Chapter 21 - A second chance [2]

Ruin stood stock still trying to figure out what he just heard. A litany of questions flooded his head as he tried making two and two of the situation. "I thought this would happen," she muttered casting a gentle glow that seemed to wash over Ruin, easing the turmoil in his mind. "Before you drive yourself crazy with your questions, let me explain further," she said to ruin as she explained that he was not supposed to be in that dungeon he was killed in and such he was given a second chance."But what about.." Ruin tried asking but was cut short by the goddess," The woman you were with, Homura was it?" she said as if she had read his mind," all you have to now is that she didn't get a chance like this but to explain further I myself am not sure why." 

Ruin stood in silence for a while as he tried digesting all he had just heard as tears unconsciously streamed down his face." No! Homura should be the one getting this second chance, all I did was drag her down, she even sacrificed her life trying to save me!" Ruin shouted out in anguish as he collapsed on the ground,"I'm sorry, I know I look pathetic right now and a god like you probably couldn't understand but it hurts so much I mean I didn't even know her that long let alone even knowing her second name or anything about her but still," Ruin sniveled as he stuttered before bawling his eyes out.

The goddess looked at Ruin with a curious look before she cast a bright light towards Ruin which rendered him unconscious."What happened," Ruin asked the goddess as he came to but when he saw her expression he immediately regretted his decision, "You have some nerve, making a goddess such as myself to wait for such an insignificant mortal," she vented out in anger. Ruin immediately started apologizing as he wondered why she was so angry and she was the one who made him fall unconscious.

"Whatever, we got more important matters to discuss such as what your second chance entails," she said cryptically as she looked at ruin. Ruin intrigued urged her to continue on as he to wondered what this second chance was. "It's pretty simple really, you are just getting a second chance in life, getting sent to another Realm of your choosing." Ruin failed to hide his excitement as he was almost shaking from it,"Wait you mean it, do I get to have supercool powers and stuff?" he asked . "Obviously, we will give you ample support in your abilities department," she answered sending Ruin into a stupor. "Wait, so even if I want a harem of girls who would do whatever I want?" Ruin asked with great determination. "You disgust me, but yes," she answered with a look of disdain but Ruin did not care as he started jumping around in happiness.

"Well what are we waiting for lets get to it!" Ruin shouted out. The goddess shook her head in disappointment as looked at Ruin then led him to a place with a magic circle inscribed on the ground, she urged him to the center and to stay still."Goodbye now brutish human," she said as she channeled energy into the circle which started shining with a brilliant light which started to encompass Ruin. "Wait! I can't go in peace without knowing the name of the beautiful goddess who helped me out, can I?" Ruin shouted out before the light fully covered him and the for the first time since their encounter she smiled as she answered," It's Zayd," as the light covered him fully.
