Chapter 15
"Hello mother" Johanna rather coldly
*growl*"why are you here mother" ghost burning with anger
"What brings the greater goddess of charm to meat us" mr.smith
"For a goddess of charm you’re rather ugly, your children are easily 10 times as beautiful as you" jack
Everyone looked at me in a mixture of shock and awe, except for Johanna and ghost who were still staring at their mother
"You tried to kill me! Your own daughter!" ghost
"Oh, now that’s some interesting information" jack
"Why is that?" mr.smith
"Can someone please explain the punishment for trying to kill someone I care about?" jack
"A painful death, but are you seriously planning on killing a god? Without a weapon?" jacobe
"Don’t insult me" goddess of charm
As soon as she said that she lunged at me.
"Too slow" jack
I side step and strike her in the side of the head, hard. I feel stronger, a lot stronger.
'Must be the result of my soul eater ability and my devourer of soul’s title' jack
She glares at me angrily.
"YOU DARE HIT ME!? I WILL SEND YOU TO HELL FOR YOUR TRANSG-" charm
I shut her up with a strike to the gut. After which she tries to rip my head off, failing miserably.
'Speaking of soul eater I wonder if I can eat a god' jack
I bite her arm and rip off some of her flesh, swallowing it. She manages to hit me in chest. She didn't hit me because I couldn’t dodge, but because I was so engrossed in the taste of her flesh. It was delicious, the greatest thing I have ever tasted. Her savory meat and sweet blood, I understand why vampires love the taste of blood so much. I lick my lips, sending her into a rage.

"You know, I’ve been wondering something. Why haven’t you used magic against me? Gods have extremely powerful magic right? Or maybe the only magic you can use is charm magic." jack
By the look on her face I was right on the money.
"That sucks for you because I’m immune to charm magic, courtesy of a certain succubus" jack
She then tried to strike me in the face. Instead of dodging I bit some of her fingers off, 3 to be exact. She lunged at my one more time; I sidestepped, grabbed her arm, twisted it behind her, and sunk my teeth into her shoulder. This time instead of ripping I decide to suck out that sweet nect- I mean blood.
skill obtained: vampirism
I felt my canines elongate and the ease of which I was sucking her blood out increased. she somehow broke free when I relaxed my grip.
"I’m retreating this time, but next time I’ll kill you, I swear it by all the ancient gods" charm
"yah, good luck with that" jack
I suddenly feel extremely light headed and I fall to the ground, slowly loosing consciousness
"he'll be fine, just too much power in is body for it to handle right now" mr.smith
title obtained: god eater
I wake up in a black room, no not a black room as I am simply floating.
"hello" god of death
"if you've come to see me it probably means I have died, right?" jack
"no, not at all. you are still very much alive" god of death
"then why?" jack
"some of the higher-ups pulled a few strings to get you a new body" god of death
"why?" jack
"some people, me included, have grudges against that goddess of charm. or rather that spirit of charm now." happy god of death

"so what are my options?" jack
congratulations! you get a new body! and thanks for showing me that hilarious scene. here are your options: imp, goblin, zombie, cat
"these options seem kind of weak" jack
"don't worry about that, you are capable of evolving 3 or 4 times right now, these are just to show you the path currently available for you to go down" god of death
"interesting, I guess I’ll be a demon then. I chose the imp" jack
"oh, most people chose goblin" god of death
skill obtained: demonic presence
title obtained: the reborn
congratulations! you have evolved into greater imp
skill obtained: torment
congratulations! you can evolve! chose one of the following: lesser shadowling, lesser ginger
"why those options?" jack
"for ginger it's because of your soul eater ability, for shadowling it's because of your fighting style. using shadows to hide yourself and attack your opponent from behind. although gingers are considered higher ranking demons than shadowlings" god of death
"then I guess I chose shadowling, fits me better" jack
congratulations! you have evolved into lesser shadowling
skill obtained: thin presence
skill obtained: silent step
skill obtained: blink
"now you have 1 more evolution, chose wisely" god of death
congratulations! you can evolve! chose one of the following: greater shadowling, devil
"greater shadowling of course" jack
skill obtained: transparency
"so what do I go back to the world of the living now?" jack
"no you have a little bit before you waked up" god of death
"so what now?" jack
"you ask me questions" god of death
"why?" jack
"consider it a personal favor, I don't like that charm goddess any more than the next god or goddess" god of death
"fair enough, so why does everyone hate her?" jack
"different reasons. to sum it up, she is a little bitch. I don't like her because she killed my son after he resisted her charms, of course that was hundreds of years ago" god of death
"well then, so I’m pretty popular with the gods right now, right?" jack
"how could you not be, the only god that didn't have a grudge against her is the absolute god, and even he hates her." god of death
"then why hasn't anyone done anything against her yet?" jack
"her charm magic is extremely powerful. you could even say she’s a genius, no one could go against her." god of death
"what is a god really?"jack
"a god is one of three things. a child of 2 gods, a non spirit type creature that got so powerful that their soul fused wittier body, or a spirit type creature that got powerful enough to create their own body." god of death
"why has the world changed the way it has?" jack
"for the entertainment of the gods, and the whim of the absolute god, but there will be more updates to your world." god of death
"updates?" jack
"their is going to be some changes to the 'system', nice name by the way, the closest one in the future is the ability to increase stats manually, I can’t tell you any of the others as they are classified beyond my right to know" god of death
"fair enough. I don't really have any more questions" jack
"and it's time for you to wake up anyway" god of death

A Universe of Bloody Evolution
The Void was never meant to be opened to the Multiverse. The horrors waiting inside it should have never seen the light. And yet, the biggest mistake in the history of creation led to the impossible. In an event later known as the Outbreak, gates appeared in the first Universe, and with them, the Void was free. For ages the Void destroyed universe after universe, spreading its power in every direction, leaving only death and pain behind. But before every Universe met its end, it still had a chance. A small part of the population that survived the initial Outbreak and was granted a mysterious System to help them fight against the dangers that came from the Void. They were the Multiverse's last hope even if they couldn't stop the collapse of their own world. And so the cycle continued until the 36th Outbreak came. Leo Hale, a young reporter from Wolford, was one of the lucky ones to survive when the majority of Earth's population turned into monsters straight out of nightmares. Thrust into a constant battle for his life, Leo was determined to push forward and find his remaining family. Even if it meant sacrificing what was left of his humanity. After all, you either adapt or die. Story of progression and evolution with my take at the post-apocalyptic genre. Unlike most monster evolution stories where the monster rushes to gain human form, here I plan to do something quite the opposite. After all, in a world where almost everything wants to kill you, being human can be hard. Warnings are here to give me the freedom to write whatever is necessary. This is my first original novel. Also English isn't my native language so any feedback is welcome. Remember that even if initially this story takes place on Earth, fictional places, streets, etc will appear. Release Schedule: Monday - Wednesday - Friday Average chapter length: 2000-2500 words (There might be exceptions as is the case with some of the first chapters - most of them are longer.)
