The Goddess pouted, expressing her disappointnt in Michael.
Sorry, I didn't recognize you. I was just a floating soul back then, Michael apologized.
[That's fine, I forgive you. After all, you've shown incredibly entertaining things since you've reincarnated into this world.]
You aren't mad? I'm practically cheating the advancent of this world's technology.
The Goddess laughed. [It's fine,] she said. [My people have beco so used to magic that they never have any advancent in technology at all. It is quite frustrating watching the sa thing for thousands upon thousands of years.]
Michael had a feeling that this was the entire reason why he was reincarnated in the first place.
[Anyway, I like what you're doing, so keep at it. I hope you achieve whatever it is you want to achieve, Mr. Stoic.]
The Goddess flashed a vision of the world on the clouds. It showed the happy smiles of won washing their hands with Reborn soap, it showed the rowdy crowd of chess players enjoying their ga in front of the fireplace, and it showed how much he affected the lives of the people in his life.
His mother and father were embracing each other as they watched Michael's body standing still under the Goddess' statue.
Back in the Vanderbilt estate, Beretta no longer arched her back as it ached from fetching pales of water from the well.
There were so many more people whose lives had completely changed for the better either directly or indirectly by Michael's actions.
I just want everyone to be as comfortable as , Michael said to the Goddess.
[And that's what makes you so special. That's why I gave you that power in the first place.]
Michael rubbed his head. He didn't really think what he did was anything special. After all, everything was only possible because of his personal AI assistant.
However, the Goddess knew that if it was any other soul that ca equipped with ChatJK2, then they wouldn't have used it the way Michael used it to make other people's lives better.
Anyway, what happens now? Do you just send back to the real world?
The giant head shook her head. [No, didn't they tell you that it's ti for your Talent Awakening?]
I thought I already had my talent. I already have a Supre Skill.
The Goddess chuckled. [That doesn't excuse you from getting a Talent. I'll force it on you whether you like it or not.]
Michael shrugged. As usual, if he couldn't do anything about it, then it was useless to argue.
[To help you achieve your dream of making everyone comfortable, you'll have to continue to spread inventions throughout the world.
However, it will not be easy. You'll have lots of competition. Not to ntion, so people are too entrenched in their culture and their belief that you will find it hard to influence them to accept your inventions. To make it easier, I will give you a talent that will allow you and your allies to achieve the top of their fields.
I hereby bless you with the talent: Harbinger of the Future.]
Michael felt a warm sensation flow from his head down to his toes. He was covered in so kind of holy aura for a few seconds before it dissipated into his skin.
[And with that Talent cos a Supre Skill called: Gift Bestowal.]
Just then, Michael saw the familiar system screen show up in his vision.

He didn't think that God would give him another Supre Skill. He heard that only ten people in the entire world had a Supre Skill. And now, he had two.
Thanks…though I don't know what Supre Skill does. And what about my Talent? What does that an?
The Goddess flashed a mysterious smile. Michael didn't know if she was playing with him, or simply wanted to laugh at him.
[Your talent is what it is. You bring forth the future. As for your Supre Skill, you can find the full extent of your powers by yourself.
The only thing you need to know is that you can awaken the hidden Talent in a being and endow them with powers that would have been otherwise impossible to obtain. I don't want to spoil the surprise for you, so look forward to it!]
Another overpowered ability…Michael would happily accept such a gift. He was glad that it was a power that helped him make other people achieve their full potential.
[Fufufu…I can't wait to see what you'll do with those powers.]
Michael suddenly felt his body get lighter and lighter. His hands started to beco translucent as if he was fading away from existence.
[I guess that's all the ti we have for today.]
Michael looked at the Goddess, gratitude filling his eyes. Thanks, he said honestly. It was only because of her that he was able to live such a good life.
[No probs!] God replied. [Oh and by the way, I suggest that you get your family out of Kingsbridge as soon as possible. There's going to be a plague soon.]
Michael resisted the fading feeling in his body once he heard that.
What do you an? he asked in a rushed tone.
[You've noticed the pollution on River Das, right? It's only going to get worse from here, and it will eventually lead to a lot of deaths in the City. I'm just warning you that you should get out of the City before you get infected.]
Michael frowned. His father worked in Kingsbridge. Seberus and the mages he befriended while playing chess lived there. His Reborn company was just starting to mark its spot in the City…
He couldn't let such a tragedy fall on Kingsbridge and the innocent people there—not if he could help it.
[Fufufu…I guess you'll have to work on that sewer system you've been thinking about. Good luck!]
The Goddess bid him a kiss goodbye before sending his soul back to the world.
Michael woke up with resolve and determination lighting a fire in his eyes.
