It is indeed difficult for people to believe unrealistic words without any evidence, even if there is strong strength as a guarantee. Not to mention that this is the first time for several people to meet, and they are not familiar with each other.

"If that's the case, then I'll provide some proof."

Xia Zhi stretched out his hand and tapped the table lightly twice.

"..."

"..."

Nothing happened.

There was no fluctuation of divine or magical power, nor any abnormal situation, as if the boy had simply knocked on the table.

But is it really that simple?

Suwako frowned slightly, looked up at Xia Zhi, as if she wanted to ask something, but suddenly stopped talking.

It was not until then that she realized that the sky outside the window had darkened without her noticing.

"It's getting dark?" A puzzled look appeared on Kofutani Sanae's face.

“…No.” Kanako shook her head and said solemnly: “It’s the ‘sky’…that disappeared.”

What does disappeared mean?

Kofutani Sanae looked puzzled.

Soon after, looking at the huge blue ball of light that appeared outside the window and occupied almost half of her vision, she felt that she roughly knew what this sentence meant.

"What, what is that!?" The girl's voice became a little stammering because of shock.

Logically speaking, as Feng Zhu who serves two gods, she has seen a lot of the world and should not be so surprised.

But unfortunately, the scene unfolding before her was too unrealistic and too shocking. She believed that no matter who came over, they would not perform better than her.

"A celestial body called a star, with a mass about eighteen times that of the sun and a surface temperature of about twelve thousand degrees Celsius."

Xia Zhi answered the girl's question:

"But if you're asking about its name, I'm sorry, it's just a star I randomly chose. It doesn't have a name yet, not even a number. Of course, if you like, you can give it a random name. It doesn't matter..."

Anyway, everything will have to be rebuilt in the end, so Xia Zhi doesn't care much about this.

"No, that's not what I want to ask..."

Because she was so shocked, the girl took a long time to reorganize her words.

"I mean, what the hell is going on out there?"

As she spoke, Kofutani Sanae glanced at her two gods and found that they also had their mouths tightly shut, their eyes fixed on the window, silent and thinking about something. She knew that they were probably just like her, confused about the situation and couldn't figure out the truth of the matter.

"Are we...really in outer space?"

Kofuya Sanae asked cautiously.

Or is this all a holographic projection, or some kind of illusion?

When faced with things that are beyond one's own cognition, people will always involuntarily explain them using principles that they can understand, and try hard to maintain their fragile worldview. This is human nature, and even the girl who is Feng Zhu is no exception.

"Yes and no."

Xia Zhi knocked on the table again, and the gravity that had been maintained was finally cancelled, and everything in the room floated up.

"This is indeed space, but it is not the space you are familiar with."

He snapped his fingers again, and the structure of the entire room instantly disintegrated into countless particles and disappeared, completely exposing the few people in the deep and boundless universe.

At the same time, this vast universe composed of countless gorgeous galaxies and brilliant starlight was finally fully displayed before them.

"How is it? It's spectacular, isn't it?"

Xia Zhi turned around, with his back to the huge blue star, and said to the three girls in front of him with a smile:

"Welcome to this universe created by me."

Chapter 108: Can God's business be called prying? That's called fair competition!

Shocked, doubtful, incredible...

Sanae Kofutani felt as if her worldview had been severely impacted.

Although she knew that this new god was very powerful, to be this powerful was still far beyond the girl's understanding.

If everything before his eyes is true, then wouldn't he be like the God of Creation?

No, no, no, there must be something wrong.

"It's true." Suwako finally spoke after a long silence.

"Huh?" Kofutani Sanae was stunned.

“Yeah.” Ignoring the surprised look on the girl’s face, Kanako nodded and said, “I can no longer feel the connection between the shrine and faith.”

As far as she knew, there was no way to sever the connection between a god and faith. This was absolute, whether it was in another world, a fantasy world, or another god's kingdom. There would be no exceptions.

There is only one explanation for the current situation: they have come to a new world that is completely isolated from the original world in terms of cause and effect.

Regardless of whether the boy's statement is true or not, this alone is shocking enough.

"I originally thought he was just an ordinary new god, but I didn't expect him to be the creator of a world?" Kanako looked at 18 Xiazhi meaningfully and said, "You really gave us a big surprise."

There was no need to doubt the other party's words. In this world where cause and effect and faith were completely isolated, Kanako herself was fine, but Suwako, the indigenous god, had her power suppressed to the lowest level, and even maintaining her own existence was becoming difficult. In this situation, no matter what the other party wanted to do to them, it would be easy, and there was no need to go to great lengths to deceive them with such lies.

Sometimes, the most absurd judgment is often the truth that is closest to the facts. In her long life experience, Kanako has long understood this truth.

"I see. If that's true, we are willing to believe what you said." Suwako nodded and said.

As expected of a god who has seen the world, she remains calm even in this situation, as if the person whose faith she relied on for survival was cut off is not her at all.

Only Sanae Kofutani stood beside her with a confused look on her face: Am I the only one who suspects?

"But since you have the ability to create a world, what do you need from us?" Suwako asked Xia Zhi curiously.

The transaction was equal, and she had no intention of taking advantage of Xia Zhi... It was undoubtedly foolish to have such an idea when facing a god who had the power to create the world.

But at the same time, value is given by people. For a creator god, whatever he wants can be easily obtained. Suwako doesn't think there is anything worthwhile about her that he would value.

Faith?

Obviously, he doesn't need it. The faith and willpower he has accumulated are enough to restore him to a state that is much stronger than in his heyday.

Power?

What power can compare to the power of creating a world? Even if I give him my power directly, he may not appreciate it, right?

As for money, it is even more impossible.

In that case, the only thing left is...

Suwako lowered her head and looked at herself.

"..."

Not realizing that a certain lolita god was frantically imagining things, Xia Zhi continued to speak to himself:

"As you can see, there is no trace of life in this world."

"Um..." Kofutani Sanae raised her hand and said weakly, "I'm sorry, I didn't see that..."

Rather, it would be incredible if we could see the existence of life on this scale, or is there really stellar life in this world?

Xia Zhi thought about it and it seemed to be true.

"It doesn't matter. As long as you know what's going on, that's enough." He waved his hand and said.

"Because I'm still a novice, there are always some small mistakes in the creation of the universe and life, and I can't achieve the effect I want."

"But what happens when I succeed?"

"When this world can continue to exist stably, and life and civilization can develop normally, how many lives will exist in this world by then? Don't forget, there are no other gods in this world except me."

Xia Zhipo looked at the three girls meaningfully and continued, "The faith of the entire world should be enough to solve the problem of your existence and power, right?"

His words were full of temptation, but it was undeniable that what he said was indeed deeply attractive to Suwako and the others.

"So... what's the price?" Kanako asked the most crucial question.

Is there a free lunch? Maybe, but it certainly won't be expensive.

She could not imagine what the price would be for the faith of an entire world.

Therefore, she was also curious about what kind of answer the young creator god in front of her would give.

"I told you, because I'm a novice and have no experience in managing the world and civilization, leaving it alone will deviate from my expectations, and intervening will make a mess, so I need an experienced leader... ahem, God, to give me the necessary help."

Xia Zhi extended his hand to the three girls and said with a smile: "Come to me and help me manage this world. I can promise you everything you want."

"How is it? Is it a good deal?"

Before the world was even created, he had already started looking for a manager, thinking about how to become a hands-off boss and an offline monarch.

To put it nicely, this is called preparing for a rainy day and storing grain to prevent famine. To put it bluntly, it is actually a lazy nature. Before the most difficult "entrepreneurship period" is over, you want to sit back and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Your mind is full of how to fish comfortably. This world is unlucky enough to have such a creator god.

"But, this also means that we will be completely bound to this world and will never be able to separate, right?"

This is equivalent to having two ancient gods and one modern god work for him for the rest of his life.

Kanako looked at Xia Zhi deeply and said, "You have quite a big appetite."

"Also, there is another question." Suwako breathed a sigh of relief, raised her head and looked at Xia Zhi again and asked, "You just said that life and civilization will not exist in this world until you succeed. So how long will this time take?"

Ten years? A hundred years? A thousand years?

Suwako and the others couldn't possibly wait that long. The lack of faith in modern times had already made it difficult for her to maintain her power and existence. If she waited for hundreds of more years, she would probably disappear from this world first because of the decline of her faith.

By then, no matter how much faith one has, it will be useless. Even if a new "Kaguya Suwako" is born from faith, it will not be the same Suwako as it is now.

So, how long does this most important time take?

"Well..." Xia Zhi thought for a moment and replied, "Probably tomorrow."

Suwako: “…”

Chapter 109: To Save the Shrine, Become an Idol!

When they returned to the world again, the room that had turned into elementary particles and dissipated had been restored to its original state by Xia Zhi. By the way, he also secretly replaced the green tea in his cup with Sprite of similar color.

He did this process very covertly, and the three girls were still in shock and thought, so they shouldn't be discovered... right?

Looking at the transparent liquid in the teacup with bubbles constantly bubbling out, Xia Zhi hesitated for a moment, thinking uncertainly.

"Well... So, how have you considered it?" Xia Zhi coughed lightly, picked up the teacup and took a sip, then looked at Suwako and the others and asked.

Suwako and Kanako looked at each other and saw each other's thoughts in each other's eyes.

There is actually no need to think too much about this matter.

Originally, they had only one way to continue to exist, but the appearance of Xia Zhi provided them with another way.

If we use a figurative metaphor to describe these two paths, one side can be likened to an old company with a sound organizational structure, normal financial operations, and no major problems, but it has been established for a long time and even if you don't climb up from the bottom after entering it, it is impossible to get to the top all at once, and you need all kinds of intrigue to get enough benefits.

On the other hand, there is a lot of work to be done, and you have to do everything yourself. Any problem needs to be solved by yourself. If not 996, it is at least 007. But as long as you join, it is almost equivalent to becoming one of the first few founding senior executives of a new company with sufficient authority and almost unlimited sources of funds.

Not to mention, the boss of this new company seems to have a very good personality and is very easy-going. He seems very easy to deal with... ahem, very easy to talk to.

From the perspective of one's own interests and the future, it is obvious which path to choose, right? After all, not everyone is as lazy as Xia Zhi.

"But, I have another question." Suwako glanced at Tofutani Sanae, then looked at Xia Zhi and asked, "Why us?"

"There are more than a few gods in this world. There are many gods who are older than us, more powerful than us, and more experienced than us. Why did you choose us as your partners?"

"Also, even if we sign that almost eternal contract, I honestly don't think we have the value to match the faith of the entire world."

Not to mention that in the process of managing the world, Xia Zhi will inevitably have to give them some authority, so this is a win-win situation for them.

"I want to know, what is your standard for judging the 'value' of a thing?" Suwako asked, staring at Xia Zhi closely.

"The reason why I chose you is actually very simple, because you are the first gods I met." Xia Zhi replied in a matter-of-fact tone.

"As for your question about the basis on which I judge the 'value' of a thing... it's okay for me to tell you."
