"W-what? Oath ?"

Shimai Hiroki exclaimed as he read the system message. As one of the prime shareholders of Hachiman Guild, he understands what this message means, but he still couldn't believe it.

In guild's storage, he saw all kinds of things ranging from the carcass of a dragon to cursed diadem. Especially after witnessing all sorts of holy items and divine beast, thought of the existence of god appeared in his head, but he just decided to ignore it.

But then, out of all over eight billion people, the unknown god decided to choose him.

"Oath with An Unknown God ?"

"God, GOD!"

Immediately a Hiroki remembered a weird system message about the manifestation of the God, that he previously received along with a report of the government that asking S ranked players for an escort mission.

"Driver quickly change the route to Hachiman Guild's HQ."

"Yes, sir!"

*If it is really is what I assumed then, I must go with them.*

In just a half-hour, Hiroki able to get the information he wants from the guild master.

"So the government wants three of out S ranked players to escort workers with a unique title that grant them entrance to newly appeared rift ?"

"Not a rift, but the resting place created by an unknown goddess appeared on earth around 1:00 Am. Currently, I received a request that even a prime minister wants to meet the goddess."

"Even prime minister ?"

"Yes, also other guilds sending their players to the site as well. We just lucky that the government called us first."

After knowing his assumption is real, Hiroki didn't know, he should laugh or cry as the first person who was noticed, by the god itself. But one for sure is he must meet this god right now.

"Hachiman, Include me into that escort. if you do that, I promise I join on your side at the next conference."

"Oh, Hiroki you asking something really hard from me there, let you know not just you asking something like this from me. Including a prime minister to the special team, it is already reaching the limit of people that our S ranked team can protect."

Hearing the reply Hiroki quickly understood Hatchiman just want to milk him more. It was also his way of taking revenge on him for disagreeing with his previous proposal for increasing the budget for guild staffs.

'To think that a few million dollars would bite me in the ankle like this. But this time I need to bite the bullet here. Right now my life is more important.'

Hiroki knows the danger of power related to the soul as someone who is involved with top-ranking players daily. Just for an example, he remembered the skills of one of the top player of Chinese called Yu Xuan Bai. She has an 'B' ranked skill called 'Shadow Puppeteer. that allows her to rob and enslave souls of weaker people including players as well.'

"Then, what do you want ?"

If just a B-ranked skill can do this, then Hiroki didn't want to imagine what the god can do to his soul.

"Cut your connections with Adrian."

After hearing a single sentence, Hiroki felt he was struck by lightning. He didn't expect the guild master to know his connection with the foreign guild.

"From when and who ?"

"Three months ago, as who it is guild secret."

"Damn it, okay, okay I cut every tie with Adrian. Here I give you even a phone, but that is it."

Said Hiroki gave a special phone to Hachiman, if not for saving his soul he definitely not let go of this gold mine.

"Thanks for your cooperation with the Hachiman guild."

With a face full of smiles Hachiman received the phone immediately and presented the contract to Hachiman.

'Fucking old coot, you are even worse than me.'

While throwing a curse, Hiroki signed his name on the contract. Another hour later, Hiroki arrived in front of a large forest surrounded by a transparent barrier.

"So this is it."

Despite being only one day passed since the appearance the whole area is already surrounded by media and representatives from other guilds.

"Mr.Hiroki, what is your purpose for entering this mysterious forest said it turned into god's resting place ?"

"I was chosen by Hachiman guild's representative to meet it thing calls itself god."

"It is true that with the appearance of the god, there is a new power added above the government ?"

"No! we already went past that dark age of superstition and I say this thing called god is no use in this modern age."

Said Hiroki felt a ring on his left thumb. It was his spatial ring that filled all kinds of treasure and money he prepared to offer a god residing inside the forest. He knows since it is near impossible to restore japan in just three years so he prepared quite a sum as an offering.

"Now with help of our guild's strongest made of six rank S players, we will negotiate with god in even grounds."

The man spewed bullshit without noticing the faces of people behind him turn dark in each word he spewed. It was included the prime minister himself self who secretly decked himself full of protection rings and amulets under his fancy white suit.

Each of them thought of one thing.

'STOP! YOU FUCKING PIG! SOMEONE GET THE SCOUT AND SHOW THIS DUMBASS THE PICTURE OF 'THING' HE SPEAKS OF!'

But of course, the moment the camera point at their face change, it will change in less than a second into the face of a warrior. With that all under the eyes of mass, the great warriours steps into a barrier to meet the god.

And on the other side of the barrier, they saw a six-armed titan donned in the golden mask of a wolf gazing at them, sat on the throne in the middle of the vast meadow surrounded by mountains. The noble posture that couldn’t have possibly belonged to a monster or a thing, the dignified body overflowing with confidence.

It is surrounded by animals that either sleeping or playing along with them as if they have nothing to fear.

You have entered the resting ground of God. Congratulations you met Goddess Airu. Name Airu The Goddess of War, Family, and Fortitude Race God Attribute Benevolent Status ??????

"Come, children's of man. From outside of my place, I heard you want to talk to me as an equal."

Hiroki and others who wake up a system message from their daze froze in their place again when they heard a gentle voice mixed with a hint of amusement.

At that moment all of them wanted to get altar and sacrifice the pig to their new goddess for real.
