Ding!
[You and your allies have constructed [Living Wood Houses (E+)] x85!]
[You have Completed the Civilization Task: [Build 100 Houses: 100/100]!]
[Congratulations! You received the following Rewards: [1.000 Dungeon Energy] [150 Civilization Renown] [Special Unit Summoning Ticket] x1!]
As Alice spoke, the Civilization Task was also completed. I received some rather normal rewards. Got back some of the Dungeon Energy I used, some renown getting me closer to the Civilization Rank Up, and also a special item. The item was weird not only because of what it could do, but because it had absolutely no rank whatsoever.

[Special Unit Summoning Ticket]
A Special System-made item that only the Civilization System can create through the absorption of Causality and its synthesis into this powerful item.
Draws upon the power of the original System's Roots and summons one of the many souls within the Reincarnation Cycle made by the System's creator.
By spending one thousand units of Divine Power, or an equivalent in Mana of one hundred million mana, it is possible to activate it to completely materialize a living being.
The Summoned Special Unit will be loyal to you no matter what, and their Grade will be random, between the lowest Rare Grade to the highest. Higher chances of lower Grades than Higher Grades.

Woah, this was absolutely weird! Did that God truly designed this Civilization System? It feels like the Quest, Dungeon, and Civilization Systems were all part of Alice. Was he trying to make one System for all things? I can tell why it did go wrong and ended making her feel so much pain.
It was only after all these years of recovering, healing, evolving, and growing that Alice has been able to utilize these systems that God must have shoved into her own core, giving "birth" to them by using large quantities of accumulated EXP and Causality.
"How about you try using that ticket you got? I think this is the only instance where the System can create living beings. It requires a lot of Mana to use them though, but I doubt that's a problem for you."
"You're not wrong. Alright, I guess I better try this out and see what comes out! I don't lose anything trying, right?" I spoke with her through telepathy, and then set my gaze back at Selene. "Looks like before I leave, you'll be having a new member on your ranks." I said, revealing a golden ticket in my hands. "Summon Special Unit."
FLAAASH!
A magic circle surged over the ground, releasing a bright green light. And from within, something emerged, something materialized out of it. I had no idea my system could simply create a living being. The technicalities of it were much more intricate than I ever imagined.
The person that appeared from within the magic circle shone with brilliance, before the light dissipated. It looked like another plant person. Someone slightly smaller than Selene, that resembled a cute goblin girl, with green skin, but with hair made of leaves, long ears, and sharp crimson eyes with vines covering the rest of her petite body.
She came equipped with a pair of black knives and seemed to be a combatant.
Ding!
[You have summoned the Rare+ Grade Special Unit: [Ivy, Huntress of the Poisonous Forest]!]
[Ivy has been added to your Civilization's Special Units Roster.]
"Huh? Where am I? I could swear I was hunting and then a bear ate me up- What the…?" She started gazing at her own body. "Why are there plants all over my body? Wait, I'm a plant?!"
"Wait, do you remember some sort of past life?!" I was shocked. I did read it had some sort of connection with the Reincarnation Cycle, but I didn't think the soul would have its memories intact.
"Huh? Who are you- Ah, you must be my summoner." She suddenly said as if knowing everything already. "T-This is weird but… I died. I died hunting a HUGE bear, around thrice your size."
"I-Is that so?" I wondered, still trying to process what just happened.
"Amazing! My Goddess has summoned a new Hero! Bravo! Everyone claps, let's make a celebration!" Selene clapped, everyone cheered.
"W-Woah… Everyone's so happy to see me?" Wondered Ivy. "So you're a Goddess? What's this place? I never believed in reincarnation or something, but this is clearly life after death!"
"Hmm, well, I'm sorry for dragging you here out of nowhere. It wasn't my intention to drag someone that… Well, the ticket did say something along those lines." I sighed. "But I thought they wouldn't have memories; they would be like… maybe like golems?"
"Am I a golem to you?" Ivy raised an eyebrow. "I'm made of plant stuff now, but I am pretty sure I'm the same girl I've always been! So you're going to tell me what's this place or not? I somehow feel like I should get to work… But what work? Dunno."
"Umm, Alice?" I asked Alice to get some sort of words on her side.
"It seems this is unprecedented…" She said. "I also imagined it would be like a golem or a plant creature, but not a full-fledged person with a soul from another world… This probably means that I am more connected to my creator's Abilities than I imagined."
"So what… do we do now?" I wondered.
"Well you don't need to take care of me or something, just tell me what's going on." Ivy crossed her arms. "I did get some information inside my head, but I am still confused…"
"Alright, okay then."
I explained her what I could, and even offered her the chance to go to the "outside world" or something, I wanted her to be free if possible. To enjoy her second life. However, her response was surprising.
"I see, that's crazy… You're like a goddess then? Alright I'll stay. This is like a fresh start for me! And going to the "outside world"? I'm honestly tired of hardships in life. I want to sit back and be praised like in here… Hehe." She was really into it. "Though, I still feel like I need to do some "duty", so tell me what I should do. I'm here to help after all, you revived me after I died. I feel like I need to repay this debt."
"Oh well, if you really want to…" I shrugged.
