FIRST STEPS 2

"That my dear friend is something similar to what in your world they called intelligent autonomous system. I remember having seen, in my spare time, something similar in some novels that were published years ago, but much more fanciful, at least until that purge of writers happened."

"Ah yes, I remember that, thanks to that purge, more than 50% of books and novels in the world were lost, luckily the important books were digitized, or else, many new cultures created by the people would have been lost."

Now, it is certainly intriguing what Orion just brought up to me regarding the centralization that occurred with the gods, yes there are gods focused on every aspect there is in reality, why is there no God that has control over time, and, will there be gods focused on space and reality... what a silly question, it's obvious, they must exist. in fact, I think that's a common ability because, how would we create a universe with planets, stars, and well, everything in a universe without the concept of being able to mold and form a territory in non-existence? Now I was curious about something.

"Orion, what concept are you focused on?"

"In my case? Well, I'm more of a God of knowledge."

"pffft...so...you collect books?"

"laugh, laugh one more time!!!"

"hahaha, ya, sorry, but it's true, what does a "god of knowledge" do?"

"i process and catalog the description and information of every existing and non-existing object in the multiverse, and i am even able to change the very concept of what the object is about. an example would be a food, i change the description of that food to be a weapon. This affects the existential level. now that food is capable of launching organic projectiles, made from its own structure."

"Wow, that really is very broken."

"yes, but it has its drawbacks"

"Really, what would those be, you practically define the very existence of the objects?"

"Don't even think I'm going to tell you the weaknesses of my power, and be careful when you ask those questions, I may be treating you as an equal right now, and tolerate your disrespect, but don't forget I'm a God, many years older than you, and others will not be as gentle as I am."

"okay, you didn't have to be so serious either, a simple no would have been..."

"ENOUGH"

"ok, ok, sorry yeah, I won't talk to you disrespecting you anymore."

Orion really looked scary, maybe I ignored him because of his appearance and his attitude towards me throughout our whole conversation, but he certainly is a veteran God compared to me. he could easily annihilate me with a sigh. but that outburst suddenly is not normal, in all this time talking, at no time had I ever seen him lose his cool, excluding my ascension to godhood.

"Orion, are you okay, are you worried about something?

"Urgh, i thought i would have more time to be able to explain things to you. but it looks like our talk is going to hit a snag, remember, use the system, she will help you as best she can, learn to use your powers correctly. i'm going to have to send you something away from here"

"why, what's going on, what's the downside?"

"Boy, not all gods are on good terms, even though the sphere indirectly forbids us to start a war between gods, that doesn't stop us from using our universes and their inhabitants to fight for us. And when a new god is born, it still counts as an inhabitant of a universe. usually a squabble occurs over who gets to "keep" it, thus adding a powerful token to their army, obviously I stay away from those issues because I consider myself of the neutral faction. "

just as I was about to ask orion another question, we saw a rift being generated in space itself. In it I could see, a battalion of a humanoid species, more similar to a lizard, they were armored by a crimson armor, exposing his head, as well as certain joint to not limit the movement, these measure about 2 meters high I think, it is not like I have something to make a size comparison. Behind them I saw a being three times as big as these creatures. Although its appearance was similar to the lizards, unlike them, this one exuded a terrifying aura, it reminded me of the aura expelled by Orion when he generated the barrier, but unlike that moment, I was not a god, and I barely perceived it, now that I have divine energy, I can feel it vividly, and this guy, expels an aura so strong that ended up paralyzing me, is this feeling what it is to be in front of a god, I barely turned to see Orion, who had a murderous look.

Once they finished passing the rift, it closed, as if it had never been there to begin with. this guy felt so different from Orion, exuding an oppressive aura and an unbearable bloodlust

"well, well, well. But look what we have here eh"

"what are you doing here Kaltor, I didn't give you access to my territory...."

"oh, you had to be asked for permission? My apologies, it's just that I was quietly in my universe, training this new generation of gods, when I felt a faint presence of a newbie god...in your domain, I was curious, since as the new generation was born in my territory, it was impossible for one to come out of nowhere...especially in your universe" said the god Kaltor laughing.

"What happens in my universe stays in my universe, so why don't you get the hell out of here, you little lizard".

At Orion's statement, this battalion of lizards brought by the God "Kaltor" positioned themselves in an attack formation. I found it stupid, as they are mere mortal souls against a god. It was the same as asking to kill them.

"You dare to insult our lord????? Ahhh!!!"

A soldier of the battalion broke formation and went to attack orion. who the latter was totally calm, but with a look that could murder entire planets. before he could even reach 5 meters, this soldier was brutally pierced by 5 spears coming from 5 previously invisible warriors. these were sporting armored armor, expelling a glittering glow, I noticed that, of these 5 warriors, all without exception had 2 pairs of white wings. So these are the Guardian Angels created by Orion, they do live up to their name.

"me insulting the Kaltor, at what point. he was the one who insulted me first by coming my universe uninvited, let him be thankful I haven't cast him out yet"

"you are not powerful enough to cast me out Orion, or else you would have done it by now oh great God of knowledge."

At that mention of lack of power, Orion's face contracted. Snapping his fingers, an army of countless guardian angels, equal in power to those who riddled that lizard soldier, rose up from the darkness.

"wow, what soldiers!!!, just kidding Orion, sorry. Now seriously speaking, why is there a rookie god here? He should be with the others."

"he was just reborn, so he's not from the batch of gods that was born in your universe. this is from mine."

"what? that's impossible. but i don't think you're lying, most likely this, anomaly, is one of the Spher's plans. I'm going to have to take it with me.

"Oh yeah? And with what authority?"

With the authority given to me as the one in charge of the new generation of gods, let's do this the easy way Orion, even though we are almost equal in terms of power, I am focused on war, and you are focused on knowledge. I have the upper hand."

"sorry kid, but I think this is going to hurt."

Orion clasped his hands together and a sphere was formed, inside this I could see what looked like some sort of storm, with multiple miniature tornadoes inside, I didn't even manage to say anything when Orion slammed this sphere into my chest generating a super massive shockwave. ejecting me out of the orion universe at an indescribable hyper speed. Although this shockwave was not intended to severely injure me, my body apparently had not yet fully assimilated the divine energy, so I felt enormous pain through sections in my body that I didn't think would have pain receptors. It was so much that I ended up passing out.

"......"

When I woke up again, I realized that I was still moving in a random direction. All I could see was nothing, there was nothing. I don't know how long I was asleep, or how far I had gone. I wanted to stop, but I didn't know how, the only thing I could think of was to wait until it started to slow down. But instantly the information came to me that being in an empty plane there is no force to slow me down, since there is no gravity. now i was at a crossroads since i didn't know what to do. it wasn't until some time passed that a message came to my mind.

"do you need help my lord ####?"

"what, you are the system orion told me about aren't you?"

"that's right my lord ####, I am the artificial intelligence linked to the imperative support system for novice gods, created by Lord Orion and ..."

"Okay, too much information. First thing, how do I stop."

"what you have to do to slow down, to subsequently stop, is to concentrate your newly adapted divine energy, through your hands with the mandate to slow down the speed. For these cases the recommended thing to do is to spread it in a barrier around the body, but as Lord ####, became a god recently, it is unlikely that he can achieve it in his first attempt..."

"hard braking"

"au!!!! why didn't you say it would hurt????"

"That's impossible, how did you manage to adapt so quickly to the battery power to be able to use it on your entire body in less than 1 hour??"

"I have always been quick to learn, now then, where are we?"

"you are currently 400 billion light years away from Mr. Orion's universe, an ideal place to start your universe my lord ####."

"Urgh, this is giving me a headache."
