And then, upon hearing what he said, my whole body trembled furiously.
"N-No, no, no! Supreme Being, I wasn't ignoring it—I was just… just pondering over what you told me and didn't quite catch what you just said!"
I blurted out the first thing that came to mind, desperately trying to salvage anything from this situation.
…While I was sure he wouldn't end me just because I ignored him, who knew what kind of punishment he might dish out on a whim?
That wouldn't do me any good, would it?
Nope.
So yeah, I was desperately trying to salvage the situation and downplay everything.
But who knew? It still wouldn't reduce whatever punishment he was about to throw my way.
Had I known that… I wouldn't have tried so hard to please him.
But oh well.
Back to the void where I currently was.
