I have no regrets about my 2D world!

He turned around and shouted to the people who were still prostrating themselves on the ground behind him, "Everyone, get up! The Lord God is not angry. This is the Lord God's reward to us!"

Everyone gradually stood up, and when they heard the old man's words, they looked at the dry land next to them which was slowly becoming moist, and happy faces appeared on their faces.

"Chief, now we don't have to worry about food for the winter! Our tribe can survive!"

One of them suddenly said.

The old man also smiled and nodded.

"Then how should we thank God?" another person asked.

The old man lowered his head and thought for a moment. After a moment, he raised his head and looked at everyone seriously.

"Erect a statue and worship it from now on! As for its name..."

The old man noticed that the 'god' hadn't revealed its name. After thinking about the 'god's' general appearance, he said, "The name is 'Bai', the God of White!"

Chapter 2: The God of Leaking Arrows

After leaving the village, Bai did not explore the surrounding area extensively. After all, he did not know how powerful those so-called gods were. It would be bad if he encountered a powerful one.

And only after he left did he remember that he seemed not to have asked the old man in which direction the so-called residence of God was. But after thinking about it for a while, he gave up the idea of ​​going back. He guessed that the old man probably didn't know it either.

So now Bai just found a direction to move forward. In order to prevent running too far in one space jump and missing any information, he shortened the distance a little.

Sure enough, after the adjustments, it lived up to Bai's expectations. After several space jumps, he could sense the presence of humans again.

After confirming the distance, Bai came directly to the vicinity.

But if the place just now was considered a village, then the place in front of us is at least the size of several provinces, or even a country?

Bai thought silently, sensing the presence of millions of humans in this area. He also discovered a stronger presence among them, and the owner of that presence had already paid attention here.

This time Bai did not rush in. Since the owner of the breath had already discovered his existence, if he had no ill intentions, someone would probably come looking for him soon.

As expected, several witches came about half an hour later.

Wait, there are already shrine maidens in this era?

Without much time to think, several priestesses came to him. One of them walked up and bowed.

"Greetings, Lord God. We are here at your command to invite you in for a chat."

A clear voice came from the witch's mouth, stating her purpose simply and clearly.

Bai didn't say anything, just nodded, and was led in by several witches.

For Bai now, nothing can harm him unless he has targeted abilities in time and space, or abilities like cause and effect. If he really can't win, he can easily run away, so he boldly enters here.

After walking for a while, the shrine maiden brought him to a shrine and then left on her own.

Shrugging his shoulders and a smile on his face, Shiro walked in on his own.

The shrine is not very big. As soon as you enter, there is a wooden bridge leading directly to the hall. There are ponds on both sides of the bridge. There are some lotus leaves blooming in the middle, and you can see some frogs jumping around in them.

On the steps by the pond, a petite blonde figure squatted there, seemingly teasing the frogs.

Bai didn't disturb her, but just watched quietly.

After a while, it seemed that all the frogs returned to the pond. The petite figures finally raised their heads, but there was no expression on their delicate faces.

A child's voice, seemingly filled with doubt, rang out, "Are you seeking refuge from a strange god?"

"You also think I'm a god?"

Bai looked at her with some confusion. If those humans didn't know the situation and thought he was a god, it would be understandable, but this person in front of him seemed to be a real god, so why would they also think he was a god?

The petite figure tilted her head, seemingly confused as to why Bai would ask that.

"I can sense the faint power of faith in you, so you must be a newly born god. Aren't you seeking refuge here?"

Faith? When did he have the power of faith? Could it be the inexplicable energy he felt earlier?

Bai thought back to what had happened before. Shortly after he left the village, he felt a surge of energy chasing him. Unsure of the nature of this energy, Bai simply absorbed it and didn't integrate it into his body.

I hadn't thought of this energy until the 'girl' in front of me mentioned it.

Was it because of the rain that fell at that time?

After figuring out the reason for the incident, Bai said to the figure in front of him, "I'm not here to seek refuge. I just sensed the atmosphere here, so I came here to check it out and learn some things."

"Well, unknown god, welcome to visit me. This is my kingdom, the kingdom of Xieshi."

The 'girl' stood up and extended an invitation to Bai in front of her.

However, Bai was a little dazed. The moment the 'girl' mentioned the leak, Bai instantly connected the dots.

When Shiro left Gensokyo and went to the world of Date A Live, he only had the energy of space. But in the world of Date A Live, he gained the energy of time.

Although there was contact with Gensokyo afterwards, no space cracks were entered, so no accidents occurred.

This time, perhaps because the power of time and the power of space intersected, some accident occurred, bringing him to the current time point.

We are still in the world of Gensokyo, but the time has come to a long time ago.

At this time, there are still gods.

Putting aside his messy thoughts, Bai looked at the petite figure in front of him, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

"Now I suddenly want to seek refuge, is that okay? The god of arrows."

He already knew who the person before him was. The pinnacle of the indigenous gods, the deity who single-handedly controlled an entire kingdom, possessing the power to create Kun, a being called Suwako Shishiya.

After learning that the girl in front of him was named Suwako, Shiro gave up the idea of ​​leaving.

Although I can travel through time, I cannot stay for a long time. What's more, I don't know how long it is since I left, so I plan to stay here for now.

As for Date a Live, Rinne and I had already made preparations.

Tohka, who has her own aura, is formed by Rinne mixed with her own energy, so Tohka actually has the ability to open the world. And Rinne has also felt the aura of Gensokyo.

If she does not return to the Date A Live world for a long time, Rinne will secretly interfere with Tohka's attempt to open the connection between the two worlds to adjust the time of the two worlds or resolve some accidents.

Although he didn't know how much time had passed in the Date A Live world, Shiro was still a little relieved with the help of Rinne, the world's consciousness.

Since there are no problems over there for the time being, why not just go with the flow? Maybe something interesting will happen.

For example, right now...

"That's strange. Just now you refused, but now you agree. But I don't care."

Suwako tilted her head, then waved her hand and released a breath of energy onto Bai's body.

Bai felt it a little and found that as long as he felt this breath, he would know that this person was protected by Suwako.

"Then, unknown god, tell me your name."

"A name? Then let's just go with 'Bai'."

Suwako nodded.

"From now on, Bai will become the deity I protect, and his domain will also be mine."

Suwako looked serious, as if she was making a statement.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he changed back to the way he was when Bai first saw him, squatting there teasing the frog.

However, after the announcement just now, Bai didn't feel anything. Looking at Suwako squatting down, he shook his head helplessly and walked over.

Chapter 3: The Innocent God

The figure from behind enveloped the squatting Suwako and also startled some frogs on the shore, causing them to scatter.

Suwako stood up and turned to look at Shiro with an expressionless face.

"Well, do you believe me when I say I didn't mean it?"

Bai's expression was a little embarrassed. He was just curious about what Suwako was doing. He didn't think she was really playing with frogs, but he didn't expect that it was true and she even scared the frogs away.

"Is there anything you need?"

Suwako spoke softly, seeming to be somewhat dissatisfied.

He doesn't seem to be very angry. That's okay, Bai breathed a sigh of relief.

“I wonder what I need to do next?”

"Ok?"

Suwako made a sound through her nose, not understanding what this meant.

"Then let me put it another way. What do the humans, no, the gods, under Suwako-sama's protection need to do?"

Seeing that Suwako was a little confused, Bai thought that there was something wrong with the way he spoke, so he changed the words to something more understandable, but was met with Suwako's straightforward answer.

"I do not know."

This time it was Bai's turn to be confused.

What does "I don't know" mean? Is it because I don't know what kind of work to assign myself, or maybe...

Bai looked at Suwako's expressionless face in front of him. Her eyes were still clear without any messy thoughts.

Does she really not know what the humans or gods under her rule are doing?

Bai decided to give it a try.

"Then, Suwako-sama, will you allow those humans who request asylum to do anything?"

"will not."

"What about the gods?"

"You are the first god to ask for my protection."

Okay, now I understand why.

Those humans made requests, Suwako responded to them, bestowed some blessings, and then humans offered their faith. Then humans spread the word that the gods here only needed faith and nothing else, thus attracting more humans.

So those humans spontaneously established a kingdom around this place and worshipped the local gods, with Suwako becoming their king. This also explains why the things worshipped by humans that Bai saw when he came here were not touched.

It’s not that Suwako doesn’t like it, but she simply doesn’t understand the meaning of these humans doing this, so she has never touched those things.

Although they didn't know where those things ended up, whether they were thrown away or taken away by someone, the humans who offered them would not know all this. They would just think that the gods accepted them, and that the gods would protect them and satisfy their needs.

Perhaps because of good luck in recent years, there have not been any problems that Suwako cannot solve, but if nothing unexpected happens, I am afraid these problems will soon appear.

The village not too far from here was already experiencing drought, and this place would likely be no exception. And Suwako, possessing the ability to create Kun, would most likely not bring about any rain.

"Does Suwako-sama usually walk around your own kingdom? Or do you pay attention to what these humans are doing?"

"No. Why should I pay attention to them?"

"Then how do you usually manage this place?"

Bai's tone changed slightly, and he even dropped the word "adult" that he had been saying. He now wanted to know how this country could survive.

"Leave it to my subordinates, the Chongshen, to manage. They can use my power to organize the land, so there is no need for me to take action."

“Just preparing the land?”

"What you need?"

"What about water, which is the most important thing for human survival?"

"That's not something I can control."

"What if they need it?"

"They can leave, I won't stop them."

Bai couldn't help but cover his forehead and looked at Suwako helplessly.

"You'll be weaker when they're gone."

"I know."

Bai had thought Suwako didn't know the reasons behind these things, such as the fact that her own strength increased due to human belief, and he had intended to explain it to her in detail. But he didn't expect that she actually knew.

"you know?"

"A rabbit told me that."

"Rabbit? What did you say?"
