The End
When I noticed, I was in a place with nothing
“Good work~”
That god is before my eyes
(……I see, so that world was destroyed)
It was too abrupt
It’s shaking……the moment I thought so, I blacked out
At the time I didn’t know whether something was happening
I also did not hear a scream
Everyone, they were probably all annihilated together with planet’s destruction
Within my arms, naturally Rune is not there
Since the only warning was shaking, everyone probably disappeared without much fear
A disappointing, abrupt end
Even if I was told it was a dream, it was to the point I would completely believe it
==
(Everyone, died, huh…..)
Since I don’t see their corpses, it will take time before I can feel it’s real
“You, are you alright~? You’re different from usual?”
Before my eyes, the god waves his hand back and forth
Certainly, the current me is not like me
Although I was often absentminded, now it’s not to the same as before
Being bewildered by the feeling of loss……is it
Since I have no sense of having died, of Rune not being here, I can’t bear it
Even though I also died
The demon god called Shirikaviris, even though he no longer exists in any world
==
“……as expected, it seems you lived too long this time, huh”
At the god’s words, I realized my strangeness
My vision distorted
Since the place is completely white, I wasn’t able to notice the distortion
(I, am I crying…..)
I who to that extent never cried, to shed tears just because Rune’s not there
“With you like that, you can’t function as a god, huh…..your memory, would it be better to erase it?”
If my memory is erased, this feeling of loss and emptiness will probably disappear
…..However, I hesitate since Rune and the others will disappear from my memories
—‘don’t want’ is what I feel
Even if I’m tormented in a continuous state of sadness
“No need”
“It’ll be painful if you have your memories right? For you, for the sake of becoming a suitable Reigning God, I just wanted [you to keep] the accumulate experience”
Even if my memories disappear, it seems just that sort of information will be left behind
If that’s the case before I was made a demon god, it would have been better if my previous existence’s memories were erased
Well, if that was the case the likelihood of me coming to like Rune would have probably been low, though it wouldn’t make much of a difference here and now
“If I can’t stand it, I’ll just die”
“…..Gods are perpetually young and undying, you know~?”
My appearance hasn’t changed from the time I was the demon god
Only, the clothes are similar to this god’s so I am wearing clothes like what a priest would wear
“I’ll search for a way”
“……you, you’re the same as ever, huh~ You could even be the god of wisdom~”
To such words, I don’t listen closely
I only do things I want you know
Even if that results in something inconvenient, it has nothing to do with me
Even if I’m made into something like a foolish existence like a god, it’s this god’s fault
I am myself
Just this will not change
———
—
—? Side—
“So slow”
“Blockhead!”
One after another insults are poured on
My shoulder was pushed and I staggered
I ended up dropping the container I was carrying, water spilled
(……again, I have to redo it…..)
For me, drawing water is heavy labor
That, is because I my leg is disabled
I who cannot move one leg, am bad at carrying loads
Due to that, compared to other people it takes me multiple times longer
==
I understand that I am a bother to the surroundings
Even though my leg is disabled, danna-sama [/master-sama] hired me
Even though I want to helpful even just a bit, I am of no use whatsoever
A person who takes many times longer, is just made fun of by everyone
Like this I just take the harassment
Knowing that drawing water is heavy labor for me, in order to make me spill water on purpose they’ll push or bump into me
…..However, for things like this, I won’t say anything to danna-sama
Since he’s a gentle person, surely his heart would end up hurt
I don’t want to make danna-sama sad
As long as I handle it as if I fell down by myself it’s fine
Since my leg is disabled, he probably won’t even think of questioning this lie
==
(However, it’s really painful….)
Day after day, things like this are repeated, as one would expect tears come out
I want to runaway
…..However, I have nowhere to go
There is no work that I can do, even if I runaway from here, all that will be awaiting me is just a future of death from starvation
Seeing the me unable to endure it and bursting into tears, everyone laughs in scorn
“He’s crying”
“Just try telling danna-sama. ….. If you can”
““Ahahahaha……””
Their laughter resounds
To tell on them, there is no way
Just the thought of danna-sama being sad, I don’t want to say it
However, it’s painful
(Why, just me…..)
I have had one leg disabled from birth
It seems that I was abandoned by my parents
I was raised in an orphanage, from which came an introduction to a place where even I with a disabled leg could work, to be danna-sama’s servant
So, if I resign from here I’ll have no place to return to
For an orphanage it’s no good if it’s not a child, for me who has already left the orphanage, I can’t return
Even if I who has a disabled leg returns, I can’t offer sufficient help, and would just be a bother
“Useless idiot, hurry up and quit!”
“You only eat up our food!!”
Their insults always gouge into my heart
Even I have had such thoughts, I think it would be good if I died at the point in time I’m thrown away
Since there’s nothing I can do
Just being a bother, since I can do nothing but cry
==
“….as I thought, this weak looking face does not change, huh”
A new voice made me raise my face
Before my eyes, is a person with long black hair
Wearing white clothes
Everyone surrounding me were wrapped in restraints
That person who I looked back at, was an amazingly beautiful person
(……A man?)
At the beauty I had never seen before, I can’t definitively distinguish their sex
However—
“……Who?”
Such a person, I have never seen him before
The clothes he’s wearing too [I haven’t seen before]
“Actually, I can’t interfere with individuals, though, you know. When I saw your previous look I descended”
That person who walked in my direction, said a reason I didn’t understand
And then—
(Hiih——!)
The leg I couldn’t move was grabbed
I can’t even scream
(It’s hot!)
The leg that was grabbed became hot all at once
Hot to the point of burning, I writhe reflexively
Cold sweat dripped out, I vaguely wondered if I was dying
==
“It’s over”
“……Eh?”
That person let go of my hand and grabbed my arm, lifting me up
To stand me up at once, this person seems really strong
Dumbfounded, I looked up at the beautiful person and—
“I fixed your leg. You can already walk, alright?”
That person’s words surprised me
“I can, walk?”
I repeated back while dumbfounded
That person was continuously expressionless, I don’t understand what he’s thinking
(My leg’s fixed…..?)
I tried looking at my own leg
The right foot that should not be able to move
Since it was something that I thought was destined to not move, being told it can move I can’t comprehend it
Although I was told I could walk, I remained motionless while I looked at my leg—
“So that you can properly walk, I also stimulated your muscle growth. Though it will take time before you are accustomed to it”
The person before my eyes spoke again
“….Who?”
I tried asking at this late time
My leg that I was told even a doctor couldn’t fix, even if I’m told it’s fixed after just being touched, I can’t believe it
“Ah—…. I am Shin”
That person who named himself as Shin—
“…..Human?”
To fix it with just a touch, it’s unthinkable he’s a person
“I don’t really much want to name my status”
For some reason he made a displeased face
At that time—
==
“You~, what are you doing~?”
At that moment someone appeared at his side
Although he was wearing similar clothes to this black haired person, this person’s hair is golden
“How annoying you found me”
I could hear such muttered
—from the black haired person
==
“Didn’t I tell you personally interfering was no good?”
“Whatever I do, I do at my own convenience”
These two are probably on bad terms?
I can’t see them as close friends
“Even becoming a god, you don’t change, huh”
“You’re the one who made me a god, after all. Since I would’ve been fine with just dying like that”
Somehow or other it seems that the black haired person and the golden haired person are gods
……rather…..
(Eeeeeeh!?)
God?
You mean, that god-sama?
Does that mean god-sama fixed my leg?
I tried moving my right foot like my left foot
…..and, it moved
With a *dota-* sound……I clumsily fell down, the black haired person—no, god-sama turned towards me
“I said it would take time until you become accustomed to it right. Don’t overdo it”
The moment he says so I was lifted up again
Although his mouth is harsh, I feel he’s gentle
—because he’s a god?
“Interfering with a single living creature too much is no good, I told you geez~”
“Annoying. I have said that I would absolutely only do what I want right? If you don’t want that immediately erase me”
The black haired god-sama, it seems he did something he shouldn’t have
It means that fixing my leg was probably done by this god’s own choice
Even just there being several god-samas is shocking……
==
“Geez~……you’ve changed this child’s fate in a big way you know~? So you have to do something about the difficulties that go with that k~?”
“You do it”
“Wait wait! Stop leaving things unfinished~”
The two gods’ quarrel, I can only watch dumbfounded
Everyone else too, while being restrained, just silently watch the two that called themselves gods
==
“….Then, it’s fine as long as I take care of this guy’s troubles?”
“That’s no good~! You intend to neglect your god’s work?”
“Tedious. I’m already tired of it. I’ll, quit being a god”
“Hey, hey-! What are you saying!?”
The black haired god seems to be very selfish
The golden haired god seems to be in a hurry to try and stop him, but the black haired god called Shin seems to have no intention of listening
“Come”
Easily lifting me onto his shoulders he starts walking to somewhere
“……-, wait. Please wait! Danna-sama will be upset”
I call out in a panic
I am in the middle of work
I’m still in the middle of drawing water
Only I still haven’t finished
Everyone else remained wrapped in restraints without change
“That, is not the guy that you think, you know?”
Without understanding I tilted my head
‘That’ he says, is probably danna-sama?
“That, is trying to make you a male prostitute, you know?
I can’t believe those words
Even if the other person giving the example is a god-sama, danna-sama is a gentle person
“It’s a lie-!”
“Due to your leg’s disability, you can’t do satisfactory work, so he’s trying to sell you. I came in order to help you”
—He came to help?
Danna-sama is trying to sell me as a male prostitute?
Not wanting to believe it, I shake my head
“Do you want to take on such work?”
Such a thing, isn’t it obviously unpleasant
Something like a male prostitute, it’s a thing that a person with a lot of debts becomes
I’m neither poor nor have debts
Despite that, for danna-sama to be trying to sell me to such a place, I don’t even want to think about it
“Don’t think anything, practice walking”
(Even if you tell me such a thing….)
Such behaviour like that is unthinkable
The gentle danna-sama, for him to be trying to sell me……
Even though danna-sama is the only one that ever helped me
“The face of a guy that’s nothing but a crybaby, huh”
The hand that pat my head although it was cold it was gentle
What will I do from now on?
“Until you become able to walk I’ll take care of you. After that find work yourself. Since any more than that and that guy’ll be noisy”
I feel like I have been together with this god-sama for a long time
…However, why is it?
Since I am a live in employee where I work, I have no home
…..I, keep forgetting the other party is a god-sama
I thought I was set down in a place with nothing there, then a splendid home was built before my eyes
A home even bigger that danna-sama’s estate
Walking while pulling my hand, god-sama supported me even if I stumbled
Just why is he this nice to me?
Although I still don’t understand how to move my leg, for him to fix it for me……
Was it a whim of god-sama, I wonder?
==
Eventually, I’m able to walk……or rather, since it was even to the point of being able to run, the god-sama called Shin disappeared
Around that time, I realized that danna-sama’s estate cleanly disappeared, but nobody knew why
—? Side end—
AN: completed
Thank you for everything up to now
Shin who became a god is as free as ever, swinging the surroundings around as he pleases
Shin finally cried once Rune was gone
He became a god-sama who helped people who looked like Rune several times, governing the world like that
—probably
Descending down to the mortal world on a whim, or abandoning his god’s work, but due to the time he spent with Rune and the others, he is thought of as gentle (calm) like that
Shin who knows human emotions, has probably become an excellent god. Probably
Thanks for all the support m(__)m
TN: Well, that ended rather abruptly, I wonder if the author lost interest….?
I’m sad Rune really ended up dead and gone….I’m too used to the happily ever after/together for eternity ending…….. I guess Rune being reincarnated and Shin watching over him is an okay ending……
two more extras that I’ll post wednesday
PS: to the person who wanted to translate my translation,
you can, but I gotta warn you this is an amateur translation so my translation isn’t exact or 100% accurate and I use a lot of the same words in english for words that are different in japanese especially for things like ‘however/but’ or ‘seems/appears’ and it’s technically correct but they have slightly different connotations in Japanese (and I also use different words in english for what is the same word for japanese like ‘pamper/spoil’ for example)
If you don’t mind that, I guess no need to worry about it though

Thank you for your hard work so far & for translating this novel! It was an interesting adventure to follow, lol.
The ending is quite melancholy inducing… & the story itself very peculiar. I guess that’s the charm of it.
I don’t remember if you had decided on a new project or not, but good luck anyway!
