《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.

My Isekai
For those not familiar with the isekai genera, this story is about a man waking up in an unknown world. The story follows his journey and life in this world, which does not only look different on the surface, but the common norms and values of this world are very alien to the modern western mindset. How will this average western person respond to such a world, and how will it change him. For those familiar with isekai, this is a western take on a predominantly Japanese story format. It draws a lot of inspiration from Japanese isekai, but it also tries to tackle a lot of tropes that might be annoying to the western mindset. The story is not written for young boys as the story tries to take a mature take on some typical clichés and assumptions made by both the typical writer and reader of the genera.
