I mean, there is a moon that is held in non-orbit with mana energy.

Well yeah, I know about the angel stuff, and that's something to consider, but that's us, here in the real world, making those connections. And even here we cheat and depict them as beautiful people with wings because no one wants to see what a real angel would look like. But in the world they live in, not a single person thinks their gods are completely fucked up?
I know, if that's all you've ever known you tend to just accept things and not question it, I get it. But damn, those things CAN'T just be normal gods, there has to be something else going on. Otherwise, as an author, why depict them that way at all?

Another couple of recommendations from the last couple of months :
Sky Pride
This one is a cultivation story with the MC as a crippled kid that survived an assassination attempt and has grown up living in a garbage dump.
A bit more thoughtful than the typical quest for true ultimate power™, with some humor around his lack of social skills and inability to understand metaphors or subtext. Mostly played pretty straight though - no special hook here, the main appeal is that it is just really well written, with interesting characters and world building.
Low Fantasy Occultist
Title is a bit misleading - this is an isekai into high fantasy litrpg world - the low fantasy part was that the protagonist was an occultist on a very low magic Earth, and is used to there being almost no mana and needing elaborate ritual sacrifices etc to get even basic magic done.
This one is definitely the typical quest for true ultimate power™, and the MC is kind of a calculating sociopath, but I've enjoyed it a lot.
Given prior complaints - trigger warnings : there are no gay characters in either of them. Childhood friend in occultist is a furry, but no relationships etc.
