Today's Chapter:)
~Chapter 3~
The old man and I enter the room where I find six figures sitting down. I abruptly stop and curiously look towards them, four of the figures are women and the other two are men. The room is big and can fit over thirty people. At the middle is a long brown table with eight black chairs surrounding it in which six out of eight of them are occupied.
I suddenly feel someone tapping me on my shoulder interrupting my thoughts. I turn my head and see the old man face full of smiles "You might want to know who they are, don't you?"
Well of course, to many strange things constantly happening...sigh about time this is over I will be a vegetable. (Note: Human vegetable)
I immediately nod "Yes very much"
Suddenly I can see a glint of light pass through his eyes as he said " They are just like me and you. The man with short white hair and purple eyes is Gideon, the god of darkness, and the young man next to him with short black hair and red eyes is a demon and his successor." he pointed towards the man, obvious that he was being extremely rude.
He continue "The woman with the long blond hair, emerald green eyes, and pointy ears is the goddess of nature, Thela. And the young lady sitting next to her with the same features she has is also an elf and her successor. As for the other woman with ruby red hair and golden eyes is the goddess of love, Marina. And the young lady next to her with long black hair and abyss black eyes is her successor."
I knitted my eyebrows together as I take in all the information , to be truthful all the women in the room is extremely beautiful especially the goddess of love.....wait,wait I shouldn't be thinking of anything perverted.
"Come on let's say hello" the old man said.
The old man and I walk over to the long brown table catching the attention of the six successors and gods/goddesses. Sitting down, I sat across from the successor of the god of darkness. His face turn ugly "Humph! Despicable human dare to sit in front of me!" clearly arrogance was in his voice. I ignored him and silently observe my surrounding.
I can feel two burning gazes piercing through me with curiously and disdain. I already knew who the people who gazing at me which was the the successor of goddess of nature and love. I turn my head towards them, suddenly I can see the successor of the goddess of love face flush red while the elven stared at me with extremely cold eyes....sigh she must really hate humans..no wait she doesn't hate humans but males in generally. If she really hated humans then why is she sitting so comfortably next to her.
Seconds pass turning into minutes then hours. Silence no one spoke a word, nothing. I turn my head towards the old man and ask "Why are we here? Is this suppose to be the "special" meeting you where talking about?" He turn to me "Be patient, all those who are patient great things or luck comes to them" he suddenly said trying to lecture me with his deep profound words.
At this moment a pillar of light shine down at the end of the table and appearing is a long white bearded man sitting down in a huge golden chair.. no I shouldn't call it a chair but a golden throne with diamonds imprinted in to it.
I can see the gods and goddesses bow down their heads and so I followed their example as long with the rest of the successors. "Rise, my children" a calm soothing voice resounded through out the room, lifting my head I see the man who look similar to the marble statue from the entrance of the mission. My eyes sparkled with stars. It's him! It's really him! The god of creation, Milithiru!
A smile appeared on Milithiru face "Haha! Sorry my children for making you wait long...mmm.. it seem that you already gathered your successors. Well very good, first off introduce their names and origins...even though I already know it"
The first one to stand up is Gideon, he slightly bow then he pointed towards the young lad " This is Dustin, he is a demon from the planet Starcus. He is 122 years old." After introducing his successor he sat down.
Next one to stand up is Thela following the same procedure as Gideon "This is Sylvia, she is a elf from the planet Naziria. She is 121 years old."
This narrative has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road. If you see it on Amazon, please report it.
Next is Marina following the same procedure " This is Selena, she is a human from the planet Earth. She is 21 years old."
Finally it the old man turn to introduce me "Umm.. this is A-Arthur, he is a human from the planet R-Rulivia. He is 22 years old" My mouth gape open watching him stutter. Smooth sailing old man! Sighhh.. I shake my head in embarrassment. A distain snicker can be heard coming from Dustin mouth.
Milithiru throughout the whole process showed only a slight smile. Opening his mouth, he said " Very good! So you guys should know the reason you are here, right?" saying this his gazes fall on the three of us, a faint gulp sound can be heard as I swallow my saliva.
He continued "If not then I should tell you, the reason you are here is for a competition, a competition in which will decide on which one of you will inherit my powers and become the third generation God of creation or goddess of creation, who knows. Well for this competition I will send each of you to the same planet or world but in different location and will watch over each of you until I see that its enough, understand?"
Everyone of us furrow our brows except Dustin who eyes was glistening, we all slightly nod our heads.
A smile appeared on Milithiru face " Well OK then until I choose a world where I see fit , you can stay here and drink some wine and feel free to look around" flipping his hand bottles of wine and wine glasses appeared on the table and then he vanished.
I get up from my seat to search around the mansion but suddenly a hand grasp my arm and pull me into my seat, turning my head I see the old man staring at me with a huge smile. Shivers ran down my spine. Damn! Just don't smile!
"Where are you going?" he ask.
I try to smile "I'm going to look around the mansion...is that alright."
He nod "Yes that is alright but first we all going to drink this wine our lord gave us."
"Sorry, I don't drink" I replied.
"It doesn't matter, it will be rude to our lord" he said.
Damn! So persistent!
...
Crash!
At the moment I am walking in the long hall way and just knock over a glass vase.
Urrrg-
I cover my mouth preventing myself to vomit. Damn! The old man made me drink ten rounds of wine. It was actually a great taste but Urrgg- I stop my self again.
Walking no I should say wobbling down the hallway, I turn the opposite direction from which we came. This hallway is similar to all the others. After a minute or so I come across a normal size door. I open the door and enter it where I find what seem to be a mini library. Glancing around I see a small little couch. Sighh just what I need, I wobble over to the couch and slouch down into it as I slowly close my eyes.
Kacha!
The door suddenly open making me open my eyes. My vision was slightly fuzzy, walking in is a girl with long blond-haired and emerald girl eyes who look very familiar.
"Gena?" I murmured. My heart begin to pound violently as if I was having a heart attack.
Gena was a beautiful servant for one of my old master. At that time my master was a young pure lady which I was willing to work for. The the first day I work there I met a seventeen year old girl who I had eventually fall in loved with. We both loved each other very much and I was a very happy young man until one day the king of the empire demanded that she was to be his concubine. In that instant my love life shattered into pieces, that very next day I personally saw her committing suicide after saying three words to me.
"I love you" she said, those words still linger in my heart after she said this she stabbed herself in the heart leaving me with only despair.
I stand up from the couch and wobble over to Gena and softly kiss her on the lips. I can feel her pushing me back but slowly stop resting after in which she start to kiss me back , suddenly my mind goes totally blank.
