Artificial God (2)

When he finished finding Eunah, he felt like the words ~Fin~ would appear, but when he pondered it, the true purpose of entering this dimension hadnt even started.

Then, time to work right away.

Huh?

Shin Eunahs eyes went wide as she watched Kang Shin-hyuk clear his mind to challenge the work of the century.

Wait a minute, wait a second.

Why? I have something important to do from now on.

Its not that!

Shin Eunah stomped her feet in frustration.

Weve confirmed each others hearts now!

Thats an old-fashioned expression.

Im ashamed!

It wasnt at a volume an ashamed person would produce, but he decided to keep quiet lest lightning struck him. Shin Eunah suddenly noticed Vita beside him.

Anyway, time outside doesnt flow much anyway, but its good to have time alone for the two of us now, I think

Yeah?

In summary, Eunah was saying, cant you turn it off for a while? While Vita seemed embarrassed, Shin Eunahs gaze shifted to Kang Shin-hyuk.

What do you think?

Honey

Ah.

Kang Shin-hyuk nodded. Indeed, a change in the relationship started with a change in title. Still, there were many different expressions to look for, and he needed to consider Claire. As expected, there was still a long way to go.

Its good to hear.

Really?

Then.

Now was the time to heal Shin Eunahs heart, who was before him. It felt complicated in many ways, but he decided to put aside his worries about Claire for a while and focus only on the lovely woman in front of him.

Hey, then you know

Her mood seemed to improve, but it was then that Vita opened her mouth.

[You seemed to have found her, thank you.]

Huh?

Huh?

The moment they heard the familiar voice, both of them turned quickly. As Vita was created by Claire, she certainly resembled her, but Vitas voice had her own uniqueness. But the voice they just heard was definitely Claires.

[Oh, Im dizzy, even though were slowing the ratio as much as possible. What the hell is this world?]

Claire?

Claire?

Vitas eyes flashed periodically, and then her mouth opened again, her own voice coming out.

Since we found her, I immediately brought mom.

No, its really like that?

What happened?

Kang Shin-hyuk felt astonished, and Shin Eunah blinked in confusion. Soon, Claire spoke up again.

[Ah, its okay nowyes, Ive tried several things with Vita and the nanobots. This is one of those results. Synchronization that shares all senses can be a bit dangerous, so I tried to refrain from it, but I have left you two alone.]

Claire, if its dangerous, stop. Ill be back as soon as possible.

[Its okay, Im not alone, and I dont move while thinking just about myself. The administrator is assisting me.]

Claire Claire!

Kang Shin-hyuk stopped to think while Eunah ran straight to Vita and hugged her. Was that hug for Claire? Seeing Vitas laughing face, it seemed like it wasnt a lie.

Claire, I missed you!

[Yes, Eunah. Im sorry I cant come directly; its difficult to move right now.]

Its okay, but

Shin Eunahs hands embracing Vita gained strength.

What are you talking about not being alone?

[Its what you imagined.]

Hey.

Ah, it hurts. Eunah?!

Kang Shin-hyuk felt that the world was freezing. He had grown so much that he could call himself a transcendent, but for some reason, he didnt feel like he could beat Eunah. This entire world was under her control. He wouldnt be able to overcome that power unless he used his trait to seize dominance of the world.

Her mental state still seems dangerous.

He seriously thought about it, but fortunately, she quickly calmed down.

Time has passed while I wasnt there

[About a year?]

Wow?! You didnt wait long!

[What could we do when we love each other, Eunah. Do you understand my heart too?]

Claire was choosing some provocative words. The possibility that Vita was imitating Claire just dropped to zero. Kang Shin-hyuk was nervously prepared to demonstrate his trait right away, but the next moment, Vitas words stopped his ability to think.

[So dont worry about me. Make a kid and come back.]

Is it really okay?

[Now, we dont care about that. I thought that I was a little sorry for cutting-in too This will be enough.]

Claire!

Kang Shin-hyuk managed to regain his senses as their friendship deepened.

Wait a second.

-Myuu, my!

Onyx cried up at Kang Shin-hyuk, who stood up because he sensed a very dangerous deal was being made. He intuited that if his master stepped out and said pointless things, it would be even more dangerous.

[Yeah, instead, Ill intervene a little when I cant stand it either.]

Huh?

Huh?

Claire continued without explaining what she meant to either of them.

[Then, Ill go first. Honey, call me when you start working.]

Yes, your ability is indispensable for this job But wait, interrupting what?

Oh, shes gone.

Vitas expression quickly returned to her usual self. Kang Shin-hyuk, feeling shy and blushing, wanted to ask what that conversation was about, but he stopped as he sensed the danger in it.

Then I got permission too!

Wait a minute, okay! Lets build a house first.

Kang Shin-hyuk, who held Shin Eunah back and tried to calm her, decided to adjust the order of his work. Yes, creating a Hero Universe wouldnt end in a short period of time. Now he had to challenge it with the mind of a marathoner, not a sprinter. The matter was too serious about allowing for impatience considering external circumstancesmost of which were the fault of Janus and Kang Shin-hyuk.

***

By creating the ultimate sword, Lucifer, Kang Shin-hyuk had reached the realm of perfect all-craft. It was the pinnacle of all production line abilities, and it was the kind of power that could easily cut down trees and build houses. It took only about 30 seconds to build a house large enough for three people to stay, plus Onyx. Shin Eunahs awakening had created several high-level resources in the wasteland world, and Kang Shin-hyuk gathered them to build a wonderful house. After that, he spent a lot of time with Shin Eunah before starting his full-scale work.

That Can I make a structure that looks like it was in Cy Xenon?

You dont have to stick to form. Eunah needs to provide me with the energy of this world.

Battery

It wasnt wrong. At first, he thought about how to control the energy of the world by twisting its laws, but it was arrogant to do such a terrible thing while constructing the Hero Universe. It was best for Shin Eunah to take full control of the energy while he focused on creating the system with Claire.

[I thought there would be some mythical creation process.]

At least its more mythical than creating Jormungand was.

As Claire participated in the work through Vitas body and complained, Kang Shin-hyuk responded calmly. When creating Chiral, he had just worked with the improvisational idea of creating a huge mirror to illuminate the minds of the ugly humans. On the other hand, what about now? Except for Claire, who could reach him through Vita, even the administrator of the Hero Universe couldnt invade that space. Shin Eunah was the one recognized as the master of that dimension, and he was a blacksmith who could overturn all reason. There was also Vita, born as a monster but reborn as an android, who was collaborating while sharing her consciousness.

Of course, there was also Onyx, who was in charge of being cute, so they had truly a perfect composition.

[Surprisingly, it might not have been much to see when looking at how it was created.]

Maybe.

Kang Shin-hyuk answered with a smile, and waves of terrible energy emanated from him to fill the world, converging at a point in front of him.

But this is neither a structure nor a mirror.

Seven orbs spontaneously appeared from his inventory, resonating with the energy he created as they rotated around it. The resonance became more and more intense, and Shin Eunah began to absorb the mana he extracted. The ball of energy was growing larger and larger, to a size similar to the other orbs. Shin Eunah felt thrilled as she sensed the infinite possibilities within it.

You can create an even life.

This system is what well make from now on. Theres no substance.

[Hey, I heard about programming, but what is this?]

It will resonate with the nanobots. Have you already done a lot of programming through them?

Claire was able to get a rough idea of how the future work would proceed as she listened and soon let out a deep sigh.

[AhVita, Ill have to be prepared.]

Im ready, mom.

[Even if you ask the administrator Oh, it doesnt work.]

Of course not.

Actually, even the administrator didnt know. Kang Shin-hyuk didnt dare say that, but he stretched out his hand with a side look at Shin Eunah. She was already focusing on the energy in the resonating sphere before her.

Then lets start in earnest.

The sphere resonated with the world that would be the core of the Hero Universe system. Kang Shin-hyuks spiritual power bloomed around it, creating a hammer. It embodied the power to twist all causality and form new laws.

It was the moment when he took the first step towards his great destiny
