Chapter 1 – Ch 1 : Healthy Start

Sunny’s eyes fluttered open, greeted by the disorienting sight of himself floating in the vast expanse of space.

Before him, a vibrant blue orb, completely submerged in water, shimmered. “Where am I? Woah, how can I talk in space?” he mused, a wave of surprise washing over him as he realized he could both breathe and speak in the vacuum.

Just as his thoughts began to wander, a sudden voice jolted him back to reality.

[Global notification!]

[Welcome Players to the Multiverse of Gods.]

[You have your base planet where you are the God, where you can control everything.]

[Please check your Status to see your God-Talent.]

Sunny’s face froze for a second before a chuckle escaped his lips. “A God-Talent, huh? Let’s see. Status!”

A translucent, blue system panel materialized before him, a projection of digital information.

[God Name: unnamed]

[Planet Name: unnamed]

[LifeForms: 0]

[Talent: Skill-Resonance (SSS-Grade)]

[Faith: 10]

[Please enter Your God Name…]

“Hey system! I want to check my talent first,” Sunny interjected, his gaze fixed on the coveted SSS-grade rating.

As a self-proclaimed shut-in novel reader, he knew SSS-grade signified the absolute pinnacle of power.

Another panel flickered into view, offering a detailed breakdown of his unique ability.

[Talent Name: Skill-Resonance]

[Grade: SSS]

[Description: Can copy any talent or skill of any life-form in your territory at the end of every 100 planetary years.]

Sunny gasped, his eyes widening as he absorbed the description.

He’d expected an extraordinary SSS-grade talent, but witnessing its potential firsthand was an entirely different experience. “Once every 100 years is pretty long,” he murmured, his gaze drifting towards his water-filled planet.

As a newly ascended god, he possessed an inherent awareness of every inch of his world, and there were currently no life forms to be found.

“There are no life forms on this planet. Doesn’t that mean my talent is useless at the start and only becomes powerful as life forms emerge?” he pondered aloud. “But forming life takes millions of years, and even more for them to evolve.

This really is a useless talent in the beginning.” Despite the initial setback, Sunny didn’t lose heart.

He understood the immense power his talent held if he played his cards right as a god.

“So, what name should I choose for my God name?” Sunny pondered for a moment.

“Cosmos,” he declared, a name chosen to evoke the universe, order, and immense scale.

[God name (Cosmos) selected]

[Please name your planet…]

“Veridia,” Sunny announced, envisioning a world teeming with lush greenery.

The name, derived from “verdant,” echoed vibrant life, continuous growth, and rich biodiversity.

[Planet name (Veridia) selected]

[Please wait 9 min 34 sec for the opening of your world]

“Let’s see what else there is to explore,” Sunny thought, turning his attention back to the system panel.

He noticed two additional options: “God Chat” and “Transaction Space.”

Clicking on “God Chat” revealed a bustling panel, thousands of messages scrolling by every second.

“Alice, are you also transmigrated here? If you see this message, PM me!”

“Tom, if you see this message, PM me!”

Many individuals were desperately searching for loved ones, and some were even finding them amidst the chaos.

Sunny, an orphan since childhood on the “Blue Planet,” had no one to seek out, so he closed the chat panel.

“It’ll take them a while to come back to their senses.

Let’s check the Transaction Space then.” He clicked the “Transaction Space” button, only to be met with another message.

[Transaction Space will be available after opening of the world]

[Time Left: 5 min 3 sec]

Finding nothing else to explore for now, Sunny’s gaze drifted back to the bustling chat panel.

“Hah! I’ve become a God now, but my planet is barren, like Mars, with nothing but red soil and tiny ice patches here and there.”

“Upstairs, that’s still a good start! My planet is filled with nothing but sand. How can it evolve life forms? Any bigshots with knowledge of bi-life, please help me!”

“I don’t think anyone will tell you how to form life. What I’m thinking is, life forms take millions of years to form, even in good life-supporting conditions. What will we do until then? Chat idly?”

“Upstairs, according to my knowledge from different novels, it’s possible that the time flow on the planet will be many times faster than our time.”

“We’ll know about all that later. But did you guys know I got an S-grade talent?” A message from a player named Kairos momentarily halted the flood of chat messages, causing a flurry of inquiries about his talent description.

“Hello, bigshot! Can you share what talent you got? I have an F-grade talent which increases the percentage of developing blacksmiths in my life forms.”

“Hehe, check this screenshot,” Kairos typed, attaching an image.

Sunny opened the screenshot, revealing the talent description:

[Talent Name: Time Accelerate x10]

[Grade: S]

[Description: In your territory, the time flow is 10 times more than others.]

“Holy moly! Are we even playing the same game? What is this luck? Bigshot, do you need a maid?”

“Upstairs, are you a girl? Can I PM you?”

Sunny frowned as he looked at Kairos’s talent. “System, are you sure my talent is SSS-grade? Can I get this S-grade talent instead of mine?” He sighed.

He knew his talent was powerful, but a 10x time flow seemed far more balanced and could accelerate his world’s progress tenfold.

“Sigh! Looking at my water world, I guess I still have a healthy start compared to others,” Sunny mused, gazing out at his nascent planet.
