The rest of the tournament passed by rather quickly. Now that the pool of contestants had been narrowed down so much, and their energy reserves depleted to this degree, each round was over after typically just a few moves. Those unfortunate enough to look away from the transmission would often miss a round or two of their favorite candidate, and may not even know how they were eliminated. The final victor, unsurprisingly, was a combat-oriented triple deity. This was Roland Crom, the human God of Contest,…-

“She has arrived, my Keeper.” Tsubaki said, causing me to nod and rise from the couch. It had been a long time since anyone else had been brought to the Sky Citadel like this, so I wanted to go and greet her in the throne room. Once I got out to the throne room, I saw Laura standing in the middle of the floor, her head looking around as if she were confused. Granted, what I had seen of her revealed to me that confusion was a far more natural state for her. But, that was one of the things that we were…

Aznod stood across from his opponent, the two standing on a platform one hundred meters wide. As it was determined that distance was largely irrelevant to many gods, the ring was condensed in order to make the event easier to broadcast. His opponent was a human woman with long black hair and sunken eyes. Aznod gave her a brief glance before deciding that she was a god that he had never heard of before, which increased the difficulty of the coming battle considerably. He himself was famous to some degree,…

Elisae smiled, looking down at her script on her terminal, making sure that she remembered everything that she needed to say. This charity event was meant to funnel money into the less well-off areas of the world, in an attempt to aid in the fight against economic decline. It wasn’t the first charity event that Elisae had held in recent years, but it was certainly the most ambitious Asking “Y-Your Highness?” As she was thinking about that, and finalizing the script, she heard a knock on the door…

I could sense Dana breaking off from the group, looking like she was going to go over and talk to a young, felyn girl. However, when my eyes glanced in their direction, I could only see Dana herself. The felyn girl seemed to be completely invisible, only registered by my World Sight. I was… curious, but it seemed like Dana was handling the matter. At worst, she’d be a pickpocket that got caught, but Dana wouldn’t do anything serious to her for something like that. “Is something the matter, my…

As promised, it did not take long before the maid class was ready for implementation. However, once Lifre told me that she wanted the private messaging system to be added as well, I asked Ashley to hold off on applying the patch until that was done. When I heard that, I could only let out a sigh of resignation. Of course, I knew that the system was prone to changing things however it wanted when a new facet was added in. I saw a grand example of this when Fyor’s magic system was introduced, with the…

I nodded my head, laying down on the oversized bed prepared in my room. Before going to the Admin Room, I made sure to synchronize myself with my Virtual self this time, just to make sure that I did not cause any undue worries with the rest of the group. As it turned out, we were in the middle of continuing our base construction from our previous game. Since I was waiting for some parts to be delivered, it was fine for me to be away for a few minutes. After closing my eyes, I wished myself up to the Admin…

After sorting everything out with the system transfer, I went back to the mortal world, returning to the Sky Citadel where I had left Tsubaki and the others when it was time for the meeting to begin. As soon as I arrived, I saw Tsubaki bowing towards me from across the table, Dana offering a playful smile, and Lifre… pouting? “Is everything alright, Lifre?” I asked curiously, having expected her to be in a good mood after both the work she had put in and the new system update. “She was going to…

The Meeting passed all too quickly, with myself and the others enjoying our honeymoon period while simply relaxing and taking in the festivities. We didn’t worry about gathering points, looking for new advancements, or socializing with other Keepers. There were some days in the meeting that we didn’t even leave our room, just staying there and watching entertainment programs that the Meeting world had prepared. Before I realized it, our time was over, and everyone was suddenly appearing back in the…

“So, where are these puzzle games?!” Lifre asked, her tune having completely changed after Dana told her the details of the puzzles in the Meeting. Dana simply chuckled, looking around. “They’ll be around here somewhere. I think you’ll really like this one.” She said, focusing on getting a certain game to appear. Like how Tsubaki was showing Keliope a game that she had gone through in a previous meeting, Dana was doing the same with Lifre. Sure enough, a door appeared along a nearby wall.…
