The endless, empty ocean was the cradle of all life forms. When lightning and storms intersected, the most primitive seeds of life were tossed into the ocean, and when these larvae finally evolved to a certain degree, they began to go ashore in search of a new home.
Of course, this was only the most acceptable explanation for the origin of life in this world where science explained everything. As for whether or not this was actually the case, no one really knew.
However, there were many similarities when discussing the creation legends of magical fantasy worlds.
Every legend had its own similarities, but out of all the legends, the "creation of humans from clay" was probably the most common. In New Zealand's legends, the great god Tiki used his own blood and red clay to create humans. After the apocalypse, Noah tossed a stone behind him, and his son appeared. God used the dust of the ground to create the male Adam, and then used Adam's rib to create the first woman, Eve. However, the most famous legend was in Chinese legends. Nuwa grabbed mud and mixed water to create humans.
In this world, it was unknown if Aichy had created life in such a manner. But since even the world was constructed with the four elements as the foundation, the various life forms here were nothing more than the condensation of the elements.
Right now, in my world, a mythical scene of creation was also occurring.
Ice mountains and ice plains began to melt. The thick layers of ice transformed into water, and the endless water transformed into creeks. The creeks gathered into rivers, and rivers finally flowed towards the ocean.
This world, which used the source of water as its foundation, was restored to its original appearance.
As an ancient God Equipment, Stonevilla transformed into the source of the ocean. The blue color that filled the sky was just like the endless flood from the legends.
There were no storms, no waves, not even sound. Everything was silent. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe it as deathly silence. No matter which direction one looked at it from, the silhouette of the vast ocean was just the surface of the ocean that was far too lonely.
When the white crystal fell into the ocean, the entire ocean began to boil. Countless bubbles spouted out of the water, and then yellowish-brown rock plates slowly rose from the water. The land that separated the ocean finally appeared.
Everything was born, evolved, and died in the disorderly chaos. When the land was once again covered in ice and snow, the illusory space had already moved towards reality.
The Earth Elemental Throne's crystal shards were just like the legendary Living Earth, which would grow with the wind. They transformed into the foundation of Calming Sea and the core of the world, continuously constructing new continents.
Time passed, and the cycle of time continued. The second Ice Age descended once again.
But this time, the endless ice plains no longer had layers of ice stacked on top of one another. There was real land beneath the distant icebergs and glaciers. When two of the four pillars of the world had been completed, the world had moved from a narrow space to reality.
In the past, spatial rifts could still be seen at the edges of this place, but after the earth elementals that served as the base and foundation were in place, the space here finally stabilized.
As for me, I was also frightened.
"… I'm just creating a small world. What does this scene that looks like the beginning of the world mean? Could it be that I've unknowingly done something amazing?"
I could sense that this world was connected to me. Wherever my will reached, the glaciers could melt, the rivers could flow backwards, and the continents could break apart. However, I instinctively refused to allow any of this to happen.
"Don't interfere with them. Let them evolve on their own." A mysterious will suddenly spoke up in my mind. I felt as if there was a pair of eyes watching me from the shadows.
I was rather confused and astonished … and then, I was kicked out of my own world! I was actually kicked out of my own world!
[System Notification: The Little Tyrant's server is currently under maintenance. Remember to check the system's announcement when it's under maintenance. Now, go wherever you need to go. Spend more time in the sun. Be careful of mushrooms growing on your head.]
Alright then, I knew that this fellow really was an immoral System. He was saying that I was an otaku who would die at the sight of sunlight. I was clearly a bright, sunny, and sporty young man. My neighbors all praised me for being a good man at home and a good employee outside of work, and for being a good neighbor.
"… You really dare to say such things. The number of people who've been tricked by you is probably enough to form two groups. Just now, you fought with Ömdiroken in such a manner, digging traps while scamming people. No matter how I look at it, you're the villain here."
The black cat on my shoulder had woken up from its long sleep. But why was it commenting on me the moment it woke up? Could it be that Heloise -sensei's only worth in life was commenting?
[Server is currently under maintenance. Estimated opening time: one and a half months later. System Notification: Don't take the opening time seriously. I'm just saying it casually. Which company's server has ever been opened on time? As a player who was already numb to being tricked by others, I had to learn to be optimistic and accept delayed announcements one after another. What? You don't want to accept it? Fine then, you can try going to an online gaming company to PK in real life.]
As usual, I decisively ignored the System's nonsense. What attracted my attention was the system's stats, which were almost identical to the previous one.
[Completion Rate:? %. Fate Points: 43201.]
The Completion Rate was actually a question mark. It seemed that even the System didn't know when it would finish. But judging from how my Fate Points weren't decreasing very quickly, I didn't need to be in a hurry to find quests to do.
"It seems that I should focus on letting the world evolve on its own. There's no need to forcefully interfere like last time. Hmm? Where did so many Fate Points come from? "
Only now did I have the time to look at the System Notification that I had long since forgotten about.
[Congratulations to Host for killing Ömdiroken by yourself. You have obtained SemiGod Equipment "Earth Roar Bracers", "Ömdiroken's Wall of Sighs (Myth-ranked shield)", and God-ranked material "Earth Elemental Throne Fragment". Since this kill wasn't part of the System's quests, according to the System's rules, no Fate Points will be awarded.]
[Congratulations to Host for killing a True God by yourself. You have activated the "Enemy of Gods" series of achievements. You have obtained the honorary title "God's Loathing". You have obtained 50,000 Fate Points. With this title, you will become a beginner level "Enemy of Gods". You will be able to deal 5% more damage to those with divine power. The next stage of this series of achievements is to kill three True Gods by yourself. You will be awarded the honorary title "God's Slayer". You will become a mid-level "Enemy of Gods" that can deal 15% more damage to those with divine power.]
[When you kill ten True Gods (including one Main God) by yourself, you will reach the peak of the "Enemy of Gods" achievement system. You will be awarded the honorary title "Kratos isn't a God's Fangs, he's a God's Father"! You will also receive the special effect of 50% more damage to Gods. However, after equipping this title, all Gods will be less friendly towards you. You won't be able to hide this title either. You won't be able to continue killing Gods even if you don't want to.]
Alright then, let's ignore all these random comments. It would seem that I did quite well this time. The System was indeed very helpful and helpful. Not only did I obtain two top-level equipment, I even made up for Ömdiroken's Fate Points in other ways. That Enemy of Gods title was one of the few titles that I could foresee being extremely useful … Speaking of usefulness, I suddenly recalled the "Jinx" and "King of Gentlemen" achievements that I couldn't even deactivate. Recently, there had been more and more gentlemen, and the gentlemen were becoming more and more shameless. Perhaps this was all because of the System's scams.
However, another troublesome issue had arrived in front of me.
[Warning: Stonevilla's Ocean Bottle's energy supply is unstable. Please complete the quest to hunt down the Sea Gods as soon as possible and collect the divine power of the sea beasts and Sea Gods. This is the power needed to perfect this God Equipment, as well as the path to creating your own world.]
It would seem that after the Elemental God's body and the Elemental Throne's shard were embedded into my Frigidwinter Earth, the originally fragile balance was broken yet again. Although this was a good thing for the world of Frigidwinter, hunting down the sea beasts and Sea Gods would likely be quite troublesome for me as well.
However, what attracted my attention were the two pieces of equipment that were dropped directly. The real world wasn't like the game. Every boss wouldn't bring a large bag of equipment that they couldn't use. When they were defeated, they would simply toss out a few items according to the loot list. For quite a long time, no matter which enemy I defeated, I had never obtained any equipment from them.
You want the enemy's equipment? You can just take it from the corpse. There's no such thing as a blacksmith in the real world … The System could only give me all sorts of random materials. All it did was help me save time in gathering them.
However, I only needed to look at the two pieces of equipment to understand what was going on.
[Wristguards of the Earth. SemiGod Equipment.]
[Effect 1. Power of the Earth: Absorbs the power of the earth element and increases the wearer's Strength stat by 10. However, the wearer must stand on the ground. This effect will disappear when the wearer jumps or flies.]
[Effect 2: Stone of Undying: This wristguard is indestructible. It can block attacks from God Equipment. It can automatically repair itself after being damaged too much.]
[Effect 3: Spatial Blink: Precise short-range teleportation (3 minute cooldown. Range is limited to a radius of 100 meters). System Notification: Using this ability will consume a large amount of stamina. Please use it carefully.]
[Curse of Divine Power: Petrify. Ömdiroken curses any enemy that forcefully steals his power. The wearer of this wristguard will receive 1 point of petrification damage per second. If the petrification exceeds 70% of the wearer's total HP, the wearer will be turned into a stone statue by the constant influx of earth element.]
[A row of yellow words is carved on the wristguard: This wristguard contains the divine soul of an undying being. Just by touching it, one can feel his strength and unwillingness in the past.]
This grayish-black wristguard didn't look very impressive. The scales on it were similar to Ömdiroken's outer skin. There were two obsidian stones at the top of the wristguard that looked like they were made of stone. However, when I touched it, I realized that it was actually a little warm. It also felt similar to skin, as though it was alive.
As a SemiGod Equipment, it didn't have many abilities. However, its effects were surprisingly practical. Ömdiroken's strongest abilities were all here. The massive increase in Strength was a perfect match for melee combat. The Stone of Undying's ability could allow me to turn the tables at a crucial moment. Furthermore, Ömdiroken had already displayed the power of Spatial Blink.
That Curse of Divine Power was indeed troublesome. It also limited his usage time and range. However, since I had the Titan Body, I could completely ignore it.
"It seems that, just like that God Equipment dagger from before, God-level existences can use their divine soul and divine power to create powerful equipment. Looking at these stats, it's as though they were tailor-made for me."
I gleefully put on the wristguard. I couldn't help but smile in delight when I felt my body's tremendous increase in Strength. Strength would forever be the foundation of any melee combat job. I had never even heard of equipment that greatly increased my physical Strength before.
"Who knows, I can finally compete with Amelia in strength."
As for the other Epic-ranked shield, it was a tower shield that could protect most of one's body. It looked like Emordilorcan's face, and the eyes on it seemed to be glaring at him. It was a horrifying sight.
I took a look at its stats. They were as practical as always. Super high defense, the most practical damage reduction, and an active attack ability. I would definitely be able to surprise my opponent.
After considering it for a moment, I decided to use it myself. After all, when I fought against Ömdiroken, every single one of his attacks had caused me to vomit blood and be injured. I felt that my defense was far too weak against an opponent of his level.
"It seems that I've truly reaped a great harvest this time. Could it be that the System has changed its mind and is planning on going down the path of a dragon? "
[System Notification: With great power comes great responsibility. The stronger you are, the fiercer your opponent will be. The System will never scam you. You're the one who dug your own pit and jumped into it. Can you blame me for always looking for trouble?]
Alright then, my expression instantly darkened. Wasn't it obvious that the System intended to continue scamming me? Couldn't you just let me be happy for a few days?
"Indeed, a great harvest."
The black cat on my shoulder was smiling even more happily than I was. The next instant, I understood what she meant.
I reached out with my paw, and with a distortion, the black cat disappeared without a trace. The next instant, a peerlessly beautiful golden-haired High Elf appeared in front of me.
Her silky blonde hair flowed in the wind, and her smiling face was as pure as snow. Her snow-white skin had a faint golden tint to it, and her innocent eyes were so pure that it made one's heart ache. This was a woman as pure as snow.
She wore an ancient-style white dress with a silk handkerchief that dragged on the ground. Her extravagant salute was holy and beautiful, showing off Heloise's otherworldly aura. Right now, the person in front of me wasn't that banshee who had no morals or limits to speak of. Instead, she was the last princess of the ancient High Elf Empire.
"Golden Elves are the most beautiful? Is this the purest form of temptation? "
As expected of the most beautiful of all elves. At that instant, even I was tempted. Even the most seductive succubus I had ever seen didn't have such a pure form of temptation that could make people fall for her.
Just like how I was forcefully sent back to the time when I died in battle, the moment she regained her life, the magic of time caused her to return to the past. In that generation, the young female Elves had the magical ability to use their charm to make everything fall for them.
When I remembered that the one in front of me was the thousand-year-old Fairy Heloise, I calmed down.
She smiled sweetly at me, her smile filled with sincerity.
"Thank you, I'll remember this favor."
Then, I was stunned and enraged. I pointed at the Elven beauty and roared in anger!
"Imposter! Who the hell are you! That old witch Heloise would never thank anyone! It was even more impossible for her to smile so sweetly. Ahhhhh, goosebumps rose all over my body. What kind of monster are you? Hurry up and reveal your true form! "
Heloise's eyebrows trembled in anger, but she still did her best to suppress her anger. She took two deep breaths and forced out a smile.
"Hehe, you really know how to joke. Who else could I be if not Heloise? Have you forgotten that I'm the last Gold Elf? This form is what I looked like before I died."
However, the ancient Gold Elves were generally more than two meters tall, as if they had walked out of a painting with the golden ratio. They were fit and energetic, with beautiful curves that didn't lose their elegance. They actually had an unscientific chest size that was completely different from other Gold Elves, far surpassing those so-called supermodels. The most ridiculous part was that Heloise was probably the tallest among the Gold Elves, but she actually had to lower her head when she saw me, who was around 1.8 meters tall!
"Objection! If you didn't mention it, I would have forgotten. Weren't you still underage when you died? Who are you trying to fool! Magical Pet Order: Remove your disguise! "
I instantly understood. She was definitely putting on a brave front. She probably used her transformation ability to make herself look like this.
The contract between magical pets didn't disappear with Heloise's revival. On the contrary, due to Heloise's fusion with Shadow, the single contract became two types of contracts, which became even stronger. If I forcefully gave the order, it would definitely be carried out.
"Roland, you bastard! This is my expected adult appearance, don't … "
The magical pet's order had already been given, and so a sudden flash of light represented that the hidden truth had been revealed. The next moment, the light faded, and the great beauty was gone. A golden-haired young Gold Elf appeared in front of me. Her long hair was all tangled up on the floor, and her overly loose dress directly slid down her shoulders. Her small and exquisite face was filled with anger, and her face was as red as an apple. Even her iconic Gold Elf ears were completely red. How interesting. Yep, it was very interesting to me.
"Good, the top is flat, the middle is flat, and the bottom is also flat. As expected, this is magic. This is the Heloise I know."
I waved my hands in satisfaction as I nodded and walked over. Amidst Heloise's anger and embarrassment, I first lifted her up high, then did a windmill spin, and spun around and around.
When Heloise collapsed on the ground in dizziness, I lowered my head and looked down at her from above. Finally, I rubbed her head.
"Yep, an eleven-headed Heloise is too unscientific. A three-headed Heloise is much more pleasing to the eye. Little friend Heloise, do you want to go look at goldfish with Uncle? "
* Crack! *
"… Don't bite me! Hey, hey, let go! It hurts, it hurts! Let go! Are you a dog?! "
"You bastard lolicon! You bastard who deserves to be single for the rest of your life! "A low voice escaped from her small mouth. She had actually transformed into a tiger's fang!
Alright then, let's put everything else aside for now. I should first think of a way to take off that "glove" on my hand.
