God of Internet

"Come on Adrian, have a beer with us, this will be our last night together!" A girl said as she held my arm for balance, but looked at me expectantly.

At that moment, all the Massachusetts Institute of Technology alumni who had graduated with me that night were celebrating our last night together.

From that night on, we would change our status from "students, the future of society" to "unemployed, the scum of society," an inside joke we had during our senior year.

It's not that everyone was unemployed, there were already some classmates who got jobs in big companies, some worked in smartphone software companies, others in smartphone development companies, others focused on other areas of technology.

I was an exception.

The definition of a jack of all trades and master of none? That was me, Adrian Williams.

I've been interested in technology since I was a teenager, learning about software development, how hardware works, game development, and even AI in recent years.

But even though I delved a little bit into each of these subjects, before I got to the bottom of each one, I would find something else that interested me, and I would switch my focus to that other thing.

This made it difficult for me to get a job because my lack of focus didn't really help me choose the area I wanted to pursue as a career.

Of course, I did develop a few games and apps while I was in college, which earned me a fair amount of money and gave me the financial security to not rush into finding my desired field.

Finally, this morning I received a very interesting invitation.

The game company I was very inspired by invited me to participate in an innovative game project they were developing.

From the information they were able to give me, the whole project involved different areas of life that no other company had dared to include in their game.

And that interested me, it interested me so much that I was sure I wanted to be a part of it.

So I quickly confirmed my attendance with them, and tomorrow morning I would be catching a flight to Edinburgh, Scotland, where their headquarters were located.

As I looked at my classmates, the friendships I had made that I would probably never see again, my eyes returned to the girl holding my arm.

Emily Mendez, a beautiful Latina girl, a genius in the study and development of AI, the reason for my recent interest in AI, currently working in a senior position at CloseAI, an exponent of AI development in the world, was looking at me expectantly.

From the first time I saw her, I felt that we would get along well, so our friendship developed very well during the 4 years of the course, unfortunately neither of us took the initiative to do anything other than friendship, even though we both felt the intense sexual tension we had.

Thinking that this would be our last chance, I took advantage of her holding my arm and decided to enjoy the rest of the evening with her.

"How about we take this last beer somewhere else, Emily?" I asked with my mouth close to her ear.

As soon as I spoke into her ear, I felt Emily freeze before nodding slightly.

Without saying a word, we left the bar hugging and stood on the sidewalk waiting for a taxi in silence, just enjoying each other's presence and taking advantage of this physical contact that we hadn't had during our years together at university.

After a few minutes, a taxi finally appeared, and I waved my hand to the driver to indicate that we wanted to get in, but the taxi acted strangely.

Because I was drunk, it took me a while to realize what was happening, but the closer the taxi got to us, the more I realized that the speed of the taxi wasn't right.

In the few seconds that I waved at it, the taxi had come much closer than it should have, which put me on alert.

Suddenly, the speeding cab pulled up to the curb and headed straight for us!

Emily, who had been hugging me, fell asleep in my arms and didn't react when I tried to pull her out.

As I felt her weight fall on me, I became even more concerned about the situation and did the only thing my brain could think of.

I turned around and pushed Emily out of the way while trying to get out of the way of the speeding taxi, but to no avail...

Emily startled as I threw her away, but when I looked back at the taxi, everything seemed to go into slow motion.

The sign of the bus stop that the taxi had hit fell towards me, the only headlight of the stalled car still working shining in my face and blinding me until everything went white and I couldn't feel anything anymore...

For some reason, even though I couldn't feel anything, I could still think...

But I'd rather not... you know what's the most likely way you can think and stay conscious when you can't feel anything around you? Eating.

The only possibility I could think of for what I was going through was that I was in a coma, possibly a quadriplegic, at the mercy of the doctors who would decide whether or not to euthanize me...

Fortunately, after a while, I could finally feel a light appearing on the horizon as movements of my body came back to me.

"Adrian Innovashine, wake up!" A man's deep, powerful voice jolted me awake, causing me to raise my head from where I was lying and look around in confusion.

Seeing the way I was acting, several other young people around me looked at me with smiles as they laughed softly.

The most surprising thing was that these young people had very unique characteristics!

In the back of the room, there was a boy with white curly hair and electric wires running through his curls!

Next to me was a girl with her face covered, with blue hair that looked like it was actually made of water, moving like waves in the sea!

Each person in this room had a unique characteristic, some with more noticeable features, some with more discreet features, but all with something special.

"Pay attention to me, Mr. Innovashine!" The teacher shouted again, his deep voice making me unconsciously look at him.

Nodding his head, the teacher went back to explaining the content on the blackboard while using his fingertip as a brush to continue writing the content in a language I had never seen before in my life.

But even though it was a completely new language, I could understand every word he wrote!

'What's going on?' I thought, even more confused. Where am I?

"Pfft, what a shame, even though he is a full deity, he can still be so pathetic?" I heard a boy's voice from the back of the room.

"What's the point of being a full deity if your divinity is as useless as 'creativity'..." Another boy laughed.

Hearing what the first boy said left me very confused, but hearing what the second boy said caused a click to sound in my mind, and with that click, various old memories and knowledge that I had no idea what they were entered my mind, causing me to close my eyes and maintain a solemn expression.

When I understood what was happening, memories of novels I had read when I was younger made me adapt quickly and try to hide what was happening to me.

Fortunately, I didn't feel the pain that I had always read happened to people who were reborn in another world in someone else's body.

This large amount of memories gave me a little headache, but not enough to make me scream or anything like that.

It only took a few seconds before I was able to open my eyes again and pretend to pay attention to the teacher.

With the memories in my mind, I was able to understand my current situation.

At that moment, I was no longer Adrian Williams, but Adrian Innovashine, the young god of creativity.

I was nothing special to be a god, because in this world, 90% of the people awakened a god, with some of them achieving very simple and underrated divinities, such as the Corn God, who although he managed to make a lot of money from corn farms and created some corn soldiers to work for him, had little combat power and just lived a life of luxury like a normal god.

On the other hand, there were gods with great potential, like Zack Gale, the boy with white hair and lightning bolts running through his curls.

Zack was the God of Thunder, unlike the Zeus of my old world, who commanded the skies and all kinds of lightning and thunder, with great dominion over everything related to it, Zack only had dominion over thunder, being able to create some clouds, and through those clouds he summoned the thunder.

The girl next to me, with hair that looked like liquid, was Lucy, the Goddess of Waves.

Every student in this class had the divinity of something with great potential, especially for fighting.

And then there was me, Adrian Innovashine, the God of Creativity, the only God with a full godhood, unlike them who only had a small part of a greater godhood.

But despite having a full godhood, which was extremely rare, and even worse with the godhood of creativity, the Adrian of the past had no creativity whatsoever, failing in any way to use his godhood in a useful way for combat, which made him the last student in the class.

Coupled with the envy of the other students for his full godhood, Adrian's weak body, shy personality, and tendency to be submissive due to a troubled past made him the perfect target for bullying at this elite school.

And now I had taken over his body and ceased to be Adrian Williams and became Adrian Innovashine.

But unlike the previous Adrian, I had a lot of curiosity about my divinity and ideas about what I could do with it in the future!
