When I opened my eyes, I was in a white place.
"What the hell?! Am I dead? God damn it, it hasn't even been a single week since I reincarnated. My main character status! My cheat power! R-Ruined by a fatass demon that only thinks with its goddamn stomach!"
"Woah there, you're not dead. I merely called you here since you fainted and you weren't going to wake up for a while!" From behind me, I heard a familiar voice.
"Goddess Lucifer! So I'm not dead?"
"Haha, no! That little girl, ummmm ahhh right, Lyka decided to give a potion that quickly recovered your HP. You're merely asleep and since I saw the chance, I called you here,"
"Call me here? Why?"
"I wanted to congratulate you for being fully adapted to the world of Napreshan. I can already see that you have marked yourself in Napreshan. You have already defeated Belphegor one of the Demon God's servants. I'm quite surprised that you made it so far even with my help. Other Earthians that I have sent to other worlds similar to Napreshan are all already dead,"
"Wait there are worlds other than Napreshan?!"
"Of course, if there is Earth and Napreshan together in the same dimension, then there are various other worlds here similar to that of both Earth and Napreshan. However, like I said I am quite happy that you adapted,"
"Thank you Goddess, but I really don't think that you called me just for this. What is the real purpose of calling me here,"
"No, I really did only want to congratulate you because this will be the final time we meet while you're alive. The next time you will see me is when you are dead and I will either send you to another world if you felt unsatisfied here or if you were satisfied be ready to go into the Otherworld,"
"Oh, I see," While I was a bit suspicious since the reason kind of felt like it was made on the spot, I let it go and went along with it.
"Don't be so sad Jeffrey. If you are in the Church that worships me, I might be able to talk with you via telepathy, but in terms of meeting face to face, I'm afraid it won't happen till you are dead. Let me tell you this before I have to send you off. Napreshan is a much bigger place than Earth. However, it's far less advanced in terms of technology making everything including law be far behind. So there will be many things that you won't like such as slavery. There will be a lot of people that you will hate. There will also be people that you will do anything to protect. However, despite all this, just remember that I sent you there to have a fulfilling life where you can do anything you wish so don't focus everything on revenge or things like that. I won't be very happy if I see you here because of that," The Goddess said with a smile.
I still felt like she was hiding some information, but hearing that heartfelt message touched me and I did not ask any further.
"Now, time is up and I have to send you back to Napreshan. Good luck there boy and remember to live a life that you won't regret when you come here next time!"
Like before, before I knew it, I was getting sucked in by a black hole and all went dark once again.
When I opened my eyes, I realized that it seemed to be around sunset. I also realized that I was on Lyka's lap and saw that she was sleeping as well. Not trying to disturb her sleep, I slowly lifted my head up, but I was distracted by Belphegor lying near us and saw that its body was still there, but its tattoo was missing.

"If you're wondering why the stomach is cut out, this is the evidence we show to the guild that we defeated Belphegor," Lyka said.
I jumped in surprise. I immediately sat up and started to actually blush a little.
"Did I wake you up?" I asked quietly.
"Kind of I guess," Lyka said with a soft voice.
I realized that my moment with Lyka was like in those action and romance animes where the main character and heroine killed the final boss and are now about to make out or something like that, but the system hates me and the a notification that I feel so familiar with started to ring in my head again.

After about a minute of hearing annoying level up sounds, I decided to take a look at the new quest the system mentioned.
Special Event Quest: Demon God Invasion (1)
The Demon God has now taken the image of the Demon King and is planning on first taking over the 4 kingdoms then reaching out to the rest of the world. You must prevent it and defeat the Demon God. As the Demon God is on Napreshan, the world's natural force has prevented him from being able to use divine powers weakening him. However, you must defeat all 7 generals to get to him.

Defeat Demon of Gluttony 1/1
Demon of Pride 0/1

Demon of Envy 0/1
Demon of Lust 0/1
Demon of Sloth 0/1
Demon of Greed 0/1
Quest Reward: 20,000,000 EXP and unlocking Demon God Invasion (2)
No wonder the Goddess felt like she had to hide something. It was this after all!
'But are you serious?! Even Belphegor was a pain in the goddamn ass and you want me to defeat all 7 of these motherfuckers with the Demon God later as well?!' I thought before I decided to cheer myself up with the fact that I can get 20,000,000 EXP if I complete it and move on to look at my stats and new skills.
"Jeffrey are you ok?" Lyka asked me seeing that I had an ugly expression.
"Yeah, I'm ok. It's just that right now for some reason I can't really move my legs that much and we have to rest a little before going back to kill the rest of the wolves.," I lied with a smile.
When I looked at my stats, I wasn't all that surprised.

"20 levels, that's about expected I guess. If I didn't level up around this much, it'd be a pretty big problem," I muttered.
I next took a look at my Magic Samurai skillset.
Magic Samurai: You are not merely a swordsman anymore. You are now a magic samurai that is able to cut down enemies by using both your sword and magic.

The water element creates a mini typhoon near it and can suck enemies in and when the typhoon is gone, all enemies are pushed out. The Earth element creates a mini earthquake around it. The lightning element creates a lightning tornado. The light element creates a holy tornado that can severely damage all evil creates including corrupt humans.

"These skills are really nice!" I said as I was extremely satisfied with what I got. After I was done checking out these two, I quickly stood up.
"Let's go and kill some more wolves," I said to Lyka with a smile while extending my hands towards her.
"Mmm," Lyka agreed and took my hand. I pulled her up and we started to go further into the prairie.
