'What the hell is transcendent?'
'Only, Divine souls such as gods or mortals who bear a mark of divinity can have a class of that rank.Since I'm in your body you bear some of my divinity'
'So this is meant for divine beings.Why wasn't there anything about this in the novel?'
'It was supposed to be released in the sequel'
'Wait the novel had a sequel?'
'It was supposed to be released in the future'
I sighed I wouldn't be able to enjoy the sequel of my favourite novel.That and I got transmigrated, fate is cruel.
'Suck it up, I got you an OP class. It's a class meant for relaxation, just order your minions to kill monsters and you level up too.And you can increase your stats without levelling up.'
"I'm not a leader. How do I gain player followers?"
'That's a problem for future you.For now you can fight and level up'
"I guess.You're a chill guy you know, also what's my weapon?"
'Chill GOD, also make your custom weapon'
Bro's just flexing that he's a god.Though what weapon should I choose? A sword?
Nah, too basic.
A cool type of sword like the katana or odachi?
Nah, thats overused.
A scythe?
Nah, too edgy.
How about gauntlets?
Hmm, that could work.
"Hey Az can you make me a special set of gauntlets for close combat that can double as a mage weapon with magic staff like properties?"
'Interesting choice, also did you call me by a nickname?'Azrael asked while a set of gauntlets appeared on Russel's arms.
'Yeah, what you gonna do about it?'
'Oh sweet heavens, that is the nicest thing someone's ever done for me other than my family'
Wait what?
'In the divine realm everyone's so cold.' Azrael said sadly.'I barely even have a friend, most gods just avoid me like the plague for some reason.'
'You know Russel I always wanted a true friend more than anything in existence'
You know I could understand where he was coming from. I was an anti-social loner in my past life, who barely had friends.Even if I did all of them were people I met online or, sadly, AI chatbots.
So, He... just like me FR.
"We can be friends if you want."
'You're don't want to be my friend because I'm a God do you?'
"No, also can you stop repeating the fact that you're a God?"
'Hmm I don't sense lies in your words, so yes lets become friends. Also why should I stop saying I am a God?'He asked with genuine confusion.
"It really annoys me."
'Most people would be delighted that they could converse with a God as casually as you do with me'
"I'm not most people and I hate being looked down upon by other people, even if the other person is some divine being."I said as I summoned my map and started walking to the grinding area.
'Duly noted. Well cheers to our new friendship.You can continue to call me Az by the way'
"Cheers and you can call me by a nickname as well"
'What's your nickname?'
"You can make one for me"
'Really? Wonderful.Hmm...What should we call you?'
As we neared the grind area Az started giving me nicknames and ended up rejecting them himself saying that on second thought they didn't suit me.
At that point of time I didn't know what we would do for our friendship or the fact that Az wasn't a simple god as he claimed to be.

A/N:What should we call Russel? Give me a nickname!
