“You must be kidding me, where the hell am I”?

I was in a forest, deep within one, trees surrounded me as the beady gold eyes met mine.

Its large jaw still gnawing on my arm, completely tearing it off.

“Shit, gaia go backwards”.

The clock started to reverse as my arm started to reappear.

I took out my scythe from under my tongue, the black scythe glowed with a purple aura, the large pupil in the core of the scythe started to blink.

A malicious aura came out of the lion, its claws as big as my arm.

“Lady Gaia stop for me”.

The lion stopped in its tracks, just before it slashed me.

My scythe could barely do anything against its thick hide, a material such as steel couldn’t even compare to this, this was just like Poseidon all over again.

“Do I need to use brute force”?

My fist basically did nothing, its so goddamn tough for no reason.

I repeated punch it, even with my ability speeding up the punches, I could barely do anything.

28,29,30

Time had resumed

its paws almost reached me, there was a large scratch on my cheek, as it started to bleed.

The lion had suddenly disappeared.

“Seems like there was a time limit, anyways where the hell am I”?

This novel's true home is a different platform. Support the author by finding it there.

My phone didn’t have any signal either, all I could do was wander for the night.

Leaves crunched under my feet as I looked around the green forest, bushes blocked my way as small fruits gathered the trees, my only food source.

“Soon enough they’ll come look for me, right”?

3 days and no signs.

The water tasted like shit even either my filtration device and is probably going to kill me someday.

I don’t even have any sort of materials to survive on.

It was like the adventurer’s exam all over again but with less materials at my disposal.

“I feel like a caveman”.

“Is there someone here”?

It was a large man in front of the entrance of the cave, his eyes full of life and essence.

“Oh it’s you, Chronos”.

I wonder how these people keep recognizing me, I’m not even surprised anymore.

“Are you a god or something”?

He smiled at me, his face as bright as Elysium itself.

“I am half god, souls are like a wavelength, when combined together, they will be amplified, that is what had happened in my body, we used to be one human and one god but we have merged together”.

I never thought such an interesting phenomenon was even possible.

The only decent god I’ve met was Athena, well it’s not I’ve met a lot anyways, Vann and Hestia are genocidal maniacs and Chronos has something wrong with his head.

I mean technically a fusion is not that farfetched, Chronos and Cronus had fused together but this was only due to the myths.

“What’s your name, young man”?

“Neila, Neila Suzuki”.

He looked at me weird.

“My name’s Heracles, the god of strength and heroes!! if you don’t want that you can just me Alcides, anyways what are you doing here, it must’ve been a long journey from Japan”.

Heracles? This destroys my theory of Vann, I wonder which god is inhabiting his body.

“I’m lost, I was with attacked by someone and they teleported me here, do you have anyway I can get back to Shinjuku”?

He smiled at me once more.

“Of course! I’ll give you a way to contact them and for the meantime you can live with me”.

This seemed too good to be true, I’ll be wary of him.

“Where even am I, Alcides”?

“You’re in Burma”.

A country in Southeast Asia? How did she even manage to teleport me that far?

He lead me outside the forest, into a small village
