After the grueling war and the successful annexation of the enemy kingdom, Kenta found himself in a rare moment of calm. The war-torn lands were being rebuilt, his people were recovering, and the newly integrated territories were beginning to stabilize under his just rule. Despite the peace and progress, Kenta's mind wandered back to the other world he had created. It had been some time since he last checked on it, and curiosity gnawed at him.

In the privacy of his chambers, Kenta activated the divine ability that allowed him to monitor the world he had brought into existence. As he peered into the portal, he was astonished by the transformation.

The once barren world now teemed with life and activity. The humans he had initially created had multiplied, forming villages and communities that dotted the landscape. What caught his attention most was their advancement; they had discovered agriculture. Fields of wheat, corn, and various vegetables stretched as far as the eye could see. This agricultural revolution had clearly led to a population boom and a more settled way of life.

Kenta observed as farmers tended to their crops, using rudimentary tools they had crafted themselves. The sight filled him with a sense of pride. His creations were thriving, learning to harness the land's resources to sustain themselves.

As Kenta continued to watch, he noticed another significant development: religion. Various structures resembling temples and shrines had been erected in different communities. The people gathered around these places of worship, offering prayers and sacrifices. It was evident that his creations had developed belief systems centered around the concept of a higher power—a god of creation.

He listened to the priests and shamans as they spoke to the congregations, their voices filled with reverence and devotion. They spoke of a god who had given them life, provided them with the means to survive, and who watched over them. Kenta realized they were speaking about him, even though they did not know his true form.

Seeing the depth of their faith, Kenta decided to strengthen this burgeoning belief. He knew that a unified religion could bring his people closer together, fostering a sense of community and shared purpose. He also understood that their faith in him could be a source of great power.

Kenta decided to manifest his presence in a subtle yet impactful way. He infused the temples and shrines with a faint, divine glow, making them appear more sacred and awe-inspiring. He also ensured that those who prayed to him with genuine faith would feel a sense of peace and warmth, a gentle affirmation that their prayers were heard.

To further solidify their faith and aid their development, Kenta decided to grant them resources. He made sure that the soil became even more fertile, causing crops to yield bountiful harvests. Freshwater springs appeared near every village, ensuring that clean drinking water was always available. He introduced new types of fruits and vegetables, enriching their diet and health.

Kenta also placed deposits of various minerals and ores in the mountains and hills. These resources would allow them to advance from the Stone Age to the Metal Age, opening up new possibilities for tools, construction, and trade.

To those who demonstrated strong faith and devotion, Kenta decided to grant special blessings. These blessings manifested as heightened abilities, such as increased strength, sharper intellect, and enhanced healing. Those who received these blessings often became leaders in their communities, guiding their people with wisdom and compassion.

Kenta watched as the people reacted to these miracles. There was a surge of renewed faith and excitement. The priests and shamans proclaimed these blessings as divine gifts, further solidifying the belief in a benevolent god of creation. The temples became centers of learning and culture, where people gathered not just to pray, but to share knowledge and celebrate their prosperity.
