I DIED AND WAS REINCARNATED AS ..... A GOD?

While Sarasvi was still talking, my little bomb exploded, generating a mini big bang, how anticlimactic, it could be considered that in my old world religions and scientists were right, god exists, and he created the universe through an explosion hehe, I would like to see their faces if they would discover that all their years of fights to see who was right were in vain. Anyway, I can see different energies coming out of the explosion, I guess it's cosmic energy, I see that the first stars are forming..... Very slowly.

"Sarasvi, is there no way to speed things up a bit? This will take forever at the rate it's going."

[I'm afraid you can't skip this process sir. the so called "time ability" is not on such a large scale.(beeep) The most you could speed up with your current power would be the development of one of the heat and light sources you call stars].

"wait, wasn't the ability to control time not supposed to exist?"

[it does not exist to a celestial degree, being able to manipulate the laws of time (beeep) to universal levels is something no god to date has been able to, but speeding it up to a lower degree as such does exist. there are lower races that use mana as a source of power to cast spells to alter time, but to a much lower degree. Only by altering time in their world].

"mmm, i get it, i mean, i just have to sit back and watch the universe slowly being created, other than overseeing the universe, what do the gods do?"

[commonly, the gods exchange souls to see their impact on their inhabited worlds, it's like entertainment for them, they also sleep, thus regaining their power, they usually take naps, lasting for hundreds of years].

"i guess i'll let this develop slowly. now, why don't we try creating some servant?"

[sounds like a good idea to me sir (beeep), considering how much energy you have left, you can create up to 2 beings at the level of a demigod, and with (beeep) they can regenerate their divine energy faster when they start praying to you, like I hadn't thought of that before].

"ehhh yeah, I had it in mind from the beginning... it wasn't because I wanted someone else to talk to hehe."

[mmm, I'll let it go for this one time since we really need assistants to recharge our energy].

"Yeah. Better start... wait, what do you mean, ours?"

[ehhh, oops. (Whistling)]

Sarasvi, until now I have not given you any orders since I have not considered you as a mere tool, but now I order you to tell me what you mean."

[Urgh, okay. Me being an artificial being created by divine energy, I need some sustenance to keep my abilities at 100%, but since you were consuming your divine energy like breathing, I had to start praying to you to get them back. But I kept consuming too much, so I ended up choosing the most viable option, which was to grant you part of my personal reserves. My capacities are at 40%, that's why I've been slipping when communicating with you].

"I understand, I think I'll stop using energy so carelessly...Hmm? I'm feeling a bit tired."

[that's because you are unconsciously using "D.E" (divine energy) and you are consuming yourself passively, I recommend you to rest for a while, better create at least one servant now, and the other after you have regained more strength]

"Good."

I don't want to spend so much energy on this servant because of what Sarasvi told me, so I won't make him to the level of a demigod, I think I will leave him to the grade of an improved human. I want him to be totally loyal to me to avoid possible betrayals, to be a master butler when it comes to being able to serve me in whatever field he is needed and to have great combat skills to protect me, Alfriid style. As I want him to be with me for eternity, he must be unable to die, therefore, he must be long-lived so that he does not age. His appearance is the least of it, but I want him to look like a young man, and no, I don't have those fetishes. It's just that it would be even worse to have an old man. Anyway, once I already visualized the servant, I start channeling my E.D. generating a white sphere in my hand, I instinctively know it's the core for my servant, leaving it on the ground, it starts emitting a reddish light with golden tints, at that my vision starts to blur.

"Urgh, don't think I can is conscious once you finish taking form, I know you are hearing me, even if you don't show it, so I order you in advance that once your body is complete, take me to my room and protect me from any threat. Sarasvi, I charge you to provide him with the basic knowledge that he may lack."

[understood my lord, I will wake you up .... your D.E. levels .... acceptable range...]

I could not hear well what Sarasvi said, as I fell asleep on the floor outside the room where my universe is "hosted". Ahhh, I hope I don't sleep too much, I would like to see how my universe is progressing and evolving.

A considerable amount of time later...

[...]

[......]

[...sir, it is time for you to wake up...]

[......]

[...]

It's ok Sarasvi, I heard you."

Opening my eyes I notice that I am in the same room in which I had been sleeping before, I can see that it is more decorated with renaissance style furniture with some modern details of dubious precedence. I get out of bed and notice that I am wearing only thin cloth pants, leaving my upper part uncovered. Did Sarasvi order the servant to undress me? I'll have to talk to her. There is a full-length mirror near the dresser, looking at my body I can't help but think that I am indeed beautiful. While admiring my body, I notice through the reflection that the door opens with extreme delicacy, in it enters a young man dressed as a butler with a tray with food. his hair is of a reddish tone with golden lines, he doesn't look older than 25 years old, in his golden colored eyes I can see an immense devotion and happiness when he sees me.

"I see you have woken up from your nap my lord, I hope you had a nice sleep. How are you feeling?" he asks me while he puts the tray on the table.

Ehhh, I feel better I think, what do you bring in the tray?"

"ah this? While I was tidying up one of the rooms, I felt a surge of D.E. in the mansion, I knew right away that he had woken up, so I hurried to bring him something as he must be hungry for sure".

Looking at him closely I notice that his tone of voice is polite with tinges of immense respect for me. demonstrating a real concern for my well-being. Wow, the configuration of loyalty exceeds my expectations.

"I appreciate the gesture, but being a god I have no need to ingest food."

[I think you'd better eat something]

"and that because Sarasvi?"

[I found out that one of the reasons why you were spending more D.E than other gods is that your body was consuming it to keep your body healthy, as if it were nutrients. so I commissioned Grimsby to start a garden to grow vegetables for you to ingest and no longer consume D.E]

"Grimsby?"

[sorry for naming him without your permission, but I couldn't keep calling him "servant" every time I needed him to perform a task]

"my lord if you don't like the name given to me by the Sarasvi name system, I can gladly forget about it and accept the name you have devised for me."

Okay? To be honest I think Grimsby fits you. Now, I think I'm going to change my clothes as I don't feel comfortable eating like this."

"You want me to help you change my lord, I made up different outfits while you were sleeping, so you can choose the one you like best."

once he finished speaking Grimsby opened the chest of drawers to reveal thousands of outfits, all different from each other, he must have had a lot of free time to make so many, and where did he get fabric?

"thank you for offering... Grimsby, but I'm not so weak that I need help changing clothes, it will only take a few minutes, can you wait outside?"

"Of course my lord, I will do your bidding" Finishing those words Grimsby hurried out of the room.

"Well, when I meant for me to be loyal I didn't mean this degree of obsessive loyalty, what did you do?" I reproached Sarasvi while choosing an outfit from the attire in the closet, I chose a classic cut black pants, a white turtleneck shirt to emphasize my toned body, and a matching tie, finishing with black leather shoes.

[okay, I may have overdone it with your lessons by emphasizing you as the definition of perfection and intelligence].

"you know what, never mind, you're going to tell me now what other changes occurred while I slept...and how much sleep did I get this time?"
