I’m Not an Evil God! Novel

“Elise, is this what you mean by the Giant Chaos Wolf?”

James asked curiously as he raised the carcass of the giant wolf.

“Uh, yeah, yeah.” Elise nodded numbly.

The situation that had just occurred was beyond her imagination and she was still recovering from her shock.

“I see,” James said with some frustration. “If you had told me that it produced those eggs earlier, I would have raised it.”

Upon hearing his words, Elise scratched her head.

She was on the verge of breaking down!

He actually wanted to raise such a terrifying creature.

Did he not know that this was a Giant Chaos Wolf?

To humans, it was the most terrifying existence from the Land of Darkness!

However, when she looked at the corpse in his hands.

Elise suddenly felt that there was nothing wrong with what he had said.

Perhaps this was the world of the Evil God!

After skillfully dealing with the corpse, James went to work.

If he was late again, he would lose the remaining half of his salary as well.

When the busy day was over, James returned to his room and said good night to Elise.

…

In the morning.

A soft ray of sunlight shone on James’s face.

It woke him up.

He sat up, feeling sore all over.

He had been sleeping on the floor for two days.

However, he had no choice as his conditions were limited.

His current economic strength allowed him to rent a house with only one room.

However, after sleeping on the floor for two days, he had gotten used to it.

Perhaps the egg of the Giant Chaos Wolf had strengthened his body.

He stood up and stretched lazily.

A new day had begun.

He looked at the beautiful sleeping girl on the bed with mixed feelings.

Over the past two days, he had asked Elise about many things.

He now knew that she had been sacrificed from that village.

Unfortunately, the name of that village was rather unfamiliar to him.

An unfamiliar name meant that the village was far away. In other words, Elise could not return to her hometown for the time being.

However, at the mention of that village, Elise would always be very quiet.

James guessed that Elise could have been traumatized after being used as a sacrifice.

After figuring out everything that had happened, James felt a little troubled.

He now faced a conundrum: how to deal with Elise.

First of all, helping her find her way home was unrealistic as he had never even heard of that village.

He didn’t even know where it was, so he couldn’t rely on luck.

Furthermore, he could not bring this sacrificial array with him. If he did not guard this place and deal with the strange creatures that were sent here, this city might suffer.

Secondly, he could not send her to the local church.

There was no church in this poor and chaotic city.

Only the neighboring city would have such luxury.

However, he still faced the same problem of leaving this place.

He had to guard the sacrificial array here.

Of course, most importantly, there was a problem with Elise herself

After all, she knew too much.

In order to convince her that he wasn’t the Evil God, James had told her almost everything.

If he sent Ellis away now, she might expose his secrets.

She knew about the mad sacrifices of the cultists, the chaos creatures from the Land of Darkness, and the fact that he was mistaken for the Evil God.

If these secrets were leaked by Elise, he might be determined to be a cultist.

In this world, if one was determined as a cultist, they would be tied to a cross and burned to death.

Since his various decisions had been rejected…

Then there seemed to be only one choice.

That was to keep Elise with him.

At least, he could not let her go before she fully trusted him.

Since he had already made his decision, what he needed to do now was to obtain Elise’s approval.

When Elise woke up, James told her about his decision.

“Really?” She heard that James wanted her to remain here for a while.

Naturally, Elise was willing to do so.

Although she still suspected that James was the Evil God, he seemed like a good Evil God.

Although it sounded ridiculous, this was based on her observations over the past two days.

Thus, Elise could be certain about this guess.

After all, one’s character could be seen in the details.

Although Elise didn’t interact with many people, she was skilled at observation. Thus, she was sure that James had decided to be a gentle and kind person.

After all, not many people would cook for people they didn’t know in the past.

Furthermore, this was under the condition that his economic conditions were poor.

“Of course you can. But our living conditions might be a little harsher.”

“No, Mr. James, this is heaven to me!”

Elise said.

Upon hearing this, James no longer showed any surprise.

After all, he had asked Elise about her past life over the past two days.

In here village where they couldn’t even serve meat, it was indeed heaven to be able to eat fresh rye bread every day.

Still, James was dissatisfied with his current life.

Especially now that there was also a beautiful girl here.

However, that was a matter for the future. Right now, he should first welcome the new member of his family.

“Welcome to this family, Ylispua!”

“Call me Elise!”

The girl corrected him sternly. She had already decided to use her new name.

“But I can still work!”

“Please let me do something for you!”

Elise, who was used to doing household chores, had been taken care of throughout the past two days she had been here. This made her feel bad.

Upon hearing her words, James did not hesitate to assign her some of the simple, easy chores at home.

In the future, they would be living in the same house. Thus, it was natural that they had to bear the burden of each other.

Elise was doing housework, while James was in the room tending to the corpses of the monsters.

The house was small and there weren’t many chores to do. Thus, Elise very quickly cleaned the house.

She went to the room where James was tending to the corpses of the monster and secretly made a small slit in one of the corpses.

“Is there anything that I can help with? Mr. James!”

“This is not something you can handle. Leave it to me!” James didn’t turn back and waved at her as he spoke.

After all, what was happening next was rather bloody and not something a little girl like her could handle.

“Mr. James, I can help. Trust me on this!”

When she heard James say that she couldn’t do it, Elise was immediately unconvinced.

She was once the most capable member of her family. Thus, she had never allowed anyone else to help.

“I’m dealing with the offerings given to me by those cultists. There are many strange and terrifying creatures, even chaos creatures. Are you sure you want to help?”

The girl, who was initially very enthusiastic, turned pale when she heard about the chaos creatures.

James smiled nonchalantly when he saw Elise instantly flinch. Then, he waved his hand.

“Alright, you may leave now. Call me if there are any guests!”

“This is the task I have given you!”
