Power of Creation

Preparing respawn. Specter mode being created. Please enjoy porn while you wait…

“Oh, fuck baby, harder, harder!

“Ooooo, ooooo…. It’s inside, fuck, fuck, fuck fuck, fuck!”

“Yeah, yeah, yeah! Ahhhhh….”

Porn on Pause. Specter mode has been created. You will respawn in two minutes.

My eyes open as my lifeless specter sits over my headless body. Sapporo is flying back up to the space portal. Grimhilde seems to have lost it, throwing curses and spells at Sapporo, but with the flick of a hand, he knocks Grimhilde down. It’s Medusa who catches her as she instantly falls unconscious. Sapporo clearly doesn’t see her as a threat.

Well, with how easily he defeated me, I'm not much of a threat either. Sapporo doesn’t seem interested in fighting and killing anyone or claiming any kind of revenge. Unlike the slug guy, he isn’t the type to be sadistic. At least until this God is finished being summoned, my harem is, for the most part, safe. Once the dark god comes, my harem would probably be enslaved, murdered, or stolen. I now realized all the spells I built my entire life here on were but kindling compared to the likes of a God. After what the priest said and how I had conducted myself, I started to kind of see myself as a bit of a god too. I was something immortal. Something invincible. Now I knew that that was all my imagination.

I was weak, and I died for it. Sapporo killed me quickly and swiftly. Even though I had spells that would allow me to respawn, I was maxed out. Sapporo would just kill me again. And again. And again. Had the fight been a close one, I’d just keep repopping until the time I won. However, with my body so easily destroyed, it seems pointless now.

There was just one small thing nagging at the back of my mind. Sapporo had easily dominated me and ultimately cut off my head after I attacked him. However, when Grimhilde attacked he just tossed Grimhilde aside and ignored her because she was no threat to him. So, why did he kill me? I am no threat either. He could have tossed me aside. However, he didn’t, which could only mean one thing.

“I was a threat.”

He felt a little threatened by me, that’s the only reason he would have killed me so quickly. He was worried I’d figure something out. Figure what out? Come on! Think! The timer is clicking down, I don’t have a lot of time. I raise myself up to Sapporo’s level. I can see into the hole. Human beings, millions of them. They are being pushed forward, their throats cut and their bodies tossed into piles that are being burned. It is a horrific sight, but it is clear that they’d reach their “life quota” in short order at this rate.

Also, once you repop, Sapporo will know I can do it and might have a way to prevent it next time, making my next life possibly my last chance. It is so frustrating. What did he know that I didn’t? Why did he kill me? He said it himself, I'm only human. I freeze.

“Only human.”

That’s right. I'm the most powerful human being. My status is maxed… for a human. I am only human.

Stupid. So fucking stupid! That’s why I'm so weak! I'm only a human. The human body can only be so powerful, can only hold so much mana, can only do so much. As long as I remain human, I can only reach a certain peak. Meanwhile, he is a demon. Maxed demons are just inherently stronger than maxed humans. Pun’s stupid world just isn’t balanced in that way. It is the same sort of thing when I fought the dragon king. He didn’t have maxed status, but his body was so much better than mine that even a normal dragon could inflict injury if I wasn’t careful. Simply put, as long as I'm human I’ll never be able to beat those with inherently better bodies.

Right now, I'm not human though. I'm a specter without a body. My power… it creates magic, but it is fundamentally called the power of creation. At its core, it’s the ability to create something. I slap my hands together, pooling up all of my magic. There is only a minute left on the timer. That’s plenty of time. I speed up my mind and slow down space until the clock seems practically frozen.

“Alright magic… let’s create a new body. Body creation magic!” I declare, pumping out magic in massive swaths.

A question suddenly pops in my mind.

Select Species.

I look through the list and laugh. Scrolling through, I see Dragons, Demon Lords, High Humans, and even Kryptonians. Too Weak! Immediately, I go to select a custom-made species.

It’s time I create something new.
