Author’s note:
I got points for the first time. Also, this is the final chapter for 2nd volume. (It will be continued in volume 3. It’s not the end).
By the way, counting this post, it's been about 2 months since I started. I have reached 15000 PV. Please take care of me from now onwards as well.

|■ Fraul Kingdom. Alp’s orchard|
Fraul Kingdom, Alp’s house.
There, the Goddess Fiona and Navi, her observer cat, were talking about the event this time.
“Somehow those Anchor guys were useless this time”
“Don’t be so metaphorical suddenli. Well, it wasn’t urgent situation like being deprived of qualification as a God after all”
【You learned to adapt to situations after all】
【Plus, you stopped cooping yourself in the house too...】
【I think nothing will change with or without this Goddess, you know?】
“Fufufu...it seems like you all don’t even know what a mascot actually is, foolish plebians”
“Do yuu know that you are pretty much admitting that you are useless in a roundabout way?”
“?? anyway putting aside this topic… Why is Tonic-san lying on the floor?”
Alp looked worriedly at Tonic whose limbs were twitching and trembling on the floor.
“Erm, Was Fiona-sama unable to forgive them as I thought?”
“The reason is not that big of a deal. He won’t die so yuu can rest easy”
“It turned out that he was a heretic so I gave him a little punishme--- No, I had him eat a little of my homemade foods to convert him”
“Is that so! In summary, he ate the food Fiona-sama wholeheartedly made and fell down from the sheer deliciousness!”
“Although I believe you are accepting it in a slightly too positive manner, well let’s say that is the case”
All in all---
In exchange of Salt and Tonic, these two being let off, they had to let go of Lamcour the [outsider].
It was planned that these two were going to [work] on intelligence tasks under Margot from then on, mainly in Lucorua, their home country.
As extra tidbits---
Marquis Valencia who had overlooked them took 20% which was 2 gold coins for his share and 5 gold coins as penalty as well as to clean up their wrongdoings, totaling to 7 gold coins from Salt and Tonic’s request reward of 10 gold coins.
From the prepared amount, the leftover 93 gold coins were returned as he could not accept them. When this news entered Ron Boggat’s ears...
“What a selfless young man!!”
And became very impressed with him---
He would talk about [there is someone in our Baxia who is still clean and pure] often.
His reputation in his home country suddenly skyrocketed, and his popularity increased as well within Fraul Kingdom because rumours about his treatment towards Alp were spreading amongst the people. There was a plan to hold a joint commendation for him by both countries in the near future, but he remained unaware of such news.
Also, the two siblings, Mimosa and Fudgy, continued to work at Alp’s orchard.
“If those two are not enough, I will also participate. Feel free to call out to me”
Just as Mimosa said, she would also cooperate as an information broker if needed.
Meanwhile for Fudgy’s side---
-replaying past event-
|■Japan Kingdom. Fiona’s room|
“Eh Mama, can I increase the number of my apostle?”
“Yes, you can. However, you must have at least 80% of your MAX number of believers. The power of God, faith, does not diminish unlike the golden fruit. Currently you have around 1300 believers, right? You will need another 300 believers then”
Navi entered the conversation between Fiona and Alfrieda, the daughter and her mother.
“Considering the current pace, I believe it’s just a matter of time. But, the question is who to make the next apostle?”
“Mumumu...it’s hard to throw away that noble elf spirit, Simon-kun, and the new face Fudgy-kun...also that Valencia-chan is also a pretty good man”
“Before you get ahead of yourself, you can only have one apostle within a country. Also, you will become able to descend down to their country of origin. If you become stronger though, you can increase the number regardless of the country but don’t forget you are still a fledgling God”
“I didn’t know there is such restriction, Alfrieda-syama”
“That is why that noble named Veur can’t be turned into an apostle. It’s either those from Baxia or Lucorua. Which one are you going with?”
Fiona began to ponder the choices laid out to her by her mother.
“Mm~... Supposing the option of choosing females is non-existent...”
“None at all? But well, I’ll compile the choices for you---”
--- Simon Stragen ---
Merchant. Business based in Baxia. Also has a good relation with the daughter of Synonym, tax official.
--- Range Valencia ---
A marquis. With the origin from Baxia, he is currently the representative of Fraul Kingdom. He holds an important position in regards to trading with foreign countries.
--- Fudgy Bellini ---
Lucoroa origin. Along with Mimosa, he worked as an information broker. He is helping out in Alp’s orchard.
“So... it’ll be choosing one out of these three. Considering that we need to deal with [outsider] from now on, I believe it is appropriate to select those who are able to move around in Baxia. Thus, the options left are either Simon-kun or Marquis Valencia”
“The ultimate dilemma...hmm~...for this case, I’ll use [anchor]---”

“Alp-san, Navi-sama, the food is read---Ah, Fiona-sama!”
When Fudgy entered the room and saw Fiona, he bowed down his head to her.
“Fiona-sama?! Since when were you here? ---and, why is Tonic lying on the floor?”
“He is regretting the delusion that has been holding him captive until now… With my help, he was cleansed from his sin. Never again will he feel the same wickedness again”
“About Salt-syan, he is talking about his future plans with Bartlett-syan and Margot-syan”
“I see. Uhm, Fiona-sama...I am not sure if I am appropriate as an apostle”
“It’s still [candidate] apostle for now. There is no need to feel so worried about this. Not to mention, you already have a senior. Right, Alp?”
“Ye-yes! I will do my best along with Fudgy so as to not smear Fiona-sama’s name”
Responding to Fiona’s word, Alp involuntarily straightened his posture.
“---oof. Then, I will take Tonic, this idiot away. Still, to think that Fudgy will become Goddess’s apostle when I used to think that there is no God. You won’t know what will happen in this world, huh”
“M-mimosa-nee!”
“Aah, my bad my bad. It’s not sarcasm. I just thought that this world is not that bad after all”
“(Actually… although it was decided to choose between Simon-kun or Marquis Valencia, a certain god-for-nothing goddess included Fudgy within the options and as a result, he was chosen as the apostle by [Anchor])”
“(What are you saying? How can you not understand how great this combination is *Haa Haa*)”
“(What are you saying?)”
“Two of you, is there something wrong? Anyway, come over quickly. Sonia-san is also waiting”
And all five of them went to the dining table where Alp’s mother was waiting
