God of Systems: Maker of Heroes and Villains

Multiple carts headed into the forest and the drivers stopped once they saw a large hole in the ground. It was man made, and it looked like a crater.

Two men walked over to the carts while the drivers detached the carts from their animals. One of them grew bigger, reaching four meters in height before he grabbed the cart and emptied the contents into the crater.

This process continued for all the carts that came to this place and by the time they had received most of the plants, they saw a familiar face.

"Boss, there's still two carts that have to get here and once we're done with them, we're good to go." they said and Fabian nodded as he walked closer to the crater where both of them stood.

Once he was close enough, his hand immediately stabbed into the guy who could turn into a giant. Two fingers went into his eye socket and pierced the brain, killing him instantly.

Fabian then turned to look at the other guy, "Is everything ready?"

"Yes boss. Please don't forget about the twenty percent share."

Hearing this, Fabian nodded, "Sure. You'll get twenty and the rest will be given to the others. I've decided to keep nothing for myself."

"Is the person behind you really that... miraculous?" the guy asked as he watched Fabian walk closer to the Crater.

Fabian nodded and answered, "Yes. It's my master and I'm willing to do anything he asks me to since he's the only one who can help me get stronger."Nôv(el)B\\jnn

He then placed his hand on the huge pile of plants and mentally communicated with his system.

'I've got all the plants that I could collect. Please take them.'

A moment later the whole pile vanished, which made Fabian smile as he got a notification that he had finished the quest. The rewards were delivered and now, he had a total of 3 free upgrades which he decided to save for later.

He then turned to look at the other guy who had his mouth slightly open. He smirked and then pointed at the dagger that was on his waist.

Experience tales at empire

"Use that dagger to cut me." he said and walked back out of the crater.

His subordinate hesitated at first but when he saw that Fabian was confident, he nodded and did as he was told. He slashed with half strength as he was still skeptical, but to his surprise, the dagger only left a white scratch mark.

"Full strength." Fabian said and this time, he slashed with all his might.

The dagger went in and pierced the skin but he could feel extreme resistance. He felt like he was trying to cut into hard leather. While he did feel resistance at first, things changed once his dagger went deep enough.

The flesh was the same as a normal human's and he didn't feel too much of a resistance. It was only when he was trying to go through the skin.

He then pulled the dagger out, only to witness the godly level of regeneration that Fabian was known for. This was the sole reason he had given up on his ambitions and brought his small time mercenary group under Fabian.

"See? This is the reason why I don't care about money too much. I can make more in the future and I don't really require too much money. Increasing my personal strength has way more value compared to even a hundred kilos of gold." he said and patted the guy's shoulder, "Fill this crater up and then we'll forge a believable scene."

The guy nodded and took out a small leather pouch before opening it. There was some pepper powder inside and he took a sniff before instantly inhaling.

With extreme force, he sneezed and a bunch of dried up plants, weeds, leaves and bottles shot out of his nostrils.

In just a second, the entire crater was filled and he then took out a small match. He then walked over to a nearby tree and grabbed a molotov before lighting it up.

The match was tossed into the pile of dry leaves, but his eyes also moved to spot multiple open bottles that were currently spilling alcohol into the dry pile.

Multiple matches were tossed into the placed were alcohol was at and then, even the molotov was tossed in.

The pile quickly caught fire and once he was done, he turned to look at Fabian, "Boss, I'm done."

Fabian nodded and ran over to him before punching him right in the face, knocking him out cold. He then took out a small vial of liquid and forced it down his throat.

He left him there and rushed back to the city to see how the situation was going on.

There were still two carts that would reach the crater in the next hour or two. This was because the location from where these carts were coming from, were very far. The contents in these carts were the ones he planned to give to the prince, but he didn't care whether the church found the group or not.

If the two carts were caught, then so be it. It was technically a commission from the prince so he could always pin the blame. He had an official commission letter from the prince while he also managed to get a hold of the letter that he had sent to the prince, which was now just some scattered ashes.

He wanted to spread rumors that the prince had hired him early on, but since it could heavily impact the operation, he decided to not go with the rumors plan.

Now the only thing he had to do was to go into hiding, which was exactly what he did once he made sure that the situation in the capital was going according to his expectations.

Multiple horses were seized as they helped in faster transportation of the carts for a short distance before the animals were switched. The investment that went into this operation was huge, but Fabian didn't care too much about it as it helped him get two free upgrades.

And that was all that mattered to him.
