Chapter 3: The Gacha and the Family
[Scan results acquired.]
External injuries: Broken left shoulder bone, broken left elbow, left hand paralyzed, right-hand middle finger broken, right arm broken, broken nose.
Internal injuries: Concussion, internal bleeding(low).
'How on earth can someone get so many injuries from just falling on the stairs?!! I can't even flip someone off now... ' Ed couldn't help but feel despair at his body's current state but he remembered the pill he had gotten from the System so his mood improved at once.
"System how can I use the pill I got earlier?"
[Host would need to access it directly and eat it, But seeing that that is currently not possible Host can directly consume it from the Inventory]
"Huh? if I can directly consume it why bother access it in the first place?" Ed couldn't help but get confused.
[directly consuming the pill is possible with help of the system in case the system is not available such a possibility won't exist]
'So even the system won't be available all the times huh...' Ed knew that he needed to get stronger, and he needed to do that fast in case something happens to the system.
[Would Host like to consume the body refining pill?]
"Yes!"
Ed could feel that his body was healing fast and was even improving, the uncomfortable feeling that he had due to being injured was rapidly disappearing, such a thing was obvious since this body was at the bottom of this world so after being healed it would at least be considered a normal body.
[Host's body has been healed. The host is now able to cultivate and use all sorts of skill]
after the System finished speaking, Ed remembered about the skills he had gotten from the gift box and immediately wanted to learn them.
"System how can I use the skills I'd gotten earlier"
[Host can now move so I suggest using the Inventory to access those skills/abilities and draw their cards. After drawing them Host can crush the cards and they will be used]
Ed immediately did as the System had told him and crushed the cards.
*DING*
Learned Sharingan.
Learned Spectral Shadow Steps.
"Hmm, System can I scan the skills that I get?"
[Yes].
"Then scan both of them!"
Sharingan Lvl 1 (1 tomoe): enhanced vision/Chakra sensory vision.
Sharingan Lvl 2 (2 tomoe): Ability to copy movements with great ease.
Sharingan Lvl 3 (3 tomoe): Great Genjutsu affinity.
Spectral Shadow Steps: increase movement speed by 10% each level. Decrease sound when moving
Note 1: every level increases movement speed by 10%.
Nore 2: The sound decrease increases with every level.
'...Isn't this basically asking me to become an assassin?!!' Ed was dumbfounded after reading his skill's description.
'Well what is done is done' " System what about the sword I got how can I use it?"
[The same way that the skills are used however it can be returned to the inventory as it is an item, not a skill]
Ed understood more and more about the System's functions.
'However, I know nothing about swordsmanship so can I even use this sword?'
"System what other items do I have?"
[You still have the 10 Gacha tickets you got from the gift]
'That's right I almost forgot!'"Open up the Gacha function!!"
*DING*
As Ed heard the notification an interface appeared in front of him and it was divided into 5 categories: Weapon, Armor, Skill, Function, and Monster; exactly how the system had described earlier.
'I want to get stronger first so it doesn't make sense to get monsters to fight for me, however, what does the function Gacha mean?' "System what is up with the function Gacha? does it add more functions to the system?"
[No. System functions may increase only when the host acquires certain skills or powers, the function Gacha only helps already existing things to improve such as skill upgrades.]
"System use 3 tickets on weapons, 3 on function, 2 on skill and 2 on armor!"
[Drawing gacha]
*DING*
[Acquired Kunaix2, Shurikenx1, Linen underwearx1, Leather shoesx1, Upgrade cardx1, Transformation cardx1, Game interface, one-sword style, Haggling]
Ed could see that most of what he had gotten was normal, there was even underwear in the Gcsha apparently...However, he was most excited about the game interface and the one-sword style skill he got!
"System what does the game interface do?!"
[The game interface can be merged with the System for easier access to the scan function as well as enabling the host to level up in the world the same way a game character can]
Hearing the System, Ed immediately crushed the 2 skill card he got and finally got to the game interface card ready to crush it, suddenly the system spoke to him.
[Would host like to integrate the game interface into System?, Y/N]
"Yes," there was no reason to hesitate so Ed answered right away.
*DING*
[Integration complete]
"Open up the interface!"
Name: Edward Avalon.
Level: 1.
Stats :
Str : 10.
Agl: 10.
Int: 10.
Def: 10.
Sta: 10.
Skills: One-sword style, Etiquette, Haggling.
Abilities: Sharingan, Spectral Shadow Steps.
Monsters: None.
Evaluation: a slight improvement, but you'll still have a hard time.
Ed couldn't help but chuckle at the evaluation he was given but he soon asked the System.
"Why is there no longer cultivation in the interface?"
[As host integrated the game interface it produced a similar effect to games so cultivation was changed into stats]
After checking up on the interface, Ed wanted to try to activate his ability, the Sharingan, he wanted to know how it felt in real life. Soon his eyes turned red in color and it was as if time suddenly slowed down he could see things very clearly and as he turned his head to the right he could see a strange blue substance moving near the wall.
He was confused at first but soon remembered that the Sharingan can faintly see chakra so he asked the system. "How come I can see chakra when this world shouldn't have it?"
[Chakra is only a name given to the energy humans possess, it has different name due to the way each person refines it. It can be called Ki, Qi, Chakra so on and so forth]
Ed suddenly came to the realization that Becky has been next to his door all this time while he was talking to the system.'The the system even warned me to watch out for my surroundings...'
Suddenly even more people started approaching his room, he could see that it was 4 people and he realized that should be the royal family, his father mother, and siblings.
Now all he could think about was how to talk to his new 'family'...
