While Others Are Increasing Their Rank: I'm Creating A Game

In a world where some people possess extraordinary abilities such as controlling air, manipulating water, or having a superhuman physique, how can an ordinary and average person without such talents survive? In 1982, the world entered a new era as some individuals began exhibiting unusual powers. However, this ability only appears in one out of every thousand humans. Governments worldwide agreed to assign ranks to those who possessed these powers to maintain peace. Some individuals, known as S-ranks, possess exceptional abilities and are considered all-powerful by ordinary people. Despite the presence of these extraordinary beings, peace still prevails in society. Cedric Jacquier, a non-manifested individual, had one dream - to create a game and earn money. However, his dream was shattered when his old computer broke down, along with his three-year game project. Cedric was once again left in despair due to his misfortune. Cedric fainted due to malnutrition and health problems. Strangely, a blue window screen appeared before him. Cedric decided to recreate the game he had lost. This led to the creation of a hyper-realistic game that could transport users to another world. The game was called "Atlas" and it quickly gained popularity, with both ordinary people and enthusiasts eager to purchase the game capsule and experience the alternate reality. Despite assistance from the system, Cedric found that creating the game was still a challenging task. He had to develop a compelling storyline, design characters and NPCs to drive the plot forward. Despite facing many challenges, Cedric's determination and use of the Game Creator System enabled him to develop a game that has attracted over 5 billion players worldwide. It is renowned for its incredible graphics and lifelike quality, as well as its captivating plot and storyline. Prologue 1: "Atlas" The game known as "Atlas" and dubbed "with the title "Another World" was renowned for its hyperrealistic graphics. Both individuals with manifested abilities and regular people were able to enjoy the game. "Well hello there folks, welcome to Tonight's show with me your host. Michael Moore, and for our special guest the one and only! The Creator of Atlas with over 3 billion players worldwide! Mr. Cedric Jacquier!" The crowd cheered, many players who experienced the game Atlas were all excited to finally see the mysterious creator. As the red curtains were drawn, many gasped in awe, particularly the female players and audience. Meanwhile, the male audience felt envious. "Ohh hello there Mr. Jacquier, it's nice to finally meet you!" "The pleasure is mine." Cedric and Michael were seated on the sofa, and Michael's excitement was palpable upon seeing Cedric's arrival. He was also one of the select few players in the game. "Talent, wealth, skills, and a man with good looks. Truly you are blessed in many ways, Mr. Jacquier" "Well, I wouldn't call blessed." "Can I ask Mr. Jacquier? Where did you get the idea of creating Atlas?" "Well Michael, It's a long story. Well, I first created Atlas on my computer, it was a 2d game. Then from one problem rose another." "Oh, what kind of problems were there Mr. Jacquier?" "My computer got damaged, erasing the game from its data." "I see, but there are many news that you manifested is that true Mr. Jacquier?" "Nope, I'm not one of the manifested individuals. I'm just a common man, who created a game." "Then can you tell us how you became one of the richest men in the world?" "Well, Michael...In short, when others were busy trying to increase their ranks, I was busy creating the game." ....

'Ohoo…'

Cedric checked Primo's status as well. Primo's status was the same, but the aura skill was added to his stats. Cedric seeing that everyone was busy rebuilding the village decided to leave the game.

Since the crisis was avoided with a twist, Cedric decided to immediately leave the systems room.

As soon as Cedric left the systems room, it was already 8 am. After a quick meal and shower, Cedric left the apartment building and rushed to his job. As soon as Cedric arrived, there was another worker.

"Oh, good morning!"

Elias was sweeping the floor.

"You're still here Mr. Sevon?"

"Please call me Elias instead, besides I'll be working here for quite some time.."

"Oh, well then Elias my name is Cedric it's nice to meet you!"

There wasn't much to do in the shop. And Cedric used this time to sleep since he hadn't had a good sleep for many days now.

….

"Oi Dad! Where's the goddess?!"

Primo holding a wooden axe shouted and stomped the ground walking closer to his father.

"The goddess is resting in her heavenly palace, why?"

"I'm supposed to train with her!"

The village was now all fixed, they even held a small celebration for their goddess.

Primo holding his wooden axe with a dissatisfied expression on his face left the village and sneakily walked through the woods to train.

Meanwhile, Pan was with his mother praying to their goddess's statue.

"Dear goddess please protect us your children from harm."

"Dear goddess please protect us your children from harm."

After praying the mother and son went home.

"Hah, that brother of yours must be training somewhere in the woods.."

"You're not going to get mad at him for sneaking out Mom?"

"Well. I am mad but, hearing how he helped your father from harm and that talent of his for fighting that even the god Orcus commended him for it…I think it will be better if he trains.."

Pan held his mother's hand.

'I'll also train…I'll protect the goddess from harm..'

Meanwhile, Diabo was eating some meat, he was now wearing clothes but the other Beastmen were very uneasy getting close to him.

It was due to his dark aura that the Beastmen felt uneasy, especially with Dux's warning. Dux had warned many of the Beastmen to stay away from Diabo, or never make him angry.

Diabo eating the meat glanced at the small child looking at him.

"Kid….what do you want?"

Terzo who was called out revealed himself from his hiding spot.

"Um…can you teach me? I-I want to be someone like your god Detruire!"

Diabo glanced at the child and continued eating. For Diabo, those who worship another deity were failures.

Diabo has huge loyalty for his god, and a child spouting nonsensical words such as him wanting to become his god Detruire was rather stupid in his head.

"You? Want me to teach you? You're kidding me, right? A failure asking a believer of the god your speaking of, and you what? Want to become like him? Your stupid, a mere failure wanting to walk in the path of my god, your tribe is a fucking failure!"

Terzo instead of feeling hurt, stretched open his hand.

"I...when I saw Detruire using such power, something inside me was awakened! And I awakened this as well.."

On Terzo's hand. A small white ball converged. The white ball started to suck the air creating a small vortex on Terzo's hands.

"Urghhh, I can only manage this much"

Terzo's concentration broke and the white ball disappeared from the air.

"Hah…"

Diabo glanced at the child who was huffing profusely.

"That magi?…."

"When I saw how Detruire used the spherical orbs, I began to make my version…."

Diabo glanced at the child, he stretched his hand and the same white ball converged on his hands. Diabo smiled, and the white ball started to suck air like a vortex.

Diabo stood up and threw the ball into the sky, as soon as the ball reached a certain height, the ball started to spin and suck in more air creating a tornado in the sky.

"Woah"

"You…You have talent even though you're a failure. You said you wanted to become just like my god, well you have a lot to learn.."

"D-Does that mean I can learn from you?!"

Diabo glanced at the child and gave him a thumbs up as he continued eating.

Terzo who saw the thumbs up of approval from Diabo smiled brightly.

….

After coming home from his work. Cedric entered the game, he used the character Lux and arrived inside the game. As soon as Cedric spawned he glanced at all the Beastmen working hard to rebuild their home.

They were also reinforcing the village.

Meanwhile, Dux was being tended by Lenta. His wounds haven't healed yet and he had trouble walking. Many of the Beastmen tribe were having trouble, moving since some had many injuries.

"Goddess!"

Cedric turned around facing the smile on Pan's face.

"Umm, I made this necklace for you my goddess.."

"Oh my, thank you so much, Pan.."

Cedric held the small necklace and wore the necklace.

"It's beautiful thank you, Pan. Now why don't you tour me inside the village?"

"Yes!"

Cedric followed Pan who was holding his hand as they walked inside the village. Cedric was looking at all the Beastmen who would stop in their tracks and bow down to him.

Meanwhile, Dux who wasn't still fully recovered was walking with Lenta who was helping him stand up. Dux bowed his head.

"My goddess me and my mate welcome your presence in our small village."

Cedric glanced at the many wounds the Beastmen tribe had, and he completely forgot to heal their wounds before exiting the game. Cedric felt guilty since many of the wounded had trouble standing up and were still recovering from their wounds.

"Oh my, I completely forgot.."

Cedric tapped on Dux's forehead and immediately Dux's wounds healed. Next, Cedric clasped both his hands and the whole village radiated with green light. Instantly all the wounds from everyone inside the village healed.

Fortis who was still unwell suddenly woke up from his sleep, he clutched his hand that got cut by the monster and suddenly his hand regrown with great speed.

"Urghhh"

Fortis touched his eye that was gouged out, and Fortis took off the bandage, his right eye was back and his vision came back. The only thing left was a huge scar.

"My eye.."

Everyone in the village's wounds had healed.

Dux who could feel the pain from his wound disappear glanced at his goddess and bowed his head once more.

"Thank you, dear goddess!"

Cedric smiled in response.

Meanwhile, Pan who was looking at his goddess clutched his small hands. Looking at everyone in the village who was healed from their wounds and glancing at his father who was bowing his head filled with gratitude.

'I want to be like that!'

Pan glanced at the beautiful smile of his goddess.

'I want to be someone who brings such happiness to my people. I want to protect everyone just like the goddess had brought to my tribe. My goddess, I want to follow in your footsteps!'

"Pan…"

"Yes, my goddess?"

"Can you see the happiness on everyone's faces?"

"Yes.."

"Do you want to protect everyone's happiness?"

Pan glanced at the goddess and nodded his head.

"Then do you want to become my warrior?"

"Warrior?"

Pan tilted his head.

"Ahaha, my warrior. You will serve me the goddess of light, and bring hope and smiles to everyone's faces. As my warrior, you will protect everyone, and serve as their beacon of light. Will you accept my proposal, Pan?"
