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

Chapter 482: Pointless but Soothing Activity

"Paper? What for?"

She seems intrigued, she ruffles her pockets and gets some out with a brush. Why she even is walking around with that is beyond me. I disregard the brush. Then it is time for me to act mysterious. I start whispering in a solemn voice.

[What you are about to witness is forbidden knowledge. One so strong it was banished by the gods themselves for they feared its power. Now, watch carefully for I will only show you once. Are you ready?]

She nods while gulping. She somehow gets dragged into my pace. This is just perfect. Then before her curious eyes, I slowly start folding the paper slowly.

[Now, make sure you remember exactly the way I am positioning it. Such a thing will be extremely vital. Do you understand? Alright, here goes nothing. Hopefully, no god is watching otherwise they'll try to smite us where we stand.]

She is starting to sweat, frowning, and nervously watching Heaven itself. Part of her seems to want to stop me but she is still silently watching. That is when I expertly completea paper boat!

[Ta-da! There you have it! With this, you are free to conquer the sea! Let it sail freely, let it tour the entire world!]

"That's it?!"

[Hey, it's a pretty paper boat, isn't it?]

I simply gently lay it on the water surface. I can't help but smile as it starts floatingbut then it sinks a few seconds later. Why?! I can hear her giggle on the side while watching my expression of profound sadness.

"Haha, you looked so serious too! I should have expected that from you really. Let me try!"

She enthusiastically starts fiddling with some paper. Soon, she's done. She's already mastered the craft. Well, she did a few mistakes but it's fine. Then she slowly puts it in the water and it starts to peacefully float away.

"I've corrected a few flaws while folding it. Do you want me to teach you?"

[What?! You dare doubt the paper boat master!]

Okay, she's good. I fold another one even more carefully this time. Then comes the moment of truth! It starts floating away! I give my companion a victorious smile!

"You may want to look at it for a few more seconds before you cheer."

. It's already sinking. Screw this! Time to become serious! I redo the previous steps but this time I add my personal magical touch. Divine energy! I focus greatly. I visualize this tiny boat staying afloat till the end of time.

I imagine it exploring every nook and cranny of the world as it sails away. I picture it making friends and perhaps even getting a crew. I will for it to become the number one boat in existence.

After all this, I do believe it will at least float for a few minutes. I carefully release it holding my breath.

"Wow. I don't know why but I get the feeling this one is unsinkable. It's weird, it looks exactly the same as the other ones! How? There is even water slowly coming inside and yet it still floats?!"

This princess next to me is opening her eyes wide in wonder, her mouth making a small o shape. Then she flashes a brilliant smile before making a small cheer with her fist congratulating me.

"Ah, after this what do we do?"

[Easy, we let it float away and see where the current takes it.]

"Nothing else?"

[Nothing else.]

Thus, we sit in silence observing the two small paper boats heading out into the distance. This is relaxing, this is peaceful, this is what I want my life to be like. I can feel the wind slightly caressing my skin, the setting sun is shining on it all giving it a magical orange hue, at the side is my new friend enjoying the moment too.

Eventually, it turns dark. We are still silently sitting. That is when she opens her mouth looking in deep reflection.

"Thank you for this. For some reason just sitting here was great. It's weird, isn't it? I've been happily training in my pink house all this time, but now I suddenly realize that there is more to life. I already loved exploring the city, but I was justifying it internally by saying I was just doing my job. Such a simple thing as making paper boats may serve no concrete purpose but even thenit somehow has worth."

[Life is not logical. Life is life, no need to overthink it. Just do what feels right to you and that shall be enough.]

She nods in understanding. That is when she slowly gets up, smiling.

"Alright, It's getting late. Do you want to follow me back home?"

[How straight-forward of you! *Sigh* It is a curse to be so handsome!]

"Please, I have guest rooms!"

Meanwhile, I'm pretty much homeless. *Sigh* I should probably get a sect castle or something. Now there is only the issue of how it will all work out since the sect members are currently scattered everywhere across the continent. Ah, three are in the god realm too. 

[Don't worry about me. I can crash at the Water Queen's place. I also have a disciple there too!] 

"*Frowning*. Alright, but be very careful. The Water Queen is not usually so friendly. There must be something going on behind the scenes."

[I'll keep your warning in mind, but couldn't it simply be that they are trying to win me over?] 

Actually, I'm pretty sure that's their goal. As for why I'm guessing it's because of the fact that I managed to escape from the God of Order's prison or something. They know how impressive a feat it is (maybe?). 

"Perhaps, rest well and take care. Remember, no bullshit!" 

Do I look like the kind to bullshit?! She leaves gracefully while I head back following the current.  It is softly flowing, just minding its own business, bringing life and joy. This is how I want my sect to be. A very fun sect that will always be there quietly and will just follow its own path. 

Then if there are obstacles, we will just evade them. If there are others joining us, we will bring them along too on this wonderful journey. I pick up a leaf and carefully put it on the surface where it serenely floats away. 

Today has been a great day, I had fun walking around the city and I met cool people. Yes, gods are people too. I can't help but think that this world truly is beautiful in its own way. People just need to chill. 

It is at that very moment that I suddenly get a wave of inspiration. I have been thinking of all this cool stuff that would easily pass as cheap wisdom. How about I put it all to practical use!

This is it! I have this genius idea! I'll bake some fortune pies! You crack it open, you devour it, then at the end of your meal, you are left with some profound (kinda) wisdom. 

Should I try to open a bakery here? I plan on staying here a while so probably
