"Welcome~~~"
The man again happily announced as Fanel stood up, massaging his neck as he passed.
But what the hell happened? He was falling into the void and he already knew he was going to die. So why is he here and what was that system window like earlier?
" Hello"
Fanel jumped up as the man from earlier was behind him, patting him on the shoulder.
"Damn, you couldn't be more discreet. I almost had a stroke. And who the hell are you?"
Fanel screamed before calming down. He had to, especially since this place seemed strange to him. It looked like a throne room.
"Right…this is my castle and you are in my throne room"
The man spoke far too perky for Fanel as he took full measure of the situation.
"You saved me?"
The man lifted his fan, placing it in front of his face as his eyes appeared to study Fanel.
"Hmm hmmm indeed"
Fanel was not comfortable with his gaze and what was this nonchalant response? In short, it doesn't matter.
"Thank you for saving my life anyway"
Fanel saw a door in the distance and decided to leave, this guy is way too weird and…
He stopped abruptly.
"Wait…how did you guess what I was thinking earlier?"
He complained pointing at the man and he smiled.
"Ah, I thought I had made a mistake in my choice. But anyway…"
He punched his fan in the palm of his hand before teleporting to his throne much to Fanel's amazement.
"What are you? A hunter?"
The man chuckled.
"Me? A hunter? Certainly not."
A cup of tea and a teapot appeared beside him and a chair also appeared behind Fanel.
"Take a seat please, dear chosen one"
Fanel frowned before obeying.
"Why are you calling me like that?"
"Because that's what you are…have some tea"
A cup appeared next to Fanel with a hot drink inside and Fanel grabbed the cup.
The man on the other side started drinking his tea seeming to relish it and Fanel just followed suit.
"Ah it's still so good"
Not that the place was strange but Fanel was getting impatient.
"Well, let's cut to the chase. You have questions and guess what? I have all the answers that exist on earth"
The man announced a little too happy and Fanel felt a vein pulsing on his forehead.
"Oi, oi, let's calm down, I'm going to talk"
He still sipped his tea before speaking.
"What is the God hunter system and what do you think it is used for?"
Fanel scowled at the absurd question. Even civilians know what it's, so to ask him that question, a hunter, it's absurd.
"Haha, you are cruel dear chosen one"
"Stop calling me that, my name is Fanel"
"Very well chosen one Fanel… well if I asked you this question it is because I want to know why the system that I created became the shit that it is today"
Fanel frowned. How's the system he created?
"Ah let me introduce myself in due form. I am the creator of the God hunter system, call me Kamisama"
"It's a joke, isn't it? Where are the hidden cameras?"
Fanel stood up, seemingly as Kamisama held back from hitting him. A vein was already beating in his forehead and he was about to go wild.
"As I was saying, I created this system to allow humans, at least those the system chose to protect the weakest. The system gave them superhuman capacities enabling them to fight against demons and monsters that come out of the rifts"
Fanel sat down again ruminating that he loses nothing by listening to this madman.
Either way, he doesn't want to go back to that goddamn guild where the members tried to kill him.
He listened to Kamisama before chuckling mockingly.
"Powers allowing them to fight against the rifts? The good joke. And me in the lot? Was I a bug in the system?"
Fanel got angry as Kamisama put his fan in front of his face with his calculating eyes.
"My system is perfect and has no bugs. The powers assigned are established on basic human dispositions and the deep nature of the receiver. Your power indicates your true nature"
Fanel burst out laughing as his vexed yet ironic face twisted
"So it's true… I'm a weakling, garbage, and talentless for the fight… Haha"
Kamisama observed him behind his fan, his gaze still fixed and cold, nothing to do with his joker appearance.
"I watched you from the start, you know, dear chosen one. The system is never wrong and I know that my system knows how to distribute powers fairly...even if I admit that you have the weakest power in my system, " announced Kamisama with a mocking laugh.
"No you think so?" Fanel responded both incredulously and ironically.
Kamisama burst out laughing, swinging his legs in the air.
"No, that look, it's too funny"
"Glad I'm such a good clown in your eyes"
Kamisama calmed down before popping a system window in front of Fanel.
**How does he manage to do that?**
Fanel thought.
"I am a deity what more?".
Fanel jumped before frowning.
** In addition he reads minds… How lucky will I be to be in front of the creator of the God-hunter system?**
"Just a chance in a trillion"
Fanel sighed.
"It's uncomfortable to walk around in people's heads like that"
"Ah yes? I find that rather cool. Haha, isn't it that I'm cool?"
Fanel rolled his eyes, preferring to focus on the window in front of him.
" What is this?"
"Here we have all the abilities granted or to be granted to hunters and you can see below…yes far at the bottom yours in the last line hehe"
"Thank you, I noticed, no need to insist"
Fanel spoke flustered as he looked up at the top.
There were colors. Blue and green.
"The greens are for powers already assigned and the blues are pending."
"Why are the first hundred powers blue? The system didn't find receivers worthy enough?"
"Not that it didn't find them. Just that I blocked those powers"
Fanel looked up at Kamisama who had become more serious.
"The humans who have been blessed with these powers have become so arrogant. I dare not imagine if any of them had such divine power as these hundred…."
"He would have become a real tyrant"
" Indeed"
Fanel sighed before looking at Kamisama.
"Why am I here and especially why are you showing me this?"
Kamisama smiled before lifting his fan to the window.
"Because I have watched you, I think you are worthy of owning it"
Fanel frowned.
" What?"
"The God-hand"
Fanel immediately looked up in panic at the window having read the name of this power. When he found it, he found himself on the ground.
" You are laughing at me?"
"Nope"
Kamisama looked casual. Was he crazy or what? He could have given him the hundredth that he would already be the strongest among the hunters listed. But no, God's hand was not just any power.
If his power was the last, God's hand was the...
"Congratulations dear chosen one, you have just won the supreme power of the system, God's hand"
