...is man's greatest enemy.
You can never know when you'll lose the motivation to work, projects to work on, or when you'll suddenly find things to play around with.
In my case, it's the second one.
Everyone took over, and I'm left with nothing to work with.
I couldn't bring myself to ask for something to do.
That's like a boss asking an employee what needs to be done.
I'm currently floating in space, in my original, enormous size.
I made a checklist in the meantime, to see if I can think of things to do.

Hm... That's five that's already done... What else?
What about Religion?
Religion is something that can connect a lot of people. Back in my world, people of different nationalities can be connected by following a god. This is good, this is a good start.
I'd like to make a religion for the six of them, maybe eight, Including the Angel and Devil Gods.
Something that can unite the races together. I'll also make it so Devils aren't discriminated against.
In that case, I'd make a religion for the opposing side... What to do...
What about me? I think I can make a good villain. That's a start.
And so...
Since I'm gonna be a villain... I'd need a base to work on. Wait... for three planets? How'd that work?
I could make Four into a main base, merge it with the abandoned planets, Isolate a part of Four to be the villain me's base, and the rest would be the base for all of us. That can work. Since we're going for an evil me, a good base needs to be threatening. A Castle? maybe like a moving room, puzzle-type dungeon. That's an idea I can work with.
The main base is now planned, now I need is Identities, Like Ainz Ooal Gown. With Momonga the Knight. I need an identity or two that I can use to traverse the world. Then to roam with a different identity, I'll need one that has a lot of reasons to, What about a Merchant? Or A wandering PHilosopher telling stories and whatnot? Hmm...
The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.
"[Create: Coin.]" A coin appears on my palm, it looks like the American penny. I toss it upward... and it kept on floating, flying straight to nothing. That's disappointing... If I can't pick just one, why not both? A Wandering trader who likes to tell stories? That's a genius idea, me.
What about the merch?
I'll think about that later.
Okay, so I have Villain, Wandering Storytelling Merchant... What else? Oh! I remembered something great. I loved that one novel where they manage dungeons, and they made an inn at the entrance of the dungeon, and they took care of adventurers that plan to go in, and then they kill or they siphon the living heck out of them in the dungeon. Sometimes some adventures are rewarded with overpowered items so it calls for more adventurers. So, a mysterious innkeeper seems to save people from the villain's lair. Why like that? Just because. Oh, maybe not just an innkeeper, why not a teacher? A teacher that started an inn, seems to save people who try to challenge the villain. I can give it also a very sad backstory. I know. I can steal from other games or stories, and no one will find out about it.
So that's three. I should be satisfied with just three, any more and I'm spreading myself too thin...
Now, I'll need a base for the roaming merchant, an inn for the protectee, and a house for all of us. I was thinking of a building similar to Howl's Moving Castle, but not the moving part. It's a large connection of stores, that's connected into one place, the same goes with the Inn. So that there are multiple stations inside the three planets, and then they lead to the main store and Inn in Four. Damn, I need to name the planets now. Less confusion too. I'm too bored just to think of a new name. I'd rather do something big. Instead of making it on the fourth planet, the main base, and the sub-bases, I'll just do it in a different dimension. I think, and believe I can do that. What's the worse that could Happen?

I fly to the first abandoned planet, the fully green planet, Endless Plains. The name is simple and it stuck with me. I'm back at the round table. There's a newly made tea in a teacup. There's a teacup for me too. Who made it? I'll taste it later.
Okay. Pocket dimension. Let's go. How do I do that? I mean, Nameless taught me portals are making a hole connecting one place to another, nothing about pocket dimensions.
"[Let there be a new world.]" Just like when I made my children, black smoke comes out of my body, as it forms a portal in front of me, swirling around. Looking at it, something sparked inside me. For some reason, I knew how to use this portal. I grabbed the portal by its hard, solid sides, and closed my eyes.
A small, malleable pocket dimension, filled with mana and Aura, A single sun, three moons, a single planet... Let's take a look at the planet. Let's just copy the Pangaea, I may not know the finer details of the Pangaea, but I know the basic shape. Eurasia would be cold and filled with snow, Africa would be a barren desert, and India, Antarctica, and Australia would be lush greens and nice beaches. While America's side will be filled with a forest of many kinds.
I'll be hiding the Inn in the south, the store building hidden in the forest, and the big bad castle in Africa. Eurasia will be a large shed for storing items and stuff I make, buy or potentially sell. Especially food, it's basically a giant fridge.
I open my eyes and walk into the portal.
