Creation System: Reborn As A Fantasy Worldsmith



The golden arches of the morning sun swam over the air, creating a golden hue within the atmosphere. Lyrian awoke that day with a simple plan.

Firstly, although he wanted to go into the forbidden area and retrieve the golden tiered beast core, he knew that it would be foolish to do so without any plan of action or information beforehand.

So, for another few days he decided that he was going to continue to hunt with the group. As he hunted he would get better at using his skills and sword, preparing him more for the golden tiered creature, and also, he wanted to learn more stuff about the forbidden lands.

Two days quickly passed by after Lyrian's second day in the exam, making it now the fourth day.

He woke up and went to the middle of the camp where there was a meeting held each and every morning.

"Folks! We have made great progress for these past few of days! If we continue this, I have no doubt that we will all pass this exam flawlessly!" Arthur proclaimed from atop the hill.

Many kids rejoiced upon hearing this, their woes of passing an ever-so-feared test slowly dwindling away as they continued to be in this group.

Out from the happy crowd however, one sour voice suddenly spoke up.

"How many points do we have in total?!" Cedric yelled, his tone angry.

As the crowd silenced, Arthur looked at him, pausing only a moment before speaking, "Why do you want to know? Like I said, we are already well on our way to passing, so there is no reason for you to worry." Arthur calmly stated.

Hearing this, a small murmur of whispers amongst a few in the crowd began to sound. Although Arthur tried to seem calm, there was no doubt to some that his words did not sound perfectly reasonable.

"What the hell are you talking about!? If we were on track to passing, what would be the problem in you telling us how many points we had!?" Cedric snapped back.

"Oh god, here he goes again with this bull crap!" A sole kid shouted out from the crowd, expecting matching reactions from everyone else.

"No... I think he's right." A kid next to him suddenly said.

"What!? How could you possi--" The kid who dissed Cedric quickly interrupted by the several voices that began to speak up against his views.

"Yea, if we were going to pass, there wouldn't be any real risk of any sort by revealing the number of points right?" Another kid agreed, as over 30 kids began to state their opinions agreeing with Cedric.

The crowd of kids agreeing with Arthur were also still present, causing a loud dispute amongst the crowd.

"Everyone, listen!" Arthur yelled out abruptly, causing everyone to fall silent again to hear what he was going to say.

"There is actually a risk. If I were to say the exact number of points, a theif wanting to steal the cores could simply go in at the right moment and take all the cores for themselves, ridding us all of our chances to pass. Would anyone like that!?" He also raised his voice to the crowd, who remained silent.

Right as Cedric was about to reply, another voice chimed in.

"That's a flawed argument." Alten suddenly said from the back amid the crowd, catching the eyes of many beside him.

"What?" Arthur questioned.

"If one was going to steal the cores anyways, knowing the amount that there was would make little to no difference on their likability to steal. All they would need to do is some hypothetical math, or just wait a few more days before taking the cores. So, hiding the number of cores for such a reason would suggest that you aren't hiding them for such a noble reason as you prelude."

Alten's tone was calculated and precise, reinvigorating Cedric's side of the group as they began to assult Arthur with insults and concerns.

"Exactly! What the hell are you hiding!?" A kid shouted.

"Just show us the cores you coward!"

...

Lyrian already knew what Alten said was true. It was apparent from the start that Arthur was clearly trying to keep his calm, implying that he was lying.

"Thats it! You said that no one should enter the forbidden area, but I feel like that's just another one of your propaganda! I'm going there where you like it or not! Who's coming with me!?" Cedric suddenly yelled, as several other voices supported behind him.

"What!? No! Don't be stupid! You will all get eliminated instantly! Use your stupid brain for a moment and think damnit! If we just continue to hunt, we will pas--" Arthur began to get flustered as he was suddenly cut off.

"Shut the hell up! We are going to pass with the golden tiered beast core and other high tier cores!" A kid from the crowd shouted against Arthur, as many gathered behind Cedric.

Without any delay, Cedric began to storm towards the forbidden area, with a group of over 50 kids following alongside him.

Although Cedric was a buffoon, Lyrian couldn't help but accept that he was right in this situation, and that Arthur did seem quite suspicious.

So, he decided to follow along. As it turned out, Leon, Alten and Glis also found Cedric's point reasonable, so they also came.

'I wanted to go there but... I didn't expect this to be so easy.' Lyrian thought to himself as he made his way to the forbidden lands.
