Chapter 6- Birth of the Goddess of wisdom
After waking, Aura and I head towards the conference room. I have recently modified it to have a lounge area. We recently started a new daily routine. We eat breakfast in the lounge area while watching some of the important events of the humans so we can plan out where to direct their development.
Aura noticed humans tend to have very few mages. Even though I thought the game system would replicate the stats I set when I created the races, it tends to vary the stats slightly. The rough majority of the human population has stats close to the ones I set but there are many extremes. Some humans may have a strong talent for magic but no talent for being a warrior for example.
Now we have a rough plan for the human's Aura will finally allow me to see the Deity she has been setting up. "Nathan, I have something important to tell you. This new Deity may not have as much knowledge as I do. Especially about system stuff, I am more of a special case." While looking at Aura with suspicion, I think to myself while we move towards the throne room.
I notice ever since Aura came here she seemed to be quite sensitive about her knowledge. She seems to know of knowledge from outside of my last and current world. I sometimes notice her slipping up while researching magic. Especially that time while we were enchanting. I noticed during one of our experiments she used a rune that wasn't discovered yet and she tried playing it off.
My last reason for thinking she isn't a newly born goddess is her resemblance to that girl; the girl that no one else remembers. Could it be the old geezer had something to do with it? However, it doesn't matter to me. She may be hiding things but I still trust her with everything I have. I can't imagine the senile old fart or Aura having any hostile intentions. However, I may visit him one of these days tho and ask the senile old man a few questions.
"That's fine; I guess the old man gave you some previous knowledge on the system." I pulled out the Deity Stone and eject my Creation energy to register it to me, and then I hand it over to Aura. After she was done setting up the template she hands it back.
Looking me in the eyes Aura states with a blushing face "No peaking Nathan just activate it." Not asking any question I activate it while feeling kind of confused why she is blushing.
Ding!
Deity Stone Activated
Name- Athena Garner
Domain- Wisdom
[Author note- These are the settings Aura used for Athena. Nathan can't see this part because he didn't check. Goddess of wisdom, she has a passion for knowledge and innovation. She believes in a balance in all things. Athena is in love with Nathan but knows she is below Aura and will not try STEALING Aura's place as his wife. She is content with a concubine position. She has complete loyalty for Nathan and then Aura as his wife. She will work for the betterment of his worlds and will not become too attached to anyone outside our pantheon excluding unofficial members.]
-Athena POV-
After the yellow light leaves my vision I see them, my family. After being given the gift of being able to stay by his side, I know I must work hard for the people I love.
After kneeling in front of Nathan and Aura I asked for my task.
While they take me for a tour around the divine realm, Nathan tells me I am allowed a research and training area. He had already given me quite a few permissions including setting me as the human's patron deity. He is putting such trust in me; I must prove myself worthy of his trust.
After my tour, we sit down to discuss my tasks. Nathan and Aura want me to help curb the human's tendencies for conflict and get them on the path of development. I will put my utmost effort into completing my first task perfectly. Hopefully, then I will show them their trust isn't unfounded.
When Nathan leaves I should also ask Aura about my nightly responsibilities. Blush Blush.
End of POV
Now we have shown Athena around I decided to let the two girls discuss the collaboration on sharing important information between their two races.
Heading towards the training ground I started to train my magic. I have been training to use simple multi-pattern spells, however soon I want to start training with a weapon. I haven't fully decided which weapon yet though. I plan to look on the market for a training manual, however, Aura and I both realized that there probably are no truly powerful techniques on there. Any sane creator would keep anything too powerful to themselves. I will eventually have to come up with my own unique techniques; however, it will be important for me to learn some foundational combat knowledge.
-POV Eleanor- Human Village –
"Hello, dear child." Suddenly waking up after hearing this voice I was shocked. This is the voice of the goddess. Even though I have never heard our god's voice before I just instinctively knew it was her.
"I have a task for you Eleanor my child. You must unite your scattered tribes under one ruler, to form the first kingdom for the humans. "
After hearing the goddess decree I get to my knees. "This may be Impudent my Goddess... but why me and not my father or someone of power?"
With a small chuckle, the goddess laughed, however, her pressure did not diminish a bit. Her aura was truly fitting for a god. "Eleanor because you have the skills required to bring your people into the new age..." Near the end of Athena's sentence, her words began to fade off.
After feeling that her presence disappeared and I felt strength surge through my body. After checking my status I notice I have gained a level.
Name: Eleanor Nored
Level: 6
Classes - Villager Level 1, Archer Level 4, [High] High Priestess Level 1
Title – One who spoke to God, High priestess to the Goddess Athena, Oracle, Ruler Chosen by the Gods.
After seeing my status I was shocked, I didn't just gain a level. I have gained a rare class. The biggest surprise was my new titles. The High priestess title grants me a blessing from the goddess. As long as I pray to her and follow her teachings, it will be hard for me to succumb to illness and I can borrow an amount of divine energy from the goddess.
After running out of my room to find my father I told him what happened. After showing him my status he told me to wait here. When he returned he had gathered all the important figures in the village. "I am here to announce from this day forward my daughter will be made the head of this village by word of Athena." After hearing my father's words I was shocked and so were the important figures. After my father explained and I show them my status, they all bowed and swore to follow me.
After the villagers found out we had a large banquet. After the banquet, we tried gathering the other villages under my banner peacefully. Many of the village chiefs did not want to give up their power. So after we gained control over around 60% of the villages we waged war on the tribes that wouldn't submit.
After many years of fighting, I finally united the humans and I founded the Divine Kingdom, but I was nearing the end of my life. I was an old woman now nearing 60 years old and I would make my daughter the next queen. Unlike the past, due to my kingdom being made in the goddess's name we settled on making our kingdom a matriarchy in her honor. As I slowly close my eyes I notice a bright space, Welcome Eleanor Queen of the Divine kingdom. Your deeds have made you worthy of entering the top layer of heaven.
End of POV
"Athena, why did you start a massive war within the human tribes?" While asking Athena with a confused and a slight annoyance she quickly began to explain.
"Since we both understood the human's nature we all decided not to completely stop the wars correct?" After nodding my head she continued. "So I wished to form a human kingdom as soon as possible while making them develop metalworking and better construction skills. Due to the humans making the most progress during the time of war it hit two birds with one stone. My final reason is with this war I can begin to instill my laws of war to help stop needless bloodshed or inhumane actions. It is better to do this while they have fewer numbers and not very advanced technology. "
"I'm sorry for doubting you Athena, I thought you might of went on a rampage like the A.I. God can do, so I was a bit worried. Why don't you take a break from working with the humans and come do some research with us? I know you have been working pretty hard on this since you came here and I don't want you to overwork yourself."
Athena let out a small smile and nodded
-Author note-
We are starting to get into the true world-building stage and this is where it's going to start getting good! We won't be always following Nathan and the others but to start looking at the consequences of their actions. Some good, some bad and watch how Nathan and the gods deal with it all. The first few chapters were a bit slow and you couldn't see how their actions affected the world, but we will start to see the effects in the future chapters.
When in the Divine realm he uses creation energy and when he is on his planet he uses divinity. Gods of creation can't use creation energy while they are descended because the body they are in is not their true bodies. That's what allows them to revive after dying in their world.
Aura accidentally made Athena too loyal. She sees everything Nathan and Aura do as great feats or gifts depending on the situation.
Side Chapter- Goddess tea party Part 1
-Auras Bedroom-
"Athena here, have some black tea do you want any sugar?" Aura hands Athena a cup of black tea.
With a slight blush, Athena asks "Miss Aura when are my duties with Nathan" while playing with her cup.
With a happy smile Aura reply's "Since Nathan wants to do it too much with me and I don't think my body will last. I will let you have him every 3rd day. " While Aura said this as her face began to go shy.
"Thank you very much, Miss Aura." Knowing Aura was feeling bashful Athena tried to redirect the conversation. "I have also begun my research on making the loom."
With a happy voice aura replied cheerfully "Very good Athena, there is no need to call me miss either. Even though I am the main wife you will also become his in the future. So we are family now, so tonight I will let you have Nathan, and every 3rd day from today will be your turn for nightly duties."
While talking Aura began to mess with her room. Instead of having a table in her bedroom, she decides to make separate rooms. The room they are currently in will become a meeting place for Nathans women in the future.
To the side of the bedroom, Aura set up a large hot spring for their use and set up a door to the bath in the hallway as well. She placed a bookshelf to mask a secret door. Behind the door hides manikin shaped in Aura's and Athena's shape. On a table inside the room are simple plans for wedding dresses on earth. Aura has been studying dress-making even before she came to live with Nathan.
"Athena, please keep this secret from Nathan, even though we are already his women it is still every girl's dream to have a good wedding."
Athena nodded rapidly. "We better make him promise not to peak into our rooms too."
This is how Athena and Aura have begun making wedding preparations in secret from Nathan and how Nathan had an unexpected visitor that night.
-Author Note-
Aura also has a miss understanding that all men have multiple wives due to Zeus's pantheon male gods having multiple wives. This won't become a super harem series I promise I only have plans for one more heroine so 3 in total. I hope you will like it and thanks for reading my new chapter.
Aura and Athena want to make their dresses from the resources of their world. This also allows them to take it down to the planet without paying points also.
