Chapter 302.1. The Rebirth Of Humanity
A golden crystal floating in the air. Seeing its divine light, Shizuku instinctively understood.
This was the power of the gods.
The light, while divine, also carried a gentle warmth, and through its mystical power, young sprouts began to emerge from the sandy ground of the stadium.
“We did it, Sakimori-san. With this power, it’s possible to revive humanity. I can feel it. I know it.”
With overwhelming emotion, Shizuku spoke, reflecting on the long war against the dungeons. She had finally reached its end.
By achieving victory over the dungeons.
Tears welled up in her eyes, but she paid them no mind as she reminisced about the battles they had fought.
Humanity had been destined for defeat. The futile struggle of fighting a rigged, unwinnable game with their lives on the line was over. All thanks to Sakimori-san.
When she first met Sakimori, she hadn’t truly believed they could win against the dungeons. At best, she thought they might prolong humanity’s survival.
After all, they had started as powerless humans living in a ruined town. They were neither generals leading armies nor wealthy individuals who could spend money like water.
They could have easily died without achieving anything, but Sakimori-san overturned the board, refusing to play by the enemy’s rules, and achieved victory in this chaotic world. It was astonishing. She could confidently say it would have been impossible for her.
The sheer cunning of Sakimori’s strategies left her in awe. In times of weakness, they skillfully used powerful forces to their advantage, gaining strength in the most ingenious ways.
“With this, my mission comes to an end. I will create human bodies and place their souls within them. [Reincarnation]. While it’s a common trope for reincarnated individuals with memories to thrive, what happens when all of humanity becomes reincarnated?”
Covering her mouth, Shizuku chuckled softly. Billions of humans, all reincarnated. Their value would undoubtedly plummet.
“Revived humanity and minimal facilities. I’m sure they’ll end up fighting among themselves. Humans never learn.”
Moreover, revived through reincarnation. They could no longer use the power of the corrupted elements. Chaos would reign, and a hellish scene would likely unfold.
“Well, to prevent that, the fairy machines will have their work cut out for them.”
Gently placing her hand on the golden crystal, she felt a faint warmth as she absorbed it into her body.
The crystal crumbled like snow, dissolving and being absorbed into Shizuku’s body. Creation and destruction. The ways to use this power came to her mind. It seemed easy to wield.
At this moment, Shizuku had ascended to godhood. She had become the one true god of this world.
“It seems I can use the power of creation without issue, Sakimori-san. It’s all thanks to you. Thank you so much.”
Turning her body lightly, she looked back with a full smile and expressed her gratitude.
To the empty space where no one stood.
“And I apologize for not being able to accompany you in your final battle. I must remain here for the sake of humanity, so my journey ends here.”
The dimensional gate had already closed. The moment Shizuku defeated Shizen-chan, Sakimori-san passed through the gate and returned to the original world. After that, the dimensional gate closed, likely never to open again.
If possible, she would have liked to follow. But leaving this crystal behind and returning with Sakimori-san would have been too dangerous. If not retrieved, new monsters could appear, leading to strange outcomes.
It was a bitter decision, but she chose to remain here.
“However, I am confident in your victory, Sakimori-san. I have always believed in you, and I always will.”
Twirling around, Shizuku danced. The fairy spun lightly, dancing with grace.
The beautiful fairy danced with joy at the prospect of reviving humanity, yet her expression also showed the sorrow of parting from Sakimori-san.
Feeling the soul link break and the loss of shared skills through remaining lives, she danced with a lingering loneliness in her heart.
“Though we parted without farewell, it was a simple goodbye, fitting for us. I love you, Sakimori-san. I always have, and I always will.”
Whispering this, she raised her hands to the sky and smiled. She couldn’t say her farewell aloud. As expected, it would have alerted the enemy.
But that was just like us. Even our final parting, shrouded in strategy, was fitting for us.
“Now, enough sentimentality. Sakimori-san would surely tell me to get on with my work.”
She smiled, knowing he would laugh about it as a memory once all the work was done, and unleashed the primordial power.
[Fairies, arise.]
Shizuku’s body shone brightly. Golden particles enveloped the surroundings, covering the massive space fortress.
Shizuku understood. She felt the souls of the dead fairies. Those who had died in the battle against the dungeons and been absorbed, excluding the fairy machines that had been with Sakimori.
Golden particles rained down on the stadium. The golden light took shape, transforming into the forms of young girls. Shizuku gently pressed their souls into their new bodies.
“Wha—? What’s this?”
“I thought I was dead?”
The fairies looked at their revived bodies in shock and confusion. As they began to stir in chaos, Shizuku spoke to them through telepathy.
[Calm down, calm down. I am the divine fairy, Amano Shizuku. Calm down.]
The fairies, in their confusion, jumped in surprise. Some even fell to the ground in shock.
[Huh? Was my introduction not clear enough?]
[Ah! It’s Pixie! She looks so divine!]
[Pixie’s telepathy feels so powerful!]
[She’s shining! Did she go bald?]
Recognizing Shizuku, the fairies who had fallen over got back up and rushed toward her. Truly, they were fairies through and through. Even if she seemed divine, once they realized it was her, they stopped being afraid.
[I’m not bald! Look at this divine light. I’ve become a god. A god. My name is God.]
[She’s speaking weird English!]
[She sounds silly, but it’s definitely Pixie!]
[Long time no see. What happened?]
As the fairies gathered around her, Shizuku puffed out her chest and declared her godhood. She didn’t want to be treated like tissue paper.
She tilted her head, wondering if erasing the administrator privileges had been a mistake.
