The meteor made a sudden sharp turn in front of Kami and Hiromichi as the force blew Hiromochi back a few yards.
"H-holy shit what the hell is happening?!" yelled out Hiromichi.
Kami sighed and snapped his fingers placing Hiromichi to sleep. His snores surprisingly were loud and clear to the ear despite the loud entrance Sayu was making.
Th bright light floated in front of Kami's face as it took shape. He saw to his surprise a fist flying to his face. He knew what that would mean if he took the full blow to the face as he swiftly opened his [Passives] and re enabled his [Omnipotent] ability just in time for him to take the hit. He had very little time to react as he teleported Hiromichi and Thief away a safe distance.
It wasn't as fast to take effect as he thought it would be so he was unable to brace himself for the impact and got thrown back. The force of the punch destroyed a large area as he flew back what was potentially a few yards before regaining composure. The area around them was completely blown away destroying all form of nature and signs of life. The force of the punch continued to echo throughout the area destroying everything on its path and finally reached the walls of the city. Part of the walls began cracking and suddenly it exploded bringing down part of the wall with it.
Kami looked at the effects of the punch on the city. They were quite a distance away from the city so considering just the force had reached it, Sayu had put quite a bit of force behind that punch.
"S-shit Sayu what's gotten into you?" asked a surprised Kami.
"Y-you left me in charge of everything all JUST so you could play hooky in a video game world I AM NOT-" she spoke in an angry tone as she spread her wings and suddenly stopping herself.
She landed on the ground and immediately prostrated herself on the ground. The tone of her voice changed immediately to one of a more submissive nature.
"Merciful God, Creator of-"
"Please spare me the worshiping, that was the first time I've seen you get like that I have to say it's a nice change, despite you trying to hurt me." Kami said as he adjusted his shirt once more.
Her punch had done nothing but he was nonetheless surprise to have taken a punch from what was his personal assistant.
"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be running Heaven right now?" asked Kami as he walked up to Sayu who still had her head on the floor.
Her wings flapped intensively as she lifted her head and once again sounded angry.
"You're telling ME I should be in HEAVEN?! You little brat! Do you-I... Almighty please forgive my-"
Agh here we go again. Well it seems like she's at least being a little honest with herself I can tell she's angry with me but her need to devote herself to me is a little bothersome, really.
Kami raised his hand as Sayu grew quiet.
"Well I'm glad we can have this talk but I'm not going anywhere. I'm having a little too much fun here and I'm not exactly ready to go back."
Sayu looked at Kami with a horrified expression as she stuttered to speak.
"Y-you can't stay here! Creation as we know it is falling apart. Just while I was in charge more than 60 thousand Universe fell apart and countless other once are on the verge of following. W-we need you back in Heaven to run everything back in order."
Kami tilted his head and yawned.
She's complaining about 60 thousand universes.?Please that's not even a reasonable fraction to complain about. The angels will get used to running Heaven on their own soon. I left everything in Heaven that they would need if this was to ever happen they HAVE to take care of themselves at some point.
"Look Sayu as your ummm- 'Almighty Creator' don't you think I know what I'm doing? You guys will be fine just run up to Heaven and- aah, troublesome."
Kami looked at a distance as he noticed a group of horses coming out from the city, slowly making their way towards them.
Ah man I would usually just pause my games in this kind of scenario. Oh wait, duh, I'm Omnipotent again.
Kami raised his hands to his sides and everything began slowing down to a halt. The leaves that were floating down from the remainder of the dead trees stopped in the middle of the air. The clouds stayed in place in the sky and everything around them was suddenly frozen.
"Look Sayu just, go back to Heaven I promise I'll go back as soon as I'm done."
She looked at him with a sad expression as her eyes became teary and suddenly she let out a cry.
"I- I don't want to go back and lead Heaven it's too much for me to handle! Please don't make me go back! Let Michael or someone else do it!"
Kami stared at Sayu with a blank expression.
Was she always this childish? No, I don't remember that, she always had a cooler mom-like demeanor to her. It could be she can't handle the pressure and just cracked under it. That's probably it, considering I've never put so much responsibility on an angel before. I've always led the way and for the first time they're walking on their own. Ah my poor children...
Kami sighed and gave a gentle smile as he walked up to Sayu.
She continued to sob as she felt Kami's hand pat her back. She clinged onto his shirt and looked up at him.
"C-can we just go back home?"
Maybe he should go back. Not forever but just enough time to at least teach the angels how to walk on their own. How to run the whole system of Heaven without his help then he could just come back and unfreeze all of time in this universe like nothing had ever happened. Perhaps he had been a little too hasty in leaving all of creation in the hands of the angels; considering they could barely take care of themselves. It's funny, Kami always had a soft spot for his creations when they called out to him and needed his help. They wouldn't always receive it like they wanted but he would always give them something. Most creations thought he would just ignore and abandon them but he knew better. Sayu was always witness to that as well.
Kami suddenly stopped and eyed her suspiciously.
"A-are you playing the pity card on me?!"
Sayu stopped crying and rubbed her eyes as she looked back at him with a blank expression.
"You tend to take pity on your creations that cry out to you. I thought this would be the most effective means to bring y-"
Sayu shrunk down as Kami's anger flared.
He didn't like being played with and especially not tricked. Perhaps if he had his [Omniscient] passive on he could have seen it coming but not this time.
"P-please, have mercy on me" begged Sayu.
Suddenly there was a relieve in his chest as his anger subsided and he laughed. He laughed loudly as Sayu stared at him too scared to make another move that would unleash his wrath on her.
"Alright, alright, you got me Sayu, I'll give you this one. You don't want to go back to Heaven you say? Very well, you can stick with me on my journey until I go home."
"H-huh?"
Kami snapped his fingers and there was a sudden burst of power that surrounded Sayu. Her power was leaving her as she felt herself grow weaker and weaker. Her divine glow left and her wings retracted into her body. The process was quick and soon she felt herself and realized she was no longer covered in God's Divinity.
"W-what's going on?"
"Well here's the deal. You can go off on your own in this world and carry out the rest of your life. Or you can stick with me and finish this little adventure. Now if you try any more deceiving Papa Kami is going to very upset so no more of that, understood?"
Sayu stared horrified at herself as she realized all that grace and power she had was stripped from her. She was no longer the powerful Archangel God had made her. She was now some shadow of that.
Kami smiled happily as he helped Sayu up from the ground.
"I-I'm mortal?"
"Not exactly. You're a Level 1 Archangel. Congrats Sayu, welcome to the game."
