Christa's POV:
Hi, I am Christa, I hold the title of the Goddess of beauty but even though I am a goddess I still have some rules to follow. I cannot go to the human realm with no consent from the elders and I can't have any kind of interaction with any human.
Let me say I am quite a troublemaker, I have the power to change my form and control minds. I would sometimes sneak out to the human realm to party because even though the buildings and gardens in the heavens are absolutely beautiful, it is no fun there so I would go to the human realm or what others call Earth. I would put on a disguise as a female human then erase the memories of the people I partied with to leave no trace of my existence.
It was fun because I could hang out with humans because most of the gods are very serious and cold. Take my father for example, he is the god of willpower and strength, he rarely talks to me and when he does it is when he tells me to do better at something or gives me a lecture about the purpose of life and stuff.
I am also the holder of the Diamond of Light because the goddesses who hold the title of goddess of beauty are entrusted to safeguard the diamond. My mother was a goddess of beauty and before her was my grandmother and so on, you get the idea.
The title can only be passed down when the previous goddess has already died or has been contaminated with Zinos, a virus that sucks the power from a god then feeding the power to the demon that created it and will continue until the god is as powerful as a human.
I went to Earth one night to party in a what humans call a bar, in a city they call Osaka. I am a goddess so I have the ability all gods have, Omispeak, you can talk and understand any language. Just like usual I change into a woman then party for one night.
That night the worst happened, I got caught by my Father and was sent before the heavens' court for a trial. It was said that I have been charged for sneaking to the human realm and so I was sent to 3 months of confinement at home. Harold, God of Justice and Truth ordered me to hand over the diamond of light which I wear as a necklace.
It was then I realized that the guy I was with took the necklace. I was silent but then Merlin, the god of wisdom and my teacher projected my memories before the court and boy where they angry.
When they saw that the diamond was stolen they told me that I would be banished to Earth and my powers would be removed, all except Omispeak.
I begged them to not take away my powers and told them that if they take away my powers there would be no goddess of beauty to answer the prayers of humans. They said that my title will be open and remain open until I retrieve the diamond.
My father had no choice but to agree with the court and gave his blessings to banish me. Not a moment to soon Fingard, the god of emotion and soul, trapped me inside the body of a woman who lived in Osaka, the placed I lost the diamond.
The woman I was trapped in just commited suicide by drowning herself in the tub. Her name was Diana Chu, she found out she was cheated on just last week and she was disinherited by her parents two days ago.
I could see all her memories and I actually feel sorry for her.
I made a promise to avenge her death before returning to the heavens. I am not antmore Christa, the goddess of beauty. Now I am Diana Chu the person who in the name of revenge shall go up against the world.
When I entered the body, I felt so many new things. I felt pain, regret, sadness but most of all I felt the cold. The water in the tub was so cold I felt like I was going to freeze. I didn't know what to do because I never had these feelings before.
I then found what humans call phone, Merlin said it was like a little gadget that you can use to communicate to others even though they are far, it can also take all the light rays bouncing around and uses glass to redirect them to a single point, creating a sharp image or what people call photo.
With the help of this phone and with the teachings of Merlin I put on some clothes then went outside. Humans are quite fascinating beings they trade things with a piece of paper called money. I just don't understand how a piece of paper can be worth a full meal.
I used the phone to find a library so that I might find more information about the human world. When I reached the library it was smaller than I expected.
I stayed in the library until dusk, I learned alot of stuff like work, the law, and sexual intercourse, apparently that is how humans perform recreation, gods don't do that instead they channel their about 1/4 of their power and them combine their power with another god then they combined power will form a body.
After that wonderful day full of learning I decided to purchase some new clothes because her clothes were so dull and just doesn't match my taste. I went to a mall (A place where humans exchange the paper they call monet with various goods like clothes and food).
Most of the clothes were not to my liking until I entered a store called Channel, the fabric and the style of the clothes were so luxurious and beautiful. I was like entering another heaven. I then chose 20 dresses,(I have a thing for dresses).
When I started to exchange money for my clothes the cashier said it was not enough. I could not understand I bought 20 dresses so I should trade it with 20 peices of money, right? She said they are worth 78,000$. "Well, that dosen't make sense", I thought.
(20 minutes of the cashier explaining)
I was so confused to I just asked what my money can buy. So in the end all the money I have was only worth 3 dresses. I then the idea came to me "I should try earn money", so I searched using my phone how to earn money. The results were I should find a job by going to a places like a shop, cafe or anywhere then ask if I can have a job.
While looking for a job I always wondered why were children in the streets and where are their parents. I asked a little boy where his parents were. He said that he had no parents and he lives in the alleys.
I asked him why qould he live in the alleys, why not live in a home full of comfort. He then asked me if I was really that ignorant. Afterwards I asked him to take me to the placed he lived in.
What I saw was very depressing people very thin and almost everyone was ill. They had little to no food and they never even bathe. They slept on the cold sidewalk and used rags as clothes. I finally understood what living in Earth really was and how important money really is.
Before returning home, I asked the boy what his name and age was and if he wants to live with me. He said that his name was Andrew and he was 6 years old but he refused to go with me because I was a stranger to him.
I told," I am Diana Chu, I am 23 years old and that I am new here so I want you to show me Osaka and become my little brother. That is if you want to, I will give you food, shelter, clean clothes but most especially I will give you a family.
He agreed but under one condition, that I will legally adopt him as a son. I told him that I can't have a son and asked him if I were how can I make it become legal. He then said that he would explain everything at home.
We then arrived back home then he told me I should register his name in the government as my adoptive son. He said that I was already of age and thatwith a stable financial status I can do it easily. I then told him that I didn't have a job and I was still looking for one.
He asked me why would I adopt a child if I didn't even have enough money to support him. I said that I will do my best tomorrow to find a job and told him to take a bath, eat then sleep.
I then wondered why was I so attached to the child then a memory came flashing in my mind. Diana was had a miscarriage after knowing that her fiance cheated on her. Andrew is precious I shall protect him and take care of him as long as I stay in Earth.
I stayed up all night and was able to schedule an interview as a secretary of a big business but it was with the help of Andrew. He also stayed up to help me.
I woke up early and left a note in the fridge to tell Andrew that there is fried rice in the table and that he should stay home.
I didn't have any money so I had to walk 3 km in heels just to reach the building. On my way I bumped up with a woman, she was wearing luxurious clothes and many jewelry but it was her face that surprised me, I felt like I know her.
Then a memory came flashing, she was the I caught my fiancee, by the way his name is Fang Ku, was sleeping with. She then shouted at me, "You idiot, don't you know who I am? I am Mina Xang, the fiancee of the CEO of the Ku Industry".
"Fiancee? This ugly had is the one that this body's fiancee cheated with. Her past fiancee is either an blind or a complete idiot, this body is far more good looking than this hag infront of me", I was think, at the same time trying my best not to laugh.
I then told her I was sorry and that she should not waste any time on me becasue I was a nobody. She then told me to leave and said I was lucky because she was in a good mood.
Don't get me wrong I hate her and I want to kick her *** so bad for what she has done to Diana but I had no time to lose I was almost late for the interview, I had to time to fight with a spoiled bitch.
When I entered the building there were so many people waiting for the interview. I even overheard that some of the applicants are actually very rich but applied to get close to the CEO of the company.
For me I didn't care who my boss was as long as I will get enough money to support me and Andrew until I can find the Diamond of light.
I was the 74th applicant and there where like a hundred of us so I had my doubts. I would see applicants come out crying or pissed off and only saw 3 walking out with a smile on their face. I heard that the three of them were from the world's best colleges and are very rich.
When I was called in, I was getting pretty nervous and sweated alot. The moment I walked in I saw 9 people in an oval shaped table and it appeared the one of the other end of the table was the CEO. First they asked me to introduce myself and tell them why they should hire me.
This is what I said, "I am Diana Chu, 23 years of age, I have a diaploma in Keyboard and computer techniques, Basic office procedures, Business math and finance skills and Office technology which I have finished in Oxford University.
I want to work here to offer my knowledge and understanding about the business industry because I see myself the most capable woman you have and will ever meet."
"We have applicants from even more prestigious schools and have much more experience, why should we hire you, it is even here in your resume that you have lost the succession for your family's company, how does your words prove your capabilities if you can't even hold on to your family's succession." the guy sitting near the CEO said.
" I did lose succession of my parent's company but it didn't change the fact that when it comes to business I understand it very well, it might not be very well known but I am one of the reasons why the Chu company is at it's glory, it was because of my connections, methods and decisions that made Chu company what it is today.
You might not believe me but the Chu company only become one of the world's biggest companies when I started to work there which is a fact so if you don't accept me that is a major blow not just for me but mostly for you.", I said woth my head held high.
This Diana is very capable, it is so sad that she took away her own life. She worked so hard and yet she was still treated so bady, humans are such horrid beings.
I overheard this conversation between the shareholders, "She is such a bitch, she thinks too highly of herself", "I agree she has sone guts saying that to us"(in Spanish), so I replied,"Sir, I don't appreciate being said negative things, please shut the **** up".
Their reaction when they realize I could speak Spanish was priceless their faces were so pale.
The CEO then asked me why I could speak Spanish, I can't tell him I have the ability Omnispeak so I said, "When I went to study abroad I would try to learn as many languages as I could during my freetime.".
Another major share holdet then asked me, "What about Arabic can you understand that?(Arabic)", so I answered,"Yes, I can very much understand you (Arabic), I can also speak fluent Russian (Russian), and also Mandarin if you ever ask (mandarin)."
How I missed this feeling of superiority....
