In a place where an unknown existence created the world according to its will. Sometimes it creates worlds for fun and destroys them without caring. But some almighty beings love their own worlds as if they are their children. They would do anything to help and heal their children.
What are these mighty beings? Are they human like us? Or are they just energy created from another unknown existence?
Let's just put those questions away for now.
In a world called Baiyuan, an existence is being created from a trace of memory from a place called Earth. The memory belongs to a single man called Feng Yuoyan, a former office worker. He died in the office because of overwork, stress, and a heart attack. At the last moment, he wanted to live another life, fulfilling it. He wanted to leave behind some legacies for later generations of humans to at least remember his name. But that is just a pipe dream now.
In a dark space where his eyes could not detect any light, he felt like his feet were floating, but he did not feel like he was falling at all.
"What am I doing here? Is this the famous afterlife event? I don't see any road, sea, or gates. I should not have believed the story written in books."
Suddenly, a female voice emerged.
"Hello Yuoran, nice to meet you."
Feng Yuoyan was startled by the sudden sound. But he managed to adjust his demeanor as he expressed his greeting back.
"Hello, my name is Feng Yuoyan, a thirty-five-year-old and single man."
"Hm, you are really funny. I don't know why you are still single to this day."
Feng Yuoyan's face became reddened like a ripe apple. But he managed to calm his embarrassment and awkwardly replied.
"Who are you? Why am I here?"
The female voice paused a moment then continued.
"Oh, my bad. I should introduce myself. If we use your knowledge from your world, I should be called a goddess. I create worlds and destroy worlds if they are exhausted. But I don't want to destroy them. You know, they are like my children. That is why I reincarnate you here using my energy. So you are also my child."
Fen Yuoyan was an orphan and was brought up by the government. When he was old enough, he managed to find a job in a company. He thought he would be free and focus on his dream. He was too naive at that time. He did not know that the real challenge had just begun. If he had parents, they might have constantly warned him or given him life experience. He somehow felt a closeness to the voice. But he did not know whether this was from a life without a mother's care or if he was now an entity created by the voice. But he did not care much.
"Why did you bring me here? You wanted me to do something for you, right?" he asked.
"Clever, aren't you, my son?" the voice replied.
"So what am I supposed to do?" Fen Yuoran asked.
The voice seemed pleased and it continued,
"Not much, you can relax and work at the same time. I won't overwork you like your previous boss. I am your mother after all. I love all my children."
Fen Yuoyan did not know how he should feel after hearing the comment. The first thing he should feel was relieved that he would not be forced to overwork. Secondly, he felt the pressure of another task that he needed to complete.
It seemed like it knew Fen Yuoran's thoughts. The Goddess's words reassured Fen Yuoyan, "Don't worry too much about the mission I will give you. You know, I create and destroy worlds. If you don't succeed, I will just destroy it. I just wanted to save it as my last effort, and I chose you to take up the post."
Fen Yuoyan finally felt relaxed.
