After dinner, I had a bath and was about to go to sleep when…

“Finally! My house arrest is over! I can finally taste delicious desserts from another world again~~ Uugaaahhhh… Waaaaaahhh…..”

“Toners and creams! Toners and creams! Give me my toners and creams now!! I beg of you!!!”

“Please, b- beer, a- a beer…”

“…cakes… ice-cream…”

“Wh-whiskey… ugh, gimme whiskey…”

“A-any liquor will do… no, I change my mind… whiskey. Gimme whiskeyyyy…”

A scrambling of voices echoed around my head… [1] It was… very chaotic.

“C-calm down everyone. I’m listening, so please calm down.”

As soon as I said that, a storm of apologies erupted.

“Uwaaaahhhh!!! I’m sorrryyyyy!!! I’ll never trouble you ever againnnnn!!! Please don’t take away my sole pleasure in liiiiffffee!!!”

“Apologies. Apologies. I shall never breathe another selfish word in my life, so please, please, my beauty products! [8]”

[8]

“Sorry! Sorry for troubling you that week. I regret it. I regret it so much. So, please, give me a beer!”

“I too have been overly demanding. I deeply regretted my actions. Therefore, please let me have the cakes and ice-creams once again.”

[8]

“Sorry for pressuring you when you’re suffering!”

“Sorry for demanding more things!”

“Sorry for not being considerate, but liquor from your world is too delicious!”

“Yes! Especially the whiskey and- sorry for being crazy over it and forcing you to stay awake when you’re tired.”

“Yes! Sorry for not being considerate!”

“We’re sorry for being demanding but give us whiskey, please!!”

[8]

Well, looks like the house arrest had quite a big impact on these gods and goddesses.

Look at them crying out their desperation…

It was kind of off-putting.

Ninril-sama sounded like she was literally in tears…

It took me some time to calm all these gods and goddesses down and listen to stories of how they had suffered during their house arrest. [5] [8]

“Demiurgos-sama told us that if we demand too much from you, we won’t get to receive your offerings of desserts anymore.” [5]

“Mukouda-san has a great and generous heart and had always been willing to listen to our selfish demands and even advises us on what type of soaps and creams to buy…” [5]

“I can’t think what would happen if I can’t get other world stuff anymore. My beer!”

“…I shall be very sad if I cannot have cakes or ice-cream anymore. I want to have more…” [5]

“Ou, that one month house arrest was a taste of eternity I never wish for.”

“It’s like being cut off from the water of life called whiskey [5].” [5] [8] “…ahem,” I cleared my throat. “Everyone, it’s good that you have reflected on yourself as Demiurgos-sama intended. I shall say this first, so long as the demand is not too excessive, I have no problem entertaining it.”

A loud cheer rang in my ears.

Ninril-sama’s high pitched voice rose above the rest. [5]

“However, I must admit that having to make offerings each week is quite burdensome for me. If possible, I’d like to propose making offerings once a month…”

“Of course, of course, that’s fine with us. That’s fine, right? Everyone?” Kishar-sama’s voice hardened at the end.

[6] I’m not sure what the other gods or goddesses thought but no one protested against this. Not verbally at least.

[8] Hearing no objections, I said, “Naturally, since it’s once a month, each god and goddess shall have a budget of 4 gold coins. Is that alright?”

[8] “Yes, yes, it’s the same as 1 gold per week anyway. It’s just having all four weeks’ worth of budget in one go.” [5] [8] “One other thing,” I added. “You get to choose the theme or category of your offerings, but I pick out the items in my free time.”

[8] “Eh?”

[8] “In other words, if Ninril-sama wants cakes and snacks, I shall choose the cakes and snacks without having to go through the list of items on [Net Super] with her before checking the item into the shopping cart.” It would take too long to make mini private consultations with all six gods and goddesses, especially the liquor loving pair and Ninril-sama.

[8] “Oooh, I see. Yes, yes, that’s fine too.”

[8] “Right, I shall take your orders now.”

[4]

“Desserts and dorayaki! The more the better!”

“I’d like to have shampoo, hair treatment, body soap, toner and cream from that brand.”

“Beer, I leave everything else to you.”

“…cake and ice-cream…”

“Whiskey!”

“Yup! As for the brand, we leave that to you.”

[4] [6] “Right, right, the usual,” I muttered to myself. “I’ll have everything ready by tomorrow night.”

“Yeahh…”

Perhaps it’s because they sounded oddly subdued? Anyway, I felt compelled to ask, “By the way, what happened to the, ah, offerings confiscated by Demiurgos-sama?”

“Oh, that…”

[4] “It had been dispersed among the other lesser gods and goddesses on the divine mountain by Demiurgos-sama and his followers…”

“Yeah…”

“Sad…”

“… …” now I felt really sorry for them.

Well, this might be me spoiling them or being a chump but I decided to buy all the special 1 gold or more ‘bonus offerings’ that they had more or less coerced out of me last time. [1] Naturally, I can’t remember what everyone ordered, but all I have to do was look up [Net Super]’s history section and scroll to the appropriate date and check all the items into the shopping cart.

[6] A couple of minutes later, a bunch of cardboard boxes appeared and I set up everything cardboard box offering table. Ninril-sama’s huge cake took up a whole box on its own.

“Hey, uh, please note that this is only a one-time thing, okay? I’m going to offer you the 1 gold or more special bonus offering that was confiscated last time. Anyway, here you go.”

There was a screech of:

[8]

“Oh my gosh, you’re a great guyyyy!!! Uwaaaannnn!!!”

“Mukouda-sama is truly a man of great generosity and benevolence.”

“Cool guy! Thank you!”

“…many thanks…”

“You’re so great! So awesome! So much thanks! If you ever encounter any problem, call upon me anytime!”

“Yeah, same here, call us! I’ll take up swords against your enemies! I shall twist their arms off if they dare lay a single finger on you!”

[8]

Yes, yes.

Everyone was getting emotional again. Although, I would have liked to unhear that last remark…

“Then, I shall see you tomorrow night.”

Just like that, communication lines with the Divine was turned off.

“Phew, I guess that’s it for now. Looks like Demiurgos-sama’s treatment worked quite well. Once a month is a great compromise.”

Right, time for bed.

Just as I entered the master bedroom, another matter occurred to me.

“Since I fought so much today, should I check what my status is like?”

[8] A yawn interrupted me and I decided to get into bed first before quietly chanting [Status Check] and study the floating blue screen before me.

Oh my, looks like my level has gone up considerably.

My levelling up pace had not decreased even after a visit to the dungeon. [2] Though I had only defeated a few Orcs, my level had still risen. That was probably due to the Double XP Earned skill.

Even so, Level 77 was quite incredible.

I have almost reached Level 80 where I could unlock a third tenant shop.

Well, it’s not like I did it purposefully though.

Hmm, I wonder what kind of tenant shop they’ll let me choose next?

I’m kind of curious now.

Well, once it comes, it comes.

Well, when the time comes, I’ll think about it.

“Fuahh, time to get some sleep”

I closed my eyes and let myself drift off to sleep.

[Gumihou: Oh my, those poor gods and goddesses. Mukouda is still soft-hearted enough to let them have their ‘special bonus offering’, lol]
