I’ll Challenge The Heavens

" So let me get this straight. Due to your divine intervention I was killed off so that your apostle could live? "

The entity he was talking to just, nonchalantly replied.

" You got it! Luckily for you though my apostle is one of those pure hearted maidens, and she took pity on you knowing I sacrificed your life hers so as a way to appease her I was asked to give a 2nd chance at. "

After he said that, a giant Wheel of Fortune materialized out of nowhere right in front of him. The entity then began to explain its function.

" By spinning this wheel you are leaving up where you reincarnate up to fate. Depending on you luck you can end up in the world similar to yours, or in a world plagued by the apocalypse! "

" Wait! I don't get to choose where I reincarnate? "

The entity just stared at me boredly before saying.

" Nope!! "

Sighing I just accepted it could be worse he could be the one choosing for me I'd rather leave up to fate than him.

Going towards the wheel grabbed one of the handles and pulled down hard and watch as it began to spin. After a while it was starting to slow down and eventually landed on the tile that said.

[ World of the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art ]

Reading that I had no idea what world it was I turned to the bored entity to explain to me.

Seeing that I was looking for confirmation about the world all the entity said was.

" This is world of cultivation where the strong devour the weak and the heave remains supreme. "

After hearing his summary I was reminded of a few wuxia novels I read before I died. Then I started to freak out because I knew without a solid background or plot armor I was going to be sent to my death.

But before I could voice out my fears, the entity then spoke.

" Don't worry I want sending you there without any chance at survival I'll send you on your way with 3 wishes as a way to repay my debts. "

After hearing this I felt a little bit better although I knew that wishes could only take me so far depending on what he's willing to give me.

I then looked at the entity and began to announce my wishes.

" My 1st wish is for me to receive the full enhanced version [ 12 Classics of The Demon King ] from the novel Eternal Sacred King. My second wish is to receive a set of resources that can help build a stable foundation in cultivating my technique. And my last wish is to receive the memories knowledge of Runes from the greatest rune smith. "

The entity looked at me quizzically before asking me a question.

" Why did you specifically choose these wishes?Although they aren't bad they aren't exactly that good either! "

I looked at him a for a bit before deciding to answer his question.

" The reason I choose my first wish was because from what I remember in [ ESK ] the main character started off as weakling without a future, but after obtaining this Technique he ended creating one of the strongest bodies and increased his chances at survival in his world although it may have been mostly due to plot armor but I think it was mainly thanks to the technique. "

" The reason for my 2nd wish is because to properly practice this technique I'm going to need high grade resources in order allow it to reach its full potential. "

" As for my 3rd wish I just really enjoy the thought being Rune master! "

After I had finished giving him my reasoning the entity began to laugh.

" Ha ha ha ha ha! You sure are an interesting fellow if it were any one else they would've asked for the powers of Superman or some bullshit, and I would've instantly screwed them over by altering their world to have kryptonite be an easily accessible object! "

He once again resumed laughing hysterically.

I was a bit uncomfortable how he openly was about sabotaging me if my wishes had disappointed him.

After he was done laughing the entity looked at me seriously and asked.

" Are you ready to start your next life? Also remember what ever type of morals you had from your previous life. Get rid of them because the world you're going is ruthless and even the heavens will be against you. "

After being reminded of my situation fear was once again instilled in my heart but along side it was a feeling of eagerness. I was eager to start all over again in a world where all my dreams could be accomplished if I succeeded.

And without any further hesitation I nodded my head in agreement and understanding.

Seeing that I wasn't going to back down the entity smiled brightly at me before snapping his fingers and I vanished in a golden light.

" ....I wonder what awaits him in his next life maybe he'll be able to meet me again under different circumstances..... wouldn't that be interesting ha ha ha ha.
