Sunny began to fulfill each of the pending requests, working methodically through the daunting queue.
While most orders were for ordinary weapons—items like spears, bows, swords, and shields—his attention was soon captivated by a peculiar request.
One God from a magic-infused world asked Sunny to replicate a rare item named Tear of Mermaid.
[Item Name: Tear of Mermaid]
[Grade: S]
[Description: Can increase the Grade of talent related to magic.]
[Note: Only works on talent below S-Grade.]
"I just introduced magic into my world, and my world is not inherently a magic world," Sunny pondered, his thoughts racing.
"So, having a human with magic talent will be very tough."
Though this item was exceptionally precious in a mana-rich environment, the cost of manifesting it was surprisingly low, requiring only 30 Faith points.
Sunny, ever the opportunist, directly quoted a price of 150 Faith points, a staggering five times the production cost.
"Who's going to know?" Sunny mused, a predatory gleam in his divine eyes.
"And for worlds inherently built on magic, this item is extremely precious.
Even if I were to raise the price even further, many would still choose to pay."
As he predicted, the client who asked for this replication immediately requested five Tears of Mermaid directly.
This single transaction alone yielded a massive profit of 600 Faith points for Sunny.
He now had more than enough capital to descend into Veridia again whenever he chose.
"One Godly day is coming to an end," Sunny pondered, feeling the subtle shift in the cosmic currents.
"I don't know what surprises will be there from the System."
He decided to wait for the completion of his first full day as a God before making his next descent into Veridia.
Sunny resumed completing the other trade requests from various Gods.
It was a tedious task, fulfilling them one by one, but Sunny did not yet possess the power to multitask and manifest many items simultaneously.
A God from a technology-advanced world provided Sunny with the complete schematics and knowledge for a nuclear power plant.
"Nuclear power plant," Sunny murmured, pondering the potential uses of this advanced technology.
He couldn't find an immediate, practical application for it in his current world, so he meticulously filed this complex knowledge away in the expansive library of his mind, a treasure for future consideration.
Sunny had already completed more than 1,000 requests, accumulating an immense fortune in Faith points.
His total now stood at approximately 90,000 Faith points, out of which 20,000 had already been wisely reinvested into establishing mana stone mines across Veridia.
Just then, one particular message caught his attention, not because of the item request itself—Sunny hadn't even opened the chat yet.
The name of the client alone made Sunny grin from ear to ear.
It was Kairos.
Sunny opened the chat directly, and the description of the item requested was very different from what his imagination had anticipated from Kairos.
"Was he fooling everyone from the start, or is his world mutated enough to have elemental spirits?" Sunny began to ponder, trying to understand why Kairos, the boastful and progress-obsessed God, would be requesting this type of item from him.
[Item Name: Elemental Flower]
[Grade: A]
[Description: Food for any type of elemental spirit.]
The description was short and concise, but the story this flower silently told Sunny was far more complex.
From his prior observations in the God Chat, Sunny already knew that worlds with truly extreme elemental energies were not something any ordinary creature could endure.
Thus, only elemental spirits were typically found thriving in these worlds, because for them, these raw elemental energies were akin to breathing high-quality air.
The meaning of this item request was clear: either Kairos had been lying about the true progress and nature of his world in the chat, or, more likely, his world possessed specific biomes that were naturally filled with these potent elemental energies, allowing spirits to exist.
Sunny believed the latter to be true for only one reason: lying was easy, but showing screenshots or irrefutable proof was not possible unless it was Sunny's own manifested work, which would be difficult to fake convincingly.
"What a lucky fellow," Sunny thought, a cold calculation in his eyes.
"But your luck ends here."
He manifested a single Elemental Flower to gauge its cost and found it to be just one Faith point.
Cosmos: "Price is 20 Faith points. How many of these do you want?" typed Sunny in the private message to Kairos, a predator's smile playing on his lips.
Sunny was not thinking of sparing him for once.
This was a direct 20x markup on the production cost.
He could have simply blocked Kairos and moved on, but looting him of his Faith was, in Sunny's view, a far more satisfying revenge.
Kairos: "Isn't the price very high?" asked Kairos, his digital words conveying a hint of indignation.
He had already inquired about the typical pricing from many other Gods in the chat, and all the answers he had received indicated that Sunny's service was "cheap."
Sunny, to his mild annoyance, hadn't known that his base prices were considered so low by other Gods; otherwise, he could have raised them across the board earlier.
Cosmos: "If you want it, take it. There are many still waiting for their turn."
Sunny gave no room for negotiation, no way out for Kairos.
He had always found Kairos to be a very boastful person, someone who simply couldn't stand seeing anyone surpass him.
But this time, unbeknownst to Sunny, Kairos was in a desperate situation.
In the world of Kairos, a severe misfortune was playing out.
Due to this calamity, the vital food sources for his elemental spirits were dying off at an alarming rate.
His world was indeed a lush, vibrant mana world, filled with diverse biomes, including several regions with extremely harsh elemental climates.
These specific biomes were precisely where the elemental spirits thrived.
However, the spirits in these lands were now dying and teetering on the brink of extinction.
It was commonly believed that spirits only needed ambient elemental energies to survive.
But this was not entirely true; they also required specific spirit fruits, elemental flowers, or other rare spirit treasures.
These crucial resources were no longer abundant in Kairos's world due to the ongoing misfortune.
Kairos had been unable to solve this critical problem for about five agonizing hours, watching his unique lifeforms perish.
That's why he had finally swallowed his pride and decided to resort to Sunny's services.
He had expected Sunny to either block him outright or demand an obscenely high price, perhaps even mocking him.
So, he gritted his teeth and typed his desperate reply.
Kairos: "1,000 Elemental Flowers for now. I will message you if I need more."
Sunny was dumbfounded.
He knew the Faith stored in the pockets of established Gods like Kairos or Strategist was enormous, a testament to their talent and successful worlds.
But seeing Kairos spend this much, all on spirit food, made Sunny's scalp tingle with excitement.
"He is facing some misfortune, perhaps," Sunny mused, briefly considering raising the price even further.
But he quickly decided against it.
Kairos was a fat cow, and he was going to milk him slowly, over time, rather than trying to take everything in one go.
Sunny directly traded 1,000 Elemental Fruits to Kairos.
He instantly gained a staggering 20,000 Faith points from this single deal.
This was, by far, his greatest profit yet from a trade.
Just then, another notification rang out across the vast expanse of the God Space, a System-wide announcement.
[Congratulations Gods! For completing their First day as a God!]
