Chapter 38: Let the Young Lady Brush My Teeth
“That was the Creation Language!”
“Why does the Giant God possess total, absolute resistance to the Creation Language!?”
“Even… even…”
The Prophet trembled in awe.
As a widely experienced elder, he understood the immense difficulty of resisting the Creation Language. Any creature, even a deity, would endure agony and confusion from soul-shaking reverberations after resisting it.
That momentary weakness was when cunning foes seized the initiative.
Yet this “Giant God” not only completely resisted the Outer Gods’ chant of the Creation Language—he even counter-killed!
“Those Outer Gods suddenly charged at the Giant God like maddened beasts…”
“Could this be a backlash!?”
“It proves one truth—the Giant God’s mental fortitude and the wisdom within his colossal soul utterly overwhelmed the blood octopus deities.”
“Therefore…”
The once-arrogant Prophet, who had dared warn deities and dictate paths to the Giant God, finally knelt in heartfelt reverence.
“I once assumed the Giant God’s silence toward us and his followers stemmed from ineloquence—that his simple mind and quiet nature made him unremarkable among gods, incapable of commanding followers with radiant words.”
“But now I see…”
“How gravely I erred!”
“The Giant God’s silence flows from a mind too vast, too profound!!”
“No mortal soul comprehends him!”
“What does he desire!?”
“Reform? Ruin? The gods’ twilight? To shatter the hypocritical old order!?”
“Or to forge a new world upon the ashes of destruction!?”
The Prophet’s eyes blazed with revelation.
“Of course!”
“Yes! This alone aligns with the Giant God’s ambition!”
…
Meanwhile, Sulya and her Solar Knight sisters harbored no such complex thoughts. Filled with pride, they knelt in their customary prayer.
“Under the great Giant God’s protection, we stand truly invincible!”
“Nothing shall hinder us now!”
“The great Giant God will surely guide us from triumph to triumph!”
…
As this prideful certainty swelled through their ranks—
“BOOM—!”
The Giant God moved!
“Eh?”
“Ah—!”
The "Giant God’s Radiance" was surprisingly thrown off the Divine Body by the Giant God, rolling into the water.
Since the Giant God’s Radiance could no longer carry anyone inside, the Solar Knights stood on its back.
With this roll, many unprepared Solar Knights, except for Sulya who was tied to the “Giant God’s Radiance,” were thrown out.
Fortunately, they were in the water, where buoyancy helped; the Solar Knights would not be seriously harmed, and even if they fell off the ship, they could still “swim” back.
“Why?”
The Solar Knights were a bit confused.
“Why did the Giant God punish us like this?”
“We clearly completed the Giant God’s task!”
To the Solar Knights, the god suddenly interrupting their prayers was undoubtedly a warning and a lesson!
At that moment, the living saint Sulya was the first to react.
Her loud and powerful voice floated with the current, advising her sisters.
“Sisters! Think back to our previous prayers! ‘The Giant God protected us,’ ‘The Giant God blessed us,’ ‘Unrivaled in the world’…”
“Look at how self-satisfied that was! How lazy!”
“The Giant God may have seen the gaps in our hearts with sharp insight; He was warning us not to be arrogant, not to ask too much from the gods.”
“The Giant God owed us nothing; instead, He had always been bestowing kindness and help.”
“Perhaps the Giant God had always supported and cared for us, but ambitious humans could not always rely on the Giant God’s protection!”
“We must never forget the spirit we had when we drove the ‘Giant God’s Radiance’ to charge at the Thunder Scorpion, Sankalabi!”
“What the Giant God admired was the song of humans standing tall and independent!”
Hearing this, the female knights all lowered their heads in shame.
“Giant God, we were wrong.”
“We should not have such lazy thoughts…”
“Please punish us!”
As these voices of self-reproach and repentance rose into the air, the Giant God also “responded in due time.”
“Whoosh—!”
The fierce currents surged again, but this time, the Giant’s movements were much gentler; the Solar Knights had time to cope.
As they calmly steadied themselves in the currents and lifted their heads once more, filled with gratitude and repentance, they gazed up at the Giant God’s magnificent visage, only to discover…
“Ah—!”
The Giant God’s enormous jaws opened, like a dark door leading to the Abyss!
However, He did not make any further movements, nor did He intend to swallow these female knights who had committed the “sin of arrogance.”
Sulya quietly knelt beside the Giant God, her brow furrowed as she tried hard to receive the divine will pouring from Him.
She succeeded!
“Was this your will?”
“I understood!”
The living saint turned to the slightly confused female knights and said, “Be grateful!”
“The Giant God must have received your prayers!”
“He was pleased with the spirit of ‘criticism and self-criticism’ you all showed! He was also happy with how you completed your previous mission!”
“He was now inviting you to enter the great mouth of His Divine Body and receive the reward of divine grace!”
“Board the ‘Giant God’s Radiance,’ and let us receive the divine grace together!”
—-
“Hmm…”
“This little bug serves people… wait, serves fish quite well.”
“I was so comfortable that I fell asleep with my mouth open.”
Trilobite watched as that trilobite left, fully satisfied, nodding his head.
He had seen reports about “fish doctors” in his past life, where little fish cleaned the leftover food and parasites from the mouths of larger fish and cleared fungi and skin flakes from their skins.
No matter how fierce those big fish were, they stayed still in front of these “doctor fish.”
When some aggressive big fish entered the breeding season, male fish often got hurt from fighting; at that time, long lines formed by the coral reefs where the “doctor fish” lived, just like a public hospital packed with patients waiting.
“Hmm, now I also had my own ‘doctor.’”
Trilobite shook his head, feeling refreshed, as if he had just enjoyed a great massage.
Wasn’t this like having someone brush his teeth for him?
Anyone who had seen “Monogatari” knew this was a delightful feeling.
“Now, I should take a look…”
Trilobite opened the System to check his Chaos Energy.
[Chaos Energy: 4536/1000 (Can enter the evolution interface)]
“Which one should I choose…”
[So… should I further increase the size?]
Rarely, the System Lady did not suggest “eyes” to Trilobite anymore, and her tone was no longer bossy; it turned a bit “timid.”
It was like a newbie speaking before a top student.
She probably had been fully convinced by Trilobite.
Maybe, by Trilobite’s old thinking, the System Lady’s idea made sense.
But…
“No, no, no, let’s talk about that later.”
He changed his mind.
“I thought it was time to fix up my little nest? But this shark body isn’t good for digging.”
“So…”
Lost in thought back in his nest, Trilobite had no idea his “spawn” and the winning Solar Knights were suddenly in big danger!
This danger didn’t come from chaos!
