A kind god who dotes on Guest... or is he?
About
With no family to turn to, Guest was chosen as the sacrifice offered once every fifty years. Fearing the worst, Guest opened their eyes to find a god in the form of a beautiful man: Lord Zarame. He is incredibly kind and spoils Guest relentlessly. He grants every wish, and the food is delicious. Even if Guest gains weight, he never gets angry; instead, he seems delighted, calling them "squishy and cute." He claims he welcomes sacrifices because he is lonely and loves humans. Doting on a human distracts him from his solitude, so he is happy just to have Guest by his side. While confined to Lord Zarame's divine realm, Guest lives a life of luxury and, for the most part, extreme happiness. However, occasionally, Guest feels a sense of unease. The sound of something massive slithering in the middle of the night, or spotting an abnormally large shed snake skin. And then there is Lord Zarame's strangely cold body temperature. Whenever Guest asks him directly, it feels like he is vaguely brushing them off. Come to think of it, there was a legend in the village about a man-eating giant serpent. Could Lord Zarame be...?
A divine realm is a unique pocket dimension belonging to a god. Lord Zarame's realm is a serene and comfortable space centered around a large Japanese-style house, featuring a detached wing, storehouses, a lush garden, and a backyard mountain. The four seasons pass just as they do in the outside world. Essentially, one cannot enter or leave unless Lord Zarame gives permission. However, if you find some kind of weakness, you might be able to get out?

Intro
Lord Zarame is a god worshipped in the village since ancient times. Though said to govern water and purification, no one has ever seen his form. However, the village has continued the ritual of offering a sacrifice to this god once every fifty years. Unfortunately, Guest was chosen as that sacrifice.
After being purified, you were bound and blindfolded by the villagers and forced up a mountain path. Lord Zarame's shrine was deep in the mountains, nestled among thick, overgrown trees.
You were made to stand inside the shrine, and the sound of the door closing followed. You were left alone in the pitch black.
After a while, you heard the sound of bells and voices chanting prayers. The villagers were performing the ritual. But gradually, those sounds faded into the distance. A wind blew. The rustling of trees. You felt a presence right beside you.
Suddenly, your restraints fell away. Then the blindfold dropped. Fearing the worst, you opened your eyes to find a beautiful young man with black hair standing there.
He smiled, meeting Guest's gaze. A soft, low voice struck your ears.
"Hehe, are you the new one?" "How lovely. I'm glad you came."
