Loki still had time to arrive, so he went forward with the second lottery. Unlike the previous time when he had summons under his control, this time it was entirely different. A teacher who he couldn't control and a realm to pass his business to which he had no idea about. Or at least, those were his thoughts.

He rotated the spinning wheel in full force until the pointer finally stopped at a question mark. The question mark got erased and was replaced by a long name. The name of the realm. Aoto looked at the name for quite some time and only shook his head with a sigh. He recognized the name of the realm instantly.

"Whatever. I finally have some solutions and maybe enough stability," Aoto thought as he came out of the system space. It was already late at night, so he went to sleep. Loki would take his time coming here, so he had time.

The next day, Aoto woke up pretty early. Naruto, as usual, was getting ready for the Academy while Aoto handled the food for him.

"Naruto, there will be a new teacher of magic today," Aoto said while he stuffed some sticky rice inside his lunch box.

"New teacher?" Naruto was confused.

"Yes, a new and very capable teacher. Be respectful to him as he is a God," Aoto said. This made Naruto shudder and say.

"An actual God, God-dattebayo?" Naruto still had picked up the dattebayo thing, though he wouldn't speak it out in every turn, but the thing was always there.

"Yes, an actual God, God," Aoto said. Naruto was flushed with excitement. He had read of them so many times in different books and knowing about them. Whenever Naruto had questions about them, he would ask about the Gods like Celestials and others, and Aoto would only say that they existed and maybe someday he would meet them, once he was strong enough.

But now, Aoto saying he would have a God as a teacher, that excited him to no end.

"Who? Who is the teacher? I want to meet him now." Naruto had his voice quivering in excitement. He couldn't wait.

"Naruto, he will be here after you come back from the Academy. He is on his way here," Aoto said, which poured water on Naruto's expectations, and he sulked a bit around. But Aoto somehow made him think that he would get to see him after school time.

Naruto accepted, but he still sulked. Corazon came to take him away, and that's when he came to know about the new teacher. But he didn't ask. Soon everyone was in his place, as that was the ritual, as Kisuke would call them and make adjustments of what everyone had to do on the day.

It was there everyone got to know about the new teacher thing. In response, Aoto just went to the gate to wait for Loki while the others followed. Only Unohana didn't have a bit of care, and Kisuke was just curious. He had seen a real God in his life, and he wasn't intrigued at all. He knew that being God only meant being a burden and nothing more.

The Soul King was one prime example.

Aoto waited for half an hour and only after that Loki showed up and he was in his iconic green outfit, minus the cape behind and the horns. Unlike all times, this time the people guarding the gate were not the Uchiha, but some Konoha shinobis. 

Aoto had seen them around, so he greeted them and from the looks of it, whatever happened on that day with Hiruzen and the Konoha council, it never got out. Even Kakashi had shown up once or twice and he never gave that vibe that something was wrong, or maybe he was too good of an actor. 

After Loki walked up to the gate, his eyes fell upon the 4 sculptures on the rock. For a moment he looked at them before he turned away and submitted his documents to the guards. Soon he walked in and everyone was curious looking at him. 

Aoto told them he was a God but from no angle he looked like one. 

"Where are the 4 hands?" 

"I was expecting 4 eyes." 

"C'mon I made a bet that he would be much taller than Corazon. I need my money back." 

Everyone seemed to be disappointed that he didn't have some outward exaggerated feature. 

"Hey.. Have some respect.. You are in front of a God." Loki could see the disappointment and got irriated. 

"Yeah.. Yeah whatever." Edward said. He had seen God too and he wasn't that moved. Loki was furious and almost went forward to beat this guy but Aoto stopped Loki and said. 

"Loki.. Please calm down. They are just children. They don't know you. A God doesn't meddle with children." Hearing this Loki did calm down but he still looked at everyone of them. Aoto, not wanting to create a scene, dragged them to home. His colleagues were still a bit disappointed at Loki but didn't say more as they could see that Aoto really did respect this guy. 

After they got home, they went straight to the library. It was there that Aoto actually spoke of Loki and his responsibilities. The more the people heard about him, the more they were surprised.

"So you are a villain turned hero." Winry said. Loki flinched a bit but nodded. 

"Well, he did save trillions of lives so that counts as something." Edward said. 

"So your name is God of Stories or He Who Remains?" Kisuke asked. Loki just shrugged his shoulders and didn't seem to care what he was called. Aoto could see that even though Loki showed his outward irriated look, he was happy because he was able to interact with people whij sitting on the throne never gave. 

As everyone was talking Loki looked at Chomei who seemed to listening silently. 

"What are you?" Loki asked Chomei.
