My Entire Class Was Summoned to Another World except for Me

Chapter 102

After returning home, I handed over the shopping bag to my mom and went to my room to call Lina on her phone .

“Whoa, I have never been so happy to enter my own room . ”

I purposely left the air conditioner on before I went out, so when I came back, it was already cool . though, I also feel refreshed when I enter a cool place after being in a hot weather . As I was enjoying the coolness in my room, Meru called me to remind me of the idea she proposed earlier .

“Master, are you going to call Lina-sama?”

“Hm? Ah, yeah, I will do that now . ”

As told by Meru, I took out my phone and called Lina’s phone number .

*Beep, Beep*

I placed my phone near my ear and waited for her to respond, but the phone kept ringing without a sign of someone answering the call . After a short while, I decided to call her again by ending the current call, but at that moment, the ringing sound stopped and switched to Lina’s flustered response .

“H-Hello!”

Her voice tone that reached me from the phone was trembling .

What happened to her? She doesn’t usually talk so loudly . I considered to ask her about it, but immediately changed my mind . I had a more important matter to talk about now .

“Hello, It’s me . Did I call you at wrong timing? You took a while to answer the phone . ”

“N-No, I’m fine . I’m just not used to this phone yet . ”

Yeah, the place where she came from doesn’t have phones . It can’t be helped . I found her excuse plausible, however, Lina continued .

“B-Besides, this is the first time I’m talking using a phone, so I got a bit confused . ”

This time her loud voice tone changed into a shy one . It was exactly as she said; I never saw Lina talking on a phone either . We talk directly when we’re in school, and even if we are not, we usually exchange only mails . She probably doesn’t have many people to whom she could talk in phone . Listening to her little awkward remark, I thought of giving her an advice .

“You don’t have to get so nervous . You are already used to telepathy, aren’t you? Phone calls are similar to that of telepathy . Don’t let a mere phone call intimidate you . ”

“... Yeah, you’re right . ”

Listening to my advice, Lina’s flustered voice tone started to subside . She then cleared her throat and asked me in a normal way .

“So, why did you call me out a sudden?”

“Ah, yeah, about that, actually...”

Intentionally leaving a short gap in my words, I then spoke the name of the person I wanted to ask about .

“... This could be pretty abrupt, but, do you know a God with the name of Scala?”

*Crack*

The moment I asked her about it, I heard a sound of something breaking from the phone . Wait, what just happened there? Confused from hearing a sound of something getting broken into pieces, I suddenly heard Lina’s voice that sounded nervous in a different and unusual way now .

“Y-You! What did you just say...”

“I just asked you; do you know a God named Scala?”

“Where did you hear that name!?”

Exuding a ghastly aura, Lina shouted . I wonder what made her lose her composure this much . I distanced the phone from my ear, waited for Lina to finish screaming, then told her about what happened .

“I heard it from that very person . ”

“You met her!? Did you just say that you met her!?”

Unlike the way I calmly spoke, Lina’s spoke with a trembling voice as she wasn’t expecting me to have already met Scala . Her flustering attitude was far from being normal .

“AH! What should we do!? What should we do!? Should I report this to Metron-sama? Or should I send a request for assistance first?!”

I could tell Lina was already at the end of her wits even though we were only talking via phone . Is this Scala that dangerous? I couldn’t shake off this faint feeling of worry after seeing Lina acting in a way I’ve never seen before . For now, let’s calm her down .

“Hey, Lina . Are you okay? Let’s calm down first . ”

“Eh? Ah, aah, my bad . I lost my cool for a while there . ”

Regaining her composure after hearing my call, Lina took a deep breath and settled down . Waiting for a short while, I finally asked her for some details .

“So, who’s this Scala? She told me that she’s a God . ”

Lina confirmed my doubt while still exuding a nervous ambiance .

“That’s correct . Scala-sama is a God . But she’s on a whole different level from Metron-sama . ”

After a moment of silence in the middle of her words, she eventually continued .

“Scala-sama is one of the four Unique Gods in this universe . ”

“Four Unique Gods?” (ED: How can they be unique if there are more than 1? Lol)

That’s a pretty cheap title now .

“The four Unique Gods are more like the top class Gods who hold the highest positions after the Divine God . The thing that you should know is that Gods are divided into 3 standard positions . The Divine God, the four Unique Gods, and Gods . However, Scala-sama has the highest rank even among the four unique gods . ”

Seriously? I guessed that she was dangerous, but not to that extent . After hearing Lina’s explanation, I got a bit surprised .

“To top it off, Scala-sama is somewhat different from every other God . ”

“Different? How is that?”

“A God is usually obligated to be responsible for managing one or more worlds . But Scala-sama doesn’t have that responsibility . ”

That’s quite the particular difference . I already heard that every God should manage a world; that is their principal job, after all . It’s their duty .

“Why does she not have a world to manage?”

I immediately expressed my wonder with that question . There must be some serious reason behind that . Although, the answer that I got back in return was ridiculously simple .

“That’s because managing a world is impossible for Scala-sama . ”

I was stunned when I heard that answer, but Lina ignored my reaction and continued .

“The title of Scala-sama is 【The God of Destruction】 . And just as her title says, her only talent is destroying things . That’s why managing a world is an impossible task to ask her for . Due to her problematic character, she has already destroyed many worlds by mistake...”

(ED: How does one destroy a world by ‘mistake’?)

(TL: That’s because they’re gods . )

Lina explained while revealing an annoyed expression . She even released a sign at the end . The only thing I could do at the meantime was to smile awkwardly . Well, managing a world is an impossible task for someone who’s more talented at destroying it .

“I’m impressed that someone like that could be a God . ”

She’s more like a fallen God . The fact that all the damage she causes is not done purposely makes her even more dangerous than Germa .

“Despite that, she is still a fully-fledged God . Even though she is unable to manage a world, there are still plenty of other jobs that she could accomplish . ”

If that wasn’t the case, she wouldn’t be a God, after all . Besides, if someone with a powerful ability that could destroy a world was left without care, who knows the catastrophes that could happen in the future .

“Yeah, if a God like her gets kicked from their job, the world could end up at any time . ”

“That’s right . ”

I lightly laughed while talking with Lina, but behind that laugh, cold sweat was dripping from my forehead . So, that God picked a fight with me .

“Say, suppose that I get challenged by someone like that and I ignore her and escape by teleporting . What do you think will happen?”

“You’re just gonna make her snap and outburst her anger at Earth . Why do you ask?”

I ignored Lina’s last question and held my head while gazing at the roof . Seriously, I was intending to just ignore her challenge . Just what am I supposed to do with the annoying whim of this God? Lina who didn’t get my reply yet remembered that I told her I met Scala and asked me hesitantly .

“H-Hey, y-you, don’t tell me...”

“... Yes . ”

There is no need to explain to her what happened now . She already guessed it all . I heard a dry titter from the phone as I imagined the Earth getting destroyed and turned into mere rocks . I guess I have no other choice; For the sake of the planet .

A God’s whim is a terrifying thing . I heard Lina desperately groaning from the phone; looks like she finally understood the seriousness of the situation . I can totally relate to her current feeling . I felt the same way only recently, after all . I guess I have really no other choice . Let’s make our resolve here . I was fated to fight her from the start . The result will come out on its own . Preparing for the day after tomorrow when I will have to fight Scala, I started thinking of a plan right away .

“What is Scala’s job?”

“She either takes care of worlds that are already destroyed or captures fallen Gods . ”

“It’s unexpectedly normal . ”

“Well, she often almosts destroys an entire world in the middle of capturing a single fallen God . ”

“I’m surprised that the universe is still unharmed until now . ”

“That’s because we repair the worlds she almost ruins . ”

“You can do that?”

“Of course we can . We can repair every world that’s in the brim of ruin . Though, it’s impossible if the world is already dead . ”

“Maybe that’s why Scala doesn’t stop destroying them . ”
