The item’s power flushed over me in a wrapped warmth with a dark purple glow, pumping me with, Adrenaline? Strength? “Thanks [PLAYER]! You’re so kind for getting me this broach. Let me join your party to repay you!” The [PLAYER] pauses as if they thought this was unlikely or impossible. “Welcome to my party then.” There’s no happiness in their voice like when they recruited [PARTY MEMBER] Zila or [PARTY MEMBER] Abreon, that’s fine though, I’ll prove my worth as a {Mage}.

“[PLAYER]? Are you okay?” [PARTY MEMBER] Zila asks as we meet the tavern. “Just fine, [NPC] Zero will be joining us now” Player explains to [PARTY MEMBER] Zila and [PARTY MEMBER] Abreon. “We already have a mage though” [PARTY MEMBER] Abreon gestures to [PARTY MEMBER] Zila.

“I…. I feel like I can fight” my hand clutches my heart, what’s this feeling? Oh what am I saying, I can throw a punch but there’s never any power behind it. “Welcome to the team then, [NPC] Zero.” I smile at [PARTY MEMBER] Zila’s words.

“May I ask your stats?” [PLAYER] asks, though being in his party he can always see them. I bring up my [STAT] board.

“Name ; Zero
Character Type ; NPC
Class; M̸a̸g̸e̸ Fighter
LvL ; 8
STATS

STR ; 99
MAG ; 13
AGL ; 12
INT ; 8
HP ; 42

“Woah, your strong [NPC] Zero!” [PARTY MEMBER] Abreon points to the STR stat as he speaks. [PLAYER] Smiles like they just struck gold “let’s get that level up” they place their hand on my shoulder and we head off to the forest.

“We’ll you see ‘hero’ I have a plate of spaghetti but they don’t make big enough meatballs for it cause apparently theres not enough meat in the world. So I said ‘sure there is’ and here we are” The hero looked puzzled like my explanation wasn’t good or reasonable. “Look, I’m a titan. That’s a whole different species, if I’m able to it makes sense for me to eat a bunch of humans as an accessory to my food.” The hero stopped for a second. “Your making a meatball out of humans” I nodded. “Okay your thinking of it as disgusting cause you yourself are a human but please note that I did leave a bunch of humans still intact so they can still repopulate and humans were already way to overpopulated so I’m doing a good thing.” They stared at my food nose turned back in disgust. “Why aren’t I part of ‘it’ then?” I let out a hollowed laugh. “Your one of the only mortals who know of my existence, where would be the fun in that? Now I’m getting hungry and I think it’s about time for you to leave.” They just stood there, obviously thinking. “Leave” they scattered off and down my mountain.

I don’t think it’s really a demented god, I’ve always been taught that ‘gods are cruel and can and will do anything they want for fun + boredom’ this is really fun to read though
