Friends

"So wait, you don't know about your revival ability?" he asked, "Wait, let me think about it for a bit…"

I looked at him while he was thinking, waiting for his answer. Though, before that happened, I had to say something, "Sorry, you don't need to tell it to me now. Plus, you had something you wanted to ask me, didn't you?"

He had said that he would listen to all of my questions once I listened to his single request. Though not only that, I had also made him listen to me first, so it made sense that his request should be prioritized now. I also didn't care that much about resurrection magic, I was just a little curious about it.

'I had heard my friends say that you could use healing magic for some crazy amounts of torture, heck I even know how FE-19 was used most of the time,' I thought, 'I can't even imagine just how much pain I could inflict with resurrection magic!'

"Oh, sure." he replied, "I'll tell you the reason why you use revival after it, ok? How does that sound?"

"Sounds good," I answered.

"So, before I tell you what my request is, I'll first have to make you aware of something, ok?" he asked.

"Sure!" I nodded.

"You see," he looked at me as if he were looking at prey, "I am fucking bored! For the last two billion years, I have been sitting around doing literally nothing! Managing world sounded fun when I was just born, but after a while it became a tedious task. No, I couldn't even consider it be the task, as the only thing I had to do was to give it a little of my mana once in a while!"

"And not just that. Every fucking time I decide to descent so I can check what everyone's doing, everyone and their mother get their brain turned into pasta!" he said with a voice so powerful that the entire world shook because of it, "Oh, and that's just the beginning, the gods, the fucking gods!" a flood of emotional energy was released as the dam which was Lo Recant's mental health broke down "Who are the only fucking beings that don't get turned into a vegetable! They fucking bow down and worship me every time I drop by to say, "Hi."! Even when I say to stop! They fucking twist the meaning of my words and start to grovel even more!"

'Holy shit!' I thought.

To say that I was terrified would be an understatement. That was how scared I was.

If words could be turned to energy, he would've produced enough to destroy the entire world ten times over. That was the sheer amount of wrath and irritation he had released through his voice.

"Calm down!" I tried to calm him down.

"Yeah, I think I should cool down," he replied, "Sorry, I guess. I just released all the pent up anger and irritation I had felt for the last billion years."

"To be honest, your anger and irritation do not feel like a one which was held for a billion years." I answered, "If it was, then the entire world would've probably been destroyed, wouldn't it?"

"Well, I guess you could say that." he wryly said, "I mean I do have a daily ritual of killing every single person in the world then destroying the world itself to calm down and to have some fun, but to be honest, it's also starting to get a little boring."

'Holy fuck, that's metal.'

"Plus, now that you've come here, it's going to very interesting." he finished.

"Why so ?" I asked.

"Well," he answered, "I have an ability which allows me to look into all the timelines which exist. I only use it for seeing my lifeline, meaning I only use it to see which timeline I die, nothing more. But, since by some ungodly luck, you appeared; I now have a one in a trillion trillion trillion chance of dying. So, I am a little interested in how you got so powerful. Oh, by the way, it took you about ten millennia to reach that much power in that timeline."

"Plus, just hearing what you had done and seeing the things you just did here made me even more interested in you." he, once again, pointed towards the forest, "I mean, you're probably going to be the sickest bastard I'll ever see."

"Oh, I see." I replied, "Thanks for the compliment, I guess…."

"Now what's your request?" I asked, "you still haven't said it yet."

"Oh, it's nothing complex," he replied, "I just wanted to see what you are doing in the first person, so I just wanted to get your permission to go inside. I could've done it without you ever knowing, but, I got too lonely and wanted someone to talk to."

"How does it sound?" he asked.

"Well, I'm fine with that." I replied, "I mean, it's really sick that the first friend I have ever made in this world is the world itself.

"To be honest, kinda expected you to kill me the moment you saw because of my titles," I added.

"Well, true," he replied, "I wouldn't have expected that my only friend in the last two billion years was going to the guy who has the skill Ragnarok and has titles such as World Enemy. And also has a trump card called the World Annihilator Breath, don't ask how I know your move's nickname, you're going to regret it."

"So, that's it, right? Friend." I asked.

"Yeah, that's about it, I guess." he replied, "Now you can ask me whatever you want. Though I still have to explain some mandatory things to you, otherwise, you're going to have a bad time as I'm going to make every being more powerful from now. I mean I don't want to see the adventures of the guy who just one-shots everything."

"What, really!?" I asked, "You can make every being more powerful!"

"Yeah, I can." he replied, "If I wanted to, I can make every inhabitant of this world get the Divine-Rank. Though I won't do that as doing so is equivalent to digging my own grave."

I started to get a little excited, after all, it meant that I was now finally going to have fun. The orcs had been a massive disappointment, after all.

"Say, how about you make every being who fights against me stronger whilst making me as strong as me when I was an Inferno Dragon?" I asked excitedly like a 5-year-old.
