That day, when I was out shopping in the village of Frata, I was helping Lycra organize a scaffold of construction at the village church.
"No, thanks to Lycra, we're going fast!
People in the church were bowing their heads to show their gratitude.
"No, it's about this much before breakfast."
"I wish Lycra and her family luck. Oh, this is sanctified lamb in church, so take it if you like."
"Meat! Glad to hear it! You will not leave everything behind! Thanks!
Lycra's tension went up at that moment!
Was it for meat? But it's just a matter of being driven out all the time at work because you have the power, so it won't be bad as a drop.
And then, because of that, I decided to go home with Lycra.
"Even now, this world is polytheistic ~"
That came to my mind with the help of Lycra's church.
Perhaps I should say that the fantasy world is more like the Roman Empire than it is European-like, because it believes in the Spirit or in all sorts of gods.
"I don't know how difficult religion is, but there are many races living, and I wonder if more gods believe in nature"
"Ah, right. There are all kinds of people living there."
There are quite a few species that speak people's language alone, and that is what makes them common sense, so they may have stopped by polytheism.
"I'm sure if you ask Sharsha around, she'll tell you a lot."
"Oh, we have exactly the experts."
I slapped my hand with a pong.

That night I said to Sharsha, "I want to know about God," and Sharsha barely put her chest up. This is motivating.
"I want you to leave it to me. I'm giving a lecture now."
And Sharsha brought a hell of a thick book.
The title is "The Great Dictionary of Divinity". Wow... this is all about God, isn't it? How many are there...
But isn't that strange? Even Japan should have sold Buddha's Dictionary and God's Dictionary. There are so many gods in the world that I can't count.
"Okay, I want to give a lecture"
"Yes, thank you"
It also feels weird to learn from my daughter, but at her age, Sharsha is over fifty, so she's not uncomfortable as a college professor.
"About a thousand and five hundred years ago, there were university philosophers who advocated that God was a concept created by man. But the phrase that became a religious trial, many gods appeared on the floor, and the philosopher was banished from the university."
I was reminded of how different this world is from my previous life because I am soggy......
"That's right...... It's not weird for God to come out..."
I have never seen God in this world. But the Spirit has seen many.
The Spirit is very naturally an object of faith in some regions, and may I say that God is real with it?
There is probably a God in this world.
I don't know if you have absolute power, but maybe you do.
So, probably, but theology and all that has evolved a lot differently, too.
Sharsha's lecture continues.
"In today's theology it is assumed that God exists. However, how many gods there are is meant to be unrecognizable to those who are finite"
"Yeah, I know more or less around there."
"And the main theme of theology these days is' About God's Definition '. Wherever we take God from, opinions are diverse and inconsistent."
Well, there are so many who have lived for hundreds of years...
From where is "God," and from where is "the guy who's just amazing," it's hard.
"Some scholars advocated that those who lived more than a thousand years might be God, but it was retreated"
"According to that definition, both Pecora and Belzebub are gods..."
It may be like God at the time of the Demon King, but it is impossible to believe in that child... There is too little divinity...... You can't worship a kid who's been screwing around for a little while and is imitating idols......
"To conclude first, 'Everyone thinks God is God' is now"
"It's a calming conclusion when a definition controversy arises, it!
I mean, is it anything?
In fact, it's a world of everything...... You have no choice...
"Note that the epidemic God also occurs everywhere every year. This God is supposedly profitable, and we see cases everywhere of gaining more believers. In time, the majority will soon be abandoned, some will be long faithed and will only be settled as traditional"
"I see...... Maybe that's how religion works..."
As I recall a while ago when I became a fox, Inari and others must have spread rapidly during the Edo period, although they had existed in Japan for a long time. I've seen you say that on TV.
So Sharsha shut the book down.
"From here on out, it will be about individual gods. But my mother wouldn't want to know there, so I'm gonna stop here."
"Yeah. I know what's wrong with you. Thanks."
It ended sooner than I thought.
I only found out that God is an ambiguous thing in this world.
"By the way, if it's an epidemic god these days, there's a Meggermega god"
Something about a god with a retarded name...
"When I utter the word of Mega Mega God, I am told that my powers will gush, my body will heal, only one of my missing socks will be found, and my love luck will be up. There are now more believers everywhere in the kingdom"
"Wait, wait! You're a lame little bitch!
Oh, my God, they said they'd find socks. That's how well you can believe it...
Sharsha opened a different book from the thick one. The title is' The Latest Epidemic God! This God is amazing! '. You suddenly loosened your writing name.
"It goes into detail here"
Mega Mega Speak the Word of God and it will have a surprising effect!
