I peered into space as I attempted to formulate my next train of thought. I eventually decided to ask about my choices involving the creation of my world. "So Helios, what do you think about my choices of magic, and monsters?"
He stared at me blankly for a moment before he spoke again. "You did well regarding the monsters. You implemented basic ones for your races, to level and grow with which is good. The orc pack was supper iffy since they repopulate quickly. But it is still really good practice for your races, especially since they need to learn how to defend themselves against a diverse amount of threats."
I felt relieved at that, at least he semi-approved of my choice regarding the monsters.
"Now about your magic, the basic spell casting was a good choice. It gives your populace a chance to experiment to see what the like and don't like, however, what I didn't really approve of is the dimensional magic. That is a later purchase, why did you get it now?" He asked me quizzically and tilted his head.
I had to resist the urge to facepalm my self at his reaction? "Why didn't you stop me from making that purchase then?" I sat forward and stared at him annoyed for a moment longer.
"Well. To be honest I didn't feel like it."
My mouth dropped and I stared at him. Really? He didn't feel like it? The nerve of this angel. "What the hell kind of system companion even are you?" I stood up and yelled at him. This angel really was ridiculous.
"Well, look who is talking. You are the one who didn't give me a customized template. I have a mix between a companion who wants to help and the attitude of a noble divine angel. Really its a fight internally most of the time to actually want to help." He glared at me while his voice stayed monotonous. His rich accent faded into something that was flat and each syllable was punctuated with annoyance.
I let out a soft breath and sat back into my chair. I really shouldn't yell at him. It was my fault for being in such a rush at the start. I waved my hand in dismissal and rested it on the armrest of the chair, "I'm sorry for yelling. I'm just annoyed that I put my self in this situation."
Helios stared at me for a moment and shook his head, "Its alright. It's kind of my fault really. I'll work on my attitude a little more and hopefully, we can both overcome our shortcomings." I gave Helios a faint smile and leaned forward to stretch out my hand.
"Yes, hopefully, we can work towards fixing this." He took my hand and we both shook on it. He took his hand back and sat back into his chair, and looked around for a moment.
"What do you say we leave this stuffy control room? We can continue this talk down on Ouradia and we can slide in some combat training as well." He asked me as he stood up and extended his wings and extended his aura outwards in a blinding golden light show.
"Sounds like a plan." I stood up and attempted to stretch my wings out like him, only to fail and have them retract back in.
"Looks like we also get to do some physical training as well. Don't forget to grab your blades. You will need them for this. I'll be waiting for you planetside, just use the interface to find me." With those words, he vanished and left me standing in the observation room to collect my things. I turned my attention to the hallway and thought about going to talk to Aphelia once more. I stared longingly at the entrance to the next set of rooms before I chased that thought out of my head. I don't think I was quite ready to go for any kind of relationship, especially with everything going through my head at the current moment.
I walked over to the table that my weapons sat on and grabbed the row of sheaths and took a second to marvel at the sight. The sheathes were ink black and a faint red light radiated from the blades held within. I pulled one of the blades from its sheathe and marveled at its design. The metal was grey and scarlet red mana pulsed from its core and pulled the floating pieces closer together, and lined the edges of the blade. I ran a finger across the mana and felt my flesh catch on it. I pulled my hand back in surprise that the mana actually held an edge. I would have to research that soon and see why that was.
I grabbed the sheaths and wrapped them around my body, and lined them up on my back and attached the longer sword to my hip and adjusted it slightly. The weight distribution felt off and made me feel slightly off-balance. I shifted slightly and brought up my interface and quickly searched for Helio's location. The screen brought up a three-dimensional view of the planet and quickly zoomed into where Helios was waiting for me. He was floating over the massive chasm I created. His wings were extended out to their max radius and his glowing aura was turned up to the point he looked like a blazing star. I took a deep breath to steady my self and closed my eyes to teleport to his location.
I opened my eyes and felt the wind kick me in the face as Helios and I stood across from each other. He raised his hand in greeting and I waved back and I heard his voice clearly as if he was standing next to me. "Did you ever check your race status page? It is vital that you know your strengths and weakness, especially since the Celestial Nephilim are a new race. " I nodded my head in agreement and searched through my advanced interface to find my species template.

As I read over the species template I heard Helio's voice whisper in my ear, " What did you learn?"
"My species heavily focuses on the use of magic above all else, and have incredibly low birth rates overall," I explained as I read over my screen memorizing the information.
"Correct. Your species was a poor choice, for the class you have. However, it's not a lost cause. Thankfully being an Administrator has its perks, and you can customize your species to bring it up to par. After we get this practice fight out of the way I can judge your skill and what steps we need to take next."
I nodded my head and gulped and pulled the blade out from its sheath on my hip and readied my self. Helios brought his fist up and lightning danced across his eyes and crawled across his body. Radiant golden energy crackled and screamed into the air as he brought his fist up and his wings retracted slightly in size as he took a step towards me as his first settled into a ready position. His gaze pierced through me as he stared at me, sizing me up and prepared to strike. "Begin." His words were thick with concentration and purpose. I took a deep breath and prepared my self for the fight to come.
I feel like ethereal magic will complement his class
Thank you for writing this chapter author great work! ♡
No baby for a while ;(
Well at least he has some possible booty in the form of the planetary goddess (wonder what steps are required for her to ascend to a true god?). Though courtship would take awhile (though considering both MC and her are essentially age less they have time) not to mention that MC has stuff to do in addition to having to settle his own emotions from his human life and the current one. Finally, gestation is two years (time in mom's womb) which is over twice what a human is. Wonder if their standards of adult hood are over double too (around 40-50 years which is less than baby Yoda who still isn't an adult at 50)? As for low birth rates, that just means they need to be prolific sexual lovers when they want to have kids (MC probably more so as Aphelia is a different species that is also stupidly long lived). Or maybe their is fertility magic (though such things would be later and they will have to settle for just trying more).
MC uses physical attributes as he is a blade dancer and everything but it isn't bad to have magical ability too for use in tandem. Though that boils down to practice and more practice.
Also wonder what the race panels for the other races are too? If not shown in story it could be shown in a side chapter too like the Ouradia status page.
On a final note, having dimension magic be introduced early isn't inherently a bad thing as that means the people of Ouradia will have much experience with a type of magic that is considered new and could push the boundaries and study of it. Plus while dangerous it could also yield unexpectedly great results.
@Ediav42 ayee. Idk if Aphelia and Kairos will have kids yet. He will have "Children" later in the series. Ermm Tbh I'm kinda lazy when it comes to race sheets. Not cause I don't eanna make them but I put a lot of thought behind them. I also caught a lot of hell on my main platform for dimensional magic. BUT I have use for it :^ ill give hint... Path of godhood
@Raizia Well in a sense all races on Ouradia are kids to MC (especially Ancient Ones as well as the upcoming Nephilim and the celestial kind). It also wouldn’t be impossible for MC to make a kid with Aphelia and his template or what not. Would probably be quicker doing that although just trying a bunch would probably be more fun.
@Raizia dimensional magic is awesome I'd be upset if you didn't get it or cultivation
@mirasin oh it's going to get better once Kairos gets on to expanding his skill set with it.
