Chapter 62 A God Has Descended?
—A minute ago at one of McDowell's Branches—
-Sizzle~
-Sizzle~
The sound of burger patties and french fries being fried resounded in the room as the room temperature became moderately high.
A part-timer with black hair and crimson-red eyes was sweating as he multi-tasked, frying both burger patties and french fries at the same time. When it came to his job, he never slacked off. He was aiming for the cash bonus of becoming the employee of the month!
While Julius Daemon, the demon god part-timer at McDowell's was working hard to pay for his bills, his instincts immediately flared up as he sensed danger on planet earth!
'Fuck! Why is someone using divinity in this world?'
'Did Gaia directly interfere in Blue Star? Hasn't she been passive nowadays? Why did she interfere now?'
When those thoughts entered Julius' mind, he discovered that his assumptions were incorrect.
'No, this doesn't seem to be Gaia's divinity.'
'If I'm not mistaken, a god has descended in China. His divinity seems to be leaning towards order and supremacy and has neutral properties. It doesn't correlate with Gaia's divinity that has earth, life, and nature properties.'
'Is there a god similar to me who had escaped from their home planet and sought refuge in Blue Star?'
'But according to his divinity, there doesn't seem to be any problems with it. His divinity isn't broken.'
'Also, why do I feel that his divinity is stronger than mine? If I'm not mistaken, it's even stronger than the Goddess of Fantasy!'
Having such an absurd thought in his mind, Julius shook his head and dispelled it.
'No! That's impossible! Blue Star is too weak to raise a god stronger than Filicia!'
'Otherwise, I wouldn't have sought refuge in Blue Star if the gods were stronger than Filicia.'
After dismissing such a thought in his head, Julius was relieved.
But, he didn't know that the humans in Blue Star were favored by fate and destiny. Humans in Blue Star were very unpredictable. They might be the weakest sentient race compared to otherworldly races, but they could give birth to a prodigy that could reach the level of a god.
It just so happened that Keith A.K. McDowell was such an existence. An existence capable of surpassing the gods with his First Order skill, albeit for a very short duration.
After Julius noticed that the divinity in China had disappeared, he no longer cared and was focusing on frying burgers and fries. Although he didn't forget about the unknown god, he still could care less about it since the employee of the month was more important to him.
The burger patty was flipped into the air as Julius showed his excellent reflexes and reaction time as a former overpowered demon god.
'I need to work hard! Those bills won't pay for themselves!'
After resolving himself to work harder, Julius focused on his work at McDowell's.
Although there was already the establishment of the Awakened Guild, Julius had never thought of becoming an awakened. The reason for that was that he was still recuperating from his injuries.
Unless he was forced to go all out, he could barely reach the SSS-rank in terms of power. Not to mention, he didn't want to alert the god in the world behind the dimensional gate.
It was already too difficult to hide in Blue Star while preventing the possibility of infuriating Gaia. He didn't want to offend the god behind the dimensional gate so that's one of the reasons why he never thought of becoming an awakened.
One of the other reasons was that he was vigilant when it came to those humans discovering his identity as a demon god. He had already felt that his current concealment was not sufficient enough since a certain long purple-haired teenager had seen through his true appearance.
Not to mention, he was already satisfied with his current life. Being a part-timer in the world's leading fast-food chain was quite a well-paid job.
At least, he had enough money to spend on his bills as well as have disposable income for top up on his games.
Not only was the demon god a part-timer, but he was also a gamer who spent most of his money on games. His current goal in life was to become the employee of the month and also become a full-time worker at McDowell's.
His income as a part-timer was already lucrative. So he wanted to become a full-time worker to defeat those whales!
As for defeating Filicia, Julius had already lost hope of defeating her. Even when he was in his prime, he couldn't defeat her.
Even if he recovered, his strength would be insufficient to defeat her. After all, when he was recuperating from his injuries, it was unlikely for Filicia's strength to remain stagnant.
'The only way I can defeat Filicia is by asking foreign gods to team up with me and defeat her. But if I do that, those foreign gods might betray me and become the second Filicia. They will take over Fantasia and their ruling might even be worst than Filicia's.'
'Not to mention, I am too poor to hire the assistance of those foreign gods.'
When Julius thought of his current wealth, he could only shed bloody tears. If not for Filicia, he would have already taken over Fantasia and obtained the treasures in that world.
But his current self was too pitiful. Not only did he fail in taking over Fantasia, but he was also forced to take refuge in a foreign world.
'This world is too weird! Blue Star should be weak, but why is the water so deep?'
'Not only is Gaia's strength unknown, but even an unknown god has also descended in China and reached a level stronger than Filicia and my power combined!'
'If more anomalies occurred in this world, I might be dead before I know it. Next year today might be my death anniversary.'
With those thoughts in mind, Julius Daemon had already decided.
Since Blue Star was too dangerous, he should just hide and wait until he was powerful enough to escape to a weaker planet.
Living in Blue Star was too dangerous!
