Chapter 261: Fantasy Creation is just that OP
— — — — — —
"Alright! Let's get going! First, let's check out the city where you live!"
Renzo said casually as he floated into the air using telekinesis, calling out to Saitama.
"Sure thing!"
Saitama nodded, then looked up at Renzo, who was flying overhead, with envy all over his face. "Man, I wish I could fly! Still, I'm really fast, so try to keep up!"
As he spoke, he spread his legs slightly and leaned forward.
BOOM!!
The ground beneath his feet crumbled in a ten-meter radius as he shot into the sky like a blazing comet, streaking westward.
Renzo grinned and casually accelerated, breaking the sound barrier in an instant as a series of sonic booms trailed behind him. He quickly caught up to Saitama, and the two zoomed through the skies together.
"Flying is seriously awesome! Think you could teach me how to do that?"
Saitama gazed at Renzo with puppy-dog eyes, clearly jealous.
Every now and then, Saitama had to land on rooftops to keep up his momentum, kicking off again with bursts of speed.
"Sure, why not?" Renzo replied without a second thought.
Saitama was the kind of guy who remembered kindness and paid it back tenfold. Teaching him to fly wasn't a big deal. Besides, Renzo had plenty of research that would need Saitama's help later on anyway.
And let's be real—a flying Saitama? That's gotta be fun.
"Wait, really? Isn't it natural?"
Saitama was stunned that Renzo agreed so easily. This was flight, after all! That had to be a rare and valuable ability, right? And yet, Renzo could teach it to others… and he was just giving it to him?
This guy… is way too nice!
Tears welled up in Saitama's eyes. "You're… you're my best friend!!"
Renzo just laughed.
About an hour after the two had left B-City, the Hero Association finally arrived at the scene in a flurry of urgency.
Most teams jumped straight into rescue efforts, while a smaller squad had been dispatched with a different goal: track down Renzo and invite him to join the Hero Association.
"Wait… where is he?"
When they arrived, Renzo was long gone, leaving the team completely dumbfounded. They quickly contacted HQ to figure out where he went.
Once they got word that Renzo and a bald man (clearly Saitama) had flown toward City Z, they scrambled into helicopters to give chase.
"We're here! This is the place!"
A few minutes later, Renzo and Saitama touched down on a street corner.
Saitama pointed at a second-floor apartment in a rundown mobile complex. "That's my home!"
"The whole area's basically abandoned," he added. "You can pick wherever you like, Renzo. Though if you ask me, it'd be great if you stayed close—easier to hang out and all."
Honestly, Saitama was hoping Renzo would move in next door—or even just crash at his place.
"Alright, then I'll take that building across the street." Renzo pointed at an old structure directly facing Saitama's apartment. "These buildings are okay to demolish, right? No ownership issues?"
"Nah, this whole area's been deserted for a while. Probably 'cause monsters pop up around here all the time—super unsafe.
Not that it matters to us, obviously."
Saitama shrugged, then gave Renzo a puzzled look. "Wait, why're you asking? Are you seriously thinking of tearing it down and building something from scratch? Isn't that a bit much?"
"That would take forever. And good luck finding a construction crew that'll even take the job in this area."
Renzo smirked. "Don't worry about it. Did you forget what I can do?"
"Just sit back and enjoy the show."
With that, he crouched down and pressed his hands to the ground.
"Earth Style: Moving Earth Core!!"
"Earth Style: Stone Control!"
In an instant, the entire building—along with everything within a 1,500-square-meter area—sank straight into the earth.
The ground smoothed out and hardened like polished stone, becoming a perfect foundation.
Then, both underground and aboveground—starting from 150 meters below and rising upward—things began to change rapidly.
Stone pillars rose from the earth. Walls formed seamlessly. Rebar-like structures emerged, shaped from the very rock and integrated tightly into the framework.
"Fantasy Creation~"
In just a few minutes, a sprawling luxury estate took shape right before Saitama's stunned eyes. It even included a 30-floor underground laboratory complex.
Towering walls sprang up around the perimeter, complete with iron fences and magic runes carved subtly into the structure.
Once triggered—either manually or automatically—those runes would activate a protective barrier to defend the entire estate.
Including everything underground.
"Hmm... missing a bit of greenery, though."
Renzo stood up, still deep in thought, rubbing his chin.
Meanwhile, Saitama was frozen stiff with a dazed expression, as if trying to process what he'd just witnessed.
Renzo lightly tapped the ground with his foot using wood style—and just like that, a soft green glow rippled outward from where he stood.
Under Saitama's lifeless gaze, trees began sprouting up along the paths of the estate as if they'd been planted years ago. The open patches of land were instantly covered in thick, vibrant grass.
He even created some underground water reserves to feed a beautiful artificial fountain in the courtyard, which started bubbling with fresh, flowing water.
"All done! Good enough to live in now, I guess," Renzo said casually, dusting off his hands and placing them on his hips like a proud craftsman.
"Good enough!? Are you kidding me? I'd trade places with you in a heartbeat!" Saitama grumbled, clearly envious as he stared at the luxurious estate that had just materialized before his eyes.
Renzo chuckled. "Not bad, huh? C'mon, let's go check out the inside. Gotta celebrate my move-in somehow, and since you're my first guest, I'm treating you right."
He slung an arm around Saitama's shoulder and started walking toward the main gate with him.
As they approached, the iron gates opened on their own. A holographic projection of a graceful woman appeared in midair and bowed slightly toward Renzo.
"Welcome home, Master," she said in a clear, calm voice.
Yep—Renzo had gone the extra mile and even built a fully functional AI.
He didn't need to write lines of code one by one, either. He just used his Fantasy Creation cheat to conjure a quantum computer, programmed and installed it on the 15th underground level of the estate, and voilà—the AI was ready to go.
Of course, this version of Red Queen was just a blank slate for now. He'd still need to gradually shape her personality and systems over time.
"Red Queen, give Saitama secondary access privileges. Let him come and go from the estate as he pleases," Renzo instructed.
"Yes, Master. Command acknowledged. Saitama, you now have guest-level clearance. Welcome!" Red Queen said with a polite smile and a bow toward Saitama.
"Uh…" Saitama stared at the projection in stunned silence. "Is this what they call… artificial intelligence? And holographic tech…?"
His entire understanding of reality had already been flipped upside down several times today, and now it was being shattered again.
Honestly, after watching Renzo clap his hands and build a luxury estate out of nowhere, a talking AI projection barely even ranked as surprising anymore.
"Yep," Renzo nodded with a grin. "She's an AI that I created myself. The holographic system is legit too."
"Anyway, let's go take a tour. Feel free to come hang out here anytime. You can even live here if you want—totally fine."
He gave Saitama a friendly nudge forward as they headed inside.
"Uh, hold up!" Saitama suddenly perked up, looking a little embarrassed. "If you've got AI and holograms and all that tech… do you have anything like a virtual gaming system?"
He rubbed his hands together expectantly, eyes sparkling.
After all, Saitama was a hardcore gamer—even if he sucked at it.
Back in the original timeline, he lost horribly to King every single time. Not once did he win.
But did that stop him from playing? Absolutely not. The man was addicted.
Renzo raised a brow. "Oh, yeah. I've got a dedicated gaming room. You can check it out later. It's fully loaded with all kinds of games—console, PC, even massive online ones. But I just built the place, so… no other online players yet."
"But first," Renzo stretched and glanced at the sky, "let's eat. I haven't had lunch yet."
With that, he led Saitama into the main villa of the estate.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa—are you serious!?" Saitama blurted out the moment they stepped inside. "You're telling me this isn't just a hollow shell? There's working electricity, appliances, lights, decorations—everything already in place!?"
"This isn't magic… this is god-level!"
Even though his soul was already numb from repeated shock, Saitama still couldn't help but vent his disbelief.
This kind of cheat skill—he'd sign up in a second if someone offered to teach him.
That said, he didn't actually ask Renzo to teach him this time.
It was obvious this wasn't just one ability. Back when Renzo built the estate, he used multiple powers—like Earth control or something like that.
Clearly, it was a personal specialty. One of his signature skills.
Besides, Renzo had already said he was welcome to visit—or even live here. Why go through all that hassle to learn it himself?
