《The Journey to Godhood: A Madman's Dream》Ch: 4

With a wave of Belesh's hand a table and two chairs appeared out of thin air. The table was just your average table.
"Come, come sit. Let's talk for a bit."
"Sure."
There was no chair for Eliza so she was forced to stand. Her eyes lost focus and she was staring blankly without saying a word.
"Hahaha, who would have guessed that a person like you appeared. Kid, your arrival fills me with joy."
I knew I was awesome, a man that has braved countless years in solitude, good that someone recognizes my genius.
"Hehehe, Belesh, surely you jest. I'm nothing but a humble man."
"Good, good. You aren't arrogant despite your potential. Anyway, let's get right to business. You have a gift kid, do you know what it is?"
"I guess it has something to do with this black stuff inside my soul."
"Correct. Do you know what it is?"
"I have no idea I hope you can enlighten me."
"Kid, what you carry inside you is a seed of hatred."
"Seed of hatred?"
Wow, this sounded awesome.
"Let me explain the history behind it. As you know there a gods like me and then there are you mortals that we created."
I nodded, that made sense.
"Before the creation of your kind there were another creation that went extinct, they were called the Titans. They wielded huge powers just beneath us gods."
Eliza face turned serious, it seemed like she heard about this for the first time.
"The Titans were a proud race, soon they wanted to be more independent from us gods. In the old times we had much more influence on the mortals and lived like kings. We ruled over them and made them worship us."
"A independence movement started and was a thorn in the eyes of us gods. We feared losing control over them. The light gods might seem like the good guys but they hate it when there is no order. We dark gods were tasked with punishing the ones that were showing resistance. We killed infants that had talent, to keep there strength down. The Titatans were even forced to sacrifice their children to show their allegiance."
That was some heavy shit.
"To tell you the truth we gods feared the Titans since there were showing power that was almost equal to us. This was out of our expectation, the creation should never surpass the creator. There are some mysterious that even we gods don't understand."
"What? Even you gods don't understand every mystery of life?"
"Laughable isn't it? This makes one question, is there a god above us gods? Do we even deserve to be called gods. This thinking is dangerous, so you shouldn't delve into this matter."
Eliza's mouth dropped a look of disbelief showed on here face.Yet she didn't dare to speak up.
"This one will remember your words, I'm glad that I'm talking to such an open minded god."
My impression of Belesh rose, even though he was a god he is not blind and recognizes that there are heavens above heavens.
Belesh nodded in approvement and continued with his history lesson.
"Anyway, the Titans lived in misery and their hatred grew to unprecedented highs. In the darkest times a man rose to power, he wielded immense powers that could kill gods. He burned with hatred and was even able to raise an army of undead.

His name was Gomez the leader of the resistance. He waged a war against us gods. The war went on for thousand years, countless gods died by his hands. He died in an ambush by the strongest gods but not before taking thousands of gods with him to death."
My eyes widen with shock, the power to kill gods? The power to raise an army of undead. His history lesson wasn't something he would tell me for no reason. Could it be that that the seed of hatred...
"You are right." Belesh seemed to have guessed my thoughts.
"The seed of hatred was also inside Gomez's soul. It was the seed that gave him the power to kill gods. The same seed that resides inside your soul. "
My whole body trembled, this is some earth shattering news.
"No way, how can this be?" Eliza couldn't help but exclaim in shock. Her whole body was shaking.
"Now that the seed of hatred appeared yet again, the ways of the gods will change. I see that your seed is only at its beginning stage you can't even say that it sprouted. If you are able to nurture the seed you powers will grow. Someday you will wield the power to kill gods."
"Why are you telling me this, aren't you a god yourself? Wouldn't it be better to kill me off before I can mature."
"I'll be honest with you kid, I hope that you can do something for me. Only you who has a the seed of hatred can accomplish this task. Of course I will give you something in return."
"Now this sounds interesting. What can you offer me?"
"I can give you a new life, in a new world."
Okay, hold on for a second, I must be dreaming.
"You mean reincarnation? Hell yes, this place started to get boring. Where do I sign up."
"Don't you want to know the conditions?"
"Pah, who cares, it's better to not know. When I reach my peak power just hook me up."
"Great, I'll just do that. The place I have chose for you is full of magic and peace is fragile, the perfect place for you to rise in power."
"Father, please think twice. We can't be sure whether he'll keep his word." Eliza became quite agitated she begged her father to reconsider.
"Enough, whom I trust isn't for you to decide. Even if he were to break his promise at least we'll have a good show to watch." Belesh held his belly and let out an evil laugh.
"Worry not Belesh, I'm a man that pays his bills. If you help me gain a new life I won't have and ill intent towards you. I might have no face but Im not an ungrateful brat."
"Well said." Belesh nodded in approvement.
"Also, since you will be reborn I need to seal your powers. Your new vessel won't handle your powers. I will put on seal on your soul that will unseal bit for bit. The more strength you gain the more will your powers be unsealed."
"You speak reason Belesh, make it so. Also will I still be able to nurture my seed when sealed?"
"Of course, I see you are eager to become strong. I can also give you a power so that you will have an easy start. Do you have a preferred power I can grant you?"

"I want the power to create the things I want."
Belesh's eyes widen in surprise and pleasant simile appeared on his face.
"Hohoho, you are interesting indeed. Most men want strength or huge magic powers."
"As I said, I'm the most profound mortal there is."
"Hahaha, yes, yes great. There is however a restriction with the powers you wish to have. You can't create something out of nothing, you only can convert magical items or materials into something you desire."
"I was afraid that it would to be too easy, since the power I desire is somewhat of a cheat."
"Good I was afraid that you will become too lazy with the power I'll give you. Seems like I was worried for nothing."
To a new world, a world with magic. Damn, I gonna live out my fantasies. Hohoho.
"A Belesh I forgot to ask. Will I keep my memories?"
"Of course, how else will you remember our promise. Is there anything left?"
"Yes, Eliza come here."
Eliza looked at here father with pleading eyes.
"Eliza our honored is asking for you. You wouldn't want me to lose face wouldn't you?"
"No father." She came to me with reluctance. Her eyes starred daggers at me.
I couldn't help but smile.
"What?" She said in cold tone.
"Is this how you talk to a honored guests? I see your father was a bit too lenient in you education. Allow me to correct your lose mouth of yours."
I swiftly put her over my lap and begun spanking her ass.
"What?" She cried out in shock not believing what is taking place. She didn't react when I tried to pull her over my lap.
Belesh eyes widen in shock and his mouth was wide agape.
After a few spanks she begun to moan.
"To enjoy humiliation like that and even in front of you father I have underestimated you."
Her whole body trembled from joy. I let her go, she woke up from her trance like state. After realizing her shameful display in front of her father she begun to tear up.
It seemed like I unlocked a part of her that she didn't knew existed.
Her legs lost strength and she fell down on her ass. She couldn't utter a single word.
Belesh cleared his throat, he seemed rather embarrassed with his face turning red.
"Aiya, Kid I'm sorry that you had to see something like this. I'm pleased that you showed her place. She didn't knew the difference between good and bad. For you to have done my job as a father this one is embarrassed."
"What are you saying Belesh. This was quite pleasing to see. You shouldn't be too hard on your daughter. She is quite an interesting character with many contradictions."
Hearing that Eliza looked down not daring to meet anyone's eye. Her head turned red from blushing.
"Hahaha, yes. If you say so, I wouldn't even mind for you to marry her."
Hearing the approvement of her father Eliza couldn't help but look up in disbelief.
She looked at me with a flashing in her eyes. I don't know what she was thinking but it seemed like she saw me in a new light.
"Belesh, I will think about it when she is more mature, how I see it she is still a child."
Belesh begun to chuckle.
"Not many dare to call her a child but you are right she is still lacking. Well, it's too early for such talks."
I looked around and saw the doggy still covering in fear.
"Belesh, can I take this dog with me? I'm sure that he'll come in handy."
"Ho? I can do it but he'll be linked to your soul. You can summon him anytime you want, but he will be like a new born so its strength will be low at the beginning.Also it will take some years before you can summon him."
"No problem, leveling will be easier with a pet, it can tank and pull aggro."
Belesh waved his hand and the hell hound turned into dark specks that fused with my soul.
"I don't know what you are talking about but it sounds like you have use for it. Well, I will sent you on your way kid."
"Make it so."
With a smile Belesh made a incantation gesture with both hands. My vision turned dark.
- - - -
I was in a dark place and my movement was quite limited. This place was warm and cozy, I could hear a heart beat.
I was not born yet. I had big plans so this was a bad place to start my journey.
I wanted to get out, there were people deserving to get rekt.
Training was out of question, since this place was not suitable.
- - - -
After a few days there was a change. It seemed like birth was taking place. I felt like a big concrete shit that someone tried push out desperately. After a some time I could see light at the end of the tunnel.
Finally. My vision was blurry but I could see two people. I was held by the woman, she must be the midwife.
"He is not crying!" The mid wife became agitated. Worry was clearly seen on her face.
I can understand them, good job Belesh.
"How can this be?" The man came closer.
"Is my son alright?"
The wife held me upside down and begun to spank my ass. Hey, that was my signature move, humph now I won't cry, no matter what. I'm was not like a baby doll that had crying features, my pride was hurt.
After noticing that her spanking had no use she became more worried.
"I'm sorry miss it seems like your son is mute." The mid wife said.
"Noo." A tear stained woman came and held me in her hands.
She was beautiful with silver hair and red eyes. Her skin was white as snow and flawless like jade.
I looked around and saw the man on his knees sobbing like a bitch. He was burly and had a mustache, with shit colored hair, but it was not your average shit colored shit more like chestnut colored shit.
The house was build out of wood and the furniture was rather basic, seems like we were not poor but not rich either. Well, who care at least my body won't be sold because were too poor.
It also didn't seem like I will be discarded, so I can keep the act of being an invalid. Like this I would get special attention and if I did something stupid then they could blame my retardation, sweet.

Reality Grants One Chance
Some people are lucky, some aren't, some - have terrible luck. Our "hero" is of the latter kind. During young age he got into an accident, which allowed him to learn the fact that he belongs to a rare group of people.. People diagnosed with lung cancer, which he, however survived. Can't say he's lucky, as his life went downhill from that point... Our story happens years later, when his fate decides to make a loop and throw him in the same kind of accident. He gets hit by a truck. Surviving the crash, suffering just a few scratches, he is ultimately "lucky" to find himself out of the hospital in no time.. however every bit of good luck always brings him terrible luck afterwards. This time pushing him maybe a bit too far.. How far? Making him vanish without a trace and find himself in the middle of an unknown forrest. Doesn't sound bad? He can consider himself lucky? Just wait and see...It can always get worse.. always.. .... Congratulations, you've made it through the intro and into the author note! If you by any chance missed the tags and didn't read the warning, please do that now. I really recommend you to. Before you jump to reading, and unintentionally scar yourself, do mind that the story is about a dark, unforgiving world, a world in which you have more opportunities to die a horrible death, than take a piss. Hero doesn't have great luck, he has dumb persistance, he doesn't go through any trial with a breeze, he pays the price of blood, flesh and tears to live..and will be paying for every mistake.. No one outright explains anything to him, just as us for the most part - he is not sure what the hell is going on.. Some real survival tactics are used as a base of the descriptions, they are as important to the world and character as any other element.. Mind that the story starts really slow, but as the stone starts rolling downhill - the pace gets faster.. Every tag for this novel has a reason to be there, so if you don't see the particular element there, don't panic.. it's either well camoufalged, subtle or simply not encountered as of yet. Big thanks to Hobbo, Enyhrye and Hveth! ...not only pointing that the description could be better, but providing invaluable input.. and being patient enough to give fleshed out advice.
