Main character Odarr

As I sat cross-legged, I hummed out of my mouth having completed my soul body. I decided to base it off an oni with my red skin and my dark pants and was not that a surprise there are no real clothes in the soul land everything is made with soul force which soul warrior generate so the more you generate the better it is for you. That means more soul force means more money and you need other people's soul force to gather power, so you must trade soul force for other people's soul force.

I have already informed the reincarnation gods of my choice to become a soul warrior and within a few days a god walking towards me and I can tell he is an Asian god based on his clothing while I might have Asian ancestry, I can no more tell who this god is compared to any other god he stops a few feet in front of me "hello I am Azion A mountain god"

I nod in greeting "I currently haven't chosen a name and am currently a level 0 soul warrior" he smiles quite happily at my greeting and respectful nature

"I have been sent to recruit you, young soul warrior, we can tell based on your choice you have some Asian ancestry we wish to bring you into the celesta bureaucracy" I immediately hide my expressions taking on a more neutral face while grimacing on the inside because the stories on the celestial bureaucracy point to the faction to being a bloated mess it contains 4 separate pantheons.

Japanese, Chinese, Korean, and Indian literary create cultivation universes by the hundreds whenever they get bored, but at the same time they have some of the most power imaginable but at the same time there the most numerous, and their book of names locks your power at a specific level, from what I hear when you finish training your locked in at the same time you will never decay, never truly gaining or losing power.

"I will need to think about this Azion" I inform him promptly and I see his face take a blank while looking at me.

"This is a great opportunity young soul warrior so make sure you think about this quite thoroughly" Azion's words were different than how we started out talking, most likely he was not used to getting told no.

I watched him walk away and I already knew I was not going to join the celestial bureaucracy, from the way he acted and realized that I am most likely going to have to build up myself like I planned and then head to a brand-new universe, but only when I have finished leveling myself. Most of all I am going to have to find a way to make a soul force product and gather soul force myself.

Most warriors join a simulated battlefield or the arena making their winnings actual winnings, and where when they lose, they lose nothing but effort.

I sat there in thought I had a few options I could make stuff with my soul force but at the same time I always had a dream, I wanted to make a farm, but I was so good at it I could not give it up, I was such a good soldier that I knew it was what I was destined for. I guess as a medium god I could make my lesser domain agriculture I knew I was going to be a war god it was probably a good thing that I should take a life domain as my second power.

I watched other soul warriors around me slowly building their bodies and as I was trying to find my path a soul warrior slowly walked up to me the soul warrior was a female body soul warrior. As she spoke to me I was slowly studying her body and was surprised to see she was also an oni only pale.

"so, what did the celestial assholes want from you?" she spoke to me she was slightly smaller than I was, but her presence was quite big slowly breaking into the first level of soul warrior.

"They wished to recruit me," I told her honestly and I watched her break into laughter I was surprised most likely she was approached as well, and she turned it down "what about you"

"those dumbasses tried to recruit me as well, but I told them to fuck off because I didn't want to deal with their bullshit a second time" I showed a question on my face "I was a priestess for the Shinto faction, so I saw hints of what that was like"

"So why did you pick an oni, I mean I picked it because they were pretty much the top tier warrior's in my ancestry" I informed her "I am pretty sure there pretty much demons to you guys like extremely dangerous monsters"

"to piss of my ancestors and to be able to drink as much alcohol as I could want" she looked at me with a deep smile "I hate them you know I wanted to be a doctor instead I had to be a priestess, well jokes on them I touched so many lives that I'm going to be a god"

She took a swing of her gourd and I could smell it and it smelled delicious now when I was alive, I greatly disliked alcohol now I can only look at the gourd and wish I could drain it in one go "I didn't realize body types affected are cravings"

"most don't you're most likely going to need alcohol at some point it's a vital part of oni diet" she offered me a drink "I should let you know oni horns tell how powerful you are for every centimeter equals 1 level"

My eyes shot to her horns and I realize there 20 centimeters easily I quickly turn and look at a mirror and discover my horns reach 24 centimeters. "that why they approached me they knew how powerful I would become"

"pretty much" she laughed at my dumbfounded expression "yeah it's something they keep secret from knew souls"

"so, what is your name," I asked out of curiosity

she smiled at me "Orena my name is Orena and you good sir oni"

I sat there in thought and realized I needed a name that was truly my own "Odarr my name is Odarr" and for the first time since coming to the soul land I felt complete
