The world was slowly forming, creating flashing lights like an Arora across Jason’s eyes. Looking towards the world he started questioning how he was still breathing or talking aloud. It would make sense for him to be dead by now.

“Allen, how am I breathing right now?”

*Your aether is creating a miniature bubble around you, which is why you need a world as soon as you can create one, if you stay in that bubble for too long you will start losing aether to keep you alive*

“You couldn’t have told me that earlier?”

* Sorry for this but, I’m here to help and guide not be your babysitter, if you ask me a question I can respond. But if you don’t, I’m locked out from saying something though I will try to help you as much as I can*

“Okay, I’m going to need a better explanation on that later, how long is the world going to take to form?”

Lights began to glow stronger as the world was gaining in size, beautiful but disorientating he thought while looking at the meteors falling.

*Approximately 100 million years*

With a shocked expression on his face, Jason felt like he was about to have a panic attack “100”.

Regaining his normal expression, a smirk ran across his face “Let me guess, we can speed it up right? Please tell me we can”.

*Yes, but this will be something you have to do, can’t interfere with this other than being a guide*

“How do I do that exactly?”

*Think of the aether you saw fly out of your body a moment ago and think Time Speed up*

With a concentrated gaze towards the forming planet, Jason kept repeating 4 words into his mind. Aether – Time Speed Up. Aether – Time Speed up. Aether – Time Speed up.

Inherent knowledge attacked his brain, an instinctual feeling fell over him as his mind expanded. Lights glimmered over his body as aether began to run rampant inside. Feeling a tug, Jason allowed 50% of his aether to leave his body.

This time was less painful as the instinctive knowledge he had told him he had to channel it through his veins instead of the draw that happened previously. Heat rose as his veins gained a violet hue, leaving his palm was a violet and crimson light as it flew to a space right beside him.

A clock formed, indicating the amount of aether he had used. It read 50,000.

*Good Job, Now think of the time. 50K aether will allow for 1 billion years as this is your first time, later it will cost much, much more. You are looking at the universe's speed, it will allow the entire universe to speed up*

“Will that affect anything other than the planet? And will it affect me?”

*Yes and no, the sun behind you will be fine as it’s a system gift that all newbies get but I expect other planets and other celestial bodies to form. Though they may not form in this solar system, it will be like the big bang your universe had but with more energy as this was created by the admin and not a natural phenomenon*

*I think your old scientists called it dark matter or strange matter but here it’s called aether. It’s all around us, for you it won’t help as you are currently an aether soul construct. Your true soul is in the system plane that the system created 25 billion iterations ago, too many gods killed each other over petty squabbles*

*Now, select the time, I would recommend using the full-time as it will allow for full growth, your races may even have friends if you’re lucky but that’s about 1 in 10 million*

Thinking towards the clock, Jason felt a slider inside of his mind's eye. No, it was more like his soul. Selecting 1 billion, everything stopped for a couple of seconds before darkness enclosed Jason’s soul construct.

*Don’t worry about the darkness, it is there to protect you, part of the newbie package*

“Well, that was eventful” Jason gained a thoughtful expression as he read, then re-read the panel.

*Now that we have a world, we can start terraforming. It has an atmosphere, but only basic animals are currently alive*

Looking towards the formed planet Jason took a deep breath. It was beautiful, life was flourishing, Clouds dotted the sky and the continent looked like a green paradise, it was different, very different from the earth he once knew. The world had no lights visible from space making it look like nothing was alive. Slowly moving towards the planet Jason noticed that there were now two moons orbiting the green beauty that was before him, an asteroid belt had formed around the second moon which seemed a bit too far from the world he created, while the other moon was where he would expect it to be, far enough away to not start causing damage or a pull that would bring it plummeting down.

“Could we create the Moon base first? It doesn’t have an atmosphere yet, right?”

*Well considering the moon doesn’t have even a drop of green, anyway before that I need to tell you now that you have a planet you have around 2 days before I return*

“What? Why?” Jason looked towards the first moon while his eyebrows slowly lowered towards his eyes.

*Unfortunately, I’m only here for two days, currently, my two goals are to guide you through planet/life creation and explain the basic attributes that you will be dealing with as a god, like the new skills you received, Soul perception and reflex. They are required to protect you from entities that can hurt your current soul form, If you think soul perception you will gain a new sight*

Jason felt the pull as soul perception activated, taking a tiny amount of aether to keep active.

“Okay, I have enabled it what now?” As Jason spoke the words the world before him dulled, instead of the green he previously saw he now could only see in black, white, and blue or at least that’s what he currently saw.

*Currently there isn’t any creature with soul attributes as they are currently basic and only have instincts, they will gain a soul once they become sentient*

“All I can see right now is a black outline around the planet and a white blob with hints of blue?”

*The outline shows you it's not currently alive if it was blue, it would mean the planet gained sentience, currently it should only have the beginnings of it. If you ever see Red within your first 10 iterations, I recommend running and getting bac... sorry you don’t have permission for that yet *

Deactivating the skill, Jason’s vision returned showing the previously visible green. “Moon base?”

*Yes fine, moon base*

Looking towards the moon, Jason grinned. He always wanted to explore space but now he could create it. It was within his grasp, a new world, new moon and tons of exploration and creation.
