The Divine Tree, Lord Exodius

Aarth slowly turned back to look in front of him. There was only a tree, but it seemed very tall, far higher than he could see!

It reached the clouds, no, higher!

While he was studying the tree, the voice one again spoke. "It can be considered as me giving birth to you as I have given you life, young one", with an ancient tone.

"I am hailed as the Divine Tree, Exodius!", and at that countless memories forcefully inserted in by the one calling himself as the Divine Tree Exodius.

Amongst Aarth's shock,

In Aarth's mindspace, countless images flashed by while he studied them. After what felt like years he was soon brought to the present, due to the vast amount of images.

He soon learned that this Divine Tree connected the heavens, abyss, and mortal word in planet Vargae. That's right, a Divine Tree!

"Sir hailed as Exodius", Aarth said while trying to stop his anger of forcefully having memories inserted into his mind, "But what am I?"

"Hmph, you dare call me Exodius instead of my full name?", The voice slowly replied, "Not even the rulers of the three realms dared do so. Tell me why?", while Aarth's mind almost got crushed.

"You're just a tree, forever to be stuck in one place unless moved", Aarth then said as he gritted his teeth. "Just tell me what I am?"

The divine tree was shocked, when has a realm ruler dared talk back to him, let alone a mere mortal? Hmph, presumptuous! The Tree thought to itself in anger, but then decided to forgive him for he was his first 'child'.

"You, my child", the Tree continued, "have been born as a titan, a race born for strength!"

"A titan!?", Aarth said in shock. He knew what a Titan was from reading about the Tarnus civilization's history from it was a mere planetary civilization.

With that then came excitement.

In myths, it has been depicted Titans to be thousands of meters tall, with great enough strength to hold mountains!

In his opinion, the dragons of myth weren't the strongest race, it was the titans!

"You are an abyss titan, the first of its kind", The divine tree transmitted spiritually.

"The planet Vargae is in deep turmoil, due to various factors and schemes among the rulers", The divine tree once more said, " I have hereby given the task of you becoming strong enough to destroy planet vargae and let the planet restart!

Aarth felt suspicious, why couldn't Exodius do it himself?

After all, he had unfathomable strength. So, why?

Thinking of this, he directly stated it out. "You're called the Divine Tree and have unfathomable power, so why can't you do it yourself?, are you merely a kitten trying to play the dragon?"

"Y-YO-YOU!, HOW DARE YOU", if Exodius had a face, his face right now could be seen as swollen and red, ready to explode!

"Hmph, the so called "Divine Tree" is easily emotional?", Aarth sneered.

"Quit your intolerable acts, I can kill you with but a mere finger", Exodius quickly regained his composure.

"Again, from this day henceforth, you shall be trained by the mighty me!"

"What type of training?, let me remind you, i'm not bisexual".

"..."

"Exodius?"

"You there?"

"Please, I didn't meat it!. you know it's quite lonely over here.", Aarth started trying to redeem himself.

After yelling for what seemed like hours, Aarth then grew tired.

He then started to inspect himself.

Strangely, he looked practically the same as his last life but only more fearsome.

Even he was shocked by his own looks.

Turning his attention back to The Divine Tree, he thought to himself, 'is he dead?'

'so much for all that talking'.

Aarth soon unstably got up, due to the unfamiliarity of the body, and reached out to touch the tree.

The second he touched the tree, in his mindspace, he saw a message. It read, 'If you're hearing this, I, The divine Tree Exodius have unfortunately died. It has been due to my lifespan ending. I have lived trillions of years and I hereby decree my life over. I have left an inheritance for you, and I hope you're able to realize my last wish of restarting planet Vargae, abyss titan".

...

...

"I guess even the powerful can't escape the fate of death", Aarth wondered. "After all, even the likes of this Exodius guy died."

If The Divine tree were here and heard this, he would've spat blood!

When has he been called as such!?

'No worries though, I'll just become a hundred times stronger than him", Aarth thought. "If that isn't enough, 1000! 1 million!"

It can be seen this mortal called Aarth has big dreams!

Just Exodius was enough to become the strongest in the three realms, let alone someone a hundred or a thousand times stronger than him!
