Chapter 8: God is Good (3)
「…Are you serious?」
‘Why? What’s wrong with it? I don’t have any grandiose goals like those great men you mentioned. I reincarnated for this life, after all.’
When I met God, I prayed earnestly.
I wanted to be reborn but as someone with good looks, big dick energy, and tall height.
And my wish came true.
It is time to fulfill that wish.
「I see. Then we will set your mission according to your goal. Ah, come to think of it, there was another person like you among the past players. He was an interesting guy.」
‘Who?’
「Adventurer Giocomo Casanova of Italy, Venice.」
‘Casanova? The flirtatious Casanova? He was a player, too?’
「Yes, there are a lot of players chosen by God. Of course, their identity as a chosen player isn’t revealed to the world.」
Today, I discovered a surprising fact.
Many of the great men and women of this world that had accomplished miraculous feats were actually players blessed by God.
‘By the way, what is a mission?’
「A mission is a task that needs to be solved. Some players call it a quest.」
‘So it’s like an assignment? Or work…?’
「No. It’s a bit different from that. There is no harm in not completing the mission. However, if you complete the mission, you will be rewarded accordingly.」
I nodded.
「The rewards can be divided into skills and items.」
‘Skills? Items? So it’s like a gaming system.’
「That is correct. The inventor of RPG games was actually a player, and he borrowed the idea using this system.」
Plagiarism.
‘Wow! That’s awesome! Can you tell me more about skills?’
「Of course. For example, the “information window” skill allows you to view your target’s personal information with the screen on your smartwatch.」
‘What do you mean by personal information? Is it something like a census?’
「No. In the personal information, not only will your target’s name and age appear, but it will also show how they see you, their sexual desires, and additional detailed tips.」
‘That’s amazing… isn’t it like a superpower? No, it’s like mind-reading… is that even possible?’
What I had been told surprised me.
If I complete a random mission, I could get special skills or points to use.
Items, in particular, are applicable to the real world such as better vision, fatigue recovery pills (like 8 hours of sleep in under an hour), or even energy enhancers comparable to Viagra.
‘This is great. Where can I buy those items?’
「If you press the crown protruding next to the side, the display screen will switch to the market window. It’s similar to online shopping. You can use your accumulated points to purchase items there.」
‘But who will bring that stuff? Will it fall from the sky?’
I suddenly recalled the scene of the Grim Reaper pulling things out of thin air.
「No. There’s a window set up in this house connecting to the heavenly world. The default setting is located at the top drawer of the computer desk. The settings can be changed at any time.」
I sprinted towards the computer desk and opened the drawer. It was empty because I hadn’t purchased anything yet. It looked like an ordinary drawer at first glance, but as I had already borne witness to strange things in the underworld, I had no choice but to believe it.
Thereafter, I looked at the list of things in the market for a while. The descriptions of the many items amazed me.
For example, an item called “Goblin Battle”, which can be purchased for 5,000 points, is a tool that turns people into ghosts. Having been a ghost once, this would be a convenient use.
There was also the “Coin of Truth” which is worth 6,500 points. It’s a coin that determines the validity of a question asked by tossing it in the air. This could be useful if used properly.
‘In a nutshell, if I complete missions, I would be able to get skills or accumulate points to buy items? And the goods will be delivered into that drawer?’
「Yes. That is correct.」
Oh…
God bless you to have honored me with an amazing smartwatch helper.
God is good!
God is great!
