As soon as the rift appeared, we had the realization that we had at long last achieved our goal, and the soul had responded to our summons.
At that precise instant, a resounding confirmation of our efforts echoed through the system, reaching the ears of every item holder who had played a part in activating the formation. The confirmation of our earlier convictions sent a surge of elation through us, instilling a profound sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.
[Summoning successful.]
[In response to your beckoning, Greed descends upon your world.]
And very quickly, a ray of light originating from within this rift, illuminating the whole world with its radiance as brilliant as the sun, entered the body that we had previously created, which lay in the middle of the formation.
We were finally successful. Using every available resource, we were able to create a human with the potential to lead the human race.
In addition, we felt an extra measure of happiness due to the fact that the soul that responded to our call was Greed, which was also in accordance with our objective. Despite the fact that the soul arrived with no memories, we recognized the enormous potential in cultivating and channeling this infant entity's greed in the right direction. It had the potential to become the ultimate weapon for our world and our race if it was taken care of properly and guided in the right direction.
All that remained for us to do was raise him using all of our knowledge while patiently waiting for him to reach adulthood.
However, just as things seemed to be progressing smoothly, an unexpected situation arose. We received a system message that informed us we did not have the luxury of time to allow the baby to grow and develop into a full-fledged item holder.
We learned that the impending world war was approaching much sooner than anticipated, leaving us with only a few years to nurture and train this child into a formidable item holder before the next world war.
While we could accelerate the physical growth of the child using time-based skills and formations, imparting all our techniques and knowledge posed a significant challenge. We had to strike a delicate balance between teaching him while also ensuring he gained valuable life experiences. Moreover, we had to carefully prevent any premature awakening, desiring him to become an item holder only when he had fully reached his potential.
And taking into account all of these challenges, we came to the conclusion that one more item formation was necessary.
We have established a new formation that has allowed us to create an alternative world. This world will allow for a different flow of time than in our world, and it will ensure that his development is successful. In this manner, even though only a few months would pass in our world, he would have lived in the alternative world that we created for a considerable amount of time.
To prevent the child from prematurely awakening, we imposed restrictions on his real physical body, ensuring that he would not experience accelerated growth during this crucial period. Additionally, in order to solely concentrate on his character growth and force him to give all of his attention to the techniques we teach him through this world, we made the conscious decision to create a world devoid of item holders and special powers, a world where ordinary people prevailed.
And once everything was ready, we started the process of formation and began our roles as gods to observe and shape his destiny in this world for his development.
To begin, given that his character possesses the trait of greed, we felt obligated to make the most of its potential. Accordingly, we chose to bring him up in a typical orphanage under the guise of an orphan who has never had a family.
The outcome was exactly as we had anticipated, and as a normal human child, his initial greed was to be the center of attention from those around him.
He was not an incredible genius, but only because of his desire to attract the attention of those around him did he begin to achieve things that were incredible for his age.
First, he learned to walk when he was very young, then he picked up speaking, and finally, he taught himself how to write.
However, as a result of our interventions, these things, which in normal circumstances would shock everyone and lead them to believe that he was an incredible genius, failed to attract the attention of anyone.
As a consequence of this, when he realized that he was not going to be able to accomplish his objective, he began making even more of an effort.
He began helping out around the dorm by performing tasks that, for someone his age, would be an extremely difficult burden to bear. He began assisting the staff in the dorm by preparing meals and doing laundry. In the mornings, he would rise early and write lyrics and poems in the hopes that they would be noticed by someone, and in the evenings, he would clean the entire dorm room using nothing more than a simple cloth.
Desperate to prove his worth and capture attention, he resorted to extreme measures, attempting to set fire to the entire dormitory multiple times, but his actions only resulted in further indifference and disregard from those around him.
Sadly, despite his efforts, he remained devoid of the desired love and attention from others, to the extent that he wasn't even given a name until he reached the age of six.
When we saw him putting in so much effort just to get the attention and love that he craves, it deeply shocked all of us, and of course, it caused some of us, including myself, to feel sad. Despite this, we persisted with the project by closing off our emotions and convincing ourselves that all of these things are essential for his future as well as the future of our world.
It was essential for us to impart the understanding that in life, regardless of one's efforts, there would always be unforeseen circumstances leading to failure. It was imperative that we ensure that he never gave up, just as it was imperative that we ourselves never gave up despite the fact that our world was in danger of being destroyed over and over again.
At the end of it all, when he was 6 years old, we made the decision to present him with an award to at least demonstrate that all of his hard work hadn't been in vain.
Then we decided to give him a name that would one day carry the weight of his extraordinary destiny and resound throughout the entire universe.>
