‘Processing updates…’

‘Reading Host stats…’

‘Analyzing pact monsters and beloved beauties… hidden’

‘Improving graphical interface and interior design’

‘Expanding storage: Universal Space-Time module now able to store house, horses, and materials. System updates include: cheaper world-class items and scrolls for outsiders, infinite-use ancient portal scrolls (level restriction applies), purchasable dimensions with full mana saturation, and cultivatable “Holy Herbals”.’

‘Host accumulated 10 trillion gold coins over the past 12 years; exchangeable for Deity Items and Dimensions. Host can summon powerful demi-humans and monsters as allies within purchasable dimensions.’

‘Storage limit still applies despite expansion.’

‘Host acquired titles: “Chosen by System – Possessor of Unimaginable Wealth”, “Monarch of the System”.’

‘Applying 10D View…’

‘Process 50%…’

‘Host rewards pending…’

‘Process 89%…’

‘Process 99%…’

‘System functionalities upgraded to “Godly System” — power increased tenfold.’

‘Upgrade complete.’

Moments later…

“Ugh!” I groaned, massaging my temple. Headache? No… maybe just system overload. Time to check my spoils from those Rebirth Realm high-peak demons. Hehe, they won’t be missed.

First, status check.

“Status.”

A black-and-gold door materialized before me. It radiated an aura like a divine gate, majestic and overwhelming. Numbers and stats scrolled upward.

‘Titles?’ I chuckled. “System… you really love me, huh? Hahaha. Monarch now, nice! Sung-Jin Woo would be proud—me and him, both total beasts.”

‘Dimensions?’

I grinned. “A whole dimension now? Like Fairy World? I can move freely, create anything, cultivate anywhere… this is insane. So OP.”

I scanned options. “Entire villages? Infinite travel without teleporting? Mana-neutral environment? Holy herbs cultivatable? Perfect. Let’s spend 1 trillion coins for 1 Empty Dimension.”

‘Host please confirm stats and accept trial. Press -CONFIRM- to proceed.’

“Wait, test? System, I thought this was a reward!”

‘…’

“Fine… CONFIRM.”

Instantly, the world shifted. My body froze, suspended midair, then fell into a pitch-black tunnel. Silence. Darkness. Endless nothing.

‘Host first trial: “Will of Adversity” — overcome consciousness in total darkness.’

“Hmph, system wants to test my mind and soul. Fine.”

I seated myself, legs crossed, forming an upward triangle with my arms. Fingers intertwined, thumbs pointing skyward. Ki and mana surged, sweat beaded. My mind teetered on the edge of collapse.

“Endioa Darktia Opposya.”

(Opposite of Endless Darkness)

A rush of warmth spread. I felt mental clarity, power swelling within. This was no ordinary meditation — my Mental State of Deities awakened. A new “mental evolution” unlocked through sheer concentration.

After what felt like hours, the darkness parted. Countless swords materialized. Shadows of cultivators from every stage fought around me, from Mortal to Rebirth King, each striking with overwhelming force.

System prompt:

‘Host, select your answer.’

1. Rule the world.

2. Serve under another.

3. What do you truly desire?

“What…? A job interview?” I muttered.

‘…’

“No, no, no. I just want a normal, happy life. Family, harem, peace — that’s it.”

‘…’

System scanned. ‘Error. Host response not in selectable options.’

‘tut… tut… scanning… tut…’

‘Error type: Host can answer system questions beyond system knowledge.’

‘Special gift unlocked.’

“Gifts? Really?”

‘You passed all 5 trials.’
‘Privilege: purchase “Empty Dimension” with infinite space. Full customization allowed.’
‘Gift delivered.’

Immediately, stats recalculated:

INT: 9,000 | STR: 9,000 | MAG: 10,000 | AGI: 9,500 | VIT: 9,200 | MP: 10,500

“Wow… system, you really outdid yourself. Godly System? Tenfold upgrade? Infinite dimension? Hehe… OP as always.”

I stretched, feeling the surge of potential coursing through my body. Every skill, every ki technique, every System skill — all ready for further growth.

(This is just the beginning… the world won’t know what hit it.)
