Swallowing The Heavens And Earth - Chapter 1 Meeting The God
“What are your three wishes?”
“Errr..”
Allen looked at the old man before him with a strange look. He recalled that when he stepped out of the internet cafe, he immediately blanked out for some unknown yet strange reasons.
And now, he found himself facing this insane old man proclaiming himself as the ‘God’ of the cosmos or whatsoever. Allen continued to stare at the old man with a strange look within his handsome face. He looked like as if he had eaten dog crap that can be found everywhere in the streets.
“Let’s be real here old man. How do I get home?”
Allen asked with a forced tone while looking at the old man with a still ‘strange look’ within his face. If possible, he wouldn’t even talk to this insane old man that seemed to still have his chuunibyou disease. But, he needed to ask and swallow his pride because of the current situation.
“You don’t believe me?”
“Yeah..”
“…”
The old man suddenly stood up from his meditation seating posture which made Allen look at him in surprise. He slowly approached Allen in an unhurried way.
“What are you going to do, old man?”
Allen looked at him with cautiousness within his pair of deep black eyes. In case of emergency, he already mentally prepared himself to step back and run away from this old man. He even did forcefully suppressed the brewing fart within his ass since he thought that using his fart might be a great way of distracting the old man.
“Hehe”
The old man laughed mischievously which made Allen feel a chill crawl within his spine. His pair of eyes flashed in anxiousness and nervousness. He readied himself for any unexpected things that might happen.
Soon, the old man faced Allen with only a meter distancing themselves. He grinned in anticipation as his old pair of eyes brightened which Allen noticed.
“What are yo-”
Before Allen even had the chance to ask the old man before him, the old man suddenly floated with only a cm distancing himself from the floor. Allen blanked out for a while as the old man looked at him with a smirk within his old face.
After a while, Allen found himself regaining his rationality as he looked at the old man in fear. He felt the brewing fear within his heart that seemed to be getting stronger in each time he thought of the fact that the old man can float.
“Now..”
“W-wait!”
“Hmm.. What?”
“I believe you now!”
Hearing his words, the old man floated down and went back to his meditation posture. Allen approached him while suppressing the fear within his heart. He did his best to hide his nervousness and anxiousness while asking the old man.
“Where am I?”
“You’re in my home”
“Where is your home?”
“My home is in my home”
“What?”
“What?”
The old man and Allen looked at each other with stunned looks within their face. If anyone saw this pair of old man and young man, they would immediately think that they’re hilarious.
“So, what happened to me?”
“Didn’t I already explained that to you? I already told you that you died because of me, right?”
“But, still…”
“There’s no ‘buts’, you really died.. Just accept that fact and move on”
“…”
“What.. you have any problem?”
“Umm.. No?”
“I’m the almighty god. If not by the fact that it was my fault that you died, I wouldn’t even cared about your well-being and just ignore you!”
“Okay. Okay. You’re a really benevolent god..”
“Why do it seems that you’re forcing yourself while saying that?”
“No.. It’s the truth, right? Benevolent god..”
“At least, you know what’s good for you..”
Allen sighed in relief that the old man didn’t attacked him or something. Thou, he still can’t believe that this old man is the God that created everything in existence. After all, he only saw the old man float or something before him. He even suspected that maybe some dark organizations abducted him and put him in some kind of hypnosis stuff.
“I would like to inform you that I’ll transmigrate your body to a world called Primal Universe.”
Allen was thinking of some strategies to fool this old man but immediately stopped his contemplation moment and focused at the words of the old man. Allen recalled a novel whereas the strong reigns among the weak.
“Is that somehow related to Against the Gods? Oh. This novel is written by Mars Gravity in great difficulty and stabilized his position as one of the most popular author. So. Are they somehow related?”
“Well.. Yeah..”
“…”
Allen raised his chin while contemplating at the fact that this old man confirmed his suspicions. Many questions popped out of his head but he immediately dismissed those questions. He looked at the old man before him with interest.
“Then, old man.. What about my wish?”
“Oh.. You asked so many questions to the point that I got bored.. So, I’m only giving you one wish for your adventure within that world…”
“What?”
Allen was shocked because of the old man’s statement to the point that he might vomit blood on the spot. He suddenly realized that this old man has a weird temperament to the point that Allen looked at the old man with an annoyed expression.
He realized that if he maybe asked one more question, this old man might stripped him of his rights for his one and only wish. He forcefully stopped his twitching lips as he gradually calmed down and faced the old man.
“My one and only wish is..”
“Mm?”
“Give me all of the Heavenly Profound Treasures!”
“Suit yourself..”
The old man replied with a bored tone as he waved his hands. Allen felt 7 pieces attach to his body or rather soul. He felt something changed within him but cannot put his fingers on it.
“Go to that place now!”
The old man said with excitement as he waved his hands. A portal filled with darkness suddenly appeared besides them. The old man felt excited that this young man before him would finally go away.
“Okay..”
Allen slowly approached the portal with a smile within his face. He used his left foot to step within the portal. However, he suddenly turned around and looked at the old man with a big smile within his face.
The old man can’t help but look at Allen with a questioning look. He wondered why this mere mortal is looking at him with a big smile plastered within his face.
He saw Allen slowly raise his right hand in which captured the old man’s utmost attention. Allen’s middle finger within his right hand suddenly stood up, seemingly ready to pierce the nine heavens!
The old man stood up in rage and anger as he heard Allen’s soft yet menacing voice with an angry gleam within his eyes while vanishing.
“Fuck you, old man!”
