(MC POV)
I'm not sure what I expected when I decided to go find the gods of this world, but I was certainly not expecting to see a giant grass plain that stretched as far as the eye could see appear in front of me when I teleported to the God Plane of this World.
Right now it's just Sylphy, Iris and I in this entire open plain. Xun Guan hasn't returned from having fun with Feng boy yet so the clothes I'm wearing were just a split clone of herself.
"This is the God Plane?" I asked no one in particular.
"For the current World we are in, All Creator!" Sylphy answered me merrily.
"Right… This might be a little bit too late for me to ask but… What are the gods like in this World?"
Sylphy tilted her head at me, "Does All Creator mean all the gods of this World or just the Administrator Gods of this World?"
…
Omniscience?
…
Ah, I see.
A World can have hundreds of gods in charge of various aspects of it. But usually there would only be one or maybe a small group who are the overall in charge. Those gods were known as the 'Administrator Gods' and they would have the largest influence over how the World is managed amongst the gods of that World.
Sort of like the branch managers of a company I suppose.
"The Administrator Gods," I clarified.
I could ask omniscience about it but hearing about them from someone who worked with them should be more comprehensive.
Sylphy tapped her chin with a finer, "Unn… Where should I begin… Umm… There's three Administrator Gods here, the first is the God of Life, Anul. He sleeps most of the time and doesn't really talk much. I guess you can liken him to those people called 'shut-ins'."
"Eh? Doesn't that mean he's not doing his duties?"
"Well… Anul does his work when he needs to so it's still fine. It's just that managing all of life within a World is still tiring, God or not."
"I see… And the other two?"
"The second is the Goddess of Fate, Shea. She's also the quiet type and not really that sociable either. At least that's what she'll look like. But she's a schemer, that one."
I held up my hand, "Wasn't the Goddess of Fate Muenia?"
Sylphy smiled, "Goddess Muenia is the Supreme Goddess of Fate, All Creator. Shea is a World Goddess of Fate. Erm… I guess you can see it as Goddess Shea is one of Supreme Goddess Muenia's subordinates."
I nodded, "I see, I see… And what do you mean by her being a 'schemer'?"
Sylphy pouted, "She'll pretend to be all innocent and then steal your sweets…"
…
Let's move on...
"Ok… What about the last one?"
"Lastly… Umm… It's me…" Sylphy admitted, poking her fingers together shyly.
Ah… She did bring other people over to this world so I guess it would be natural to assume that Sylphy was occupying a rather high position.
But still for this World's Administrator Gods… We have a God of Life, a Goddess of Fate and then all of a sudden, we have a Goddess of Air Currents.
You can put this lineup anywhere and most likely everyone can tell you one is not like the others. Oh well, who am I to argue? If I checked, I was probably the one who set this lineup in the first place anyway even if I don't remember it, so let's just forget about it.
"Alright… So where are the other two?"
"Right this way, All Creator," Sylphy gestured to a seemingly random direction before leading the way.
I followed behind her, trusting her since this should have been her original home.
We walked silently for a short distance before the scenery around us changed abruptly.
The grasslands in front of us suddenly switched to the interior of a marble temple.
I looked behind us to see a giant, open doorway that led out to the grasslands that we had been in moments before. I guess this place was supposed to be invisible when you're standing outside or something? Omniscience, explain please?
…
To prevent intruders huh? Just in case there were some really ambitious mortals who broke into the God Plane, they would be stuck wandering in that infinite space forever. Only gods can move out of that grass plain and into places like these.
Cool I guess. But I think it's a bit pointless...
Leaving such thoughts behind, I looked down to see two figures kneeling with their heads pressed into the ground in front of me, no doubt the two Administrator Gods Sylphy was talking about just now.
"God of Life Anul and Goddess of Fate Shea?" I asked.
""Yes! We greet the great All Creator!!"" Both of them shouted out in unison, keeping their head pressed on the ground.
"Umu… Both of you may rise."
""Thank you for your benevolence!!""
The two of them stood up, allowing me to look at them properly.
Honestly speaking, if I met both of them on the streets, I wouldn't have been able to guess either of them were gods. They look really normal aside from the fact that they were radiating a divine aura of course.
Hmm… Maybe this is just because my views are skewed because of spending all this time with my disciples. I mean Iris herself is the literal personification of physical perfection, nothing else can even come close to comparing her in terms of beauty.
Yeah, that's probably why.
I cleared my throat, "Hello, no need to be so tense, I'm just here to give you guys a courtesy visit and to reinstate Sylphy here back to her original position since her Fall was… Err… A mistake."
The other two gods turned their gaze to look at the smug Sylphy with a look that told me they were absolutely jealous of her.
I pretended not to notice that and continued, "Anyway. I just want to let you guys know I'm currently staying in your world and you don't need to do anything different. In fact, just proceed as if I'm not here. Of course if any problem arises because of me, just go ahead and tell me about it, no need to consider my position."
Shea gave me a hesitant look, "Is… Is such a thing alright, All Creator?"
I nodded, "Of course, I placed you guys in charge of this world did I not? Then you should be doing what's best for it, even if it means telling me off for something I'm not supposed to be doing."
Anul gasped, "We would never, All Creator! Such rudeness will never be allowed!"
I waved my hand, "I allow it. You can just let Sylphy here talk to me about anything that comes up. No need to worry about punishment or anything like that, alright?"
I could tell that Sylphy's smugness rose a few more levels after hearing my words but I ignored it. I already got the feeling that talking to her was easier than talking with these two already.
"If that is what All Creator has decreed, we will obey," The two of them bowed.
Alright, now I just need to give Sylphy back her divinity and the courtesy visit would also be over and done.
I've only been here awhile and I want to go home already.. Trying to act like the Origin they believe me to be is surprisingly tiring.
