The first game alone took dozens of million earth years. I had to change the time flow in my home dimension due to that.
During my time here, I learned a lot about how beings like us work, even our equivalent of gambling was enough for dinosaurs to evolve, get extinct, and for humans to evolve and create civilizations.
The game was erringly similar to many of the manhua and manhwa, or whatever, that I knew about. I thought I would make a save bet by patronizing the human race, only to harshly be reminded that this wasn't a fantasy.
I lost that bet terribly, humans didn't even manage to leave their planet without my help.
Although I lost, I wasn't too upset about it, I got to make some…well, not friends but certainly acquaintances and even obtained a few items from them.
Yog-Sothoth, the Omniscient grandson of Azathoth, was very eager to meet me and trade one of the White Holes I had been searching for with a token of my crystalized power.
Why would someone like him want a part of my power, you might wonder? That was obviously because of his well-known obsession with entering reality and my power of Nothingness allowed me to ignore all restrictions and barriers.
Beings with our power normally have some trouble when entering reality but that was nothing they couldn't ignore if they used a bit more power, he, however, was completely isolated from reality and the usually brittle film around reality turns into an impenetrable barrier when he gets near it.
Not sure if that was because that was just his nature or because his gramps didn't want him to enter but it didn't matter. We both saw no value in what we offered for trade, with his age he definitely came across many White Holes and I just needed to expend a bit of my power.
Of course, I didn't give him a free pass for unlimited realities but only ten, and even that was worth more than the Hole in my opinion.
The power I got was mediocre at best, it only gave a slight increase in energy recovery and growth, the only thing new was that my heart now also produced matter, causing my true body to continue to grow in height and power.
Despite my Omnipotent, there was one thing I couldn't change and that was my true form or the nature of my soul, not that I would want to. I could shapeshift but my true form would always remain the same.
I also got to meet three offsprings of Azathoth, namely Nyarlathotep, Shub-Niggurath, and Magnum Innominandum.
Nyarlathotep was a strange being, it was hard to have a proper conversation with it due to its Omnipresence always drawing its attention away.
Shub-Niggurath was well known for fucking anything and being even less picky about it than Zeus, from what I heard she had fucked more than 90% of the beings here. She invited me to fuck later at one of the orgies she hosts, I didn't straight out deny her, as I mentioned previously, I only get horny every few months or years but it's been millions of years now and I didn't care what I fucked at this point.
Of all the beings I had met during the gathering, Magnum Innominandum, or Magnum as he liked to be called, was the closest thing I could call a friend. He was as nice as someone from the Outerverse can be, he was a good listener and an even better storyteller.
Soon the next game began. It was a battle royal between worlds and races, you know, the usual, the loser dies and gets destroyed and the winner lives and gets all the rewards. Every time a planet won against another, the loser planet got absorbed by the winner planet, making it improve in all directions.
I wasn't as inexperienced anymore and didn't bet on the human race and the planet Earth, instead, I chose another spirit-like race. I would have preferred to bet on a stronger species, like Dragons or Titans, but it seems that many had this idea, some were even fighting for the right to bet on them.
Apparently, there was a maximum limit to how many beings can bet on one race and the more beings bet on the same race, the lower the reward upon winning. Some beings had privileges in choosing a race but that was only if they belonged to this race, for example, all Dragon Gods placed their bet on the dragon race, while many Cultivators bet on the human race.
Anyway, I have a good feeling about this game, it's definitively going to play out better than last time.
