Your four casual high schoolers were just casually walking down the streets.

They were walking back home just to play some video games, and were bickering as usual like all teenagers do.
All of a sudden, a giant azure hand appeared and started to descend from the sky.

They took notice of it and decided to run from it as fast as possible, but to no avail! Ultimately, this palm slammed onto them.

"Loki! Stop messing around with my world! I have spent 2000 years assimilating Earth to be suitable for mana, and getting humans to worship me. I am not going to let those two thousand years go to waste from your mischief!"
"Woah woah, Gaia, you should relax for a moment. Of course, I'm not going to ruin the fruits of your effort. I just want these 4 earthlings."

"NO! I've seen your deeds in one of the realms; you gave a certain group of people unimaginable talent and power, made them drunk on power and caused a great multi-realm war. I cannot allow that to happen again."

"Alright alright, I will not bless them powers. I'll just freeze them for 50,000 years and see how they react from then on. I will not directly interact with them nor influence their decisions. How about that?"

"No."

"....I'll give you a drop of Origin Divine Essence."

With that, the four teenagers had their fate sealed due to the whim of two gods trading them for an Origin Divine Essence, an item that far outweighs their lives.

When they awoke, they found themselves in a totally different world, with different landscapes and animals, and most importantly, with *magic*.

They will find their lives intertwined with the God named Loki, and subsequently become strong enough to not succumb to him, and choose their own fate!
