Overlord: Origin

Chapter 2

In a place where anywhere you look you'll see nothing but white space, a black-haired man lying down on the floor while looking unconscious are to be seen.


Of course, this is Unko. He was lying on the floor for a couple of minutes already, and even though he looks like unconscious, he was awake from the very beginning. He was just pretending.


But after a few minutes, he realized that what he's doing is practically pointless so he finally decided to stand up while acting like he just regained his consciousness and also a bit confused.


When he tried to look around, he saw nothing but pure white space.  He was all alone, no one can be seen within the range of his eyes. He didn't know whether this space is infinite or not but he didn't dare to know. He just stays still and waits for something to come. If ever there is.


"... I'm not supposed to ask but where the hell am I?"


After a couple of minutes, he finally voices out his Question. But no one answered. He waited for a couple of minutes more but when he got tired of standing and looking around, he decided to just sit still and relax.


"... Hello, How're you doing child?"

When he was about to sit, a voice of a woman suddenly rang out from his back. He was startled by it and immediately turn around to look who it is.

"... Woah! Wait, Who are— I, I mean. Can I ask who are you? ..... P— please~." Unko said with an awkward tone.

The moment he heard a voice, he most likely know his situation already. No, actually, he already know it ever since he arrived in this place, that's why he is waiting for something in the first place. He just let his guard down since the woman that appeared behind him decided to appear when he is already planning to rest and take a break.

So if his Isekai knowledge is right, since all the things that had happened to him till now is pretty much a perfect formula for an isekai story, then right now, the being that appeared in front of him is a God, or at least something like that.

That's why Unko immediately changed his tone the moment he realized this. Both his speech and tone became respectful in an instant. He can't afford to offend this woman by speaking in an informal tone.

So after he throw the question to the woman, she immediately answered back with a slightly amused tone.

"... Well of course you can.... I am, an avatar of the god that was assigned to be your guide until you leave this realm."

She suddenly raises her arms wide and a light suddenly appears around her. She maybe thinks that it makes her look, holy.

Meanwhile, while this is happening, Unko is staring to the so called Avatar of the God, really serious.

The moment he saw the God's face, he was immediately hit by a familiarization. Yeah, for some reason, she looks very familiar for Unko. Unko tried to think hard as he looks towards the God's face really intently, and as seconds goes by....

"Ah!" He finally realized why.

".. Uuh, Umm, God? Can I call you that?"

"... Yes, You May." The God answered with an unchanging expression.

"... Um, okay.... Then, my question is... Is— Is that, your real form?" Unko throws the question with a nervous tone.

The God look at Unko for a moment before answering his question...

"Hmm... No my child. I don't have a real form. This form of mine was nothing but an image that came from your mind. Before I appeared in front of you, I look into your mind and find the image you adore the most and like and took it as my current form."


"... Uhh, i-is that so? Good thing that it's not."


When God heard this, a confused expression appeared on her face, wondering that maybe, something is wrong with the image she used.

"... What's wrong with the image? I thought that you'll like it." She tilted her head while Questioning him.

"... I-i mean, it's true that I liked it. But I think that seeing an image of a P—Pornstar is really not suited for me in this situation as it is giving me a really... weird feeling instead." Unko said with an awkward expression.

The god stares at him for a moment and she suddenly closes her eyes, and once she opens it again. Her eyes are completely different. It looks like you are looking at the stars in the night sky. It was pitched black with a shining dots of lights around it. She stairs at Unko for only a couple of seconds before she closes her eyes again and turns it back to normal.

"... I see, I understand. If that is the case, then." She snaps her fingers and suddenly, a light covered her whole body, it only lasted for a couple of seconds and the light slowly died down. When the light completely died, the look of the one that is standing in front of Unko, changed drastically.


"... Now, Would this be fine?"
The look of what used to be a Woman, changes and is now exactly look like Unko's uncle. Yeah the same Uncle that raised her ever since he was child.

Unko was a bit surprised when he saw this, but it was immediately replaced by a genuine smile on his face. But when remember he just died, he felt a bit sad. He didn't manage to fulfill his promise to his uncle or even say his farewells before he died.


"... Yeah, thank you for your consideration. it's really perfect." Unko replied to God that has the image of his uncle with a smile.



"... That's good. And also, no need to talk politely to me, it's completely fine. Don't worry about it too much. There's a reason why I picked the image of the person you adored and like the most. It's so you can develop a feeling of familiarity with me and converse with me more casually. So you can stop worrying too much now." The God said to Unko like he already noticed the worries he has the moment he spoke towards him.
