"This world is fucked," an eighteen-year-old teenager cursed as he looked at the crimson skies above. The oppressive hue painted the city in a perpetual twilight, casting eerie shadows on the faces of the passersby.
With his hands shoved deep in his hoodie's pockets, Linsley strolled through the streets.
The city was bustling, but not with life. The people moved in eerie synchronization, their eyes vacant, their steps measured. It was as if an invisible puppeteer controlled them, dictating their every move.
Each person wore a collar, a silver name tag glinting under the blood-red sunlight. Linsley's own collar felt heavy around his neck, a constant reminder of his enslavement. His name, "Linsley Sinclair," was etched on the tag, marking him as property of the Outer God.
Despite his striking appearance—purple hair and eyes that shimmered with an unnatural luster—Linsley found no joy in it.
In this world, beauty was a curse. The Outer God collected beautiful boys and girls, turning them into playthings for its sick amusement.
He shivered at the thought, imagining the wretched tentacles violating his body. The fear was a constant companion, gnawing at his sanity.
Walking through the streets, the blood-colored sunlight shone down upon Linsley's handsome face. The city throbbed with activity, but the people moved like machines, their expressions blank. It was a city without life, a city of slaves.
Returning home, Linsley couldn't help but mutter, "How unlucky I am."
'To be transmigrated into this god-forsaken world,' he thought bitterly.
A world where the god of Terra had been devoured, leaving humanity at the mercy of the Outer God. The only silver lining was that the Outer God hadn't fully devoured the world yet. The Will of the World was still resisting, and some humans had awakened abilities under its blessing.
Female humans had become magical girls, while the males could summon mecha armors and become mecha drivers. Even Linsley had to admit that the World Will had good taste.
Unfortunately, despite being a transmigrator, Linsley hadn't obtained a special ability or blessing from the World Will.
'Maybe, not being blessed by the World Will is considered a blessing. The lives of those who joined the resistance weren't that great despite having superpowers. They were like rats in a sewer, constantly hiding from the minions of the Outer God.'
'I was transmigrated into this world three years ago. The Outer God arrived and devoured this world's god a year ago.'
'Yet in just a year, the entire human race, aside from those who joined the resistance, had been enslaved and reduced to livestock.'
As Linsley wallowed in depression, thinking about how messed up the world was, he was snapped back to reality by a sound.
-Ding!
[The God Simulator has been integrated into your soul!]
-Ding!
[It has been detected that the host's soul has been marked by the Outer God.]
-Ding!
[The system has successfully eradicated the Outer God's slave mark without alerting the Outer God.]
-Ding!
[It has been detected that the host's mind has been polluted by the Outer God's insanity.]
-Ding!
[The host's mind has been purified and the host is now immune to the Outer God's mental pollution.]
Linsley blinked, reading through the messages. "Fuck," he whispered. He hadn't even realized the extent of his enslavement.
"This world is too damn fucked up," he muttered. "I didn't even notice the slave mark and the mental pollution."
Taking a deep breath, he asked, "What are your features, and who is your creator?"
[The God Simulator was created by the Will of the Infinite Realities to save this multiverse from the Outer Gods' corruption.]
[The host "Linsley Sinclair" has met the conditions to become the host of the God Simulator. While others also met these conditions, the host was chosen through a lottery, indicating superior luck.]
[The main feature of the God Simulator is to create a simulated body and let it transmigrate into another world. The simulated body will enter the simulation, creating an alternate timeline influenced by the host's actions.]
[The simulation is divided into two types: normal simulation and full-dive simulation. In a normal simulation, the host sees a text-based simulation and cannot directly affect it while it's ongoing.]
[In a full-dive simulation, the host directly transmigrates to the simulated world instead of using a simulated body.]
[The God Simulator's goal is for the host to become a god in every simulated world. The host must complete the normal simulation and become a god before entering the full-dive simulation.]
[If the host dies in the normal simulation, it won't cause true death since it's only a simulated body. However, if the host dies during a full-dive simulation, it results in true death.]
Hearing about the full-dive simulation, Linsley asked, "What rewards will I obtain for completing a full-dive simulation?"
[Upon completing a full-dive simulation, the host will gain ownership of the simulated world and become its World God. As the World God, the host can control everything in the world, including the World Will and its inhabitants. The host can also visit this world whenever and wherever he wants.]
[And that's not all. As long as the host achieves a simulation score of Good or above, the host can receive items, powers, and talents obtained from the simulation. Regardless of the simulation score, the host will always receive memories and knowledge from the simulation.]
Learning that he could obtain powers from the simulation, Linsley's interest was piqued. However, he still asked cautiously, "What's the price for starting the simulation? And do you have any specific goals for me?"
Linsley was wary of being used as a pawn in a larger scheme by the Will of the Infinite Realities. But considering his current predicament, where he would have been enslaved by the Outer God and driven insane without the system, he figured he had nothing to lose by asking.
[The host can use his powers as he wishes. However, the Will of the Infinite Realities requests that the host save this multiverse from the invasion of the Outer Gods. If the host chooses not to, that is also acceptable.]
[There are infinite realities within this verse. Losing one multiverse is insignificant, so the host can choose to save it if he feels like it.]
[Furthermore, there is no cost for using the God Simulator. The host receives one simulation opportunity every day.]
[Does the host want to start the simulation?]
