12 The Passage of Time II

I spent the next two thousand years adapting to fire and pain. I even gained pain nullification, so I could no longer feel physical pain. I say physical pain because I can still be hurt emotionally and I do have a soul so there is probably a way to cause pain to it. I asked my system if I could gain soul pain nullification and even emotional pain nullification.

In response to the first question, the system said I could if the system caused pain to my soul every now and then. In response to the second question, I could not gain pain nullification emotionally, as the system said that many other system users gained that and went on killing sprees.

By killing sprees I mean they went around destroying multiverses. I had no idea at the time what a multiverse was so I asked the system and it told me it was a collection of many many many universes put together. After realizing that I was shocked that other universes exist and other multiverses as well, the system said this was called the omniverse.

Anyway back to what I did over two thousand years, I gained more power and I hadn't gained another ability during that time. I suppose that makes sense considering the system said I gain abilities much slower than power. I trained all of my abilities to max level during this time too except for power replication as I hadn't seen, smelled, or heard of anyone else with abilities.

I also didn't stay awake for all of the two thousand years. I was awake for about eleven hundred years, during that time I just lived with humans, and when my good friends came close to death I would leave. One time however I didn't leave and watched as those friends around me died, the reason I was even able to stay this long is that I made the illusion I was married and had a son.

I didn't but it worked and I lived as a descendant of myself. I changed my appearance greatly but not too much so you could still tell I was related to "my father" and "my mother". As I watched the friends I once knew become frail, old and die, I couldn't take it anymore and created the illusion that my "son" at the age of about thirty or so died.

Once that happened I stopped getting close to humans altogether, knowing that eventually, they would leave me. When I stopped befriending and hanging out with humans, I built a house for myself made of wood. It was a one-story, one-room house so nothing too fancy and it was located in the mountains.

I built it in the mountains because it was fairly far away from any humans currently, and I could also look down at the human ants from atop my mountain of awes-ahem sorry got a little carried away. That last bit was a joke, but I really built it atop a mountain because it's cool and it's far from humans at the moment.

I mention at the moment, and currently, because in the future humans have planes and can just fly over my mountain or something like that. They could even hike up here, and heck for all I know the mountain I am on now could be where plains are in the future.

Back to current time I am waking up from my couple hundred-year slumber and look around at where I built my house. It was in ruins and covered in snow, and it made me a bit sad that my house was like this but I currently have a different problem.

Well, it's not really a problem but I would like it if I had clothes. Due to time my clothes have aged and are now pretty much unusable. Thinking on that I decide I don't want clothes at the moment it's not like I have the male genitalia or the butt, and anus either. My hair that was previously pretty long is now even longer, I do sometimes cut it or shapeshift it to what it originally was but I like how it is right now.

How it is now is down to my thighs, and speaking of hair I can't grow facial hair. I can if I want to, but I don't so my human form can't grow facial hair. Enough talk of hair, I move through the ruins of my home and look at some of my stuff which is now mostly destroyed by time.

I no longer keep weapons with me since I don't live with humans, so there were none of those in the ruins of my home. I begin throwing out the stuff I had before, and begin rebuilding my home and furnishing it with furs and the like.

Upon finishing such a task it looked almost the same as before. It didn't take me long to get back the fur carpets and things so I walked into my home and started making things that hopefully future humans will find, for example, I took a rock, smoothed it out, broke it in half, and wrote stuff in random symbols that mean nothing, and when I got close to where I broke it off I made it seem that it continued.

I think it will be funny if humans in the future find this and think it means some divine prophecy or something, or the last thing of an ancient civilization, or maybe they will think aliens wrote it and left. I chuckle to myself as I think of the possibilities.

Author Note: I haven't been updating as much when I started making this story and the reason is I am just not as excited about making this story as I was before. This doesn't mean I will drop the story or anything, it just means that I will be posting less than I did before. I told someone this in a comment when someone asked if I would be dropping this story.

Also, I should have probably finished the arrow, supergirl, and legends of tomorrow so I will start watching those again to finish them.

Thanks for over 90k views on this story of mine as well, I would say I'm surprised but I'm kinda not as it is kinda easy for a webnovel author to get views on things. So I want to thank the over four hundred collections on this story, and on that note, I hope you have a wonderful rest of your day, and life I suppose too. :D
