Chapter 10 - Life of Stephen

Steven P.O.V.

One day on my 3rd birthday, a voice sounded out in my head.

[Hello Host, you are the owner of the almighty GOD ASCENSION SYSTEM with the sole purpose of realising your destiny and becoming a god]

[First Mission, Kill anything. Reward Unknown]

"WHAAAA???" I screamed out in surprise

[To get rewards. Kill anything host]

At this point everyone was looking at me cause I screamed out for no reason, as I started to run away in shame and fear of what this voice is, I hear.

[Congratulations for host killing a common fly LV 1]

[Rewards are "God's Cultivation Manual" {GOD Ranked} and the "Killer's Fastest Blade" {MYTHICAL Ranked}]

Well that is cool

"Emm… System can you explain what you can do?"

*One lengthy system introduction later that the author has previously done and can't be bothered doing again*

~"Oh that's cool, can you give me my rewards now"~

[God's Cultivation Manual will take 6 hours to be transferred into your mind, it will be done while you sleep. As for the sword, it is in the System inventory. You can call it out by simply thinking about it]

[Also keep the system a secret otherwise people will take me away]

~"NOOO!!! I don't want you to be taken. I promise to keep you a secret"~

*The next day*

[New mission for the host, Kill a child]

Wait... what???

~"Why should I kill a child?"~

[If you do not, you will stay weak, and everything you love will be taken away from you, to assist host. A skill and an item have been added to the System Inventory]

When I checked my inventory, I noticed I got cool stuff

[New Skill Unlocked: God's Mind (Level MAX) {GOD}: Immune to the guilt of killing lesser beings, increases mental capabilities and slowly evolves the user's potential]

[New Weapon Unlocked: Holy Poison {Legendary}: Orb that controls all poisons below legendary tier. To start with, the orb has Holy Poison which can absorb other poisons to become more powerful. Current Holy Poison rank is {Uncommon}]

[This should help host with the journey to become a god, but before I forget, what is your name?]

~"My name is Roderick. Wait Roderick is my human name. My god name shall be STEPHEN"~

*Approximately 1 hour later*

Steven is watching a child about to drink out of a water bottle.

~"How long will it take for it to die? It is taking forever"~

[Depending on quantity drank, and the natural poison immunity of the human child. I could be from half a minute to 10 minutes]

Just as the system was finished explaining, the child just collapsed on the ground.

[Congratulations for host killing Human Child LV 1 (+ 10 exp)]

[Rewards of 1,000 CHK, All other Stats + 1.00, 100 sp (System Points)]

~"Yay, I used that inferior human to get stronger"~

[New Mission: Kill 3 children or 1 adult]

*Several days later*

The village is holding a meeting

"Has anyone found any clues as to why many children and adults are dying in our village?" questioned the village leader towards all the village adults.

"No chief, but I have sent a messenger bird to the nearby Ninja villages for assistance," said a well-built man.

"We can only hope they will arrive here soon or else… *cough* what is happening?"

*Many thudding sounds of all the adults collapsing on the ground*

"Yay, I got so much exp from killing the adults", a child says while he shrieks excitedly

[Mission of 'Kill more than 50% of the village population' Complete: Rewards: Body Refining Manual {Mythical}, Soul Refining Manual {Mythical}]

[Body Refining Manual {Mythical} (Level MAX): Devour bodies to take their strength, talent and potential for yourself]

[New Mission: Kill 100% of your home village. Bonus objective: Kill your parents and three siblings]

*Less than an hour later*

"Why Roderick? WHY???" screamed a crying and dismembered man surrounded by three dead children and a dead woman

"Simple, Killing you will make me stronger so don't blame me too much daddy. I'll always love you and mommy, but I'm a god so I can't stay weak. Bye bye" Said the child before decapitating the man

[Mission Complete 'Kill 100% of the village population' Complete: Rewards of 2,000 CHK, All other Stats + 5.00, 1,000 sp (System Points). Bonus Objective of 'Kill Family' Completed: Bonus reward of Sword Deity Slash {Mythical}]

"Cool. Time to find more weaklings to destroy and devour."
