Chapter 41 True Clone Creation, En-One II
The final product, I mean, the final form of En-one was that of a 10 centimeter tall Enigma, with a little bit of chubbiness. He had a small pair of feathered gray wings, two small humps on his temples and a tail that could barely be seen.
It was a unique specie never before seen.
"What... exactly are you making?"
The system couldn\'t help but ask. At first, it thought he was making an angel, then a fallen angel, then a demon. But by the looks of it, it was niether of the above.
"I have no idea." And it seems even he was unaware of what he was creating. This was all an experiment after all. And he just let nature, his imagination, take its course.
"...."
"...."
"Da...da..?" En-one looked up at Enigma and softly asked. Enigma was not ready to accept another child, three were already enough. So he expressionlessly responded;
"...No."
"...."
"...Well that\'s that, lets move on to the subsidiary skills I\'ve recently learned." He smiled and tried to brush over the topic, but the system didn\'t allow him to. It squinted its digital eyes and asked,
"You\'re just going to ignore this?"
"Not really... Isn\'t it just a fallen angel?" Enigma immediately replied, but his tone was quite uncertain, albeit still carefree. The system couldn\'t help but retort to his words.
"They have black wings, and do not have a tail or horns either!!"
"Demon?"
"Since when do demons have feathered wings?!"
"Chicken demon?"
"You\'re hopeless... Even I was better at this than you"
"I was just messing around okay, but now I can\'t pull myself up to kill him. Feels... kind of wrong." He said as he looked at the little guy crawl all the way to his feet, then hanged on to his clothes, slowly climbing his pants.
"So what will you do with him?"
"Drop him off the elven village." He didn\'t hesitate to come up with an answer, one he thought was not a bad idea. The swiftness of the response was ruthless.
But the speechless system couldn\'t help but question him in an exasperated tone. It was wondering who was supposed to be a cold digital machine between the both of them.
"...Isn\'t that also wrong?"
"...To some extent, yes. But to some, no."
But after thinking about it, he realised that it was a bad idea. He sighed and used the newly acquired "Instantaneous Regeneration" to grow back his hand. It looked no different than brand new.
"Come on, En, you shouldn\'t do that, what if you fall and hurt yourself?" He said as he took the small guy, who perfectly fit in a palm and put him on his shoulder.
"I really don\'t know, whether you\'re that bad of a father or you\'re just acting to be that bad of a father"
"What do you mean? I\'m literally 15 yirs old." He began walking ahead without any directions whatsoever, then asked the system with confusion on his face. The system replied, but it felt like it was talking to itself instead of him.
"No, nothing... you\'re still a 15 yir old teen after all. I shouldn\'t expect much from you, I bet you\'re the only one with children among your peers... nevermind"
"...."
Enigma was offended, but ignored those words, which might be true, and kept walking on ahead. One step of his covered hundreds of meters, and the way he so casually did so made one doubt reality itself.
Along the way, he used the [Copy-Wheel Crimson Eyes] and to get better accustomed with their functions. What he loved the most was putting his opponents (wild beasts) into illusions through one glance.
This ability was a bit broken, but not too much. As for the other abilities of the eye, most talented gods had them via their ordinary eyes, which were considered at the divine grade. No, the whole body of a god was a divine grade material.
But Enigma didnt forget that this was just the initial phase of the eyes. There was an evolution above this stage, then another above that one and another even. Perhaps there was the fourth evolution as well.
Just like this, three months passed by in a flash, concluding the first year of staying in Terra. It was strange to him how he didn\'t meet any Sentient species during this time. The only things he found were powerful monsters and beasts, but not enough to threaten a god.
The Region, was as vast as a world (Earth). It resembled a spherical planet, laid down as a flat land. All that area, converted into a plane. This includes the area covered by the ocean.
So even with his speed, that was casually at 100 meters per step, he still wouldn\'t expore the whole world even after constantly walking for three months.
And Enigma had to rest from time to time. There was no need, but he just felt like doing so nonetheless.
Luckily today, when he used the [All-Seeing White Eyes], he managed to spot a relatively small settlement a few kilometers away.
By relatively small, he meant something with around over hundreds of thousands of people.
But on this day, something strange happened. One of the fifty two white sparks of divine power floating above his head that he was unaware of, vanished out of existence.
En-one saw it, but he didn\'t say anything about it. During the twelve weeks, twelve of those things appeared, one vanishing was not strange to him. Only, it was magical and cool, that\'s all.
The system also didn\'t say anything about it. As for the boy who owned said spark, the fact that one was gone didn\'t alert him. Hell, the remaining fifty one didn\'t even alert him also.
"In just a couple of steps, I\'ll be able to reach that place. Finally, a hint of life ever since how long?" Enigma sighed as he saw signs of civilization after being by himself for quite a long time. A whole year to be specific.
Well, he did avoid avoid few settlements, that seemed to be part of the two Empires of this region. Not wanting trouble, he just passed by and moved on.
It has been four seasons since he came to this world, but he has never even met over a hundred people. Can you believe that? Yes, actually, some of his peers might not have even met a single living being.
With a light jump, Enigma covered a large amount of distance. But while he was mid way, an arrow flew towards him as it pieced towards his left eye.
Breathing in lightly, he tensed his muscles, leading the arrow to strike his eye and breaking apart. Not even a scratch was on his eye, how could an ordinary weapon from a mortal wound a god?
Halting in his steps, he looked on ahead and found a group of black... elves? No no no, were they dark skinned? Either way, there were as many as a thousand here, sorounding him.
As a god, this encirclement was child\'s play, but Enigma didnt like starting trouble for no reason, at least for now. He would just forgive them for the previous attack since he was intruding.
This was what he wanted to avoid by not going towards the settlements associated with the Empires. This time, he was just desperate for attention.
And at the same time, he knew they were a lone settlement. Thus, it would be less problematic to deal with this, the an entire Empire.
"Halt, you whitey!! Put down your weapons and lay down on the ground with your hands spread apart!!!" A strong and mighty voice reverberated across the area as it reached his ears.
But the owner didn\'t expect the elf to bow at all. He just said it for fun, with the war going on, the elf were weak against the beastfolk because of their unstable internal structure.
Especially when it was the problem of dark elves and white elves going at each other\'s throats once again. Their rivalry was so much, so that, they\'d treat each other as enemies on sight.
But Enigma was shocked, he looked around and couldn\'t help but point at himself, \'Me? Elf? Do I really look like an elf?\'
"Yes, you!! Do as I say or we will deem you an enemy!!!" The voice once again spoke powerfully, not giving the boy a chance to say anything. A playful smile on his face.
Enigma blinked his eyes in confusion but still obediently lay down on the ground, hands above his head. Pride of a god?
He didn\'t really have such a thing. Plus, boredom can really change a person sometimes.
Believe it. Walking around the forest without finding anything to do, can lower a person expectations to below zero. He did not expect to see anyone, nor find a civilization.
But that aside, it also increased boredom levels to u foreseen heights. To the point where even a sane modern man, might just do what the apes do for fun.
