Ultimate System Creator



When Arceau's full-powered attack collided with Keith's fist construct, the power of Keith's fist construct was weakening at a fast rate. Of course, Arceau's power was weakening alongside Keith's fist construct.

But, compared to the rate of Keith's fist construct being weakened, Arceau expended more energy and it didn't take that long for her to expend all of the mana and divinity that she had recovered from sacrificing the powerhouses in her world.

There was only 30% energy left in Arceau's energy reserves but Keith's fist construct still had 40% energy left. Even if Arceau expended all of her energy, it wouldn't be as easy as 40% subtracted by 30% since Keith's fist construct possessed higher quality in both mana and divinity.

From her estimation, even if she sacrificed all 30% of her energy, only 10% of Keith's fist construct would be reduced. So even if she expended all of her energy, Keith's fist construct would still have 30% remaining power.

Although 30% of Keith's fist construct wasn't enough to destroy Arcadia, it was more than enough to destroy all of the continents and lands on Arcadia and only have the vast ocean left.

Even Arceau didn't want such an outcome so she tried her best to stall as much time possible to recover her mana and divinity while blocking and preventing Keith's fist construct from colliding with Arcadia. Arceau was currently having a protracted battle against Keith's fist construct and it was left in a stalemate.

But even if it was left in a stalemate, it was inevitable for Arceau to be defeated if this protracted battle continued. After all, she was slowly suffering from her body bearing the pressure of Keith's mana and divinity that was being released by his fist construct.

Even with her divine body that had far surpassed the limits of the mortal body due to being bathed with divinity, Arceau still suffered from Keith's fist construct.

The perks of having a divine body weren't because it was more durable and stronger than a mortal body. In fact, mortals who focused on tempering their bodies and learning martial arts would have a stronger bodies than a god's divine body.

It was all due to the divinity in a divine body preventing mortal attacks from harming it. As long as a god with a divine body was attacked by a mortal, the divinity in their divine body would reflect and negate any mortal attacks.

It was the reason why a god-killing or god-slaying weapon was needed to harm a god. And it just so happened that Keith's First Order skill was buff and curse that changes the order of hierarchy.

Keith's fist construct was currently at the first in the hierarchy of attacks. In other words, even if Keith used normal flame magic, he could still harm Arceau's divine body.

And since he used a world-destroying mana fist to attack Arcadia, Arceau was suffering from Keith's mortal attack and even the divinity in her divine body couldn't reflect and negate Keith's attack!

When Keith used his First Order skill, all of his mortal attacks would have divinity in them. Due to that, even a normal mana fist was powerful enough to overpower the Goddess of Arcadia and destroy her divine body!

"This is getting me nowhere! Even after I sacrificed all of the powerhouses in this world, this hateful fist isn't destroyed yet!"

"Just who did Gaia hire this time? For such a powerful god, don't tell me that shut-in goddess sold her body just to obtain that god's assistance?"

Due to her frustration, Arceau didn't hesitate to curse and insult Gaia.

Moreover, she wouldn't believe it if Gaia wasn't involved in this. After all, the attack clearly came from Blue Star so Gaia must be involved!

This time, Gaia who was innocent was being insulted and blamed by Arceau for a crime that she didn't commit. If Gaia knew about this, she might have already gone to Arcadia to find trouble with Arceau. But as Arceau had said, Gaia was a shut-in and it was likely that Gaia was currently sleeping at this time.

Otherwise, if Gaia was aware of all of this, she might have already found fault with Arceau when Arceau created a dimensional gate between Arcadia and Blue Star.

But since she wasn't, Arceau was fortunate that in such a life-threatening situation, Gaia couldn't interfere and sneak attack her since Gaia wasn't present.

After cursing Gaia, Arceau estimated her remaining power and after noticing that the situation was grim, she decided to make a bit of a sacrifice to make the odds of winning in her favor.

Since her right hand was occupied with repelling and holding Keith's fist construct, Arceau unequipped the golden gauntlet on her left and took out a divine artifact from her storage space.

A golden coin with the number '1' on the heads side and '2' on the tails side appeared in Arceau's left hand.

"I don't want to use this artifact since it is too risky. Just one wrong outcome will weaken half of my power. It can only be used to gamble on my future outcome and hope for the best."

Arceau knew the price of using her divine artifact known as "Lucky Coin".

As the Goddess of Games and Entertainment, Arceau's artifacts were related to most games and it was used for the sake of her entertainment. She had created her "Divine Cube" artifact for battle as well as restructuring Arcadia.

As for her "Lucky Coin" artifact, it was used for desperate times since she could only resort to desperate measures. The Lucky Coin's cost of usage was very pricey.

Arceau could control the power of causality with the Lucky Coin artifact. In other words, she could change the cause and effect of her current and future outcome to make the situation favorable for her.

If she flipped the Lucky Coin artifact and it landed on the number 1 or heads, she would have the power to use the laws of the universe to change her current situation into something more favorable for her.

But if she flipped the Lucky Coin and it landed on the number 2 or tails, both her lifespan, divinity, and power would be reduced by half.

It was an artifact that could only be used twice, assuming that she lost in her gamble two times in a row. After all, if she lost two times in a row, Arceau would die.

The half-reduction punishment of the Lucky Coin artifact didn't mean that if 100 was Arceau's value, reducing it twice would result in 25.

No, it worked by reducing the power, lifespan, and divinity of Arceau in her peak state. In other words, reducing 100 by half twice would result in 0.

Arceau could only recover her losses and use that artifact again only if she surpassed her previous peak state and pay off her debts. Otherwise, if she used it on her second chance and she lost, then she would die!

Arceau was well aware of that but since she was already losing, it was better to gamble and try than delay her defeat and death!

But even with that harsh punishment of losing on her gamble, Arceau no longer hesitated and flipped the coin up into the sky.

After the Lucky Coin tumbled in the air for several seconds, it descended to the ground at a moderate speed. And when it landed on the ground, the Lucky Coin spun until it lost momentum and fell on the ground.

When Arceau saw the results of the Lucky Coin, she couldn't believe that it happened.

Before she could react, she felt that her body became weaker and her divinity was reduced by half. Because of that, she was already on the losing side and she could barely stall Keith's fist construct.

Keith's fist construct was already starting to overpower her and from Arceau's estimation, it would take several minutes for Keith's fist construct to completely overpower her. If that happened, then Keith's fist construct would collide with Arcadia and even if Arcadia wasn't destroyed, it was inevitable for all of its continents to be destroyed.

Yes, the outcome of Arceau's Lucky Coin was tails or number 2. In other words, she lost the gamble and she had to pay the price for it.

Arceau didn't expect that she would lose this badly. It wasn't the first time she had used her Lucky Coin artifact and she used to win 9 times in a row before in her battle against Filicia and Gaia.

But now, her win streak was broken and she lost her gamble on her 10th time. As the Goddess of Games, Arceau believed that her luck wasn't that bad since she could use the Lucky Coin artifact 9 times and still win. But it seemed that her luck streak was broken and she was completely helpless in this situation.

"Sigh, I might get defeated if this keeps on. It seems I can only resort to sacrificing my life."

"I will leave the authority of Arcadia's management to my successor and hopefully, that bitch Filicia wouldn't invade Arcadia after my death."

Arceau resolved herself, and after making up her mind, she started to burn her divinity and lifespan.

But before she could continue, a voice filled with desperation and anxiety entered her ears.

"Stop, don't do it! Master Arceau!"
