[Assessing your Faction Leader potential...]

[Assessing your Rank potential...]

[Reached Bronze in 7 days.]

[Evaluating: SSS-Rank Potential]

[Assessing your Town Leader potential...]

[Unified a region under his name in less than 15 days.]

[Evaluating: SSS-Rank Potential]

[Assessing Reputation Points...]

[Current Balance: 235 Reputation Points]

[Evaluation Successful.]

[You meet the exact conditions to become a Faction Leader and create a Faction.]

[Welcome to the Faction Creation Simulator!]

[You have SSS-Rank Potential.]

[You can access the deepest depths of the Origin Records to create custom benefits and perks.]

[Note: Customizing reality will cost you Reputation Points.]

"Huh? Faction perks are bought using Reputation Points?" Caelus muttered.

Ding!

[First, choose your faction name. The name will dictate the underlying power of your faction.]

[Make sure it has never been used before.]

"A name?"

Caelus immediately turned to Sylvia. She was sitting beside him on the edge of the town walls. She softly rested her head on his shoulder while looking at the floating faction creation simulator with him.

"What do you think, Sylvia? Any suggestions for names?"

"I think you should be the one naming it. It will be your faction, after all," Sylvia said softly.

"Hm. Fair enough," Caelus nodded.

"How about the Chaos Faction?" Caelus tilted his head and asked with bright eyes.

He had seen a massive range of faction names when he was scrolling through the list for his Divine Halo. However, he did not see anything named the Chaos Faction.

The Ender of Origin, the legendary Chaos Perception Dragon, was entirely indifferent to everything. Perhaps the dragon never bothered creating a faction, and regular people did not dare use the cosmic power of chaos to name theirs.

But as the sole user with Chaos Axiom Energy, Caelus would without a doubt claim it.

Ding!

[Faction Name: Chaos Faction.]

[Are you sure you want to go with this name?]

[Yes] / [No]

Caelus immediately clicked Yes.

Ding!

[The "Chaos Faction" has been officially created.]

[Chaos represents a lack of organization and absolute disorder.]

[Please select your Faction Trait.]

[Restriction: You cannot choose the trait "Righteous".]

[Available Options: Chaotic, Chaotic-Neutral, Evil.]

[Warning: Depending on the trait you select, you will be attacked by other factions. If you choose Evil, Righteous factions might actively hunt down you and your faction members.]

"Chaotic-Neutral sounds good," Caelus nodded.

Ding!

[Chaotic-Neutral: A Chaotic-Neutral individual is someone who prizes personal freedom above all else, actively resisting authority, tradition, and organized systems.]

[Your Faction is one step closer to becoming REAL.]

[Now, please create a Leveling System.]

Ding!

[Based on your Faction Name and Trait, the primary means to level up in the faction is by going above the rules, doing unpredictable things, and causing chaos.]

"Interesting," Caelus commented.

Ding!

[Please start making your Leveling System. Once that is done, you will anchor Origin Records to your faction and buy perks and abilities.]

[You can create up to 100 Faction Levels.]

"Let’s see. We will go with the basic leveling format. Levels 1 through 100 then."

Caelus began making quick adjustments. For every 20 levels, he assigned a specific title for the members.

Chaos Soldier. Chaos Knight. Chaos Commander. Chaos Warlord. Chaos Master.

And he officially named the experience points needed to rank up "Chaos Points".

Ding!

[You can power the Chaos Titles using the Origin Records. You can write down custom title effects and turn them into reality using Reputation Points.]

"Oh?" Caelus was pleasantly surprised. "I can do that?"

He decided to test it out with the Chaos Soldier title.

Ding!

[Select a rarity for the custom title.]

"Let’s see, Common for starters?" Caelus mumbled as he began typing in the description.

Ding!

[Chaos Soldier (Common): When fighting under the Chaos Faction, the amount of damage dealt to players from other factions increases by 10%.]

[Cost: 15 Reputation Points. Would you like to adjust this title into reality?]

"15 Reputation Points?" Caelus was bewildered.

That was a lot of points. He rarely got them from standard dungeons. But now that he had placed two Mythical dungeons down, he should theoretically earn 30 to 60 Reputation Points daily if his evaluations stayed at Legendary or Mythic.

Yes, he did have a steady stream of income now, but he still hesitated.

"Let’s look at the shop first."

Ding!

[Welcome to the Faction Creation Shop.]

[Because your evaluation is at the SSS-Rank, you can access the Mythical Shop and receive a 75% discount on all items.]

There were a lot of crazy options here. Caelus scrolled through some of them.

[Faction Starter Pack (Mythical) - 50 Reputation Points]

[Details: Allows you to create a starter pack for new faction members. You can choose basic items and buffs from the system to add into the pack.]

"Interesting."

Right beneath the starter pack were more insane items.

[Combat Score Kit (Mythical) - 20 Reputation Points]

[Details: For each level gained in the faction, the member’s Combat Score increases by 1 permanently across all ranks. At every 10th rank, there is a small chance for the received Combat Score to spike up to 5.]

[Benefit Creation Kit (Mythical) - 40 Reputation Points]

[Details: Attach custom benefits to your faction levels using this kit. Your control is limited to giving suggestions, and the Origin Domain will forge the benefit. You can use your own talents and skills as a baseline. The first two creations are free.]

[Reward Giver Kit (Mythical) - 100 Reputation Points]

[Details: Pairs flawlessly with the Quest Giver Kit. This kit will automatically generate and assign rewards for the quests given to Chaos Faction members.]

[Quest Giver Kit (Mythical) - 10 Reputation Points]

[Details: Pairs flawlessly with the Reward Giver Kit. You need this to automate missions and help your members climb through the faction levels efficiently.]

Caelus’s expression darkened seeing the final total. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

So many Reputation Points. He would go broke at this rate.

"Do you want some of my Reputation Points?" Sylvia asked with a soft, comforting smile.

"Well..."

Caelus looked at her with a hint of hesitation. Sylvia had 230 Reputation Points sitting in her balance. He could actually use them right now.

"It will not be necessary immediately."

For now, he decided to buy the Starter Pack Kit, the Combat Score Kit, the Benefit Creation Kit, the Reward Giver Kit, and the Quest Giver Kit.

Ding!

[Before you finalize your Starter Pack Kit, please forge two benefits using your free charges from the Benefit Creation Kit.]

"Hm. Let’s go with a combat buff benefit for the starter pack."

He began typing in his suggestions, and soon, a brand new reality was born.

Ding!

[Benefit 1 (Tied to Starter Pack Kit): Upon joining the Faction, the member immediately awakens their Aura, reaches Tier 10, and obtains the skill "Aura Density" to assist in awakening a Fighting Spirit.]

Caelus nodded in satisfaction. Then, he moved on to the second suggestion. This time, he decided to make the benefit a literal talent. He had plenty of them to spare. Giving one to his loyal faction members would not be bad at all.

Ding!

[Benefit 2 (Tied to Faction Level 10): The member receives the talent "Spirit Tether (Lower B-Rank)".]

Of course, these benefits only worked because Caelus actually possessed them. If he suggested a Tier 15 Aura rank benefit, the system would reject it because his own Aura was not at Tier 15 yet.

Moving on, he fully integrated the Combat Score Kit into the Starter Pack.

Ding!

[Starting members will receive a permanent +5 Combat Score upon joining.]

Starting at Level 2, they would continue getting +1 Combat Score, with an occasional chance of getting a larger permanent boost every 10 levels.

Then, he paid the points to initiate the Chaos Soldier title for reaching Faction Level 20.

Ding!

[Quest and Reward Kits have been successfully initialized.]

[Your Faction is now fully ready to function.]

[You’ve opened the gift pack and received +5 Combat Score]

[Reputation Points: 235 -> 0]

His ranking was the top in the entire Region Domain with Sylvia at second place and Isolde at third. Now he was at the very bottom.

Caelus’s lips twitched violently as he checked the ranking. This was just the worst.

Seeing his pained expression, Sylvia gently pulled him down. His head rested softly on her lap. She looked down at him with a warm smile.

"It is okay. Once my Divine Equivalent Exchange cooldown is over, I will transfer half of my Reputation Points straight to you," Sylvia whispered. She gently ruffled her fingers through his hair.
