Chapter 668: The Love Sung by The God of the End ① (1/2)

Caught up in a Hero Summoning, I arrived at another world, Trinia. At the end of the year, I was given an ordeal by the God of that world, Shiro-san, and with the help of many people, I was able to overcome the ordeal…… and finished saying goodbye to the people who took care of me back in Earth, I returned back to this world.

Then, after I finished greeting my acquaintances and visited Shiro-san, she asked me for a revenge match…… Unnn, nope, don't understand.

[……Errr, Shiro-san?]

[What is it?]

[A revenge match?]

[Yes. A revenge match. Just having this defeat frustrates me, so I'm going to win this time.]

[……………….]

It's not that this is the first time I've realized how much of an airhead Shiro-san is, but I still didn't expect this turn of events. If she's talking about a revenge match, does it mean that she's going to put me in another ordeal?

I thought that Shiro-san was somehow satisfied with the results of that ordeal but……

[No, that's ”not what I was talking about”.]

[……Yes?]

[It isn't a revenge match for that ordeal. As you thought, I'm satisfied with the result…… although I'm still dissatisfied that you cleared it in one shot.]

You're still dissatisfied with one I cleared it in one try!? N- No, that aside, it doesn't seem to be related to the ordeal. Rather, it's not a revenge match for that ordeal?

……Then, what kind of revenge match is this?

[This revenge match is for when Kaito-san defeated me when we first met.]

[……E- Errr…… that time when you gave me your blessing?]

[Yes. At that time, Kaito-san told me that ”I couldn't give you what you really wanted”.]

[……Yes, that really was what I said.]

When I first met Shiro-san, I certainly did tell her that when she told me that she could give me one thing I wanted.

[And thus, it's time for my revenge. Let's see if I really can't give you what you wanted, Kaito-san.]

[……H- Huhh?]

What is this? I can't read Shiro-san's intentions at all. It's just that, putting aside the Shiro-san back then, the current Shiro-san should know that I don't really want to become super powerful that much.

If that's the case, what is Shiro-san trying to give me? The only thing that comes to mind……

As I was thinking about this, Shiro-san lightly waved a finger in front of me…… and for a moment, a blinding light enveloped the area. When the light cleared up———— I became lost for words.

[……Mom…… Dad……]

[It's been a while, Kaito…… Though I say that, we did just meet in that dream of an ordeal, didn't we?]

[How should I say this…… This feels strange. For us, who were supposed to be dead, to be ”resurrected” like this……]

[……Resur…… rected?]

My mind can't keep up with the situation at all. The shock was so strong that I couldn't organize my thoughts. I was just dumbfounded, quietly parroting Mom and Dad's words, but with a slight smile on her lips, Shiro-san spoke.

[What are you surprised about? I'm a God. It's no big deal for a being such as I to bring a dead person back to life…… negotiating the transfer of these two souls from Earth God was much more of a hassle though.]

[……Transferred from Eden-san…… Then……]

[Yes, these two are undoubtedly Kaito-san's parents. They aren't just different people that had the same memories of the original.]

[ ! ? ]

Mom and Dad…… were brought back to life? She did it so easily, as if it's something natural for her to do……

[Please leave the emotional reunion for later. I've already spoken to Lilia Albert beforehand, so I'll have her explain the future to the two of them.]

[Yes. Well then, Kaito, see you later!]

[……I can understand your confusion. I mean, even I don't fully understand it yet either…… but well, just thinking how I can live together with Mom and Kaito…… makes me happy.]

As Shiro-san lightly waved her hand again, Mom and Dad turned into light. Even with their disappearance though, my thoughts still hadn't regained its composure. However, there's one thing I'm sure of…… It's that I could be with Mom and Dad again.

Little by little, I felt heat budding within me and tears dripping down my eyes. Is this alright? For such a happy thing to happen, for such an unbelievable miracle to come true……

[……And who would dare complain? I am the God of this world. My words are the rules.]

[……Shiro-san.]

[As long as I'm here, you don't have to worry about things like choices. You don't need to give up on anything. I have never been an impartial God. I will favor the one I like to the fullest. I will never give you a future other than one filled with happiness.]

Saying those words, an extremely smug smile appeared on Shiro-san's face…… it isn't just my imagination, as a three-dimensional ”Doya!” was literally floating beside her, which made me reflexively chuckle.

(T/N: ドヤ / Doya. Smug.)

Ahh, that's unfair…… That's really unfair…… There's no way…… I can win against that……
