Shin Sang Legend
Explanation of the Goddess
In the center of the temple, a familiar and beautiful figure was imprinted in Shin's eyes.
“Goddess!?”
Shin opened his eyes wide.
Indeed, Shin once again returned to the temple where he had first been summoned.
“Although it has been ten days since we last met, but compared to before, you seem to be already comfortable with this world.”
Looking at Shin who was still looking at her foolishly, the beautiful goddess spoke in a way that was unclear whether she was praising or teasing him.
A charming voice that seemed to be able to sing a song that was remembered for centuries entered Shin's ears. He was stupid for an unknown time.
However, the reason for that was not at all because Shin was enchanted by the beautiful goddess.
Shin could not find the right words.
How else.
“...... Why am I here again?”
There's no way he's dead anymore, is he?
As Shin thought that, the goddess smiled as if she was looking into Shin's mind.
“Don't think too much about it. You didn't come back here because you died. ” The goddess said so, “You can check it yourself. This time, you were summoned by me with your body.”
As the goddess said, Shin finally realized the truth.
Indeed, it was different from the last time he was summoned here. This time, Shin did not appear only as a spirit, but rather along with his body. His feet were also firmly planted on the ground unlike last time, where he was floating in the air.
In other words…
“So I was called when I was alive this time?”
Shin looked at the goddess in front of him.
“True.” The goddess nodded, “I see that you finally left the demon beast forest, entered the human city, and became an adventurer. Since you finally settled into this world, I called you here to say hello. ”
What a selfish motive. Shin really wanted to say something like, if he wanted so badly to enter the human city and settle down well, then don't throw him into a forest filled with demonic beasts from the very beginning.
This thought once again brought the goddess's answer.
“If I don't throw you into the forest from the start, then you won't be able to level up, nor will you be able to learn so many skills, right?” The goddess spoke with a faint smile, “If you don't know your own uniqueness, then how can you discover so quickly the way you became a Hero?”
Shien's face grimly heard that explanation.
That is, for the sake of letting her understand its uniqueness, this goddess deliberately threw it into a forest filled with demonic beasts rather than a human city?
That lady. Was he not afraid that he might be eaten by a demonic beast?
“Of course not.” The goddess confidently spoke, “With the protection of the Holy Sword, you will probably be fine even if I throw you into the Devil World, you are, let alone a forest where demonic beasts only reached level 50 at the highest level.”
Hearing that, Shin finally could not hold back anymore.
Shin said “Miss goddess, you didn't read my mind right? Why do you know everything I think?” Shin objected, “Also, don't act like it has nothing to do with you. That's something you made, isn't it?”
Be it the Holy Sword or the various skills, weren't all the things the goddess gave him?
As Shien thought, the goddess corrected him.
“No, that's where you're wrong.” The goddess said, “Whether it's a Holy Sword or a skill, it's all yours from the beginning. All I do is raise them.”
With those words, Shin stopped.
“Mine?”
Shin had trouble responding.
Seeing that, the goddess began to explain.
“The object known as the Holy Sword is a power born from the concept of “Hero”. That is a special feature that only you otherworlders have the identity of Hero.”
The goddess explained with her beautiful and heartwarming voice.
“Just like how there are people in Omnipotlin who can awaken skills that are only for them, namely unique skills, you Heroes from other worlds also have your own unique skills. Plus, you have other specialties outside of Omnipotlin. Once you are summoned to this world as a Hero, then you will naturally awaken your own Sacred Sword and unique skill. All I did was speed up and directly awaken your Sacred Sword and Unique skills, that's all. ”
If not for that, then why summon a Hero from another world?
If he could freely impart his powerful Holy Sword and unique skills to others, then he would not need to summon otherworldly people to defeat the Demon King from the very beginning. He could only choose a Hero from his own world.
“In the end, since I as a god need to ask others for help to defeat the Demon King, then it proves that I can at least not do it myself, right?” The goddess clearly stated, “If I can freely give the Holy Sword and such powerful unique skills to others, then I might as well defeat the Demon King myself. What do I need a Hero for?”
Such a logical explanation almost left Shin dumbfounded once again.
But, thinking about it, it seems to be quite reasonable, doesn't it?
“In your world, there seems to be an arrangement where the gods cannot freely influence the mortal world, so even when they see the Demon King destroying the world, the, they(gods) could only watch and at most give assistance to humans to let them defeat the Demon King themselves, right?” The goddess spoke as if it was something funny, “Unfortunately, this is unlike the world in myths and legends that you know. Although there are some similarities, this remains a reality, so there is definitely a difference.”
What kind of difference?
“For example, in this world, the gods and demons have hated enemies for thousands of years. They've been at war for a long time.”
The goddess honestly revealed.
“For us, the Demon King is our greatest enemy. If we can destroy them with our own power, then we have done it a long time ago. There's no way we have a rule about not disturbing humans. Instead, the gods often annoy humans and greatly affect the mortal world.
So, in this world, for the life of the mortal world, the gods are objects of belief, but they are not untouchable, but are real existences.
“You already know about blessings right?” The goddess pointed out, “Berkah is the most common type of disturbance we gods make to the life of the mortal world. You also have my own blessings. That's the only thing I give you.”
In addition to the blessings bestowed by the goddess, the other was Shin's own strength.
Be it Holy Swords or unique skills, those were all things attached to Shin himself. They had almost nothing to do with the goddess before him.
In other words…
“Almost all your abnormalities come from yourself. They have nothing to do with me. If I have to put it down using a phrase from your world, it is, don't blame me. ”
Shin did not respond to the words of the goddess.
Seeing how Shin was pensive, the goddess smiled.
“Again, we have time, so let's chat a little about this world.”
With that, the goddess waved her hand and appeared a table, chair and tea.
