《The Stupid God who tries to get better》Chapter 12- First step towards becoming a god again.
Advertisement
As soon as I went in I saw Brook at his table sitting at his desk. His assistant was standing to his side and handing over documents to him. There was also another guy in the room.
A small kid probably around 13 years old for human age. He had brown hair and dark eyes. He looked like a energetic kid who is always playing around. He had an unexplainable aura around him but I wasn't able to tell what it was.
Slam!-
I walked up to the table and slammed both my hands on it.
“Brook, now can you tell me why you wanted me to come here.”
Brook finally looked away from his papers and looked at me.
“Well~ I want you to find the witch as soon as possible and for that you need the demigod’s trust. It just seems more like child’s play to me. If you want the best demigods to help you complete whatever task you have come to do, you need to do one task that they offered you to do. The task will be finding the new recruit and bringing the new demigod to the palace again.”
All that info dumping of the past few days confused me. I am a God a 'God’, and I have to do stupid things because my bald father sent me here. I don't know what I have to do and I was even stripped off my powers.
“Ok ….. so I need to find this demigod and bring it back to the paradise, but where do I find it and when am I supposed to find it and how will I find it??”
“Well for starters, stop calling the demigod 'it’. I called you here to precisely answer all those questions of yours.
As you know Mooyoon has three major continents but they are separated from each other by sea.
The demigod’s paradise is a separate dimension that isn't on any continent but it still exists on Mooyoon. It is very difficult to understand the mechanism of time and space so I won't be telling you about it.
We have different teleportation channels from the palace to the main cities of the three continents. The smallest continent- Arogen is the place where you have to go to.
In the vast expanse of Arogen there is a Famous city called- Mallipuram and we have a teleportation channel in Mallipuram. I want you and this other kid go to this place and find the demigod and come back to Mallipuram so you can be teleported back to the palace……..”
Snore~ Snore~
“............”
Snore~ Snore~
“Lightning bolt!”
“Aaaaaaahhhh!!”
I woke up with a start! Wtf?! I just slept for sometime, you didn't have to electrocute me!!
“I didn't sleep last night alright! And your long speech was too boring!”
As I said that I saw Brooks hand go up and point towards me, it gave off ominous purple lightning sparks. Coupled with that ominous smile on his face I felt that I would get burnt to a crisp this time if he shoots again.

“Alright ! Alright I'll listen properly this time and I won't doze off!”
The sparks went off with Brook’s idiotic smile and he finally kept his hand down.
“Well since you want to catch up on sleep so much, I just give a brief summary- You have to go to Mallipuram and get a demigod to the palace. The demigod might be within a 200 km radius and it's your job to find the demigod-”
“Hold on! I have to find a person within 200 km radius?! Isn’t it just like finding a needle in a haystack?!”
“Let me finish- you'll also get a search tool which basically tells you the location of the demigod when it is in 50 km radius.”
“Ok, but it'll still be hassle. I think I can do it! I'll be going back to my room now.”
I turned back to entrance and started walking out of this place.
Finally I can sleep without any troubles~
But Brook wouldn't let me stay peacefully now, would he?
Just as I was about to go, Brook got up and caught my shoulder with his hand.
“Urk! What is it now?”
“I forgot to introduce you to someone.”
“What?”
He looked at the small child who looked about thirteen and had been playing with his cards in his hands all this time.
“Theo, come on over.”
The small guy looked up and ran towards us.
“Hello! My name is Theodore! I hope to have a safe journey with the great lord.”
Huh? What's this pipsqueak talking about?
“Benza this is Theodore, he is also a demigod and he is quite a pure blood. Almost ten percent of his blood is divine blood. He is a new recruit as well and will be tagging along with you for assistance.
Every new recruit has to go out on a mission after a certain level of training. This is the tradition of the camp and this will be his first mission.”
“Ehhh? But why do I have to take care of this brat? I can't bring him along! It'll just be a burden!”
Brook looked at me strangely- “ No it's more like you are the burden. He has some amount of training and divine blood in him while you can't shoot an arrow when you are supposed to be the God of archery.”
Every word of his was like a sword that stabbed into my chest. Why? Why have I become so weak?
“Even so I can't bring a kid along!”
“Just shut up and do as I say, it's more like I am sending a bodyguard but you don't want it.”
“Alright fine!” Although I don't want to admit it he is right now. I don't have my powers but once I get them back I'll make sure to demote Brook to become a sweeper at the demigod’s palace!

“Ok I am going back to my room now.”
I was so tired that I just wanted to sleep. But the hand with which Brook was catching my shoulder got tighter.
“Not so fast. Don't you want to get out of that body? It’s so bad looking plus it doesn't even have any powers and on top of that it has a lot of 'inconveniences’ that Gods don't have.”
My head was spinning right now but heart was beating faster.
“You're right!”
“So don't you think you should start on your first step on finishing you mission as fast as you can?”
“You're right!”
“Don't you want to take revenge on all those who wronged you when you get back your powers?”
“You're right!” especially you and that bald idiot!
“Don't you want to sit back and relax and not be worrying about some mission you have to do all the time?”
“You're right!”
“So why don't you leave to complete the mission today itself.”
“You're right!... Wait, what?”
Before I could say anything more, Brook’s servant or something(Marsh) came up to me and tied a backpack to my back.
“It's got all the necessary items for survival and it's also got some cash so use it well.”
After saying that Brook suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of me and Theodore.
“ “ Waaah!!”” Both me and Theodore shouted continuously before my vision blurred and I was in a dark room the by the time my vision returned.
“What the fuck! Can't you do something nicely?”
I knew Brook could travel fast but I couldn't right now! Fuck! And this body isn't even suitable for travelling so fast.
My head which was already spinning started spinning more and I felt that I would vomit at any second.
Just when I thought it couldn't get worse, I felt a sharp pain from my buttocks which flung me off from the ground and into the air.
“Ouch! Fuck!”
“Ouch!”
Theodore’s voice also came into my ears. It seems that I was not the only one who got kicked in the ass. I felt a little closer to him now.
My vision blurred again before I was on a concrete street.
Thud- Thud-
Two noises were heard as I fell onto the concrete street with Theodore next to me catching his bum.
As for me? I couldn't bother about the pain in my bum because I couldn't control the nausea anymore.
Blurg! Blurg!
The delicious stuff I had for breakfast came out from my mouth and splattered everywhere on the concrete. After a long time of throwing up I finally stabilized myself and looked at my surroundings.
There were people everywhere and many of them were looking at me weirdly. Theodore was patting my back to help me feel better. He's a good kid!
Honk! Honk!
There were vehicles similar to the underworld car, only they looked much better than the underworld car.
I looked towards the sky with tears threatening to fall out. Why? What had I done for such injustice?
“BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK!!!!!!” I swear I'll shove a fucking steel rod into his @*s!
I got up and searched the bag that the servant had tied on to me. I found a water bottle in it. Oh! At Least there's some water in it.
I rinsed my mouth and kept the bottle back into the bag while people were still looking at me weirdly.
Next I took out the search tool which looked like a compass.
“Let's go find that demigod kid!”
Theodore who was next to me grinned.
“Yeah!”
Brook-
“Sir don't you think that was a little harsh?”
“ No Marsh he deserves it besides he has Theodore with him so it should be fine.”
I, Brook was back in my office checking up on some documents after kicking those two out.
I’m sure Benza would be cursing me right now. It was pretty tough convincing that idiot to do what I wanted and finally I am free of headaches or so I thought-
Zooooom!-
Crash!
The windows of my office broke and a rocket like object was stuck on my desk giving off smoke after destroying all the papers that were around it.
“Marsh? There was nothing important in those papers was there?”
“I-i don't think so sir.”
Clearly Marsh was more shocked that I was being more far away from the impact.
“More importantly what is this sir?”
“This? This is Nova messenger. A kind of tool used by Gods for sending messages to people when it's a top secret. Although I don't think it is quite secretive, it does keep the message inside safe.”
The mini red rocket that was stuck onto my bench suddenly split into two parts and a paper came out of it slowly floating in the air.
“But sir, why would a God send us a message right now and that too in secrecy?”
“That is what I'm worried about as well.”
I grabbed the paper which was rolled and opened it.-
From Gaya,
Take good care of my child or I will destroy your puny demigod’s palace into a place of rubbles.
I felt another storm brewing as my headaches had a plus one on them.
“Marsh I think I need another coffee. Oh, and with 20 spoons of sugar this time.”

A World With or Without Aliens
Nothing matters. It's not my opinion, it's a scientific fact. This is neither good nor bad, it just... is. I watched my entire country burn, fried on a patriotic pan after some jerk fired a bunch of nukes at the docile fleet of alien ships hovering over us. Who gave this moron such power? I don't know. Everyone involved is most likely dead by now. As for me, I can't die. I feel pain like a normal person would (I think), but no matter how terrible the conditions, I will never die or pass out. Fortunately, a lot of alien technology survived its crash to Earth, so I get to spend some time playing with it until Mr. Author gets bored and decides to screw up my life. Beware, this has a "harem" tag. If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm the main character and am therefore subject to this novel's timeline. While this bars me from the sweet ignorance of Chapter 1's me, it does have other perks... for example, I can tell you that heroine number one is personally responsible for kil-!? H-hey, back off! I'm your character, so if you didn't want me to be like this, then you should've written me differently! Randomguy here! In all seriousness, this novel is meant to explore the concept of nihilism as a post-apocalyptic/supernatural-scifi/satire told from a nihilistic introvert's first-person perspective. As you heard from my unsettled main character, each heroine is going to be a different type of horrifying socio/psychopath with dark motives and dangerous abilities (most of which are psychological). Why would I do something like this? Because I am, in reality, a nihilist who is often frustrated by weird things, like unrealistically dramatic stories, the industrialization of art (specifically music), and people who think swimming in brown creekwater for five hours is a "fun" activity. Don't get me wrong, neither me nor my character are depressed, we're just malcontents who make a lot of nerd references. I feel like the true essence of an "everything is worthless" perspective is lost on most pop-culture figures. The closest character I can think of at the moment is Rick from Rick and Morty, who is a drunk, angry nihilist that experienced tremendous loss. I, personally, find this belligerent state of mind to be very relatable, and have incorperated it into every chapter's introduction. Here, the main character talks directly to the reader (and me), shamelessly complaining about some semi-relevant facet of society, which probably doesn't make much sense... it's not really supposed to, though. These "angry nihilist" moments are just a peak into the main character's everyday existence, and also act as miniature rage-journals for me. It will sometimes take a subjectively 'positive' turn, but not very often. This is because reality isn't good or bad, "it just... is". I will eventually bring it full-circle to optimistic nihilism, since that seems to be a more practical way to live (and by "practical", I mean "doesn't create mental health issues"). It is, of course, a satire. I did this because most unnecessarily emotional moments or people usually make me feel kind of awkward, so I decided to mock them. That is, I plan to mock the characteristics about them I don't like in characters based solely off said characteristics. Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy my story!
