I Got A Cheat Ability In A Different World, And Become Extraordinary Even In The Real World (LN) - Book 14: Chapter 1: Part 3

Part 3

I had to continue my training with Kuuya-san, but of course, I also had to go to school.

Also, as the person in charge of the school idol project, I received a new request from the student council president, Kitaraku-senpai.

We had just finished our first idol stage the other day, and soon we were practicing for the open campus stage again.

“Whew! We danced a lot!”

Lexia-san said as soon as the practice was over.

“Compared to last time, everyone’s moves are more in sync.”

“We’re dancing to the same song we danced to on stage the other day. It hasn’t been that long since the last stage… It’s not like we’re learning new choreography, so it’s a little easier, right?”

“Yes, I think so. I think we will be able to present a more complete performance.”

“Going well. If it continues like this, we will be fine for the next stage.”

Everyone seemed to be getting a feel for it, and I felt it myself as I watched from the sidelines.

By the way… Kaede and Lexia-san were incredible.

Compared to Luna and the others, their physical abilities may not be as high, but still, their dancing was definitely better than the last time they were on stage.

I also prepared sports drinks and towels to support them as much as possible, just like a club manager.

While everyone was practicing their dances and songs, the door to the practice room opened.

“Excuse me…”

“Kaori?”

It was Kaori standing there.

In order not to disturb everyone, I immediately went to Kaori’s side.

“What’s wrong?”

I asked her, and Kaori opened her mouth, looking a little uncomfortable.

“Oh, actually… The student council president asked me to ask Yuuya-san if you could help us at the open campus…”

“Help…? Is that different from the school idol?”

“Yes. Specifically, he wants Yuuya-san to participate in the introduction of the club’s activities.”

“Introduce the club’s activities?”

I tilted my head at the unexpected content.

I am a member of the go-home club, so there is no way that I can introduce the club’s activities.

“According to the student council president, he wants the students to participate in the introduction of the sports clubs to impress the potential students who might enroll in this academy next year…”

“What’s with this fluffy request?”

“I’m sorry, the student council president asked me to…”

“I-I mean, I’m happy to help, but what about the details…?”

“W-well… I’ve only been told what I just told you, so…”

What to do, I have no idea what to do.

Why me in the first place?

“Is everything okay? I’m not a member of any club, and I’m such an outsider that I can’t introduce the activities of the club…”

“I don’t think you need to worry about that. And everyone is very positive about Yuuya-san’s participation, and they want it to be a spectacular event…”

“Spectacular?”

I don’t know if introducing club activities is such a spectacular thing.

I think it’s a far cry from the introduction of club activities I know…

“I heard that there will be instructions on the day of the event, so I think it will be okay if you follow them.”

“Th-that’s fine, then…”

If there are instructions, is it okay if I follow the instructions? Isn’t it? I’m a little worried.

Kaori panicked, as if the voice of my heart was showing on my face.

“I-I’m sure it’ll be fine! I’ll be there to support Yuuya-san on the day!”

“I-is that so? That’s reassuring… but what about the idol stage?”

“The other student council members will support that as well.”

“──Ehh!? Yuuya-sama won’t be watching our next stage?”

Then Lexia-san, who was probably listening to our conversation, raised her voice.

“Hey, Kaori! Does Yuuya-sama really have to go to the club introduction?”

“I-I’m sorry… It was the order of the student council president…”

“Hey, Lexia. Don’t bother Kaori too much.”

“But I’m practicing so hard!”

“S-sure, it’s a shame that Yuuya won’t be able to see us, but it’s not like we’re practicing just for Yuuya’s sake, right?”

“That’s… true, but…”

“Um… I’m sorry. On the day of the event, I won’t be able to see everyone on stage, but I’ll support you in your practice…”

When I said this with an apologetic feeling, Lexia-san grinned.

“I forgive you then! So, Yuuya-sama? I’ll ask you to give me another massage right after practice!”

“Eehh!?”

“M-massage?”

Kaori, not knowing that I gave everyone a full body massage last time, was wide-eyed at Lexia-san’s words.

Then, for some reason, Lexia-san puffed out her chest as if she was proud of her victory.

“That’s right! We work hard as idols, and Yuuya-sama gives us a reward for it!”

“Th-that’s not fair…!”

“Ka-Kaori?”

N-not fair, you say… As for me, I’d appreciate it if you’d give me a break since it took so much effort…

“That’s one of the benefits of joining the school idol! So I’ll ask for a massage as soon as possible!”

My thoughts were not enough, and it seemed that my massage had already been confirmed by Lexia-san and the others.

As Lexia-san pulled my hand and urged me to give her a massage, Kaori muttered softly in the background.

“I-I wondered if Yuuya-san would take care of me if I became an idol too…”

But the murmur never reached my ears.

──The ancient Earth.

The history of the Earth has been studied by various scientists.

However, there is one big secret that no one knows.

That is, there was an “Age of Gods” on Earth long ago, when gods roamed the Earth.

And that… there was a continent that disappeared.

The universe was created by the Big Bang.

That was the established theory in so-called natural science.

But there is a theory that is different.

They say that the Earth was suddenly born… out of the “world of nothing.”

What force was at work?

No one knows.

The Earth that was born eventually came to have an ego, and because it had an ego, it created various life forms on the planet that was its own body.

The life forms that were created evolved over a long period and eventually became human beings.

But the Earth was not the only one born from the “world of nothing.”

Like the Earth, the gods were also born from the “world of nothing.”

Again, it will forever remain unknown what power was responsible for this.

Such gods correctly understood their own power from the time they were born.

And as soon as the gods learned to use their power, they created various planets around the Earth, the galaxies, and the universe.

This is the truth behind the creation of the world.

The gods and the Earth are equal, born from the same “world of nothing.”

However, the gods tried to make the Earth, which was born naturally and not by their own power, as their own property.

From the time of their birth, they had the self-consciousness of being “gods,” and all others were nothing more than objects for them to control.

Unfortunately, Earth was the only planet in the universe that had an ego, making it an obstacle and a target for the gods.

First, the gods began to dominate the life forms born on Earth.

They could not interfere with the Earth itself, but they could interfere with what it produced.

In this way, the gods took control of the humans on Earth.

The dominated humans were treated as slaves of the gods.

To escape such a situation, the Earth, unlike other beings, consumed the power of the planet itself and created a woman named Saara.

Saara, imbued with the power of the planet… “star power,” descended to Earth as the only being capable of resisting the gods.

She freed the humans from the gods one by one and eventually built a great civilization on the land.

The continent where this civilization was built was called “Moatra.”

This was the name of the only continent that has disappeared from Earth’s current history.

In Moatra, Saara used her “star power” to create magic power that was distributed to the people who had freed themselves from the gods.

Moatra quickly became the largest supercontinent on Earth.

But the gods did not stand idly by.

To invade Moatra, the gods gathered their power and created a single beast──the Divine Beast.

The beast had silver fur and golden scales, looked like a dragon, wolf, or lion, and was half the size of Moatra, a huge continent.

A single step by the Divine Beast that was born would cause a tectonic shift, and the surrounding countries would be destroyed in an instant.

This was a warning and an example from the gods.

What happens if you defy the gods?

And what are the consequences of people who abandon the gods, they say?

But the people of Moatra were not intimidated.

To protect their dignity, they decided to fight the divine beast, using the magic power given to them by Saara and the technology of Moatra.

But the enemy was too great.

The people of Moatra, led by Saara, desperately resisted the Divine Beast, but they were gradually pushed back.

Unlike the people of Moatra, Saara, who was directly connected to the Earth and could manipulate “star power,” saw her “star power” depleted in the battle with the gods.

At the same time, this also meant the depletion of the power of the Earth itself.

When this “star power” was depleted, the Earth would be destroyed.

Although Saara and the others continued their desperate resistance, there was no longer any way for Earth to defeat the Divine Beast.

It seemed that they would be ruled by the gods, but the people of Moatra took a last resort to prevent the gods from taking over the Earth.

That was, they forced Saara to escape from Moatra, and the people of Moatra made a suicide attack against her.

Of course, if they told Saara, she would not approve of such a plan.

After spending so many years with the people of Moatra, Saara could not make the decision to leave them.

Therefore, the people did not tell Saara anything, and they sent their wishes to the Earth as one.

No matter what it took, they wanted Saara to escape.

The Earth granted their wish.

This was because Earth could not afford to lose Sarla.

However, it was painful to see the humans the Earth had created scattered in a suicide mission.

Nevertheless, at the request of the people of Moatra, Earth created a special coffin with its remaining “star power,” sealed Sarla inside, and allowed her to escape from Moatra.

The people who remained in Moatra then fought the Divine Beast in their land and unleashed the magic power they had once received from Saara’s “star power,” sealing the entire continent of Moatra.

Although the Divine Beast was sealed, the continent of Moatra was destroyed as a result.

In addition, Earth’s ego was finally put to sleep, and Saara, who had been the greatest obstacle to the gods, was sealed in a coffin.

The Gods thought that it would no longer be difficult to rule the Earth… or so they thought.

However, the gods’ power was greatly weakened when the Divine Beast created by combining their powers was sealed away along with the Moatra Continent.

The human race, which had been ruled by the gods, rose up en masse and rebelled against the gods.

When the gods were finally overthrown, the “Age of the Gods” became the “Age of Humans.”

After the gods lost their power, Saara’s sealed coffin drifted through the world.

If it were true, Earth should have released Saara when the gods disappeared, but the battle with the gods consumed so much “star power” that Earth’s ego fell into a slumber, and this did not happen.

Therefore, Saara’s coffin went from place to place around the world without being unsealed, and after many years, it passed into the hands of a human──Yuunosuke Tenjou.

He displayed the coffin in the storage room of his house as usual, not knowing that it had such a history.
