The end is just the beginning

When Toby was about to touch, the ground is finished crushed like a mosquito that is killed with a tap. It landed on something extremely fluffy, like a kind of pillow padded with giant feather.

After a few lost moments, he began to look around to realize that he was in an entirely white place of a flatness that extended to infinity. In the middle of it all, there was a figure that seemed to smile at him.

As he came to his senses and looked at this figure in more detail, he began to frown and put his hand below his usual chin to show the outside world that he was entering a state of reflection.

"Haha, how do you find me young mortal?" said the figure, smiling at this funny reaction,

"I don't know, you look like a banal old man. I can't describe you so much, you seem normal"

"This is the first time I've been told this, normally people beautify me to have advantages, you're really a funny character, young mortal."

"I'm not very young I'm almost 35 years old" but as Toby said that he suddenly realized something to hide his embarrassment and show his mistake, he put his hand behind it while saying "Are you okay if I tutoise you old man?"

"Haha, it's been a long time since I've been talked to like this, yes you can tutor me, but I have to do it too in this case, and you're pretty young if I compare myself to you."

"No problem" while talking he sat cross-legged on this seemingly hard, but strangely fluffy floor, "So you're real?"

"Yes, I am the so-called 'God' as you say on your planet. I exist for people who want me to exist, who can tell you that I really exist and that it is not your mind that plays tricks on you?" said 'God' while keeping a gentle smile on his face.

"Ha, it's plausible I had never thought of it from this angle" as he nodded to show a sudden realization, but suddenly he tilted his head and frowned and then a few moments later he asked "But by the way why was there such a powerful wind that could make me fall into the void while we are in the summer during a heat wave?"

It was 'God's' turn to put his hand behind his head and he said while keeping his smile, "I wanted to see the progress of humanity in this universe, but I sneezed while you were next to me. You know, living with immeasurable strength, we often forget that a simple gesture can cause great damage."

"I see, I don't know what will happen to me now with your forgetfulness? I'm going to be reincarnated with superpowers like in the books I've read?" While a spark of excitement can be seen in his eyes.

"You're pretty direct like no one, I like that. You were lucky I saw what would happen to you if I hadn't pushed you while sneezing, you would have fallen after swallowing you pasta wrong following a cough too strong" by putting his hands behind his back while keeping his smile and his friendly voice.

In hearing this Toby said in a whisper "I don't know if it's really lucky to die, but said like that, it's pretty funny"

'God' had a muffled laugh upon hearing the whisper, but he acted as if nothing had happened and continued "In the case of what is going to happen to you, I will reincarnate you, but not in this universe even though I created the rules I can't break them." Toby had a bright smile when he heard this, "Are there several universes, old man?"

'God' looked surprised when he heard this question, but instantly replied, "Of course there are several universes, I created them to see how you mortal can manage to evolve. They are obviously different, and it is still not the most powerful that evolves the fastest. You come from a rather average universe; not the weakest, but by far the strongest."

Toby who listened intently to nod his head while saying"Hooo, why is it not possible to relive in this universe and can I keep my memory afterwards?"

"You're pretty curious, like no one. I can't revive a dead living being in the same place, it's against the rules, but it's not written that I can't in another universe, it's technically another place." While there was a wide smile on his face, "And as far as you remember I will make an exception for you it has been a long time since I discussed so much and as it is my mistake I owe you that."

Toby was all smiles, and he tactfully asked, "If I reincarnate, I'm going to be a baby again, can I really be conscious when I'm 17? I don't really want to know what it's like to drink milk directly from the source."

"Yes, it is entirely possible, and it is even mandatory, a baby cannot hold 34 years of memory regardless of the strength of mortals. But you just keep your memory, I can't transfer your character, your desires and the other things that go with it."

To 'God's' surprise, Toby was relieved, and he replied, "Great, I could finally have a chance to have a goal and be more like the others, no more insomnia, no more moody mood and to be an Asperger's. Even though I'm happy to be different, it's good to taste the ease sometimes." catching his breath, he asked, "What can I model my body?"

Hearing this 'God' laughed and said to him "Alas no, it is nature that decides I can only help you with certain things. Well I saw your past and your desire to have a goal, I will make sure to increase your chances to have this right, you managed to make me laugh all the same I can not leave you without accepting this simple request."

Toby smiled and said a simple, "Thank you."

'God' nodded at him and then said softly "Young mortal, even if I appreciate your present, I hope not to see you again anytime soon, not that I do not love you, but they meet me only in the last moment of life. With that, have a good trip and good luck accomplishing your goals."
