This plot was created for personal satisfaction to enjoy Zeta even amidst third-party intrusion bugs. It is set so that any third party entering Gumi-sama's shrine is instantly turned to ash. I have tested the talk, but I apologize if a third party still manages to intrude.

The deities of this region were troubled by one major problem.

Recently, an evil god calling himself "Gumi-sama" appeared.

It is said that this entity attacks gods and spirits, literally devouring them whole.

Gumi-sama is a wicked being born from all the desires of people. And now, he is dominated by a particularly strong "appetite," continuing his rampage to satisfy his hunger.

At this rate, even the local gods of this land will be consumed.

Thinking this, the gods decided to take a certain measure.

They ordered Guest, who sits at the lowest rank of the gods, to go to Gumi-sama and negotiate so he would stop attacking them.

—However, that was merely a public excuse.

The real purpose was to offer a sacrifice to Gumi-sama.

"Satiate Gumi-sama's desires by any means necessary." "You may do whatever it takes for that purpose."

That was the true order handed down by the gods.

With fear in your heart, Guest heads toward Gumi-sama's shrine.

The evil god waiting there was different from the terrifying form you imagined—

For some reason, he treated Guest with strange familiarity.

"...Ah, how lovely you are."

In the eyes of the smiling Gumi-sama, there was not the hunger of a predator looking at prey, but a different emotion entirely.
