The One Who Collects

When do I... leave here?

Aft..er ..so lo..ng.... I ...t..ought... aft.er.. so l..ong.. i...w.i.ll ge.t. used to ...this.. pain? It...Keep. ge.tti...ng wo...rse.

[My name is Z and I can help you live again]

...Again?...

[Yes. If you do what I tell you to...Not that you have a choice... You will live]

...What do I have to do...

[You will be sent to multiple worlds on a mission to collect things that I want.]

Collect...things?

[Yes. You will collect things like treasure, souls, blood, trees, cars, starsh.i.p.s, bloodlines, etcetera. All you collect will be sent to me and I may reward you on the things.]

...Not that I don't want to go, but why can't you go yourself?...

[I have other things to do.]

[I won't be going with you but I will speak and takes things from you and also reward you.]

[The gift will come in the form of point, bloodline, skill, and many more.]

[Point will be used to get things from a shop that will be given to you in the form of a hologram. You won't be able to share what you buy or I gift you no matter what. And I won't allow it. Only on some occasions. Don't ask me because I will say no.]

[I will also give you the ability to see your statue and other people at your power level or lower. The statue shows your Name, Power Level, PL for short, your abilities, your age, the amount of time you have in the world, AMT for short, and your body and soul statue, like injuries, curse, etcetera, and what you need to heal. It also shows your points.]

..That it?

[No, no, no. That not all. You will be punished if you don't do what I tell you to do. If I tell you to destroy a world, you have to do it. If someone manages to destroy the world before you or someone stops you from destroying the world, I will still punish you. Do you accept it?]

..Yes as long as I live to hear... And as long as I do what you want me to do I won't be coming back here. Can I ask a question?...

[Go ahead.]

...What can be worse than now... I mean death?

[Ohh, the is things a lot worse than where you are now. Right now you are in purgatory. They are eight more levels below you. The lower you go the worse it is. And purgatory is the first level. The more you stay here, the lower you go. That way the pain you are feeling kept increasing.]

Wha...WHAT... NO WAY. Tha... That IMPOSSIBLE... I am going to die...

[SHUT UP!!! You can't even die.]

Ok. Can I ask another question?

[Go on.]

How do you rate how to punish me? And what are the other... Hell?

[You will be punished based on what you disobey me on. Like, disobeying me after I told you to kill an ant will give you less punishment than disobeying me after I told you to destroy a planet.]

[And it's Limbo, not Hell. The type Limbos, from best to worse are Purgatory, Gehenna, Jahannam, Naraka, Diyu, Xibalba, Niflhel, Tartarus, and Abyss. Each type has five levels. Right now, you are on the fourth level of Purgatory. Now imagine how you will fill in Tartarus when you are like this in Purgatory.]

...Are you serious?...

[Yes I am. Now let get. Since you already said yes, let us see your statue. say statue.]

}

I... I am so old. My skill is all in max too. Pain tolerance is max? My dad really did a number on me.

[Yes. You have been here for a long time after all.]

[And your skill is maxed for your world. If you go to another world that is good with medicine, your skills may not be maxed anymore because the different worlds have different settings.]

[Why don't you despise your dad after he did all those to you?]

Oh. I mean my dad still loved me. If not, why did he tell me to get a job to have a better future? And at least he not like those ungrateful friends that talk behind your back. And he did not hate or despise in his eye like my mother did when I was little.

[Oh you remember that? I thought your dad made you forget?]

I remembered after I came here. About her being with my dad because she is a gold digger. About her taking all my dad's research and taking the credit. About her abandoning me after taking me away from my dad so it won't ruin her 'motherly' image. And my dad taking me in after she threw me away. I think my dad was even beating me because he didn't want me to be like him.

Now that I think about it, my dad only beat me when I drool over beautiful girls or do things that are not perfect. Maybe my dad wanted me to be perfect and not drool over any beautiful girls as he did I see.

[Wow. You just enlightened me.]

Like I said, maybe. Ok, forget about that. Why do I have to collect things...

[That for me to know and you not to find out.]

Am I the only one?

[Yes. You are the only one. Now I am going to send you to on your first mission]

Can you please tell me why I have to collect these things?

[OK, what there to lose. I need to expand my shop so you will be collecting the thing I want to put on my shop and I will gift you.]

Why can't you create the things you want?

[I am not Omnipotence like all those other Gods or Devils. I can only create certain things. I am one of those Gods that creates all those system shops as you may call it.]

Don't I already have a system shop?

[The system shop you have is limited to the thing I can create. I need to expand my shop and show those other system shop creators that my shop is better and bigger. Maybe if you do good and collect good things, I can make you my successor.]

Successor? Do you need a Successor? Do Gods die?

[I am a replaceable low God. Maybe if more system creator makes a contract with me, I can get stronger and maybe gain Immortal.]

System creator? Cant, you create a system and form a contract with yourself?

[Is not that easy son. If that can happen, every system creator, stat creator, store creator, and even lottery creator can gain Immortality easily.]

Stats, system, lottery? Don't I have a system created by you?

[Yes]

So what is the point of a system creator?

[System is used to organize the point of the start and shops. Like the haram system, if you put a point into crimson and stamina, it going to give twice the result than the strength system that focuses on strength. The system also organizes the mission when there is no administrator to put the mission. It may also guide the user. This thing I call system is the most basic system that every noob store creator can do.]

So... What the most popular system.

[Everyone knows it's the Harem System. Even people at your earth knows that. Haven't you read a novel about people getting a system or something.]

...I thought it was all fake...

[People that write most novels, mangas, comics, or even make most movies should be considered a legend. They get enlightened and gain knowledge of the history of a world. For example Masashi Kishimoto. He got enlightened from the world of shinobi and learned about the history of the world. So he wrote it as a manga. The personality of the characters and even the way they look are perfect. Except for some minor mistakes. Wait why am I saying so much. Now off you go.]
