'The cutest in the Omniverse?' The being asked without any change in their tone of voice, making it seem like it wasn't an absurd question.

Though that was mainly due to its experience and multiple encounters of the absurd he had previously experienced from other candidates, there were things much more absurd that other candidates had asked or requested before.

'You can certainly become the cutest in the Omniverse, but unfortunately, the points required is higher than what you have and is actually even higher than what any other candidate had ever received.'

His enthusiasm did not decrease despite being told so as he only wanted to confirm the possibility as he wasn't stupid as to think that becoming the cutest was so simple.

"I'm alright with that, but before anything else can you elaborate on things like what world I would be going to, or would I also be able to choose it? Also, I'd like to ask how we would be sent into the world, will we be sent as a newborn or an adult? Can we choose what race we can become, also can we..." question after question was asked not about the abilities and powers he would be able to purchase but about the details on the world he would be going to and the procedures before going.

He knew that abilities, powers, and skills were the most important when going to another world since the majority of protagonists in these types of stories are unfamiliar with hardships and would have immense difficulty adjusting to such a different environment where death is extremely common, though he was imagining typical fantasy worlds with medieval level of technology and human rights, but he knew that the second most important thing was the beginning, where everything starts.

Of the novels he's read, part of them would have the protagonist start in a favorable situation or location such as in the middle of a field with a road leading to a nearby city, or starting off as the child of noble, or even just having overpowered abilities at the start. The other part would be the novels he actually enjoys such as evolution novels where the protagonists start off as the weakest and useless of monsters and have to fight their way through life-threatening monsters to reach the top to survive.

With his experience in reading all those novels, he had asked all those questions and started formulating a plan on how to take advantage of the start of his new life. Midway through his question, the being had interrupted him with an answer he should have expected if he had remembered what they had said near the start.

'Candidate should be pleased to know that all that you have asked is possible due to being included as what you are able to purchase, we understand the importance to the start of your new life and also the reluctance to spend your points on a seemingly temporary thing such as your beginnings.


'We have thus decided to gift a budget of points to all candidates to be spent on the world you desire, how you would be transferred such as becoming a newborn as keeping your current body, the state of your physical being such as being young or old, and the location you would be transferred at, you may also choose the general circumstances of your birth, such as being born into a wealthy or poor family.

'Things such as becoming other races will also be supported by the budget as we do not wish to limit our candidates, and of course, you may use your own points outside of the budget if needed'

His mind was racing as he was thinking of a million things confirming that there were little to no limitations on what he could choose, so he went for the classics.

"Okay then... can you find me a world where it is multiple times the size of the earth and has technology and magic mixed in to create magitech? So kinda like a sci-fi slash fantasy world with monsters and space exploration..."

'Multiple worlds of the description have been found and before you can ask, I am not allowed to reveal the number of worlds of that description due to the rules, at this point you are able to randomize the selection and the world chosen will be locked in. You are also able to add on more points if you were to randomize you would be using 13% of your allocated budget'

13% was still an acceptable amount so he decided to add more details.

"Uhm... Alien civilizations are common?"

'22%, possible worlds have been reduced by 64%'

It was a little surprising that just adding that would increase the cost by 9% and decrease the number of possible worlds by two thirds, but he didn't plan to adjust it as he didn't want to be limited to one world, that was also the reason why he had wanted his starting world to be bigger than the earth.

"Speaking of which, what's the size of the smallest world in amongst all of them if you can tell me?"

'It is 2.032 times bigger than the earth as I assumed on your behalf when you said multiple times bigger'

"Still too small for my liking... Increase it to a minimum of... 3.5 times?" He asked unsurely, though he wanted to go to other planets, he wanted to train himself on his home planet first by experiencing every inch of it.

'Cost increased to 24.5%, possible worlds reduced by an additional 7%'

Luckily it seems like size doesn't matter too much when it comes to selecting a world. Not wanting to spend any more of his free budget of points, he decided to stop there and randomize the world.

"You can go ahead and randomize now...please lady luck...don't screw me over..." While praying to the mischievous god of luck, he hoped that the world he was going too didn't have any unexpected variables, like if the only sapient creatures on his home planet were goblins, he didn't want to conform to goblins definition of cute!

He had slightly regretted not adding the detail that humans are one of the main sapient creatures as he had stupidly assumed that every world would have one, but it was too late now as a big 'Randomizing World...' was seen on his middle monitor.

After a tense couple of seconds which felt like forever, A big blue and green planet that looked totally different from earth appeared on his monitor, it had many more continents than the earth with most of them being even larger than the ones on earth, along with a countless number of islands that covered the planets like pimples.

The two other screens on the monitor lit up as it showed the statistics of the world such as being called Vanterio being 5.49 times bigger than the earth, the major countries in the world, the basic history of the world that even a child would understand and other tidbits of useful information.

It also showed the sapient races in the world which included humans and... humans and...?

On the list that stated 'Sapient Races' there was only one line which said humans, though he was extremely relieved that he didn't get an unexpected race, as even becoming an elf or dwarf would have been fine, he still wanted a diverse number of sapient races since he had asked for a fantasy mixed with sci-fi world.

As if reading his thoughts, the otherworldly being spoke up. 'Sadly, since you did not specify on other races being included, or any race for that matter, I had included worlds that had one main race. The candidate should know that despite the fantasy genre including other races as the norm, fantasy is a much more broad term than that and thus did not affect the search results too much.

He flinched upon hearing so, thinking back on it he has read tons and tons of fantasy books where humans were the only race, such as a novel set in the modern-day where people suddenly get magic powers. He sighed from his blunder and could only plan to be more careful in his wording next time.

'While all I have said is unchangeable, It does not mean that there are no other sapient races in your world, as the information you see is only the basic complementary information we are obliged to provide, and you are able to gain more by spending more of your budget.'

"Wait, so you're saying that other races may exist but they're hidden? Like living in closed-off communities or obscure places?" His eyes turned wide as a bit of hope returned to him as the words reached him.

'Emphasis on 'may exist' as there is still a possibility that they do not, would you be willing to spend some points to find out?'

Though he really wanted to know if other races existed, he didn't want to waste his precious free points and also thought it could be fun if he discovered them on his own rather than cheating.

"No thanks, now let's move on to the next thing, I want to become a newborn in Alcavia, with my parents decently rich and influential, with my gender being female, like as female as possible!!" He increased his volume when asking to be born female to emphasize the importance of that criterion.

Alcavia was an isolated continent and country with a decent distance from other continents and is also renowned for being the most diverse and magitechnologically advanced country in the world due to the greatest minds in the world gathering there.

'From your description, I have set a criterion for your family member to be in the upper-middle-class in relation to Alcavia as a working-class Alcavian citizen could easily become an upper-middle-class citizen in the majority of the world.'

"I knew it was a great country from the basic information but wow... that puts things in perspective, the cost should be a lot then, how much would it be inclusive of what I already used?"

'A total of 117.13% of the budget would be used which would exceed the allocated budget, you are able to supplement the exceeded amount with 1.93% 'of your normal points'

"No thanks, I wouldn't even use 0.1% of my normal points no matter the situation, lets compromise and have you decrease the criterion so the range is from the lowest point of the spectrum of the upper-middle-class and above until the budget used reaches 90%"

'You are of the majority that refuses to use your normal points for your beginnings so I can understand, for your new criterion, I have adjusted it accordingly and there are much fewer results from before'

"Lowest point of the spectrum or not, it's still upper-middle-class, now for the last 10% of my budget... I'd like loving, kind and unrestrictive parents, as much as 10% allows." The reason he wanted that criterion was not due to his previous upbringing. While his parents may not have been the most loving or kind, they properly did their jobs and parents and cared for him a good amount, and he had properly respected and appreciated their effort to raise him, even if he could not say that he loved them very much.

He added that criterion as he wanted to be unrestricted in his actions in his new like and wanted a loving family that properly appreciated a cute little girl, as that was his destiny, nothing will change it.

'Criterion has been added, would you like to randomize now?'

"Do it!"
