Mountain Internet Saintess – Chapter 12

“Yahallo~★ Mika-rin!”

The Demi-Goddess jumped up and hugged me tightly.

Her appearance seemed to be around fifteen years old. With golden hair and blue eyes, she was undeniably a beautiful girl. Her round face and petite stature made her look like an ordinary high school student, or perhaps even a middle schooler, but she had magnificent, pure white wings sprouting from her back.

“Nice to meet you, Mika-rin! I’m a God, you know! But you already know that, right? We’re friends after all!”

The Demi-Goddess spoke with boundless energy. She was incredibly familiar, making me wonder if she was really a deity.

“Oh, I see you’re doubting whether I’m a real God, huh? I can tell!”

She must have been reading my thoughts; indeed, she seemed godlike.

“Nice to meet you, I’m Nagano Mika.”

Since this was our first time meeting face-to-face, I made sure to greet her properly.

“Such good manners! My fondness for you just keeps growing!”

Her excitement was off the charts…

“So, what brings you here, God?”
“Just call me Demi-Goddess as usual! And you don’t need to use honorifics either!”

“…So, what did you come here for?”
“Well, I wanted to properly apologize to you.”

Now that she mentioned it, I had indeed suffered for three years working at the Black Court because of her, and then I was unjustly exiled.

“I’m sorry, Mika-rin. I made you go through a tough time.”

Suddenly, the Demi-Goddess turned serious and bowed her head. Well, it wouldn’t be very mature of me to yell or complain at this point.

“It’s fine, I don’t mind anymore. Besides, I got the Log House and a bunch of other things.”
“Mika-rin, you’re so kind! Thank you! I love you!”

The Demi-Goddess clung to my waist.

After a moment, we sat across from each other at the kotatsu.

“I feel bad for Mother Fenrir. I scared her.”

Felmaa was currently holed up in the tent outside with the Puppy Fenrirs.

She had been frightened the moment she laid eyes on the Demi-Goddess.

“Why was Felmaa so intimidated by you?”
“I’m a God, you know? The top of this world! In terms of hierarchy, I’m above the Saint!”

It seemed that in this world, the hierarchy was as follows:
God > Saint > Monsters. I see…

“Oh, but Mika-rin, you don’t need to worry about hierarchies. I want to be friends with you!”

Still, I hadn’t known the Goddess for long, so being called friends felt a bit premature.

“Alright! Now, let me show you my apology and a little gift!”

The Demi-Goddess plunged her hand into the empty air. She placed three glass orbs on the kotatsu table.

“What are these glass orbs?”
“These are Skill Orbs!”

“What are Skill Orbs?”
“They’re special items that grant skills to others! They’re precious items that only exist in the realm of the Gods… the Heavenly Realm!”

So, they were incredibly rare items that weren’t available in this world.

“I brought three just for you, Mika-rin! You can have them all!”
“Is that really okay?”

“Of course! Now, let me explain what skills each one contains!”

  • Item Box
    → Stores objects in a different dimension. Unlimited storage capacity.
  • All Magic Aptitude
    → Allows the user to learn all forms of magic.
  • Appraisal
    → Enables the user to read the information of objects.

These were all convenient skills often seen in web novels. I gratefully accepted them.

I picked up the orbs. In an instant, they transformed into light and entered my body.

I must have acquired the skills now.

“Without Appraisal, it must have been inconvenient for you until now, right?”
“Eh, not really. I had the Internet.”

“Huh? What do you mean?”

“I could check my status with the Internet skill.”

“……………………..Huh?”

The Demi-Goddess’s previously carefree demeanor shifted to a serious expression.

“There’s no function to view status with the [Internet] skill.”

“Eh, but it showed up when I searched for it. I thought you had granted me the power to evolve the Internet skill.”

“No… all I did was install a God App on your smartphone.”

“………………Wait, really?”
“………………Yes, really.”

It seemed an unexpected situation was unfolding.

“「Appraisal!」”

Both the Demi-Goddess and I activated the Appraisal skill simultaneously.

“W-What is this!?”

An outrageous status appeared before me. Wait, first of all, I’m not even human? And my level is 9999? Where do I even begin to process this?

Meanwhile, the Demi-Goddess hung her head in silence, beads of sweat forming on her forehead.

“……………………..Oh no.”

In a small, almost inaudible voice, the Demi-Goddess muttered.

“…………Nagano Mika-san, I have a request.”

Why the sudden formality…?

The Demi-Goddess spread her wings and took flight. With a loud crash, she landed on the ground and prostrated herself.

“Could you please keep the existence of the [Omniscience] skill a secret?!”

The Demi-Goddess was bowing deeply, her hands clasped together in supplication.

“W-What is this Omniscience skill, anyway?”
“It’s a divine skill that allows one to view all unhidden information in this world and perform any action.”

“Y-You mean to say I can know everything and do anything…?”

W-What is that…?

“It’s a skill that should not exist on the surface.”

“Eh, but… I have it.”
“Well, um… it’s a bit of an unexpected situation.”

“Unexpected?”
“Yes… It seems that you possess the potential equivalent to a God, Mika-sama.”

The Demi-Goddess explained with a serious demeanor.

“It appears that within the vast vessel that is you, the Internet skill, the magic of the Dragon Vein, and… the God App have combined to create the [Omniscience (Internet)] skill, a divine skill.”

So, in other words… I had evolved the Internet into an incredible skill called Omniscience?

“Unbelievable… A mere human has created a divine skill…”
“Um… is this a problem?”

“Yes, it’s a huge problem. A massive problem. Mainly for myself.”
“Wait, for you?”

“Yes… Because of the power I granted you, you now possess a divine power that you shouldn’t have.”

…Well, it was true that I had awakened thanks to the power she had given me.

“Mika-sama! Could you please keep the fact that you possess Omniscience a secret?”

“Who should I keep it a secret from?”
“From the higher Gods…”

“Wait, there are hierarchies among Gods…?”
“Yes…”

It seemed the Demi-Goddess was in quite a pinch. If I kept quiet, she wouldn’t get scolded by the higher-ups… right?

“Does that mean I shouldn’t use the Internet?”
“No, using it is fine. Managing this world and you is my responsibility.”

“So, I just need to keep quiet about this to the higher Gods, and I can continue using my skills as usual?”
“Exactly.”

…What should I do? Well, I don’t really enjoy bullying small children.

It seemed I only needed to stay silent…

“Alright, I’ll keep quiet.”

With a bright smile, the Demi-Goddess exclaimed…

“Thank you so much~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!”

She prostrated herself completely. The dignity of a God was nowhere to be found…

“S-Spectacular… Saintess.”
“Oh, Felmaa.”

From the window, Felmaa and the Puppy Fenrirs were watching us. Felmaa’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

“To think that a human could make a God submit! This is unprecedented!”
“Submit…?”

The Demi-Goddess was bowing before me… From an outsider’s perspective, it certainly looked like I had made a God submit…

“Thank you so much!”
“Yes, yes…”

“I’ll do anything to repay you! Is there anything you want or anything you want me to do?!”

I didn’t particularly have anything in mind, but it seemed I needed to say something for her to leave…

“Then, how about a hot spring?”
“A hot spring, you say?”

“Yeah. If there’s an outdoor bath or something…”

Snap!
Splashhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

“S-Saintess! Water is gushing out from the direction of the forest!”

【★☆I have an important request☆★】

If you found this even a little bit interesting,
“That sounds fun!”
“I want to know what happens next!”
“I’m excited to see how the divine power will be used!”

I would be grateful if you could give points from the 【☆☆☆☆☆】 below the advertisement!

The number of stars is up to your judgment,
But if you give me ★5, it would greatly boost my motivation and be the best support!

I sincerely ask for your cooperation!
