably provide stability to the world by their presence or magical power)

    and/or

    b) having the most of the hyumans believe in him instead.

    I Can’t Wait!

    2. it all depends on how the author defines gods i dont think that definition is clear yet but than again this is not that kind of philosophical book

    1. You follow those novels to? I’ve been looking for the newest volume, but I haven’t heard anything yet. The next one is going to be the civil war between the campione, right?

  39. So in a sense that goddess kinda similar to invader and Hyuman is same, dragon is old resident but what about Demon and Mamono ? If they old resident too then that bug deprive their rights in that world since other than hyuman they life in barren and harsh land

    1. I think the original world was the like the barrens, it looks like he goddess made a deal for a portion of it that she made fertile in exchange for creating new lifeforms, but since it looks like the things she made needs her blessings to survive they didn’t spread much

      1. hmm summary since that Bug only value something that Beautiful she didnt want to give her blessing to Mamono and Demon since them not in her criteria like Makoto case

    2. Hyumans are the altered form of the humans that were originally there before the Goddess arrived. So rather than hyumans being invaders, they were more of native species that got altered by a bug. Think of the goddess as the player of a sim game (rollercoaster tycoon, sim city) that uses cheats/godmode. to make her favorite sims have a good evnironment, and, and to pick up discontent or disagreeing customers and throw them in a pond in her park.

      1. altered form ? if i didnt mistake that bug trying to make something similar to Human but can’t, she can only make inferior version of Human who will become basis for Hyuman (if i not mistake this form Prologue) in prologue earth are the harshest planet and Human who reside in earth can be said strong (even without cheat from god) compared to other species in other planet. that why that bug want to kidnap a Human from earth this to who became reason why Makoto in Infancy period really weak that not strange he died that time since his basis is there of Hyuman. Unlike her Older sister who still have residual blessing from the bug (taken from the parents) and her Little sister who already adapt to earth enviroment

    3. More like the bug is the invader and the Hyuman race being the aftermath of what happened to the original humans that lived there. According to the lore in past chapters, humans were the ancestors of hyumans. So the hyuman race are descended from those who made pacts with the bug many millennium ago.

    3. I like Tomoe too but Mio is just too adorable. 😀
      First i thought that she will just be some slightly annoying yandere masochist glutton who will be there only to pester the MC for comic relief. I’m glad that she turned out as such a lovable character 🙂

      2. Bug is going to become part of the harem. She’ll be masochistic like Mio, but on the emotional side instead. Makoto will tease her and she’ll like it.

        PS I just made this up.

      3. If he were to kill her, it wouldn’t be a matter of being just as bad as the bug. It would be a matter of being worse. Even if he were to squash the bug, the bug’s followers would resent him for all eternity. Not to mention that he is mortal regardless, so one day he too would eventually die.

      4. He is not really a vengeful type of person he is somewhat the kind of person I like I he ever actually kills her it would be because he has to and not because he wants to

      5. i think he will just take all the demons and half-hyumans who do no longer wish to live in the world of the bug and they can all live in his world

        but this is just me guessing

    2. Well, he might squash her along the way, but in the end do you really hate a bug all that much? She’s naught but a prissy, pain in the ass stepping stone at best.

      2. I think most of us are forgetting the real crimes that the bug has committed. She basically just harassed Makoto (dropped him in the middle of nowhere) except for the time she used him as cannon fodder. The rest of the gods are going to charge her for kidnapping the subjects of other gods in 100 years time (or maybe less), so while Makoto is limited to chopping her head off, the other gods are not so restrained. I can see them stripping her of her powers and sent to live as a mortal or imprisoning her and giving her world to Makoto. Hell, the most ironic one I can think of would be to send her to Earth!

        While this story has death, it is the “one step removed” kind, clean and impersonal. Makoto going all blood and guts would throw the tone of the story off completely.

    3. I think that normal seriously
      I can’t think of any pro on killing her if just punishment I think it’s still okay

      I can think of a lot con if she is dead:
      1. Who would manage the world?
      2. What would happen to the residents would receive her bless?
      3. What would happen to world?

      Indeed her action make him suffer however he would definitely not died just injured at worst so I see there is no need to kill her.

      At best her action can be call prank at worst I don’t know. The goddess is just bias
