Chapter 369
But listen.
The goddess we were dealing with was the goddess of “Order,” right?
She’s the one who even prepared resident registration cards for us individually, anticipating that we wouldn’t “blend in” properly after coming to this world.
Not only that, she made sure we could seamlessly fit into this world's system just by having those IDs.
You can imagine how insanely difficult that must have been if you think about it for even a second.
Selecting birthdates for us, faking the official birth registration through a government worker...
And the reason we could behave like normal adults was because we were accepted as people who had properly graduated school!
This country mandates compulsory education — elementary and middle school. If we didn’t have records for those nine years, we wouldn’t have been able to move around normally. People would have immediately started asking questions about our nonexistent parents.
If we had landed in a country without mandatory registration, it would have been different, but of all places, we ended up in a country where issuing an ID card includes mandatory fingerprint registration — a country where creating fake administrative records is brutally difficult.
Honestly, it would’ve been way easier to fit our genetic information into this world’s databases. That just requires fiddling with our physical bodies a bit.
If there were any diseases in this world that could seriously endanger our lives, or if, conversely, we carried a disease that could trigger a pandemic here, it would’ve already exploded into a major crisis.
We’d already been walking around busy tourist areas and staying at hotels packed with people.
