With the influx of new knowledge flooding his mind, Carter felt a profound shift within himself. His very essence seemed to expand. He could sense it—the power was greater than anything he'd experienced before. The equations, the understanding, all of it had opened up vast possibilities. But with that came questions—questions he couldn't shake.
Carter continued to fully comprehend the equations,The weight of his newfound abilities. His thoughts wandered, pondering his place in the universe, the reason behind this transformation. Why him? Why had he been given such authority, such unimaginable power?
"Hey system… what exactly am I?" Carter asked aloud, his voice tinged with uncertainty.
[SYSTEM]
The host is an ever-evolving celestial body.
"Is that it?" Carter's brow furrowed. "No further details?"
[SYSTEM]
That is all the information I can currently provide. If the host wishes to understand more about his existence, the host must continue to evolve.
Carter let out a long, exasperated sigh. "Blues clues, huh? Always dodging my questions. Whatever…" He shook his head, knowing the system wasn't likely to give him more answers anytime soon.
[SYSTEM]
The host has now reached the stage to support life and possesses the equations necessary to create it. Would the host like to enter the Planet Functions tab?
Carter's attention snapped to the screen. His curiosity had been piqued, and this was the moment he'd been waiting for. "I was just about to. Yeah, direct me toward it."
The screen flickered and presented a series of options:
Population: The number of inhabitants to populate the planet.
Mountain Ranges: The size and formation of mountain ranges.
Plantation: The variety and density of plant life.
Oxygen: The level of atmospheric oxygen.
Pressure: The atmospheric pressure of the planet.
Sea Level: The height of the ocean's surface.
[SYSTEM]
The host has acquired all the equations needed to establish the properties of a habitable planet. Would the host like to begin?
Carter's heart raced with excitement. His mind buzzed with possibilities.
"No need to ask, system. Let's do this."
And as he prepared to act, his curiosity swelled even further. What more was there to him, to his powers? Was this just the beginning? Or was something greater waiting on the horizon?
