[Yami's perspective]
The Kingdom of the Humans is too small for a contest. It's bigger than any of the kingdoms but they didn't leave an open space after building.
"How did the Kingdom of the Undead hold the previous contests, Game God?"
I was not used to seeing Game God in its human-like form. It must be the Shapeshifter skill. Game God just looks like a regular bald monk now with a long white beard.
Perhaps to the contestants, this kind of appearance looks "holy". We'll be the judges but why would a god agree to do so for such a tiny competition?
"Those were not competitions. They were massacres. 9 participants were fooled by their massacres each year. Fooled by stories of breaking an almost century long curse."
"That explains why this year we have nearly a thousand to spectate."
"Spectate? Surely you will punish at least two. Would you like Perfect Data to know the exact number?"
"The Registration List will give me the knowledge later anyway. Would I be punished if I investigated the past secrets of the Undead King?"
"I thought you killed the Lord of Time and as punishment you are the Lord of Time. We've punished you enough that saying 'dragon' would add to your pain."
I was about to unleash a new spell I learned.
The dragon that haunts me is dead anyway. Perhaps an item will cure me of this haunted memory.
"I hate to do this much work but, I'll create a battlefield outside Errd. This world has too many buildings."
"Destroy the forest then close to that village."
"I would rather not."
"Well hurry up. There's about 3 hours left until registration. There are already participants sleeping outside the Human Kingdom."
"Some are filthy spies. A needle should solve this."
I took the dust from within me to form a sharp needle and enchant it with the task of killing spies. These are not regular spies that gather information for the Finals.
The spies are for the universal boss event.
"Spying on the Dark Lord is punishable by death. If any adventurer above lvl 10,000 was foolish enough to be a spy themselves, then I have eliminated vermin that would die anyway in our battle. I have properly followed the rules befitting of a 'Universal Boss'."
"Nope. I'll add those changes anyway. The Universe Serpent has about less than 10 skills. Look at you."
"Then give the other universal bosses some free will, a voice and common skills."
"I'll think about it. Go build the arena. I'll make updates back at the realm."
I'll get on his good side for now. The assistant position matters to me.
"Congratulations."
"For what Yami?"
"You've been awake for two hours."
"Ha Ha! Indeed. I have never been awake for this long. My position in today's contest will bring forth a new "awake" record."
Game God left with a teleportation spell. My teleportation spell is not yet as good as Game God's.
I can travel between galaxies but I cannot reach the "ceiling" of the universe that fast.
The Realm of The Gods is way way up that most would give up.
Many think the universe has no boundaries but I've found one face of the cube, the top surface.
The "bottom-most" of the universe is just pitch black but my feet can step on it.
If the feet of other beings did, they would die by command of King Grimm.
I've never found the Throne Seat of King Grimm as it's not placed in the center of the vast universe but it's...somewhere. Maybe at the edge east.
Perhaps I should teleport outside the world of Errd to find a space for building the arena.
Should it look like a colosseum? Maybe just a void cube with many rooms.
It might be better as a huge dome with different zones and barriers.
A flat plane made with the strongest material?
I feel like I've seen these kind of arenas before. Would Game God know if I just copied an arena I remembered from another game?
I'll stop time for Errd. The present Errd. Then go back to investigate the past competitions.
Or I could...
