I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace (WN) Chapter 2086: Intermission: Gathering of Gods ①

Chapter 2086: Intermission: Gathering of G.o.ds ①

As Kaito, Olivia, and Kaori's date approached…… a separate plan was beginning to unfold in a place unknown to Kaito.

It was a bizarre sight. A pure white s.p.a.ce stretched endlessly, with a single enormous round table placed in the center. In this specially-created s.p.a.ce, beings far beyond human understanding sat around the table.

[……It seems everyone has gathered.]

The one who quietly murmured was the host who prepared this s.p.a.ce, the creator of Trinia and the pinnacle of the world…… G.o.d of Creation Shallow Vernal.

[Well, I think later I'll need to speak to more people, but for now, I think nearly everyone s.h.i.+ro called has shown up.]

Responding to Shallow Vernal's words was someone born from the power once split off from Shallow Vernal, the nominal ruler of the Demon Realm…… Underworld Kuromueina.

[As for me, I'm worried whether there are any problem children who might cause trouble for my beloved child…… Eh? Alice, why are you suddenly placing a mirror in front of me?]

Sitting with the terminal, Paradise Eden, behind her, speaking in a somewhat relaxed tone, was the Otherworld G.o.d with iridescent eyes and a mechanical wing…… Machine G.o.d Makina.

[Watch closely. The one reflected in that mirror is the biggest troublemaker, so make sure to remember, and please don't let her run wild. I'm starting to get tired of being in Makina Duty……]

Speaking with an exasperated expression on her face was the ruler of Trinia's underworld…… Known in the world as Phantasmal King No Face, Alice.

[U- Umm, a- a- a- are we sure I belong here? I feel overwhelmingly uneasy here……]

Shaking in fear with a pale expression on her face was one of G.o.d Realm's Supreme G.o.ds…… G.o.d of Fate, Fate.

[Well~~ isn't it fine? Since this summons is for beings above Quasi-Omnipotent level, I think you meet the standards. I mean, I'm a newcomer to this world myself, so if we're talking about feeling out of place, I'd say I'm up there too. Oh, by the way, Nebula-san said she'd personally offer a small congratulatory gesture but won't be attending.]

Trying to lightly rea.s.sure Fate, the one who lets out a cheerful voice with an expression that doesn't move a muscle is the G.o.d who wandered through countless worlds and ultimately settled in Kaito's world…… Vicissitude G.o.d Ca.n.a.lis.

They were all individuals with abilities at the level of Quasi-Omnipotence or higher…… in other words, the powerful beings with G.o.d-like abilities who exist as the higher-ups in Trinia were all gathered in this very s.p.a.ce.

[By the way, it's been a long time, Machine G.o.d-san.]

[Ahh~~ errr, has it been around 1.8 billion years? Still, it's surprising that you, who were t.i.tles like Vicissitude G.o.d and Wandering G.o.d, are now living in my beloved child's world.]

[Tahaa~~ That might just be because of Kaito-sama's charm.]

[I get ya. The cuteness of my beloved child knows no bounds. Of course, even G.o.ds would be charmed.]

[……Personally, I think Kaito-sama is more on the cool side, but well, to each their own, I guess.]

Ca.n.a.lis, who had traveled to different worlds for many years, had visited Makina's world before, and they were acquainted. Hearing Ca.n.a.lis speak highly of Kaito, Makina nodded with a proud expression. It seemed she was in a good mood.

[Chit-chat is all well and good, but before that, let's take care of what we need to. I’m sure everyone knows what we're discussing here today, so there's no need to elaborate on it. But before that, let's deal with the important stuff first…… Everyone here will be bound by a contract.]

With Shallow Vernal's calm announcement, the expressions of those gathered grew serious. Just as Shallow Vernal and Makina hold the contract between them important, G.o.ds of World Creator-level held contracts in high regard.

After all, if beings of Omnipotent-level power were to fight, they could battle for billions of years without a clear resolution, so creating contracts between World Creators was a common way to avoid conflicts.

Of course, these contracts didn't really have the power to restrict the actions of Omniscient and Omnipotent G.o.ds, but breaking a contract between World Creators would lead to distrust from other G.o.ds, and they would be isolated, sometimes even looked upon by hostile eyes. Therefore, it was rare for any World Creators to break contracts they made between each other.

The fact that such a contract would be made in this place meant that it was tied to the discussions that were about to take place.

[First, the unilateral actions of those present here…… any sneaky moves are prohibited. If you wish to carry out something on your own judgment, you must first obtain approval from at least two others here before proceeding. Next, in the upcoming discussion, regardless of our positions or abilities, we will have an equal right to speak. For example, even if Fate denies or criticizes my opinion during this meeting, I will not consider it disrespectful, nor will it affect my relations.h.i.+p with Fate after the discussion. Please understand that refraining from speaking freely is, in fact, an insult to others.]

[Understood.]

[That concludes the terms of the contract. If there are no objections, please touch the round table.]

When everyone agreed to the terms spoken by Shallow Vernal and touched the round table, an intricate pattern, formed from everyone’s magic power, appeared in the center of the table….. a symbol of the contract.

With that, the preparations were complete, and Shallow Vernal finally spoke the main subject.

[……Well then, we hereby begin the "Discussion regarding Kaito's birthday"…… which is rapidly approaching two months from now.]
