THE GODDESS OF BEAUTY

Its been a day since i’ve become rank G.

the thing is, i realized that she is a true god.

and by a true god, she is one of the two people ranked SSS.

she wagered a rank swap.

and by a rank swap, is that i’ll get her rank and she gets mine......in case i win atleast.

but in her case, if she won, she would lower me to rank G, and get me to be her so called ‘butler’.

this blond beauty is quite crazy, to propose a rank swap with an E.

in the end, there are only two ranked SSS in heaven.

doesn’t that tell you how extremely difficult it is to get to that rank?

but then again, she wouldn’t reach that rank if she was a sane person.

what intrigued me is......why did the former mortal; now mighty god want with me?

i mean, why did she take such a high risk low return gamble?

she could have thought of something.....or she’s just an idiot.

but!

she can’t be an idiot, because of the way she used to convince Drake that i was in no danger even though a knife was aimed at my throat.

she didn’t release the so called ‘killing intent’

that, in itself, convinced Drake subconsciously that she wouldn’t do it.

without enough hints or anything to go with, he was convinced that either choices were fine.

no!

he was rather convinced that choosing me is wrong, i wont ‘gain’ anything from it.

it honestly looked like she didn’t use any tricks at all....but that in itself is her trap.

and Drake, who let down his guard, fell for it.

really, didn’t i die because of some rotten ‘friendship’?

human relations are quite bad for my mental health, honestly.

which reminds me, there is this interesting little thing i discovered That Acidalia Taught me about

you can view another person’s rank if you say the word ‘Share’.

quite the interesting function....no?

ahh, speaking about G rank!

i no longer have to eat!

not having to eat means that i don’t have to do that!

i can even go through walls!

..............i actually can’t.

why?!

even though objects can run through me, for some reason, i cant go through objects!

i need to call the all mighty god that's responsible for this, and report this bug!

i never thought that heaven had bugs!

ahh

there’s one down side though

my hands can go through objects.

so unless i concentrate, anything i touch is going to slip right through.

now then......aren’t you wondering about my current location?

don’t worry, i’m still in the slums.

or to be more accurate, at the edge of the slums, in the only mansion that is in the outskirts of heaven.

its positioned in the north-west slums, right near the walls for the city.

although! the gates are on the other side.

so if we were going to into the city, we’re going to have to circle around.....which would take a few hours.

not to mention, the mansion itself is in ruins....

this might sound ironic, but i believe i’m a clean freak!

now then, i acknowledge that i’m a clean freak. since in the end, knowing the problem is the first step into solving it! not that i plan to do so.

so the plan was to have this place cleaned!

and thus, this brings us to the present.

i’m cleaning at the moment.

and its taking forever.

i’m starting to have second thoughts here.....

since in the end, its just me and Acidalia.

ohh?

isn’t her name a bit.......long?

i should come up with a nickname!

and with such thoughts, i cleaned while keeping my thoughts out of how messy this place is.

its dusty, no window is left intact and every time you take a step, you hear a creaking sound

“I don’t even know how a ghost is able to make creaking sounds every time he takes a step!”

“Ohh? then want me to fix that??”

oh....shieeet........

did i just say that......out loud?

i guess i did......

“E-err.....that’ll be great......?”

a though soon flashed in my mind.

is she going to rank me up to F?

i don’t want that though....

i mean, she just got me to G, and won’t i run away as soon as i reached rank F?

at least that's what a normal person would think.

but then, she proposed something that aided my assumption.

“Want to play a game of chess?”

This girl is an idiot.

***

Let’s reverse time for a bit.

to be exact, to the 11th century.

A young girl lived in Rome.

she had a very, very happy life despite the period being the dark ages, where becoming a bandit is normal is a normal occurrence, and so is being robbed, raped and murdered.

the girl had a beauty that was referred as the reincarnation of the goddess Aphrodite, which secured both her and her parent’s lives hood by marring into the royal family.

she had blond hair that could be mistaken for golden threads.

her bright red eyes, charmed everything that entered its field.

if she was born a bit in the future, she would be indeed mistaken as a vampire.

she married emperor Lothair II, as his 3rd wife.

she lived quite normally, as any royalty would......but that's until the emperor married his 4th wife.

but still, the emperor loved the young girl the most.

in the end, she was the only one who had her youth left.

her beauty was truly befitting the emperor, or so the nobles thought.

but then again, humans are really interesting creatures.

in the end, the 4th wife ended up being jealous.

she somehow convinced the 1st and 2nd wife as well, and conspired together to get rid of her.

in the end, she was too beautiful.

she couldn’t help but charm the emperor, and used her charm in order to secure a safe spot for herself and her family.

so what awaited her next, was nothing special at all.

at least, not in that age.

she was......assassinated.

her water was poisoned.

the wives, who were foolish enough to poison a well, killed all within the palace.

not to mention, the wives failed to realize something.

no, perhaps they overlooked it.

the young girl, already knew about her soon demise.

she moved, and somehow secured a safe spot for her parents after her death

in the end, she knew that one day she’ll die because of her beauty.

in the end, beauty is a curse, and not a bless.

that same girl, rose to become a god in the after life.

she sought to change the world~the living world.

after hundred of years worth of effort, she finally reached the realm of the all mighty gods.

but then she was shocked to find out the truth.

the dead......cannot interfere with the living.

if so, is all her effort have been a waste?

indeed.

but the young girl refused to admit such, and sought to change the after life first, before changing the realm of the living.

at the same time, she realized that there simply wasn’t just a single realm.

the new goddess noticed that some worlds did not have gods, while other had many.

the world she grew in, did not have a god.

so she had a single objective.

change the council of heaven to allow the dead gods to interfere with the realm of the living.

and being assigned to her own world, as the only god of that world.

but then again, the other gods did not agree with her at all.

shunned, she was forced to move to the slums.

as a god, she had many abilities.

such as, seeing the flow of magic, even if she originally was human.

this is the only way for a human to see or even use magic.

but she came about something......something unexpected.

no, not something

but someone.

an irregularity.

an irregular.

she saw a human that can see magic......and he won against an elf.

the elf is a race that is known for their proficiency in magic.

yet, a human has used their magic against them.

if that isn’t an irregular occurrence, then what is?

she followed the man, up until he entered a bar.

there, he seemed to have a cheerful conversation with the owner of the place and a what seemed to be a friend of his.

but he suddenly went up and ran toward the corner.

the young goddess, who lost site of the man, decided to follow him.

she entered the store, with all gazes on her back, turned to the corner the man just went through.

she then couldn’t decide whether the man went through the door or up the stairs.

that's when she heard his voice, coming from inside the door.

she quickly decided to open the door on the spur of the moment, as soon as she realized she actually followed him inside the door.

but then......something shook her to the bone.

the young man was naked, stationed directly toward her.

she saw......his thing.

of course, the goddess herself is not a virgin after all.

but that was far too unexpected, which really surprised her.

but to make matters worse, the young man suddenly started shouting like a maiden.

the young goddess did not want anyone to find her, and out of embarrassment, hit the young man in the stomach.

she was thoroughly disgusted by what followed next, but she counted it as her own fault and not his.

she then proposed a game, it was a really simple game.....a test of friendship.

she had already realized that her victory is set in stone.

thus, she proposed a bet to the irregular man that he cant refuse.

and in return, she could keep the man for herself.

the man himself acted pretty stupid, but she realized that its just a facade.

she knew he would reveal his true self, sooner or later.

when she won, just as she expected, the young man looked pretty disappointed.

in the end, the young goddess thought that the man really cared about his friendship with this person....and felt sorry for putting cracks in it.

but she needed to introduce herself formally as the one with authority, and thus she decided to shake the hand of the person who is going to become her only servant.

***

“G-5. checkmate!”

the transparent young man said.

the young man felt the happiness of winning, and at the same time, the sorrow of saying goodbye to this ideal body.

in the end, nothing came out of his body, and that's his good old long wish.

but then, the girl did something unexpected.

she.......moved her hands in the air as if she was pressing buttons.

and then, with a ~woosh

winds came out of no where.

i had to close my eyes out of habit, and when i did open them, i gasped in shock.

in the end, the room that was in a mess, was cleaned new.

the shattered window was repaired, and the wall papers on the walls were replaced.

“With this, my promise is fulfilled! i honestly was bothered with this place’s dirtiness myself. too bad i was too lazy to actually press a few buttons......but after such an enjoyable game of chess, i couldn’t help but obey my promise. even though i didn’t expect you to win at all.”

said the young girl goddess.
