Prologue 2: Joshua Colm

Prologue 2: Joshua Colm

Born in a small village in Tunisia, Colm grew up as an abandoned child. Having no money, he learned the arts of pickpocketing and palming goods. As he grew older, his list of crimes grew to include even bank robbery and murder. The surprising thing was his disposition to always work alone. He was world famous as the phantom thief yet unknown at the same time.

His luck ran out in Switzerland. A bank robbery was averted and he had to make a quick getaway. For the first time in his thirty years of crime, he was exposed. On a plane headed towards Arabia, he infiltrated as one of the passengers. The man he impersonated was never seen again.

On the flight, looking out the window, he saw it. Then, he rubbed his eyes and looked at it again. It was a truck . A truck flew into the side of the plane and it crashed. Everyone was killed.

Colm opened his eyes. A man was seated across him.

"Rejoice! You have been called from another world to act as my godchild. This honor, this----" (Old man)

"Shut up old man. Why a flying truck?!!"(Colm)

"Whose an old man? I'm less than 70 billion years old!"(Old man)

"The universe I come from is less than 70 billion years old you fart! Why a flying truck?!!!"(Colm)

"Because, in web novels and light novels, usually those who reincarnate are hit by trucks so I---"(Old man)

"Those are not usually in planes when that happens!!!"(Colm)

"Whatever... Rejoice! You have been called from another world to act as my godchild---"

"From the start again? Meh... So what is this godchild."

"As a god, I'm almost invincible. So are my 6 brothers. So all seven of us got bored and decided to compete with the only other people that could compete with us: Each other. However if we fought, all life would be eradicated. Thus, we played harmless games and toured worlds. I remember that go match with Ignis which we played in your old world. I dropped a go stone by accident and the dinosaurs went extinct! Man was aquinus pissed with me---"(Obviously powerful old man)

"Oi narrator! Enough with the old man!!! Its god! and also, I'm the second youngest god! Do you wanna die? HUH?"

(Pissed off old man)

A loud cracking of knuckles ensues.

"OI OLD MAN! GET TO THE GODDAMN POINT! I'LL KILL YOU! WHO IS THIS NARRATOR YOU ARE TALKING TO HUH?"

(Colm)

"Sorry sorry, lost track there... Anyway, we decided to each sponsor and advise a human who we have an interest in. The human that can achieve the most, his god wins. So we created a world of swords and magic to act as the arena and let civilization take its course. After a billion years, we each chose our godchild. There was one I had my eyes on but that creativity dude Artibus took him. Said he gets first pick as the eldest god! I'm pissed, I even had dibs on him. Its not like there were any such rules for the game..."(Old fart)

"No rules whatsoever?"(Colm)

Well, they had to be chosen from that world, they should not be spoken to on the rules, and also, we can only provide mild blessings to them. Fuck the rules! I am the god of thieves, the great Furter! Did they really expect me to follow the rules? Lets see... Physical ability max, all weapon aptitude max, stealth max, agility max, all magic aptitude max, and a few 'mild' items. The holy sword Akubaba, infinite item storage, yep you're all set." (Farter)"

"Its Furter!"(Furtard)

"In short, I'm a cheat?"(Colm)

"No, I'm a cheat, you're the commodity I'm cheating on. Well, go out there and steal a bunch of stuff! Do me proud!"(Furry piece of shit)

"Well, some information first. The names and attributes of the 7 gods."(Colm)

"It ain't free. you gotta kill two people for me."(Furless monkey)

"It shall be done"(Colm)

"The godchild of creativity, Toa, and one more guy....."(Farting old piece of shit monkey that needs to grow some brains)

"...The bastard writing the goddamn novel. Well its not possible for you cause he's from your previous world..."
