20 20 Greg

Crafting LVL 100 (MAX)

Because he had also been able to Max out his Crafting to the max in the past month by grinding proficiency points by sharpening any random rock he saw. It was actually pretty easy to level it up since as long as you create something, it will award you with points depending on how well-made t was.

If you didn't fully rely on the autocorrect function of the skill, there would be bonus points. Alex was able to easily take advantage of this function and actually maxed it out before the Mana Manipulation which he used the most.

Now, because of his max crafting level, the wall he easily made was very simple but somehow perfect and very pleasing to look at in other people's perspectives. Each plank was perfectly aligned and nailed together that there are barely any gaps visible. Alex had also shaved the surface of the planks so they looked very smooth.

However, that was just a test to see what he could really do. Now that he found that he can easily build houses, he went on with it immediately. He hurriedly made perfect pillars with the assistance of his skill and made the most stable foundation the skill could teach him.

He then started quickly building the rest of the house by summoning more tools and hands. At first glance, it would look similar to the houses back in the city. However, Alex added very small details that instantly elevated its aesthetics. For example, a porch. It was a very simple addition but the people of this world don't seem to have thought of it. Alex also added some flower boxes surrounding the house. Unfortunately, no real flowers were growing out of them.

He also added a bit more designs to everything he could such as furniture, the door frames, the doors themselves, windows, and window frames.

To Alex, he did quite like the angular designs of modern architecture. However, Alex was dealing with wood and to him, he never liked the modern look on wood. Instead, he preferred the circular or curvy designs very much. Anyway, that was his opinion.

Thankfully, Crafting was an all-rounder skill and also gave him excellent carving skills to carve out the designs he had thought out.

Meanwhile, everyone was watching in awe as Alex was building a house alone in minutes when people usually build it in groups and it would take days to weeks. Months even if they're building a bigger house.

Lander on one side was still cursing, "Damn geniuses."

After a while, a house was fully built in a few minutes in front of everyone's stunned gazes. Alex, seeing their reactions felt quite proud. He was then about to make a short speech to his people about how they would no longer be living as miserably as before when he suddenly felt the world spinning.

His vision then turned black and he felt himself lose control over his body. He then helplessly fell down on the ground, startling everyone.

Gordon and Lander were the first to arrive beside him, followed by the worried crowd after seeing Alex faint so suddenly. Lander scanned Alex with his Soul Force and said, "It doesn't look like he depleted his Soul Force. In fact, he still has a lot. His body is also very healthy."

His brows furrowed together as he tried to think of a solution but he couldn't come up with anything when he didn't even know what to solve in the first place. Unbeknownst to everyone, Alex had arrived at a blank and empty space.

Alex was scared shitless when he suddenly found himself here and was about to start panicking. However, before he could do anything, a man appeared out of nowhere and said, "Dude, relax. You're safe. This is just deep inside your consciousness. Out can freely leave if you want."

Alex was startled by the sudden appearance of an unfamiliar man. He observed the man a bit and found nothing out of the ordinary. In fact, he looked quite an average guy. Loose and messy black hair, lazy eyes, and a casual smirk on his lips.

What got Alex's attention was that the guy was wearing a hoodie and sweatpants. That can only mean one thing.

"You... You're from Earth!", Alex exclaims.

"Hahaha yep. Got that right. Try guessing who I am.", the man chuckles.

"Were you another player?"

"Yeah... and?", the man asks as if to say he missed something else.

"And?... Don't tell me you... You're the current Creation God!!!", Alex exclaims loudly as he stares at the man with wide eyes.

The man again chuckles but his eyes suddenly turned indifferent, as if he's staring at something insignificant. His aura suddenly becomes suffocating as he flares off the majesty of a god. He stared down at Alex and says, "That's right, mortal. I am the Almighty God of Creation... Greg!!!"

"Bruh..."

Greg then sighs and says, "Never thought I'd hear that word again but it is indeed the perfect word to say in this situation. Oh well, it's the name my parents chose and it isn't really a bad name. Just... Not majestic enough for a god."

Alex nods.

"Before we start talking though, can you like summon us some bean bags to get comfy a bit? Before you ask, this is inside your mind so whatever you want, you can make it happen here."

Alex again nods and poof! Two bean bags appeared. Alex and Greg plops down and then started once more.

"I want to ask first, what year was it when you came here?", Greg asks.

"Why?"

"Dude, you have no idea how ridiculous and magical this place is. Billions of years had already passed for me but probably a day had only passed by on Earth. Like, the guy that was 2 eras behind me was taken in 2017. I was also taken in 2017. We were only months apart on Earth but in here, trillions of years had passed. That's not all. The guy behind me came from 2020. Dude came from the fucking future."

"Really? I was taken in 2018, just one year apart from you.", Alex says in shock.

"Dudee, you got lucky."

"Why?"

"2020 guy said that something happened in 2019. It started when someone ate a bat and a year later, the world became shit."

"Dudeee..."

"Dudeee..."
