I DIED AND WAS REINCARNATED AS ..... A GOD?

Chapter 7: Dominion



According to the "system" it has been 3 months since I died, talked to the god of knowledge Orion, when I was chosen as a god, being an anomaly, and since I left my home universe. In that time I have learned several things, like what is the System, at first I thought it was a "question and answer" style program but I couldn't be more wrong.

Apparently it has a kind of consciousness, as if it was alive, and apparently it has a lot of knowledge of the multiverse and the birth of reality, Orion and his colleague spared no expense for its creation. And I already understood why when he speaks to me he calls me as "mister ####", and apparently as I am a novice god with no universe or focus, I don't have a name as such, this will be given to me when I have a civilization that worships me. I also began training with the help of the system, which I named Sarasvi, after an ancient goddess who was in charge of storing the knowledge of the impure.

I learned that divine energy is the basis of all life, and that any living being in the universes possesses a tiny amount of it, which becomes stronger as the soul grows, and that when it dies it restarts, but the energy itself does not disappear, but is redirected to the creator god of its respective universe, causing it to increase its power.

In my first attempt to use this energy, I became 100% empowered, Sarasvi warned me that it was not advisable to use all of it in one trip, but I did not listen to her. I felt as if I had been injected with 5 liters of adrenaline, I felt strong, with the ability to do anything, I was unstoppable, until I passed out. I slept for a week, according to Sarasvi, I cannot use 100% of the energy in my current state, or else it is possible for me to burst from an overload.

It has happened before, novice gods without a mentor became so empowered that when they exploded it greatly affected nearby universes, extinguishing an abnormal amount of various species. That is why the practice was formed that, for each new generation of gods, there were to be "chief gods" to assist them in their apprenticeship. For, not all gods are born in the same universe, and someone must take care of them.

I kept practicing, trying to use only 10% instead of 100% so as not to explode and start doing my god work. It took me no more than 5 days to achieve it. Sarasvi showed an incredible surprise towards me and my training, she has informed me that my learning speed is unheard of, since what I have learned so far from her, usually takes years to other novice gods, she has told me that this was similar to when Lord Orion became a god, that maybe my approach will be similar to his.

But I doubt it, I feel that my path will be very different from Orion's, I feel innately a connection with the energy, as if I knew what to do. Today the system will explain me how to create my territory, and then create my universe, according to the system, I must create a kind of barrier, both to protect my universe and me, because according to them, to avoid more conflicts between gods, the Sphere created aberrations of these, as a kind of evil demon gods, called Nephilim, whose goal is to finish us.

This was not told to me by Orion, or he did not have time since this god "Kaltor" arrived, the memory of his aura still bothers me, not because he is stronger than me, but because he belittled me and Orion.

According to Sarasvi, Orion and Kaltor are from the same generation of Gods, and their approaches could not be more different. It was obvious that a rivalry would start between them, but this got worse as the years went by and no gods were born in Orion's universe. Kaltor used this to discredit him, commenting that he was such a defective god that in his universe no new divine beings were born. This caused the Orion faction to exclude him in general. Causing a kind of exile, I felt bad for him, but well what can you do.

-----

"the preparations for the creation of your territory are complete, my lord ####"

"For the seventieth time Sarasvi, just call me Zandor."

"Forgive me, my lord, but that was your mortal name, and as a being far above them, that name does not emphasize the great deeds you will be able to accomplish.

"All right, all right, when did you say I would get my name?"

"When you choose the civilization of your choice in your universe, and they pay tribute to you, praise you, and bow down to you, that is when you will be given a name."

"How ironic, the gods create the living beings, but they are the ones who give us a name at will. Now, let the good stuff begin.

"What you must do first is to concentrate your energy in a specific point, your hands are the catalyst. Once the energy is sufficiently concentrated, you must visualize a fence that demarcates your territory, the energy will do your will, thus creating your dominion.

"Remind me again what this domain is supposed to do?

"The Domain is where you will be able to create your Universe and be able to monitor it in case of any anomaly, it is a layer above your Universe that limits it and prevents it from expanding out of control. The place where you first met Mr. Orion was his domain. It is where your will is realized, it is where you are at the height of your power. It also functions as the first and last barrier in the event of a possible invasion, so I suggest you get started soon, as the Nephilim may try to hunt you down now that you are a wandering god."

"Okay, concentrate the energy, think of it as a hedge. Understood."

In simple words it sounded too easy, and for me it was. Sarasvi doesn't seem to realize that I have more control over the energy than when I initiated, there are gaps of time when Sarasvi goes offline to recalibrate (in previous chapters Orion mentioned that he was a prototype).

It is during these times that I tested some theories I had about divine energy, if I condense it in my hand and imagine any object, it will deform at the subatomic level to form itself into the desired object, and vice versa. When I imagine the fence that marks my territory, I feel the energy decreasing from my hands, which is normal according to Sarasvi.

According to my internal clock, I have been creating my domain for almost 2 days. One thing I also noticed is that I do not feel hungry or tired, but I still feel fatigue when I expel too much energy. I feel like I have bought a piece of land, only trillions of times larger.

"Congratulations, my lord, you managed to create your domain on your first try!!!"

"I did?"

Yes, sir, even I am surprised that you succeeded on your first attempt, usually novice gods need between 5 and 20 attempts".

I told you, Sarasvi, I'm a fast learner."

Yes, although that still doesn't explain how he did it on the first try, we haven't started classes yet to find out what new skills he has, hello why he needed a safe place first".

"Okay, okay, but I feel like this room, even though it's already my domain, I find it very empty, I wish I could decorate it".

I hadn't realized that I still had residual energy in my hands, and when I wanted this place to be more than just an empty plane, the energy did my bidding today, transforming the previously black space into what appeared to be an infinite meadow, its sky was not illuminated, but that changed immediately, forming a moon-like sphere that glowed in a bluish hue.

"Wow, what the hell just happened?" ????

I don't understand either, that shouldn't be possible, you just created your domain. You shouldn't have enough power to create ...... I have no idea what I am creating, my sensors tell me that this is not a world...it is not the void plane either.... It is as if it has exchanged non-existence in its domain with this meadow, and the light source is not a moon either, it is as if it has formed an image and is emitting light."

"Wait, you don't know either, I thought you knew everything?"

I have knowledge of the gods and many things as old as life itself, but what you just did is unprecedented in my memory bank. Lord Orion collected many writings from various gods, but there were also some who did not want to contribute to the cause. That is why I have gaps in my memory.

"And the fact that you are a prototype has nothing to do with it?"

"Hey, that's rude, even for you, a god."

"OK, sorry... how sensitive"

You know I can still hear you, right?

"Anyway, if this isn't just the work of energy, have you unconsciously discovered a new skill?"

"I doubt it very much"
