Chapter 221.1. Sense Of Crisis Towards The Future

-Masatoshi’s POV-
The god Aguni Masatoshi knows everything. Well, at least he used to think he did. 
That’s why he felt a sense of crisis in the present. It seemed like I was entering a future that diverged significantly from the original story.
Unbelievably, Shin isn’t exiled in this timeline. It appears to be a world of fanfiction rather than the original story. It’s after I considered how Shin isn’t getting expelled. 
However, I have an idea of how this happened.
After hearing that Shin isn’t expelled, I began to suspect it was all because of Teijou Yamiyo, the reincarnated individual. All the blame lies with the gloomy Wakame, who is now, surprisingly, a stunning beauty.
It’s typical for a reincarnated person to gain cheat-like powers and become different from her original self. Well, that’s not the main issue here. The real problem arises when the actions of the reincarnated person lead to saving characters who were supposed to die according to the original story—a classic scenario of destroying the original plot.
In this case, the gray-haired girl who was likely destined to die had been set up with convenient cheat stats by the original author. The fact that Yamiyo helped her is proof of that. 
The pattern of saving a powerful supporting character is quite common.
Thanks to Yamiyo’s help, the cheat-like supporting character has unlocked her full potential and is significantly affecting the original story.
That turn of events resulted in Shin not being expelled, or at least that’s what I anticipated, and I’m probably not mistaken.
Now, amid the cheering voices of excited female students, Shin remains calm as he casts spells, focusing his mana. 
Due to the strict Spartan training from my father recently, I have become strong enough to defeat even adult warriors effortlessly. 
Observing the speed and smoothness of Shin’s mana concentration, I can see he has quite the skill.
Shin smiles faintly as he elegantly gestures and conjures a flaming bird.
[Flame Swallow]
As the name suggests, the bird’s wings are sharp like a swallow’s, and the blazing flames flutter beautifully as it soars, scattering fiery sparks.
“Now, burn my enemies for me.”
With his wrist flick, the bird flies straight toward the target. It travels close to the ground, leaving a trail of sparks behind, and hits the magical metal target. The intense heat engulfs and easily melts it.
“Wow, it’s amazing!”
“What a splendid magic!”
“As expected of my big brother!”
“I want some jerky!”
Looking at his smug expression and actions, I frown and confirm my suspicions. It’s as I thought. The current behavior, the use of intermediate magic, and the refreshing and gentle smile make him likable.
I’ve seen them all before.
There’s no way he can deceive a god like me. He’s different from those run-of-the-mill supporting characters. 
[That person isn’t Kanna Shin. That’s his younger brother!]
It’s the rarely-appearing Kanna Taiyou! The trick is due to their being twins. Only the god Masatoshi would notice it wasn’t him.
Kanna Taiyou is Shin’s twin brother, and he’s a genius at using non-divine magic. In the original story, he only makes a fleeting appearance.
In the academy, he’s a character who gets overshadowed by Susano’o Unit in the Student Council, Duke Kanna Yamato, Masatoshi, Nidhogg, and numerous other enemies. Due to this, his presence quickly faded away.
The original author wanted to make him interact with Shin and create events, but his behavior and personality were similar to Shin’s, and Taiyou ended up being overshadowed and forgotten. The author likely realized this character would overlap with Shin, so he significantly reduced his appearance.
Even in the post-story aftermath, this unfortunate character, who should have survived, was never mentioned.
However, this is reality. Just because he’s an unfortunate character doesn’t mean Taiyou’s existence can disappear.
A brilliant idea flashes through his all-knowing god-like thoughts. It’s Ace Attorney Aguni Masatoshi’s deduction.
Although the official record states that Taiyou died in an accident, he’s still alive. Shin, who is likable and popular, overshadowed Taiyou, who lacked popularity and connections. Even if Taiyou suddenly becomes the legitimate heir of the Kanna Duke, it would be challenging for him to fill Shin’s shoes.
If Duke Kanna expelled Shin, it would be problematic. If someone who knows Shin is around. They’d become suspicious if a Shin impostor appeared later on.
However, he didn’t expel him. Why not?
Killing him would have been easier, but the reason they chose not to was likely because of Duke Kanna’s last conscience.
So why keep him, a magicless Shin, instead of expelling him? 
The answer is simple, Takano Yoshiyuki’s existence. He’s cunning and excels in plotting, and he became famous as the “magician who can’t use magic”.
In addition, he’s Takano Miu’s father, a recovery magician who shouldn’t even exist. Shin is talented even without magic, and it would be a waste to expel him if there’s a chance his child could be a powerful magician.
That’s why Shin was kept in captivity instead of being expelled, and Taiyou has taken his place.
His deduction is frightening. With this brilliance, he could have become a renowned detective even in the world of mystery novels, Masatoshi boasts.
But there’s a problem. Shin needs to awaken his void attribute for this world to be saved, 
Shin is the only one capable of defeating the Demon God Ashtaroth. He’s the only one who can save this world as the protagonist.
Even that gray-haired girl who seems to be the representative of the new students, as well as Teijou Yamiyo, who is also a reincarnated individual, and even I, with my cheat-like abilities, cannot match up against Ashtaroth.
