NOVEL WEB 13-My own sun
“With my current gravity control, pulling in stars is gonna be a huge pain in the as—" Carter stopped mid-sentence, suddenly realizing, "I don't even have one anymore… Sigh." He shook his head, knowing what had to be done. “System, upgrade gravity control to level 4 and zone vision to level 5.”
[NOTICE]
25 million C energy has been deducted for upgrades.
“WHAT?! 25 million?!” Carter shouted in disbelief. "That's insane!"
[SYSTEM]
Zone vision and gravity control have been successfully upgraded.
Carter’s frustration quickly faded as his new abilities kicked in. His sight expanded exponentially, now reaching over 80,000 miles into the vast expanse of space. His vision had quadrupled, revealing celestial bodies far beyond his previous limits.
But the real power came with his gravity control. The force he could exert had skyrocketed, allowing him to pull up to 30 stars at once with ease. It no longer felt like a struggle—it was as natural as breathing. "Okay, this is seriously overpowered," Carter muttered, grinning as he prepared to test out his new abilities.
"Let’s go star-hunting… in bulk."
Carter began pulling stars toward him, feeling the raw power of his gravity control at work. Stars came rushing down like fiery comets, blazing trails through the empty void. But as they touched the outer layer of his atmosphere, something unexpected happened—each one broke down instantly, dissolving into streams of pure celestial energy before they could even crash onto his surface.
"Hey, System, why are the stars turning into C energy before they even hit me?" Carter asked, puzzled by the phenomenon.
[SYSTEM]
The host’s evolving body has changed its properties. Now that the host possesses an atmosphere, celestial bodies can be absorbed by simply touching it.
Carter raised an eyebrow, a smirk forming on his face. "Well, that explains it. Guess I’m more efficient than I thought."
He continued pulling stars, one after another, watching them shatter and feed his ever-growing energy reserves. The sheer volume of power rushing into him made his form thrum with new strength, but it was a tedious process. After what felt like eons of pulling stars from the vastness of space, Carter finally felt the rush of celestial energy reaching the amount needed.
"FINALLY!" Carter shouted, exhaling in relief. "That took forever, but I'm done! Alright, System, let’s get this over with. Create my sun!"
[SYSTEM]
The host now has enough celestial energy to create a miniature star.
As the process began, Carter couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation. This wasn’t just about creating a sun—it was about stepping into a new realm of existence. He was literally bringing light to his world, something so basic yet profound.
Energy poured out of Carter, slowly coalescing in the void about 20,000 miles from him. At first, it was just a faint glow, but it quickly grew, taking shape, its form expanding as more and more energy flowed into it. Carter watched in awe as the small star solidified before his eyes.
A miniature yellow dwarf star emerged, not nearly as massive as a full-sized sun, but radiating enough warmth and light to create the perfect conditions for life on Carter. Its glow bathed his surface, giving off a steady heat that, while mild compared to a real sun, was enough to keep a humid temperature across his form.
He felt the subtle shift in his planetary body as the heat reached him, transforming his surface further. His atmosphere stabilized, the weather patterns growing more consistent, and the rivers and lakes took on a gentle, steady flow.
Carter smirked. "Not too shabby for my first sun."
