What does a normal guy do when he’s transported into the fantasy world of the novel he’s been reading? Easy—form a harem of goddesses, right? Yeah, I wish it were that simple. Instead, I’ve been tasked with defeating and surpassing the original protagonist of the story, and taking over all of his accomplishments. And what do I have to help me? A skill that lets me see other people’s stats and another that gives me potential. Yup, I’m screwed. Oh, and did I mention this world is like a version of Earth set in the middle ages where deities have descended? Olympians, Norse gods, the Shen, and the Egyptian Ennead—they’ve all formed kingdoms on Earth. And what’s their goal? To enter the Celestial Gate and claim its treasures, which are so valuable that even gods covet them. Too bad there are monsters inside that are the stuff of nightmares. Tough luck, right? But hey, forget all that for a second. Remember when I said something about goddesses? What’s a regular guy got to do to catch the attention of a goddess? Dear Host, Your Quest: Breed the Goddess of Wisdom and War, Athena. Yup, I’m definitely screwed. ## The story is set in an alternate Earth.

What kind of realm would you choose to live in after digitizing your mind? For Amun, that was a magical world where he could be free to learn until his end of days. What he got was to become the living god of a vast realm in an odd universe. A being who'd be born with the world. And later stripped of it all. A being of juxtaposition and contradictions. A sinner and a saint. A wise sage and a genius scientist. A loving creator and a baleful explorer. An elf and a devil, living in a world of might and magic. But all is not what it seems. Peace is fleeting. Figures loom in the light. Forms strafe through the trees. And one Amun is woefully ignorant to the ways of a realm so ripe for change. Yet he is one who cannot help but change it. So he devotes himself to forming the greatest guild the Mortal Plane has ever seen, intending to change his world and others for the better. And yet, somewhere along the line of his undying march, Amun evolved into the being all denizens of the Mortal Plane either revered; or feared.
