God of Systems: Maker of Heroes and Villains

Even though he now had enough of the "mysterious energy" to spin the wheel, he could tell that he hadn't reached the max as the gacha wheel only had white and yellow sections. But he never had any plans on spinning the wheel so early as he had a theory in mind that he wished to work on.

'Creating my own system... I should try it.' he thought as he took a deep breath and stared at the calm river water. The night had just passed and it was early in the morning right now, which meant that the water would be extremely cold.

Even then, he closed his eyes and steeled his mind before taking off his clothes. With just an underwear on, he jumped in. The cold assaulted his body, making him shiver uncontrollably but after a few minutes, he got used to the cold. It still felt cold, but he wasn't shivering anymore.

With is body submerged in the water up to his neck, he focused on his system creation.

As he tried to control his powers, he recalled the one line that had appeared on the window of Maria, the archbishop's room back when he was too shocked thanks to the message that said, "Found you, my one and only Fwyd Chicken!"

'So this whole system gacha and ability to give out systems were both thanks to the hidden divinity that's inside me. Should I consider the so called mysterious energy as Divine energy instead?' he thought before he began focusing his powers.

The energy that was consumed when he spun the gacha wheel always felt different compared to the so-called mental energy that he used to give out system rewards for others. They were inherently different, but Keith had originally thought that the energy consumed when he spun the wheel, was spiritual energy.

The novel written my Red Snow, or in other words Emma Clankton, had four different types of energies. Physical, Mental, Spiritual and Divine. There were others like Chaos and Demonic energies, but those were just corrupted derivations of the first four kinds. There were a few other kinds too, but they weren't given too much importance in the novel.

Most awakened abilities consumed either physical, mental of both physical and mental energies to manifest in the real world, but there were a few that utilised Spritual energy too.

An example of this could be Clara's Divine Blessing or Amelia's Midnight Princess.

A combination of Mental and Physical based on whom Keith had met until now, was Laura's snake transformation and Brandon's stone skin. Every single transformation type was a combination or Mental and physical energies.

This was the same for almost every single physical boost as they were all based on solely physical energy.

If there was one that was a combination of all physical, mental and spiritual energies, then that would be Nathan's summoning of his Holy Knight armor set that boosted his physical abilities too.

Adam's was a combination of Mental and Spiritual as it did not really boost his physical abilities and only summoned bullets. But there was a chance of it having some physical energy involved as the bullets existed permanently after their creation.

Regular summoned things or creatures would disappear once the user was exhausted, but Adam's never did.

The first three energies were present in every single human being, but those that awakened, possessed the ability to control one to three of these energies in a specific way that was directly imprinted onto their DNA.

But everything would change when it came to Divine energy as it was on a league of it's own. There were two ways to produce Divine energy, or in other words, cultivate.

First method was the one that independent gods used, also called the true gods by the author of the novel. Each one of these gods' had access to a specific law of the universe from life and death to space and time.

As long as things or events occurred that had any kind of relation to a specific universal law, then divine energy would be produced and would go to the god/goddess who was in charge of that specific law.

It was thanks to this reason that none of the True gods had any interest in creating any churches.

On the other hand, there were the "False Gods" whose existence could be explained by their dependence over humans to survive. In fact, they were actually just awakened humans who had reached enough strength to make people think that they were god-like existences.

These gods needed two things to produce divine energy. It was the so called faith, which was basically a combination of mental and spiritual energy. But this was only 50% of what they'd need to create divine energy.

Along with faith, they'd need dependence on a specific type of action. For god of war, he'd love to see humans wage war against each other as this would help him accumulate a lot of divine energy at once.

The only reason why the continent was at peace for almost 2 to 3 centuries was thanks to Balmond, the god of war, needing to accumulate faith. Without enough faith, no matter how much the humans waged war, he wouldn't be able to accumulate divine energy.

This was the exact reason why God of Money, Mammon was so powerful. People loved money, they used money all the time and he had a lot of people praying to him for a stable life or great fortune.

Thanks to this, it didn't matter if it was war or peaceful times, he'd manage to get his share of divine energy no matter what.

This was one of the core reasons for the God of Money, Mammon to be so strong. Second was the goddess of protection, Seraphina. Third, fourth and fifth places were taken by Galen the God of Medicine, Balmond the God of War, and finally, Goddess of Art, Seraphelle who was canonically the twin sister of Goddess Seraphina.

'I have a clear path to becoming a god, but it's going to be extremely hard and dangerous if I don't act carefully.' he thought.
