[EVERY MULTIVERSE NEEDS GOVERNING TO REFRAIN FROM EXPANDING AND BREAKING OUT OF REACH OR STAYING VOID WITHOUT LIFE.]
"In other words. I should play God here. "
[INDEED. YOU NEED TO CREATE NEW WORLDS AND NEW LIFE. BIRTH A SYSTEM AND OTHER THINGS.]
"Okay, let's get started." I sprang excitedly. Finally, something interesting to do. My boring life had come to an end and now I had a new exciting one.
I could already feel that if this was a prank or some company guinea pigging me for their new still untested VR game or something like that I wouldn't care now.
"I mean for Godsake, sorry, for me's sake I get to play God. Why not?"
[NOT YET]
"Huh"
[REMEMBER I SAID WE LACK DIVINITY.]
"Alright. This is where I ask what this divinity is exactly?"
[WE, ARE DIVINITY. HUMANS HAVE SOULS, DEITIES HAVE SPIRITS, AND DEMIGODS HAVE SOULS AND DIVINITIES WITH ONE REDUCING WHILE TBE OTHER INCREASES. BUT GODS ONLY HAVE DIVINITY. ]
[BUT, GOD'S DIVINITIES ARE LIKE FUELS THAT ARE BURNED WHEN THE ACT. THE MORE ACTION THEY TAKE THE MORE DIVINITY THEY USE. IN OTHER WORDS, THEIR EVERY MOVE IS MADE WITH THEIR LIFE ON A METER]
"You're saying basically that even Gods die."
[YES AND NO. OUR FORMS DISSIPATE TO NOTHING BUT REFORM. DIVINITY IS ENERGY AND ENERGY CAN NEITHER BE DESTROYED NOR CREATED. JUST LIKE YOU WERE REMADE FROM THE FLAMES OF A FORMING MULTIVERSE AND A HUMAN SOUL. SO ALSO ARE GODS REMADE.]
[GODS REMAIN GODS. THEY DIE AND DISSIPATE THEN ARE REFORMED AS A NEW BEING. BASICALLY THEIR OWN PERSONAL CYCLE OF LIFE AND DEATH WITHOUT REMEMBERING THEIR PAST GODLIKE LIVES]
"Well that sucks"
[INDEED. WHICH IS WHY YOU NEED TO ALWAYS KEEP A CHECK ON YOUR DIVINITY. THAT'S WHAT I'M HERE FOR, FORTUNATELY]
"Okay. But apart from using up divinity what other ways are there for Gods to die."
[ALL REVOLVE AROUND THE SAME LOSS OF DIVINITY. LOSING IT TO ANOTHER GOD. BLEEDING OUT DIVINITY AND WELL GETTING YOUR DIVINITY MATRIX CRUSHED.]
"Matrix what's that?"
[IT'S LIKE MANA CORES FOR BEASTS IN THOSE WEB NOVELS WE READ. ]
"Oh. Okay. So don't use up divinity and don't die to other Gods."
[BLEEDING OUT WOULD...]
[...]
"What?. what's wrong?"
[WHAT DID WE DO?]
"Huh. How?"
[OUR BLOOD. WE MADE A DIFFERENT BLOOD FOR US]
[BLUE BLOOD]
"Is that good or bad?"I asked getting worried.
[GOOD. AND BAD. WE CAN BLEED OUT WITHOUT WORRYING ABOUT LOSING DIVINITY BUT WE'D STILL NEED TO HEAL AS THE BLOOD IS STILL IMPORTANT TO US. BAD CAUSE OTHER GODS WOULD WANT YOUR TRAITS. THEY'D WANT TO KNOW HOW YOU MADE YOURSELF.]
[STILL, IT WON'T MATTER AS LONG AS YOU GET STRONGER AND HAVE NO NEED TO WORRY ABOUT LESSER GODS. ALL FATHERS WOULD POSE A THREAT STILL BUT IT WOULD BE BETTER THAN BEING WEAK TO ALL GODS.]
" Wait. All fathers? " I was slowly getting more confused. This was a lot of info dump and I was getting glad this part of me was around to access this all. I doubted I would have known about most of this.
[LET'S BOTHER ABOUT SOMETHINGS NOW. I'LL EXPLAIN EVERYTHING LATER. FOR NOW, YOU SHOULD KNOW YOUR BLOOD UNLIKE OTHER GODS IS BLUE. HUMAN BLOOD IS RED AND IS CALLED SOUL BLOOD AS SUCH, DEITIES TAKE ON OTHER REALM FORMS TO AVOID BLEEDING. GODS HAVE ICHOR, GOLD BLOOD THAT CARRIED DIVINITY. OURS WE ALREADY CALLED DAMAS. ]
[WHILE OUR BLOOD IS STILL UNCLEAR ON ITS USES WE KNOW ALREADY IT HAS HEALING PROPERTIES AS THAT IS ONE OF THE THINGS YOU IMAGINED IT FOR. IN ANY CASE, YOU WON'T LOSE DIVINITY AND CAN HEAL WITH IT.]
I smiled widely at the words before looking around.
"So what now. If I can't create life because of divinity how do I get divinity?"
[YOU FARM IT. ]
"There's a farm for divinity?"
[...]
[NOT EXACTLY. YOU FARM IT FROM HUMANS AND OTHER BEINGS NOT IN THE GOD RANKS]
[WHIEL.THERE ARE MANY WAYS TO GET DIVINITY FASTER, THE ONLY OPEN METHOD RIGHT NOW IS DOING IT YOURSELF. GODS GET DIVINITY FROM FAITH, PRAYER, AND BELIEF. HOPE TO COUNTS BUT GETTING A RACE OR BEING TO NEED YOU GRANTS YOU THAT]
"Okay. Okay. But like you said there's nothing here. Where could I find living beings to farm faith from?"
[YOU'D NEED TO ANOTHER MULTIVERSE. ONE ALREADY TEEMING WITH LIFE. MIND YOU THOUGH. OUR TRUE FORM CAN'T GO WITH US. YOU CAN ONLY TAKE THE AVATAR BODY. BEFORE YOU ASK WHY I'LL ONLY SAY THAT GODS HAVE A THING ABOUT LOSING BELIEVERS AFTER ALL DIVINITY IS NEEDED. ]
"Can I cross over into another multiverse? Wait if I run into a god what then.?"
[OBVIOUSLY, YOU KILL THEM OR DIE INSTEAD]
Realizing I was asking too many questions I decided to leave it there.
"Create another form" I stated.

[AVATAR FORM CREATED ]
I watched as the scene replayed. My divinity flows out of me and into the holographic form and then solidifies into something tangible.
This time I felt something else. A weakness within me. Like I drained blood from my body. It wasn't enough to make me sluggish, or anything. But still, I felt it.
"Can I use divinity within the avatar?"
[YES. BUT SINCE IT'S A FAR WEAKER FORM IT WOULD ONLY BE ABLE TO PULL OUT 1% OF YOUR TOTAL ABILITIES. WHEN ACTIVATING DIVINITY IT'LL INCREASE THE POTENCY OF ITS ABILITIES USE.]
"Alright. Transfer to Avatar" I stated.
[DIVINITY AWAKENED IN AVATAR FORM]
[CONSCIOUSNESS TRANSFERRING]
[1%...5%..20%...50%...
I felt my mind slowly faze and then blur.
[...70%...80%...90%...95%...99%..100%]
[TRANSFER COMPLETE]
The view in front of me changed as I blinked and then I felt terror and reverence wash through me as I stared at myself.
Well my God, form. In my avatar, I could note the difference between my two forms. While the measurements had stated my god form to be 7ft. It had appeared out in godlike measurement.
My avatar at 6ft for human standards was barely up to my True Form's abdomen. I gulped at the sheer dominance of my own body.
"Okay. That's cool. Uhm...I can't keep referring to you as voice so I'll call you, wait what's my name now? Do I change or use my old name?"
[WE CAN DO WHATEVER WE WANT. SLIGHTLY]
I chuckled at the addition knowing what my voice meant. Thinking about it I nodded and decided. It wouldn't be complete without a panel to view myself.
If I needed to see my growth but in true form and avatar or would be helpful too.
"Create a panel and list out everything about me, us that would be helpful to determine our growth "
