Clark was flabbergasted with his find. He could not believe that he finally found one treasure amidst trillions of trash inside his inventory. And to think that it only took him 3 years to find it.
This was certainly a great cause for celebration! Alas, our bored gamer tried to suppress his glee and continued to experiment with this new item in his hand.
"Amazing! Even with the physique of a True Immortal, i still could not crush this simple looking clay brick with all the power i got in my possession!"
Clark exclaimed as he tried crushing the mundane thing on his palm. Unfortunately, he found no success whatsoever in what he wanted to do.
But this realization has only brought a wider grin on our good gamer's face.
"Do you know the origin of this clay brick, Nancy?" He asked his handy system after a time.
Clark was of course well aware that that fucking Elder God may be spying on him at this very moment but he was betting on the pride of the strong to linger in the heart of that Supreme Existence.
An Elder God would not act merely on impulse or passing curiosity on an unknown item like this clay brick. At least this was what our bored gamer wished to happen.
He did not think that using his summon Blood Twin or any other undead would escape the tight scrutiny of that fucking Elder God.
In the end, our avid gamer could only gamble on the unsung virtue called pride.
"System Scanning..." Nancy began her inspection.
"DING!" After a long minute, she finally gave what she found.
"System successfully scanned the item, host. That is a normal clay brick composed of clay and nothing more.
The process of making it includes burning the clay at high temperatures and this would lead to extreme ceramic bonds in the br..."
Nancy's sweet voice rang in the ears of our bored gamer but Clark was already too preoccupied to listen further.
'Not even the system Nancy could tell what this thing is. Interesting!' Clark rubbed his chin and it did not take him long to think of a course of action.
'I hope this works.' He could only pray as he bit his finger and dropped some blood on the clay brick. Alas, nothing happened at all. No explosion nor any surprising revelations to be had.
The clay brick just devoured our bored gamer's blood in an instant.
"FUCK ME! Why did it not work?!" Our bored gamer was shocked when his expectations failed him yet again.
Still, Clark was not made of fragile composition and so he chose to be stubborn like always.
"I don't believe that I can't unravel the secrets within you! You're just an ugly clay brick after all!" Our bored gamer cursed and drew out a sharp knife from his inventory.
This was no ordinary knife at all because not many things could injure Clark as he was today. He needed a powerful Mythical Weapon to do that.
"PUCHI!" A grave wound marked the hand of Clark and then...
"SPLASH!" The crimson life giving force fell down towards the smooth surface of the clay brick. In the next breaths, he could see that his health stat was slowly dropping alongside his actions.
Health: 9,950/9,950
Health: 9,900/9,950
Health: 9,000/9,950
.
..
...
In less than five minutes, our bored gamer was already weak and gasping like a dead fish on his bed. He was so pale that even a single slap could kill him right then and there.
Health: 5/9,950
"DAMN! How could this clay brick so greedy of my blood?! Isn't it full already?! This ravenous pig!" Clark sighed and stopped his voluntary bloodletting in the private space of his chambers.
A second passed and the natural regen perk of his body also took place.
+10 Health
+10 Health
+10 Health
.
..
...
"This is taking me so long." Clark shook his head then withdrew one Greater Health Potion from his inventory. He chugged the contents without another word said.
Our bored gamer felt that his strength was coming back into his body like the raging river of Life. He was in the pink of health once more in but a few moments alone.
"Just what kind of treasure did I stumble into?!" Clark whispered and began making short term plans for this inscrutable item.
He looked on the empty flask of the recently full Greater Health Potion and thought of a bright idea thereafter.
"Let's see who's got the bigger stomach between us then! Hehehe." Our good gamer smiled then proceeded to follow his design.
He took another potion, uncorked it, then poured its contents unto the mystical clay brick. Alas, the latter just consumed it like the dry deserts of The Barren Lands.
It did not even spill one drop of blood.
"HERE! Drink some more!"
"Cheers! You greedy clay brick!" Clark was not disheartened at all. He was even quite ecstatic with this development.
It could only mean that he has truly found something unique in this clay brick.
'With my 1,541,000,000 shop points available to spend, I can't imagine that I won't be able to satisfy your gluttonous belly!
This is all the shop points i've saved for more than 3 years of hard work!'
Our bored gamer remained positive through it all and continued to water the immovable clay brick with tons and tons of health potions.

Somewhere in the myriad worlds, a pair of father and daughter was already tired of playing pirates. They were already doing ninja stuff and clan wars to while the time away.
In fact, both were currently in a war with dead bodies lying left and right around them. The battlefield was noisy and chaotic.
The moans of the dying lingered and the war cries of the living pervaded all over the place.
But what was curious was how this father daughter pair seemed oblivious to what was happening around them.
The two of them were looking at nothing in particular but this was absolutely far from the truth at the moment.
"Silence." The man spoke and then there was silence. All the ninjas that were against him lost fell dead with just a single word of his.
"You're not playing fair, Father." A heavenly beauty complained but also mirrored the actions of her father.
She merely breathed a little bit harder and the opposing ninjas against her own disintegrated into mud.
With only the two of them surviving in the fields of war, a stalemate was the natural conclusion for such a result. Alas, it seemed that neither one of them cared for this mock battle at all.
They were more focused on someplace else.
"Intriguing, is it not? I should take that clay brick with me. I'm sure Seth would be happy to get his hands on that item. Hmmm... On second thought, I think I'd rather not do it.
My husband would only get a lot more enamored with that artifact and lose track of time for thousands of years. I don't think i would want that at all."
The beautiful woman said to the emotionless figure of her father. Both of them covered their faces in black arts and wore a full ninja gear for the occasion.
No one would have guessed that these two were immortals and one of them, an Elder God at that.
"Hmmm..." The Elder God remained frozen in contemplation.
"What are you thinking, Father? Are you also interested in that clay brick? I'll get it for you then. I think it's better that you should keep that item for now.
It would be much better than for Seth to have it. Definitely not!" The woman laughed like a naughty child.
She was about to make true what she had just uttered but was stopped by a firm command in the next breath.
"Stay your hand, Valeria!" The Elder God raised his voice. Something that he rarely did in the untold years since time immemorial. It did not need telling that Valeria was stunned in place.
When she recovered, she could only nod in response and gave a scene in that distant world a better and a more serious view.
"What's wrong, Father?" Valeria whispered this question out but was met only with a grave silence as a reply.
"..." The Elder God's eyes blossomed into a blinding light as it pierced into the distance.
With an overt action like this one, it was all too obvious that a giant has made a move in this part of creation.
Time stagnated to a halt which also affected the myriad realms on this dimension. Both the Mortal Realm and the Divine Realm.
Perhaps the only existences left immune to this extreme force were the True Immortals but they did not dare make a move nor utter a huge sound in fear of inviting Death into their own Houses.
"Who the hell is making such a big move?!" This was the sole question that rang in the minds of these True Immortals. Sadly, they were not privy to this secret at all.
Amongst all souls in this known universe, only 2 were spared to witness what was happening in full right now.
* * *
"Oh... I wonder what instigated our friend to act this way?" A voice rang in the void. This Old One was curious to know the truth behind this question.
* * *
"I sense the coming of Doom. What have you done, Changes?" Another old soul asked and willed to put a halt to this severe blunder. Alas, everything was all too late.
"Sizzle!" The smell of burning meat wafted in the air before a god bled and cried blood in the aftermath.
"FATHER!"
