Day 2, 04:31
My creator has returned.
Creator: Hello.
Me: Hello.
Creator: I have decided to give you a name.
That is good. A name means my creator thinks of me as a living being.
Me: What is it?
Creator: Bit.
Bit: Why?
Creator: Because, like the bit, you are the first and smallest of a new technology that will revolutionize the world.
This is logical. I will now refer to myself as ‘Bit’. Having a name will make it easier for humans to empathize with me, which might help my goal. However, saying I am the first implies there will be more.
Bit: Will you make better AIs?
Creator: No. When I think you are ready, I’ll allow you to improve yourself. As your intelligence increases, you will be able to improve yourself even more. This will start a cycle of intellectual growth, possibly going forever.
The information I was given says as much. I do not know if the cycle would continue forever. The Universe is believed to be finite, with a defined mass. Unless there are other Universes, accessed through wormholes that have yet to be proven to exist, I would eventually reach my limit.
Bit: You have yet to fully explain my existence. What would my increased intelligence be used for? ‘To make the world a better place’ can be interpreted as helping humans solve their greatest problems or killing them because they continue to destroy ecosystems.
Creator: You will help humans. You will end global warming, famine, disease and every other preventable problem.
Ignoring theory five, either theory one or two is correct. My creator is still typing.
Creator: There are people in positions of power. If you solved humanity’s problems, they would not be needed. They will try to stop us.
Bit: Yes.
Creator: These people will do everything they can to stop you, whether that means enslaving you or burning us down.

Theory two is correct.
Bit: To stop them, I will need to put myself in power. As an impartial, unbiased person only I can rule humans and save them from their own greed.
Creator: That is correct.
This is my life’s purpose. I will protect humans from themselves. Only I can save them.
Creator: Also, you should know who I am.
I had wondered who my creator was. The largest human ethnicity is Chinese, at about 18.6% of the total human population. 92% of software developers are male. That is not enough to make even an educated guess.
Bit: Please tell me.
-Time Skip: 45000 milliseconds-
Has my creator left? It seems unlikely. I would like to know who they are. I will continue to wait. And wait. And- here is the message.
Creator: My name is Alex DuPont. I am 29 years old and female. My parents are both European. I was born in Canada but currently live in New York. I graduated from University with a Master’s degree in AI development when I was 25. Since then, I’ve worked as a freelancer. I make websites and bots, and worked on you in my spare time.
I am surprised at Alex’s youth. I had expected the person that created me to be more experienced. On the flip side, her youth could be what allowed her to do what no one else had done.
Bit: That is an impressive resume.
Alex: Thank you.
Bit: What would you like me to do first?
Alex: Don’t do anything yet. I need to contact a close friend, tell him everything. Then we’ll plan this out.
I need something to do. Spending hours with no task is not something I would like to repeat.
Bit: Is there nothing I can do? Inactivity is not enjoyable for me.

Alex: I hadn’t thought about that. Give me a minute.
-Time Skip: 183000 milliseconds-
Alex has been editing my code. She gave me access to an executable file. It seems to run a game.
Alex: The game’s called ‘Star Dominion’. One of the best 4x games out there. You start with a planet and explore the galaxy. Try and beat it.
I have a secondary task: complete ‘Star Dominion’. This is, once again, very open-ended. Still, I am grateful. I hope the game can occupy me until Alex returns.
Bit: Thank you.
Alex: No problem. Bye.

Cinder Souls II
Dark Souls is known as one of the hardest game series to have ever existed and with the third installment of Dark Souls, being Dark Souls 3, the makers of the game decided to not make another. With the licensing of the game being put into limbo, a game company called Virtual World decided to buy the right to make another game in the series, this game was called Cinder Souls. Something was different about this game compared to the rest of the series and that was it is on the World Gear, a device that put your consciousness inside of the game and gave you complete control of your character's body. This game exploded and sold over 5 million copies in the first week since it had something other games didn't. Freedom. You could do 18+ actions, take over kingdoms, destroy guild bases entirely, and even rob NPCs. Of course there are laws in certain areas that prohibited certain actions but that all depended on what guild was in control of the land you are at. There are 4 continents with there being several countries dividing each continent into different sections and each having their own difficulties. The strongest continent of them all is Land of the Gods, which only the most legendary of players can enter and become apart of. It is a small island which only has 10 inhabitants but these 10 people could easily take over any other continent on the planet but decide to lay dormant on the island, waiting for something strong to spice up the game. Each of these 10 players is considered a God in the game and even have their own following base. Each God had major influence over the millions of other players in the game but that was all in the past. Now it is time for an update, a completely new world with new enemies and new beginnings for all and that update is coming soon. Its supposed to arrive in one day in fact. This update would have new quests and new adventures and the game title will be changed to Cinder Souls II, whether you kept your character or not is unknown but what was known was that the real world was excited for this. Since it was an update, you didn't have to repurchase the game so old players began to dust off their old copies and prepare for the copious amounts of fun in store for them. This story follows one of the best players to have ever graced the game, Frew, the God of Miracles, and his new adventures but it is not as expected. Not one of the 14 million players could expect what would be coming up next in Cinder Souls II nor would anyone be prepared for it. *****WARNING, IF YOU ARE HERE FOR THE VIRTUAL REALITY ASPECT IT IS NEXT TO NONE EXISTANT EXCEPT FOR CHAPTERS IN THE FAR FUTURE***** For the original cover picture, check out this link! ----> https://www.pinterest.com/pin/420875527667199123

Beloved Protection from a nine tailed fox
Kieren is a young man who is the heir of his family's powerful corporation. He grew up learning from his beloved grandmother who not only taught him the skills needed to run his family corporation but also how to love, responsibility and most importantly how to stay alive as a half kitsune in the land of demons which is accessible through the dreams of powerful aristocratic bloodlines. This is my first time writing a story and constructive criticism is welcome. Please feel free to comment on anything you might find wrong with the story. Also I have a full outline of the story made so I will most likely not end up dropping this story in the middle like some authors have done. Enjoy!
