I Am an Evil God

Episode 66-Different Thoughts

Asseria, the supreme god of a small region made up of polytheistic religions, let out a small sigh.

‘I have to gather the kids first.’

It was clear what the god who had just visited him wanted.

Obedience to oneself.

That was what Shin, who introduced himself as Lemfra, wanted.

He wanted to own this land and he had to make a choice.

As the leader of a faction, she must not make a choice alone, so she called together those who were bound by the same myth.

Due to the characteristics of polytheism, it was normal for her to be vague about where exactly to divide her thoughts, but since the forces around her were based on beliefs completely different from her own, she was able to summon all the gods tied to the same polytheism.

“What happened all of a sudden. Sister.”

A dependable-looking man asked while looking at Acetria.

His face was quite grim, but his eyes were filled with respect and trust towards Assetria.

There was a reason why the gods of this region became known for being close to humans.

The gods had a very close relationship, and everyone respected and followed Astria.

“Just now, a powerful god came to visit me from outside.”

Everyone started to raise their guard at her words.

It was unbelievable that it was an outside god.

Was there a powerful god that could influence this far?

“It would be nice if the powerful god that Astria-sister talked about was the Dragon Lord next door.”

Assetria said while looking at the goddess, who was believed to be a child god by humans and was getting younger day by day.

“I didn’t say that the Dragon Lord was strong enough. A god with divine power incomparably stronger than ours came to me and said that he wants our mythology to go under his.”

“How strong of a god can you say such arrogant things?”

“It seems that he sold the name of the creator god to strengthen his divine power.”

“Your sister is also called the god who created the world in our area! Isn’t it similar to your sister?”

At the words of Alter, the dreadlocked man, Acetria shook her head.

“That’s because I’m the supreme god, so humans vaguely assume that I must have created this world. When I was on Earth, I must have read a lot of myths in which the supreme god naturally also holds the position of a creator god.”

But he was different.

If her hunch is correct, the god Lemfra would have called himself a creator god from the time he first announced himself to humans.

“…So maybe it would be nice. You’re not going to quietly go under Lemfra.”

“I think that’s a good way to go, and Lemp promised not to interfere in any way with our mythology. He just told us that we just need to tell humans that he exists above our heads. They say it will bless the whole land of .”

“That’s a penalty worth taking.”

“If my sister would say that, it must be a good condition.”

The conditions Lemfra offered were quite favorable.

Because you can receive a huge blessing in return for giving up the position of the supreme god.

“But how can we trust Lemfra’s words?”

The problem was that they were not sure that Lemfra would betray them.

Believing his words, he preached about Lemfra to humans, but from that moment on, he could have interfered with humans and drove them away.

“That will have to be decided when we meet again with Lemfra. If we don’t make him a trustworthy safeguard, if we say we can’t go along with his offer, what will Lemfra not want?”

“Are you sure you’re going under Lemfra?”

The boy, who had been making a twisted expression the whole time, raised his hand and said.

When he first arrived in this world, he was a sturdy adult man, but he was accepted as a child by humans and slowly took on the form of a child because of his small body. Because of this, he was an existence that maintained a quarrelsome relationship with Astria.

Nonetheless, no one believed that the two truly hated each other because they were beings in a mythical atmosphere that were close to each other.

Two gods who often express opposite opinions due to differences in values.

Humans accepted it that way.

“It’s not clear yet, Tay. We’ll have to listen to everyone.”

“I will not go under a bastard named Lemfra. This land is the land we have cultivated. We cannot hand over the position of supreme god to a god from another region. Because he is the one who came, he can be served as the supreme god.”

At his words, Acetria nodded her head in understanding.

I could fully understand his feelings.

No matter how much the myth is maintained, changing the position of the supreme god is not a problem that can be solved so easily.

“Do you think you should go under Lemfra?”

“If he’s someone I can trust, I think I should go under him. He’s really powerful. I think we’ll only lose if we resist him.”

Teiya continued with a firm expression.

“I’d like to make a proposal to you and all the gods gathered here.”

“Yes, tell me.”

“In a situation like this, if everyone accepts one side of the opinion, either by a majority vote or by the opinion of Acetrian-sama, I think there will definitely be people who will be dissatisfied. Even if Lemfra doesn’t do anything to us, our situation is so divided. It could have bad consequences.”

“Are you saying that there will be a division between those who follow Lemfra and those who will not?”

Teiya nodded his head with a heavy gaze.

“That’s right. I’d rather split up than have anyone complain.”

“You say split up so easily.”

Anger lingered at Asetria’s words.

From noble mtl dot com

She loved all the gods around her.

Although he was always at odds with Teiya, he was still Ascetria’s younger brother, and he was a trustworthy god who knew how to express opinions different from his own.

Break up with those people?

Let’s live by creating a different myth just because we have different opinions?

There is no way that the myth that accepted a new god named Lemfra and the gods that did not accept him could live in a gentle mixture.

Right now, Lemp will bestow blessings on themselves, and bring disaster on Teija and those who have the same thoughts, so it was obvious that human emotions would target each other.

“I don’t think we should be separated by any means. Do you think it makes sense for us to become enemies overnight after being brothers?”

“Then convince me. Even if I die, I have no intention of going under Lemfra.”

Teiya turned back and returned to his village, and the other gods near his village followed him.

Acetria couldn’t catch Teiya.

His heart fully understood Ascetria.

She knew very well how much she would be against it when a new god suddenly entered this land and said that the god would ascend to a higher place than herself.

‘What should I do?’

Would you rather oppose the entry of Lemfra into this land together with Teiya?

Thinking like that, humans got caught.

When I thought that innocent humans would be harmed by being caught up in the conflict between the gods, my heart was strongly disturbed there.

“I’m going to have to think about it a little more. I think I’ll have to find a way to get to Teiya if possible.”

“Yes, somehow we all have to move together.”

There is still a little more time left.

During that time, I have to somehow convince Teiya.

‘If I can’t…’

I can’t help it.

At that time, as Teiya said, we have no choice but to take a different path from him…

“For now, go back to your respective seats. I want to have some alone time.”

All the gods returned to their respective villages.

And like the gods who love to tell their stories to humans, they told the humans what happened today.

The humans were told that a powerful deity named Lemfra had come to this land and that there had been a small quarrel between Assetria and Teiya over whether to follow him or not.

Their habit of trying to share the history of humans and gods is starting to lead the future in directions no one thought possible.

“Teiya-sin. Please reconcile with Acetra-sama.”

Humans wanted reconciliation between the gods.
