The Unnamed God. I'm really Not a God You Guys!

Chapter 469: When All You Have Is a Fish...

That's when I exit the shower. Now, time to dry my body. Let's use that one Forgar's spell, shall we?...

While it does consume divine energy, it isn't much of a problem in an environment filled with it. I focus to create flames around my body, ones that won't actually harm me. Before long, my entire vision gets filled with white raging flames. Why is it white?

"Hey! What are you doing?! It took me lots of effort to create that shower and you just evaporate it like that!"

Ah, my bad. I instantly stop the spell. Just the heat emitted in the air has completely wiped the nearby shower completely. The very walls of this place are also turning into steam, filling the room with a white mist, giving it a mysterious feeling. 

[Sorry, I didn't think it would be that fragile. At least, you are perfectly fine.]

"What do you mean perfectly fine? Can't you see that my fins are charred black and that I cannot even talk straight without screaming in agony?"

[There is so much mist that I can't see even a meter in front of me. Meanwhile, you are on the opposite side of the room.  So, yeah. I totally can see you!]

*SPLASH*

*Flop Flop*

He jumps at my feet for some reason. He's also totally fine. I look around but there is one thing missing

[Hey, got any idea where my clothes are?]

"I'm sure it survived that very weak flame."

[Makes sense. Anyway, can you make me some clothes out of water or something?]

"Do I look like a seamstress? Do I?"

[Nope, still some tuna.] 

"Perhaps but I'm clearly not one!"

Just as I'm enjoying this very strange but friendly banter with a fish, the mist finally starts clearing up. Finally, I'll be able to . What the Hell?!

The huge empty room has changed a lot. I'm expecting the walls to be in bad shape, but they are fine. No, there is something else. There is a small round water barrier, but that's not all. Through it, I can distinguish shadows.

Then the barrier suddenly disappears and what it once protected gets revealed. There is a water table, water chairs, and people. Yes, people!

There are three of them and all are staring at me completely shocked. I'm right in the middle of the room with nowhere to hide, naked, and clearly making a fool out of myself, .

"You do understand that I'm no tuna, right?"

I look at the people, I look at my shameful display, then I look at the fish. No time to lose! I grab the tuna and use it to cover myself.

"Y-you, what are you doing?!"

[*Whisper* Just make me some clothes already.]

"Release me! This is tuna cruelty!"

Our banter echoes in the entire room with everyone else remaining dead silent. It's as if they've never seen some naked human wrestle with a fish in a bid to use it to hide his genitals! Okay, actually, I really hope it's a first for them.

I observe the unlucky spectators in detail. It seems like they were enjoying some tea when I suddenly came out of the shower and started raining Hellfire everywhere. There is a shirtless youth wearing a straw hat indoors. There is a hooded figure with clothes so baggy its whole figure is hiddenstill indoor.

Then there is the last one, a young woman with blue hair and graceful features. She does have water coming out of her mouth that is still opened in stupefaction but that's a detail. I recognize her as being Aqua as she looks exactly like her statue back in the Earth realm. 

Are they going to say anything, or will we remain gawking at each other in silence? Well, I guess the fish complaining in the background (read junk area) makes that possibility null. Alright, calm down. I simply need to calmly greet them. In my defense, they never told me they were there. I couldn't have known.

[Good day for fishing, ain't it?]

Why did I say that?! I blame that one straw hat! It really looks like one that fishermen use in villages to protect themselves from the sun. Just as I'm wondering how to repair that faux-pas

[I know! It's a wonderful day for fishing!] (Straw-Hat)

Straw-Hat (temporary name) is smiling brightly. Meanwhile, I can hear some soft surprised sounds coming from the cloaked individual. Eventually, Aqua seems to come back to her spirits. She still appears anxious and is watching me carefully. Then she visibly takes a deep breath before addressing me.

[H-hello there, I am Aqua the goddess of Water. These two are IELOF the god of fishing and Lilly the goddess of Ra*Comes a cute panic sound from the back* the goddess of sailing.]

After finishing her introduction, she looks at me apparently uncertain. I guess I got lucky with the god of fishing, wow. Well, he does give that vibe. Aqua keeps going.

[Hmm, S-sir, what can we do for you?]

What?! What's with the Sir? It must be how she addresses all strangers I'm guessing. Can't blame her for not wanting to befriend a tuna-wearing weirdo. I can't help but awkwardly scratch my head.

[Clothes?]

She looks shyly towards me, blushing slightly. Then she seems to steady her resolve. 

[I understand.]

What's with that expression? That's when she instantly undresses and grabs a fish out of nowhere before copying me and hiding her privates with it. Her top is hidden by the long wavy blue hair. I blank, I simply blank. Why?!

[.]

[.]

[I-is that fine, Sir?]

I'm silent, the overdressed girl (?) in the back is silent, Aqua is silent and furiously blushingThat's when IELOF starts laughing so much he gets cramps. It's serious when a supposedly godly being gets cramps from laughter!

[HAHAHA. I can't believe she did that! Aqua, I believe this friend was just asking for clothes. You know as in for him]

That's when she finally comes to the realization. Before long she's dressed, I'm dressed, the girl in the back is especially dressed, the fish is grumbling, the fisherman is laughing, and we are all sitting at the water table ready to enjoy some tea.

[So, anyway. A pleasure to meet you all. Now, what is the plan? Let's go into the details already, shall we?]

I believe this to be the perfect opening. This way, I'm just putting all the embarrassment from earlier under the rug. Now, she'll tell me why she summoned me, and hopefully, there won't be any ominous prophecy.

But as she begins, I can't help but wonder: what the heck is she talking about?! Oh, and also: what does it all have to do with me?!
