Chapter 897 Time To Make More System Seeds
-----
At the same time as that happened, Luck's claws pierced the tyrant tiger he was fighting, right into the back of his neck. The beast instantly fell into the floor, incapable of fighting anymore and with such a deadly blow that it died instantly. Its body was covered on wounds, showing how tenaciously had Luck fought.
Zack had finished off the other Tyrant Tiger by himself, ending its life rather swiftly by easily blocking its hits with his winds and lightning and then beheading it with his powerful Divine Battle Axe Techniques.
Ding!
[Your Allies have slain [Tyrant Tiger Juveniles (Tier 4)] x3!]
[You earned 200.000 EXP!]
Well, thanks for the EXP, I'll take it. It's not so much EXP, but it'll suffice for now, more than enough EXP for what I had expected, which was nothing at all.
"Well done! Looks like you guys Ranked Up well enough." I nodded confidently.
"Ugh, I am so close to Max Level myself, but I need so much EXP!" Aquarina complained behind me. "Can't we go raid that Arachne Dungeon again, I wonder?"
"The Fishman King Dungeon will have to do, there's still a lot of strng monsters down there if we ever want to do some heavy grinding, which we'll eventually do, I need the EXP as well." I nodded.
"Well, I guess so." She shrugged.
"Phew, that was amazing! Those new Skills you awakened for me were really good, Sylphy!" Luck said, leaping out of the huge tyrant tiger corpse.
"The Weaponization Skill was unexpectedly useful too!" Lara was happy as well.
"Ah, well, it is just your own talents blossoming a bit faster, but it was all your own powers, I didn't exactly gifted them to you or something." I laughed, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Hmmm…"
"Uh-huh…"
"Alright then…"
"Huh? Exupe? Levels? What are you guys talking about?"
Meanwhile, as we talked about System-related stuff, the rest of our friends felt… left out. Zack, Celeste, Celica, and Mist had little idea what we were talking about and felt like they needed some explanations.
"A-Ah, well, I guess we should explain this now that we're alone." I decided to tell them anyways. "Remember that Heroic Talent Awakening I did to you guys back then?"
"Oh, that…" Zack said.
"Is it related to what you did?" Celeste wondered curiously.
"That awakening was really cool, I gained a lot of power from it." Mist said.
"I got magic I never thought I could use." Celica giggled.
"Yep, that… Well, this is a more advanced form of that." I explained.
"Yeah! When you defeat monsters you gain EXP, which are like numbers, and once you fill a certain amount of numbers, your level goes up, and you get a bunch of stats, which increase your body strength, speed, magic power, and other things passively!" Said Aquarina very excitedly. "Do you think you could give them one of those too? Lara and Luck got them as well before them…"
"I was thinking about distributing more System Seeds, yeah." I nodded. "I gave them to Lara and Luck first because they needed to grow stronger the fastest to catch up to us, also Heroes tend to grow faster with the system I think, and it helps me dig their talents faster."
"I see…" Zack nodded. "Okay then it's my turn to get one, we've been friends for years so its only natural!"
"Haha, okay… Alice, can you make some?" I asked my Spirit.
"I can." Alice nodded. "I can make more than one a day now that I've grown so much healthier, I think I could give them all one actually!"
"All of them?!" I asked. "A-Are you sure that's fine?"
"Yeah, don't worry, I can just rest the next days!" She said. "It's your friends after all, we wouldn't want to make them wait, right?"
"So it's Alice, huh?" Wondered Zack. "She's always been a rather mysterious spirit, she was born with you, right? Is she where the System Powers come from?"
"Y-Yeah, kind of…" It felt a bit weird to talk so openly about the System with my friends after so long. "I am a bit different, unlike others, I can't level up, but I can use the EXP I earn to make my skills level up faster, and I can utilize it to enhance my dungeon's growth, or even create more systems for everyone."
"But why can't you level up Sylphy?" Lara wondered, confused.
"Well… It's complicated, it's just that my main system came with problems, or something. they can't be fixed, but in exchange for that, I get different and new abilities." I explained as easy to understand as I could.
"Oh, I get it. You sacrifice something to get something else." Luck nodded. "I'm guessing it wouldn't be possible for us to get Dungeons or Quests, or anything like you do."
"Yeah, those are unique to mine." I smiled. "But anyways, let's begin, Alice, let's do this."
"Alright! I've been waiting for all of your friends to get a System this entire time!" Alice seemed really happy. "If I tell you the truth, these Systems I create, once they acquire a host, gain some energy that is administrated back to me. The reason I've grown so healthy is also thanks to these Systems that are supplying me with energy."
"Oh, I didn't knew that… But it makes sense now that I think about it." I caressed Alice's little head as she sat over my shoulders. "Are they like your kids in a way?"
"M-Maybe… Though they cannot develop into the level I am, they do get attached to their hosts, and seem to be rooting for them." Alice said. "Well, enough banter, let's do this…"
Alice raised her hands, as large quantities of energy gathered in her hands. The energy seemed similar to Souls themselves, this was the purest form of the "EXP", Souls, which were also the source of power that the Transmigration Gods used to become rulers of the universe, according to Alice.
FLAAASH!
