Returned from Another World, Earth Turned Out to Be Quite the Fantasy Too. Also, Losing Heroines, Stop Looking This Way. - V2 Chapter 70

Chapter 70: “There Must Be a Reason” ②

“The Goddess of Love was born in the modern era.”

“A god born in the modern era?”

“Mammon mammon. Unlike ancient gods and demons like us, she’s a god born from human emotions in a modernized society, though different from us.”

“Hmm, I don’t really get it.”

It was hard to understand the concept of a god born in the modern era.

After all, even for well-known entities like Mammon, Satan, Lucifer, Michael, and even Amaterasu-Omikami, it’s not common knowledge when and where they were born.

In that sense, whether the Goddess of Love was born in the modern era or the ancient past didn’t really make a big difference to Natsuki.

“You don’t need to worry about when gods were born. Mammon mammon. Their existence might be annoying to us, but they aren’t necessarily bad for humans.”

“Is that so?”

“Mammon mammon. There are other gods and demons born in the modern era besides the Goddess of Love. They’ve teamed up, planning to destroy the ancient gods and demons.”

“So, you’re saying not just Mammon, but they’re plotting against Satan-san, Amaterasu-san, and others too, right?”

“That’s right, mammon mammon.”

However, Mammon added something more.

“There are even some gods and demons siding with the gods of the modern era. It’s regrettable, mammon mammon.”

“Why?”

“The gods of the modern era are trying to create a new mythology. Those who couldn’t shine in the old myths or couldn’t stand being the villains have joined them, hoping to achieve the roles they envision for themselves. Mammon mammon.”

“Wow, that’s lame!”

Exactly, Mammon agreed.

“Such individuals exist among both gods and demons, huh? Not like, ‘Let’s create our own mythology,’ but more like, ‘Let me have a part in creating this new mythology’… I kinda don’t like it.”

“You’re quite critical, mammon mammon. Well, some join because they find it interesting, while others join to fight and defeat the enemies they lost to before, aiming to win this time.”

“So why would such a modern god give power to someone like Yuto?”

That was the biggest question. 

When and where did she contact him, why did she give him power again?

Natsuki couldn’t understand.

“I don’t know that much. Sorry, mammon mammon. But if it’s just the Goddess of Love, then probably…”

“Do you have an idea?”

“Mammon mammon. The Goddess of Love is—searching for her own hero.”

At least, for the Goddess of Love, Yuto Miyahara probably wasn’t her hero. 

While she granted him power comparable to a hero, what she was looking for remains unknown, but anyway, it feels like she did something unnecessary.

“Lucifer knows more about the modern gods than I do. If you get a chance, you should ask him. I was just cooperating with them because our interests aligned. Sorry about that, mammon mammon.”

“Don’t worry about it. It’s enough information for me. Mammon mammon.”

“Mammon mammon.”

“Mammon mammon.”

〜〜Afterword〜〜

That’s the end of the complicated talk!

Next time, we’ll switch to a lighter mood!

Koume, who was eavesdropping, said, 

“―Natsuki is resonating with him!?”
