The Unnamed God. I'm really Not a God You Guys!

What's with the dagger?! 

"Repeat what you just said."

[I was hoping to see you at work?] 

"No, not that part!" 

[That's all I said…do you mean me sighing?] 

"You said something about an elf, why? Are you trying to insult me?"

Oh my god. 

Don't tell me she's one of those. 

You know the ones that identify as something else.

I've heard of people identifying as the other gender. 

Is she taking it that far?! 

[Look lady, it's fine if you don't want to be an elf, but when I see an elf, I'll call it an elf. Don't bother me with that please.] 

"H-how?!" 

The kid is watching completely stunned on the side too. 

"H-how did you know?!"

[It's a neat thing called having eyes you know.] 

"How did you see through my illusion magic!"

Okay, that explains a lot. 

Seems what was evident to me was supposed to be a secret. 

[Ah, I can't see magic. At all. So yeah, better luck next time.] 

"Why are you acting so smug? I could simply slaughter you right now." 

[Sure, you can try. It's questionable if you even can, to be honest.] 

She presses her dagger further on my neck. 

Hehe, I may be useless in many aspects. 

But standing still and taking a beating is my strong suit. 

[Then what will you do next? Run away from the Gluto church that will come for you? Run away from the kid's family too?]

"S-shut up?!" 

[Please, you'll screw up your life here completely. For what? Sounds dumb as hell to me.] 

"Stop talking! Fine! I'll let you guys go, but only after removing your memories of this place." 

She starts chanting. 

Should I headbutt her? 

Ha, she did say she has no plan on killing us. 

Seems she just wants to keep her secret. 

I'm kinda curious to see if I can block that sort of thing with divine power. 

My guess is yes. 

Why? 

Gut feeling. 

I really need to find someone to teach me how to use divine power. 

So far, I haven't encountered anyone since that Lunar goddess. 

Then again that energy doesn't seem to natively exist in the earth realm. 

So it may take a long while before I find another exception like I. 

She finally finishes her chant. 

Then she whispers in my ear.

"How about now?

Do you remember who I am?" 

[A carpenter, right? One I came to see to have tables and chairs made.] 

I can almost feel her cheering to herself in the background. 

Sighing in relief. 

"Anything else?"

I really shouldn't…

Like really, but I can't help myself. 

[Just your everyday normal ….]

She relaxes. 

[…promiscuous elf.] 

I can feel her entire body tense up. 

"How come!" 

[I mean you've been pressing yourself against my back whispering in my ear for a while now.] 

The kid starts guffawing.

"HAHAHAHAHA. Brother...I know I shouldn't be laughing but damn!" 

He gives me a thumbs up. 

"HAHAHAHA. If you end up dying because of it I will tell the tale of your huge balls to the world!" 

I can't help but smile slightly. 

But what's with me dying? 

Also, what's red and has pointy ears? 

Yes, the elf being me…at least I think. 

"Y-you! H-how do you still remember?! This doesn't make any …"

[I already told you I'm not good with magic.] 

"This is beside the point! This is impossible you can't…"

[I'm also very bad at dying you know. How about you move that dagger already?]

"Y-you…"

[Or do you perhaps enjoy this position? *Sigh* It's fine I'll sacrifice my warm back to bring you comfort.] 

What can I say? 

I'm just that noble of an individual.

Willing to sacrifice myself for the sake of others. 

I should probably stop. 

The kid might just die…of laughter.

"There is no way I can just…"

[So, you'll make me some tables and chairs, right?]

"Y-you…"

[Tables and chairs?] 

"*Sigh*Fine." 

She finally moves away from me. 

I'm almost going to miss that soft sensation pressing on…

She looks at me solemnly. 

"Who are you exactly." 

I look at her straight in the eyes. 

[You see, I am the legendary ….]

She is hanging on every one of my words. 

[The legendary …. pie baker!] 

She freezes for a second. 

Then she gives me a disdainful and reproachful look. 

A little more and she'd be pouting haha. 

"Old lady he really means it! He owns a bakery!" 

She looks at both of us suspiciously.

Then she comes to a realization. 

"I see. I guess you and I are not so different after all."

[Of course.] 

I mean elves are basically humans that got supermodel DNA. 

Quite possibly magic too.

"Do you ever feel like you don't belong in this world sometimes?" 

[Always!] 

"Wondering if you'll ever see your kin?" 

[Eh, kinda?] 

"Awaiting a day when you can go back to your rightful place…."

[Ah, I mean that is a stretch. I can barely use magic. Going to another dimension is a bit…] 

"What?!" 

[What?!] 

"What was that about another…?" 

[Eh, I was agreeing with you. But world hoping is probably troublesome.]

"…"

[I mean my guess I could do it in a near future. The issue would be going to the right one.] 

"…"

[I mean there are bound to be multiple universes out there…]

"…"

[How should I know which one I exactly came from?]

"…"

I swipe my hand a few times in front of her face. 

[Hey, you alive?] 

She remains unmoving. 

Eyes bulging. 

What's up with her? 

"B-brother, did you just admit to literally come from another world?"

[Eh, isn't that kind of stuff normal? I mean there are other guys summoned by gods too, no?] 

"W-wait….oh my god. Too? You are a champion?!" 

Ah, I see. 

[Haha, no. I was misunderstood as one once however.] 

"How is that possible?!" 

[Meh, these guys are not that different from us, to be honest.] 

"How?!" 

[The champions are totally human as far as I've seen.]

"…"

[I mean even the gods. When a goddess can't even recognize enlightenment, you know she's bad hahaha.] 

"…"

*GULP* 

[Anyway, what's up with you guys? Why are none of you talking?]
