Athena Goddess who have high reputation among the gods and goddesses, Takafumi only thought that the gods and goddess were mythical, he could not believe that he could saw Athena Goddess for real.

“I knew you have many questions, before that, I needed to tell you briefly of this world; Zues, the king of gods and goddesses was created 5 worlds, each world had several parallel worlds in different style and time line. The origin of this world was created thousands of years ago. Zues created this world with plenty of natural and wild animals. Zues also created World Spirit as you may know as World tree spirit, a great spirit that rules the spirits world, there were element spirits, water, wind, earth, fire, light and dark that generates and balances the natural.” said Athena Goddess

“All of the gods and goddesses could not interfere in any worlds directly unless special or emergency case that needed the permission from Zues. Therefore, I was created my representatives in this world instead, afterwards, I could interfere any worsened situation of this world indirectly.”

“A thousand years ago, I was incarnated my power to ‘Helius’, the demigod. I created his body with ideal type of dragon, strong body, high magic power and could transform into human form. I have given 1 in 10 of my power to him, it was maximum of power that could give to representative of god or goddess. His abilities were all 4 elements of magic types, and strong with light, healing and protection magic power. His dragon form was black dragon with blue sapphire eyes and in human form, he was a formidable man with tall, handsome, black hair and blue sapphire eyes. His body could rebirth himself by lay an egg and hatch itself for stronger body and magic power once a thousand years. He had duties to balance power and made the world peaceful. And he was an ancestor of the boy body that now, your soul was belong to.”

“I was also incarnated my power to ‘Agnes’, The Queen of elves, I created her body with ideal type of long-life race and compatible with the natural. Her body could live by my magic power and the natural energy around her. It made here appearance was not aged. I have given 1 in 15 of my power to her. Her abilities were matching with natural and element magic power the most and also strong with time and protection magic. The ideal body of the 8 high elves were as same as Agnes but they got 1 in 100 of my power. Their abilities were also matching with natural and element magic power the most and strong in individual magic, the magic that related to create, craft, growth, protect and heal. They had duties to protect and keep balance of natural in this world.”

“900 years ago, I created human physical bodies and attached souls from other worlds including parallel worlds by erased their previous memory but maintain their intelligence and some ability individually. Therefore, they could be guided their life by themselves and sometime the humans got the guidance from spirits without knowing the existence of spirits.”

“600 years ago, this world was disturbed by Ares God, the god of brutal war, he was cruel and slaughter, that why he had no duty in any worlds. He has been created ‘Diabolus’ by Incarnate some of his dark magic power to human-monster body, its shape with strong physical human body and had Taurus horn on its head, cruel and slaughter like Ares.”

“Ares also created 4 Monster Lords in human-monster body with intelligence and high of dark magic power. They made wild animals changed to be monsters by fed them dark magic stones. They planned to destroy human world but failed because I had protection planned and predicted the situation since the beginning, that why I incarnated my power to Helius, Agnes, and 8 High elves before created the humans. I knew that Ares crazy of war, battle and slaughter for increasing his dark magic power. Zues punished and taken his power away but he found other way of increasing his power by generate war and got humans sacrifice from war."

“I also given magic power to humans to fight the monsters and could be inherited to their descendants but their power would be taken away when they had bad intention or dangerous behavior to the innocent lives.”

“A human name ‘Stella’ the first Empress of Sapientia Empire, her soul was reincarnated by rebirth with her previous life memory. It was my backing up plan to choose the pure souls every century, their souls mostly have talent, good intention, and brave. In case of destroy Diabolus completely, the holy magic power was required to purify the dark magic core at his heart, only woman could hold this power, Stella was a best choice of that time.”

“Excuse me, Could I ask something? I understood the situation that you explained but why am I here and in this child body?” asked Takafumi, questions exploded in his head but he asked her shortly because of a lot of information he got from the goddess and he could guess the situation next.

“You and the boy were died at the same time, you died from hard work, the boy died from severed hit. The both souls were on the way to ‘The world of Justice’ It was the space between Heaven and Underworld for making justice to all of souls. There were reborn, reincarnation, and destroy. The souls must get one of these choices and all of souls got erased the memory that they saw in the world of justice,” said Athena Goddess and explained more.

“It was one of space that Zues, gods and goddesses that had duty of taking care the worlds could interfere. That means, we could be chosen any souls to be reincarnate to our world; most of souls are randomly reborn with no memory of previous life, pure souls could reincarnate with previous memory, bad souls got punishment and destroy in underworld, the souls could not go back to their previous physical body. I have chosen your soul to reincarnate in this child body.”

“Why did it have to be me? Is there any reason to be this child body? Is there anything related to that Diabolus monster? I’m a business man who love playing and developing game. I have no idea that I could be any of help here.” Takafumi asked curiously.

“You are smart, I knew you could guess something. I have chosen your soul because of timing, your soul was pure, you also have creative skill and intelligence ability. Your knowledge, skill and ability merged with the magic power of this child body would be the key to win against the darkness. I was predicted of the returning of darkness that will be occurring again and crueler than the past,” said Athena Goddess, smiled sadly.

“After Ares god got punished by Zeus last time. He got imprison deep inside the underworld. The underworld was overcrowding with bad souls. More humans were made cruel things and a lot of bad souls go there. Bad energy of bad souls leaked to Ares god little by little, that’s why he could escaped from the prison recently.”

“I was afraid that he would be up to something after he recovered his power. I needed to prepare everything for the upcoming situation. I thought that he will resurrection Diabolus again with more powerful but he still need time to collect energy of humans sacrifices from war. And you knew that worlds had several parallel worlds itself. Zues and Hades, King of Underworld was still finding and capturing him. If Ares could escape successfully, the estimate time of his power recovering might be around 15-20 years, at least.”

“You said that, there was the requirement of holy magic power to purify the darkness completely and it must be handle by woman, but I am a man whose souls belong to the boy body. How could I be the key to win against the darkness?” Takafumi asked.

“I have already chosen the reincarnate soul of Stella to be rebirth with no memory this time, I needed the new strategy, now she is a princess of Sapientia Empire, her age was as same as the boy. She was the one who inherited holy magic power and had duty to destroy the dark magic core of powerful monster, or king of monsters. Neither of you could do it alone, you also need the trustworthy companions and help each other to destroy all of the darkness power,” said Athena Goddess.

“Could you please tell me more about this boy? Who is he? Did he still have family? What about the descendant of Helius?” Takafumi asked, he was accepting all of the situation but he would like to know more in detail for preparing himself in the future.

“After the incident of Diabolus in the past, Helius married human, had family name of Fortis, they had 5 children and their bloodline were continually until the present; the boy was one of direct bloodline and the right heir who inherited the most powerful magic core among the family’s history but his soul was not pure and brave that why he could not handle the power and died easily,” said Athena Goddess.

“The boy’s name is ‘Ilario H. De Fortis’ , 5 years old. Remember the name and use it in this world because the boy still has family, they were still looking for the boy after got kidnapped. It was not the right time for you to return to the boy’s family now, you have to learn everything from Agnes and other elves until your body grew up and strong enough to protect yourself. — If you go back now, you could find comfortable life but in short time because of your family magic power was very well known. There were many greedy humans that would like to possess the magic power. It was easier to experiment the power from child, that why the boy got kidnapped. They want to sell the boy to other countries for that reason because other countries have no magic power. — It was fate that it had to be you, the power could not belong to bad humans. I will give you more magic power,” said Athena Goddess and given Ilario a gold apple, it was floated in the air and flew into his hand.

“Eat it, it could double both of your magic power and the stamina of physical body, the magic power and stamina will be continually increasing as follow as your age, you needed the strong physical body to handle high magic power, you could build more stamina by physical training. Your magic power will be higher than one of high elf when you reach to 18 years old,” said Athena Goddess firmly.

Ilario ate the gold apple, the taste was sweet, he felt more energy circulated in his body, the birthmark shining bright with gold light and then remain as the gold aura lightly around it.

“Is this mark relate to my birth or my magic power?” Ilario asked Athena goddess curiously while showing his mark to her.

“Yes, it was related to both of your birth and magic power,” said Athena Goddess “Helius, Agnes, 8 high elves, and Stella had magic symbol mark on back of the right hand in signification of their power, their descendants also inherited the magic symbol mark. Normally, the inherited mark was black but it could change to be gold aura, the more magic power, the more gold aura shining.”

“There were several humans that I have given magic power at that time of monsters suppression in the past, their power was medium to low level, they had no magic symbol mark but their descendants still inherited their power continually. — Most of human races had no magic power. It made humans who have magic power were special in this world.”

“I have given you more magic power as my special gift and sincerely apologized to you for chosen your soul to be reincarnated without asking your opinion. I will grant one wish after you finished the duty, it would be thankful gift for your help”

“You need to learn how to control your magic power and develop more abilities as fast as you could. Agnes and the elves would be teaching you. Remember that you should not overdo yourself until you reach at 8 years old.”

The appearance of Athena Goddess changed back to be world tree spirit. She smiled lightly and then disappeared.
