Jaune Arc sat in his small but cozy apartment, a gift from his parents who had encouraged him to find his own path. The place was modestly furnished, with a single bed, a wooden desk, and a small kitchenette. Sunlight streamed through the window, casting a warm glow over the room. As he leaned back in his chair, Jaune's mind wandered back to the day he was expelled from Beacon. It still stung, but he was determined to make something of himself.

Jaune: Okay, let's see what this GOD System is all about.

He opened the GOD System interface, a translucent screen appearing before him. He navigated through the various sections, curious and slightly overwhelmed.

Skill Tree: Empty.

Inventory: Empty.

Monster Index: Empty.

Divinity: Empty.

A soft chime sounded, and a new screen popped up.

Divine Quest: Parcel Delivery

Jaune raised an eyebrow. "A delivery quest? Well, gotta start somewhere." He tapped on the quest to read more details.

Quest Information: A Package is needed to be Delivered to an Assigned Location. As Soon As Possible.

Quest Giver: Hermes, the Messenger God.

Divinity Rewards: 100 points

Jaune's eyes widened.

Jaune: Hermes? Who's Hermes?

He then quickly remembered the limited pantheon he knew from his world—the Brothers of Light and Dark, the Mother, and the God of the Faunus. Hermes was an unfamiliar name.

Notice!

Would you like to be transported to Hermes' abode?

Yes/No

Jaune hesitated for a moment before taking a deep breath.

"Yes."

In an instant, Jaune felt a strange sensation, like being pulled through a tunnel of light. When the sensation subsided, he found himself standing in a grand hall filled with beautiful marble pillars, golden accents, and the sound of rushing wind. He was in Hermes' abode.

Hermes himself stood before him—a tall, athletic man with curly blonde hair, piercing blue eyes, and a mischievous smile. He wore a simple suit and carried a caduceus staff, the symbol of his divine authority.
