Prologue:
???:“I want to restart my life and death cycle !” those were the words which made the 7 almighty being in front of me to start panicking. Well I guess they were right to fear my words, I was probably the most powerful being in the room, even if I was much younger than any one of them, my soul mutated over the years and gained strength unimaginable to anyone.
???:“You can't!” a feminine voice resounded in the void like chamber.
???: “Aleria, calm down. Mercury, why do you want that? You have only been a God for a little over 1 million years. Surely you know that it's a really small amount of time.”
Mercury:”Well for you, Atheon, it may not seem like much, seeing as the 7 of you have been Gods since the start of time. But for me who started as a mortal, those 1 million year were incredibly and utterly boring...”
Aleria: “You know, we are not here to save you from your boredom!” said the angry Goddess while glaring at me.
Aleria: “Besides, your soul has become so powerful that even with our combined strength, we can barely seal your power. We can't do anything to your memories. Are you telling me to send you into a new world with all your memories intact?”
That made me think a little. It was true that I was stronger than any one of them, but I didn't think I became so ridiculously strong! Still, reincarnating with my memories, that is something I have not done till now, it's bond to be extremely fun!
Mercury: “Why not? It's not like you can deny me. You yourselves have made the rules.
Herald: “Very well! Atheon, I agree with him. Our rules do not have to be broken, we just need to put some conditions onto his reincarnation.” said with and evil grin my so called best friend. He was the God of Death and Destruction, and was actually the first God I met when I was still a mortal soul, going through the process of becoming a God. We quickly became friends. He was interested in the mortal that reached the same level of soul strength he himself possessed, the only one to ever reach even close to the souls of Gods. I, on the other had, was interested in the Gods as a whole. From my world, in which I was only a mortal, there was the common belief of only one God, which created the universe. Well I quickly learned more and more trough our friendship. He was still wondering in which world to place my strong soul when I asked him if I can become a God. He was astounded for a second. A mortal wanting to become a God! Ha! Then he figured that if I wanted to try, he will let me stay in my soul form until I gain enough power to create a body. Now that I think about it, he probably did that out of enjoyment, and expecting me to give up when I get bored, knowing that to create a body it usually took a god, with already developed powers a couple of centuries. For me, who was just a soul of a mortal, a very strong soul, but still, just a soul; there was no way I will achieve that, even if I had millions of years. Of course, I surprised him again when I reached Godhood in just 300 year. He was so surprised that he stopped talking for a year. Remembering that really makes me laugh! Still in the mest million years, I gained so much power that not even Atheon, the leader of the pantheon could not stand to me, so I became the eight God in the group. All in all I was just an outsider with too much power to be opposed.
Mercury: “And what are those conditions, my dear friend?” I said with a hint of sarcasm, knowing that my buddy was pretty mischievous.
Herald: “Well...Nothing to major. Since we can't take your memories, you will have to promise to do certain things. And you will reincarnate in a world of our choosing.”
This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.
Saying that with and innocent looking face was all I needed to realize his true intentions….He too was bored!
Atheon: “Ok, we will agree to allowing your return to being a mortal. Herald, let's hear your condition!”
Herald started a really creepy laugh after hearing Atheon. It seems I may have some problems.
Herald: “Hehehe..! Don't look at me like that. It won't be that bad, besides, it will be interesting. Don't you want that?”
Mercury: “Haah…! Ok tell me the world you choose and your conditions. I expect you were thinking this over for some time, right?” knowing he will do something like this since I told him earlier that I would like to relive a mortal life. Well, like they say, you reap what you saw.
Herald: “Perfect! Aleria, do you still have that world? The one that was really messed up?”
Aleria: “Eh? What?” said a confused Goddess, that seemed to be the cutest creature in the world….well that is, if you don't stay with her for more than a day. Even if she was more beautiful than any mortal woman I have ever seen, her twisted personality was a real downer. Well I suppose when you live as long as them, you tend to get one or two screws loose.
Aleria: “Ahhh! Yes! That is the perfect place for this bastard!” said the goddess while glaring at me!
I honestly don't know what I did to make her that angry. I'm sure that watching her bathe and peeking at her was not it, right? It's not like I could resist...she is the goddess of beauty after all, even with a twisted personality she is still a first class beauty!
Atheon: “Well than, that decides the world! As for the conditions, lets see...How about this!”
Atheon: “You are to concur this world and improve the lifestyle of it's people by 1 rank!”
Mercury: “Wait, wait! What world are you talking about? From what I know Aleria only has rank 7 and rank 8 worlds. Raising a rank in one of those worlds will take me thousands of years.”
Herald: “Don't worry buddy! You may not know this because you are too young, but when we were bored *cough*...inspired, about 7 million years ago, gathered our powers together and created a world. It was supposed to be our masterpiece, but it didn't go so well. Hahaha! Now that I think about it, letting a world grow for 5 million years was really crazy.”
Aleria: “The world is really masive and it is a rank 10 planet, however, since it was so massive and there were so many danger in it the best population could develop at was about a rank 3 civilization.”
Mercury: “Wait, what do you mean rank 10 planet and rank 3 civilization? Isn't the rank supposed to be just for the civilization? And aren't they supposed to stop at 9?”
Atheon: “I sometimes forget how young you are, with all that power. It's true that we never say anything about a planet's rank. Almost all planets with life on them are at rank 4 and below, witch have a similar civilization rank. There are a few at rank 5 planets, but all of those are rank 9 civilization, so we just categorize them by civilization. The only planet that is rank 10 is this one. The sentient beings on this planet have started calling it Gaia. I know, not original, but that doesn't matter.”
Atheon: “Anyway, since there is such a large gap in the planet and civilization rank, the only way to reaise the civilization rank is by taming the planet, but with their technology, that's impossible.”
Herald: “That's were you come in. Since you will have all your memories you can show them how to survive in that environment. What do you say? And before you ask, no we will not give you any more information about this planet!” said the God , with and evil grin. I'm sure there is a lot more to this planet than they are telling me, but for now….It's interesting!
Mercury: “Ok! I accept! So? How are we doing this?”
<7 Gods>: “Like this!”
