Stefan observed the worlds he had shaped, noting the potential of mortals and other intelligent races. He wanted his creation to thrive not only under divine beings but also through mortal ambition and growth. With a thought, he began weaving the first powerful bloodlines—lineages that would carry fragments of his own essence, latent potential, and unique abilities. These bloodlines included elves with unmatched agility and longevity, dwarves with unrivaled craftsmanship and resilience, and dragons whose power echoed the cosmos. Every family was given natural talents, skills, and the opportunity to awaken extraordinary powers, subtly guided by Stefan's system, Ciel.
The first of these families, later known as the Ragnar bloodline, would become legendary. Stefan infused them with latent abilities far above ordinary mortals, ensuring that they could rise to the level of gods and mythical beings if their potential was fully realized. He placed them strategically in the first continent he had seeded for humans. Even as children, their senses perceived the faint glow of his will, guiding them toward greatness. Stefan smiled faintly, knowing that even in the smallest mortal forms, his influence would shape entire worlds for millennia.
Alongside bloodlines, Stefan planted the seeds for future chosen ones. Mortals in select worlds received subtle blessings from Ciel's system, which awakened talents and granted them quests, guiding them toward paths of heroism, strength, or wisdom. Some would rise to command kingdoms, some to guard universes, and some would eventually challenge powerful demons and emperors—all unknowingly acting under Stefan's grand design. Even the Church of Radiance, the temples of magic, and guilds of warriors began to form under his quiet influence, creating structured worlds with growth, conflict, and opportunity.
Stefan also began assigning the first disciples to his immortal creations. Angels, archangels, and even Escanor and Diablo were tasked to train promising mortals, guiding their talents while keeping them aligned with cosmic balance. Within his harem, only Ciel and Uriel were present at this time, serving as companions, mentors, and the closest beings to him. The bond between Stefan and his companions was more than loyalty; it was an extension of his will. Each disciple and chosen one felt the faintest trace of his aura, unknowingly growing stronger in harmony with him, yet always remaining infinitesimal compared to Stefan's true strength.
Finally, Stefan observed the multiverse from Heaven. Civilizations thrived, the Outerverse held layers beyond comprehension, Pandora imprisoned chaos, and mortals awakened under the guidance of his system. The first bloodlines, the chosen ones, and his current harem—Ciel and Uriel—stood ready to face the unfolding eras. Stefan smiled faintly, knowing that even as he remained unseen in most worlds, the ripples of his will would echo eternally. The stage was set: his creation was alive, evolving, and destined for a future shaped by the One Above All.
