As time flew by, Carter watched the rapid progression of life on his planet. The small creatures from Treken evolved, adapting to their new environment. In addition to the native Vorasis and Trekan species, Carter introduced five new races: the Nytherix, Ozilath, Fexdrin, Qorveth, and Xyldra. He carefully selected these races based on their potential to thrive on his planet, ensuring balance without overpopulation that could stifle the planet’s growth.
After 100,000 years (equal to 100 million years on Carter), the first of these new species, the Nytherix, emerged. These elf-like beings with their striking blue skin and tall, slender bodies resemble humans, though with their uniquely graceful figures and only four limbs. Their journey toward evolution had officially begun.
After another 50,000 years, the Vorasis race emerged. Though they appeared less advanced compared to their former selves on Treken, their four arms, six eyes, and broad, muscular bodies made them stand out. They were primitive, much like Earth's apes, and thrived in a rocky and desert-like region of the planet. In contrast, the Nytherix, who had been evolving steadily, were flourishing in a vast, alien, luminous forest, becoming the dominant species in their area.
Another 100,000 years flew by, and three more races had begun their evolution. The native Trekan race, with their thick red skin, spiky foreheads, and pitch-black eyes, thrived in the deserts. They were shorter than the others, averaging about 5'3", and were the only race to dominate an entire continent on their own.
Next were the Fexdrin, resembling Earth's foxes in a werewolf-like form. They thrived in cold, icy regions, their thick fur and sharp claws making them perfect hunters in the frigid environment.
Finally, there were the Qorveth, the subterranean race. Composed entirely of females, the Qorveth reproduced through parthenogenesis, allowing them to self-replicate without a mate. Their bright blue skin shone in the dark caves they inhabited, and their humanoid forms were sleek and elongated, with long limbs and large, glowing eyes adapted to their underground world. Despite their graceful appearance, they possessed immense strength and the ability to manipulate the earth around them, making them a formidable race beneath the planet’s surface.
Another 100 million years passed on Carter's planet, and the last two semi-intelligent races were born—the Ozilath and the Xyldra. By this time, the other races had already made significant advances in society, with the Nytherix leading the way, having already established a country. Although the Ozilath and Xyldra were the last races to emerge, they were the only ones that did not require further evolution to reach their current form.

The Ozilath were ogre-like creatures, known for their violent tendencies and immense strength. They lived in caves atop mountains, their society structured around their raw physical power. Meanwhile, the Xyldra, salamander-like creatures, dominated the seas. Their unique ability to drink large amounts of water and expel it in powerful blasts made them formidable hunters and defenders of their aquatic realm.
After another 100,000 years, Carter decided it was time to stop the time skips. He had watched the planet evolve for long enough, and now it was time for the races to continue their development naturally.
As Carter slowed the accelerated time on his planet, it felt like a weight had been lifted off him. He was no longer restricted to simply watching; he could move and act once again. A thought crossed his mind—if he had the ability to create life, why not control it?

The host should consider establishing religion on all created planets. Religion not only strengthens the bond between the host and their creations but also generates a continuous flow of celestial energy.
Carter raised an eyebrow. “So, what? Should I just broadcast my voice across the planet and tell them to submit and pray to me?”
[SYSTEM] Such a direct approach may cause hostility among the races. Even if they do submit, their prayers or loyalty will not be genuine. While the host cannot create memories, the host can extract them and implant them into a new body. The individual most suited to spreading the host's word is a Trekan named Ralak.
“But will he even listen to me? I pretty much destroyed his planet. If I tell him to make others, especially his own race, worship me, what makes you so sure he’ll do it?”
[SYSTEM] The host freed his people from a life of evil subservience. Though they will submit to you, all you ask for is worship and devotion. As long as the host can convince him with a few words or by performing something extraordinary, he will submit.
Carter grinned. “So, I just need to wow him. Easy enough.”
He focused on forming an area above his planet—a grand, ethereal palace suspended in space. The structure shimmered with white marble pillars that stretched impossibly high, with golden veins running through the stone. Huge, glowing stained glass windows depicted celestial scenes of life and creation. At the heart of the palace, a massive golden throne sat on an elevated platform, surrounded by hovering orbs of light. The whole area had a soft glow, giving it an otherworldly, divine aura.
Satisfied with his work, Carter created a new body to resemble a god. He chose a human-like form, blending multiple alien genes for a majestic and intimidating presence. The body was cloaked in a pure white robe that flowed like liquid silk. The face was a void of blackness, hidden within the hood, creating an aura of mystery. Six large, dark wings resembling those of a canary, but with a darker, more powerful hue, extended from his back, each feather radiating a faint celestial glow.
Moving his consciousness into the body, Carter settled on the massive golden throne. “Alright, system, bring Ralak here.”
