Star Iron, building an empire starting with game development

"Hiss~! I'm freezing~" On a snow-covered planet, a young man kept jumping around, trying to get some warmth.

Unfortunately, his summer clothes provided no warmth, and his body temperature was rapidly decreasing. He grew colder and colder, and increasingly drowsy. In the end, on this frigid planet, there was one more person who slept forever in the snow...

"Oh dear! I'm late!" an unknown voice rang out, sounding somewhat annoyed.

"Never mind, his body is frozen solid anyway, so instead of thawing it, let's use the games in his memories to rebuild it~" The unknown voice was full of laughter.

"Huh? How did that guy get here? Oh well, let's take his soul first and erase his body." The unknown voice was filled with confusion. Then, a burst of energy struck the ground, and the boy's body vanished from the spot...

…………

In the unknown space, a woman appeared and then gently placed the energy object in her hand in mid-air.

"Hmm... let me see what's in his memories..." The woman reached out and stroked the energy body, beginning to examine its memories...

“There aren’t any nice bodies to choose from~ Hmm? This one is pretty good~” The woman noticed something, and then a projection appeared beside her.

She was a gray-haired girl who looked particularly cold but also a bit naive.

“Oh~ Humans created their own mobile game, Star Railway, so you’re the female protagonist Star~ Then let’s use this body~” the woman said with a smile.

The woman's hand touched the energy body, and the energy body began to undergo visible changes. Its body became slender and shapely, and its blurry face began to resemble the girl in the projection...

"Looks like my technique hasn't gotten rusty yet~" The woman nodded in satisfaction, then suddenly remembered something and lengthened the girl's short, flowing hair to her hips, while also making slight changes to her throat.

“That’s great, it looks even better this way!” the woman said with a smile.

"Hmm? Time's almost up? Then I'll send you back to that world~ And while I'm at it, I'll give you an AI system~ So you can use this cheat to summon monsters from the games you've played to become your guards~"

"Well then~ goodbye~ little one~" The woman smiled and waved, and the girl's figure disappeared into the void...

…………

On a plain on an unknown planet, a gray-haired girl slowly opened her eyes and looked around in confusion.

"I...didn't I fall asleep in the snow? Where am I...? Hmm? My voice..." The girl frowned, but years of work experience made her hold back the words she wanted to swear. Instead, she casually looked around, only to find...

"This outfit looks familiar..." The girl looked at the clothes she was wearing, her eyes filled with confusion.

"Host awakening detected. Intelligent system online." A voice rang in the girl's mind.

"...System?" the girl asked tentatively, her voice filled with anticipation.

"I'm here," the system replied.

"You just said... what kind of system are you?" the girl asked nervously.

"The detailed breakdown hasn't been done yet; it's just a regular system for now," the system responded.

"I...wait, is there a mirror or something? I want to see what I look like, it feels so familiar," the girl asked.

"Received, virtual projection in progress," the system replied.

A virtual projection that only the girl could see appeared in front of her.

"Holy crap! Star!" The girl immediately recognized the girl in the projection, but quickly realized that the girl in the projection was herself!?

"Damn it, which god had the audacity to turn me into this? Why didn't they just wake me up after finding me?" Looking at her current appearance, with her hair reaching her waist, Xing covered her face and sighed.

"Should we proceed with detailed differentiation?" the system asked.

"Do you know where this is?" Xing asked.

"According to the memories in the host's mind, this world belongs to the Collapse Star Railway. The planet you are on is unknown and cannot be determined, but it is known that this place is not under the jurisdiction of the Interstellar Peace Corporation," the system responded.

"What about the ownership of this planet?" Xing asked.

"Unclaimed, this planet is an uninhabited planet," the system responded.

"What do I have to be afraid of if there's no one around?" Xing said, then realized that her voice was different from her usual voice, sounding gentler.

"What's wrong with me right now? Why does my voice sound so gentle?" Xing asked, puzzled.

"The god who saved your life," the system replied.

"God... never mind, I need to find something to defend myself first, otherwise who knows what kind of outrageous creatures are on this uninhabited planet." Xing, who often watches science fiction movies, tried to find something handy on the ground to defend himself.

"You can activate the summoning module," the system message indicated.

"Huh? What do you mean?" Xing asked excitedly.

"Once the summoning module is activated, you can summon monsters from the game you specify to become your subordinates, who will then protect you," the system responded.

"Monsters in a game? That's pretty good." Xing's smile widened as he thought of the monsters with outrageous stats and the weekly bosses in the game.

"System, activate the summoning module, then perform a summon! As for what to summon... let's start with something from this world." Xing said with a smile.

"Command received. Summoning module activated. Initiating location-based summoning..."

"System, how many monsters are there?" Xing asked the system, looking at the small number of monsters.

"First summons: 10 Void Soldier Raiders, 1 Void Soldier Trampler, 1 Automaton Grizzly, and 1 Silvermane Lieutenant," the system responded.

"I understand~" Xing nodded to indicate that she understood, but she didn't see the strange look in Dan Shu's eyes.

"Miss Xing." Dan Shu bowed to Xing. She had already learned some information through the existence called the system, and the Xing in front of her was the one she had met once before.

Although the genders are somewhat different.

"Hello! Sister Dan Shu~!" Xing greeted Dan Shu with a gentle smile.

It wasn't that Xing wanted to laugh like that, but whenever she wanted to laugh out loud, she would unconsciously turn into a gentle, ladylike smile—she really didn't know what that god was doing with this inexplicable thing.

"Do we need to conquer this uninhabited planet?" Dan Shu asked with a smile.

"Let's find something to eat. As for conquering planets or anything like that, I'm not interested in that right now," Xing said, waving his hand.

"Yes, Miss Xing." Dan Shu replied with a smile, and then, while Xing was looking elsewhere, he made a gesture to the silver-maned lieutenant beside him.

"..." The lieutenant did not respond, but quietly left the place—don't ask why such a large suit of armor left so quietly, the answer is the power of fate.
