Beginnings

Alex mind was racing from one idea to another 'God?, How can I be a god? What kind of broken game, gives a player such an unfair advantage?...Calm down, just calm down the game has yet to explain what its purpose is or its end goal. I haven't been playing long enough to receive any instruction, let's take this situation calmly and analyze what position I'm currently in.'

As he opened his eyes he was greeted with a change of scenery, the room he was in was cozy with modest decoration and light frivolities. Yet it radiated a homeliness that Alex wasn’t accustomed to, it made him feel loved, though he had no idea where these feelings derived from. As he did a quick overview of the room, he quickly memorized every detail of the room.

His attention finally arrived at the lone figure, sitting next to a large fireplace. To say she was stunning was a complete understatement, her cute warm smile, and fiery red hair complemented her inviting atmosphere. She was dressed moderately, but instead of taking away from her appearance, it only served to increase it. It felt fitting as if any other look would have taken away from her essence.

As her gaze caught mine, she flashed the same wry smile oddly similar to the trademark smile Alex has monopolized.

"Guessing from the fact that you are instantly familiarizing yourself with our home, you truly must be my child, you will be a instant relief from boredom if you continue interesting me" the beautiful woman said while chuckling walking toward me.

Alex then began to glance at himself, and saw that his stature had been drastically decreased. To say that he was in fact an infant, would most likely be correct. Though this upset him he smoothly registered this, accepted it, and moved on in the span of a few seconds.

"kuchi kuchi coo, whose the world's strongest deity? You are, my little savior."

Normally Alex would have flew into a rage at being looked down on, but any retort died on his lips when he looked into this woman's eyes. They were filled with such....love.

"Nice to meet you sweetheart, I am known as Hestia goddess of the hearth, family, and domestic life, but you can call me Mother."

Once again Alex's mind was racing from idea to idea, trying to make sense of all the things that were happening.

"ku ku kuh"  Hestia chuckled " You have so many thoughts for someone so young, sleep answers will arrive in due time. Your only concern should be rest, my little savior."

Alex tried to resist but suddenly felt, a concrete fatigue that held no room for argument. He closed his eyes and drifted to sleep. He was immediately greeted with a light blue window.

Cassius had to rub his eyes to make sure he wasn't imagining the results, he'd played RPG's before and knew that no beginner should have starting stats like this. 'Well I already knew that this race was impressive, I didn't expect my character to be this broken though'

He decides to log out for a while and actually rest in the real world. When he woke up he immediately rushed to his capsule and started the game.

You have awakened

When I awakened Hestia, or should I refer to her as Mother, was standing over me.

"Good morning my little savior, it seems that sleep did more good than I thought it would"

As I looked down it seems that my body had grown over night. Instead of the infant body I had before, it looks like I have grown to the body of a toddler.

"Your coming of age, had come a little earlier than I had plan, but no matter I will tell you what needs to be told" Cassius Nodded as his Mother went on. "Ok I have sworn a vow to remain a virgin forever, so it's kind of an issue that you are alive right know. The society of the gods is unfulfilling to me, constant struggles for power and followers. Petty grudges maintained for millennia, I found them uninteresting and distanced myself preferring to tend to my hearth, and leave to politics of the gods to others. Yet I discovered as time went by I found something lacking, an emptiness that was lurking away in the shadows. I began to ask myself 'What is a home without family?'...So I used a part of my essence to create you my son. I brought you into the world unjustly and for that I beg for you forgiveness." She explained painfully.

Alex could see the pain hidden beneath the surface so he quickly reassured her that he was not angry. "I am not angry, you need not ask for forgiveness. I couldn't have asked for a better person to call my Mother."

Hestia looked up tears clouding her eyes, and wordlessly wrapped me in her arms. After regaining her composure mother stood and retrieved a golden globe from a silken bag.

"Now then, let's move on to the next order of  business" mother said flashing a wry smile

Gods gain their classes differently than mortals, while mortals can obtain the classes through various means. Gods have their classes weaved into their very being, these classes grow as they do. Now I want you to touch this golden globe and tell me what kind of God you aspire to be" Hestia explained

Cassius thought long before giving his answer. He didn't want to really want to be a god, but he did know what kind of person he hoped to be.

" I wish to be a steadfast stone, unperturbed in times of trouble, able to overcome any obstacle, cleanly finish any enemy, and meet all of my goals" He said strongly

Suddenly a sharp pain hit is his heart, it felt like a flame had found it way in his body and was working its way through his veins. When it finally receded he found his tattoos had found his way across his arms and towards his palms.

Then golden globe had melded into a long recurve bow, with silver and white intricate designs into its golden frame.

Class Change, Would you like to convert to a Hidden Class

"Yes"

Cassius was completely shocked, at no time did he expect such amazing skills, but before he could even celebrate the air suddenly thinned and it was becoming difficult to breathe. static could be seen jumping between furniture.

"What's happening?" Cassius croaked

His mother mouth was pressed into a thin line, and her eyebrows where arched. "Your Uncle is here"
