I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

While chatting with Shea-san over coffee, our conversation gradually shifted to topics concerning the Gods.

[By the way, Kaito, you mentioned that you haven't been to the Middle Level much?]

[Yes, I usually go to the Upper Level or the Sanctuary. Last I'm here was back in the White God Festival.]

[Fumu, now that you mentioned it, despite being acquainted with the Supreme Gods and Shallow Vernal-sama, you have few acquaintances among the High-ranked Gods…… Were those in the party before the only ones you know?]

[Yes, among the High-ranked Gods I've met are you, Sky-san, Gaia-san, and Marine-san. Ah, those I invited are limited to those I've met and exchanged greetings with. I had seen some others but haven't really talked with.]

As Shea-san mentioned, I have few acquaintances among the High-ranked Gods…… Speaking of which, there's even fewer among the lower gods.

And considering that I am acquainted with the Supreme Gods, who are normally hard to meet, and the God of Creation, it does feel strange that I have so few connections with the High and Low-ranked Gods.

The same goes for my acquaintances among the nobility; I have few connections with Barons and Viscounts. It's understandable why Alice says my social connections are skewed.

[……What about the God of Flash or the God of Thoughts?]

[I've never talked to them directly. I've seen High-ranked Gods like that time you guys gathered in Lilia-san's garden, so I might recognize them if I saw them……]

[I see…… God of Life-sama's two assistants and one other direct subordinate, and among God of Fate-sama's direct subordinate, me…… For you to not be acquainted with any of God of Time and Space-sama's direct subordinates, that's quite skewed.]

[I've been wondering about this for a while, but how many direct subordinates like Shea-san do Supreme Gods have?]

When talking about the Supreme Gods' direct subordinates, it refers to the Gods who are allowed to live in the Upper Level. While I know they exist, I’m not sure how many there are.

Hearing my question, Shea-san lightly nodded and then explained.

[Basically, each Supreme God has five direct subordinates. That said, even though those fives are collectively called "direct subordinates", we have differing roles. First are the two "Assistants" to the Supreme God. They receive direct instructions from the Supreme God and assist them with various tasks, so they hold a lot of authority. For God of Life-sama, they're God of Sky and God of Earth, for God of Fate-sama, it's me and God of Fortune, and for God of Time and Space-sama, they're God of Flash and God of Thoughts. The remaining three direct subordinates are responsible for relaying messages between the Supreme Gods and the Low-ranked Gods or to the other High-ranked Gods…… They relay tasks assigned by the Supreme Gods to other Gods and compile reports to deliver back to the Supreme Gods.]

[Fumu fumu, so the assistants are technically in a higher position?]

[In name, they're technically next in line after the Supreme Gods, but in actuality, there's no significant difference in status or influence among the five direct subordinates. We are almost equal in standing.]

Come to think of it, I think I heard a bit before that generally speaking, High-ranked Gods and Low-ranked Gods are assigned to serve under one of the Supreme Gods.

If we apply this to a company setting, each Supreme God is like the head of a department———– perhaps a department manager or something similar. The assistants like Shea-san, Sky-san, and Gaia-san would be like section managers, and the remaining three direct subordinates might be akin to section heads or similar roles.

[So that means that including Shea-san, there are 15 High-ranked Gods living in the Upper Level. Then, I think there will be opportunities to eventually meet them.]

[……Well, if it's you, I wouldn't be surprised if you quickly said you've met all of them. If you're interested in meeting God of Fate-sama's direct subordinates, let me know and I can introduce you to them.]

[Thank you. I’ll definitely take you up on that when the time comes.]

Compared to the Demon Realm, I have fewer acquaintances in the God Realm, so meeting other High-ranked Gods as Shea-san mentioned seems like something I can look forward to.

Also, although she's not a High-ranked God, I'm curious about that God of Fertility-san, who seemed to be going through quite the hardships from the stuff I heard about her.
