I ignored Knight's comment and looked toward the system notifications still floating in front of me.
"Hey, System," I said, "is there a way to restore the cities? Just the infrastructure."
There was a brief pause before the response appeared.
[The restoration protocols already in place will repair damaged infrastructure across Oriel.]
[The Authority Holder is not required to intervene.]
"Oh."
I stared at the message for a moment before exhaling quietly. It made sense. A conflict system designed on this scale had probably seen worlds destroyed far worse than this before, and if entire civilizations were meant to continue afterward, then rebuilding protocols were obvious.
At least the people returning wouldn't be forced to live in ruins forever.
Then my gaze shifted toward the divinity resting inside my soul.
"System," I asked again, "what exactly am I supposed to do with all this divinity now?"
The response appeared immediately.
