《The Stupid God who tries to get better》Chapter 12- First step towards becoming a god again.
Advertisement
As soon as I went in I saw Brook at his table sitting at his desk. His assistant was standing to his side and handing over documents to him. There was also another guy in the room.
A small kid probably around 13 years old for human age. He had brown hair and dark eyes. He looked like a energetic kid who is always playing around. He had an unexplainable aura around him but I wasn't able to tell what it was.
Slam!-
I walked up to the table and slammed both my hands on it.
“Brook, now can you tell me why you wanted me to come here.”
Brook finally looked away from his papers and looked at me.
“Well~ I want you to find the witch as soon as possible and for that you need the demigod’s trust. It just seems more like child’s play to me. If you want the best demigods to help you complete whatever task you have come to do, you need to do one task that they offered you to do. The task will be finding the new recruit and bringing the new demigod to the palace again.”
All that info dumping of the past few days confused me. I am a God a 'God’, and I have to do stupid things because my bald father sent me here. I don't know what I have to do and I was even stripped off my powers.
“Ok ….. so I need to find this demigod and bring it back to the paradise, but where do I find it and when am I supposed to find it and how will I find it??”
“Well for starters, stop calling the demigod 'it’. I called you here to precisely answer all those questions of yours.
As you know Mooyoon has three major continents but they are separated from each other by sea.
The demigod’s paradise is a separate dimension that isn't on any continent but it still exists on Mooyoon. It is very difficult to understand the mechanism of time and space so I won't be telling you about it.
We have different teleportation channels from the palace to the main cities of the three continents. The smallest continent- Arogen is the place where you have to go to.
In the vast expanse of Arogen there is a Famous city called- Mallipuram and we have a teleportation channel in Mallipuram. I want you and this other kid go to this place and find the demigod and come back to Mallipuram so you can be teleported back to the palace……..”
Snore~ Snore~
“............”
Snore~ Snore~
“Lightning bolt!”
“Aaaaaaahhhh!!”
I woke up with a start! Wtf?! I just slept for sometime, you didn't have to electrocute me!!
“I didn't sleep last night alright! And your long speech was too boring!”
As I said that I saw Brooks hand go up and point towards me, it gave off ominous purple lightning sparks. Coupled with that ominous smile on his face I felt that I would get burnt to a crisp this time if he shoots again.

“Alright ! Alright I'll listen properly this time and I won't doze off!”
The sparks went off with Brook’s idiotic smile and he finally kept his hand down.
“Well since you want to catch up on sleep so much, I just give a brief summary- You have to go to Mallipuram and get a demigod to the palace. The demigod might be within a 200 km radius and it's your job to find the demigod-”
“Hold on! I have to find a person within 200 km radius?! Isn’t it just like finding a needle in a haystack?!”
“Let me finish- you'll also get a search tool which basically tells you the location of the demigod when it is in 50 km radius.”
“Ok, but it'll still be hassle. I think I can do it! I'll be going back to my room now.”
I turned back to entrance and started walking out of this place.
Finally I can sleep without any troubles~
But Brook wouldn't let me stay peacefully now, would he?
Just as I was about to go, Brook got up and caught my shoulder with his hand.
“Urk! What is it now?”
“I forgot to introduce you to someone.”
“What?”
He looked at the small child who looked about thirteen and had been playing with his cards in his hands all this time.
“Theo, come on over.”
The small guy looked up and ran towards us.
“Hello! My name is Theodore! I hope to have a safe journey with the great lord.”
Huh? What's this pipsqueak talking about?
“Benza this is Theodore, he is also a demigod and he is quite a pure blood. Almost ten percent of his blood is divine blood. He is a new recruit as well and will be tagging along with you for assistance.
Every new recruit has to go out on a mission after a certain level of training. This is the tradition of the camp and this will be his first mission.”
“Ehhh? But why do I have to take care of this brat? I can't bring him along! It'll just be a burden!”
Brook looked at me strangely- “ No it's more like you are the burden. He has some amount of training and divine blood in him while you can't shoot an arrow when you are supposed to be the God of archery.”
Every word of his was like a sword that stabbed into my chest. Why? Why have I become so weak?
“Even so I can't bring a kid along!”
“Just shut up and do as I say, it's more like I am sending a bodyguard but you don't want it.”
“Alright fine!” Although I don't want to admit it he is right now. I don't have my powers but once I get them back I'll make sure to demote Brook to become a sweeper at the demigod’s palace!

“Ok I am going back to my room now.”
I was so tired that I just wanted to sleep. But the hand with which Brook was catching my shoulder got tighter.
“Not so fast. Don't you want to get out of that body? It’s so bad looking plus it doesn't even have any powers and on top of that it has a lot of 'inconveniences’ that Gods don't have.”
My head was spinning right now but heart was beating faster.
“You're right!”
“So don't you think you should start on your first step on finishing you mission as fast as you can?”
“You're right!”
“Don't you want to take revenge on all those who wronged you when you get back your powers?”
“You're right!” especially you and that bald idiot!
“Don't you want to sit back and relax and not be worrying about some mission you have to do all the time?”
“You're right!”
“So why don't you leave to complete the mission today itself.”
“You're right!... Wait, what?”
Before I could say anything more, Brook’s servant or something(Marsh) came up to me and tied a backpack to my back.
“It's got all the necessary items for survival and it's also got some cash so use it well.”
After saying that Brook suddenly disappeared and appeared in front of me and Theodore.
“ “ Waaah!!”” Both me and Theodore shouted continuously before my vision blurred and I was in a dark room the by the time my vision returned.
“What the fuck! Can't you do something nicely?”
I knew Brook could travel fast but I couldn't right now! Fuck! And this body isn't even suitable for travelling so fast.
My head which was already spinning started spinning more and I felt that I would vomit at any second.
Just when I thought it couldn't get worse, I felt a sharp pain from my buttocks which flung me off from the ground and into the air.
“Ouch! Fuck!”
“Ouch!”
Theodore’s voice also came into my ears. It seems that I was not the only one who got kicked in the ass. I felt a little closer to him now.
My vision blurred again before I was on a concrete street.
Thud- Thud-
Two noises were heard as I fell onto the concrete street with Theodore next to me catching his bum.
As for me? I couldn't bother about the pain in my bum because I couldn't control the nausea anymore.
Blurg! Blurg!
The delicious stuff I had for breakfast came out from my mouth and splattered everywhere on the concrete. After a long time of throwing up I finally stabilized myself and looked at my surroundings.
There were people everywhere and many of them were looking at me weirdly. Theodore was patting my back to help me feel better. He's a good kid!
Honk! Honk!
There were vehicles similar to the underworld car, only they looked much better than the underworld car.
I looked towards the sky with tears threatening to fall out. Why? What had I done for such injustice?
“BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK!!!!!!” I swear I'll shove a fucking steel rod into his @*s!
I got up and searched the bag that the servant had tied on to me. I found a water bottle in it. Oh! At Least there's some water in it.
I rinsed my mouth and kept the bottle back into the bag while people were still looking at me weirdly.
Next I took out the search tool which looked like a compass.
“Let's go find that demigod kid!”
Theodore who was next to me grinned.
“Yeah!”
Brook-
“Sir don't you think that was a little harsh?”
“ No Marsh he deserves it besides he has Theodore with him so it should be fine.”
I, Brook was back in my office checking up on some documents after kicking those two out.
I’m sure Benza would be cursing me right now. It was pretty tough convincing that idiot to do what I wanted and finally I am free of headaches or so I thought-
Zooooom!-
Crash!
The windows of my office broke and a rocket like object was stuck on my desk giving off smoke after destroying all the papers that were around it.
“Marsh? There was nothing important in those papers was there?”
“I-i don't think so sir.”
Clearly Marsh was more shocked that I was being more far away from the impact.
“More importantly what is this sir?”
“This? This is Nova messenger. A kind of tool used by Gods for sending messages to people when it's a top secret. Although I don't think it is quite secretive, it does keep the message inside safe.”
The mini red rocket that was stuck onto my bench suddenly split into two parts and a paper came out of it slowly floating in the air.
“But sir, why would a God send us a message right now and that too in secrecy?”
“That is what I'm worried about as well.”
I grabbed the paper which was rolled and opened it.-
From Gaya,
Take good care of my child or I will destroy your puny demigod’s palace into a place of rubbles.
I felt another storm brewing as my headaches had a plus one on them.
“Marsh I think I need another coffee. Oh, and with 20 spoons of sugar this time.”

Fighting to be Kind in a Cultivation World
Aren't you tired of the typical cultivation story, where an isekai'd person comes into the world and becomes a brutal or selfish person? I know I am. So instead of being fully changed by the world, I want this protagonist to stick to their beliefs and help to change the world (and people) for the better. There will still be main character development and tests of those beliefs, but I want them to maintain that aspect. Brief Synopsis:American is thrown into a typical Xuanhuan cultivation world where the masses of the people are typically sacrificed for the abilities of the few. This is meant to be an alternate take on how protagonists approach these worlds. Main character comes into the world w/ scanning, healing, and monster taming abilities. The release schedule will begin on Dec 1st. The schedule is 2 chapters/week (Tue & Fri) at 11pm. Please like, comment, and follow, as that helps me to gauge interest in the series. Final note: I notice that many cultivation novels treat abuse or sexual assault as a throwaway tool to set a stage. I think the way it is normally done is both lazy and a disrespectful to victims. If you have any suggestions on how I can improve the way I've done it in this series, please let me know. I want to do this the right way. P.S. *Nudge, nudge* If you are looking for a sneak peek of up to 16 chapters ahead, check out my Patreon. :D
