I was immensely stunned with the sound source that was sent back to me later.<br>
<br><br>
"The sounds! You increased them! What's going on? ( ‘ᾠ’ ;)"<br>

"What's happening?"
"That..."<br>

"At first I was just prostrating myself, but now the Techno Uchi God is a god. One God is enough for one person.
"I knew you'd understand."<br>
So the Technochi gods had a change of heart, and the ancient gods responded, and the battle began."
