"These quests seem a little too on the nose. How am I supposed to create time?"
Ji Chen frowned at the glowing panel suspended in the void. Infinite darkness stretched around him—silent, still, without motion or measure.
Fortunately, the system seemed to read his thoughts and opened a new panel.
[Opening Selected Quest…]
[Quest]: Create Time 0/1
[Description]: Time is the fundamental construct of the universe—the pulse of existence. As the God of Creation, the awakening of your universe requires the birth of time.
"Seems easy enough."
He gazed into the endless expanse, imagining birth and death intertwining. The longer he imagined, the more the void rippled to his will.
But what was time? A loop? A flow? A cycle?
"Should I make it like an ouroboros? …Nah."
"Maybe a Möbius strip? Too sci-fi."
Idea after idea formed and vanished—until clarity struck.
"Time devours itself like an ouroboros, endless like a Möbius strip. Yet it encompasses all things. It shouldn't be circular—it should move. It should define progress."
He raised his hand.
"Then time shall be the axis—the invisible spindle that spins the cosmos."
The void trembled. A faint glimmer appeared at the center of infinity, stretching forward and backward all at once. It expanded, spiraling into an endless current.
He named it—the Origin Singularity.
From that singular point, radiant waves pulsed outward in perfect intervals. Each wave marked a moment—the first seconds, minutes, and eons. As the ripples accelerated, they coiled into a vast spiral threading past, present, and future together.
That spiral became the Axis of Time.
[Congratulations]
[You have accomplished a feat no being in this universe has achieved.]
[By creating Time, you have awakened a new Concept.]
[Concept Unlocked]: Father of Time
[Ability]: The laws of time no longer apply to you. You are unbound—without past or future. No being can wield time against its creator.
Now that time existed, Ji Chen smirked.
"Let's make things official."
[Creating New System Tab…]
[Age]
After all, what kind of young god didn't want to sound ancient?
"System, how old is the universe currently?"
[As of now, the universe is aged 0.]
[Before you created time, the universe existed in stillness.]
[During your assimilation, the process lasted twenty million Primes.]
{Primes – A unit of existence used to measure events outside the bounds of time.}
[Now that time is defined, the universe's measurable age is exactly: 1 minute.]
Ji Chen sighed.
"A little underwhelming, but I'll take it. At least I exist now."
[System Update]
[Because you have comprehended Truth, a new Concept has awakened.]
[Concept]: I Am Who I Say I Am
[Description]: As the Creator of this universe, your words define its laws. What you believe becomes Truth; what you speak, the universe obeys.
"Now that's more like it."
His eyes gleamed.
"Finally starting to feel like a god."
