My Evil System

Chapter 39 Race Against My Other Self!

?[Please name your territory]

<Think carefully, Host. You can never unnamed your territory once you named it>

Hmm . . . I typed in . . .

HAVEN

My very own respite in this turmoil world.

Sounds about right.

*Umu

I didn't know how long I would be stuck in this world, so it was better to build my home than to bend my knees on some higher power and be their dog in exchange for shelter and food.

I pressed enter, and a round bronze badge appeared before me.

? B R O N Z E B A D G E ?

Name: Cross Strife

Age: 24

Territory: HAVEN, Rustin Kingdom

? E N D ?

? H A V E N ?

? Previously known as Euclid Village until the God Little Piggy destroyed it as an act of revenge

? A plot of land within the southernmost part of the Holy Kingdom, Rustin. It is surrounded by a Mountain range and Forest in the East and South, while the endless sea occupies its western side. The only entrance and exit are from the North.

? currently owned and managed by Cross Strife.

? Area = 50 km sq.

? Population = 1

? Quest = 0

? Facilities = x2 huts

? Town Hall Level = 1

? E N D ?

There was a new Menu on my [Home Screen] called [Haven], and I checked its content.

Basically, I could see the whole map of my territory, my location, and my facilities. But currently, I only have a portion of the wall erected as well as the two huts.

It was like I was playing a simulation game.

I closed the screen and a notification popped on my face.

How do you scale the size of this thing?

[WARNING! Your inventory is full. Please select items to discard!]

Huh?

I checked my inventor and found that I could only bring x999 items, which was non-accumulative.

My inventory was so full of resources that I wasn't willing to discard them since Daedalus would need them.

Wait . . .

Something clicked in my head.

"Daedalus, can you build me a storage for the materials without a blueprint?" I asked the Golem.

Daedalus nodded. "Yes, I can if it's just a simple shed for the materials. I was actually going to build one and asked your permission for it since we needed the storage for the upcoming influx of materials."

My eyes shone. "Excellent. Can you build it now? Even a crappy one would do."

Daedalus's face turned dark. "I will, and it wouldn't be crappy even after I'm done with it in ten minutes."

I ignored the scoff in his voice. "That's even more perfect."

Daedalus didn't say anything more and located an area where to build the storage that wouldn't hinder the other facilities.

True to his words, a newly constructed storage appeared on my territory after less than ten minutes. It was nothing fancy, just a 36 sq. meter [Material Storage LV.1] made of stone blocks with a height of a two-story hose.

? M A T E R I A L

S T O R A G E L V.1 ?

? a simple storage to hold building materials.

? Hit Points = 2 000

? Capacity = 10 000 materials

? E N D ?

Hit points?

<It's the amount of damage it could take before it got destroyed>

. . . I see . . .

The fantasy gaming aspect of this world was starting to sink into my brain.

[CONGRATULATIONS for successfully building a MATERIAL STORAGE LV.1!

REWARDS:

? Stone Blocks x60

? Lumber x60 ]

[Do you want to transfer all your Building Materials into the MATERIAL STORAGE?]

[YES]

[NO]

I pressed [YES], and my inventory was back to being empty.

Daedalus's eyes shone in delight. "This is great, my Lord. With this many resources, we can speed up the building of your fence and house."

"Don't rejoice just yet. All would be for naught if we didn't build that dam first."

< Breakwater>

Daedalus cleared his throat. "Of course."

"Getting back to the topic." I looked over at Athena. "I'll be going now and return as fast as I can after I collect those tokens. I leave everything in your hands by then."

Since I had already established my territory, Athena and the others were already tied in this place, which meant I couldn't bring them with me on this journey of Tokens stealing.

Athena merely blinked and nodded her head. "Understood."

"And Daedalus," I said before I walked away. "Build Ulysses's lab first after you're done with the fence. And after that, I want you to work with that Breakwater as soon as possible."

Since I would be traveling, I didn't need the house and farm, so it was better to build the other facilities first.

"Understood."

With that, I took one final glance at my territory and the summoned tokens before I went North.

I have nothing with me, so I have nothing to pack. It would speed up things anyway. I'll sleep in the trees and eat beast meat in the meantime or rest in some villages along the way until I reach my destination.

I could only hope I would be in Roselake before my other self could take over which I doubted since I have this weird feeling that the town wasn't just an hour ran.

Stretching my muscles, I assumed my running stance.

<Are you just going to run aimlessly, Host?>

If you have a carriage, that would also work in my favor. But if not, then yes, I would run and ask for directions as soon as I spot someone.

<Sounds like a plan to me>

You really don't know where this Roselake Town is?

<If the System knew, then Host would be informed right about now>

<The System calculated the rewards and the shortest time frame Host could finish the quest before giving the quest>

So that meant that the nearest town in my territory with numerous Tokens was Roselake?

<That's correct>

Kicking dust in my wake, I ran forward and followed the dirt path going north out of my territory.

Since I didn't have to worry about my stamina, I ran nonstop and reached the edge of my land in a couple of hours.

I also scanned the new areas I was in with my [Evil Eyes], so the new area became accessible on my map.

I noticed that if I didn't explore an area first, the map remained darkened like it didn't want me to see beyond a ten-meter radius — such an obnoxious map to have.

But if I scanned the area with my [Evil Eyes], the map illuminated the areas around a 1km radius with me at the center.

I didn't want to stop running since my other self would take control just a few hours from now. And by that time, I wanted to reach Roselake, so he didn't have a choice but to go along with my plans.

Hopefully . . .

<It would be a miracle if he did~>

He didn't have a choice. I snapped.

I gritted my teeth and bit my thumb while deluding myself that he would do it.

He would abandon his useless morality and emotions and kill other players in the name of survival.
