God is a Game Designer 19 C19 Mistakes Made

Kaye checked on her soldiers, making sure they both were out of harm's way, her eyes turning back to Nathan as he seemed to be working on helping Kai who seemed to also be out of harm's way at this point.

"Nathan what did you find downstairs?"

Nathan finished checking over Kai; it seemed she only suffered some light blunt force that had stunned her for a moment, his eyes looking over to Kaye as he walked to the centre of the room. "Nothing but a maintenance area, it's an area where you can check on the water levels from below and then make adjustments from above."

Kaye felt her face drop as she knew that the only drinkable water was down in the reservoir, she had no way of getting to that water without climbing equipment or any other sort of magic. She felt disappointment coming on her face as it was not how she wanted this to end, coming back with buckets of water was much more impressive then nothing but future hope.

Kaye looked at him with false hope, smiling as she shook her head as she had sent the man into a potentially dangerous area alone due to her need for petty revenge. She needed to say sorry to this man before continuing.

"I'm sorry Nathan, I should have sent someone downstairs with you, it was because of a petty anger I had against you. Please forgive me."

She bowed her body as she ditched her pride to give this sorry, she had to work on becoming a better person, and it all started with a step.

Nathan stared at Kaye with surprise on his face, smiling as he felt warm inside with this sorry. He was very unsure as to what had caused the woman to give this apology, maybe the close encounter with death had something to do with it. Perhaps it was his response that helped after he defeated the elemental.

"Thank you, Kaye, please do not look hopeless."

Nathan moved into the centre of the room, his hands stretching outwards as he started to pull the pools filled with mana towards himself, four tendrils of water pulling out and quickly moving towards Nathan as they formed into a water orb in front of him.

System: It seems you are trying to create an Orb of Water.

System: Orb's of water provide endless sources of water depending on the amount of power. Either mana or celestial power could power it. The latter being much more potent for providing a source of energy.

System: To continue operation two costs will be taken, one upfront cost of Faith and then an ongoing cost of Dominion to supply the orb continuously.

System: Cost 1400 Faith points and three ongoing Dominion points.

System: Accept or Deny?

Nathan looked at the cost and felt his entire body shudder, he could feel his anger rising at such high prices, he needed this item to move forward otherwise he would have many other issues.

'Bastard system, taking all my money. You bloody monopoly, getting away with taking it all!' He thought as he hit the accept button, finishing up the last parts of his work as the orb turned into a bright blue object.

Unlike the previous orb, this one was three times the size, the colour a brilliant ocean blue that shined to the small parts of light that were active in this room. It gave the brilliance of an item created by the gods.

Nathan released the orb to the centre of the room, letting it hang in the air as it glowed a bright blue that seemed to cassacde the entire room in waves.

Nathan looked around the room; he could see two large funnels on the left and right side, he assumed this was the location to funnel the water directly, his head nodding as he focused his power into the orb again, activating it as he felt the power surge inside the structure.

A few moments passed with nothing happening, his frown starting to appear as he waited for this stupid thing to activate.

'Hey, if this does not work can I have a refund.'

System: No

He was wondering who was in charge, the system or him. He dared to not think of the answer as the room started to shake, the rumbling causing everyone to gasp as small drops of water began to leak from it.

"Is that all, come on!"

His hand moved up to the orb, smacking against it as the pressure was released all at once, torrents of water stronger then several firehouses at once being unleashed as two streams extended from the orb, one to the left and another to the right as each stream went into one of the Aquaducts on the side of the room.

Stepping back as he smiled at Kai who was standing at his side, apparently happy that he finally managed to get this stupid system to work.

"Let's head back. We have some work to finish off. Gosh, this was a fun little mini-adventure."

He turned around, his eyes staring at the three soldiers, each of them in total stunned silence as they had seen this miracle happen.

Kaye was the most shocked; she had insulted this man many times, she had even tried to contest herself against a Demigod. She was the biggest idiot on the entire planet right now.

Wait, she had insulted a Demigod, not once but many times.

She was dead, worse then dead she might as well sign her entire life away.

The Demigod who managed to slay someone from a distance that no standard bow could reach, a range that was almost impossible even to see, this many that were powerful enough to cause ten's of thousands of arrows to halt in the air naturally.

She had made a mistake on such enormous levels, only one thing that remained in her mind as she stared at the skeleton-like man.

"I'm so fucked..."
