1940 year, somewhere in the Western frontline
"When do you think they will come?" spoke a trembling voice from the side.
"Do I look like a fortune-teller?" said the man jokingly and closed his eyes. "Sigh..... but if I answer truthfully, they will probably come soon".
"Damn those Nazi, if not for them I would probably be spending time in my bed now" said the man angrily.
"Well this world is unpredictable" spoke the man with a lazy expression.
-Flashback a few hours ago-
Those two were the soldiers of the Denmark army, Lucas and Michael.
Before he joined the army Michael was a funny and rather friendly guy, but then he saw the cruelty of war Michael became very pitful and quiet.
Lucas tho, still thought it was kinda fun looking at him fall into despair.
Lucas, our protagonist, grew up in an orphanage. He lost his parents very early, but it's not like he cares.
Lucas's appearance was average, he had deep black eyes, a normal face, and was about 6.1 feet. The only exception was that his hair was completely white(similar to Kaneki Ken from Tokyo ghoul). Because of that he often got bullied in the orphanage, at first he was very sad but later on, he got used to it.
Lucas is 19 years old now and he still didn't make any friends. In his opinion, all that friendship was just a waste of time.
Today was the day we had to go to the frontlines. I was under the command of General James, our goal was to sneak into the enemy base and try to kill important people such as generals or strategists. Everybody knew that it was just a suicide mission, but it's not like they had a choice. Stay home and die later or die early, but as a hero.
I of course didn't care about all the honor, I was just simply excited.
In my opinion, this world was dull, there wasn't any magic or superpowers like in manga and comics I read in an orphanage. The only things that brought me excitement were battlefield and fights.
We were dressed in camouflage to blend with the ground and stealthily went towards the enemy base with general James in the center and me in the front. When we were close to the base everybody walked really slow to not make any unnecessary sounds, you could feel the nervousness in the air, but I, on the other hand, just felt my adrenaline rise.
As we were about to walk into the base there was a sound.
*TIK TIK TIK*
All of us turned to the center, only to see James with a few grenades in his hand as he said:
"HEIL HITLER"

*Boom*
I was sent back by a shockwave and hit a rock with my back
*sound of a bone-breaking*
'uhhh... even the General is a snitch'
'I am so tired of this war, this HATRED, THIS SCHEMES,'
'I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE'
'I am so weak....'
'Can't even take on a simple grenade'
'I am so pathetic'
I tried to get up, but couldn't do it by any means.
As I was struggling I saw something interesting with a side glance, I saw a pack of explosives that were meant to use for destroying the base. It could at least cover around 20 meters.
I secretly took them and stuffed into my clothes.
A smirk appeared on my face.
'I will take those bastards with me'
I was lying on the rock, waiting for soldiers to come and saw someone crawling toward me.
"oh Michael.. how is life?"
"F**k you man"
-end of a flashback-
-Present Time-
"do you think we will die?" asked Michael as tears appeared on his face.
"yes" I answered truthfully
Suddenly a shout could be heard not so far from them:
"Do you think there are survivors left " (mob1)
"Probably, check everyone until the boss comes " (mob2)
German soldiers started checking every person and I could see Michael on the side crying silently
'did he really expect to come back alive' I thought to myself.
"Hey, there is someone alive!"(mob2)
*Bam* * Bam*
This was the last day Michael has been on Earth.
'Farewell Michael'
"Oh his hair is unique" said (mob1) as he looked at me.
"It is a pity that he is dead, our boss likes white ones, he could have been slave"(mob2)
I didn't listen to their nonsense and concentrated on my environment.
That's the reason I became a soldier in this raid. I could minimalize my pulse to pretend to be dead and put away all the useless thoughts. But it's useless now, I can't even stand up so what's there to talk about.
"Hey what are you doing there?!" a shout could be heard from the front
"Boss!"(mob1)
"Boss!"(mob2)
"Oh is he still alive?" said Muller(Boss) as he walked lustfully toward me.
"No sir!"(mob2)
I could feel his gaze on me, but it's still not the time.
*tap*
'Closer'
*tap*
'Closer'
*tap*
'Closer'
*tap*
"NOW!" I shouted from the top of my lungs.
Nobody could even react as they heard the sound of an explosion.
*BOOM*
--------
That was the end of my life.
At the moment I am flying in a dark room.
I can't feel my body, I can't feel anything at all.
I don't know how much time has passed, maybe a week, maybe a year, maybe even more.
It's very boring, I will lose my mind if I spend any more time here.
"Mortal, turn around" I suddenly heard a voice from behind.
I freaked out and quickly turned around.
"Who the hell are you?!" I shouted as I saw a big ball of light.
"I am the creator of this universe, the being you call a god"
"You..are a god?"
"Yes, my kid, you collected a lot of positive karma, I will grant you 1 wish, choose carefully"
"I think you are mistaken, my lord, I have never done anything positive during my life" I said truthfully
"At the end of your life you killed someone with negative karma of -500, thus gaining some as positive, now choose or I will leave you here for eternity"
'1 wish, what do I choose, what should I get' I thought to myself.
And then I remembered my long forgotten wish.
To become the Strongest, dominate everyone, everywhere no matter where I go.
"I see so you want to become the strongest" spoke God
"W-w-hat... you can read my mind"
"HAHAHA" God starting laughing crazily.
"It has been a long time since I met such an interesting soul with a bizarre goal like that"
"Alright, I will grant you this wish, but there are conditions"
"Like?"
"First of all, you won't be able to leave this place and reincarnate"
"If I can get the strength I desire then it doesn't matter"
"HAHAH I like you even more now"
'Is he really a god' I thought to myself'
"The second condition is that you will have to train and get this strength yourself....and stop insulting me or I will send you to hell"
"Alright, alright"
"So do you accept?" he asked me seriously
"Yes" I said with certainty
As soon as I accepted, I felt dizziness and numbness all over my body and lost consciousness.
---------
I woke up and looked around myself.
I was in a room of about 200 square meters.
There were no doors or windows, just a bed.
"God is quite cheap, isn't he''
As I got up I heard a voice in my head.
