The Omniscient Spoon - 2

"Nothing happened," Lux replied.

"Hmm really? I thought something had happened that caused you to come home unannounced." Tenebri glanced at Lux who had a troubled expression. "Well if you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you."

Matri opened the dining room door and pushed the huge and towering crate.

"The chef has prepared your favorites, young miss and masters." Matri carefully placed huge chunks of meat, and other delicacies on the table. "I hope you enjoy your food. I will excuse myself for now." Matri left the room to give the family their privacy.

"It seems like something happened between you two" Lux pointed her fork at Tenebri who flinched in response.

"Well, you can say that..." Tenebri sighed and ate. 

"Guess you also don't want to talk about it, I won't force you," Lux replied with a smile.

After eating, Ignis and Aqua left after saying their goodbyes, Tenebri also left since she had important matters to tend to. 

"Are you leaving as well sister?" Arcus asked since they were the only ones left in the dining room.

Lux looked despondent looking at the leaving figures of her siblings.

"No, for now, I'll stay here, I don't have anything else to do back in my world and my associates can take care of other problems that may arise." Lux stood up. "Anyway, I'll rest in my room Arcus."

"Alright." Arcus left the dining room and went to his room. "Nanny, don't disturb me alright?"

"As you wish young master," Matri responded.

Arcus laid down on his bed as he cozied himself feeling the plumpness of the pillow. "Hah, being born with an omniscient spoon is amazing." Arcus glanced at his small hands.

"My father was a mortal...I wonder who he was, he must be something else since he even managed to make my mother a powerful god think of even conceiving his child." Arcus sat up and began to ponder whilst looking at the towering shelves filled with books.

"Divinity...since my body is that of a human, I don't think I can manage to have a divinity of my own...since my sibling's bodies were created of pure energy they can effectively use divinity, but since I'm only a half god..." Arcus sighed once more. "Well like big sister Lux said, It will manifest on its own. For now, time to read a book!"

Ever since reincarnating as a child of a god, all Arcus did was gather information. The perks of being born with an omniscient spoon were that Arcus didn't have to worry about anything. Food, power, money, status, Arcus already had everything in this life. 

As such, after being born, all Arcus did was read books, he slowly gathered information about the powers of a god and the mission each god had been given by the overseer.

The overseer, a powerful creature known as the god of all gods.

In the bible, god said to Adam and Eve: Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it, and have dominion over … every living thing that moveth upon the earth" 

The overseer said to all the gods: Be powerful, and multiply worlds, fill this endless void of planets and create life on each planet, give blessings, and have dominion of each of your worlds.

That was the sole mission of all the gods. 

"Hah, from what my brothers said, Mother created millions of worlds. She was one of the original ten gods, one of the children of the overseer," Arcus reading the book sighed, and put the book back on the shelves. "I have already read this ten times."

Knock, Knock

"Come in, nanny is that you? I already told you not to bother me." Arcus stood up. He opened the door revealing a young man standing in front of the door.

"Big brother?" Arcus glanced at the young man in front of him.

"Long time no see Arcus. Mother has asked for you." Mors, the 6th child of the goddess Deater. He has long black hair and a pair of tattoos on his eyes wearing long black clothing. 

"Mother asked for me? Is something wrong?" Arcus felt nervous, he had only seen his mother three times in his life. She was a busy goddess managing millions of worlds as such she didn't have that much time for Arcus.

"Well, Mother would be the one to tell you. Let us go Arcus Hurry." Mors gestured for Arcus as he turned around.

Arcus immediately followed Mors as they went outside of the huge palace. As they went outside, a white halo formed on the ground. Mors stepped inside of the halo. "Step inside the halo Arcus this will transport us to where Mother is."

"Ah yes!" As Arcus stepped inside, immediately they were transferred to a huge wooden floor. "Wow, where are we?"

"We are on Mother's favorite tea table.." Mors replied and bowed his head. 

"Tea table?" Arcus looked around and looked up above, a beautiful woman with long black hair, was drinking tea while looking at him. "M-Mothers true form!"

"Mother I am back with Arcus.." Mors bowed his head. 

"Good job Mors, you can go back now, thank you for fetching Arcus." Deater put down her tea cup as she leaned closer to Arcus. 

Mors waved goodbye to Arcus and teleported.

Her sheer size caused Arcus to tremble in fear. "M-Mother it is nice to see you!"

"It's nice to see you as well my son. I see you have grown from that miniature egg form of yours." Deater chuckled and put her hand on the side of Arcus. "Get on now, It's tiring looking down."

"Y-Yes Mother!" Arcus carefully sat down on Deater's hand. 'Egg form? when was I an egg? Did she mean when I was a baby?'

Deater touched Arcus's head with her fingertips. "Even your hair is longer, when you were tiny you didn't even have a hair.." 

"Ah yes well I have grown up mother.." Arcus scratched his cheek in embarrassment.

"Hmm, you look like your father now..." Deater narrowed her eyes. "Anyways, I called for you because I have heard that you haven't been able to call for your divinity Arcus.."

Deater raised her right hand and a small orb formulated. "Since you are half mortal my child, there can be a possibility that you do not possess divinity."

'Right...I already know that. A child born from a god and a human was a first, especially since gods view humans as small weak creatures, only created to entertain them.' Arcus was troubled due to his divinity. If he doesn't have divinity, he cannot venture and create his worlds like his siblings. 'I don't want to stay in that palace forever..'

Deater chuckled and gently caressed Arcus's face with her fingertips. "Don't look so down my child, it's only a possibility. That's why I called you here to check if you have a divinity or not. If you do have a divinity that hasn't been opened yet, then your mother here will open it for you."

Deater shrank the orb on her fingertips to match the size of Arcus. "This wouldn't hurt my child."

The orb entered Arcus's body covering him with its brilliant light.

A few minutes passed, and Arcus awkwardly looked at Deater feeling no change in his body.

[Calculating]

'Huh? What's this a screen?' 

"Oh your eyes are glowing, is it your divinity my son?" Deater watched gleefully looking at Arcus's astonished look. 'Hmm, what kind of divinity is it?' 

[Host has been detected!]

[Arcus]

[The child of the goddess Deater.]

[I am your divinity, created and formed from countless information you have gathered]

[Please name me]

"What does it say, my son?" Deater asked curiously. 'If it's Arcus, I'm sure it will be a powerful divinity..'

"Umm, it's an information divinity Mother...it says I have to name it." Arcus felt a familiarity with the divinity. 'It looks like a computer screen...' Arcus thought.

"Hmm an information divinity hah." Deater looked a bit displeased but replied. " Well, you have to name that divinity. For example, my divinity is called the ether. A powerful dark matter that eats through space and worlds."

Deater showcased her divinity as a black blaze formed on her hand. "Naming your divinity is essential for your future as well, if you raise your fame, your god name will be named after the name of your divinity."

"Oh.." Arcus was enlightened, he carefully thought of a name that he could use for his divinity. 'A name...Wait I think I do have one!'

[What would you want to name me?]

"Medi, Medi is the name I chose for you." Medi was the name of Hwa Donghyun's small puppy, it was named Medi since it was born as the middle puppy.

It was the first gift Hwa Donghyun had received in his last life, Medi was a lifelong companion but sadly died when Donghyun was in his college years due to cancer.

[Medi]

[From now on I will be Medi, It is nice to meet you Hwa Donghyun]

'What?' Arcus shivered looking at the text in front of him. 'How does it know? Even... Deater, mother a powerful goddess does not know, and yet this one?'

[I can access your memories Arcus. Do not fret, I am your divinity created from the accumulation of information from two worlds, I chose this form from your last life.]

"What can your divinity do Arcus? Since you said it's an information divinity I'm sure there can be other functions right?" Deater asked as she glanced at Arcus. 

[I can see through each person's skills, status, age, and information]

"It says it can look for information on anyone's mother. It can see the skills and status of a certain individual" Arcus explained. 'So it's a system...' Arcus nodded his head gleefully. 'A system this is good.'

"Look for information? That's the only thing it could do?" Deater sighed and held her head with a visible frown plastered on her face. "Hah, so it's that kind of divinity, well it's quite a common divinity, I also have such divinity..."

Deater was displeased. 'An information divinity? I thought it had other functions but it's just a normal divinity. Maybe I asked for too much, well Arcus is the child of him."

Deater sighed and changed the topic. "Well, that's not why I called you, I called you because you have already come of age. Do you know what happens to those gods who have reached the age of ten?"

Arcus was quite timid, especially seeing the displeasure Deater had. "Sister Lux told me that the god would be tasked with the mission by the overseer just like the other gods..." 

"Yes, I called you here since you have already come of age. It is time for you to leave the palace and start your very first mission."
