Thirteen years old Javier lay on a tree branch basking the sunlight and day dreaming, ‘When I become god I will eat whatever I want, go to wherever I want’
“Fool what are you doing up there?!” A voice yelled from the ground. Javier looked down, a bright light blocks his view. “Ahh my eyes!!”
“What?”
“Your bald head is reflecting the sunlight!!”
*Thup*
The tree vibrated, and then it snapped. Javier wrapped his arms tight around the branch as the tree fell.
“Are you try in to kill me?!” Javier yelled the moment the tree touched the ground.
“Hopefully,” Santama, a bald ffteen years old kid replied him. Santama started to walk on the first day he was born, his bones was already fully developed. By three, he was stronger than everyone in the village, he ended all the fights with adults with nothing more than a blow. At thirteen he became arguably one of the strongest people in the world.
“Why are you doing here bro?” Javier asked.
“I came to bid you farewell Javier.”
“Where are you going to?”
Santama looked up to the sky, “this village has become too small for me.” He then turned to Javier, “I am travelling the world.”
“If you want to travel the world, then join my guild! Let’s find the one piece together!!” Javier’s eyes sparkled as he spoke.
“Finding the one piece is your goal, my goal is to find someone as strong as me. Besides how do you expect me to join the guild of someone one thousand times weaker than me?” Santama smirked at Javier.
“I am not that weak, dude!” Javier frowned.
“I know, one day we will fight as an equal. So get stronger Javier.” Javier escorted Santama out of the village, then he watched him walk till he vanished from his sight. ‘I need to get stronger’ was the only thought on Javier’s mind as he walked back to the village. He walked to a restaurant in the village called Elrond, the inside was dark, then there was a group of people by the corner in a sort of meeting. Apart from those people, the restaurant was completely empty. The moment he entered, all eyes fell on him.
“Who invited the kid?” a voice said.
“That’s Javier, he lives in the village” Erond, a 45 year old man with golden hair, the owner of the restaurant said, then he got up and started to walk towards Javier, “We are closed for today Javier, come back tomorrow.”
“I am starving bro, and there is nowhere else to eat in this village,” Javier said.
“You can eat in your house!” Erond yelled.
“Nahhhh food at home is boring.” Javier sits down.
“Kid, I will kick you out if you don’t leave. We are having an important meeting right now.”
“I will leave on one condition”
“What condition?”
“If you tell me how I can become strong”
“Stop talking nonsense and get out!!” Erond snarled. Javier turned around and started to walk to the door.
“Wait kid,” The man with white hair stood to his feet, “Why do you want to become strong?”
Javier smiled and looked at the man, “I want to become God.”
“Serious?”
“Yes.”
“Interesting…”
The white haired man dipped his hand into his pocket and threw a potion (A potion is a magical liquid stored in a small bottle) “Don’t drop it.” Javier caught the bottle, “What’s this?” Javier asked as he carefully observed the bottle.
“That is a strength buff, drink it whenever you are at your lowest and feel like giving up. Good luck on your journey.”
Javier opened the cap of the bottle and gobbled down every drop of liquid in the bottle on the spot. Everyone at the restaurant stared at him, shocked, “I said when you are at your weakest…” The white haired guy added.
“I am feeling pretty weak now, anyways thank you for the potion, although I am still hungry.” Javier let out a sneeze so big that the air from his nose pushed him up to the ceiling. Everyone in the restaurant slowly stood up to their feet, “Gan Dolf, what did you give him?” The golden haired elf spoke in a low tune. The white haired guy immediately dipped his hand in his pocket and took out another potion, this one was in a green bottle. His jaws dropped in shock, “I gave him the wrong potion.”
“What Da! What exactly did you give him?” Erond said in shock.
“I gave him the ‘Tear’” The white haired guy said, still very shocked.
“How could you make such a mistake! Gan Dolf!” Erond yelled, “Mistake?” The white haired guy said, then he cleared his throat, “A wizard never makes mistakes, this happened because it was meant to happen.”
“Bro stfu, you have ruined this kid’s life.”
Javier staggered up to his feet, “How did I get up there? Woahhhh!!!!” He started to jump up and down every table in the restaurant, “I can fly, la la la la la la la…” he halted and folded his fist, “I knew it, I will become the strongesttttt.”
“I don’t think he minds,” Gan Dolf said to Erond.
“We must remove that from him or his life will be ruined forver.” Erond said, concerned.
“You are right,” Gan Dolf picked up his sack bag from the table and took out a potion from it, this potion is in a black bottle. Then he threw the bottle to Javier who caught it, “Drink it” Gan Dolf said.
“Why?”
“It will make you normal again.”
“Never!” Javier smashed the bottle on the ground shattering it into many different tiny pieces.
“If you keep that power, you are going to be hunted by the church forever until the day you die.”
“Why?”
“Every human has a dormant ability in them that can only be awakened through that potion, once you drink it you can start using magic. It is just like the forbidden fruit, once it was eaten, those that ate it realized that they were naked. They have always been naked, but the forbidden fruit opened their eyes and made them see it. The potion I gave you is just like that, it makes you see the ability inside you.”
“Oh cool.”
“Not cool! If the church finds out that you have awakened magic, you will be killed instantly. So for your own safety, you have to drink this.” Gan dolf throws another bottle to Javier who dodges the bottle, “Never!”
“Javier listen to him, this is for your own good.”
“Nah, goodbye peeps, see ya’ll later.”
Javier ran out of the restaurant.
