Chapter 107
In a corner of the world in the heavens where the virtuous gods live, there is one god who controls time, and she lives together with his followers.
A myriad of gears of various shapes, sizes, and colors, along with misshapen clock panels, existed in place of earth, causing the tick-tock sounds of the clocks to overlap each other.
Due to the influence of the God of Time, the flow of time in several worlds are materialized in this way.
The flow of time is mainly decided by these gears, clock panels, and candles, so the more of them that there are, the more powerful her position as the God of Time becomes.
The largest clock in the God of Time’s possession shines as gold as the sun, and stands in the center of the realm, unsupported by anything.
One day, a rainbow-colored jewel was embedded into the needle of this golden clock, a clock which symbolizes the authority and power of this Time God.
Ever since that rainbow-colored jewel was brought in, she had developed a habit which must be performed once every day, without fail. From the shadows cast by the various clocks scattered throughout the surroundings, a single goddess stepped out, and she walked elegantly up to the golden clock.
Her silver hair was tied with a wide, purple-colored cloth, she wore a flax colored one-piece dress decorated with ornaments that resembled clock faces, and she had alluringly tanned skin.
She is the ruler of this realm, the Goddess of Time. She looked upon the rainbow-colored jewels embedded in the clock’s hands, with eyes full of reverence, as if she were a human looking up to a god.
The lower ranking gods and angels who are her followers also appeared and stood before the rainbow-colored jewels, their spines straight and full of reverence. Then they all, not even excluding the goddess herself, raised both their arms up high, and cheered in unison.
「Long live Dragon!」
「Long live Dragon! Long live Dragon」
「Long live Dragooooon!!」
The “Dragon” they were all speaking of, was the name of the Ancient Celestial Dragon who reigns supreme over all the gods. Although she was a god herself, the Goddess of Time, Chrono Maze, openly shouted her reverence for Dragon.
In Chrono Maze’s realm, the world known as Claudenia, the chanting voices of the gods singing praise to Dragon could be heard ringing across the land.
Chrono Maze had once granted a divine weapon to a human who then turned against Dragon, so she had been prepared to be destroyed by Dragon.
But when she actually met Dragon, she was simply forgiven by him, and because she had helped save his hometown from danger, he’d given her the rainbow jewel now embedded in the clock needle. Ever since, she had always admired Dragon.
To Dragon, who was reincarnated as a human, the rainbow-colored jewel did not hold that much power, but for Chrono Maze, it was a lump of enormous power that was too much for her to handle.
The jewel was the Ancient Celestial Dragon’s power in crystallized form, and it was also proof of her connection to him, so Chrono Maze would catch the attention of other gods thanks to that jewel.
Chrono Maze was wise, so she wouldn’t misunderstand and think of owning the jewel as meaning that Dragon’s power and authority belonged to her, and she wouldn’t become arrogant from it either.
However, in Chrono Maze’s eyes, there was no room to be arrogant.
That is because for a long time, she had only ever been able to see Dragon from afar. So when she was finally granted an audience with him, she witnessed the greatness of his power and how much his spirit was in a completely different dimension than anyone else’s. His might struck her, deep in her soul.
Upon seeing the change in behavior from their goddess, Chrono Maze’s followers were dismayed at first, but when they saw the rainbow-colored jewel she brought back, their attitudes changed as well, and now they were all Dragon’s worshippers.
That’s how tremendous the legends and anecdotes of Dragon were that were passed down through the heavenly realm.
To Dragon, the power inside the rainbow-colored jewel amounted to nothing more than the power inside one of his nails or a strand of his hair, but it contains far more power than all the power Chrono Maze and all her followers had combined.
With this much of an overwhelming power difference, so much that it was incomprehensible, anyone would bow their head and become Dragon’s believer.
Moreover, Dragon is expressing his friendship to them. If one can swallow their own pride, they will never find a more reliable friend than Dragon.

Lmao. That is literally the only reaction I can have to what is going on here. The idea of the gods themselves having a religion they follow is hilarious.
