As I was sitting around on a pile of rocks, a beautiful girl suddenly appeared in front of me!
She had brilliant blue eyes and a heart shaped face that was framed by wavy golden hair and her long lithe body was draped in a white dress that nicely offset her sun-kissed skin.
She narrowed her eyes at me and said, "You there, tell me what happened to this world."
I was actually startled for a moment, because at the time, I hadn't bothered to take a visibly form, and was instead merely a swirl of energy that most people were unable to sense.
A thread of hope rose in my soul, this girl, she was strong!
Apparently I had taken to long to answer her, as the girl repeated her question.
I obligingly searched my memory to answer her and a the same time took a visible, humanoid form.
"Ah yes! This is the world I tried drinking alcohol and discovered I'm a depressed drunk. By the time I sobered up, my darkened aura had spread through the whole world and caused every living thing to become self destructive. Unfortunately, that also included some rather powerful dragons, who literally bathed the world in fire as a final farewell."
I thumped my head with my fist, closed one eye, and stuck my tongue out to one side in a classic pose.
"Whoopsie, Tehee~~"
The girl’s mouth fell open in amazement, "You mean your getting drunk was the sole reason the path that was set for the world completely derailed?"
I wasn't completely sure what this "path" she was talking about it was, but I happily nodded. Just the fact that I didn't know what she meant made me extremely excited.
The girls face broke into a joyful grin, "I didn't even see it coming! That’s never happened before! Ah! Except, were you responsible for the destruction of these planets too? "
She listed off a number of other planets I had accidentally destroyed. (All of them were pretty early on in my exploration, while I was getting a handle on how much power I could use)
Hmmm, I was sensing a comrade spirit in boredom. I nodded again to confirm her question.
She suddenly burst into tears and hugged me, "I finalllllyyyyy foundddd youuuuu!!!! "
About five hours later, she finally stopped crying and introduced herself as Fate. She oversaw the threads of fate for each world, and could even nudge one way or another depending on what she wanted as the end result to be.
The tale has been taken without authorization; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.
The unfortunate effect of this was that she always knew what was going to happen, and her job soon became very boring.
It was as I predicted, she was a comrade in boredom~~
The only exceptions were the worlds I had visited. At those times, the future of the worlds I didn’t destroy simply blurred from her sight while the ones I demolished completely vanished.
While she was explaining this I sneakily determined she possessed 1/5th the amount of my power, far more than any other being I had encountered.
At one point in our conversation, I even had to bow down in self-defeat as I learned she and the other forces of the universe (all with a similar level of power) had been born half a millennium after Creation, meaning they had been around for quite a long time, and I hadn't even noticed them!
In my defense, at least they hadn't found me either. That would have really broken my pride...
Finally Fate explained what she wanted from me, a contract to free both of us from our boredom!
The conditions were:
1: I would enter into a cycle of reincarnation, with Fate deciding which world I reincarnated into, though I got to pick who and what I was reincarnated as.
2: Fate and the other forces of power would help me completely seal my powers away so each time I was reincarnated, I got to experience the hard work of gaining power. Unfortunately, they didn't have enough power to seal my memories as well.
3: I would be able to do whatever I wanted, but I had to promise not to ever purposely destroy a world if I ever gained enough power to do so.
4: I would enter into a blood bond with Fate, so her sight would no longer be blurred, but she would still be unable to predict what would happen due to my action.
Basically, I would be Fate's entertainment, while she would in turn provide me with an escape from boredom.
I instantly agreed with only one condition, one trial run, and if it didn't interest me, the deal was off.
She readily agreed and we made all the arrangements.
The moment the trial began, I was hooked. The sense of accomplishment I felt with gaining power with my own hands was more powerful than any drug man or god could create.
Since then, I've been through countless reincarnations and lived happily, whether it be with hands, paws, feather, or scales.
This reincarnation though, is one of my favorites.
