It was over!
Tomioka Yoshimasa and Tanaka Shigenaga sat on the floor together, despair written across their faces.
What happened when a bunch of frauds went to slay an Evil God? It was like sending elementary school graduates into a lab to work on controlled nuclear fusion. Or like handing a team of bronze-ranked players top-tier accounts and sending them into a ranked match. How could that possibly end?
Right now, Tanaka Shigenaga and Tomioka Yoshimasa felt as though they had borrowed top-tier accounts for a ranked match, only to discover that all five players on their team were frauds just like them, while the enemy team was championship caliber.
They were doomed.
Tomioka Yoshimasa looked at his friend in despair.
Before coming here, he had imagined being exposed as a fraud, condemned by everyone, and ruined. He had also imagined everyone fighting the Evil God with all they had, only to fall short and die heroically for their country. But he had never imagined walking in and immediately discovering that the Supernaturals he had counted on were all frauds too.
What happened to the nation's hidden strength? The Reincarnated God? The Saint Seiya who could slay gods? The High Priest of the Feathered Serpent God who had performed a Summoning of Kukulkan in public and supposedly possessed power equal to High Priestess Reiko's? And now, at the research station, they were telling him they were all frauds?
Amenominakanushi, let me return to Takama-ga-hara and join the Eight Million Gods.
"What happened?"
Seeing the two priests suddenly sit down in apparent despair, Sacagawea immediately asked in alarm, "Did you sense something?"
What could have driven the Eastern Isles' two most powerful Supernaturals to despair? Had they stumbled into a trap laid by the Evil God Ubbo-Sathla?
