"O-oh? You can speak."
The Goddess' eyes trembled. She looked at him again and noticed that he wasn't afraid at all. He exuded the sa confidence he had before she controlled him.
"Yes and I have a ssage for you."
"ssage for ?" the Goddess tilted her head cutely. If Lawrend wasn't solemn, he would have appreciated such an expression from her.
"Your past told that humans have fought their way through the Darkness and Fire Era," Lawrend said. He didn't know what it ant, but he could guess that it might be related to the city that he saw.
"Y-You…!"
Surprised by his words, the Goddess widened her eyes. A wave of emotion appeared on her face, and she stared at him incredulously.
"I may understand now why the Creator sent to you."
Lawrend took a step forward. He faced this Goddess with no fear and anxiety.
"You no longer have the Will of the Goddess. You are an empty shell that has degraded with the passage of ti."
Lawrend's eyes stared straight into her soul. He saw the billions of years that the Goddess had experienced. She was initially a human being, but the passage of ti slowly eroded her soul, and she was no longer the sa.
"That's not true…"
"What is your Will then?" Lawrend asked, his voice growing louder and his distance closing on her.
"My Will is… to protect the Human World!"
"Wrong!"
"Your Will is to protect the Human World and… to make humans rule forever!"
Once she heard Lawrend's words, a vast Will from the depths of the universe descended onto this place. A blurry gray shadow appeared behind the Goddess.
"C-Creator!?" the Goddess screeched and turned around.
"You are forever bound to this world because of your Will. Your Will is no longer to protect the world or to make humans rule forever. Since so, you are free."
A few seconds later, the oppressing aura vanished, and the Goddess was left standing there. An odd feeling filled her chest as the strange power that kept her in this world had disappeared.

Lawrend opened his eyes. He had returned to his world, and a multitude of emotions swirled in his heart. He could sense that the control of the Goddess over him had been cut off by so power.
"What is happening?" Lawrend asked out loud.
He looked up at the stars above his world and wondered what they ant. He took a step forward, and two maid hands appeared in the air, forming a heart-shaped portal to the Spirit World.
When he ca out, Lawrend's won left their temporary houses and flew over to him. They surrounded him like flies and imdiately noticed the strange energy that covered him.
"Master…?" Aezel asked, unsure.
"It's still ," Lawrend replied and smiled.
"You feel so different. It's like, you're a step above us," Elena said.
"A Sub-God is very close to the divinity, after all."
Lawrend nodded at them.
"What are the plans now, Master?" Ella asked.
"Are we going to attack the Goddess?" Ember added.
"Wait, who said that you're all going to participate?"
Lawrend couldn't help but do a double take of his maids. They were all enthusiastic about using their new magic against the Goddess.
"Isn't that why Master gave us his Divine Magics?" Ramiela responded.
"..."
Lawrend beca speechless. He didn't think that it could be seen that way. A wry smile appeared on his face.
"Co with ."
Lawrend didn't say anything much. A heart-shaped portal ford in the air, and he waved at his maids.
"Master, your magic has beco weird…" Ella muttered, staring at the two silhouettes of hands covered with white gloves. It was very obvious that those hands were a maid's.
"Ehem. Let's not pay attention to that. Co to my world. I can't let any of you beco hurt."
Lawrend rubbed his nose in embarrassnt. He didn't know how to explain to them that his energy was called "Maid Energy". It wasn't cool or legendary, but rather, it seed la in comparison.
"We want to fight with you, Master," Elena said, and she stepped forward to stand before him.
The determination in her eyes showed her desire to help.
"Master, you can't expect us to wait for good news, right?" Ember continued.
The two of them were Divine Mages and were confident in their abilities. Even if they wouldn't be able to help much, they should still be able to offer so sort of assistance.
"Alright. I promise I will call upon you girls if there is a chance," Lawrend replied, feeling tired.
"A promise is a promise, Master. Fufufu," Aezel chuckled.
The whole group nodded their heads in agreent. Lawrend believed that they were trying to peer-pressure him.
Nevertheless, Lawrend convinced his maids, and his children followed them.
With his biggest worries taken care of, Lawrend summoned the energy of the Spirit World and covered himself with it.
The power of two worlds supported him and brought his aura higher than before. He looked like a Sub-God, but it wasn't wrong to say that he was a God.
Lawrend found a portal to the Human World and opened it with a flick of his finger. He passed through and appeared under the ocean.
A chaotic energy ravaged the whole Human World. The Will of the Goddess unraveled and was scattered all over the place.
"What is going on?" Lawrend looked at the Human World with shock and disbelief.
He flew out of the ocean and extended his soul to the whole world. He found that the natural laws were starting to rupture into pure energy.
It would be correct to say that the world was about to end.
"I can't let this happen."
Lawrend sensed the direction of the Goddess and flew there.
After a few minutes of flight, he arrived on top of a mountain. A woman kneeled on the peak and faced the world as parts of her body slowly eroded into dust.
