Chapter 9: It Did Get Worse
{Ding! Restarting system configuration}
{Ding! Sources of external influences successfully cleared from the host’s body}
Draxus opened his eyes, feeling the heavy and dizzy feeling hitting him all at once, a fishy smell wafted into his nose from afar making up jerk up in shock.
"What’s that smell? Don’t tell me you actually fried my brains? If you did how am I still alive?"
{No I didn’t fry your brains, and even if I actually fried them I doubt they could give out an aroma this good because as you can also see, they’re rotten}
Draxus’s eyes twitched in annoyance, he felt like hitting the system but there was no physical form for him to vent his anger on, he couldn’t fight a battle of words with it either so he could only rein in his anger.
"Just forget that, what happened just now?"
{Well, I’ll gladly announce to you that we are surrounded by a group of maniacs currently searching for you all over the school}
"Huh? I don’t get a thing from what you said." Draxus replied, his voice filled with confusion.
{Of course you won’t! It’s simple, whatever is the cause of their abnormal behaviour detected me when I interfered with it’s control over you creating a chain reaction where it’s currently searching for what must have interfered with it}
"It? What exactly is it?" Draxus asked, placed his palms on the ground and leapt up.
Booooommmm!!!
A huge pillar crashed into the wall beside him, breaking it apart into splitters but also crushing the wall apart to reveal Draxus who was buried beneath the rubbles.
{After my warnings for you to remain cautious you still choose this, you keep asserting my conjectures about your intellectual value}
’Just shut up if you can’t help now will you?’ Draxus screamed internally then stood up again nearly instantly and took off into the far distance, he didn’t know what had hit him or what was chasing him but he just fled from the scene before whatever it was could catch up.
{I can not afford to shut up for the host’s sake and mine also, I have deduced that the host has a 99% chance of making common, irregular mistakes that could create disasters for our symbiotic existence therefore I have to prevent such mistakes from occuring}
"Shut the fuck up!" Draxus screamed out, attracting even more attention over to which the system let out a low grumble.
{Dumb}
Another pillar crashed over from the side, slamming at the wall beside him as he "barely" managed to dodge it.
’Oh lord, let this cup pass me by, let this cup pass me by!’
{Cup? You aren’t Jesus}
’Wait, how do you know about Jesus?’
{Oh, I think I said that earlier, I also share the host’s memories, including that of Earth and your minor scampedes. I won’t judge though, you’re a healthy and vibrant teenager after all so it’s pretty reasonable}
’You-- damnit! Where are they coming from?’ the pillars were lunged at him continuously and he had to keep running and dodging just to avoid getting hit by one.
’That aside, why do I feel so light and agile? Mind explaining what’s going on with me?’
{A sincere apology to the host for being so dumb he forgot he had a panel but insists on asking me}
’Oh yes, I totally forgot that, the panel please. I need to understand what’s going on at least and you should reduce the constant abuses please.’
{Cuhh, whatever you wish}
{Name: Orion Kyrosis}
{Age: 17}
{Class:- Mutated Human}
{Race: Human}
{Bloodline: Anemoi}
{Level: 14}
{Exp: 26/1400}
{HP: 186/240}
{Energy: 260/280}
{Strength: 146}
{Agility: 316}
{Stamina: 153}
{Intelligence: 143}
{Luck: 2 (fixed stat, how to increase this? Don’t ask me I have no clue also)}
{Charisma:- 8 (slightly higher than average, will increase automatically after "certain" circumstances, that aside? just leave it}
{Skills: sprint, dash, jump, punch}
{Universal Power grading: Grade F (The second weakest brunt at the very bottom rug of the power levels, less viable to death than the useless F- grades but are at risk of death at any point in time}
{Racial Talents}
{A human, usually born at the weakest F- grade but have the unique and incomparable ability to assimilate the bloodlines and talent of other races, an irreversible process which can only occur once in a lifetime and will be passed down through countless generations, it effectively erases the previous race ability to seek for stronger ones. The human race (Anemoi) was created after Orion made a pact with the god of lightning and speed Anemoi, simulating the race of the ancient god to grant him an evolutionary and growth pattern, possesses immense potential and abilities}
{Racial rank: A+ (pretty descent but still lacking)}
{Note: Racial rank affects the system tier therefore the current system’s tier is A+ rank, adjusted to fit with the A+ rank human race (Anemoi)}
{Th--~~}
{Error detected, current system level is unable to detect the full talent functions of the race, please complete the initial startup and increase the system’s tier to unlock more functions!}
’Ehh? I never heard of this about the human race, is that even possible?’
{You say it like you have any knowledge about the races in the realms}
’Alright, alright, you have a scanning function right? Check whatever is attacking me and where they are coming from, I can’t see anything here right now!’
{Scanning completed already, there’s only a single attacker by the far right, he is the one creating the pillars from brittle metal which is also why they break apart so easily}
’Creating pillars? It all looked like an average normal high school earlier which is why I didn’t even notice my abnormal reflexes but what on Earth is this now?’ Draxus thought but still leapt sideways to dodge another incoming pillar then dashed towards the direction indicated by the system where another teenager was standing with a blank look, hurling pillars one after the other.
"I’m sorry for this!" He screamed out then threw a punch, hitting the teen squarely in his face and hurling back against the wall after which he fell unconscious.
"Well, that was pretty easy!"
{You moron! Do you have to shout when fighting? I clearly told you we’re being hunted but you still choose to scream over a little punch?}
"Hey you need to chill, you sound like an old woman past her menopause, you know what? Just relax at times, if they’re just this strong or even weaker how worse could it possibly get?" Draxus said in a light voice then rushed out of the stadium.
{It is way worse than this you braindead human!}
"What do you mea-- oh shit it is really way worse than I thought!" He nearly screamed in shock when he saw thousands of humans rushing at him from all sides in the school premises, they all had the same braindead and blank look on their faces with a crazy determination to reach out to him and rip him apart.
"Nahh, I’m not staying here, time to summon my inner potential and use the greatest technique of all time: Strategic and unplanned retreat!"
