Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

When the giant race was trying to invade this world, around 30,000 years ago. The gods were yet to create the barrier around the world's core.

Their mobility was not restricted at the time.

No matter how strong the Giant hero was, he was not capable of creating a seal to stop the red portal.

The gods were the ones who manipulated him from the shadows, leading him by the nose.

Mostly it was thanks to the gods that Fuiren, the giant hero, experienced one enlightenment after another. Not facing many blocks in his research for a method to take care of the portal.

The red portal was a mysterious thing, it originated from another world, but it was strangely connected to this world with its own world core.

This red portal was so deeply connected to the world core, that destroying would be no different than destroying the world core.

This was what bewildered the gods most, making them plan to seal it.

As to why the sun god sent down the revelation, it was so that he could spread his influence broader than before. The more believers there are, the faster he grows.

The Qilin race had to be sacrificed, as they were the only species with the strongest lightning attribute alive.

Unfortunately, there was no god with thunder or electric attributes.

Everyone who became a god had a large range of knowledge. With their collaboration, they came up with a seal that distorted the space within the red portal, by creating a gravitational field around it.

This gravitation field was mostly made of all the Qilins that were sacrificed and the sun gods' power.

However, the seal that was supposed to last for at least 100,000 years was broken by some pawn, created by the giant god.

The gods had underestimated his obsession with the world's core, they had not even noticed the existence of the demonic race, being stuck within the barrier. And because the giant god exerted some of his power to hide their existence.

The gods from the light faction did not dare to destroy the barrier, to recreate it more of the world core would be used. In other words, their evaluation would fall to a not-so-agreeable level.

Rewinding the time for around 20,000 years, they were able to gain room to breathe again.

.....

Zick was aware of philine's ability after Reikel told him all about it. There was no need to worry though, he became a demi-god so no method of a mortal could work on him anymore.

Seeing Zick's future was impossible now.

Zick and Reikel appeared before the red portal, standing majestically on barren ground. It was like a vortex, swirling endlessly.

Both of them had their weapon in hand respectively.

Zick swung the cursed sword, grace, directly beheading the two giants guarding the left side of the portal.

Reikel did the same, killing the other two giants on the other side.

To them, who were demi-gods, this grandmaster rank opponent was easy to kill.

Zick was confident of killing every last one of them himself, he had unlimited stamina so it was very possible. Overwhelming him in numbers was a waste of time in most cases.

Flying right an inch away from the red portal, Zick placed his hand into it. His quasi-divinity began entering the portal, carrying a message within it.

Zick's eyes widened, before contracting rapidly, a smile adorned his face almost immediately.

'Though my profits would be lowered, I will still prioritize my life above it.'

Zick took back his hand after a few minutes and stood at that location calmly, now it was all up to Arianell.

'Ah, Aurel would have to play a part too now.'

.....

Within the barrier around the world core.

The inside of this place was illusionary, with a plain grassland and chairs in the middle of it. It was a dimension created through the gods' power.

Seven translucent figures sat on thrones in a circle. Solemnity filled the atmosphere here, tremors spread across the dimension randomly.

Most of the time, these seven gods let their bodies enter a state of slumber or hibernation, while their will took care of worldly matters. But, right now they all exited their slumber and gathered here to discuss their course of action.

"That blasphemous human did it, huh?" The god of justice, who had three wings protruding from his back and a handsome face with blonde hair, spoke with an unbelieving face.

All this mess was caused by a single human, could there be anything else that could be more humiliating?

Zick was the best example of human trash, he betrayed them and made them spend some of the world core's energy. Then, he now even let the giant race out.

Just a few more hundred years and their task would have been completed. But it all came falling down this instant, they did not worry though.

The Sun god, who had blazing red eyes and long hair, spoke up: "I am on my way right now, after my main body gets here, we will be mopping all these beings of dark."

The goddess of fairness, who was a woman with fair white skin and white hair, looked at The sun god, Velceric with her grey eyes.

"Are you not going to ask the light faction for backup?"

"Unneeded," Velveric said firmly.

Another great god, the god of death also joined in the conversation: "Yes, it is unneeded, my main body is on the way too. We can deal with any being that appears."

Both the great god became serious, they put aside all the other important matters and began moving to this planet.

They did not stop the destruction of the seal because they thought it to be necessary. They could not borrow any more of the world core's power.

Unprecedented undercurrents were brewing, the moment the barrier was destroyed, an immense battle would ensue at once.

"Hmm? Another being of the dark has invaded this world, he seems to be heading towards here too." The sun god spoke while folding his hands.

With another god joining the fray, the barrier started getting destroyed even faster. This new god cooperated with the kururu. Showing that they had some connections.

Deep within the ground, standing upon a spherical barrier, Kururu punched rapidly like a god of destruction.

Two pairs of hands grew from his body, and his body shone in a red glow menacingly. He punched so fast that sonic booms were produced one after another and the shadows of his punches conversed at a single point.

A few hundred meters away from Kururu was another figure, wearing a white mask and wielding a spear.

The god of the spear, Jackert. Green rays left his spear, crashing into the barrier.

This barrier was not meant for defending, to begin with, causing it to start cracking soon.

Another figure joined in their attack on the barrier, it was the god of the mirror. He too was a being of dark, but he had the human appearance of a middle-aged man. Pieces of mirror flew around him, a strange power was being released by these shards of mirror. Like they had a life of their own.

Cracks spread on the barrier, it was already showing signs of breaking. At once, the barrier broke apart, crumbling to pieces.

The presence of the pure energy released by the world core reached everyone. Greed sparked in all the three invading gods' eyes.

It was at that moment that everyone's expression changed at once.

The world core's presence vanished!

Kururu began frantically searching for it, only to feel dumbfounded. The world core was not moved!

It was nowhere in this world. Rage and hatred rose within Kururu, he had been planning for this moment for who knows how many thousands of years.

But now, the world core was robbed and right in front of him too!

'Zick? No, the dragon child with him cannot pull out something like this. Not to say, I did not sense the space fluctuate in the slightest! How can that child have such frightening abilities? It's impossible.'

Kururu never even considered Zick using the space core for such a thing. It was because doing so would mean that Zick would not be able to leave this world anymore.

The other two gods showed varying expressions too. Their gaze moved to the gods who emerged from the barrier, some of them showed expressions smeared with fury.

"You fools!"

A being radiating enough presence to crush the world to smithereens descended from the sky. It was the real body of the sun god!

Another figure covered in a dark aura appeared in the sky too, it was the death god.

Both of them felt immense anger, thinking about the compensation they had to give for not being able to guard this world's core.

They had to get the world core back at all costs!

As time went by, the presence of mana grew dimmer and dimmer. The mana was flying into space.

"Show yourself! You rat!!" Velveric waved his hand, creating two crescent waves shining in a goldish color.

These waves came in contact with something in the sky, causing a black fraction to appear.

"Hoho, I have been found it seems." A man walked out of the void. He wore stylish clothes similar to a suit, and he had a playful smile on his face, but his eyes were cold as ice. The god of the vortex, he was a great god.

Another figure was also revealed in the place the second wave hit. A woman with indigo hair and skin as smooth as silk appeared. She had an ominous presence around her, pressuring the normal gods.

She was a great god too, known as the god of wolves, Sephine.

The death god and sun god, Velveric stood together.

"Was it you who did it?" Velveric eyes radiated killing intent as he said so.

The god of the vortex, Taweir shook his head. They too had just appeared, only to find the world core already stolen.

"I swear by the name of the god of the vortex."

"I too, swear by the name of the god of the wolves." Sephine's melodious voice wafted through the air.

These two gods had come hoping to take away the world's core before these two great gods appeared. But it seems like it was not possible anymore.

Silence descended on the world again.

The culprit had left no proof behind at all, making them grimace. By now who knows how far this person would have run away to.

'We're stumped....' They couldn't believe they were played around like this.
