"....."
"Umm... where are we going?" Lucio asked, they've been walking for a while now and he kept attracting attention from everyone due to his ethereal form, everyone had a physical form while he didn't, he can't help but feel naked with the way people stare at him.
"To your house, Lord Gaia ordered me to bring you to your house."
"About that... can't I just return to my home?"
"That won't do, Lord Gaia has ordered me to do this, plus You can just set a portal up on your new house to your dimension."
"I can do that?"
"Aren't you a god?"
"You treat me like I'm not a god."
"Oh my bad, Lord Lucio." She replied in a rude way
"...." Lucio was getting a little bit annoyed with the way she treats him.
"Who was that masked god? How did he know I wasn't lying?" Just to be sure Lucio asked about the masked god
"You could've asked that sooner, He's our Supreme God, Lord Gaia, Lord Gaia has a higher god rank than you, therefore he could determine if you lied or not."
"That's quite convenient but at the same time rude."
"Gods are not bounded by rules unless there's a higher ranking god that chose to rule over them, and Lord Gaia is the ruler of this dimension, so you better obey"
"Is there a reason for Gaia-" Lucio was about to ask about why Gaia decided to give him a house on one of his planet but Lucy interrupted him.
"Lord Gaia." Lucy corrected Lucio
"Lord Gaia is a generous god that gives newly born gods a land on one of his planets, you should be grateful that he even gave you a land on his main planet." She continued.
"We've arrived," Lucy said as she stopped infront of a huge building that looked like a corporate building the only difference is it was purely made out of gold, why are the most of the buildings here are made out of gold? he wondered.
"Wait, I thought I'd get a house not a building?"
"No silly this is where you'll get your land, there you could create your house." he got more confused with Lucy's explanation, he thought he'd get a house now its a land, not that he's complaining but it was still strange.
"Houses of gods are also known as Temples and Churches, you'll need a significant amount of land to build your house and establish a religion therefore Lord Gaia gave you that land, you should start your religion if you can create your first mortals in your land."
"I'm a novice god, you expect me to create a mortal?"
"Normally novice gods can create creatures already" Lucy replied as she opens the magnificent golden door.
"Wait really?" He entered with Lucy.
"Welcome welcome!" A floating blue ball of light welcomed them.
'What is she?' Lucio asked the system
[[A Fairy.]] As the system answered him he looked closer at the blue ball of light, there was a tiny girl with blue wings flying inside it.
"Miss Lucy, are you here to buy land?"
"No, for the last time I'm not a god, I have no use for those, but he has." Lucy stepped on her side then pointed at Lucio
The fairy gave him a weird look then after staring at him for a while she finally remembered something.
"Oooooh a newly born god?" The fairy started flying around him inspecting him
"Lord Gaia said that you should give him land on planet earth" Lucy mentioned 'Earth' and that attracted Lucio's attention, he would've never thought that he would get a land on his old planet.
"Oooooooh he must be special then!"
"Not really, it seems like he can't even create his own mortals right now so he must be pretty weak.." Lucy explained then mumbled something at the end about 'not knowing how he killed an a rank titan'
"Alright follow me Lord....Lord?...Uhh....What's your name?" She was about to fly away when she realized that she still hasn't got the new god's name
"Lucio." He answered
"Lord Lucio please follow me!" She smiled then flew to the reception where there's a creature wearing glasses while reading books.
She approached him then whispered to his ears.
The creature nodded then spoke
"Name?"
"Lucio." He answered
"Open" He waved his hand in the air, with that gesture a portal appeared
"Is creating a portal that easy?" Lucio asked the system, he already met two person that could create a portal so it might be easy to create
[[You would need the coordinates of the place you want to go and a significant amount of your essence.]] The system answered.
"How much essence do I need?"
[[500 Essence for one use portal.]]
"Five hundred?!" For him, that amount of essence was huge since his capacity is only 250 and he currently had 1,000 essences due to him absorbing it from the titan
"So they are stronger than me? I thought gods are the strongest being."
[[They are not, but a god can create a stronger creature than them, the creatures can die but gods essence can't die, only their physical form can die but that can easily be remade if the god is powerful enough, those creatures are specially made to open portals so please don't compare yourself to them.]]
"I see..." He mumbled, creatures probably had lifespan while gods don't, they were immortals.
The conversation between him and the system takes time and he just noticed that they were staring at him.
"Are you going or not?, don't get me wrong, you are required to go since Lord Gaia has ordered me to do this" Lucy said as she stands infront of the portal
"I am going!"
"Alright follow me." Lucy said as she spreads her wings then enter the portal, That reminded him about the moment where she entered his dimension and almost fell into the pure nothingness, will he fall or spin uncontrollably if they appear in space or the sky?
[[You shouldn't worry about insignificant things User, The system will assist you until you can fly in your own]]
"You were reading my thoughts?"
[[Yes.]] Now that the system confirmed that, he no longer had the privacy he had long time ago before he became a god.
He entered the portal.
They appeared in the space, there was a huge blue planet infront of them, it was earth.
"I'm back huh?..." He unconsciously spoke.
"Back? have you been here before?" Lucy was on his side floating with her wings.
"Can we continue?" He chose not to answer her question, he doesn't want to talk about his past.
"Alright follow me closely." As she said that her wings spreads out then she flies down the planet at Mach 6 speed, how the heck is he supposed to follow her closely if she's that fast?!, little does he know that it could be considered as slow in a god's term, normally gods can travel faster than the light or just teleport.
"System, can you turn the assist mode off for a bit? I want to free fall from here"
[[Thats not possible, God's are not affected by gravity, they are only affected by it if they will it, you currently have no power to freely bend a world's law, but you may rotate your body in every way you want]] The system explained, he thought he could just disable the system's help then fall to the planet then activate it before he hits the ground, now that the system explained, he had no choice but to run to the planet.
He sighed and started running towards it, he just noticed that he was unusually fast when he ran, He doesn't get it at all, it doesn't make sense but he still continued.
After an hour or two he finally arrived at the planet's surface.
"You took an awfully lot of time going down here" Lucy said as she was waiting for him to come down a long time ago.
"I can't fly that fast like you." He said as he rotates his body in the right way, he was facing the ground when he ran down the planet.
"Normally novice god's can teleport already." She mentioned something that he didn't know.
"Wait really?" Did he just waste his time running? he asked the system about it.
[[You would need 10 essence for each kilometer you travel with your teleportation.]] 10 essence per kilometer was a lot if he teleported from space but not so much if he was in land, It was better for him to just run and deal with it.
"Thats expensive." He mumbled.
"That's where you'll have your land." Lucy pointed out at the huge mountain infront of them.
"Will the whole mountain be mine?"
"Yes, you are free to do whatever you want in that mountain, you can expand your territory by having followers or worshippers" Lucy explained
"But becareful of the other gods, they don't like random gods entering their territories without their permission so please do ask for permission before you enter someone else's border."
"Now that I showed you your territory, I must leave." She spreads her wings then flew out the sky, she looked like an angel returning to the heavens.
"..."
"I guess this is where everything really starts?" Lucio said as he look towards the mountain.
