Light and Darkness: Barimah's Odyssey

Miracle

The girl appears in a realm, this is the divine realm, a place inhabited by gods. A wave spreads out of the girl as it covers the entire divine realm. A map is made in her head, a section of the map is blinking.

“That must be where the god who cursed her lives.” She vanishes as she appears in a bed chamber, on the bed were 3 people/gods. They seem to be up to something.

“Having fun?” the 3 people are startled up and their faces are now seen, a god and 2 goddesses. They are surprised about how a little girl appears all a sudden.

“Who are you?!” the god roars out loud as a shockwave leaves him, he rises to his feet of 7 meters as he releases his pressure in the room. He’s trying to suppress the little girl but she doesn’t even notice it.

Girl looks at the goddess on the right with red hair and white skin, “Why did you curse the little girl?”

“What little girl?” the red-haired goddess still has no idea what is happening.

“YOU DARE IGNORE ME?! I’M THE PRIMORDIAL GOD OF DESTRUCTION!” the god releases pressure from him even more as the second goddess, a fish woman of some kind kisses his cheeks.

“Calm down sweetie, you don’t have to waste your mana on a small fry like that.”

“Licia, she lives in Zolkia.” The little girl asked.

“Oh, I remember. I cursed the little twerp because I wanted to see her suffer. Seeing the beautiful little ones suffer is quite entertaining.” The red-haired goddess chuckles. They are gods, they think no one can harm them.

“*Sighs* Every universe has gods of these kind” The little girl speaks to herself, “Now I know why Master nearly wiped them out.”

The god of destruction is confused by what the little girl said, “What do yo- “

Energy/Mana left the girl as the 3 gods are strangled in the air. Shock fills their faces especially the god, he is a primordial god, the strongest of the strong. And a little girl has him as a toy.

“A primordial god, ancient god and…… hah, you’re only at god rank. There’s no need to waste my breathe on you, I’ll start with the fish. Although innocent you walk with the corrupt.” she opens her hands as EP/Energy/Mana leaves it as it makes an EP arrow and blows her head off. “As for the primordial loser, DON’T PISS ME OFF!” she made a pulling gesture with her hand as the primordial god is sucked dry of his EP. He loses his divinity and becomes mortal. Worse of all she even makes him as strong as a 10-year-old. She makes a drop gesture with her hand as a rift appears below the 2 remaining gods. The former primordial god drops to the Under realm. A realm filled with the enemies of the gods, the devils.

The former god, “ARRRGGHHH!” and he fell. Red hair goddess was choking while speaking, “P…P….Please…spare me.”

“Spare you? You cursed a little girl for fun…. Alright, I won’t kill you” Red hair goddess seems hopeful” I guess I need a new stuffed toy.” The goddess is confused but she understood toy which sent shivers down her spine.

Girl drops her stuffed animal as it changes into flesh. The flesh is groaning in pain as tears are seen around the eyeballs and it dies. Red hair goddess is so scared she wants to cry, “W…W…Who are you?”

“A child of Nightmare.” Replied the girl. She made a clasping motion with her hands. The goddess disfigures and molds into a pink stuffed monkey. She caught it and checked it out.

“So a monkey huh. Don’t worry, you’re still conscious though you can’t do anything. I thought of making you lift the curse but it wouldn’t benefit me if you did it, so don’t worry about the curse.” The goddess is pleading in pain as a stuffed animal but….

She makes another rift and walks through it, no one heard anything or even sensed her.

Back on earth, Flint wakes up in the morning around 5am, things are different as a display is before him. It shows his name under a big ‘WELCOME’ right before his eyes. The words are typed before his eyes as he hears it in his head.

“Wha! Wha!” He fell off the bed, “What’s this!” he stares in fear at the display.

“Calm down, I’m SSTM DC. I just activated 6 hours ago and an ally.”

“An ally?”

“Yes, my objective is to help you grow strong.” Flint tries to calm himself.

“I prayed for a miracle for my sister, not for me….. Wait, can you cure diseases?!” he is getting his hopes up.

“From my Knowledge Base, No…..” Flint felt his hope disappear, “But I can show you the ingredients needed for a cure, provided I can determine the disease.” Flint has his hope returned.

“You can tell me the ingredients I need? Then how do I show you?”

“I see what you see.” Flint ss still for a while, then he gets up and rushes out of his room and turns to Licia’s. he sees his mum asleep by her bed, he walks towards Licia and stares at her.

“Scanning……..”Licia is scanned as her body and organs displayed before Flint. Good thing he has no knowledge about anatomy.

“Scanning complete. Analysis complete. Target has traces of Divine EP residue. Conclusion, a curse.”

“What! A curse.” Despair is creeping up on him again.

“Get these herbs and boil them for her to drink. It will nullify the curse.” Flint was shocked, yet he recognized the herbs.

“Nullify?..... I know these herbs.” He leaves the room at full speed to the farm. He reaches there and plucks the herbs which were only 3. He rushed back into the kitchen and sees Aku there, her hands are shaking as she tries to make breakfast. Flint barges in,

“Flint! Wha! Huh! What are you doing!” Aku is surprised by his sudden entrance. Flint has taken a pot and has herbs in his hands, he starts to boil it on the stove as he is silent. The Mysterious little girl appears on the tree top and is watching this with a smile on her face.

“Flint! STOP!” Aku holds him.

“Let me go Aku, I think this can save Licia.” Aku looks deep into his eyes and lets him go, in a while the mixture boils as SSTM DC notifies him. Flint runs upstairs and is stopped by his mother

“Stop, what is that?!”

“It’s a cure.”

“Those herbs can’t cure anything, you’ll kill her.” Just then his father walks in. “Let him do it Patricia, we have no way to help her. She’ll die anyway.”

“So we let him poison her?!” Patricia is frightened at the words.

“I’m willing to risk it for this tiny shred of hope than to lose my baby girl” John speaks with his voice breaking and tears started to stream down his eyes.

“….. Okay.” Patricia steps aside as Flint goes to Licia’s bedside and slowly pours the mixture into Licia’s mouth. They pray in their hearts for a miracle, and 1 happens.

*Cough Cough Cough*

“Li. Li!” Patricia is the first to react, she goes to Licia and sees with her own eyes as Licia opens her eyes, “Mama, my throat hurts.”

“Licia!” John moved so quickly to the bedside as he holds her hands, “My little girl.”

“What’s wrong?” Licia has no idea what happened. Flint watches with a smile as Aku hugs him whispering, ‘Thank you, thank you, thank you’.

Patricia leaves quickly to prepare a meal as Aku follows her to the kitchen. Leaving John, Flint and Licia in the room.

“Licia, wait for you mother, okay?" John spoke to Licia with joy.

”Okay.” She still had no idea what happened.

John turns to FLint, “Come with me son.” Flint goes to hugs Licia before following John to his room. When he enters, John hugs him tight. “Thank you so much. Thank you for not giving up.” John says as tears streams down his face though he tries to stop it.

Flint also teary, “Dad, you said a man mustn’t cry no matter what. But I’m just so happy!” they hug again. “It’s all thanks to the miracle from God.” The Mysterious girl slips and falls from the tree top to the ground *BAANNG*

“Which god? Tell me so I’ll worship Him.” John is curious as to which god makes this miracle.

“The God who listens.”

John was surprised, “I’ve never heard of such a God. Then, to the God who listens, thank you for the life you spared.”

The Mysterious girl got up and dusted herself, “I guess the Creator is to thank since He made it possible for us to win our war.”

The news reaches the people as they celebrates the recovery of a little sun in the village. The SSTM DC is silent this whole time as they celebrate. Well, the men went on a drinking spree and their wives yelled at them, the usual.

The Mysterious girl watches as they celebrate with a grin, she waves her hand as a screen appears before her. “What type of missions should I give him? Heheheheh, this is actually fun.”
