The New World's Unruly Rabble

At this point, Naimus began making choices completely different from his earlier approach of keeping the world as close to reality as possible.

He strictly limited the proliferation of life, especially the birth of beings like gods.

Yet as he watched the world evolve, it soon grew to the size of a small estate.

Things were fine at first. As the world evolved, this "world" rapidly expanded. No innately divine "gods" were born, and even the first life Naimus had brought forth was nothing more than an ordinary living being.

These lives rapidly evolved on their own within the world, at a pace countless times faster than that of a normal world.

Once they had evolved to a certain extent, Naimus discovered a problem.

Life itself possessed a tendency toward internal consumption.

If life was left unmanaged, their actions would consume one another, negatively affecting the movement and development of the entire world.

Naimus then chose to guide these lives in the name of a "god."

He then guided one type of life to develop intelligence and named them "humans."

The results were indeed quite good.

The "humans" would generally act according to his intentions.

However, Naimus had many things to do at the moment. His mental will had to be spread across the entire "world," while their minds and wills were relatively simple.

Whenever Naimus invested more energy into other aspects of the world's evolution and failed to guide those lives, they would start acting recklessly.

Especially since these lives did not have long lifespans. After several generations passed, his previous guidance would either be completely discarded or distorted beyond recognition, even used in the opposite direction.

They could truly be called a bunch of unruly rabble.

At that moment, Naimus realized that he did not have enough "energy."
