Chapter 2: The First Quest

After traveling for several days, Asher and his group of followers arrived at a small village nestled in the heart of a dense forest. The village was home to a group of woodcutters who were being terrorized by a group of bandits who demanded a cut of their profits in exchange for "protection."

Asher, now going by the name of Orion, saw an opportunity to gain more followers and prove his worth as a god. He approached the woodcutters and offered to help them drive off the bandits, promising to reward them with power and protection.

The woodcutters were initially hesitant, but they were desperate and decided to give Orion a chance. He and his followers spent the next few days preparing for the bandits' arrival. Orion used his powers to create traps and illusions to deceive the bandits and prepare for the battle ahead.

When the bandits arrived, they were caught off guard by the traps and the sheer number of Orion's followers. They were quickly overpowered and driven out of the village.

The woodcutters were overjoyed and grateful for Orion's help. They hailed him as a hero and pledged their loyalty to him. Orion fulfilled his promise and bestowed powers upon them, allowing them to better protect themselves and their village.

One of the woodcutters, a young man named Alex, was particularly impressed with Orion's abilities. He approached Orion and asked to become his personal follower. Orion saw potential in Alex and granted his request.

As they continued on their journey, Orion and his followers encountered other groups in need of their help. Each time, Orion proved his worth as a god, gaining more followers and ascending further towards godhood. He also faced challenges from other gods who saw him as a threat and sought to eliminate him.

Despite the dangers, Orion remained determined to reach the highest level of godhood. He continued to gain followers and bestow powers upon them, growing stronger with each new addition to his following.

But as Orion continued on his journey, he also struggled with his own identity and sense of self. He was no longer the same person he had been before he was transmigrated into this world. He grappled with the conflicting emotions of his past and his present, trying to reconcile the two.

Despite the challenges and internal struggles, Orion remained focused on his goal. He knew that the journey ahead would not be easy, but he was determined to see it through to the end.
