The Hand of God System
Chapter 2: The Hand of God

"D-god? w-are you really a god?" Ryuu said nervously.

"It's true how, as you can see right now, the time of the world stopped for a moment when I came right?" Teo Say.

Ryuu looked around to make sure

"Th-that's right anyway.."

"That's a sign that a God is coming down to earth, but since I want to chat with you, I deliberately keep you conscious."

"That's it.."

For humans, Gods are almighty figures who have extraordinary powers beyond human common sense.

And humans usually make offerings to them in temples as a form of worship of Gods.

But Ryuu, who has nothing to give, is confused about what to give as an offering to the God in front of him.

"You should think about giving me an offering, right? don't think about it, 'cause that's not what I came here for." Teo Say.

Ryuu was surprised because Teo could figure out the contents of his mind without asking.

"A-is that one of the Gods abilities?" Ask Ryuu.

"Ah, right. I can read your mind. It's also one form of proof that I'm a God." Answer Ryuu.

Ryuu now fully believed that the figure of the children in front of him was a God.

Yet he was still at a loss as to why a God would bother coming to earth to meet him.

"J-if I may know, why would a God bother coming down to earth to meet someone like me?" Ask Ryuu.

"That's because I wanted to thank you in person." Answer Teo.

"Eh? thanking you?"

"Yes, I'd like to thank you for helping Pleta earlier."

"Pleta, what does that mean 3-tailed cat?" Ryuu.

"Yes, I want to thank you for helping him before. That's why I've given you a little gift before, right?"

"Eh presents?"

"Yes, if you take a good look, you should have heard a voice in your head just now right?"

Ryuu had indeed heard a voice in his head earlier.

Before the time in the world stopped.

"Y-yes, if it's not wrong the voice said something like...

"The Hand of God." Teo Say.

Ryuu nodded in agreement in response.

But the word God itself had already frightened Ryuu when he heard it.

"God's hand, I did hear that before, but what exactly is it?" Ask Ryuu.

Teo raised his hand.

"As its name suggests, it is the Hand of God. Which means the hand that has the power of a god."

"K-god Power?"

"Yes, for example, like this."

Teo extended both hands forward, and instantly a golden particle emerged from his hand and fused to form a real sword.

Ryuu widened his eyes seeing that before his eyes.

"This is one of the abilities of the Hand of God, namely [Creation].

Ryuu did not believe that the ability was now within him at this moment.

Thinking that he who has no mana at all can have the power of a God.

"But, wouldn't that necessarily require a lot of mana? I have no mana at all." Ryuu.

Teo shook his head hearing Ryuu's words.

Ryuu once again widened his eyes hearing Teo's words.

"N-doesn't need where? does that mean its use is unlimited?" Ask Ryuu.

"As I said, it doesn't require any mana at all, but there is a condition where you may be exhausted if you use it continuously, after all you are a human being and not a God."

"That's it.." Ryuu looked towards his own hand.

"I can't explain in detail about the Hand of God, so you can ask the system I gave your body to help you."

"System?" Ask Ryuu

"Yes, the system is fused into the Hand of God, and you can try calling it yourself later. Then, since my goal has already been achieved, I will leave now. Thanks again for helping Pleta out." Teo Say

Suddenly a light descended from the sky and struck Teo, then when the light was gone the bodies of the children that Ryuu had seen at once the cat he please had disappeared and time went back as it was.

*Wuushh~~{Wind} sounds

Ryuu was still looking towards the place where Teo had been standing while thinking about what had just happened to him just now.

A God came to him and gave him a gift of the Hand of God.

Ryuu thought, that will the Hand of God be able to change his life? who is currently greatly humbled because of the mana numbering 0?

Ryuu slowly looked towards his two hands while again sitting on the meadow.

He thought of what the hand of the god could do, like the [Creation] thing Teo had done.

Ryuu remembered Teo's words earlier, that he could ask about it to the system that fused with the Hand of God.

But Ryuu still did not know how to call the system.

Ryuu slowly whispered to himself to try to summon the system slowly.

"S-system..."

[Are you calling me master?]

"?!" ryuu's body jumped in shock from being shocked by the voice that suddenly emerged from his head.

However Ryuu immediately calmed himself down, and said to the voice.

"Are you a system that merges with the Hand of God?" Ask Ryuu.

[That's true]

"Then can you explain yourself? maybe so we can get to know."

[Of course, I am a system created to guide the master in using the Hand of God, I can give various alloys in the correct use of the Hand of God, if the master wants to ask me about my opinion maybe I can also answer it]

"That's so.. k-in that case, can we determine your name first? because it seems too stiff if I call you the system."

[Of course, what name does the master want to call me?]

"Umm. Since your voice is similar to that of a man, then maybe I'll give you a male name.."

[I can change my voice to female if master wants, this is just my initial setup when I was first installed]

"So yes, but it is better for me to be a man than a woman, so that I may not be nervous when speaking.."

[It was the master's decision]

Ryuu thought for a moment about the name of the man he wanted to give to the god hand system.

And when he had thought about it for 10 minutes, Ryuu said to the system.

"Then, what about Axel?" Ryuu.

[Axis? is that the name the master wants to use to call me?]

"No, I wanted to ask if it might be a good fit for you..

[All the names the master gave me are definitely suited to me, so there's no need to worry]

"Then from now on I'll call you Axel okay?"

[Of course sir]

Axel was already the official name of the system that would become Ryuu's first partner.
