Cthulhu Average – 21 (1/2)
Chapter 21 – Evil God Average
Holding eon core, for the first time in a while I added a floor
The first time I needed to pay 30,000,000 extra, like some sort of harassment, but with that, I could build floors both below and above ground …Aahh, even though I’d finally saved up thataway from my reach
Leonora was standing next to me with a cramped expression, but I paid her no heed and finished processing the final floor
There weren’t any changes to that rooood performance, and so I turned to look at the scenery reflected on the mirror that I had left beside me
The Kingdom’s soldiers who had completed their formation, the cultists ere ready to dom; all of the people there were frozen in shock and aith their eyes fixed on that one spot
That ned with an exquisite balance of holiness and dreadfulness, and the building itself was like a work of art
Everyone there had surely realised it instinctively; that this was the temple in which the Evil God lived
That’s right On the top of the 5th surface floor, I established a temple
If they misunderstand this as a power I have because I’m the Evil God, then it’ll be even more effective
For the cincher, I brought Leonora and Tena up to the top floor with a teleport
From the balcony of the spire, I could see the duures of the Forteran Army and Evil God Cultists
“Leonora, Tena, if you’d please”
“Yeah, got it”
“Understood, Anri-sama”
Leonora and Tena began chanting ether
I’ve asked the two of thee for my show
What Leonora chanted was a spell that forcibly changed the battlefield to nighttiic
An area of a few kiloulfed in the shadow of night, and in the midst of it all with Leonora and Tena in toalked off the balcony into the air
Norht now because there was a staircase of black smoke that Tena created, I sloent down the stairs
Because my foothold was fluffy and unreliable, even if I knew that I wasn’t going to fall, scary things were still scary
If possible, Leonora, Tena, either was fine, so I’d have preferred to have held someone’s hand, but that wasn’t possible in this situation
The stairs continued all the way to the ground, but I stopped at a landing situated halfway down, and once again overlooked the surface
Now then, it’s ti touches
I quietly closedmy mana
I’ll have them think that there’s a massive difference in power, and ain
My eyes flashed open, and my chant────
────Wha-, huh? The Forteran Aro?
With the stagethe people I was supposed to perform to, unsure of what to do, I froze up
“Us have already ended”
“If you’re looking for the Forterans, they ran away right after they saw you, you know?”
What did you say?
I ignored stuff like the maximum limit, so it’s about to explode, you know?
“Co to stand there? Let’s return already”
Whatever, gunna fire it
It was supposed to be a harmless firework, but because I stopped the chant it’s turned turned into just your nor as I fire it somewhere without towns and stuff
“Wha-!? What do you intend to do!?”
Sorry, it can’t be stopped now
“I-, Idiot! STOOOOOOOOOOP―――!!!”
(¯¯¯-¯¯¯)
(eyes closed, facing up to the sky)
『Candidate “Anri” has exceeded the required faith and fear levels』
『Job has been changed froe” to “Administrator”』
『Gained title “Third Administrator”』
『Gained skill “Administration”』
Huh?
Why did things turn out like this?
No, Iso it’s nothing except reaping what I sow, but even so, who could have predicted that soht be pointless to say anything after all this ti is even deeper than the ocean
I’, so──
“Can’t you forgive me already?”
“No Stay in seiza”
──You’re heartless
After I interrupted the shon between the soldiers and cultists withshocked at the sudden 『voice』, I soed to keep a hold of eon, but what awaited me was punishment from the furious Leonora
Incidentally, the reason that I was being punished like this by Leonora who shouldn’t have even knohat seiza was, is because it was Tena’s suggestion Tena… you definitely held a grudge over that And that being the case, just ih to send a cold sweat down my spine
If I get poked in this state… -tremble tremble-
Also, regarding Leonora’s anger, beco an Evil God was… not why she was athered mana in a random direction
Since I couldn’t hold it back properly, I had no choice but to fire it, but there’d be daer-har left, I fired it into a direction with no towns
And well, of course there were no towns Because it was in the direction of the “Demon Race Territory”
Having realised what I’d done, Leonora began using ic to check with the Deinning to lecture ood job ofthe dae
“Are you listening, Anri!?”
“I’”
I was thinking about so else, but at the very least, it did enter my ear
While Leonora’s lecturing was entering ht, I stealthily chanted “status” under my breath
