The Laziest System: Sign-Up System

"Wait. What do you mean that I will be a representative of the Human Faction of Japan?"

I look at Yasaka in confusion and shock.

"You will be the one representing the Human Faction of Kyoto, not Japan. Before you say something, you are the one fighting against Kronos, and you hold him long enough for Lady Amaterasu, Lord Tsukoyomi, and Lord Susanoo to beat the other titans. That is enough for you to represent the human faction in Kyoto."

"But I am not their leader, you know? I don't want to create a problem by taking that place and making the world think I am the leader of the human faction in Kyoto."

"Don't worry. They will not create a problem because Lady Amaterasu has already declared that you will be the one representing the humans in Kyoto. If they create problems, she will be angry, and you don't want to make her angry. The last time it happened, the Sun did not shine in Japan, or the Sun burned an entire city into ashes."

"Yikes. Very well. I will do that. Does that mean I need to sit somewhere?"

"Nope. You can sit next to me and Nurarihyon."

"Ah, the Old Youkai will come to this meeting, huh?"

"Yes. His territory gets attacked as well, and he needs to give a report about it."

"Who is the one attacking his territory?"

"Lucky for him, no Titans are attacking his territory, but unfortunately for him, there are a lot of them attacking his territory. He lost a lot of people in the fight."

"Should I go there and heal his people?"

"After this meeting. He already requested your presence there, and you can go there after the meeting."

"I will bring Asia with me. She will greatly help in the healing."

She nods and says.

"I agree. However, make sure she does not push herself too hard. She almost fell to the ground in exhaustion yesterday."

"I will make sure she does not push herself too hard."

Yasaka smiles and puts her arms around mine as the two of us walk to the meeting room.

"Let's go and see what kind of excuse the Greek Pantheon will give us."

"I have a feeling they do not know about the attack as well."

"I know. This is the Khaos Brigade you are talking about, no?"

I nod at her question. I already told her about my origin, after all. She already knew the canon story of this world when I told her the reason why we needed to kill Issei. Because of this, she already knows about the Khaos Brigade.

"Yes. However, the others do not know about this."

"And we need someone to blame, and the Greek Pantheon is the perfect one for all the destruction and death that is happening here."

"At least you already talked to Lady Amaterasu about not going too overboard in asking for the compensation."

"Yes. We don't want the Greeks to hate us. We have one common enemy and need to work together. They are a group of people from all kinds of factions, after all."

"At least a good chunk of their army are busy in China and India."

Now we know the reason why Great Red wants Zelretch to summon the Chinese Servant and wage war in China and India. The Hero Factions might be weak compared to other factions, but they have Sacred Gears that can cause great damage to us. If Cao Cao or Georg appear here, they will be annoying people to deal with, especially when we are fighting the Titans at the same time.

With the Hero Faction busy fulfilling the order from Indra, we can have a moving room for action.

I snap from my thoughts as the two of us enter the meeting room. I can see seven people already waiting for us. I can see the Big Three of the Shinto Faction and Nurarihyon. Yasaka sits to the left of Nurarihyon, and I sit to her left.

As we take a seat, I look at the other three. The first one is a beautiful woman with black hair and a massive rack that can rival Yasaka. She releases a warm feeling, and her smile is gentle and welcoming. Sitting next to her is a skeleton. It is a straight-up skeleton wearing a priest-like attire. His eye sockets are empty, but there are blue orbs that act as eyes. The last one is a young man with black curly hair and rare orange eyes. He wears a chiton, a tunic-like garment worn by both men and women in Ancient Greece and Rome.

I lean over Yasaka and whisper.

"I know lord Hades, but who are the other two?"

"They are Lady Hestia and Lord Apollo."

I nod and wait for the last guest to arrive. After a few seconds, I see a massive man enter the room. He has blond hair and golden eyes. He is wearing a crown of golden color and is shaped like lightning. He is also wearing a white toga that shows his muscled body.

This must be Zeus. I can feel his power rolling out of him. His energy has the same feeling as Susanoo's, but he is more potent and chaotic. Susanoo is like the silence before the storm, but Zeus likes the storm itself. It feels destructive and powerful.

Lady Amaterasu stands up when Zeus arrives.

"With all of us here, let's start the meeting. Let's start with the elephant in the room. Why? Why did the Greek Pantheon attack Japan?"

Zeus looks at Amaterasu and says.

"You know as we do that we do not attack you. It was the rogue element in our faction. We do not attack you."

"Rogue element is still your faction, no? Even if that is true, how do you not know about it? The last time I hear, Kronos and his army are imprisoned in Tartarus. I thought the agreement between factions about the release of criminals needed to be informed to other factions."

Amaterasu looks at Zeus right in the eyes. Zeus takes a deep breath and looks at Amaterasu back right in the eyes. His eyes shine for a moment before he is saying.

"That is because we don't know they are escaping. We know this because of the news of the Titans attacking your territory. Someone created a hole in Tartarus that let them leave without us noticing."

Zeus looks at Hades, who leans back and says.

"They create a hole in Tartarus using an unknown method. However, there is one thing that I know. They create that hole from the outside, not from the inside. That means they are getting help from someone."

My senjutsu can feel how annoyed the God of Death is. I know that he will create problems in the future, but it looks like he doesn't want his father to get out of prison.

"I think I know which group they are from."

Yasaka says and gets the attention of the others. I can feel her nervousness at the attention, but she continues.

"I think they are from a group called Khaos Brigade."

I can see Zeus and Hestia look at her in confusion, and only Hades, who does not look surprised at that news.

"They are a group of terrorists whose main goal is to kick Great Red, the Dragon of Dream, out of the Dimensional Gap."

"And why do they want to do that, dear child?"

Yasaka looks at Hestia and says.

"That is because Ophis is the leader of this group, Lady Hestia. At the moment, she takes the form of a small girl with dark hair and eyes. We encounter her once in the underworld. She wants to recruit Ryan to join her group because he shows potential."

"And do you know the reason why they attack this place?"

Yasaka looks at Amaterasu and sees her nod. Seeing the confirmation, Yasaka says.

"They come here to take a fragment of Kagutsuchi, the Son of Izanagi and Izanami. A primordial being so powerful, his mere presence killed his mother."

"Ah."

Hestia nods her head in understanding. Amaterasu looks at the guests and says,

"We know they come here to search for batteries for whatever they want to power. However, we don't know what kind of thing they want to power."

I can see the hesitation in their eyes, but after a few seconds of silence, Hades sighs and says.

"They manage to steal Pandora Box from the Olympus Vault."

Hades looks at us and says.

"They want to unleash Pandora Box into the world. The first time it is unleashed, the Black Death happens, and that is a low-powered incident. Imagine what happens when it is powered by divine energy or worse, the soul of a Primordial God."

There is one word that can describe our situation.

"Fuck"
