Against The Other Gods 1 Good Deed Always Paid Off

Takagi : what is this, I can't feel anything, I can't feel my hands and my feet, and I can't even feel my head.

Takagi : h.e.l.loooo!! Is there anybody here ? Wait, my voice didn't even come out. What happen to me.

Blank white, the only thing Takagi can see is only a vast blank white s.p.a.ce all around with no end, no sound, no smell, nothing at all.

Takagi : why I am here, I remember that I just walking my way back from my work while reading light novel using my phone and then... and then what... I can't remember anything after that.

Takagi : wait a minute... am I dead ? B-but what happened... am I really dead ? So is this place is afterlife ? But does it even count off as dead even when I am not even remember that I'm dead or what was the cause of my death is.

He keep talking to himself trying to recall his memory, trying to remember all the things he can remember, every litlle bit memory of his life.

All the memory of his life played like a scene in a movie, bit by bit all his experiences in his life, every regrets in his life, every happiness, joy, sadness, disappointment, showed before his eyes.

Second after second, turn into minutes, hours, days, months, and then years after years. All of his 30 more years of his life flashed by.

He can't sense how long he has been in this void white s.p.a.ce, is it hours ? Days ? Months ? Or even years ? He can't sense it, all he can remember is just his memory of his life that still clears in his mind.

Takagi : so, I really am dead huh ? I can't feel my body, so am I in a soul-state or something ? am I going to be stuck here forever ? Or am I going to go to the heaven ? Or am I going to go to the h.e.l.l ?

Takagi : ugghhh, question after question is keep popping out of my head. Please someone answer me!! h.e.l.looo!!! Heeeiii!!! G.o.d!!! G.o.dDESS!!! ANGELS!!! DEVILS!!! ANYBODY PLEASE ANSWER ME!!!

Takagi keep shouting and shout and shout, even though actually no sound is coming out as his shouting is only a voice in his mind. He lost count on how many times he was shouting, how long he keep shouting.

He feels like he is going to lose his mind, because he can't see anything only blank white, he can't smell anything, can't hear anything, and can't feel anything because all of his sense is there no more.

He can't feel the sense of time at all as it feel like it just only a short while has pa.s.sed but at the same time it feels like it's forever. But suddenly a resounding voice that echoed like a thunder can be heard like exactly beside his ears, or actually directly heard into his mind. The voice nether sounded like a man nor a woman.

Unknown Voice : ALL YOUR OBLIGATION HAD BEEN COUNTED, ALL YOUR BEHAVIOUR HAD BEEN COUNTED, ALL YOUR DISPOSITION HAD BEEN COUNTED.

Unknown Voice : MAKE YOUR WISH

Takagi : then... I wanna be a G.o.d ?

Unknown Voice : GOOD KARMA IS NOT ENOUGH.

Takagi : oh d.a.m.n, but does it mean it is possible to become a G.o.d... then, can I go to the heaven ?

Unknown Voice : GOOD KARMA IS NOT ENOUGH.

Takagi : also not enough ? Ummm, Voice-san how much is my good karma ?

Takagi : 16 million!!! No wonder why I can't reincarnate to Son Goku in the Dragon Ball Universe... what should I choose ? First of all I don't wanna go back to my former world or universe... it's a boring world as h.e.l.l, no advanced technology, no game like VRMMORPG for example, no special power, no magic, no superpower, nothing at all!!! My only excitement is just by watching anime, read some manga and some novel. So for option number 1 and 2 is a no and fifth option is not possible because my Good Karma is not enough. Then...

Takagi : I choose the option number four

Unknown Voice : YOUR WISH CAN BE GRANTED, CHOOSE YOUR UNIVERSE.

Takagi : I still choose the Dragon Ball Universe... oohhh that's right, can I keep my memories from my life before ?

Unknown Voice : KEEPING MEMORIES DOUBLE THE COST OF REINCARNATING. GOOD KARMA IS NOT ENOUGH.

Takagi : then can I have status system in my next life ?
