Sa kalagitnaan nga gulo at kalituhan, mananatili pa din ang pagmamahalan bilang iisang pamilya. Higit sa lahat, sa bawat pagsubok mas lalong pinagbubuklod ng tadhana ang mga pusong nangungulila.

It's turning into a human! Oh my god! And it's naked! What the hell?!

What do I say as a good first impression? I mean he is a little cuter than Arthur. Haha! What am I thinking?

"Hello, I'm Kenny! I'm from the ox-horned fox tribe!" the thing says as he points to its horns. I guess I don't have to speak first. "What tribe are you from? You don't have horns neither any evidence to assume you're from a tribe at all."

Oh no, what do I respond with? He'll totally kill me if I don't say the correct thing! What do I disguise as?

Oh! I got it! "I just hide my horns!" I excitedly said. 

"Woah! You can? Can I see your horns? Only, the most strongest and powerful can hide their horns." Kenny explains as he stares into my eyes as if he was staring into my soul. Scary!

"Uhh, not now. I'm a little tired. May I stay at your place?" I politely ask. Wait, what am I saying?! I just met this person. Why am I asking him if I can stay at his place?

"Of course! Ride on me. It'll be faster that way." he says as he morphs into a fox again. Now I realize that, he's pretty big for a fox. A normal-sized fox wood be long as my hair. You don't need to know how long it is. Haha, let me tell you a little about myself while Kenny boy carries me to his home.

That sounded weird, oh well. You might be wondering how am I not scared after seeing this animal, thing. You see, this is a little secret! 

I am a goddess. You shall never tell anybody else! It is a secret. They must not know, you can literally do anything as a goddess. Juts goddesses, no gods can do anything. Just females. Seriously, it's the best being a goddess, well besides from matchmaking people. What I mean is that you have to write their names on plates and then attach them together with a special type of string. The string can never break unless the gods or goddesses see that they don't love each other anymore. The gods or goddesses will then be able to cut the string apart with a special sharp metal called Matchmaking Metal, it's a lame name, I know. Then they will be able to obtain the guts to tell each other their feelings if they have feelings for each other after the plates are tied together. A god or goddess will not be able to force two people together if they have no feelings for each other.

Because I match make people together, I'll come across these species too so I'm not too clueless about what they are I think. The plates come with pictures but not the names, bruh like, how do I like write the name down if I only have the picture. Actually I can. But, ehh.

You probably think it's really easy and ask  me how it is the worst part of being a goddess or god. Why? Because you have to do so many! Each god or goddess has to match make over 10,000 people! Are you serious? If you multiply that by 2, since it's two people together, it's about 20,000! Also, gods or goddesses do not get the plates. The plates are organized by our helpers. They're not like bodyguards and stuff like that. Well, kinda. If we command them to do something, they will do it. If want them to protect us from injuries or protect us from pain, we just have to scream "ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRK" and they'll come to our rescue or grant us what we want.

If there are so many, then that means a lot of ink and writing! Ink is very hard to take off these days! I once spilled an ink bottle over onto my soft carpet and it stayed there for a week after I washed it 5 times!

"We're here." Kenny says as he gestures me to get off. He turns back into a human this time and has clothes on. Are you serious? I didn't get the chance to ask him about it. I shouldn't though, it would be awkward. 

I walked into the shack, it was alright quality. It had dirt, a little too much for comfort. I dislike dirtiness. Ugh, I guess I will have to stay here for a while. Hopefully I'll find Arthur soon. I miss his positive attitude already. I sigh.

"What's wrong female?" Kenny asks as he sits down on a lower part of the floor where the fire pit is.

"I was separated from a friend of mine. His name is Arthur, can you help me find him?" I asked him sadly. I looked so depressing at that point.

"Is he your male?" he asks with an angry frown. "Also, what tribe are you from?"

"No? I don't own him." I respond. What do I respond to what tribe I'm from? 

"Oh good, because you're my female since I found you and saved you." Kenny says as he looks at me with gentle eyes. That's weird. What does he mean by that I'm his female? Is he saying that he owns me? And how do you even say that with gentle eyes? 

"Thanks, I forgot to thank you." I said as I look around the small wooden cabin.

"No problemo! It's regular for males to save females from things. Also, why were you in the forest, it's dangerous out there." he suspiciously asks. "Where you lost?"

"Uhmmm, I was taking a walk with my friend and we were separated when a pack of snakes chased after us." I said, I hoped he doesn't find out I'm lying. 

"Are you from the eagle tribe? Perhaps, the ox tribe since you're so pretty?" he asks as he gets up and opens a wooden box with raw meat inside.

"Thank you for that compliment." I respond, I'm kinda weirded out now. What do I say? What tribe should I disguise in?

"Oh! You're a hexa-marked beast? That's the strongest type of marked-beast! You're so surprising and powerful!" he says as he point to my scarred neck. Huh? So, the more marks you have the more powerful you're? Do my scars look that alike from marks? I got these scars from a fight with a hitman,  they got me good. Good thing they don't hurt anymore. 

"I can't believe that I'm next to a hexa-marked beast!" he shouts as he acts like a fan girl. "You're totally from the angel tribe! There's only 4 in that tribe! Angels are very, very powerful beasts! You must be the fourth beast! I've never seen you before."

"Haha, yeah." I awkwardly laugh as I look away from his stare. He continues whatever he's doing and puts the raw meat on a wood stick over a hot fire. What flavor do you like the best?" he asks.

"Huh?" I question as I quickly look at him. He stared at me and opened his mouth,"Do you want birch? Maybe anglewood?" 

Oh, the taste is determined by the wood? I have a lot to learn if I'm gonna live here in this realm. 

"Any!" I said as I smiled.

Ally Kirsten just fell and hit her head while she was walking with her best guy friend that she has feelings for! Now she's in a totally new world? Maybe another hallucination of her's! No way, she gets rescued by some guy with horns from a pack of beastly snakes and gets separated from her soon-to-be-lover? What will Ally do now? Not much to be honest, while she tries to figure things out, loads of stuff happen! A harem, finding her guy friend, handsome guys, with a, non equal opposite gender, what I mean that they totally have different appearances, hot guys, with ugly girls, alright? I don't know to put it without sounding harsh. Oh well, she gets uhhh, kidnapped, and maybe turns into a kidnapper too! Listen, Ally is a athletic, and strong, tough, bad ass girl. She's just epic. That's how I can put it. Will she ever find a way out? P.S Don't tell anybody about this! But she's a goddess who can do ANYTHING. LITERALLY ANYTHING. Not joking. Don't tell anybody! Also, she has a third eye. Whoops! I wasn't allowed to share that little secret!

Even after he left the two women and went back to his room, Axel couldn't stop being nervous since it was possible that Zeus had already found out about his existence. 

Though the possibility of it was very less, it was possible that he might have been unlucky and met Lanying when her father was watching her. 

Turning sweaty with just the thought of imagining what would happen in Zeus did indeed find out about him, Axel couldn't sit still anymore. 

Entering the bathroom in hopes of using a cold shower go calm down, Axel had just stripped and turned the water on when someone entered the bathroom.

"Fuck... Not you again."

"Humph! I can't believe you'd speak like that to me even after meeting the girl. How did you know it was me anyway?"

"Even though you aren't actually here, whenever you take over someone's body there is a peculiar sweet scent around you."

"Awwww..."

"A sweet and toxic scent which makes me want to run away."

"Awwwww.. "

Saying the same thing in a different tone, Aphrodite who had taken over the body of one of the female staff in the hotel asked, "So, how was it? Isn't she perfect like I said she was?"

"Oh yeah. She's so perfect that I'm never going to meet her again."

"Oohhh... You found out already?"

Rolling his eyes and almost punching the wall, Axel said, "Yeah. I figured it out. Setting me up with a daughter of Zeus? Why didn't you just arrange a blind date for me and Athena?!"

Almost screaming, Axel for an instant forgot that he shouldn't be throwing around the names of Gods and Goddesses so carelessly. 

"Sssshhhhh... You look like you're going to attract their attention by yourself."

Walking near Axel and hugging him, Aphrodite asked, "I didn't want to say anything, but shouldn't you be more respectful in the graces of a Goddess? How come you didn't even stop bathing."

Pushing Aphrodite away without the slightest concern, Axel who almost destroyed his life and caused trouble to the five women he cared the most about showed that he wasn't in a good mood. 

"Humph! Forget about her father, Lanying is truly the best woman for you. Once you get close to each other and she opens up to you, she'll both become the woman who loves you the most as well as your best supporter. Due to the blood of Gods in her veins, there is no saying how strong she'll become. The right to become a deity is more with her than you already."

"Think about it."

Leaving after saying those words, Aphrodite made the woman whom she just took overthink that she was suffering from amnesia to not remember how she turned wet. 


... 


Once Aphrodite left, Axel locked the door so that she didn't come back, or anyone else didn't disturb him as he started thinking about what to do under the cold shower which was doing its part in keeping him calm. 

Aphrodite's words weren't wrong because as someone who possessed the blood of a God, and not just any God but Zeus himself, Lanying had more right and qualifications to become a Deity than him. 

After all, what he possessed was just the True Essence of the Goddesses. And his body was something which was created artificially from using the Essence of Chaos. 

So, even though he was stronger and had more potential than Lanying in cultivation, when it came to the right to become a God, Lanying was the one who had a higher chance than him. 

This was because the five Goddesses unfortunately couldn't find a method to use their blood and fuse it with him during the process of his creation. 

Also, Lanying was truly a beauty who brought out both the best and worst in every man making it harder for Axel to stop thinking about her even when he wanted to do so. 

That beauty was truly on the level of competing against real Goddesses. 

Thinking about this, Axel couldn't help but mutter, "It isn't wrong to live one more woman, is it?"

This was when it struck him. Laying could be his ticket in diffusing one of the biggest threats of his future. 

Putting aside how beautiful she was, Lanying's existence was enough for Axel to blackmail Zeus into keeping his own existence a secret. 

After all, he remembered Hestia saying that Hera was fed up with Zeus and vowed to leave him if she found out he cheated on her again. 

And considering the time she told him and Lanying's age, Axel despite not being completely sure guessed that Zeus cheated on Hera after promising to not do so. 

So, if he and Lanying ended up becoming a couple, he'd have more power in his hand to keep Zeus silent about him if and when found out.

Zeus thought not completely invincible across all the mythologies, was one of the strongest Gods who without any doubt could cause trouble for Gods who weren't a part of his own mythology.

Therefore, if Axel could diffuse the threat of Zeus even before he threatened him, his path to becoming a God would turn a whole lot simpler.

Created by five virgin deities to become their husband, will our hero manage to become a God worthy of them?

We entered the gate and after a while, we were on the middle floor and we started to search for Ikelos Familia's member. We used Renya as the bait since we don't know their appearance so we'll just use Renya since she's a Xenos herself, Renya turned into Arachne and started to wander the floor. We followed her from behind about 50 meters and the plan worked, 2 guys started to attack Renya and I conjured water chains and wrapped the attackers. Renya turned back to human, I teleported the squirming attackers to the 'Soul world' and we walked back to the Daedelus street. Hephy informed us where the black market was so we started to move to that place, I conjured a plate of water big enough for us to step into and flew faster to that place.
When we arrived, I dismissed the previous Shadow Clones and spawned new ones, I spawned 50 of me and they spread out to search for Ikelos. Then Hephy Familia came to the scene and joined us with Hephy herself, we searched the black market for slaves and such. We killed the one who was selling them and searched their book ledger and buyer's name as we will locate the buyers and rescue the sold ones, as we were searching the black market a Shadow Clone reported that they found Ikelos but the Shadow Clones haven't made a move since Ikelos could just use his Arcanum, which we don't know yet but he's a God of Nightmares so maybe his power is entering one's dream.
I told the Shadow Clones to join Hephy Familia searching for slavers or human traffickers and rescue the slaves and such then looked for buyer's name, I mean I don't need money since I got Hephy by my side and If the buyers are merchants, rich persons or even Gods we could just steal the documents of the land and their treasures, easy. Then I went to Ikelos location meanwhile the girls are going to help Hephy Familia, I didn't fly with water wings or anything but just walk. I arrived at Ikelos' location and he was at a shop with no sign or identification, he was sitting at his shop and I entered the shop. He looked at me but he never saw me before so he became vigilant, he said
"Which Familia are you from?" He signaled 8 men at the shop to surround me, the 8 men surrounded me and took out swords and daggers from their waist.
"None." I said, I conjured 8 water spears and sent it to the heads of the 8 men. Ikelos became scared at that moment and started to run but like I will let him to. I wrapped my Enkidu around him and asked
"Where's your book ledger? And tell me each of your buyer's Familia." He just squirmed around but no avail because Enkidu was basically a chain that grew stronger as the target had more divinity but Gods and Goddesses here can't use their divinity or Arcanum freely only in a pinch and their strength is the same with normal people. So he can't free himself from Enkidu and he just squirming around trying to escape from me, he was desperate like Ishtar did but he doesn't have anything that I want except the question I asked.
"You know what let me save the Xenos first then I'll question you again." I said while conjuring water chains to carry him around, I went deeper to his shop and found there's 5 Xenon caged up with lifeless eyes.
"Hello there! I'm going to transport you to a place where your kin is so don't panic." I said, but they didn't nod to me or anything just looking at me. I transported them to the 'Soul world' and I thought about making a job about social worker since I need them to be ready at the spot for new people or I will be calling it the Newcomers' area, anyway the social worker will be stationed at the Newcomers' area and be ready for helping people that had trauma, PTSD, or broken, and therefore I want to station them in the Newcomers' Area and I could convert them to nurses, daycare workers, and workers at an event that I made.
Utaha was on the move at that moment, I mean rather than her being at home and became bored, why not just make her do things that could make her be more well-known. Back to the business, I went to the girls' location also bringing Ikelos. When I arrived the girls, Hephy Familia, and my Shadow Clones were still rescuing slaves, and such, I brought Ikelos to see the process of rescuing and killing the slavers and such. I made him watched the whole thing then after we finished it was already mid-afternoon, I brought Ikelos to the center of Orario which is the Babel. When I arrived, I made sure Ikelos was gagged by my water blob so its as if he was screaming in water, I shouted
"GODS AND GODDESSES! LADIES AND GENTLEMEN! NICE TO MEET YOU! I'M ALEX WALSH, HERE TO INTEROGATE THIS GOD WHO IS CALLED IKELOS." I shouted, I brought Ikelos to the air so he could be seen by all of those who are watching.
"AS I WAS SAYING, HE, WHO SOLD SLAVES AND TORTURED THEM. HE, WHO MADE A GATE CONNECTING THE DAEDALUS STREET AND THE DUNGEON. HE, WHO DEEMED WHAT'S RIGHT AND WRONG FROM HIS PERSPECTIVE OF HAVING FUN. SHALL BE INTEROGATE RIGHT HERE, BELOW THE BABEL, UNDER THE WATCH OF GODS AND GODDESSES." I continued, need to be charismatic since I need to rope the people. I conjured water cylinder blades around me and shouted
"IKELOS, HOW MANY HAVE YOUR FAMILIA SOLD? KILLED? TORTURED?" I dispersed the blob of water in his mouth,
"LIES, ALL OF THEM ARE LIES. I, IKELOS, HAVE AN EXPLORATION FAMILIA NOT SLAVERS, KILLERS, OR TORTURERS. THIS MAN KILLED MY FAMILIA'S MEN, HE KILLED MANY PEOPLE IN THE RURAL!" He shouted, he made an innocent face and cried also. I sent a cylinder blade to his arm and cut it,
"KNOW THIS IS YOUR REWARD FOR LYING, KEEP THIS GOING I'LL CUT YOUR WHOLE LIMBS AND I WILL HEAL YOUR LIMBS AND MAKE IT GOOD AS NEW THEN KEEP CUTTING IT." He was screaming in pain, the onlookers were nauseous but they kept watching it. Then Hephy shouted to the crowds
"I, HESPHEASTUS, HAVE EVIDENCE OF THE MEN WHO WERE KILLED IN THE RURAL AS THEY ARE SLAVERS, HUMAN TRAFFICKERS, AND MANY MORE. THOSE WHO WANTED TO LET IKELOS LIVE SHALL KNOW MY FAMILIA POWER!" SH*T SHE'S SO HOT, those words and her fierce aura, GOD IT WAS SO HOT! I took a deep breath to calm myself and concentrated again.
"IKELOS SPEAK THE TRUTH! IF YOU DON'T I WILL MAKE YOU FEAR LIVING IN THIS WORLD!" I shouted again, Ikelos was having cold sweat and he kept squirming but he didn't speak anything. So I sent water cylinder blades towards his limbs and cut them then I healed them and cut them again, and I repeated the cycle 3 times. His face was covered by tears, shots, and saliva, he stopped me and started to speak
"I SOLD, KILLED, AND TORTURED OVER HUNDREDS OR THOUSANDS, I FORGOT THE NUMBERS. THE BUYERS ARE EREBUS, DIAN CECHT, KAKIA, AND THE REST YOU CAN SEARCH AT THE BOOK LEDGER AT MY SHOP. PLEASE DON'T KILL ME! LET ME LIVE PLEASE!" he shouted, the onlookers were shocked when Dian Cecht name mentioned because he was the God of healing, and therefore people see him as a good God but if you look from another perspective he's a God of healing yet he needed patients, like Soma the wine drinker who came to the mortal world just to make the most perfect wine, he bought slaves and experimented to them. Poisons, nasty cuts, illnesses, plagues, incurable diseases, and many more he needed to perfect his method of healing through using these slaves to be exposed to the diseases or torture them or cut their limbs or many more.
(AN: I decided to make the story to get sideways and I'm just adding names of actual evil Gods but only mentioning them a little bit, there will be no Kakia in the future chapter and such.)
I was disgusted the moment I was told that Dian Cecht was a God of healing but I could just fill his position though I mean I already comprehended Law of Healing but nah it's too much of a hassle, I already got a world to manage.
"CITIZENS OF ORARIO I, ALEX WALSH, SENTENCED IKELOS TO DEATH, NOT SENT TO HEAVEN BUT DEATH. THOSE GODS AND GODDESSES, AND PEOPLE WHO BOUGHT LIVES AND SLAVES, KNOW THIS THAT YOU WILL BE LIKE IKELOS." I shouted to the onlookers, I sent water cylinder blades towards Ikelos' body and cut him to pieces. I don't give a damn about Ouranos, he ruled the city yet he let these c*nts free? What a ruler you are Ouranos.
Then the people, who are watching me, looked at Ikaros corpse and waiting for him to ascend to heaven but nothing happened, he died like a mortal. They looked at me with respect because they knew that this city hadn't been ruled properly and no one has done anything even the Gods and Goddesses except for Astraea Familia since they were the police of Orario in the past.

First World: Danmachi
1 Chapter/day

Everyday was exactly the same thing. For the past week I had done nothing different, nothing other than what the schedule said on my fridge. It was useful, considering it helped me focus on what I needed to do, but outrageously repetitive, even for a gaming addict like me.

Get up, grind some skills, go to school, grind some more skills, and then repeat the whole process all over again the next day.

I had to rest in between, allowing my MP and SP to recover, but other than that, I was either raising my stat points by studying or working out, grinding in my [ID: Create], or levelling up skill proficiency usually while I did the other two things.

After just a single week of non-stop grinding, my [Status] looked a little something like this....

[Name: Tendo Akira] [Title: The Gamer]
[Race]: [Two-Winged Angel]
[Level: 33] [Experience: 99.99%]
[HP: 840/840] [MP: 1,410/1,410] [SP: 780/780]
[STR: 60 (55)] [VIT: 78 (60)] [AGI: 65 (55) ] [INT: 141 (101)] [WIS: 65 (55)] [PER: 18] [LUC: 10]
[Stat Points: 120]
[Money: $600]

I had decided to save up my stat points for exactly this moment, just before I was about to reach Level 34. Part of me, the experimental gamer that liked to mess around with various builds and play-styles wanted to just dump all my stat points into something like INT or PER, but I had already made my mind up regarding where I would put my stats.

"..... VIT.....", I muttered, pressing down on the [ + ] button beside the stat.

Improving my Vitality was something that I had always promised myself that I would do. Not only would it massively increase my HP and SP to beyond that of even a Devil like Rias or Sona, but the passives it would grant me would increase both my survivability in addition to my stamina and physical endurance.

In addition, the build that I was basing my development on, the [Skylight Stream Paladin], specialised in INT and VIT. It could deal out massive amounts of damage quickly, and survive long enough so that you could regenerate MP, plus being able to tank just about anything that came at me.

Other than [Life Drain], which I had only levelled up to Level 10, I didn't have any other skill which allowed me to restore HP. 

[Small Mana Potions] could do the trick if I was in a quick bind, but I always had Asia behind me, who could heal anything short of a destroyed limb. Her [Twilight Healing] was an extremely valuable [Sacred Gear], especially for its supportive abilities.

I heard a couple notifications go off, as I pressed the [Yes] button at the bottom of the page. Instantly I was overcome with a wave of [Qi], and I could feel my [Touki Manipulation] activate, covering my body in a thick, slightly golden aura.

[Ding! Due to reaching 100 in Vitality a passive skill has been created!]

[Flawless Form (Passive)]
[Level: N/A] [Experience: N/A]
[A skill that denotes a flawless level physical body. The degree of vitality that is contained within is beyond that of most supernatural beings. Allows the body to handle and exert a greater pressure than what it can normally handle]
[Passively increases VIT by 20%]
[Passively lowers physical damage taken by 15%]
[Passively increases health by 20%]
[Passively increases all resistances by 10%]

[Ding! Due to reaching 150 in Vitality a passive skill has been created!]

[Sovereign Physique]
[Level: N/A] [Experience: N/A]
[A skill that denotes a physique that exceeds all others. One that stands above all others. The degree of vitality contained within the body exceeds the limits of other beings. Allows the body to contain a stronger [Qi] when compared to others of the same level. Allows the user to manipulate [Touki]. Allows the user to feel the base of life of those at a lower level]
[Passively increase VIT by 40%]
[Passively lowers physical damage taken by 20%]
[Passively increases health by 40%]
[Passively increases all resistances by 10%]
[Doubles [Touki] strength]
[Triples [Qi] within the body]
[Can detect the [Qi] within those whose level is lower than your own]

I let out a deep breath, letting my [Qi] spill out of my body, and flow throughout the surrounding area.

I was in an [ID: Create: Empty], so I was the only living being within the pseudo-dimension, however I could still feel the base of life from everything around me, despite my Instant Dungeon overlaying the real world.

From the tiniest, smallest insect crawling on the ground, to the tallest, wisest oak tree standing in the centre of this forest, I could sense everything in the outside world. In addition to-.

"Hmm? My [Qi], its-", my [Qi], which I knew was to be considered [Venus Qi], flowed in the world around me, turning the same bright, yet somehow dark, golden colour as it coursed throughout the world around me.

Slowly, wilted flowers regained their colour and life, and dying, near leafless trees quickly grew back all their leaves and branches, the entire would turning back into a bright green and rainbow world.

The base of life within all of these things, pulsed back with a renewed vigour after being exposed to my [Venus Qi]. 

I still hadn't figured out exactly what the the Concept of [Venus] embodied, however, considering what all Gods and supernatural beings that embodied Venus represented, I could at least narrow down my line of questioning.

'Aphrodite and Venus themselves represent love, fertility, beauty and passion. Astarte and Ishtar embody the aspects of war, sex, fertility and love. All four of them were beings of unparalleled beauty, while Lucifer and Helel, both represented the Light that [Venus] gives off. A symbol of hope, and a symbol of guidance.....', I let out a deep breath as I sat down in the lotus position, hoping my thoughts would become clearer as I entered [Mediation].

'My own views on the Concept of Venus is closer to Lucifer and Helel, rather than the four Goddesses of Beauty. [Venus] is both the Morning Star and the Evening Star, a being that lights the way for the future; a beacon for where humanity has yet to go.....', 

My wings and two halo's appeared without me meaning to, the larger halo, the one encircling the smaller one, transformed into something more like a Dharma Wheel, with eight protrusions sticking out, making it look like a strange parody between a crown and a magic circle.

I ignored the sudden changes to my outer halo and focused on my train of thought, completely disregarding the [Ding] I heard going off in my head.

'But I just can't ignore the aspects that the four Goddesses of Beauty represent!', I shouted to myself in the back of my mind, 'Each denote a specific detail that [Venus] embodies, that Lucifer and Helel do not! Aphrodite represents beauty. Ishtar represents war. Venus represents fertility and Astarte represents sex..... Even Baidi, the White Deity from the Chinese Pantheon is associated with the Western Cardinal Direction..... what do all these things have in common.....'.

My thoughts grew deeper and deeper. Trying to find a linking factor between the different Gods from the half-dozen or so different Pantheons inside my head.

Even in the [ID: Create] the sun slowly set over the horizon, and the bright Evening Star rose up to takes its place. The distance between that star and I was as far as the gap between the Heaven and the Earth, however, I still felt its presence reaching out to me, as I felt its power even from such a distance.

I knew that my Embodiment had something to do with the Concept of [Venus]. It may not be as strong as the Concept of [Dreams] or [Nothingness], but it was still esoteric in nature. More so than something like the Concept of [Fire] or the Concept of [Strength].

None of them were weak by any means, but from what I could gather, the Concept of [Love] was far superior to the Concept of [Happiness]. It wasn't just a strength or power level sort of thing, but an innate, more archaic sort of comprehension.

'All of them represents aspects of life. Lucifer and Helel both refer to the inevitable rise and fall of life, as the Morning Star falls and rises once more as the Evening Star. Aphrodite and Venus both represent the birthing of life. They embody the aspects of fertility, which allow them to create life even when the mother or father may be impotent....'

'Astarte and Ishtar denote the passing of life and the movement towards death. They represent aspects of war, a conjunction of life and a path towards death. Ishtar had a sister who was the Goddess of the Underworld, another showing of how life eventually flows towards death....'

'Even Baidi, the White Deity from the Chinese Pantheon, was associated with the Western Cardinal Direction. The same side that the sun rises from every day. In addition to Autumn, the season of passing, one of change and inevitable rebirth as Winter fades and Spring arrives....'.

Life.

That was the thinking factor between all the Gods that took on some aspect of Venus. All of them, somehow linking to the base of life within every living being, and the manipulation of said base of life.

Life is born.... and life is destroyed. The cycle of life and death repeats itself over and over again. Flowing throughout the universe just like-.

"Mana..... from all things mana can be derived, and derived from mana all things can. I created [Kun] and [Peng] from mana. I created life from [Mana].... is this a coincidence, or was it predestined?....", I couldn't help but wonder.

If from the beginning, I already possessed an affinity with the Concept of [Venus] but didn't realise it until now. My Angelic Embodiment was always meant to be [Venus], but I had to figure out how to get there on my own....

I let out a deep breath letting those thoughts flow out of me just as my breath did.

It was no use wanting to change something that I had already set my mind on.

"If [Venus] really does represent Life. And Venus is the "Light that guides Life", than so be it. I shall become the "Light that guides Life"".

I heard a couple [Dings!] go off and a flood of power fill my body. It was then that I realised it.

I smiled,

"Concepts always come in two. The "Illusion of the Dream". And the "Nothingness of Infinity".... they are both Concepts. On the other hand-".

I felt two extra appendages on my back, changing my [Race] and [Status] once more.

My gaze set upon the [Race] part of my [Status], the [Two-Winged Angel] transforming into the [Four-Winged Angel] as my powers practically doubled due to the sudden enhancement of power.

[Ding! For continuously pondering on the Concept of [Venus] you have gained + 1 WIS!]

[Ding! Due to a continuous action a new skill has been created! Due to a continuous transformation using the power of Venus the new skill [Type Life] has been created! It allows one to alter aspects of the world around them, changing the base of life within the things around them. Can control the base of life to its utmost extents]

[Type Life (Passive/Active)]
[Level: N/A] [Experience: N/A]
[A skill that denotes a connection to the concept of Venus. Contrary to being a title, this skill highlights the actual representation the user has over the concept of Venus. Being the "Light that guides Life", allows for one to passively govern all life that is not related to another concept]
[Passively triple VIT]
[Passively triple PER]
[Passively triples HP regeneration]
[Passively triples SP regeneration]
[Actively increases VIT by 100%]
[Actively increases PER by 100%]
[Passively triple all resistances]
[Actively control the base of life of living beings]
[Actively control [Qi] in living beings]
[Note: Overuse may result in physical changes]

My eyes widened at the sheer bonuses the skill gave before narrowing slightly at the note at the bottom.

'What type of skill has a note in its description. Unless it's some sort of forbidden power?', it was definitely possible.

Some games possessed high tier, end game level skills which used HP or even random stat points to be utilised. The trade-off for these types of skills were huge, although the end result almost always ended up being the opposing forces defeat.

The skills were definitely broken, but the repercussions were equally as huge for those willing to use them.

I shook my head looking at it once more.

'It as a "chance" of causing physical changes. It doesn't even specify that it is me who suffers from these changes. It might be the target for all I know.....', I let out a breath before snapping my fingers sending a wave of [ID: Destroy] to shatter my pseudo-dimension.

"Hmm. What astounding changes....".

As I unfurled my four golden-white wings I heard a voice echo from behind me. Instantly I activated [Touki Manipulation] in addition to [Light Aura]. Two [Light Mana Swords] appeared in both of my hands as ten [Light Mana Spears] hovered around me.

"Oh? Not bad reflexes at all. Too bad your ability to sense Qi is atrocious, although your strength may exceed my own. I told you he's different from the others Bikou". I narrowed my eyes and saw several figures hidden in the trees. 

From what I could tell, four people stood hidden in the shadows, all of whom had their aura and [Qi] hidden from me.

I muttered,

[Type Life].

The outer crown, shaped halo shone, and started rotating as I felt their bases of life clearer now, all of whom had varying expressions of shock and interest showing from their [Qi].

"Oh?", the same sensual, female voice rung out, "A [Four-Winged Angel] showing that much power? And here I was under the impression that the God of the Bible wasn't making Angels anymore. I wonder just what he represents....".

Another voice rang out, distinctly accented despite his Japanese words.

"I too am interested in the power that this Angel shows. It's not everyday you meet a Heavenly Angel. Especially after Michael has taken charge..... I shall be the one to test out his strength", there were shouts of opposition at his words, with the one female and the one called Bikou shouting as they wanted to be the ones to fight.

"Hey Arthur, get in line! I found him, so I want to fight him!".

"Shut up t*ts for brains! I want to fight him!".

"What did you say monkey boy!? You wanna piece of me!?".

"Any day, any time, p*ssy cat! I'll kick your *ss any day of the week!".

Two distinct sighs came from the last figure, in addition to the one they called Arthur.

The last figure, whose back had wings of light coloured white and blue turned to the one holding the sword that was leaking out a [Light Aura] and spoke,

"Don't kill him Arthur. We don't want to kill a potential member now do we?".

I took a step back ward and raised my swords.

My [Observe] was too low level to even glimpse at their names, let alone their stats and levels and stuff.

"Arthur" raised his sword two which I did the same. None of them were leaking out any intent to kill, so I didn't think they planned on killing me.

I smiled,

It was definitely a good chance to test out my new powers though.

I admit that I was completely out of my league.

Gods, Angels, Devils, Dragons, Yokai and Monsters of all shape and sizes were the ones with true power. Sheer raw power was the only thing that mattered to these supernatural beings

Getting caught up in a battle between a devil and a fallen angel was not what I expected on my Tuesday night. Nor was being informed of how irrelevant humanity was in the scheme of things.

Playing games was the only thing I was good at. I was better than anybody else and I played harder than everybody else.

I played smarter, harder and for longer in order to grind for whatever character or item or achievement I wanted to get.

I played by the rules of the game and won even with those cheating existences like Sirzechs and Ajuka.

But the thing about me was....

[Ding! You have leveled up! Your HP, MP and SP have all been restored. You have 5 unspent stat points].

I was born to play.

Ley Baler died. 
However, he later discovered that he has nowhere to go because a war of goddesses erupted in the world of the deceased and destroyed the kingdom of the dead! 

Poor him and his fellow souls!

Thankfully, he got saved by another beautiful goddess and was even turned into a Skyworld dweller. However, since he is not a natural-born Anito, one of the lowest ranking races of the Skyworld, he would have to create followers and believers on earth. Otherwise, his weak spirit will slowly wane till it reduces to not even a speck of dust in the great wide universe.

The challenge though is that his powers have nothing to do with healing or anything useful. So how would he gather followers? What should he do with his abilities that are more suited for construction sites?!!!


Follow Ley's journey as he established his own church, discover why the kingdom of the dead was attacked, and attain real godhood through his weird, no, amazing abilities.

....
Once upon a time, The Creator willed the creation of the Three Great Worlds.

Once upon a time, the soul of a dead man turned into an Anito, a weak god of the land.

And once upon a time, a myth regarding manipulation of fate took its place in history as a young man created roads interconnecting people's destinies...

Minas looked at the pool of water before him, trying to establish a connection with Mai. However, before image of Mai could become clear, it rippled out of focus before once again becoming a reflection of the surroundings before it.

"D*mn it!" Minas cursed, splashing the water before him. He bent over the bowl and gasped as he felt his power trickle out of him. The world was spinning. "D*mn it," he panted. 

"Lord?" a voice called out from behind him, and Minas had enough time to turn his head before he passed out. 

.....

"He's pushing himself too much, Lorna!" 

"I know, I know! He needs to calm down, Kirna!" 

Minas sighed and kept his eyes closed for a second more. He didn't want to deal with these chatty twin goddesses. 

"I think he's awake, Lorna!"

"I know, I know! Maybe he still doesn't feel well, Kirna?" 

"No," Minas sighed and opened his eyes. "I'm awake." He slowly raised himself off the bed, but Lorna placed a hand on his shoulder. Kirna placed her hand on top of Lorna's and pushed him into a sitting position. 

"You need to sit. Right, Lorna?" 

"I know, I know! He does need to sit, Kirna!" 

"Will you please stop that, goddesses!" Minas groaned, holding his head in his hands.

"Stop what? Right, Lorna?"

"I know, I know! I don't get it either, Kirna!" 

Minas pointed towards the two goddesses that were sitting on chairs before the bed that he was sitting in. "That 'I know, I know' and saying your names. It gets annoying." 

Lorna and Kirna looked at each other before they cracked up. "Phew," Lorna said, wiping a few tears from her eyes, "I guess he's fine if he still has enough strength to complain."

Kirna slyly grinned, "You're plan worked, Lorna." They high-fived. 

Minas looked at the two suspiciously. "What plan?" 

Looking at the ill god before them, Lorna replied with a solemn face, "We asked Qori to give us something that would transfer some of our power to you." She looked at Kirna. "But Qori said that the only way for that to happen is if you get emotional."

"We weren't sure what to do, but I guess that ever since you met that human, you've gotten more..." Kirna looked at Lorna. Both of them replied, "Alive." 

"So? What happened?" Minas continued to ask, one of his hands cupping his chin. 

"Well, we fed you the medication, and since you got annoyed just now, it worked!" Lorna replied, a happy look on her face. 

"What do you mean it worked? I don't feel any-" Feeling a surge of energy stopped Minas' words in their track. He gasped and closed his eyes, calming the ripples that the energy caused in the small amount of energy he had left. 

"You've gotten so weak, Lord," Lorna looked at Minas in sadness. 

"Yet Brqi'a has only gotten stronger," Kirna grimly said.

Minas sighed and held his face in his hands. "How far has the preparations gone for Brqi'a? Do you mind telling me, Kirna?" 

"He's gotten most of the Gods on his side," Kirna began, "Almost all of the neutral Gods were convinced to follow him because of-"

"Tirna's prophecy?" Minas interrupted. 

Kirna nodded. "They're afraid that the human that you've fallen in love with would destroy our existence." 

"That's stupid!" Minas growled, hitting the bed sheets menacingly. 

Kirna and Lorna spared each other a glance before Kirna continued. "Well, it doesn't seem to be stupid to the many of them. There are only ten of us that haven't defected to the other side, plus a few other neutral Gods."

"Who?" 

"Well, obviously Lorna and I. Qori and Eolia and Tirna are still on your side, though we're assuming that Tirna still is since she can't say for herself," Kirna began.

"Wurv, the God of Liberty, choose our side. And Croepl, the Goddess of Agriculture, and Noevl, the Goddess of Springtime, both chose your cause. And finally the other twins as well," Lorna finished. 

"Lupa and Sola?" Minas asked, surprised. 

"Yes," Kirna nodded. "Lorna says that it's because-"

"They found that Brqi'a wanted to bring suffering to the humans. The twins didn't agree to it, so they chose your side, m'Lord," Lorna said.

Minas sighed, his eyebrows furrowing. "And all of the other Gods agree?"

Lorna and Kirna glanced at each other, sadness on their faces. "They see themselves as greater than the humans, m'Lord," Kirna began. "They believe that they shouldn't serve humans, but that humans need to serve them."

"That's b*llshit!" Minas yelled. "Why don't they understand how important the humans are? They are innovation and creativity. They are what allow us to advance." 

Kirna and Lorna nodded. "You don't need to tell us, m'Lord," Lorna said, "We know this." 

Sighing, Minas raised his head from his hands and looked at the twin goddesses before him. "I'm sorry for my earlier outburst, twins. I just- I just don't know why these Gods aren't willing to understand the implications of their decisions." 

"They're scared," Lorna began. 

"From what?" Minas said.

"They're scared of change, m'Lord," Kirna replied.

"I mean, look at the prophecy- 'A single glance and heart entranced/The King of Gods has fallen/But greed and envy mark his demise/By a deceitful god's despise/With few true and loyal allies/ He bears the world for his queen/While existence hang upon her dreams'. It literally screams that change hangs upon the balance of a puny, insignificant human," Lorna said. "Your human."

"She isn't mine, yet," Minas subconsciously replied. He rubbed his face, "Tirna's prophecies are always correct, but they tend to be hard to interpret. What do they believe that the prophecy means, Lorna?" 

"Well, obviously, the Gods believe that your time has come, m'Lord. And that it is now Brqi'a's turn to rule the Gods."

"And?"

Lorna gulped, "And, like we said before, they think that your human- I mean, your almost human is going to destroy everything." 

"So they plan to... what? Bring suffering to the humans?" 

Kirna paled, "Not just that, they plan to kill your almost human."

"Mai!?!" Minas quickly jumped out of the bed, "Why do they want to kill her!" 

"Because 'existence hang upon her dreams', but-" Kirna paused and looked at Lorna.

"She's taking the test to become a God. They can't kill her outright," said Lorna. 

Minas sighed in relief, but their next words made him pause. 

"But they can always influence things in the human world, m'Lord. They can make it so that she dies an unnatural death and-" Kirna replied. 

"Fails her goddess tempering," Minas whispered. 

"Plus," Lorna's voice was merely a whisper, "She still needs the waters of rejuvenation and the Soulful flower." 

Straightening himself, Minas looked at the young goddesses before him with a determined gaze. His eyes flashed with a glint before he spoke, "The odds aren't in our favor, but even so, I'll make sure that she'll make it." 

"Even at the cost of your life, m'Lord?" Kirna anxiously asked.

Minas turned his head to look at the concerned goddess. He slowly nodded, "Although I would love to live the rest of eternity with her if she so chooses, I would much rather that she survive than me. I've lived a long existence, while hers is only just started." 

"We won't let that happen," Lorna gripped Minas' hand, "You are our Lord, King Minas. While your almost human is going to be our Queen. We won't let either of you disappear." 

Minas laughed and the resoluteness in his voice was captivating. "Of course I would do the same." 

.........

After Minas had rested in the twins' house, he was sent to Qori's hospital on the grounds of his health. 

"So you're back, disgusting," was the first sentence out of Qori's mouth. Minas laughed when he saw the true disgust on Qori's face.

"I like you, Qori. You're reactions to me are so much more refreshing than others," Minas said. 

"Shut your mouth. Even your voice gives me a headache," She looked at the god before her in anger. "What were you doing. Oh wait, I know. You were doing something stupid." 

"I had to make sure that Mai's okay." 

"By using almost all of your energy to make a connection with the human world? This is the time when the curse is the worst, Minas. And here you are spending your energy like you've got a surplus of it. If that isn't idiotic, I don't know what is." 

"But it worked out-"

"By putting the strain on the twins! They won't be able to leave their godspace in a few millennia, Minas! If your existence wasn't in danger, I wouldn't have had to go through with these extreme measures," Qori's anger radiated off of her body in waves. "And not only that, but stupid Uyir went over to Brqi'a's side! Why do you have to be so weak and stupid!" 

Minas stared at the goddess before him in sympathy. "I'm sorry, Qori." Hearing the god's apology, Qori burst into tears. 

"You-you're just s-so unbelievable," she sobbed, "You need to care more about yourself, Minas." 

"Mmhm," Minas gently replied, patting Qori's hand.

"You also need to stop being so stupid." 

"Mhmm." 

"And you need to save your human." 

He tightened his hold on Qori's hand almost subconsciously, "Yes." 

It took about an hour for Qori's sobs to cease. It was afterwards that she went dove into business.

"The wound on your soul was aggravated. You're going to lose more power now, Minas."

"What else?" 

"You can't contact the human world. At least not anymore." 

Minas rose from his sitting position, distress in his features. "I can't do that, Qori. I need to see-"

"You need to see your human, I know. But don't you realize that you have ten Gods on your side? Sure, there aren't as many of us, but we're steadfast and loyal and we're also able to contact the human realm. We can see your human. Plus, there are still a few Gods that are neutral. Last I've checked, Ocis and Releva, have almost chosen your side." 

"I don't want Ocis," Minas growled, angered.

"He's made a few mistakes, Minas, but don't we all? You can't blame him for the rest of existence. That's just not fair." 

Huffing, Minas turned his head away in contemplation. "Tell him that he's in, then. Let's move on to Mai. She's taking her goddess test right now."

"Yes, and?" 

"How long do you think she can go without the waters of rejuvenation and the Soulful flower?" 

"You mean you haven't tempered her soul!?!" Qori shouted, a mixture of horror and surprise on her face. 

"Don't yell," Minas said, wincing. His head was pounding.

"I'm sorry," Qori absentmindedly replied, "but taking the Gods test without a tempered soul is nigh impossible. She shouldn't have been able to take the test without an already tempered soul." 

"But she's taking the exam right now." 

Qori looked at Minas. "If that's so, then she can only last two more lifetimes before her soul power runs dry." 

Minas took a deep breath. "Then we only have two lifetimes to get her the waters of rejuvenation and the Soulful flower." 

"That's not all, Minas," Qori continued, "We need you to keep your power above a certain limit. The only reason why Brqi'a hasn't taken over your rule is because of your crown." Qori pointed at the inconspicuous black coronet on Minas' head. "And you can't keep your crown manifested if you don't at least have some power in excess." 

"I understand," sighed Minas. "So our war will be about our influence in the human realm?" 

Qori nodded, "And we need to do our best to make sure that your human passes." 

"What a hard task."

"Especially since you are incapacitated, King." 

........... In Minas' castle

Minas stood before the scrying water, the Gods that actively choose his side surrounding him. 

"Do you see her?" Qori curiously asked. 

Minas shook his head and stared at the water harder. 

"I should be able to find her," Croepl said. "Since it's spring at her time and as the Goddess of Agriculture, this should be a piece of cake."

"What I don't understand is why you won't let me do it, Mother," Noevl huffed, crossing her arms. 

"She's right, you know," Sola replied, pointed towards Noevl, "She is the Goddess of Springtime." 

"Yes," Croepl agreed, "but she also has a terrible sense of direction." 

The rest of the Gods snickered as Noevl's face turned red. "Mother!" 

Croepl snickered. Suddenly, the scrying water before them flickered to the vision of a young girl with short brown hair and deep blue eyes.

"That's her!" Minas' pupils dilated, "That's Mai." 

Lupa looked at Minas and clapped him on the back. "You have good taste, m'Lord."

Glancing at the lewd smile on Lupa's face, both Minas and Sola hit him on the back of his head. "Don't be disgusting, brother!" Sola scolded, hitting her brother twice for good measure.

"What?" Lupa whined, "I was just saying the truth!" 

"One more word out of you," Minas began, "and I will personally rip out your reattached arm, Lupa." 

Lupa shivered and quietened. The Gods returned to the vision on the water. Mai was following two boys as she walked to a carriage. 

"Where is she going?" Minas muttered. He hadn't realized that his face had relaxed and the frown that had marred his featured had turned into a genuine smile. 

"Watch and maybe then you'll find out," Qori sarcastically said. 

They spent a few minutes for the carriage to arrive at their destination. "That was a bit long!" Eolia said, surprised. 

"Why is she- oh my goodness!" Sola yelped when the men appeared before Mai and her companions. Sola's eyes narrowed, "This is the work of Heshe, that b*tch!" 

"Calm down, Sola," Lupa whispered, "And please don't insult her. I still-"

She whirled around to look at her twin brother. "And she ripped your arm off as an answer! You need to get over her, Lupa! Don't be stupid!" 

"Focus, guys," Minas bellowed, his eyes glued to the Mai on the scrying water. "We need to figure out what they're trying to do to Mai." 

The Gods quietened as they focused on the tiny figure on the water's surface. 

"She's so- holy crap!" Eolia exclaimed, watching as there were more men inside the hotel.

"What can she do with her tiny body!?" Eolia looked at Minas with scared eyes. "We need to help her!" 

Minas looked at the worry on the Gods' face before him. He grimly shook his head. "Just watch." 

The Gods looked on in tense silence.

Mai had one purpose in life: to be a sacrifice. As such, the villagers of the village that Mai lived in treated her as just a sacrifice- she was treated with disdain and dislike. 
Not to be discouraged, Mai blatantly accepts her fate, determined to tell God that asking for sacrifices was stupid. When she had finally turned 12-years old and about to be buried alive underneath the cold, hard ground, something surprising occurs.

A BIG SHOUT OUT to Ravecat for the title page! I LOVE IT ♡♡

"My turn" After saying those words Masaru slammed his fist into Zhang's face forcing him back several steps, but it was just the beginning as Masaru and Zhang began to exchange attacks after attacks causing the surrounding winds to burst with shockwaves, rubbles jumping all over the place with no chance of resting on the ground. Masaru creates several magic circles as he unleashed elemental spells at Zhang who took a deep breath before taking it all out with a single dragon breath.

But Masaru used it as a distraction as he was busy scanning Zhang's divinity, but he felt conflicted as this man had several divinities all related to the Azure dragon but he could only deem one of them worthless for a short period of time. After making his decision Masaru teleports right behind Zhang as he slammed a roundhouse kick at the back of Zhang's head coated with thick worthless attributed demonic energy which caused a change within Zhang.

Zhang coughed upon impact but suddenly he felt something within him was shut down, when he turned to gaze at Masaru he felt what he lost "You bastard!" He screamed as his speed suddenly accelerated slamming his fist into Masaru's face sending him flying, Zhang was breathing heavily as he felt Masaru managed to shut down his divinity as Guardian of the East. This was a testament to saying Zhang became the fake and Masaru became the real one.

[Boy takes this battle serious, that dragon have gone mad! He is using his lifeforce to forcibly increase his divinity, right now he is struggling to control it and when he can it will be over!] Drago warned Masaru anxiously but Masaru felt wronged as he was actually already performing everything he had in mind since fighting a Mid Class God there was no room was half-assed magics. Masaru was taken aback when he sensed Akiva calling for him.

Not sure why his familiar was calling him but Masaru summoned his familiar almost slipping on his butt feeling shocked as he saw a gigantic Anaconda staring into his eyes, if he didn't have his connection he would have mistaken this anaconda for something else. He could feel that Akiva had advanced to peak Ultimate class similar to him. [My gawd! What the hell is up with this snake transforming into an anaconda, is she going to become a dragon next?] Drago mumbled as he was shocked again when Akiva smiled warmly before her body burst into particles.

The particles entered Masaru's body as Drago mumbled [She is taking Avalon Boy] Drago answered but was shocked at the sight how the snake was possessing Avalon, [What the hell is with you, collecting strange stuff and even stranger things happens] Drago moaned [IYA! Don't scratch grandpa!] [Grandpa bad! Big Sis is coming home!] [What you mean Byakko?] [I don't know] Masaru shook his head ignoring their discussion, but he felt his body was recovering faster, it appears that Avalon's performance has increased his recovery rate.

"Akiva?" Masaru called out as he felt Avalon within him vibrating, a smile formed on his face as he looks at Zhang with a challenging gaze. Zhang did not take this kindly as he blasts off towards Masaru leaving a rising cloud of dust in his tracks, Masaru smirked as he used trackless steps disappearing from Zhang's sight before he reappeared at the side slamming his fist at Zhang's ear causing it to start ringing, when Zhang attacked Masaru, Masaru once again disappeared and reappeared at his other side slamming his fist on his other ear.

The Gods and Goddess who was watching the fight felt conflicted to see one of their own beings completely toyed with by a boy hundreds of thousands of years younger than Seiryuu, Masaru was regaining his momentum as he could feel his body was becoming lighter. What he did not expect was that Origin was sending out a calling voice to his girls letting them feel he was in need of their faith, just as the Kissing Prayer gives the girls an immense boost upon a kiss, Masaru could recover his strength faster with the faith the girls held for him.

He was not certain why, but he could hear the voices of Ingvild, Akeno, Stephani, Jeanne, Shirone, Everest, Angelica, Yui, Ichika, Sakura, Roygun, Ulrika, Kuroka, Sona, all of them were calling out for him. His body was shivering as he felt as if adrenaline was making his body excited, 'What is going on? Why am I feeling so excited to beat up this lizard' Masaru thought 

Shortly afterwards, he heard a majestic feminine voice that felt so familiar >>Masaru... Although it is a bit too soon but without this, you will not be able to handle a peak Mid God, this technique you can only use it once a month... And it's called Groom's Vow, it will unlock Kouryuu's powers but it comes at a price<< Masaru knew everything came at the price but the price was surprisingly only internal damage which could be recovered with Avalon, the downside was the fact it could only be used once a month.

It was then Masaru felt the magic words float within his mind as he understood, seeing how Zhang was approaching him a smile form on his face as he could envision the girls around him as he whispered words that contained mystical powers that allowed the girls to hear his voice despite being far from one another.

"The Four directions with me as the Centre" Masaru muttered as winds began to swirls around him picking up rubbles and dirt, a trace of golden aura began to leak out of Masaru's body as his hair was flickering with a tint of gold. His eyes became slits while the amber colour transformed into gold "This represents the pride of my pledge" Suddenly his body burst out a thick layer of touki covering his body. 

"Regardless of threats, I shall exterminate my beloved's enemies! Kouryuu FIST!" Masaru screamed as the area around him exploded, the swirl of the wind did not break apart yet from him who already appeared in from of Zhang, the wind could not keep up with his speed as Masaru slammed his full-powered fist into Zhang's chest with force enough to pierce the fist through his chest, blood splashed out like fireworks at first before leaking out from the front and back of Zhang.

He coughed out blood as he glared at Masaru with an unwillingness facial expression not wanting to die in a place like this, but the attack of Masaru destroyed his divinity as well. "Why? Why do you have Kouryuu's power? Was it not... No...." Before Zhang completed his sentence he realized that the sacred gear was originally Kouryuu, Byakko had been protecting Kouryuu even to this day. Masaru's hair reverts back to its silver colour and his amber coloured eyes returned.

Zhang collapsed on the ground as he wheezes, Lin stopped her combat as she rushed over to Zhang. Masaru could not move his body as the side effect from gaining such a massive increase in power that could instantly kill a Mid Class God gave him internal injuries which Avalon was rapidly working on recovering for him. Uriel landed behind Masaru as he caught the boy before he fell "Good Work, you are reaching higher once again" Uriel spoke with a wry smile

"Gawd don't smile, I'm scared you will make me jump over the other side of the Fence" Masaru joked causing Uriel's face to cramp for a moment before he sighed, "At least you still have enough energy to joke around" Lin picked up Zhang in her embrace as she spoke with a shaky voice "Zhang, you can't go! You can't leave me alone!" Lin cried, Masaru who heard this was shocked as he could not understand the relationship between Zhang and Lin at all.

"L-Lin... Energy is... being... drained" Zhang mumbled before his eyes closed and he died at that very moment, Lin who heard his last words thought for a moment before she realized she had been having a weird feeling this entire time. 'Someone is pulling our divinity power?' Lin thought, the Chinese gods and goddesses glance at Masaru with complicated gazes, even if Zhang was wrong he was still one of theirs. But before anyone could react a man with an appearance in his early twenties with silver hair that is tied in a braided hairstyle wearing a silver robe with detailed accessories appeared before them all.

The man clapped his hands as he smiled broadly "Good Work! You have done something invaluable for us Masaru" hearing the man's voice Masaru forced himself to stand up as he glared at the man, he knew it, but he did not want to believe it. "EUCLID! Why are you alive!?" Masaru screamed out towards Euclid who smirked "It's surprising you knew about me, but boy... I was never dead to begin with" He muttered

From this exchange, the Gods and Goddesses knew Masaru was not a part of this and was used just like them, Euclid smiled as he looks at Lin with a pitiful gaze "It's a shame, for the shake of reviving the true dragon God the blood of a Dragon God is required. After all, we can't create things without ingredients" Euclid licks his lips as he could not find himself to take a liking to this woman, he prefered those who strongly resembled his sister after all.

"You did something to Meng Zhang and Me!? You are a traitor! We helped you and you failed to help us secure Kouryuu all those years ago!" Lin screamed out causing everyone to feel shocked, it was then they began to piece the situation together shivering. All these years, Meng Zhang and Lin Guang lied to them and betrayed them for the sake of Kouryuu's powers for their own selfishness? 

Euclid laughed happily as he takes out a small device with a glass container filled with golden liquid within it, if one look closes faint traces of golden aura was being pulled from Lin's body into the device that condenses it into liquid form. "In order to keep that sacred gear working, I had to get some batteries that could give me endless energy for the sake of our new world" Euclid muttered causing Masaru to shiver as he remembers just recently he was reported about the Holy Grail.

And the cost of using the Holy Grail extensively is not something one can do that easily unless they could supply endless energy for it, Masaru sighed as he still need to recover as he glances at Uriel "I'm fine" Masaru whispered softly, hearing Masaru's words Uriel smiled with appreciation as he prepares to leap at Euclid. "I have overstayed and my time is limited" Euclid muttered as the device suddenly began to suck out Lin's divinity in a frenzy causing the once beautiful woman to become a shrivelling old woman "You bastard" Lin muttered before she collapsed, dead.

The gods and goddesses shivered from this sight but Pangu, Wang Long ad Hei Xiangu stood in front of the people ready to face Euclid. But Euclid smiled towards Masaru "I look forward to meeting you again boy! See if you can stop me" He muttered before he disappeared the moment a magic circle materialized beneath his feet dodging the combined attacks of the three gods and Uriel. "Damn it!" Pangu slammed his fist on the ground.

The atmosphere was tense, Masaru was sitting on the ground waiting for Avalon to heal his injuries. Uriel wanted to help Masaru but he remembered that Masaru was a Devil, "Aiya, if only you were an angel I could have healed you faster" Uriel muttered with a face filled with pity, Masaru snorted with a smile "How am I suppose to enjoy the love my women give me then?" Uriel sighed but Wang Long laughed loudly turning the atmosphere much relaxed.

"Masaru, who was that man?" Wang Long asked grabbing everyone's attention, although Masaru stood up for them they still had their suspicions. Masaru began to explain how he infiltrated Khaos Brigade to investigate this group of terrorist, he kept all the information that was sensitive to his and his family's safety to himself while explaining the rest. "I had a hunch that Euclid Lucifige was the man in charge of the magician rebels, I just did not want to believe it as the man was reported dead... Him being alive would cause chaos in the Underworld"

"So for the sake of the underworld, I am willing to owe you a favour if you all will keep the fact Euclid is alive to yourselves for a few months" Masaru spoke with them all, Wang Long did not answer immediately but began to talk with the surrounding gods and goddesses. After a while, Wang Long came carrying the turtle shell of Genbu, "Before I ask my favour I would like to see if you can absorb this into your sacred gear"

Masaru nodded as he summons in sacred gear in the form of an azure coloured gauntlet, the moment he touched the shell it shined before it was absorbed into the sacred gear. [Shit! Boy! What the hell have you done now!?] Drago spoke out anxiously as he watched the shell that came out of nowhere bolted into Avalon as well, "What happened?" Masaru asked to which Drago answered [It entered Avalon where Akiva is in!]

Masaru was surprised but then he understood, the soul that was in the shell was a fragment of the turtle but Genbu was both an Eel and a Turtle together. So it made sense that it would go for the Avalon where Akiva was at. "It appears you will have someone who will mutate like you did" Masaru spoke with a smirk to which Drago thought for a moment before he smiled, [I can tease her about it] Drago giggled "Old Pervert, don't you dare molest my familiar!" Masaru muttered with a serious expression [Screw you! I am only going to tease her, not sexually harass her!]

Being a God Wang Long could hear the conversation of the two, he broke out in another roar of laughter as he never met unique partners like this as he clasps his hand on Masaru's shoulder. "Your favour you owe us, is to take the seat as the Centre. Without the existence of Kouryuu who maintains the balance of the four direction, we will be in trouble. Having you take the seat officially would give us time"

"What about Suzaku who died?" Masaru asked as he only had Byakko, Seiryuu and Genbu within him along with Kouryuu, he did not have Suzaku. Wang Long had a complicated face as he thought for a moment "We will have to search for mythology that also has a phoenix who would be willing to become Suzaku... But you becoming Kouryuu in the name would help us maintain the system for a long enough time for you to find a suitable candidate for Suzaku"

Masaru sighed as he felt like he was given three things to do instead of one, but he was benefitting from it as well. "Very well, I will accept it on the condition that Chinese Mythology would join the Peace Alliance. For the sake of our prosperity and to get revenge on those who trampled on China's dignity, we must unite and kick their asses!"

Reincarnated with broken memories of his previous life, Masaru who is the son of Diehauser Belial was kidnapped the night his mother (Human) was killed by a Khaos Brigade assassin. 

Taken to a devil's house that was a branch family of the Naberius Family, experimented on using various genetic solutions in their research for a super devil came successfully the night they decided to experiment on the white neko.

Resigned to his fate to become a puppet or to become a Rebel against those who seek to control him, may the god of war bless his path

Don't own the picture in my cover either, no idea where it came from but got it from Google!!!

The gates of heaven were heavily packed with people. Thousands after thousands flowed into the celestial palace. Gods, goddesses, fairies, beasts, mystical creatures that roamed the sky rushed back and forth, feeling anxious.

At the same time, a loud yelling could be heard. "YUAN JI!!!!"

That screeching made most of people gathered there reflexively wiped beads of sweat on their foreheads. It wasn't the first time that sort of thing happened. Heck, it was nearly a daily thing already. 

"Here~~" laughed the troublemaker as he leaped once more from the roof. 

"Come here at once!" Shouted the young man chasing behind him, one arm extended in a failed attempt to catch the hem of other's robes. 

Yuan Ji stopped on his track for a while, holding his chin thoughtfully while mock-observed the young man. "No can do. You'll kill me once you laid hands on me." 

"You little bast—" 

He was cut off by a sword held near his neck. The young man stopped at once, turning his head to look at the sword owner.

"Don't worry. Jianshu is still in its scabbard." The owner assured, keeping a calm, composed, yet somewhat indifferent face. He then proceeded to cup his hands in a greeting manner to the young man.

"That's not the problem!" seethed the young man, who at once had great fears because he was unrespectful towards a deity few ranks higher than him, although it was caused by Yuan Ji's pranks. He turned his glare to the grinning water deity. "Please don't get involved with us, Young Master." He gritted his teeth.

"Hu Nan~! Did you come here to give me something?" Yuan Ji snickered at the young man, whose face paled at the way Yuan Ji called the sword owner. 

It must be known that Young Master Hu—Nan Bai Qi Shen was one of the high ranking martial official of Golden Tower. And Dong Shi Shui Shen was just a junior head official in Water Palace. Referring a deity at least two ranks higher than one by their names instead of the titles was incomparably rude. The man's eyes nearly popped out from the water deity's recklessness. Yuan Ji sure had some nerve, to call the Third Young Master by his name—acting all intimate.

"Yuan Ji, apologize to this young master." Hu Nan strapped the sword back into his belt. "And don't cause another trouble."

"Okay..." he took a scroll out of his sleeve and handed it to the small god, then bowing a little. "This Shui Shen deeply apologize for the troubles Shui Shen had caused. Please forgive this Shui Shen, Official Scribe of Temple of Knowledge." 

The small scribe god accepted the scroll and returned to the temple at once, not intending to fuss over the small trouble. 

"Which deity did you annoy again?" Hu Nan sat on the edge of the roof, sincerely asked his childhood friend.

"Junior Official Scribe of Xi Lan's Temple. He numbered the seventh in seniority of his rank." 

"What did you do to him?"

"I took a scroll, the one that I handed over just now. It consisted all of new gods' names and their titles, ranks, and powers. I've examined it for a while."

"How many new gods this time?" 

"Fifty three."

"That's a lot." 

Yet compared to previous times, the number was still insignificant. In the warring period, over two hundred gods could be easily recruited. Although on the other hand, at least half the number died once they were forgotten. 

"How did it go? Did you manage to take care of the Western Gate?" Yuan Ji smiled a little. 

Hu Nan nodded in confirmation. He continued, "Three Ghosts and Demons were captured, the Heavens have no losses this time. Four martial official got severely wounded." 

Yuan Ji mouthed an 'Ohh', before tilting his head to one side. "You're a General now, aren't you?" 

"First rank General."

"Still, congratulations. You actually are able to achieve three ranks in the time span of half century, I'm impressed." 

"You, too. Try to lessen your pranks. You might have been an Inner Circle Official or a Head Official by now."

"Too bad, I'm stuck at this Junior Head Official forever." Yuan Ji laughed a little, his hand fished out a turquoise ribbon. He tied up his long jet-black hair. "I don't intend to raise into higher ranks."

Hu Nan shifted a little, his gaze fixed on the small jade ornament on the water deity's robes. "You still keep it?" 

Yuan Ji took off the ornament and held it up, he said, "It's not as if I could just throw away this, right? After all, it was that person's last memento."

The Jade Pearl of the Eastern Sea—the starting point of his immortality. The small object which had brought so many pain and joy in his life.

BL novel! Everything in this novel is fiction!

『You saved me once, I'll repay your kindness...』

Gods exist, so are Ghosts and Demons.


Both the Water Deity and the young 'ghost's life changed after the fall. 

Yuan Ji didn't expect that he'd possess a teenager's body when he was casted out from the heaven for the nth time. Yang YueChen didn't expect a day where he would be having a friend by his side. 

Now the tricky, sharp-witted Deity had to work together with the naive boy to regain his lost memories and ascend to the heaven. 

Who knows, something else also bloomed in their short shared life....
