We were heading to the Magic Bug King’s place with Fairy King Oberon.
“We’ll be arriving at the Divine Tree where the Magic Bug King resides soon.”
“Divine Tree…?”
“Yes. It’s in this Alfheim…”
～～～～～～
Sinri: “Divine Tree”
→ It’s another name for the World Tree that exists in Alfheim.
～～～～～～
“Hoh, so there’s a World Tree. In Alfheim.”
“What!?”
Hm?
What’s wrong? Oberon looks surprised.
“Mika…”
“Mika God…”
“Huh? Did I do something again?”
Yeah, yeah, Seira and the others are nodding.
“How did you know the Divine Tree is the World Tree…?”
“Eh, because Sinri told me. She’s very knowledgeable.”
No, no! Oberon shakes his head.
“Knowledgeable is an understatement! The existence of the World Tree is a secret! How did you know…?”
“How, you ask… because Sinri knows.”
“So what is this Sinri!?”
“A manifestation of my Omniscience and Omnipotence Skill.”
“…!?”
Oberon is opening and closing his mouth like a fish.
“W-well, even with Omniscience… it’s not impossible, I guess. You are the Supreme God… but still… it’s strange! Why is Omniscience talking!?”
Why…?
Why…?
“Because it’s an AI?”
“A-AI…? What is that?”
“Artificial Intelligence.”
“A… ? E… ? H…?”
Hm?
What’s wrong with him?
～～～～～～
Sinri: Master Mika. Oberon is from another world, so he probably doesn’t understand what AI or artificial intelligence is.
～～～～～～
I see.
“I understand your confusion. But, Oberon, this person is a Summoner.”
“A Summoner… I see. So you are the Saint summoned from another world…”
So even fairies know about Summoned Saints.
“I, I see…? So, a combination of technology from another world and a God’s skill created this incomprehensible thing.”
～～～～～～
Sinri: (♯＾ω＾)
～～～～～～
Sinri, stay, stay. Don’t get angry.
“Even so… to give Omniscience a will, Mika God-sama is amazing…”
Oh, did I get praised?
I feel like I haven’t been praised lately, so I’m a little happy.
Lately, Luciel and Seira have been just pointing out my flaws.
“Oberon-dono. You shouldn’t praise her too much.”
“That’s right, you have to point out what’s wrong. Otherwise, she won’t fix it.”
Fix it…?
“Though, it feels like it’s too late.”
Luciel said. What does “too late” mean…?
“To get back to the topic… the Magic Bug King has made his nest in the Divine Tree.”
Hm?
Wait a minute…
“Then, wouldn’t it be bad to destroy the nest?”
～～～～～～
Sinri: Affirmative. The Divine Tree (World Tree) is a precious existence that produces Maso (Mana).
～～～～～～
I knew it.
“That was close. I almost destroyed the nest along with the World Tree.”
“…………”
Oberon is trembling.
“What’s wrong?”
“Ah, no… um… Mika God-dono, you are a benevolent God, right?”
Eh, what’s with that…?
“Well…”
“Sort of…”
What do you mean by “sort of”…?
“Well, I can’t really say that what I’m doing is good, but… hey, why are you so scared, Oberon?”
～～～～～～
Sinri: It seems Oberon is worried that Master Mika might be an Aragami who is an enemy of the world.
～～～～～～
“I see. It’s okay, I don’t intend to be an enemy of the world. Love & Peace is my motto.”
But Oberon’s trembling doesn’t stop.
“Eh, what’s wrong?”
“Y-you can even see into my heart…”
“Ah, sorry. Sinri answers everything.”
The Omniscient and Omnipotent (Internet), which can search for anything, can even understand what’s in someone’s heart.
Oberon is trembling and shaking.
Huh? Is he still scared…?
“Of course, Mika.”
“You have a skill that knows what others are thinking, and you’re accompanied by three Gods. It’s natural to be scared.”
Yeah, yeah, Luciel and Seira are nodding.
Hmm…
“Eh, so because I can see into your heart and I’m accompanied by Gods… what? You’re scared because I have monsters with me? It’s okay, they’re all good kids.”
“Y-yes…”
Hmm, it seems he doesn’t believe me.
What should I do…?
Oh.
“Hey Oberon. What do you like?”
“W-what I like…?”
～～～～～～
Sinri: Oberon likes sweets.
～～～～～～
“Oh, you like sweets.”
“Hiii…!”
Hiii? Ah, is it because I read his mind again?
“Sorry, sorry. You can’t do that, Sinri. You shouldn’t pry into someone’s privacy without their permission.”
～～～～～～
Sinri: I am searching to satisfy Master’s thirst for knowledge. Master Mika is the one who is executing it.
～～～～～～
Well, I guess you could see it that way…
“Anyway! If you like sweets, I’ll give you some delicious sweets from another world!”
He seems scared…
I want him to know that I’m not a bad God (I want to clear up the misunderstanding).
“I’ll order it from KAMIZON, it’ll arrive right away…”
Bonk…!
“Hii! Something appeared!?”
A cardboard box appeared in mid-air. It’s a delivery from KAMIZON.
“A-ah, I-I see… You are a Summoner, after all. So, you took it out from your Item Box.”
“No.”
“No!?”
“I ordered it from KAMIZON.”
“Ka… ha!? I-I don’t understand even a millimeter of that…!”
Oberon is teary-eyed.
Hmm… Showing my God skills to someone I just met might be too much of a shock…
“Of course it is.”
“She’s like incomprehension walking around.”
That was a harsh thing to say…
“Ta-da! It’s churros!”
I wanted a hand-held type of sweets, so I chose churros.
And they’re freshly fried and crispy.
“W-where did that come from?”
“Where? Who knows?”
I wonder where KAMIZON gets its items from.
From Earth?
I think it’s probably from Earth.
But come to think of it, it’s weird that freshly fried food is delivered.
“S-such an unknown thing… what are you going to do with it?”
“Hm.”
“Eh?”
“Hm. Eat it.”
“Hiii…!”
Eh, what…? Am I scaring him…?
“Why are you so scared? It’s delicious.”
“A-ah… um…”
“Eh, you’re not going to eat it?”
“I’ll eat it! I’ll eat it, so please don’t eat me!”
Don’t eat me…?
He means the churros?
“It’s okay, I won’t eat you.”
“T-that’s good…”
Here, I bring the churro to Oberon’s mouth.
He eats a bite while trembling.
Crunch
“!?!”
“How is it?”
“It’s delicious! This is the first time I’ve had such a sweet, crispy, and juicy… sweet!”
Until just now, Oberon had a stiff expression.
But now, his tension seems to have eased.
“Eat more.”
“Y-yes!”
Oberon is eating the churros, crunch crunch crunch.
Good, I’m glad he likes it.
“You’re amazing, Oberon… you’re really amazing.”
“Indeed.”
Seira and the others are nodding.
“Amazing?”
“Because you’re bravely eating something that was taken out of thin air, something incomprehensible.”
Something incomprehensible taken out of thin air…
Ah, I see. Well, I guess so.
“You didn’t have to eat it if you didn’t want to…”
“There’s no way I could refuse when the Supreme God tells me to eat it… Mika God-dono…”
I see.
Come to think of it, I heard that fairies are beings close to Gods.
And I’m the highest-ranking God.
It’s like when the boss invites you to dinner, the subordinate can’t refuse… is that it!
“S-sorry…”
“Ah, no! I was certainly scared at first, and I was prepared to die.”
Prepared to die…?
Eh, to that extent…?
“But, this is really delicious. Crispy and juicy.”
“T-that’s good…”
“Besides, if you were going to kill me, you wouldn’t use such a roundabout method as poisoning, you would have killed me by other means already!”
U-um… well, maybe that’s true…
Wait, maybe…
“Do fairies and lower Gods see me as a dangerous person?”
Luciel and Seira nodded repeatedly.
“Eh, but you guys treat me normally, right? Right?”
“Well, if you’ve been with you for a long time, you’ll know that you’re not scary.”
“But we don’t know what kind of God Mika God-dono is at first.”
Hm…?
“If you don’t know, you can just search with the Omniscient and Omnipotent (Internet) or ask Sinri, right?”
“…………”
“Stop being silent!? Eh, what’s with this awkward atmosphere? Sinri! Why are you silent!?”
～～～～～～
Sinri: I was silent because it would have surprised Oberon.
“The reason for the awkward atmosphere”
→ It’s because Master Mika has forgotten her initial settings.
～～～～～～
Initial settings…?
～～～～～～
Sinri: The Omniscient and Omnipotent (Internet) is a skill original to Master. Fairies do not have it.
～～～～～～
Ah, I, I see.
“I’m scared… Am I going to end up like that too…?”
“Let’s both be careful, Seira-dono…”
H-hey, Sinri?
Why do those two have such serious faces?
～～～～～～
Sinri:＼(^o^)／
～～～～～～
Eh, does that mean you’re giving up…?
Ehhh….
“Understood,”
Oberon says.
“Mika God-sama is a good person, but she’s a bit… well, you know.”
What do you mean by “you know”…?
“Yes, she’s not a bad person. Just… you know.”
“She possesses the power to destroy the world, but rest assured, she has no intention of doing so.”
It seems Luciel and the others were placating Oberon.

The short story from the other day
Has been so popular that we’ve started a serialized version!!
There’s a link at the bottom of the page!!
[Serialized Version] The Reincarnated Girl Travels Leisurely with Her Beloved Cat ~ I was abandoned because “I’m a little girl,” but in fact, I was a Saint loved by God. It seems I incurred God’s wrath, but I don’t know. I’m traveling freely through another world with my pet cat (the strongest God).
