I Just Make Systems, Don’t Blame Me!
Ethon Cross was just an ordinary man struggling to pay rent—until a mysterious, sentient treasure crashed through his window, obliterating his last meal in the process. The treasure, now in the form of an impossibly handsome teenage boy named Adrian, claims to be an ancient artifact of Chaos, powerful beyond imagination… but currently running on fumes.
Bound together by an unbreakable contract, Ethon learns of the vast multiverse—where powerful beings cultivate energy, wield magic, command faith, and harness advanced technology. Yet, in his home universe, the flow of extraordinary energy is weak, making progress slow and frustrating. Adrian, while knowledgeable, lacks the energy to boost Ethon's growth directly.
But Ethon is no fool. Instead of walking the long path of cultivation, he devises a genius plan—why struggle to get stronger when he can make others do it for him? By creating and distributing mysterious system-like abilities to different factions across the universes, he can generate power passively, reaping the benefits as they grow stronger. The more they use the systems, the more energy flows back to him.
However, meddling with fate is a dangerous game. The Universal Consciousness loathes anomalies, and powerful forces seek to control or destroy anything beyond their grasp. As his influence spreads, Ethon must keep his identity hidden, navigate cosmic politics, and survive the chaos he inadvertently unleashes.
After all, he's just a guy making systems. If they disrupt civilizations, start wars, or create godlike beings… well, that’s not his fault. Right?
