《Unbound Reality.》Creation
Advertisement
Ben looked around him, the ice scattered all over the place and the sound of waves crashing against his ice platform was heard. Ben felt as if he was in a nature documentary about the arctic, all that was missing were some polar bears and snow. There may be a lot of ice but there wasn’t any snow present, everything was just cold, hard and slippery.
The flaming ball in the sky, Ben decided to just call it the Sun so as to not confuse himself, would most likely be able to kick off the weather cycle. It wasn’t a very difficult process, the weather, all there had to be were cold or warm temperatures and evaporated water in the air, and if these two would collide you’d get lightning, so Ben didn’t bother to try and do something about the weather himself as it’d already been set up.
Now, Ben needed to make the moon, or something similar to it for there to be a day-night cycle. Ben didn’t want it to be permanently day, Ben was more of a night person before and that didn’t change, night was when it was quiet, usually. But how would Ben go about creating a moon? Ben did have this mysterious source of information in his head, if he wanted to do something it would just flow through his mind and automatically move his body to do so, but Ben wanted to figure it out himself, he was used to doing everything alone after all. He willed this flow of information to stop as to not have unconscious access to it.
Ben wanted to make sure that the day-night cycle was the same as that of Earth, but as it was currently it was completely different. Instead of the Earth circling around the Sun it was the complete opposite.
Ben’s connection to the Sun was via his body temperature, he had easily found out about that when he froze the ocean. So all he had to do to fix this opposition was to use his body temperature to stop the flaming ball, and so he did.
Now, both the ocean and the Sun were stationary, stopping the Sun was easy but moving the ocean would be difficult. As the ocean was formed from his tears Ben had no idea how to go about this. He thought hard about it, it took Ben a couple of hours, but telling the time was very difficult when the Sun didn’t move and you didn’t have access to a clock.
“Aha” Ben suddenly came out of his thinking daze. He had thought about using winds, or just trying to brute force it but that wouldn’t work. All Ben had to do was add a gravitational pull to the Sun, one just strong enough to force the watery sphere to revolve around it. Ben had done it unconsciously when he created this endless ocean, so it would be easy to do it to the Sun, right?

Ben focused deep in his mind and singled out his body temperature from his senses, he willed that the Sun that was connected to his temperature got a pull. As he was doing so the Sun suddenly became bigger, as if it was pulling the ocean into itself instead of forcing it to revolve around itself.
Ben panicked and quickly forced it to stop pulling the ocean in itself. Ben sighed a sigh of relief, and wiped the imaginary sweat of his forehead. “That was too close.” It truly was. But from mistakes often come positives. The Sun that was previously small was now about the same size as the Sun on Earth, it was because of the difference in position!
Now the day-night cycle would most likely be more or less the same as that of Earth!
Ben was thinking why it reacted the way it did, which was actually surprisingly simple. It was because the Sun itself wasn’t spinning, if the Sun spun then the pull on the endless ocean would be different. Instead of pulling it would force it to revolve around itself. This was easily fixed by doing the same as he did to force a pull, but instead of a pull Ben added spin to it, and after he had added spin to it did he add the gravitational pull.
The ball of water started moving, although it was invisible to the nakes eye even if the relevant speeds and distance were large, it was small compared to the grander scale. The blue sphere should be moving at around 450 meters per second, which is faster than the speed of sound at 343 meters per second but because there is no noise outside of the blue sphere it wasn’t heard.
With now the Sun and the blue sphere moving about Ben was ready to move onto creating the moon. But this time Ben wanted something different, instead of a giant grey rock in the night sky Ben wanted to make it purple. It wasn’t a matter of efficiency, Ben just wanted it to be purple as he thought it would look good. He has his own little world, why can’t he change things up?
Even though Ben wanted to do it all by himself he had no clue where to even start with creating a moon. Maybe he should make land first, and then cut out a piece of the land as the moon just as it was said the moon was created in one of the mangas he had read?
As he had no clue he didn’t suppress the flow of information anymore, information related to everything that had to do with creating the moon flooded in. It was theorized that the moon back on earth was formed by two planets colliding with each other but this wasn’t something that was in the information, it had given multiple methods of doing so but this wasn’t one of them.

The main part of creating the moon was his blood, by creating a wound that would allow blood to freely flow out you could create some form of stone. His blood, when outside of his body would act like lava would, magma inside his body and lava outside.
When he had created land he could either, like he jokingly thought about before, cut out a piece of this formed land and then set it as the moon or he could directly form it in its place. The other remaining methods were a bit too much for Ben so he ignored those, and when he did all the background information that came with those vanished.
Ben quite liked the idea of cutting out a piece to create the moon, it allowed him to have a more personal touch in forming it than it would otherwise. Ben was a bit hesitant in wounding himself as he wasn’t very keen on cutting himself open but he had no other choice, and his excitement mostly held back his most reserved self.
Though he had no way of actually producing something sharp to penetrate his skin he could just force his skin to split open a little bit, so miniscule that it wasn’t visible to the naked eye. As Ben did so a small stream of blood flowed out of the “wound”, the blood that would act like lava didn’t cause any discomfort for Ben and it started dropping on the ice that Ben was standing on.
Ben realised it might be more optimal to stand above water instead of ice so he moved to a spot where he could let his blood freely enter the ocean. Although his blood would melt through the ice, the ice was very thick so it would take some time and Ben wasn’t willing to wait the extra mile.
It took Ben quite some time to reach his destination, and as he hadn’t thought about moving to a more suitable spot before he left a small trail of a scorching hot liquid behind. But when he did and his blood started dripping into the open water something amazing happened. Instead of small amounts of this stone forming it suddenly expanded, with each single drop that fell into the water more of this stone was made…
1 drop was enough for a boulder, 5 were enough for a mountain, 10 would create a country and eventually when 100 drops of Ben's blood fell into the water it had created a continent. This happened right in front of Ben in real time, Ben had missed the forming of the ocean as he had been underwater at that time but this time he was there!
Ben felt giddy, just like how a child would react when he got a new toy he asked for. Ben never truly had a childhood like others, this felt as if he was given the chance to have his very own sandbox, but this sandbox was the size of his own imagination!
The landmass formed a decent distance away from the ice, Ben had thought about it when he was on his way to open water. He wanted that ice to be like the arctic so he didn’t want any land near it. He did know that on earth, below all that snow and ice on the arctic, that there was land but this was his world!
What stunned Ben even more was that when he was feeling excited and all his blood kept falling, only this time it didn’t form anything. This time it directly sank towards the middle of what used to be an endless ocean and formed a giant, scorching hot ball of magma. This resulted in the forming of the seabed because of the water coming into contact with what is now the core of this sphere!
Of course, the layer would be relatively thin but over lots and lots of years it would thicken due magma escaping through cracks and forming new layers of this stone! Naturally this wouldn’t happen in just a few decades or centuries, it would most likely be closer to giga-annums which are more than billions of years old. Why would it take so long? It was because as time went on the layer would thicken and the process would slow down each time it thickened.
Of course the escaping of magma through cracks would ultimately form volcanoes too, which would add more to the realism that Ben wanted to have. Ben wanted realism, not a perfect copy of earth. What that meant was that the aesthetics could look different and their functions would ultimately be the same.
The landmass that had been created was definitely big enough to cut out a piece out of it for the moon. As the moon also had a core, which was iron-rich, Ben would cut out a sphere and then add his blood into it. Though if it would create an iron-rich core was beyond him as the information that he got didn’t provide him that. Why? Ben didn’t know, but he didn’t care, he didn’t want to be omniscient as he would get bored easily.
He also wasn't omnipresent, it was possible to reach such heights in the future, but he wasn’t at this moment, what he was, was omnipotent. Omnipotent comes from Latin, ”omni” meaning Total and “potent” meaning Power, total power.
Because Ben had created everything out of his own body he had power over everything, thus having total power. Ben’s own body was like the hardware and everything “made” out of was the software. Even if Ben wouldn’t end up making it it would still be derived out of something he has made. All the things he had unconsciously made like the four fundamental forces and the atoms that were everywhere as such he had influence over everything…
