I'm the Only One With a Different Genre - Chapter 225
Chapter 225
Never leave a comment
***
Lian instinctively knew that Elensia had become an angel. As Lian was struck by an inexplicable certainty, the Gag God kindly began to explain the reason step by step.
“Wow, you learned ten things without being taught even one.”
The Gag God clapped exaggeratedly, expressing admiration. Lian, with a blank face, belatedly opened his mouth.
“So -… you’re saying I’ve become the god of this world?”
“Simply put, yes!”
The Dark Fantasy World God was weakened but ‘existed.’ As long as the god existed, the world could somehow continue to breathe. When Lian devoured such a god deliciously, the world began to collapse.
It was as if the world had started accelerating towards destruction. The will of the world, in its frantic effort to stop this, realized that the boundary between life and death was being destroyed by something and was startled into action.
Just as it was about to stop Lian in a panic, it realized that Lian was an existence with immense power and divine status, and immediately halted its attack.
Only a god could break the boundary between life and death. And only a god who created and nurtured the world could do so. Lian breaking the boundary was akin to destroying a part of the completed world.
At this point, Lian seemed no different from an evil god appearing to hasten the world’s destruction, but fortunately, Lian had the purpose of wanting to save Elensia.
To save her, a new body would be needed, and Lian would instinctively ‘create’ her body.
Creating an angel and breaking the boundary between life and death, which only a god can erase? It was akin to shouting, ‘I’ll be the god here!’
The will of the world prayed for Lian to cross the gate of life with her and threw its last gamble, which succeeded!
Lian, with a face like a Korean who thought water was free abroad but later saw the bill with the water charge, spoke urgently.
“I can’t even accept that I’m a god… do you expect me to easily believe I’ve become the god of the Dark Fantasy World?!”
“Oh my… after creating an angel, are you saying you’ll abandon her now?”
She dramatically collapsed to her side, covering her mouth as if she were a tragic heroine. Lian felt another dizzying vertigo.
“Well, getting angry now won’t change anything! Let’s work hard to nurture the world! Go for it!”
“Go for it, what?!”
“Huh? You don’t like it? If you don’t want to, you don’t have to do it.”
“What?”
Saying nothing would change and now saying it doesn’t have to be done left Lian momentarily at a loss for words. She shrugged her shoulders and said,
“You can pass it on to another god and return to your original world. Of course, you’d have to return the angel and never approach this world again!”
There was only one main god in a world. While smaller gods could exist beneath them, Lian’s status was too high, allowing only the role of ‘main god.’
‘If not for that, I would have kidnapped… I mean, taken her back to my world. What a shame.’
The Gag God clicked her tongue inwardly and continued.
“So, are you going to give up on this world? Even if it might become a more terrible and cruel world? Even if you can never meet the person you love again?”
“Just… let me hit you once. Come here.”
Becoming the god of the Dark Fantasy World and Elensia becoming an angel was understandable. Having experienced even more bizarre things in the Gag World, Lian didn’t despair or become flustered over such matters.
‘That mouth!’
What infuriated Lian was the Gag God’s taunting mouth. At some point, she had donned cat ears and a fancy maid outfit and started meowing, “Meow? Meow?”
Lian really wanted to hit her just once.
Knowing he could never hit her, Lian swung his fist towards her head. Expecting to hear lines like “Meow! It’s just an afterimage!” he gritted his teeth.
“Ouch!”
“..?”
His fist struck her head. Lian looked down at his fist with a more surprised face than anyone else. The Gag God covered the area she was hit with both hands, tears welling up in her eyes.
“Oppose violence! Oppose violence!”
She even brought out a wooden sign with ‘Oppose Violence’ written on it and shook it. Lian blankly alternated between looking at his fist and her.
“This is… huh?”
Lian soon realized. He could now directly hit the Gag God because they had become equals in status!
“Oh…”
Lian willingly accepted the fact that he was a god at that moment.
‘How long has it been…’
The memories of being toyed with by her terrible pranks vividly came to mind. Lian looked at the Gag God, who was stepping back with clenched fists.
‘It’s time for revenge…’
“Uh… huh? Why are you coming closer? Don’t come near me! Eek! Run… ack!”
Lian instinctively used divine power to move behind her as if teleporting. Her swaying tail was mercilessly grabbed by Lian’s hand and puffed up with a pop.
“You should be… punished, right?”
When Lian smiled menacingly, the Gag God drooped her ears and made a pitiful cat face.
The anger… didn’t subside!
“Eek! Aaah!!”
A faint scream echoed.
***
‘I thought he’d be angry about being forcibly turned from human to god… sniff…’
The Gag God, who had been hit about a hundred times, sniffled and rolled on the floor. Lian let out a long sigh, rotating his wrist. Though his anger hadn’t fully dissipated, he felt a bit relieved.
The Gag God, in a pose like a cat stretching with its bottom raised, looked back at Lian and said.
“Geez, isn’t this when you usually hit the bottom?”
“You think like that because you watch weird anime.”
“Gah…!”
Lian’s attack was… formidable!
The Gag God collapsed on the spot. Only after she closed her mouth did Lian feel his scattered mind snapping back into place.
‘Ah, talking with the Gag God is like being in a state similar to using gag power.’
Baby clothes? That’s strange. Wings or halo? Those were indeed reasons to be angry. But they weren’t the top priority.
As soon as he regained his senses, he should have checked Elensia’s condition instead of getting angry at the Gag God, and he should have checked the condition of the other companions first.
Such obvious things were pushed back, and he ended up just playing pranks like when he stayed in the Gag World.
Lian realized anew how terrifying the power of a god could be.
“..! Elensia!”
As soon as he regained his sanity, he turned his gaze to Elensia, who had become an angel. She was standing quietly five steps away from Lian.
Compared to when she had rushed at him as soon as she saw him in the black space, she was very calm. Could it be that her personality had vanished when she became an angel? Such a worry arose.
But seeing the clear emotions in her eyes, he felt relieved. Elensia was still herself, even as an angel.
“But why…”
Was she not coming closer?
To Lian’s question, the Gag God, who was sprawled on the floor, crawled over and spoke in a dying voice.
“That’s… cough, because you haven’t given permission. An angel can’t move at will without the god’s command… ah… gah…”
After saying that, she vomited blood. With blood-stained fingers, she wrote ‘The culprit is… Li…’ on the white floor before collapsing.
Lian coldly ignored her and approached Elensia. As he looked into her eyes, she shyly lowered her gaze.
“Elensia, look at me.”
“…”
As soon as Lian gave permission, she immediately looked up at him. Reverence and love overflowed in her eyes.
“You don’t need my permission for anything. Feel free to move as you wish, Elensia.”
As soon as he granted all permissions, she eagerly embraced Lian. Her emotions were so intense that her wings spread wide and trembled.
“When I opened my eyes… you weren’t there, Lian…”
Since this was the Gag God’s domain, it was impossible for her, even as an angel, to approach without the Gag God’s permission. She had woken up in the heavenly realm created by the (former) Dark Fantasy World God and had wandered endlessly searching for Lian.
Just when she was about to despair after wandering for a long time in a place that was like ruins, the Gag God had summoned her.
“I was scared… that I might never meet you…”
Lian embraced her gently and comforted her for a long time.
Once Elensia was somewhat calmed, the Gag God suddenly stood up and clenched her fist.
“Now, it’s time to start creating paradise, meow! A god should at least have a temple in paradise, meow! I need at least five rooms, meow!”
“Why would there be a room for you in my paradise?”
“What?! Are you abandoning a friend after succeeding?! I made you a god and even brought the angel, huh?!”
Knowing that arguing with the Gag God wouldn’t lead to any answers, he just kept his mouth shut.
‘I should place her as far away from my home as possible.’
Since he had to live as the god of this world, the help of an experienced one(?) was essential, so he had no choice but to discard the option of expelling her.
Thus, Lian’s life as a god began.
“Wait a minute! What about the others? Are they all alive and well?”
“Huh? That’s for the next chapter?”
“What are you talking about!”
The Gag God’s power was overwhelming, and she could even break the fourth wall. She squinted her eyes and looked down. Perhaps tonight, someone who left a comment might be kidnapped to the Gag World.
Offering comfort to the new victim.
