The Growth of a God

Chapter 755 - 13: Twisted Wishes

If things develop according to normal circumstances.

Whether the girl can become a god is another matter, but at least completing the first few transformations should pose no problem.

Unfortunately, just as the girl was transforming from the growth stage to the mature stage, she noticed an anomaly in the Bone Furnace Lamp at home.

According to the special customs of this metamorphosis race.

The girl cremated her parents, who failed to transform, and made a perpetually burning Bone Furnace Lamp from their ashes.

Bone Furnace Lamps, created with the technology of Skeletons, possess the characteristics of being inextinguishable and immortal.

But that day, the perpetually burning Bone Furnace Lamp suddenly extinguished, and unknown patterns and symbols appeared on the surface.

The girl didn't know what they meant.

She simply wanted to wipe off the patterns and symbols on the lamp, but inexplicably summoned the elf hidden within it.

It was a Genie with not the best temper, but it did have the ability to fulfill the girl's wishes.

So, with a sense of trepidation and curiosity, the girl made her first wish—to see her parents again.

"A bit difficult, but not impossible."

With arms crossed over its chest, the Genie said.

Immediately after, the Genie led the bewildered girl out of the city.

First, they took the underground intercity railway express, then transferred to a personal flying vehicle...

Ultimately, the Genie brought the girl to an inconspicuous little town and pointed at a hunting dog in the town.

"That is your father, in this life, he's a hunting dog."

Subsequently, the Genie brought the girl to a vast ocean.

"She is your mother; this is already her thirteenth reincarnation..."

Looking in the direction pointed by the Genie, the girl saw nothing more than a very ordinary small fish.

Even under the influence of the Reincarnation System, the chance for that fish to transform into an intelligent creature wasn't very high.

Over a quite long period, the girl fell into a sort of emotional state.

It was from that moment she realized that life and death in the Mountain and Sea Realm were a cycle, an order.

The basic threshold for transcending this cycle of life and death was to become a god above all beings.

The girl once asked the Genie if she could awaken her parents' memories from their past lives.

The answer given by the Genie was that it was possible, but unnecessary.

If the girl desired, by making a wish to it, it could recreate a pair of "new parents" with all her parents' memories.

Aside from the flesh and soul not being her real parents, these parents would possess everything her parents once had.

Memories, feelings, even all the abilities they had when alive...

After receiving this answer, the girl fell silent.

At that moment, she finally understood that her parents were truly dead.

Soul, body, memories, emotions, and even the elusive destiny...

Missing any link in between means that what the Genie resurrects would no longer be her parents but a puppet inheriting a part of her parents' remnants.

Moreover, gathering all these elements also meant that the girl must kill more than one life.

"I won't kill other lives to resurrect my parents."

"If my parents were really alive, they certainly wouldn't want their rebirth to be built upon the death of others."

Looking at the silently Genie before her, the girl relievedly made her second wish.

"I want a companion, a companion who can be with me till the end!"

When the girl made this wish, she held infinite anticipation.

Since the past cannot be retraced, then let us face the future!

The girl wanted a fellow of like mind, a partner who would not abandon each other even in the face of death.

"If that's what you want, then I'll make it happen for you!"

The Genie, as usual, was indifferent, as if the wish meant nothing to it.

Indeed, the girl met a fellow sharing her ideals the very next day.

That fellow was also a special individual of the Metamorphosis Species, having undergone one more transformation than the girl, entering the mature stage early.

He called himself Nagisa, a very rare humanoid metamorphosis species.

Except for two angled horns inserted diagonally on his forehead, Nagisa was identical to an Immortal in all aspects.

According to the Genie's explanation, the humanoid form in the Mountain and Sea Realm is the most perfect Innate Form, and Nagisa, possessing a humanoid form, would surely accompany you to the very end.

With Nagisa's help and companionship, the girl enjoyed the happiest period since her parents' death.

Sadly, such happy times did not last long.

Due to a mishap, Nagisa found out that he appeared because the girl made a wish to the Genie.

The always confident and proud Nagisa, for the first time, fell into doubt about his own life.

Was his encounter with the girl arranged?

Were the experiences of his past life real? 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Was he a fictional existence from the start?

...

Once such questions rooted themselves, they would never disappear.

Watching the gradually dispirited Nagisa, the girl first realized the ominousness of the Genie.

Although her initial intention of each wish was good, the process and result of the wish being fulfilled always defied her expectations.

Yet, before the girl's introspection could yield any real significance.

The originally dispirited Nagisa suddenly became energized.

Only this time, the reinvigorated him appeared particularly radical and insane.

Because he doubted his own life, doubted his purpose...

Nagisa urgently wanted to prove that he indeed was a living being, not a false entity created by a ridiculous wish.

"I want to kill you!"

When Nagisa met the girl again, he had already completed his third transformation.

Bathed in streams of blood, with muscles and veins exposed, Nagisa appeared horrifying like a Demon.

Especially when Nagisa gripped the girl's neck with one hand and gazed at her with an expression that was simultaneously insane and calm.

The girl saw hatred, anger, unwillingness, and emptiness in Nagisa's eyes.

"Since you are my Creator..."

"Then if I kill you, can I prove that I indeed lived once?"

Facing Nagisa's cold gaze, the desperate girl made her third wish to the Genie.

"Save me... I want to live... I want to become truly immortal..."

In Nagisa's surprised expression, the Genie which appeared before him for the first time calmly said.

"As you wish, I hope you won't regret it this time."
