Chapter 1 - The end and the beginning.

Well let's start off with an introduction shall we? First my name is Ryan. 30 year old American guy. Average life none of those stupid overly powered things like millionaire playboy. Just a regular guy and boy is it boring. My hobbies include reading light novels and Manga playing runescape sometimes just going on a walk to the park you know. Average stuff.

Today I'm going to tell you how I passed away.

Wait what?

Yeah I died.

I was reading at the library you know a nice quiet place and I ended up falling asleep reading some Harry Potter. Probably the best book ever but that's for later.

I woke to the sounds of an explosion and screaming everywhere my eyes looked there was fire. The books went up in flames like, well books lol. But this is no laughing matter.

I scrambled to my feet and started to rush toward the entrance all around me were flames the bookshelves were falling over people were screaming and rushing to the exits.

I noticed a small girl about 9 crying for her mother who had her leg trapped under a bookshelf I rushed over to give her a hand. Let me tell you bookshelves are heavy man. after about a minute of struggling to get her out we finally got it. I picked up the child and helped the mother wobble to the entrance down the stairs among the searing flames we rushed to the entrance and right as we were about to get out the roof groans. I look up and see flaming roof bits falling towards us and I know we aren't gunna make it.

so I do what any self respecting hero would do. I drop the child.

NOT!!!

I push the mother and daughter as hard as I can towards the exit while flaming hot debris falls on me.

I didn't die from the debris no I slowly roasted and let me tell you that's not a good way to go I screamed myself hoarse but after a bit I just couldn't go on and everything turned black and that's how I completed my ultimate form of jerked chicken BBQ style.

I woke up in a completely empty white space as far as the eye could see. the first thing I noticed was that I couldn't feel my legs hell I couldn't feel anything. I looked down at my body and noticed I didn't have a body. well shit.

????: You are taking this quite well for being dead you know?

Ryan: whose there?!

I quickly search around only to see a gentle looking old man sitting across from me gazing at me kindly.

????: hello there young man my name is $?&*#%$ but that's hard to pronounce for mortals you can call me god.

At about this point my minds going 100mph and I'm just staring at him I mean I wasn't really religious in my life I believed there was a higher power though but I didn't really go to church just figured you know if I didn't kill anyone I'd be fine and set to go to my happy spiritual place when I died.

Ryan: ah well hello there I take it I died then?

God: yes you did. what was it you said? ah achieved jerked chicken form. but quite the heroic way to do it I might say and fixed a mistake on my part.

Ryan: Mistake?

God: oh yes even I make an ocasional blunder you see that fire was caused by my accidentally releasing divine lightning and it caused that fire which would have killed that little girl and her mother but thanks to you you've saved them and for that I'm going to give you a new chance to live and three wishes of anything you want.

Ryan: uh ok..quick question why did you accidently release divine lightning?

I notice gods cheeks light up slightly and he coughs out some words I can't make out sounding like cancelled Anime or something.

God: *cough* let's not talk about that for now and get on to the real prize your next life.

Ryan: o...kay.

God: now you get 3 wishes 2 for the lives you saved and 1 for your own life as compensation.

Ryan: sounds fair enough. can I ask some questions tho?

God: Sure.

Ryan: okay well first question what do you mean new life?

God: well you can pick any time of place that you want to live and I'll send you there.

Ryan: nice. so is it reincarnation or transmigration? I read some light novels about that I enjoyed them.

God: you get to pick which one you want.

inwardly I'm screaming and shouting with joy I'm about to blow up with excitement this is something great. hundreds of world's are running though my head like Naruto or bleach maybe a cultivation world or dxd ooooh. how about one piece. but then all of a sudden my mind grinds to a halt and starts screaming at me dangerous those world's are dangerous. I need a nooby world to begin with and I've got just the one. Harry potter I mean where else can I get the ability to teleport and a nifty room on the 7th floor filled with goodies plus magic I mean which child doesn't love magic? well there's that out of the way.

Ryan: second question will I retain my memories?

God: ooh smart of you to ask hardly anyone does and yes you'll keep your memories wouldn't be much of a second life if you didn't.

Ryan: ah thank god for that.

God: your welcome.

I blush forgetting who I was talking too. well I would if I had a body.

Ryan: and my third question is will I have a body that's able to use all types of different magic based systems?

God: of course but you'll still have to train in those systems to be able to use them.

Ryan: seems fair. so last question am I going to have to do something for you like fight some strange evil god that suddenly defeated you or save the universe from destruction?

God: no no my boy none of that your not some super being who lost his memories and has some hidden wife somewhere who needs saving.

I'm sweating internally that that specific statement cause that's just what I don't want man I just want to relax.

Ryan: alright I'll trust you on this.

God: okay now then if your done with all your questions let's get into your wishes okay?

Ryan: alright well then for my first wish...
