For someone who had to bring thousands of his friends just to fight him centuries ago, this nameless person really had a big mouth. And while Val was still level-headed enough not to do anything rash when he was this much weaker than he was in the past, the Land God still couldn't resist a quip. Turning back to face the man, who's face, on second glance, now looked more like that of an arrogant plebian, Val said with a smile, “Were you even in that fight, boy? I must apologize, but Gods rarely take notice of ants.”
Still, the threat that he posed now was very, very real, and a few centuries of time was a long time for one to improve their combat abilities. It was enough of a threat that Val breathed a sigh of relief when Yui arrived, along with that angry Hellhound in tow. Or at least, he would have, if it wasn't for the fact that another student popped up, with no sense of what was going on.
And then, to top off all this, he could even hear the raging of another student gone wild, somewhere in the nurse's office. Allowing himself to close his eyes for three seconds, he assessed the situation there as well, where a first year fairykind was going crazy...in the prescence of Aram.
Of course, there also had to be all this very, very human drama regarding past betrayals and stuff. Gosh, did Yui steal Dios's woman or something a few decades ago?
The God sighed. It seemed like the rumors were true after all, and his job was definitely going to be a pain in the ass. So much rescuing. Back in the day, it would be normal for a commoner to run away at the mere thought of danger, because they knew that you only lived once, so you shouldn't put it to waste. Now, it seemed that people lacked common sense, thinking that, because you only lived once, you should live as dangerously as possible. For experience or whatever.
Welp, time to prioritize.
He turned his attention to the muscular young man that had followed the Headmistress first. With caution in his tone, Val said, trying to direct the man's attention away from Dios, “Hey, here's your chance to do God's work. See the kid beside him? Get him out, quickly. You're fast too, right?”
Without confirmation, Val then disappeared, unravelling into mist-like strands of blue light. Reforming beside the fallen ninja-janitor that just got chokeslammed by the neighborhood burning-hand-asshole, the four day old God grabbed both of her hands, and then ran off, dragging her with him. She was unconscious, after all, so hopefully, she wouldn't mind.
Dios was currently having a western standoff with Yui too, so hopefully, he wouldn't mind.
Aram should have common sense, so hopefully, he would stop whatever he was trying to do to that girl before she went crazy.
Gosh, that's really a lot of hopes. Is this what it feels like to be a weakling who can't even destroy a hundred monsters? Damn, sucks to be human.
