How-not to be an Olympian God!

------------ Check out my new LitRPG, VR novel, Paragon Online! ------------ Athena, Zeus, Aphrodite, Hermes... These were all figures Alex only ever saw in books and status, so HOW are they now his neighbors?! Alex was a very ordinary young adult, stressing out about his financial situation and desperately trying to make ends meet. While awaiting his gig money deposit, he stumbled upon an email about a certain 'God Recruitment for the Pantheon!!'. He responded to the email to kill off his boredom and satisfy his inner otaku! "We're going to the Underworld?!" Chosen by Hermes to become a god himself, Alex has to navigate his new immortal self and find his place in the pantheon! This is an alternate Olympus, and the plot sometimes takes precedence over sticking completely to original myths. This book is an adaptation of Greek mythology, and for those who don't know much about it, don't worry, everything is explained as the plot progresses!

Hopeful Preparations

Alex was extremely excited to show off...humbly brag* about Prometheus to Hermes.

When he went back to the guest room, he found that the latter was still struggling to write a letter to Marzia.

'So dedicated, da*mn'

"Umm, Hermes, need any help?" Alex realized that Hermes would keep at this forever if he didn't lend him a hand.

Hermes swiftly turned around and exclaimed, "Yes, please, Alexei-boy!"

"Alright," Alex took a blank piece of paper and asked Hermes what the contents of the letter should be about.

He quickly finished up a very emotionally charged and sweet letter and passed it along to Hermes.

The god read through it and nodded, "It's perfect."

Then, Alex exclaimed, "Hermes, catch!"

He threw the silver ball at Hermes.

The latter was confused and spoke out loud, "A silver ball, with a ruby?"

Alex cleared his throat and said, "Try putting your Faith Energy in it."

Hermes shrugged and obliged.
