Why was the Goddess's life aimed at?

I died while trying to save the Goddess.

And the Goddess told so, in the Divine Realm, that I will be given anything I wanted.

"I want to be able to create any magic that I can imagine in my mind and use it.'"

Yes, I asked for it.

Just before I was transferred to this world, a white-haired old bastard with a shining white sword suddenly appeared behind the Goddess and cut at her from behind.

And I saved you because I couldn't let the old bastard kill you!

So I thought, "Summon the Goddess" using the ability that she gave me.

Because of that old bastard...

"Goddess Athena~ I'll take your divinity! I'll be the next Lord of this world~Wahaha~"

I was so pissed off when he said that!

At that time,

Was it right to summon the Goddess?

I did it in the spur of the moment, so I subconsciously created magic and activated it.

So, was it good? Or was it bad?

Uo~~I don't know~~!

But!

Why was the Goddess standing in front of a convenience store in my world?

It's not normal for a Goddess to be living a human life!

"Yes, you were mumbling something on your own, and I thought you were a strange person."

And I'm the one who's been labelled as a weirdo...

Let's be honest here!

"Are you a stalker?"

I might not be able to recover if she said "Yes"...

But I thought about it and decided to ask her.

"Goddess, I've been wondering about you standing in front of the convenience store in my world... Can you tell me why you were there?"

"Athena."

Huh?

I was asking about you standing in front of the convenience store.

"Athena."

Is "Athena" the reason why she was standing there?

I didn't know what that meant.

"Athena?"

I ask back.

"I am Athena, and I would be happy if you called me Athena."

"Oh, you mean your name is Athena!"

"Come to think of it, you didn't introduce yourself in all that commotion, did you?"

"I'm Rei Yagiri, you can call me Rei."

"So, uh... Why were you standing in front of the convenience store in my world?"

"The world I manage is called Alderia, it's only about 10,000 years old. But a few days ago, the Gods Barus, Jade, Doris and Donias came to visit me..."

"I happened to find the entrance to another world. It's a wonderful world, completely different from this one. It must be difficult for you, Lord Goddess Athena, to manage this world all the time without a break, isn't it?"

"Why don't you take a look at the other world and use it as a reference in this world? While the Lord Goddess Athena is away, we will watch over this world, so there is nothing to worry about. What do you think?"

I received such a proposal.

I was also wondering what to do with this world where people are frightened by the demons, and most of the world was occupied by powerful beasts, so I took that suggestion and visited that world today.

"Ah, so that's why you were standing in front of that convenience store."

"But, why were you about to be killed by the Gods?"

If it was Athena, wouldn't she have been able to repel that level of attack?

A reasonable question~!

After all, Athena is a Lord Goddess!

Shouldn't she be able to easily repel an attack from an ordinary God?"

To my most important question, she answered...

"Only in the Divine Realm can a God's power be wielded freely."

"If I wielded my power as I please on Earth, my divine status as a God will drop and my power will be temporarily sealed."

Speaking of which, I've heard various stories about how, as a God, you're forbidden to interfere directly with the ordinary world.

So, according to Athena...

If you wield your power directly in this world, you lose your Godhood and your power is temporarily sealed, right?

Then~ if one of the gods Barus, Jade, Doris or Donias wielded their power to kill Athena, the one who used the power would be demoted from Godhood and their power would be temporarily sealed, right?

What would be the benefit of doing that?

Violating a taboo, being demoted and having your power temporarily sealed!

I don't think there's any merit for them to take such a risk and aim for Athena's life.

"That's because..."

"That's because you can gain more power than you lost by killing me, a Lord Goddess, and absorbing more power than what was sealed away from you."

"Wow~ that's so harsh~ to go to such lengths to seek power, that's not a God~ they might as well call themselves a demon, right?"

Athena, who wanted to do something about this world, which has turned into a den of magical beasts, took the proposal of the four Gods and came to visit the world I live in, and while she was visiting, one of the Gods, Barus, tried to kill her...

When Athena, who can't interfere with this world due to a taboo, was unable to save herself, I protected her, so I lost my life, and Athena, who was narrowly saved by me, was called back to the God realm of the four Gods who wanted to kill her, and her life was targeted again...

Isn't this dangerous?

It feels like I've interfered with God's plans!

"Hmm, that's right. It's just like you said, Rei."

"Oh shit~~~!"
