Ancient God in the Modern World

Allen's graduation will be next week. Then after that, he will head right away to his training.

His predecessor did not have a family. He was orphaned when he was young. His parents were killed by the demonic beasts when they were hunting. He lived his life in the slums along with his sister with the aid of his 'best friend.'

The income of the people in this era comes through hunting. They hunt beasts, demonic beasts, and demons. Though they cause destruction to the humans, they also bring valuable treasures that can be used to strengthen the race.

The apartment of his predecessor is for people that have a meager income. They barely have electricity and water supply. Moreover, soundproofing and security are out of the question. They don't have any. The room is not even bigger than the cell in his past life. It's only three by three meters.

His apartment is on the 78th floor, and it does not have a window and only has a door. Moreover, it did not have proper air conditioning.

They were in a building that was full of people, which was akin to slums.

As Allen arrived at the apartment, he looked around and cursed at what he saw.

"F***! This can't be called a home."

As a wealthy leader in the past, he despised this place. Everything here is so old and is barely usable. The walls and sofas are full of patches. The TV is barely working. You have to pat it several times for it to work.

But on second thought, he was fascinated by the gadgets in this era. Although they do not have divine energies, they have an energy called electricity that they conveniently use. 

Its generation is not a hassle, and it has a variety of uses. They use it in their daily life. The only disappointing thing is his place is shady.

If he had enough divine energy, he could take care of this place at will. But right now, he barely had any. Thus, he had no choice but to swallow his saliva and accept this predicament. 

And, he could only console himself that he would have a new place to stay when his training started. He is not sure of its quality, but, for sure, it would be better than this.

Helaid his weak body on the sofa and looked at his arms. He noticed that he was really thin and scrawny. He couldn't help but wonder how much divine energy he would need for this body to become fit.

After lying for a while, he heard his stomach grumble. He had not tried this before. As a divine spirit with a divine body, he does not need to eat. As long as there is divine energy, he will live.

Allen stood and walked towards the mini kitchen in the apartment. He looked for the food that his predecessor was eating, but he did not find anything. All that was there were the ugly utensils that who knows how many years had been used.

Allen shook his head and felt hopeless. He walked back down to look for food. According to the memory of his predecessor, he needs credit. His credits are placed on his old phone. 

Allen reached for the phone in his pocket and looked at the remaining credits.

"F***!"

Allen cursed as he thought that the powerful Divine Spirit in the past was so poor in his revival. He only has three credits. These three credits are barely enough for a day.

He thought for a while. Then he grinned as an idea got into him. 

He walked out of the apartment and headed in a dark alley. There, he waited for a person, or rather, for someone. Based on the memory of his predecessor, this place is a place for thugs to earn money.

The thugs rob this place very often. And just as he arrived, he heard a young lady screaming for help.

"AHHHHHH! …Help me!"

He followed the source of the scream and found a burly-looking man trying to **** a lady.

This alley is dark, and only a few pass here. Allen speculated that the lady must have passed here alone, then the burly-looking man good advantage of the chance and dragged her into the corner to **** her.

Unlike before he did not receive an influx of divine energy. All he received is the passive divine energy that has been sustaining his thought on his divine slumber.

The lady did not have a strong desire for life. All she wanted was to escape. At the same time, the burly man did not have an immense hatred for the lady. He only wants pleasure from her body.

The lady tries to resist, but the burly man is too strong for her.

Allen walked towards them. Although he is not a saint, he was thinking of helping the lady. Maybe she would praise him for whatever reason that Allen is not interested.

"Release her," Allen said with a voice filled with greatness and vigor. He imitated the tone that the Divine Spirit of Darkness used before he died. 

But he kinda regretted doing it. Because, this made him melancholic about his past. He missed the vast amount of divine energy and his city.

The burly man looked at him mockingly.

"Hey, twig, get out of here before I break you," he mocked Allen.

Allen was stunned. Although he knows that he is thin and scrawny, he does not expect to be called a twig.

He looked at the man piercingly, which gave chills on the man's back.

Allen pointed his finger towards him and said, "Die!"

Just like the other five, they did not know how they died. 

The burly man collapsed on the ground as soon as he said the word 'die'.

The lady was stunned, she did not know what he did, but she did not care. All that matters is that she is saved. She did not care that Allen was skinny as a twig and said her thanks with a voice filled with admiration and praise.

"Thank you!"

Allen felt an influx of divine energy from her. He was stunned and wondered how the lady admired him. 

He did not expect that a simple gesture would give him divine energy. Although it is not much, it is still divine energy.

A light bulb lit up on his mind as he thought of a way to earn divine energy. But just as he opened his mouth to respond. His stomach sounded first. It grumbled as if it was reminding him of its presence.

"F***!"

Allen could not help but curse inwardly in embarrassment. His tummy grumbled at the wrong time.

The lady giggled and said, "as thanks, I will treat you for dinner."

Allen, for an unknown reason, was pumped up by what she said.
