Hunger... hunger...
The only thought I have in my mind: I... need... food.
"Where am I, why are there so many diamonds in the darkness?", I asked to myself.
Just then, I suddenly noticed a formidable red glow on the horizon with a large aura of decay, however I wasn't interested in the light nor the aura, I was interested... of the energy it emits.
"There... there!!! I need it!!!", I shouted in my mind.
I suddenly then tried to go to it, however the origin of the glow might look like it's near not just because the light itself is so large, however it's because I was like I'm stuck in a separate space.
A few moments later, I sensed other beings, like me who are also going to the source of the light.
"No... NO! I must be the one to get there!", I said to myself.
I repeatedly channeled my remaining energy in my body to forcefully move, though I have an intuition I would die, the benefits I would obtain is worth it.
However, to my disappointment I didn't even move an inch.
Unexpectedly, a circular symbol appeared beneath me, and when I looked at it, it gives me a faint feeling of space and time around me.
I was in trance by a few moments until I sensed that I wasn't in the same place before I saw that strange panel.
The glow that out shone the other little specks of light in this endless expanse was no more.
These thoughts only occurred by few seconds until the hunger took over me again.
I instinctively looked down and saw a corpse. It was like the corpse was in a deep pit, or rather I'm floating above it. The corpse was emitting a red aura, however only it's energy attracted me.
I suddenly regained my senses by just absorbing the very little remnant energy from the corpse, which made me terrified.
"Just absorbing a very little of it's remnant energy already made me conscious, the energy I just absorbed would make me have consciousness for a very long time, but what about the energy from the corpse itself... and what kind of a corpse is it, plus how did I know all of these things?", I pondered.
However, I didn't waste anymore time and rushed to the corpse while absorbing it's remnant energies along the way which boosted not just my speed, but also my knowledge, reaction time and many more.
It was only few hours later that I wondered why am I not going down, or in another view, why is the corpse much larger than I thought it would be.
After that train of thought I sat cross-legged and internalized, then I used by special sense to check my body.
I saw that my body or should I say, my core, as I'm just a wisp, became more solid and tougher, and inside my core, I suddenly saw a symbol. It's the same symbol I saw beneath me before my position suddenly changing when the trance occurred.
"This... is this a teleportation array of some sort?", I said.
"Wait, I can use this to go to the corpse! Now I just need to know how to control it's direction. Earlier my craving for the energy was my last thought that it directed me to the top of the corpse. So that means it should...", after a long moment of thinking I tried to use the array and directed my thought only to the corpse and infusing with my energy.
Spatial fluctuations then showed up the area around me which after few moments later I sensed I wasn't in the same exact spot that the fluctuations occurred.
I looked down to see... I'm on the top of a humongous body.
"It's a success!!!", I shouted triumphantly.
The body emits gigantic and ridiculously powerful fluctuations around it that could make anyone shudder.
"These fluctuations, no wonder why I couldn't get close to the corpse, it's because the fluctuations around it are the same as the one in the array, it's a spatial and time power. When I think I get closer to the corpse it's just an illusion made by the space and time fluctuations, in fact I could even be moving away from it!", I said while gaining an enlightenment.
"Ehh, now it's time to absorb the corpse's energy. There's unlikely anyone who could get close to it.", I said confidently.
I sat down in a cross-legged position and closed my eyes. Unknown to me, I was sinking down the skin of the giant. Before I fully sank down there was a beam of light heading towards me. I felt great danger and suddenly I stopped sinking, I panicked because the fluctuations around the body of the giant didn't even stop it.
Surprisingly, I was being pulled up by an invisible force which stopped me from sinking down the body and a few moments later I was rising up from the body.
I couldn't move, I was terrified and I don't know what to do, then an opposite pressure appeared above me, now both of forces are trying to crush me. Now I'm feeling true fear, not just true fear, but also it's essence.
"No... no... NOOOOOO."
My wisp body can't handle the pressure anymore and I was crushed into motes of light and my soul emerged from it.
The beam of light then stopped to the location I was crushed and after stopping revealed a gorgeous jade-like woman wearing a robe with mystical scriptures that could be read on it and whose face could enslave all men and make other women sigh in envy.
"The aura emanating from this wisp, doesn't originate here in the universe. I must report this to the 'Court of Gods'.", said the woman.
A man clad in a simple white robe whose facial features could be said average in all aspects appeared beside the woman. Based on the face expression of the woman, she clearly doesn't like the newcomer.
"Partheia, why were you so rushed to get here? The Goddess of Territory is anxious?", the man asked while smiling.
"Hmph, Bethalamus. Just look at this.", Partheia said coldly while pointing at the wisp.
"Oh? The corpse of Fexun! He's been missing days now, I guess he offended somebody not to be offended!", Bethalamus was shocked.
"No!!! You retard, look at the soul of the wisp, you're the freaking God of Souls and the only one who could move it.",
said Partheia.
"Ehh? The aura of this soul doesn't originate from our realm, we need carry it back to the Court of Gods.", said Bethalamus.
The God of Souls then channeled his energy to carry the soul wisp, however it won't budge an inch.
"This?!? I refuse that you won't move!", said Bethalamus.
Bethalamus channaled half of his whole energy just for moving the soul which he still failed miserably.
"Still not budging an inch?!? THEN I'LL SHOW YOU MY TRUE POWER... GAHHHHHH", he roared and channeled all of his energy available and the soul wisp started to move.
"Yes!!! Finally!!! Oh? Eeek!?", Bethalamus was suddenly shocked because the soul started to disappear and a second later the soul dispersed.
"Dispersed just like that, under the nose of the so called God of Souls... hehe...", Partheia said while giggling.
"Don't call me so-so or I'll show you a thing or...", as Bethalamus was speaking an aura suddenly appeared near both of the powerful beings. That aura was none other than the soul that was believed to have dispersed.
"...", Partheia and Bethalamus was speechless.
"Oh? The soul is unconscious, we should carry it back...", as Bethalamus was speaking Partheia interjected and snorted, "Can you carry it tho?".
Both of the gods were suddenly quiet but was ruined after the soul emitted glows which then madly absorbed the energy on the deceased god's body.
"Should we stop it?", Partheia asked.
"No, but it looks like there's going to be a new god.", Bethalamus smiled.
"Hmph, becoming a god so fast? Why not a saint first? You even skipped demi-god and half-step god realm all to way to a real god?", asked Partheia.
"He's absorbing pure god energy, we true gods can also absorb other deceased gods' energy, however that would onky be allowed in times of war after the treaty was signed.", said Bethalamus.
The soul frantically kept absorbing the corpse's energy for two days until the body of the deceased god was devoid of any spec of pure god energy.
"This little guy will now have consciousness after he stabilize himself for a few days, let me see if I could carry him now.", Bethalamus said, after he said that he changed the form of his energy into a net to carry the soul away.
"Earlier I couldn't carry it without using a special ability because the soul might get harmed or rapidly disperse.", said Bethalamus.
"You're just making excuses little Bethy.", Partheia mocked.
"You...", several veins appeared on Bethalamus' head due to his anger reaching the boiling point.
As they were arguing the soul slipped out of the net but was noticed by the latter and caught the soul back again.
"To the Court of Gods!", said Bethalamus and then transformed in a beam of light which travelled far away in a direction with Partheia.
