1 Blackmailing the God

Today is a same old peaceful day as ever. I'm currently driving my motorcycle to go home. I'm kinda speeding a bit, because my favorite manga is finaly ending, and I want to read it fast.

On the road, a pickup truck in front of me, loaded with steel pipe is a bit slow, so I want to overtake him. Suddenly those steel pipe fall off in front of me. I instanly hit both of the brakes. But because I was going too fast, I can't stop in time. I can see a steel pipe is about to hit me in my face. So I close my eyes, and wait for the pain to come. But the pain never came.

I slowly open my eyes and realise, that everyting has turn dark. At first I thought I was blind. But after a re-check, I can still can see my own body. So where and what is this place?

"Hey". Suddenly I hear a sound calling me. I turn at the direction of the voice. And then I see him. A man with a pointy ear, that basicly indicating that he's an elf, sitting on a chair and making a hand gesture telling me to come closer to him. My mind is still blank, but I walk closer to him anyway.

"Welcome, my name is Slaine and I'm the one that killed you." Suddenly he say that.

"... You mean, I already dead? Are you god or something?" I was shock, but I still try to remain calm.

"You are surprisingly calm. And what make you think that I'm a god."

"Because I already read a lot of light novel and manga, where the MC is summoned to other world either by a god, or a king from some other world. Right now, I'm not in a throne room, or some other human / humanoid creature made structure. So either I'm in an isolated room, or this is some kind of god space. Also, the fact you said that I'm already dead, made me believe that you are a god."

"Bravo." he smile while claping his hand. "But you wrong about one thing. I'm not summoning you, I'm reincarnating you. That's why I say 'I'm the one that killed you' first. I need you to save my world from an impending crisis."

"I see. Do you already have permision from the god of my world?" I ask him that, to drag out some more informations.

he suddenly got stuned. "How do you know I need permision?"

I see.. He's one of those case, where he's trying to use the easy way to solve his world's trouble, using otherworlder's power or knowledge.

"I don't." I answer, "So that means, you will be in deep trouble if the god, or gods in my world find out about this."

He then look at me angrily. But then, it turn into a mischievous smile, "But too bad, your world god will never found out. Now, I will reincarnating you and give you minimal power to save my world."

Before he can do something to me, I scream at him with all my might. "If you send me now, not only I will not save your world, I will also help to speed up it's destruction!!!" Slaine then stop his movement.

"What did you say. YOU DARE TO DEFY ME!!!!" He became enrage with my threat.

But I will not back off. "You killed me because you're to lazy to do your job. You take me away from my family! You make me unable to read light novel and manga anymore!! SO YEAH, I WILL DEFY YOU EVEN IT COST ME MY LIFE!!!"

Seing me like that, the god Slaine then back off. He grit his teeth, and began to ask me. "What do you want?"

"You say you killed me. I take it, if I return to my world, all that awaits me is the grim reaper. Is this correct?" Slaine then nod in acknowledgement. "In that case, I will help your world. But I want to chose my own power, so show me the skill list."

"Alright." Slaine wave his hand, and then a skill list appear beside me. "You can only pick 3 skills. I can't give you more than that, it will take a toll on me."

I read the skills carefully for around 30 minutes. But then I have an idea. "I can't see the skills that I want so can you make it to me?"

"Yes I can, I'm a god after all." He answer smugly.

'Then don't throw your job at me!' I though. "Then, the first skill I want is 'Skill make'. Basicly a skill that allow me to made skills"

"What!? I can't give you that! You'll turn my world's law upside down!" He start to sweat in fear.

But even so, I will not budge. "Then, can you just make some restriction to what kind of skill that I can make. Make it as detail as posible. Also, if I can't make a skill that is not in the restriction list, I will take it as a breach of agreement, and will help the destruction of your world." This kind of guy realy need to be given a lessons. If not, he will always do as he please without thinking the repercussion.

He look at me angrily again. Not long after that, he give me the list of what kind of skill I can't make.

1.Give skill: skill that allow the holder to give other people skills

2.Other world teleportation: Teleporting one self or others to the other world

3.God skill: skill to become a god

4.World skill: skill to control the world it self

5.Turn time skill: skill to turn back time

I guess this fair enough. Those 5 skills is dangerous. "Okay I agree with this. Then for the second skill.."

"Hold on, you already have the 'skill make', what more do you want from me?" Slaine made a protest.

"To make skills, I will need mana or something right? So to remove the restriction, I want that something become infinate."

"So you also want 'Infinate magic power skill' right?" Slaine ask with tired face.

"Yes. Those two skill are enough."

"Great. So with all that end, I will send you to my world."

"Wait!" before he can send me I stop him again. "What kind of trouble your world is in?"

"Oh right. I haven't told you yet did I?"
