Chapter 1
« So you're just going to accept that huh? »
« Well I just died,I'm in a white room which is very original by the way,I can't move and you're like all holy sooooo yeah.It's an honor to see god.»
« ............eeeeeeeeeehhhhhhhh!!!! »
God started changing until he looked like a very handsome man with long blonde hair;blue eyes,a chiseled jaw,high cheekbones and dressed in a white suit.
« That's lameeeee!You're supposed to not believe me then I'll do something awesome and you'll be like. »God changed again until he looked like nox's clone« Oh my me!! Get it because i'm God You're really god kyyyyyaaaaah!!!!!kyyyyyaaaaah!!!! »He was doing an impressive imitation of the painting The scream.
« .......Can I have my honor to meet you back please? »
God,back to his appearance,got teary eyed and really close to Nox in a pathetic attempt at puppy dog eyes.
« That's mean!You're so mean! »
« Can I go to heaven now?Actually you'll be there,so can i go to hell? »He asked this with a complete straight face,which made it worse it seems.
« Heeeeee! »God was now in the corner crying with a raining cloud above him.« You're so mean!Even though so many people pray to meet me,you insult me. »
« I feel that you should go apologize to them. »
« Waaaaaaaaah!I hate you! »Instantly god was on his knees next to Nox's chair,still crying« Ah!I'm sorry I didn't mean it!I like you!No!I love you!I'm sooooorryyyyyyy! »He then continued to cry.
« This is annoying. »Nox sighed « It's okay,I forgive you.Let's just move on please. »
« Good let's get to business. »God was now sitting back in his chair with his arms crossed.He would look truly impressive,if there wasn't a puddle of tears and snot on the floor.
« Tell me Nox,what do you think is supposed to happen now. »
« I go to heaven or hell? »
« That's one option,yes.You see there is 3 things that can happen when someone dies.
First is heaven or hell depending on your actions,let's call it karma to make it easier.Good karma,you go to heaven, bad karma you go to hell.
Second,you are reincarnated.You have good karma,your soul reincarnates into a good position like a rich kid or talented person.Bad karma,your soul reincarnates into an insect or a poor kid or something like that.

And finally there is the extremes,if your soul is truly corrupted by bad actions then it is destroyed,but if it is truly holy you can become an angel. »
« I see.And who chooses what happens?You? »
« Nope.The soul decides if it is reincarnated or goes to hell/heaven.Though normally it is done by angels.That's a part of the job,they have to wipe the memories of the ones that reincarnate too. »
« I see.Then why are you here for me? »Why wasn't an angel taking care of him?Was he special?He didn't really think so,sure he did a lot of good things (for himself) but nothing that deserved meeting God.
« .....You see i have created an infinite number of universes/realms/dimensions/worlds,whatever you want to call it.Yet this one is my favorite,because it was my first. »He suddenly blushed,put his hands on his cheeks and turned his head to the side« You never forget your first time... »
Nox nodded his head« I see.Can you go die please? »
« Anyway,the point is... »Though he was back to being serious,tears dropped like a waterfall from his eyes« This world and it's humans are really important to me.But they were doomed. »
« What!?Why? »Nox was startled and his eyes opened wide.
« As i said they were my first creation,as so they were the most flawed.In Fact humanity was going to be wiped out in a few centuries.But you changed that. »God's smile was truly radiant right now.
Nox was so confused.« Me?What did I do? »« Am I some sort of Jesus and I didn't know? »
Sigh« You see I tried to save this world lots of times,but every time made it worse.So i had no choice but to give up.But I did one last thing,I created a child,a genius that would save humanity.However........ he suffered the curse that humanity can somtime be.He gave up,he stole,he cheated and would have done a lot worse in the future,but you stopped that. »His sad expression turned happy all of a sudden.
« I still don't get it,I didn't stop any kid from commiting a crime.Hell the only kid I've really interacted with is........Oh oooooooooohhh. »It suddenly clicked« That kid »
God chuckled« Yes,that kid.You giving up your life for him and those last words of yours changed him.He will struggle,but he will study and he will discover a new energy and other very important discoveries.Thanks to those humanity will go to space and never die out. »

This was truly shocking for Nox,first he died by saving a kid,then he met God« Though that was dissapointing »« Waaaaaaa so mean! »While crying God found himself under a deathglare« I'm sorry,I'll shut up now. »SO as he was sayi...thinking before he got interrupted,he learned how dying worked,that humanity was going to be wiped out and finally that he saved the only person capable of saving it.
« Wait,now that I think about it,isn't me saving that kid worth a lot of good karma for me? »
For a second God just looked at him.Then he started laughing to the point that he was rolling on floor.
« What? »Nox could feel his eyebrow twitching as he grounded the word.
After a few moment God managed to get his laughter under control and got back to his chair.
« It's just......you truly are one of the most selfish being in the multiverse.Yet you do it in a bizzare way.
Nox,if it was just a lot of good karma,we wouldn't be talking.You see because Alex,the kid,did everything because of you and in your name,it means that you saved every human after you.And as i said humanity will never die,you saved an infinte number of people,so you got an infinte number of good karma. »
It took a few seconds for the information to process but when it did Nox's eyes got so wide God was kind of afraid.He suddenly jumped from his chair,not even paying attention to the fact that he could move,and started doing a dance of joy best not described.Let it be known that dancing was not one of Nox's talent.
« YESSSSSS!It worked out at the end.All that work was worth it,Now I can go to heaven and do what I want. »
« Well not really.... »
The dance suddenly stopped and faster than light Nox was gripping God's shoulders and glaring at him.
« You better not try to screw me over or I WILL make you suffer! »
« Scaryyyyy even though I'm god. »« Nononono you misunderstood.What is going to happen is so much better than going to heaven. »God looked so prideful while declaring that,he even puffed out his chest.Though he was still shacking and sweating from being scared.
« Explain!now! »This glare was almost an ultimate secret move now.Anyone but God would have probably died if exposed to it.Though Nox was back at his chair.
« Sir Yes Sir! »« Shit it came out automatically even though i never did this before. »« You see good karma,or what we called good karma,is more then just a spiritual value,it's a power.And this power has to be transformed.Normally it's used in the process of reincarnation or in the ascension to heaven. »
« I see,then what do I do?And what about bad karma? »He was curious after all if bad karma was power too,it would be unfair,it is after all easier to be mean than kind most of the time.
« Bad karma is the opposite,it's more like a parasite eating at the soul.You need good karma to ''repair'' your soul.You get that in your next life or by paying for your crimes in hell.Like I said,too much bad karma and the soul gets destroyed.I didn't say that we destroy it because it's done naturally.Anyway for you I will do something truly ''awesome''.I will convert that power in an abilty and send you into a perfect dimension for you,also I will let keep you memories.This has happened before,though not on this scale. »
« Wow that's.....thanks.What's the ability then?Don't tell me about the dimension,i want it to be a surprise. »He could be childish sometimes.
« Hahaha.You see the power is the one everyone wants. »Nox could somehow hear a drumroll in the background.« Reality control!Or the power to have all the powers and be OP!To be honest this power is going to make you number two in the multiverse,just after me.Though the difference between you and me will still be infinite. »
He looked reeeeeally smug,but honestly Nox was too busy dancing again to notice.
God waited for him to calm down(it took 20 minutes,he was really excited),to continue.
« Now for the dimension,I will only say these two words : classic xianxia »
Cue dance of joy again.
« You should really stop doing that,you're kinda weird you know. »
« I DON'T WANT TO HEAR THAT FROM YOU! »
