"Are you sure about this John?" Asked and incredulous Smith. "You are aware that you have not got long to live right? Maximum 15 years give or take?"
"Yes, I want to enter the competition for the next heir." I replied back. I know I haven't got long to live. But I have to grasp every single chance to live as long as possible, till one of the 2 things happen: 1 my power finally arrives or 2 find a way to live till 25 years. And the best chance to survive until these two things happen is by entering the competition. Once I enter the competition field, then by using my influence as a participant I can maybe make the emperor cough up the best healers in the empire to keep me alive.
Although I am not still sure if the condition of soulless still apply to me as I might be an anomaly, I won't take chances as I am still not sure how the rules and laws of this world might work. Even though it is God's fault for the situation I am in, I still have to keep up with his conditions, otherwise, I will have to face the consequence of losing my right as heavens citizen.
The butler sighed for and was silently staring at me for a few seconds before replying "Okay I can sign you up for entering the competition, and I will send you a notice tomorrow of your willingness to enter the competition. But you know the rules of the competition. To enter you have to either get a title or do something that receives a great recognition from the people." After saying this he left. After yesterday's fiasco, I spent the whole day planning on what to do, and after that I sent someone to get Butler Smith, to inform of my decision to enter the competition.

So now I have to either make the emperor get me a title, or get the nobles to support me and use them to make the emperor to let me into the competition. But the problem is who would support a dying person to enter a competition. For all, they know I could just disappear one day and incur them a massive loss for supporting me.
This means I have to make an achievement so great that it gets to the corner of every ear in the empire. But what can I do to get the attention of every single person, quickly?
Military? No, the emperor will do anything to sabotage all missions I undertake to stop me from creating any achievement.
Education? A route I can take is completing the compulsory course from the age of 15 to 20. However, due to the unpredictable condition of my body, I don't want to gamble with my time.
That leaves with a choice I don't like to make. I really do hope that I complete 25 years of life sentence so I can correct the mistakes that I committed using my soul power. Otherwise, I will have all these sins put on my shoulder, for my judgement if I fail.
There has been a life form that has always evolved with all humans. No matter if the humans are at the peak of the highest technological era, or to the peak of the highest magical era or civilisation who has reached the peak of both areas of science and magic, no living being could ever escape this life form. As this life is capable of evolving with both magic and getting past the defence of science.
If the question has been asked what has always been the natural enemy of humans then it will be Virus. Humans have developed or encountered virus in the void of space, or in the densest area of mana where no being can enter, or in both places. And I have seen the results of what these biological natural weapons are capable of, even wiping out a whole civilisation or race, is the least they have done.

Although this world neither follows the rules of science nor the rules of mana, I have to figure out and create a virus that can attack spread themselves, so quickly that it will be hard to contain the virus, and get the manpower to heal the people. I could have created a virus that would have been immune to healing from both awards and magi, but to do that I need to understand how those two particles work, which I don't currently know. The knowledge of this world about those two particles is partially wrong, so I don't want to create a virus that I end up having no control over.
So to do that I have to create or choose a virus from my memory that spreads itself extremely fast, and cause an attack to the body that causes them to be incapable of moving. Hmm, which ones should I use?
How about Rioxin D? Rioxin D, it is a pretty weak virus that cropped up around 2150 of Earth. All it did was invade the hosts' red blood cells. Then when the red blood cells duplicate itself at the end of its lifespan, the virus to duplicate itself using the blood cells. Then using the invaded blood cells, the virus absorbs the glucose travelling in the bloodstream, this causes severe fatigue to the body, as the body doesn't receive enough energy, and sometimes have even caused severe organ failures and cardiac arrest.
But the attack doesn't end there, when a blood cell invaded by a virus reached its end of life, it will duplicate like all cells, but during this duplication the virus in the cell causes a chemical reaction with the blood cell to release a specific toxin. This toxin remains in the body and causes the release of white blood cells to attack the toxin. This causes white blood cells to be busy from defending other invading diseases and infection. Which then end up causing the host of the virus severe illness and other diseases on top of extreme fatigue.
However, the reason why this virus wasn't treated as much of nuisance was its rate of affecting the target was pretty slow, during the time the virus took to affect the target and cause these specific reactions, specific antiviral drugs were developed to attack these viruses. Another reason was that the technology of Earth was advance so much at that time that these types of virus were seen more like an annoying fly than of a threat.
However, before doing any of this I need to gather lots information, like the ratio of award/ magi healers in each area of kingdom compared to the normal citizens, along with where the most and least impact would be in the kingdom once these viruses took effect. After that, I have to look for equipment to make both the virus and its cure. I have to make sure that making of the antiviral drug has to be extremely inexpensive and be available to the whole empire.
Then once the virus has been spread and start to affect the kingdom to the point where riot would start, I can come to the stage developing a cure.

Disclaimer: This is not an instruction manual. If you want to be a horrible human being, go figure it out yourself. Autopsy: Writing this story gave me some degree of insight into how much I've managed to fuck up my own personality by suppressing basic needs. Now I hate myself even more. It started as a story where the MC was supposed to be a blend of the NZ-land shooter and other cancerous personalities. That way I wouldn't feel bad about torturing him. Instead I ended up witnessing all the worst aspects of my own personality, or lack thereof. I'm a horrid person, I can't even bring myself to do what's the only right thing at this point.
