Chapter 7 - Chapter 7: Ryujin's Divine Ability

[Third Person POV]

After Ryujin left the eerie white world, only The God and his assistant Agar were present in the room.

"My lord why did you bow to a human?" Agar couldn't comprehend his lord's action. A superior being bowing his head in front of an ordinary human.

Agar was feeling many emotions at that time. " Agar, I want you to tell me what happened 300 years ago."

Agar wondered why his master had interrogated him on the subject. Without any hesitation Agar said" Three hundred years ago monsters started to appear because of dungeon break. Not only monsters, but elves ,dwarves,beast men, demons and many other species appeared."

"Only demons and monsters attacked humans while the other species were neutral. Human couldn't win against them. None of their weapons worked.

80% of their population were gone. If His Lordship had not helped them, they would have vanished."

The God blessed humans with .

Due to this human could use mana. They could either use it to create magic spells or use it to make their body stronger.

People would gain to fight while some even attained < Talent > for their ability.

After humans were able to use Mana's elves, dwarfs and beast-men began to help them fight the war against demons and monsters.

The battle still wasn't over, but humanity was revived. There was once again peace in society.

Agar asked " But my lord, why are we going down this old memory lane?"

The God was silent for a while. He closed his eyes and started speaking " I gave human to fight. Not every human received the to fight. some of their could be used to make potions, swords and other things"

"Then i gave them < Talent>. Could be obtained through my blessing or ability book. was different. Either you were born with it or you worked hard to acquire it. Though many humans never acquired it through their effort."

"They thought that it was never in their fate to acquire one. They were captives of their own destiny."

" So did you choose Ryujin because of his ?" Agar cut of God while he was speaking.

"You have grown quite the balls to cut me off while I am speaking."

"I am sorry my lord, but is certainly rare, but just because of this inclination to a human... I cannot understand it."

God smiled. Agar had never seen him smile like that. God said" Ryujin isn't just to erase thing ,it is somthing conpletely different and terrifying.It is so powerful that none of my attacks would even reach him unless he allowed it to happen. He only revealed it when he was 14 because of a certain incident."

" I didn't bow to him because of his . It is true attaining such power is rare. I bowed to him because I consider him my equal. In all my lifetime he is the only one in whom I have absolute faith in."

Agar couldn't believe his ears. "My lord, what is that so special about that human?"

"Neither do I know Agar. I didn't call Ryujin to ask him to save the world."

"Even without my saying so, he would do it."

"I only gave him the ring to help h-him on his journey. "

Agar looked at his master . God was crying.Today he had seen his master show emotions he had never seen before. God's eyes were filled with sorrow and pity.Seeing that Agar also sheds his tears.

"Even though I told him to save the world by bowing. I actually wanted to say "Thank you". If I were to bow before him, I would do it again without hesitation, because that is all I can do for him."

God, then mumbled to himself," Ryujin, when this is all over I will grant whatever wish you want, just be sure to rest well my

boy."

[Ryujin's POV]

I didn't wake up from my dream. I just sat on the sofa in my living room. The memory of God, bowing to me was still lingering in my mind.

Saving the world, huh! I could save myself, but saving the whole damn world was different. Most people in the world knew about me. After all, I have been just the third human being in the world with a .

There are even rumors that < Divine Ability> existed even before the great catastrophe as the power didn't need mana to activate. All it needed was the holder's faith and absolute will.

They thought my was to erase things from existence. That was only a portion of my power.

My actual was that I could control time. No, I couldn't control the clock of the universe.

My power had a range. Imagine a ball and then me being at the center of the ball . It was similar to that. I could use my within three meters from my body.

In that range I could control time. I could erase things from existence because of the theory that everything originated from nothing. I could turn the time in the blink of an eye and whatever entered my range would be send back in time to nothingness.

That is how I killed the orcs and was able to block attacks. It was the perfect defense and offense. I didn't need to charge my power that has been just a lie, I made to fool the world. Maybe because of this ability even God bowed to me.

Then you might ask "Then why did your hands burn when blocking Cerebretus attack."I let some of it through so I could fool Arthur. Of course, there was a lot of pain in the process.

The second reason was that if people knew about my true power the world would be in chaos. People would hunt me down, which I don't want.

The second use of this power was that I could use it to regenerate anything within

the ability's range. If my hand was cut off, I could go back or forward time when I did have a hand.

The pain would still exist. It was a cheat ability, but I couldn't call it a cheat because I created this technique and I was really proud of it.

could only be obtained when you have a perfect sense of something. When you understand something perfectly and then use your absoult will to call it.Then only a is born
