Above the meeting table, four blue crystals containers were rotating at various speeds, with slight differences in size, brightness or even shape. They each contained the soul of a different sentient race, with their memories intact. Each were experts in one field that related to the characteristics that suited the races for this world.
One by one, the souls floated down, onto the nearby chairs, they sat in silence as if waiting for something.
With a nod of understanding, Emilia snapped her fingers, destroying the containers for the souls, letting them free. The souls, with a lingering gaze, made their way over to Ensen, hovering around him respectfully.
----------------------------------------
[POV: Emilia]
What's happening? Why are they going to him?
'Wait, is it his domain? but I didn't grant him one yet'
Domains, each god or goddess are in charge of a creation or idea in the universe, some famous ones are the goddess of life and the god of death, each domain was built by the raw emotion in each soul, but without guidance, it is nearly impossible to gain one.
'I wonder what his domain is... I'll check it after I grant one to the others, It'll be more fun that way.'
*CLAP*
With a clap of her hands, the souls began vibrating, once the souls were removed from the despair that encased them, they began drifting away from Ensen to various parts of the meeting room. Once they all began drifting came the next part.
Closing her eyes, Emilia spent the next 20 minutes of so reconstructing their bodies, as well as modifying them to suit the needs of a god, adding various functions and regulators in case something happens. Once that was done she carried over the souls one at a time to their rightful bodies. The first soul shivered in delight as it was being carried over.
The soul quickly flew into the body.
The body itself woke up a few seconds later.
With an excited jump, the body rose to its feet and said with a smile
"Thank you."
She smiled, with her blond hair and blue eyes, and her pointed ears taking the center stage.
The girl, looked in her 20's, mainly because Emilia made sure to reverse their ages, she didn't want to make a universe worshiping old people after all.

'I'm going to stay young forever!'
"What was your name again? I need to make sure there are no memory problems." I said calmly.
"I'm Rikka. Nice to meet you goddess."
I flashed her a smile then moved on calmly.
'I should probably make Ensen a new body next, Almost forget.'
She flashed mischevious smile
'Shall we make this a little fun?'
This time, due to practice she finished modifying his body in less than 5 minutes.
She then reached her and into the chest of his old body, and tugged the soul out.
----------------------------------------
[POV: Ensen]
With tired eyes, I finally awoke. To try to stay awake I tried to rub my eyes.
'Wait... where are my arms.'
Looking around I only saw that human trafficker and a beautiful looking elf.
I tried to yell at the demon again, but couldn't make out a sound.
'Why is there another me over there? I'm scared.'
After struggling to be set free, he finally came to terms with it and sat calmly in her hands. He found himself getting closer to the other him, then finally getting pushed into his chest.
'Is she trying to suffocate them? Wait... it went through?'
After passing through his chest the hand left him, leaving him to float inside his chest. After about half a minute he suddenly felt his arms again.
On instinct, I jumped to my feet and slapped the top of the demons head.
After pulling back his hand, he glanced around and saw the demon on her knees trying to hold back her tears, and the Elvin beauty looking shocked and unsure what to do.
"G-get back demon!" She yelled at me.
'Heh, me? why is she pointing at me?'
"You mean her, right?" I pointed at the demon.
"She took me here against my will, and then took my body away and gave me a new one, if that isn't evil then what is?" I said sternly.
----------------------------------------
[POV: Rikka]
'What is going on?!'
'My soul was taken by a goddess, then I was given a body. At first, I was feeling grateful, but it turns out she's a human trafficker? I should run away.'
I quickly look around, but all I see is darkness.
'What should I do? Should I just try to run for it? I might not get far, but no way am I serving a demon.'
As I begin hatching my escape plan the demon yells at the boy.
"What are you doing? and I told you I'm not a demon. I'm a goddess!" She yelled loudly.
Ehh? the boy looks confused. I give up, I'm not even going to try to understand.
"O-oh yeah, I think I remember you saying that now. But, I didn't think heaven would have slaves, just doesn't suit their image." He replied calmly.
"N-No! your not a slave, and they don't have them... mostly. I took you to help me create a universe." She replied nervously.
"You just sound lazy. Just do it yourself!" He yelled, giving her no face.
"B-but how am I going to manage a universe and watch anime?" she said with a serious face as if the world would end without it.
"Fine, I give up... for now. What's up with this body though? It's completely different." He said while inspecting his body.
He had raven-black hair and Amber eyes that seemed filled with wisdom. His skin as smooth as a high-class noble, with a black silk shirt and pants, with gold trim around the edges.
"Oh, that. I thought I would make you look better. I mean you weren't exactly great looking before." She said proudly.
"Fine, I don't even care anymore. What are we doing now?" He asked unwillingly.
"We are putting the souls into their bodies, and then I'm granting everyone domains." She paused, before looking into the man's eyes "Well, most people anyways."
