Chapter 23

This is chapter 22 in the Heaven's Design Team manga series.

## Plot

Continuing from the previous chapter, the team is in panic mode of the sudden arrival of God at the party in Hell. Because they faked Unabara being sick to attend, the team tries to hide him. Suddenly, the bell scene in God’s arrival rings, and the door opens. To everyone’s surprise, the guest is Ueda accompanied by a giant bird with teeth. Yokota proclaims that the bird is Garuda, God’s personal mount, as the team runs around dodging the falling flaming flowers it brought. Tsuchiya asks where the client is. Ueda explains that God called away on urgent business. So he sent Garuda to deliver the flowers and a message.

Shimoda asks Kanamori if Garuda was one of her designs. She replies yes, but adds that it was rejected. However, God was quite fond of it and he took it in as his mount. Yokota asks why it was rejected despite its elegance. Kanamori explains that she thought it would be beautiful if the bird protected itself with fire. She gave it the ability to spray a flammable oil and ignite it with the teeth. However, the teeth made it hard to fly, and thus the bird kept falling into its own flames. Despite the issue, Kanamori refused to give up and has since then been working out a prototype to correct the problems.

At that moment Garuda starts making clicking noises, which Ueda informs them that it is trying to deliver the message from God. Garuda then starts talking like a voice machine and plays God‘s message. God congratulates the new sales division by Hell Incorporated, and as a gift, orders a new animal “suitable for a theme park in Hell.” In other words, the creature would need to be capable of living on earth as well as in Hell. The design team is shocked to be given another ridiculous request.

Garuda finishes the message with God noting that he is glad that Unabara is no longer feeling ill, and gives divine approval for the animal Unabara designed, the rabbit. The team is left both stunned and relieved. Seeing as they need to get started on the order, Tsuchiya asks Yokota about the attractions in Hell’s theme park. Yokota suggests something that doesn’t exist in Heaven, an animal that can really surprise angels.

Back in heaven, the team brainstorms ideas and uses Shimoda and Ueda as guinea pigs. Both Meido and Tsuchiya make attempts with a paradox tadpole and a Tyrannosaurus rex. However, Shimoda proves to be easier to scare than Ueda. Suddenly, the bell signaling God’s arrival rings startling everyone, including Ueda. Next, God’s voice is heard repeating the message from Garuda, leaving the team bewildered. Just then, Kanamori walks in carrying a new bird and a look of joy on her face.

It turns out the bird was Kanamori’s prototype she had with her at the party. It apparently heard God‘s message, and after a few adjustments, Kanamori turned it into an animal capable of mimicking any sound. Also, by removing its teeth the bird is now capable of flight, making it suitable for surviving on Earth and in Hell. At that moment, Shimoda receives a message from God giving divine approval, and the Superb Lyrebird is born. God then remarks on what an interesting bird it is, this time in his own voice, startling everyone.
