”K-Kireina?!” the teacher gasped.

”Hm? Wait a second, Athena?!” I gasped. ”Right, thatʼs why there was something familiar about you! How could I forget the taste of wisdom? Haha! Sorry, bad joke.”

”H-Hahah...” Athena giggled nervously, her brave appearance breaking down as she looked slightly afraid of me.

”I had no idea you were working here. Are there more of your siblings here?” I wondered.

I had revived most of the Olympians except Zeus and Hephaestus. Both bastards were unable to be given a second chance, while the rest, after I ate them all, were able to reincarnate from my own soul.

This is what I used to do... or well, still do sometimes. I can devour a being completely, assimilate their soul and everything, and then I gather their minds and their Soul Origin, combine them within a piece of my soul, and cut it apart, letting them revive from it.

They recover with their full power plus some more, and no, they donʼt gain chaos elements or any of my skills unless I allow it.

Though she probably still has PTSD about the whole thing.

Well, we were enemies.

”Ahem! Attention, students. You all have the privilege today of meeting none other than Kireina, the Supreme Ruler and Creator of the very world you all live and breathe in,” Freyja smiled.

”Wait, Kireina-sama?!”

”Itʼs her?”

”Woah, sheʼs dazzling!”

”No way thatʼs her. Why would she come out of nowhere, on a weekend, and to our literature club of all places?”

”You have to be dumb to believe this. Sheʼs probably another of those doubles they use for movies.”

”Thereʼs doubles of me?!” I gasped. ”Wait, you brats! Itʼs the real me! You dare actually doubt me? I am very offended!”

”See? Kireina-sama would never act like an angsty teen!”

”Yeah, itʼs definitely not her.”

”I heard sheʼs fighting cosmic gods out there in space. She wouldnʼt be here with us in this late club I took because I needed something to fill my student card.”

”...”

I remained silent as I noticed Athena and Freyja panicking the moment they realized I had gotten a little angry.

Iʼm sorry, but I wonʼt let these brats keep on with this!

”Fine, let me show you.”

T R U U U M !

Reality fragmented and shattered into pieces. The world as they knew it ceased to exist.

”W-Wha...?!”

”Whatʼs going on?!”

”An illusion?”

”No, this is... a dream?”

”Freyjaʼs doing it!”

Countless colors emerged, bleeding through reality. They saw the birth of an entire star and then its collapse, and from its dust, my true form emerged.

R U M B L E !

A giant humanoid insect-like goddess, carrying both the radiant golden armor of Khepri within me and the cosmic insect-like chitinous exoskeleton of my Outer Goddess form together.

This was my current form, and my power combined both cosmic radiance and chaotic destruction into one. Darkness and light coalesced and then detonated, breaking apart everything.

I could hardly describe what I looked like right now, but certainly, I wasnʼt just a pretty lady anymore.

”Is this enough proof that youʼre now before the almighty ruler of your world, insolent children?”

”Eeek!”

”I-I canʼt move...”

”My powers are useless!”

”Ahhh! Itʼs really auntie Kireina!”

”Please forgive us...!”

”Wait, sheʼs our parentʼs friend too!”

”Please forgive us...”

The children of Truhan and Celica apologized first, then Raito and Palamiʼs kids. Then the rest of the children stopped doubting and questioning me once they realized my power was the real deal.

I donʼt really like using my power on defenseless kids, so I quickly snapped my fingers, and everything returned to normal.

”Itʼs alright, children. I would never harm you,” I smiled gently. ”I might have overdone it there. Iʼm sorry.”

They were all left nervous, staring at me in disbelief, but then they slowly relaxed after I used my Power over Emotions through the Sin of Lust to enhance their Affection and lessen their Worry.

Yeah, the Sin of Lust is much more than sexual stuff...

”I canʼt believe the creator goddess is here...”

”This is crazy, OMG.”

”Can I take a selfie with you?! My mom would be so happy to see it!”

”They were right. This academy is indeed the best! Every teacher is a god, and Kireina-sama is here in the flesh!”

”Actually, weʼve met her multiple times through our childhood.”

”Mom and dad are like her left and right hands.”

”And our parents are like her... uuhhh.”

”Like her second left and right hand. She had multiple arms, right?”

The kids seemed quite happy to see me, and I felt like a celebrity. I ended up giving in to their requests because I felt bad about scaring them, taking selfies with those who requested them and then giving a few speeches about what they must do in their future while answering any questions.

I learned about their aspirations, their names, divinities, and more, and discovered many of them were the kids of Gods I already knew, which made me think more and more about my grandson, Triton. Maybe I should convince Amphitrite to let the boy join this academy once he grows up some more.

He has amazing potential, but itʼll be underutilized and wasted on that island. Like the other gods living there, unable to exert their true power, heʼll become a mediocre god when he could soar higher than any other on that island.

”Alright, weʼll be leaving for now. Thank you for listening, children! Our great Divine Empress is a very busy person. She had to escape the palace to come see you all, after all!”

”Bye, kids! Take care! Make sure to study and train a lot. Any of you can one day join me in what lies beyond the skies. I am sure you all have the potential!”

”Yeaaaah!”

I went from classroom to classroom, doing the same with several other children, until classroom number thirty, where I became a little exhausted from it.
