Chapter 45: [Willpower] and [Wisdom]

What was the most important thing to consider when picking out what one wanted to improve? Well… there were many things to think about, the least of all being which one would prove to be worth the most with what could be improved. Take, as an example [Willpower] and [Wisdom]. Both showed themse...

Chapter 44: Mastery of Light

How and why the undead took another step up the power scale was something the Core briefly wondered about before it had to constantly start repairing the walls stopping the creatures from coming inside and killing everything around them. There was no way it should have happened naturally, right? ...

Chapter 43: Optimizing [Death]

Testing out the efficiency of a function meant to completely obliterate a creature was quite the hard thing to do when the Core itself had no real desire to put one of its own creatures inside. So… what was one to do when the stone needed to be seen if it could kill yet also not kill a creature...

Chapter 42: The Answer to Everything

The answer to so many problems was very rarely not obvious afterwards. When a creature got the time to look back at their past actions, including the past not previously understood, things seemed to always melt together into one obvious mix of an answer. There were so many parts before, so many w...

Chapter 40: Replacement of Workers

How did one grow Moss in half the time while also having twice the growth? Well… the answer was to have four times the sources of energy. Two ants currently standing on the [Moss] could only do so much, but what would the result be if eight did it instead? It was quite the potential just lying ...

Chapter 39: Ignorance is [Bliss]

Digging wasn't something the Core ever thought it would have so much trouble doing. The first few minutes of doing it had been quite easy after all, so there might have been some part of the Entity that had grown over-confident again, taking larger swaths of material from the middle of the room. ...

Chapter 37

A voice. It was not the voice of the Core ordering anything from those under it. Neither was it the voice of the [System], though that hadn't been heard since the very start. No, this was the voice of something foreign, something that had never been experienced before. The sound of the vocals ech...

OUT OF ORDER: Chapter 16

[AN: Forgot to put this in with the last batch so this is out of order. Sorry for that!]

The legs of the creatures stopped coming into its sight after a mere couple of seconds, there being enough to fully count up five [Giant-Ants]. None of those that had come in w...

Chapter 36

The world was bright, Mana of all kinds everywhere, plants showing up at every piece of the earth. There was nothing which laid barren, every piece of stone and wood and dirt covered with life. There was more than the Core had ever seen before. It was… beauty. There was nothing greater, nothing...

Chapter 35

How had the cores before the Entity anchored things in place? That was the question that the Core had for the world, even if none could answer it. So much thought had been spent coming up with the ideas of anchors, so many loops and hoops being jumped through to make sure it would work in theory....

Chapter 34

Levelling up… that had been something that the Entity had not done much of. It was not due to a lack of desire for it or anything. The Core wanted to level up more than anything since the benefits were so good. There was hardly a moment where the thought of more [Willpower] didn't cause some mi...

Chapter 33

How did Mana-Veins work exactly? That was the question the Core had pondered for a long time. The things weren't exactly made of physical matter, the outer shell barely a layer of coloured Mana as it was. The entire thing was just enough to push other Mass out of the way so that it could move thr...

Chapter 32

The fight between the [Infested] and the level one ant was quite simpler than the other one. Within the first thirty seconds, everything had been decided. Both came at each other, just like before. However, the impact was quite different, the superior mass holding out and making it possible for t...

Chapter 31

The two fought with a ferocity not seen much of before. The Core had witnessed the brutality of a varied degree earlier on in its life, having been a part of what was truly called straight-out sacrificial warfare. If both parties had quantity over quality, throwing the minions with no regard for ...

Chapter 30

Mana could affect creatures through nothing but exposure. The intensity and time-controlled the amount of effect it had, and the concentration did seem like it had some larger part to play as well. The Core honestly wasn't too sure how it worked yet, only knowing the main factors. There had been ...

Chapter 29

A [Skill] has been improved!

You have understood [Mana-Sense] more deeply

There were no lies to be had when it came to how [Mana-Sense] worked. It was a truly brilliant tool Utilitywise, not able to change much on its own but allow almost all other ...

Chapter 28

The time for the second enlightenment had come. First, the Core had figured out the secrets of Arcane and Colour, able to tell the difference between a moment and the next. Truly a fulfilling achievement, and certainly one which would prove useful shortly. Yet there was still another påoint that...

Chapter 27

[Mana-Sense] had been upgraded once before. In that time, it had achieved a more in-depth range of colours it could see, averages splitting up into more colourful divergences. The things seeming so simply turned into more and more complex parts, the Core’s mind able to understand that there was...

Chapter 26

With the [Blood-Moss] being so little, the Core wasn't able to simulate an actual scenario where the Ant walked across it. Instead, it stayed with one foot on the plant, never moving around. There were concerns that the realism of the test would be strained, the fact matter of constant contact be...

Chapter 25

Moving back away from the talks of the System and how it worked, the Core thought back to the original goals it had created before the fighting. It thought of the tasks set out to the creatures. The main goal set forth was the protection of the [Moss] while also guarding the area around it. That ...

Congratulations!

You have levelled up and reached level [4] You have been granted [1] attribute point.


Congratulations!

You have levelled up and reached level [5]!


The Core saw the two messages...

Chapter 23

With each burst of Mana sent out in a desperate bid to keep every single one of its minions alive, it became more and more obvious. The container that was kept in the Mana was beginning to run rather dry, to the point where it was getting dangerously close to zero. It would only take one or two m...

Chapter 22

The skill was taken with open arms, the Core not hating the name in any way. The hardship went through to get it, the work put into it… there was so much to unpack. So many creatures had been forced through a painful and short life, yet the trade was the ability to help so many others with one ...

Chapter 21

Stamina might have been a vital part of the body’s anatomy. No, wait, check that off. It was a very important part of anything anatomy. Even if the Core didn't have access to it through the system, it knew that there was some part of its crystalline shape that had some manner of influe...
