GODZILLA- CH-40. Trying to Become God's Teacher

James, who had awakened, now had a clear goal.

Those were the burrowing insects, fire monsters, and similar creatures, and he chose not to pay them much attention for the time being.

In Kaeya's description, the burrowing worm was similar to an ordinary giant beast. The only unique trait was its ability to burrow into the ground, making it difficult to guard against.

But would this be a challenge for the snake people?

Besides, now that the problem with the frog-fish people had been resolved, a new tribe had joined. Could they not deal with them?

As for the fire monster in the desert, it was said to be in the desert and without much use. It was fine for others not to run around and attack; there was no need to go out and provoke them.

What did spying on divine power even mean? The other being was merely a fire-attribute creature. Could James not figure that out?

Furthermore, who knew how many giant beasts existed in this world? Did James have to fight them all?

How tiring and troublesome would that be?

So James finally decided that his ultimate goal now was to explore the giant tree and deal with the unruly white worm along the way.

That was about it.

With this plan in mind, James knew he couldn't sit idle.

After all, he never knew when he might feel extremely sleepy again.

Take action while there's still time—don't wait until you've slept for thousands or tens of thousands of years, by which time opportunities would be gone.

Just do it.

James waved to the four giant beasts and stepped forward, roaring as a signal for them to follow.

Anyone with a bit of wisdom would understand this.

Seeing James's actions, the giant moth had an inkling of what was happening, while the giant snake, water lizard, and trilobite were confused.

What was this molten flame creature planning?

'Forget it; I can't afford to offend him, and I can't win, so I'll just follow!'

Under the watchful eyes of the five tribes, their gods began to head toward the northern land.

The dinosaur men, snake men, and others wanted to follow, but when James turned around and roared at them, they became obedient.

The gods wouldn't let them follow.

The five tribes, who understood this, exchanged bewildered glances but ultimately had no choice but to stay where they were.

After all, the four tribes that had suffered losses from the battle still had many tasks to handle, which suited them well.

Additionally, the people of Black Water, a group of crustaceans, needed the four tribes to help civilize them.

From that moment on, the Four Gods of Order became the Five Gods of Order.

Moreover, from what they witnessed, most of the people of the five tribes could see that the gods of order were centered around the God of Lava.

And based on the majestic and mysterious display James had just put on, many of the members of the five tribes began to feel awe and faith toward James.

Thus, from this moment on, the title of the Lord God began to slowly emerge within the beliefs of various tribes.

The God of Lava was the supreme god among the gods of order, with the rest of the gods considered middle or lower gods.

After three sunrises and sunsets, far from the disturbances of the smaller creatures, James released Kaeya from the kingdom of God for the first time.

A huge flaming eye, surrounded by three halos of fire, each filled with eyes, floated before them.

This being could float and speak, completely shattering the previous understanding of the other four beasts.

What do you mean it can talk? Kaeya now knew how to use the power of his soul to communicate with the gods through consciousness, serving as an interpreter.

Kaeya's existence had stunned the other four beasts, who swarmed around him, touching and examining him. The attention made Kaeya feel somewhat uncomfortable.

And while acting as an interpreter for James, Kaeya grew more withdrawn and quiet upon learning about the childish and ignorant thoughts of the four beasts.

Is this the god worshiped by the other four tribes?

That could only mean that the great Father God was indeed the most unique and wise of gods, right?

Noticing Kaeya's confused look, James secretly wanted to laugh.

Look at this. This is the god you revere. What do you think? How do you feel? Surprised? Does it challenge your worldview?

James chuckled internally as Kaeya kept translating the conversation with a blank expression.

For example:

"Lava, what kind of monster is this? It looks so ugly and weird!" — Water Lizard.

"Meat, meat, I want the same meat as before. If you don't give it to me, I'll leave." — Trilobite.

"Lava, are we going to that giant tree? Great! Such a big tree must have delicious juice." — Giant Moth.

"Oh, Lava, how did you create this? Can you teach me? And the previous pattern you made was really good. If you teach me, I'll listen to you in the future." — Giant Snake.

"…"

Though these translations were somewhat inaccurate, telepathy allowed for the exchange of will and general meaning.

In short, this was the first time the giants learned of such a mode of communication, which piqued their curiosity.

It felt as though they had discovered a new world. In this world, there was such an easy way to understand what others meant?

The four giants were fascinated by Kaeya's existence, and for nearly eight sunrises and sunsets, the five giants formed a circle and talked.

By the end, Kaeya's worldview was almost shattered.

In the end, it even became a form of self-hypnosis.

'I know nothing, I heard nothing. Well, God is great!'

The giant flaming eye closed and made an ethereal gesture, as if praying during a ritual.

The endless snowfield lay covered with winding, frozen ice.

This was the permafrost in the north, one of the coldest places on the planet.

Everything was white, with almost no visible plants.

Deep in this land of ice and snow, a sunrise and sunset had passed.

The severe cold posed no problem for James and the other four beasts.

Even the water lizard and trilobite, which were water-loving creatures, were enjoying themselves here.

Although they were extraordinary beasts—or gods—they had never seen such an environment before.

For creatures that had never ventured far and only knew sleep and eating, the sights and experiences here were enough to excite them.

The water lizard, which was hydrophilic and capable of creating weak ice, was able to turn ice into water even in such frigid conditions, preventing the surrounding water from freezing.

That was impressive.

As for the trilobite, while it couldn't turn ice into water, it obviously loved the ice. It crawled around like a silly roe deer and even sometimes burrowed into the frozen ground.

The giant moths and giant snakes, on the other hand, watched and felt a bit bored.

"Little Fire Monster, where is that big white bug you mentioned? Why can't I see it yet?" the giant snake asked Kaeya, who floated low in front of it, its tongue flicking as it scanned the area.

"It should be soon. My people reported some time ago that the white worm should be nearby, and there's no doubt about that. Great Snake God, please be patient," Kaeya replied respectfully.

"Oh."

The giant snake didn't show any arrogance. When Kaeya spoke, it just responded casually and said no more.

To be honest, the four beasts around James had no knowledge of gods and no concept of pretense.

Their only common trait was their inherent superiority and indifference toward lesser beings.

This was a habit they had developed over time. Accustomed to looking down on lower creatures, they had a natural sense of superiority and were more casual about things, but they weren't aware of it.

Whenever each giant beast spoke...
