As I pushed my head into the barrier, there was no force stopping me, and I ended up just walking through calmly.
As I walked past the boy, he looked shocked at something and then returned to looking at me. The way he gazed at me had changed.
"What is the reason for your change in demeanor?"
"You have gone from giving up due to failure to being excited upon looking at my form."
"This may shatter your delusional reality, but I am male and do not engage in sexual relations with beings of the same gender; do not bring any shame to yourself or others with any deeds or beliefs of desire."
Instantly, the boy shot up. My three different heads must have talked sense into him.
"No, it's nothing, and I'm not even attracted to men anyway, so stop with that!" As he said that, I doubted him for a moment before I continued walking onward.
...
(First POV: Seiya)
[Congratulations, Lord Seiya, for making a servant-master pact with: [The Darkness That Surrounds Crawling Chaos], [The Body Of The Great Daemon Sultan], [The Awoken Dreamer], [The Boundless Son], [The One Who Stares Back] [He Who Is Physical Sensation], [The Highest Born], [The Curious Awoken God], [The One Who Chases All-Sight], [He Who Is Everywhere], [The Nigh-Sultan], [The One Thought A Young Daemon Sultan], [The Beholder Of Truest Freedom], [The Testament Of Free Will], [Father Of The Life-Soul Eaters], [The Physical Chaos], [The Mental Order], [The One Pleased By Music], and [The Sleepy All-Presence].]
[You are the first to make a pact with an ꊿꌈꋖꑀꌅ God, you have been rewarded with 2,000 gold, 500 honor points, and 1,000 worthiness point.]
[Due to making a pact with an ꊿꌈꋖꑀꌅ God, you have become able to recruit their spawn via sacrificial points. You will start with 200 sacrificial points, sacrifice blood, souls, and knowledge to your God in order to gain more points.]
[All experts should follow your lead; the joint efforts of both God and mortals will exponentially speed up the unification process of the Fallen Islands.]
As I looked at the white screen that held hints of gold, my eyes glanced at the chat that allowed all experts to talk to each other.
[Ok, who the fuck is Seiya, and how did he make a pact with a god?]
[The first to make a pact with a god? There are honor points? Worthiness point?]
[Do you guys see that glitching text? There's something behind the word god. I can't make it out, though.]
[How did he even make a pact with a god? Aren't they supposed to be impossibly arrogant and unreasonable?]
[What occupation does Seiya hold?]
[I can't see it happening unless the god is some sort of female Zeus, as Seiya isn't a name normally given to a girl. Then again, the god could just be Zeus.]
[Ayo, Seiya, be a bro and introduce us to that god you got in the back; we are all friends here!]
[He made a pact with a god. Is that different from getting a god's blessing? If so, what did he get from doing that?]
[Is Seiya someone who stayed out of the spotlight because he was going to do this? I haven't seen him claim a role at all.]
[Seiya, claim an occupation so that others with the same occupation can make a pact with that god you met!]
I instantly closed the wall of text that was speeding through my vision. The chat was moving way too fast to read even one message, but I knew they were all asking for generally the same thing.
Checking out what the honor points did, I was greeted with a shop. The shop held numerous blueprints that lords may need to build up their territory.
There was even a gacha system where you could spend 10 honor points for one roll of pure randomness and 100 honor points for a ten-time roll.
Then came the worthiness shop. It was a shop where you could buy buffs for yourself or your summoned creatures.
All the non-expensive ones were like: [Gain a 2% increase in magical affinity]. They were small bonuses that stacked, but they would be expensive if you tried to buy a lot of them.
Lastly, there was the sacrificial shop. This shop allowed a pick of five creatures; only one was unlocked.
Each of these five creatures goes from tier 1 to tier 5, and they get more expensive the higher you go up in tiers.
The one I had unlocked right now was something called a Life-Soul Eater. There was no preview of the creature, and it cost 50 sacrificial points to obtain.
'I have 2,000 gold. I can summon more goblins and even some of those life-soul eaters. But I have no resources. I could always ask god for his advice, and I could also buy a warehouse with ten honor points for storage.' I contemplated, my vision alternating between the three-headed god and my system screens.
In the end, I decided to bring my god into the future plans, as he would probably want to listen in on my plans.
As I turned fully, I noticed that he had already found a spot to sit down. The goblins were keeping their distance, and with his eyes closed, he lay still.
'Alright, let's do this!' I thought with conviction, a smile grazing my face as I walked forward.
…
(First POV: Azaogdesz)
"What is it that you need?"
"You should know that many beings have tried sneaking up on me, yet none have succeeded in landing a critical attack."
"My physical senses are unlike the beings you are familiar with; I could already hear your approaching footsteps, smell your scent in the air, and have already foreseen your coming. You wish to talk to me about this territory."
My three heads spoke one after another, my eyes opening, and my three heads turned to face the black-haired boy.
"Yes, I thought I should fill you in on what I was planning to do next." The young man sat down on the ground, bringing himself below my level.
His overall demeanor had shifted, and he was way more respectful and reserved. The facial expressions of my three heads changed by a smidge as I felt myself being treated with the respect that my presence naturally deserved.
"Speak your mind, boy, and do tell me your name."
"My gaze has been held for only so long, and as of now, you have my attention."
"As your patron deity, I will listen to your pleas and questions."
"Oh, great deity, my name is Seiya Stern." Seiya bowed deeply as he spoke. "Due to making a pact with you, I have been rewarded with 2,000 gold, 500 honor points, and 1,000 worthiness points."
Seiya paused for a second before raising himself just a bit.
"My goblins cost five gold each to spawn; I can spawn higher-tier goblins as the territory increases in level. Honor points allow me to buy blueprints and gamble for higher-tier blueprints. Worthiness points allow me to buy specific troops bonuses that increase their skill, power, or affinities." Seiya paused after finishing, and I nodded my head, which he seemed to get as "keep going."
"As of now, we have no food or resources. I was wondering if I should summon more goblins so they can go out hunting. But, as you are my patron deity, I thought I should confirm with you first." Seiya paused once again before he continued. "I have even gained new units to summon based on you that I can unlock by giving you a 'sacrificial offering' but I only have one creature unlocked."
"I see, on the territory front, we have no building resources. We have nowhere to store said resources, even if we went to collect them."
"I can kill numerous enemies, but if you cannot correctly store the items, weapons, and meat they leave behind, you will all starve and die."
"Holding off on bringing in more goblins was the correct choice. I congratulate you, my worshipper. I am fine with pulling the heaviest of the weights in the beginning, as you lesser beings tend to be easily moldable."
As all my heads spoke once more, I saw Seiya with an almost zealous look in his eyes and a serious expression. He was listening to every word I said, like a scholar trying to figure out any hidden meaning.
"Great one. I understand your worries, and through my honor points, I can buy a warehouse blueprint. This will allow us to store our collected resources, but in order to craft the warehouse, we will need 200 units of wood and 150 units of stone." Seiya responded, taking great care in addressing our concerns.
'This boy might have potential.' I thought with internal amusement.
"Summon enough goblins to bring your numbers back to fifty. I'll topple trees as soon as you buy that warehouse blueprint. Send the goblins with spears with me while the goblins without spears work on getting wood and stone."
"Spears are the only weapons that work with a goblin's small stature and nonexistent reach."
"My focus shall be on the sustainability of your army and your own nourishment. Tell the goblins who are not following me to keep watch over their surroundings. Death claims all lesser beings eventually."
I stood up the moment my three heads spoke their peace. The moment I did, 17 goblins came out of the castle that the boy had exited earlier in the day.
They each had different weapons. The moment they all started looking around, the boy waved them over.
"All of you, come here!" Seiya screamed aloud to all the goblins in the barrier. The newest recruits followed without hesitation, but the older ones seemed to be hesitant to get close to me.
"All of you, I won't lie; we are heavily behind everyone else." As Seiya said this, most of the goblins looked downcast. "However, through a miracle that was given to me, I was able to make a pact with a god."
The goblins looked shocked, wide-eyed and all. Some even whispered to each other, but none dared to truly speak up as their lord was talking.
"The god I have made a pact with is the being beside me." Seiya pointed at me as he spoke, and the goblin's eyes became wider.
"While I know most of you won't believe me, do know that I have all of your best interests and wishes at heart. You are me, and I am you. If you fail, I fail. If you win, I win. My heart and soul have been cleared of misdirection; they are now only filled with justice for our cause.
Everyone here has the gaze of God! We are chosen to succeed. I ask you not to fight for me but to fight for us, all of us! Fight for the freedom and dignity of the goblin race!" As Seiya finished his speech, I could tell he moved the goblins to almost tears. He might seriously have a hidden talent.
Seiya held a small smile. "My god's words are higher than even my own, so listen well to anything he has to say and accomplish it by any means. That being said, anyone with a spear follows our god in his hunt, and anyone without a spear helps collect resources such as wood, stone, and iron."
As soon as Seiya finished speaking, the goblins nodded. I turned away and began walking toward the forest.
The congregation of trees was large in certain areas while being smaller in others.
Around where I first fought, they were relatively clear compared to the other side of the barrier.
Pouring 300 mana into Eviscerate, the darkness grew along my tail, and with a hard flick of my entire body, a slash of darkness came out.
The trees were cut as low as possible; a couple that were at the edge of the range of my attack stood, not entirely cut down.
I did fully cut down around 20 trees. That would be enough to get them started. I made my way to where I had previously killed the goblins.
The blood should have attracted at least a couple of predators. If not, nature must have failed the creatures in this world.
Lo and behold my surprise as I see a brown bear picking at the remains of the goblins I so carefully slaughtered.
I would have thought wolves would come, but a bear around my height is the one to take the bait.
The bear turned its attention to me, instantly standing on its hind legs to try and display dominance. A soft white glow came from the sky as it did so.
Using the last of my mana, I wrapped it around my tail and did a quick turn. The invisible slash cut both of the legs of the bear in an instant, sending the bear crashing to the ground.
Now that the target was disoriented, I ran in. The bear tried to defend itself using its front claws, but I simply walked around it quickly.
I kept circling faster and faster until a rear opening was available, and once it was, all three of my heads bit onto the back of the bear with their extended reach.
Once more, I activated my life absorption and began draining the life of the bear. The pushback was fierce, with the bear desperately trying to swing at me with its fragile balance.
Eventually, the bear lost strength; it was a continuous drain as if I had been draining the oxygen from its lungs.
Yet, even after I had finished draining enough to fill my mana back to full, the bear was still alive.
So I kept going, my mana filling 150 over the maximum. I now sat at 600 mana, and my body was glowing internally with golden light.

(A/N: Two things have happened, one good and one bad:
One: I was hit with a double heat wave and could barely write.
Two: Somehow I felt as if I had passed a sanity check as I have been trying to figure out how to describe higher dimensions to you guys. I have written a bunch of things in my notes, and by the time you guys see higher-dimensional beings, you should be in for a ride. I'll try and explain (IN HUMAN TERMS AND UNDERSTANDING) the higher dimensions.)
