The Goblin's Leveling System!

Chapter 75: Side Story: There Is No Such Thing As 'Infinite'

"Yes, I have decided some of them."

"What cheat skill do you want?"

"I want the attribute to all elements including time and space."

The God Of the Worldly System looked at me and snapped his fingers which then made my body shone in bright yellow light.

"I have granted that cheat skill. Any other cheat skill?"

It's good that I can now use any elements therefore any magic available as long as I have enough magical energy or mana. Wait, how about I ask for an infinite amount of mana?

"It's impossible."

I was shocked by the God Of the Worldly System's reply since even he said that he couldn't grant me an infinite mana pool.

"Why can't I have an infinite amount of mana?"

"There is no such thing as 'infinite' since it's only a delusion that you mortals had formulated using your insufficient intelligence. There is always an end to everything and we Gods refer to 'infinite' as a number that has an end which we cannot reach. Think of it as having numerous amount of zeros in a certain number but it is a fixed number. Only the 'Supreme Being' had reached the end of 'infinite'."

It seemed that my knowledge was shallow compared to a God. Even a God cannot reach the end of infinity but the Gods had claimed that there was an end of infinite.

What's more, was that the God Of the Worldly System had referred to someone as a 'Supreme Being' and only that being had reached the end of infinity.

"Who is the Supreme Being?"

The God Of the Worldly System was silent after he heard my question but after several seconds, he made up his mind to tell me about the Supreme Being.

"Remember how some of you mortals had wondered who created the universe which then leads you to the theory that an omnipotent being had created the universe which you referred to as a God?"

Well, I did remember about that and the priests from the church kept on preaching that it was the work of God while some stubborn scientists had claimed that it was the cause of the Big Bang.

"I do remember about that. So what about it?"

"Have you also wondered who created the one who created the universe or simply, who created the Gods?"

"Well, yes. But I later forgot about that since it was useless to keep on thinking about something impossible to answer."

"The Supreme Being was the one who created the Gods but he was not the one who created the universe. He created the Gods to relieve his boredom of being alone and to seek entertainment by watching the Gods create planets and universes."

"The Gods had also created various lifeforms including the humans in the planets they had created. The purpose was the same as the purpose of their creator which was to seek entertainment by watching the actions of the lifeforms they had created."

Even though I felt angry and at the same time uneasy that there was a higher being who had watched every action of mine, I still remove such thoughts since it was futile to go against a being that was trillions of times stronger than myself.

"Did the Gods had tried to rebel against the Supreme Being?"

"Yes. The outcome was a one-sided massacre caused by the Supreme Being. The Gods had used every divinity and authority they had to defeat the Supreme Being but none of their attacks even reached him. Their attacks had vanished after it came into contact with the Supreme Being."

So the Supreme Being was overpowered that even the attacks of a God were referred to as a struggle of an ant.

Now I know what my other cheat skill will be!

"I want the cheat skill of-"

"I refuse!"

The God Of Worldly System bluntly refused my request even though I was still not finished on saying what my request was.

"I already knew what you wanted but I refuse. It is because even I cannot grant a skill such as the skill you have thought of. None of the Gods can grant you such skill even if all of the Gods sacrificed their power and life just to grant you the cheat skill that you had thought of."

Looks like the God Of the Worldly System had already known what cheat skill which I wanted to have.

The cheat skill I wanted was a fraction of the power of the Supreme Being. Even a trillionth of the Supreme Being's power would be enough.

"Then can I have an almost infinite amount of mana?"

"I can't. I'm not the God Of Energy so I wouldn't be able to grant you a mana pool that was almost infinite in amount but I can grant you a large mana pool."

"Okay, a large mana pool would be enough."

The God Of Worldly System snapped his finger which then made my body emanate a bright blue light and it disappeared after several seconds.

I guessed that the bright blue light was mana and the God Of Worldly System had granted me some of his mana to enlarge my mana pool.

Now, what cheat skills do I need in another world?

"I shouldn't choose a cheat skill that would be too overpowered or it will take the fun out of defeating my enemies.", I muttered to myself.

"I want to retain my past, human race. Even though I was tortured by them, I still don't feel any hatred against them and it might be due to Axel erasing the memories of my torture."

The God Of the Worldly System snapped his fingers which made my body transform into a human instead of a soul.

"Now your soul is the same shape as a human soul. Therefore, your odds of becoming a human in your next life would be highly possible."

"Thank you!"

I performed a bow towards the God Of the Worldly System to show my gratitude.

The God Of Worldly System and I discussed my cheat skills and I had decided what it would be such as not being affected by diseases or illnesses and the God had granted me all of the cheat skills that I had asked him.

The God Of Worldly System summoned a system screen which showed the heroes from another world including Axel.

The heroes, priests, bishops, and the pope drew a magic circle, threw a bunch of blue-colored stones at the center of the magic circle, and surrounded the magic circle while chanting something.

The magic circle shone brightly in response to their chanting until it grew brighter and brighter.

"It is the time!"

The God Of the Worldly System said as he conjured a portal and threw me into the portal.
