《The Legacy of Gilgamesh》Chapter 4 The Cradle
Advertisement
On the back side of Rico's villa, there is a path that leads to the rarely explored forest. Mt. Conquest, a desolate peak in the upper right corner, resembles a Roman nose. Rico decided to run some tests to obtain the necessary experience before embarking on his journey.
He changed into his running gear and exited his house through the back door into the dense bush. After a short distance, he came across a little wooden structure that acted as both a rain shelter and a resting place. He took a quick break before continuing on his way up the slope.
Rico fixed his gaze on a massive stone slab in front of him, and suddenly it vanished with a thought. It didn't surprise him at all, he grinned as he saw the identical stone slab resting gently on the ground on a little plot of land. Knowing that outside objects could be transferred to the disc world without issue, Rico exhaled deeply.
Rico calls the location the "Cradle" since it is where he will explore and practice until he can create a true world. It is a kilometre-long stretch of flat land. The round blazing orb in the sky is the sun; overall, it appeared to be a little flat earth floating in space. To support life, he built a 3 km-long atmosphere.
The Cradle is encircled by a white ash-grey atmosphere that serves as a barrier to protect the Earth from chaos while also preventing its radiation from affecting living creatures. The World contains dirt, stones, and water, and there are no plants, proving that there is no life there. Using his authority, he can observe anything within his universe as long as he wishes.
The stone from the Cradle returned to the outside world with a thought. He had no aspirations before. It should be mentioned that he lacked any interests or goals to fuel his ambitions. But now that he has the disc world, he has specific goals, one of which is to build a vivid world that only exists in myths and legends.

The Cradle is just missing one wide range of biological chains. The biological link will supplement the myriad laws he put in the Cradle. After a life is extinguished, the Cradle will take the energy of the dead and use it to grow the world, boost its vitality, and give birth to a variety of materials.
The idea was motivated in part by the knowledge he had gained through the visions, knowledge that Enoch had instilled in him, and articles he had read on the internet. Although it was the simplest planet he had ever heard to construct, it was also the most basic. The Book of Enoch, which he wrote with the power of Origin, contains all that is incomprehensible to him that the white orbs had implanted inside his head. He had tried to read much of the book during the previous weeks, but he still doesn't understand 1% of it.
Rico cocked his head and scanned the area, seeing the profusion of weeds, shrubs, and other plants. This should be alright. The Life of the Cradle will start among the weeds and insects of the ground.
Sadly, his physical condition was not excellent. His long, narrow arms could hardly remove a few weeds and plants. It would destroy the plant and leave behind its deep roots if he just transports them away.
Shua!! Shua!! Shua!! Shua!! He pulled the weeds out and took a moment to rest.
After utilizing his authority to plant the weeds, a group of them soon appeared in the cradle next to a tiny running river. Then, as he turned to look at the ground a few meters away, a boulder, the soil, and a variety of insects and microorganisms in the soil all vanished in the air and entered the Cradle.
While looking at the Cradle, Rico could see the weedy shrubs he had recently planted. These weeds have now grown into a patch of grass and tall shrubs with three to four-meter-long clumps. Why is this so, is it because the Cradle time flow is vastly different? Because of the size of the world, Rico could easily change time to his liking. In a tiny world, time moves at hundreds of thousands of times the speed of light. At least two years have gone in these few minutes.

Rico observed that the plant in front of him was completely encrusted with ants. He was astounded by how shiny and metallic the ants' carapaces seemed. All of this demonstrates that Earth's organisms have the power to survive. They appear to have mutated in addition to surviving.
Looking about, he spotted some mosquitos buzzing around a neighbouring pond. "I should investigate this small biological chain," Rico pondered deeply, let's look at what ants eat. What kind of food do mosquitos consume? Ants appear to be crustaceans that consume anything. These mosquitos are predators that feed on blood. Is it capable of absorbing ant blood? But how can a mosquito devour an ant with a two-centimetre-long carapace?
"Truly fascinating." Rico beams a nasty grin.

Silhouette
WARNING: THIS STORY HAS A SLOW START. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. We all grew up hearing stories about heroes and villains, but what would we do if we were to be part of one? One night, a bioweapon escaped from its laboratory in Zalcien, only to die in a dark alley. One night, a young man lent a helping hand, only to die alone in the dark. One night, a deity of death saw two lost souls and offered one a second chance in the other's body. Now a strange creature made of darkness, James has to deal with his new form in a strange new world where superpowers, heroes and villains are commonplace, far away from his home. Watch as he learns how to use his powers, as he meets allies and enemies and how, when facing the paths of heroism and villainy, he chooses a third way somewhere in between. Follow the story of James, a lost Earthling soul, as he becomes Silhouette, the mysterious power in the shadows. Greetings fellow humans. This is my first story on Royal Road and my first long-term project written in English, so I do hope you will have some mercy in your heart when reading. So, as you may have understood, this is a story with super-heroes - which is quite ironic for my first story considering all of the other ones planned are fantasy - and as such will take place in a modern-like setting. Despite dark themes and gory scenes making their way into the story, it is still a super-hero world with the logic that matches, so expect characters to survive nuclear explosions without a scratch and yet to get defeated by a rubber ducky - as well as similar dark humor, thus the comedy part.
