"I'll need a couple of things men, money, and transportation."
I scratched my head with a sad look not knowing if I should even say something like this. To my friend. No to my accomplice.
"Sure I'll get those things but only the first one." He gave me a stern look and smiled.
"You'll need to make your own miracles with the men I give you. People will not worship you if you are incompetent and don't know how to do anything. You are the god of money, coin, currency, or gold. I'm being hard on you but the last two are things that are part of your distinction along with many other things so I'm sorry for being hard on you but figure it out I'm sure you'll come up with a miracle." He smiles at me with faith.
"I understand and I understand why you are being hard on me I need to learn the hard way. Get me the one thing you promised to me at the merchant guild. In like 20 minutes. Can be anyone but preferably poeple who know how to handle money and haggle but anyone will do" I turned my head and waved goodbye walking out. The last thing I heard from him was.
"Sure do your best I'm counting on you"
I walked to the merchant guild within this mysterious world. It defies everything we know about mana or magic today but it feels like we could have done it all along. I smile and take it in before hardening my expression. thinking to myself all the things we were going to do that's not fair for the heart.
I got to the merchant guild pretty quickly so I still had 15 minutes and instead of preparing I directed one of the poeple I scouted to do it for me. He was a broad and well-built man with a scar over one of his eyes. speaking of which was so white you would think he was blind in it while the other was a perfect warm rosemary. He wore a butler uniform. A white button shit, black blazer, and black pants. Whoever he didn't walk like one or talk like it. He was very casual but in my eyes everything he did was calculated and it made him a powerful ally. His name was Darrik and he's my ally and powerful right-hand man. well, only man for now.
I went to the back room and sat down. I contemplated what Mattew said with my hands over my eyes and my elbows over on the desk. "Make a miracle happen how am I going to do that"
That very thought made me chuckle with madness. I have to make a miracle happen with no magic at all. After I heard I had to make my own I've been researching ways and nothing prevailed instead of looking with magic. Enchanting my eyesight to peer into how it was circulating and why it invoked into the world I got nowhere so I decided to remove it entirely and invoke it with my soul.
I thought I was insane at first but when I looked around with none it caused me to have more questions related to it. Does magic come from within or around us? Are there really different forms? Some might say yes but why do I feel like that's wrong?
I've made no real progress but I feel like I've taken a step and maybe this adventure will help me.
5 minutes left I need to figure out transportation and money in that time. Money is more than just that it is a current that needs to cycle back and forth and a merchant guild is not really good for that after all it only gives not really takes unless deals take place from positioned poeple with lots of money or royalty but what if we could make it more then that.
"Dame it'll just do it on the fly."
As I said my frustrations out loud Darrik walked.
"Eh everything ready let's go also I know you don't want advice but I'm sure that'll work out"
He smiled "After all I don't think people could handle so much money besides you I can just feel it."
I smiled. "Na I'm sure we can handle it together" I walked out with him and seeing the 50 poeple I thought in my heart that this was going to be hard but let's have some fun all right.
"Well I'm sure everyone knows who I am but I'm going to introduce myself. I am the most selfish god the one who wants it all after all. The god of greed. The god of anything that holds value. Well, at least that's what I want to become so why don't you help me get me there. "After what I said people snickered a little a laughed many people thought and some even said the god of greed you can't be kidding that's a sin, not a god
I continued on after all they'll figure out something about me as they go on
"This is our first mission That I'm giving and in light of everyone's suggestion, I'm offering three seats to become sins. This is like the Death God's roundtable of warlords. same status"
Everyone looked at me with surprise
"Do you think you are up for it I can make it one if you think I'm more of a devil than what you thought after all I think money will make you more greedy than anything so might as well take it upon myself"
Everyone there cheered and throughout their previous state meant saying now that this person is kind of insane and I might as well strive for the best.
"Well since everyone's so happy let's get to work" I smiled greedily and licked my lips this is going to get fun.
