It took Hiro a lot of time to calm down after learning what an upgraded {Simion Space} entailed.
If it could be upgraded once again, does this mean I can simte the environment of thepleted games and try them with my real body? Hiro thought to himself in glee.
Hiro quickly pulled up his real-life character sheet.
[Name: Hiro Sciatis]
ss: Sorcerer.
Level: 32.
XP: 88%
Spells: Sorcerer''s Guide to the Five Elements, Infinite Sword Matrix.
AP: 1,511,183.
Gems: 90.
Servants: Subus Arabe (Lvl 13).
Skills: Immersive Reading, Professional Calligraphy, Analytical Mind, Professional Combat, Professional Ser, Espionage I, Telepathy.
Inventory: Dimensional Key, 80% Discount Voucher (2), Lvl. 1 Mass Enlightenment Scroll, Lvl.2 Mass Enlightenment Scroll, Magic Dragon Summoning Token, Game Voucher.
…
Hiro''s eyes were drawn to thest segment on his character sheet. Since money was just a number to him at this point, he removed his bank bnce and thepany''s bnce from his character sheet.
Instead, he added an inventory option.
Things became much simpler this way.
Hiro also noticed that the only difference between the Lvl1 and Lvl2 enlightenment scrolls was their efficiency, not the cost of use.
Thus, at the moment, he felt like the Lvl1 scroll was a great scam. Nheless, these weren''t things he could buy with just a few gems, so he decided to just keep them.
As for the dragon summoning, he decided to do it inside his pocket dimension and allow her to silently cultivate under the dimension''s core.
Perhaps she could gain something after the mass enlightenment and as the core is slowly transforming.
Hiro figured that the uing mass enlightenment would be the straw to break the camel''s back and allow the dimension to metamorphosis, attuning to thews of sorcery.
Hm, the Unfathomables are about to wee their third member, a Magic Dragon!
Hiro was both excited and impatient. Thus, as an outlet for these emotions, he entered the {Simtion Space}, quit the current sect, and joined one of the top 5 sects in the game.
The Sword God Shrine, is a sect of sword cultivators.
Then, Hiro started doing sect missions crazily to gather contribution points, which he wouldter use to learn the sect''s martial arts and magic spells.
Hours passed quickly, and soon, the bus arrived back at the Inter-High public parking lot where the students alighted from the bus.
Hiro wasn''t in the mind to waste time talking with the other students. After bidding farewell to the students, he quickly approached Sebastian who was waiting next to the car.
Sebastian knew Hiro enough to tell that his master was in a hurry. Thus, he didn''t say anything and quickly escorted Hiro to the mansion.
As expected by the staff in the mansion, Hiro locked himself up in the study.
"Master is so hardworking, I''ve never seen a rich young man this dedicated to his work before."
"Sigh, don''t mention it. Those second-generation Young Masters only know how to spend their family''s hard-earned money, little understand how difficult it is to raise money."
"Okay you two, stop gossiping and go clean the indoor swimming pool and the indoor gym facilities."
"Yes!"
"Right away!"
…
While the servants werementing how little rest their employer enjoyed in his life, he was excitedly looking at the colorful portal that opened right underneath the multicolored dimensional core.
Medusa curled around Hiro''s neck, its triangr head curiously looking at the oval hole in the air.
Soon, a petite silver-haired youngdy with a pair of silver eyes housing elliptical pupils walked out.
She wore a tight-fitting leather skin suit beneath a shining white armor, a long spear floating behind her back.
[Juvia]:
Race: Dragon.
Bloodline: Magic Dragon.
Level: 10.
Skills: Transformation, Dragon Roar, Time Maniption, Political Wisdom VI.
…
Hiro observed Juvia, feeling quite satisfied.
Like Arabe, he exchanged a daily life skill just for her and spent 6,400 points, increasing her proficiency to level 6.
With the management skills of the all-inclusive {Political Wisdom VI}, managing a small province wouldn''t be a problem, let alone an underdeveloped pocket dimension.
After giving Juvia themand to stay here with Medusa to cultivate quietly, he used his current authority in the dimension to teleport silently to the outside world.
Since the dimension''s core was right beneath his feet, a few hundred kilometers underground, he decided to make this location the focal point of the pocket dimension.
Hiro synchronized with his Daoist character to expedite the process of moving around the pocket dimension and finding the ideal location to initiate mass enlightenment.
Then, he burned through his current achievement points and pushed the range of the enlightenment to arge sphere with a diameter of 1,500 kilometers.
A massive halo expanded from Hiro''s body to cover the ground and the sky, like a celestial phenomenon.
Of course, Hiro used the level 2 scroll.
He could feel himself connecting with the minds of countless sentient creatures, both flora and fauna, and he could faintly perceive his image taking root in the depths of their minds.
It was only a faint feeling, but it was akin to a germinating seed that would one day sprout into a magnificent tree.
As the seeds took shape, Hiro began to feel countless inexplicable emotions, millions of fragmented thoughts flooded his mind in shing, brief images.
Immersed in the wonderful feeling, Hiro lost track of his sense of self and time, and he didn''t even pay it any mind when the system notifications shed in his mind.

…
[Notice: Congrattions, you''vepleted your third high-priority mission!
[Mission Briefing: This is yourst mission in the tutorial, and the system had no expectations for you.
[Mission Rating: Excellent.
[Reward 1: 50 gems.
[Reward 2: 1x Game Voucher.
[Reward 3: 10,000 Achievement Points.
[Reward 4: Book of Revtions - Curse Chapter.]
…
Only after the long string of notifications did the wonderful sensation leave Hiro''s body.
He happened to catch notice of the high-priority missionpletion notification, and he opened his eyes in shock.
Tutorial? What do you mean tutorial?!
However, thinking about it, the system did give him a high-priority mission for each critical aspect of this world''s daily life.
If he followed Be''s exnation about this world''s structure, one can only gain a foothold if they covered three fronts; the world in the open, the world in the dark, and the Paranormal Society otherwise known as the world of bosses.
Each of the high-priority missions was tailored to a specific aspect, and they did indeed help Hiro with setting the foundation.
However, without the high-priority missions, Hiro would lose an easy channel for earning 50 gems and game vouchers.
Does this mean that I can only farm gems bypleting games and doing interpersonal missions in the future?
Hiro felt like throwing up. However, those feelings were pushed aside when he took note of his current location.
"Eh? This ce looks both familiar and unfamiliar," Hiro quickly remembered this location.
It was Babylon''s throne room—the final location for the boss battle!
If not for the fact that his synchronized status was canceled the moment he activated the mass enlightenment scroll, he would have thought himself to be in the simtion space.
"Right, this should be the immaterial domain… Mhm, the sensation is right, I''m only here with my consciousness."
ording to the lore in the Legend of Babylon, his throne room existed above the Celestial Bridge, while the bridge was located above the starry sky.
Looking down from the high-back chair stationed on the magnificent throne, Hiro saw a translucent river extending from the foot of the throne towards the infinite distance.
Yes, the throne room wasn''t a room, but rather, an expansive miniature cosmos!
Hiro''s current body was a celestial giant not unlike a roaming celestial body, upying a vast region of space above the stars.
With a thought from his mind, the cosmos shifted, and the river beneath his throne expanded.
In the water, every corner in the pocket dimension was visible, while the ripples in the water disyed fragmented scenes with the inhabitants of the pocket dimension as a focal point.
With another thought, he glimpsed into the game world of the Seeker''s Legend with the flowing faith energy as a medium, and he could even expand upon the channel to view the yers who are offline in their daily lives.
As he focused, he noticed that the shallow river was the concentration of faith energy, as invisible threads tore through the immaterial void and connected to the millions of yers and sentient creatures.
Hiro had the feeling of absolute control; he could draw the consciousness of every creature connected to the river through a thread of faith energy—but this was merely the tip of the iceberg!
For a moment, Hiro forgot about the feeling of being an all-mighty deity and instead, he acted like a child trying out a new toy!
