"Hehe, you guessed it~"
The goddess turned into a shy young girl in a second and continued, "Don't you humans have a saying? Don't put all your eggs in the same basket. This mission is very important. If we can't kill the Demon King, that world will be destroyed, and I will get into some trouble. Therefore, I chose elites from all walks of life to enter that world and become Bravehearts."
"Since not killing the Demon King will bring you trouble, why don't you do it yourself? As a goddess, you should have such an ability, right? I don't think it's a good choice to let others handle something so important."
Just as I thought. I'm not the only Braveheart.
However, I could quite understand. If I were the goddess, I wouldn't choose to complete it alone either.
Just as there is more than one way to carry out an assassination mission, options are essential.
Since this is the case, I have to be more careful when negotiating with the goddess.
"It's indeed not the best choice, but I have no choice. As a goddess, I can't easily interfere with the normal operation of other worlds. Otherwise, there will be even more trouble. Therefore, I can only rely on you Bravehearts."
The goddess had a helpless and aggrieved expression.
Great!
I obtained another important piece of information.
The goddess could not easily interfere with that world, which meant that I will most likely have more autonomy.
"Alright, I'll accept this request. However, since I'm going to fight the Demon King, if I only have the memories and skills from my previous life…"
"I understand. Of course, I won't let you go empty-handed. I'll help you in this aspect. You can choose four talents and bring them to the alternate world you want to go to."
The goddess waved her hand.
Countless gold, purple, blue, and white bars danced around me, so many that it was dizzying.
I sized up the words on the box. The names of various talents were engraved on it. Golden talents were the rarest, followed by purple. Blue and white talents were the most abundant. Clearly, this represented the rarity of talents.
"Among all the talents here, is there one that can save my life in any extreme situation? Just once."
I tried to seek some help from the goddess.
This was because there were too many talents in front of me. A rough estimate would be more than 20,000 of them. Moreover, they were jumping up, down, left, and right. It was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to take a closer look at each one.
After the President's betrayal, I now had a second chance. Naturally, I didn't want to repeat the mistakes of my previous life. Life-saving skills were what I wanted the most.
"Keep your life in any extreme situation…"
The goddess thought about it carefully and answered me seriously, "I don't think I have created such a talent, so I don't have it."
"I want such a talent. It doesn't matter even if it's a golden talent."
I made a request.
From my observations, such a talent shouldn't be too much.
Due to the fact that golden talents were the rarest and most eye-catching, I carefully observed them. Even hack-like talents such as [Full Element Affinity] existed inside, so it didn't seem too abnormal for one-time death exemption to be included.
"Hmm…"
"Is that difficult?"
Looking at the hesitant goddess, I didn't give up and asked one last time. My gaze was already lingering among the golden talents.
If such a talent wasn't available, I would choose one from among them.
After all, the opportunity to be reborn with memories was too rare. I wouldn't give it up so easily.
"Of course, there's no difficulty! I was just thinking if I should reward or punish the first human who made a request of me."
The goddess's sweet voice rang out. She rose elegantly from her throne and walked arrogantly to me. She placed her finger under my chin.
"Yes, now that I've thought about it, I'll give you a small reward. I'll give you the chance to see me again. You shall also get to pick your other talents each time I see you. Perhaps I'll give you another choice of golden talent if I'm in a good mood."
The goddess snapped her fingers, and the bars surrounding me disappeared. Only a golden light that slowly appeared flew toward my shadow.
"Each time?!"
I was shocked.
Because I couldn't guess the significance of the goddess's actions. What good would it do for her to meet a mortal like me?
I don't think there is any good. Maybe it's just for fun…
But to me, it was undoubtedly a huge advantage. I had another chance to choose a golden talent, even though it depended on her mood.
"That's right! I've treated you well more than once, haven't I? You don't have to ask how you can see me. It'll naturally happen when I'm willing to see you. However, I can give you a little hint. The longer you live in that world and reach a stage that can satisfy me, I'll summon you!"
The goddess beamed with joy, as if she had discovered something especially fun.
Pretty much what I was thinking.
Reaching a stage that satisfied her?
I seemed to recall a familiar story. In the novel I read, the protagonist had something called a system. As long as he completed the system's missions, he would receive all kinds of rewards.
If the system was renamed as goddess…
The situation would be exactly the same as what was happening now!
"If possible, I hope to be born into a wealthy family. I need to train my physique and abilities from a young age."
"Of course it won't be bad. In order to give you the strength of a Braveheart, I specially arranged an assassin family for you so that you can receive systematic training since childhood and no one will be surprised by your skills and abilities."
The goddess answered quickly and confidently.
"In that case, I have no other requests."
I was content.
I have the talent to protect my life at a critical moment and a wealthy family that could help me hone my assassination skills.
At the right age, I would have the same capabilities as I did in my previous life.
"Are you ready? You're going to reincarnate now. But, I have to remind you. In that world, you have a beautiful and gentle mother and a meticulous maid who will take care of you. You'd better not treat them with your attitude of this life. Such a cold face would easily scare people."
The goddess waved her hand with a kind reminder.
I watched my soul fly up and drift away from her until she was gone.
A gentle and beautiful mother, a meticulous maid. This was something I had never dreamed of in the previous world.
Don't show a cold expression when interacting with them.
What kind of expression should I use then?
Sigh~
All I can say is that I'll try my best not to scare them.
A world of swords and magic.
Here I come!
