"Are you serious? 'Why are my stats so low?"
I also became utterly shocked because I have never heard of a book that have a system, can appraise your stats, and can speak to humans. Although magicians have the skill called 'Sage', it was still different.
I started blankly at the first page of the book. Why and how does it know my name and is that really my stats?
I know that I am not that strong, but I did not expect myself to be this weak. But at least my agility stat is quite high.
As expected, I would have never escaped from that mutated rat monster if I weren't fast enough.
However, after observing the first page of this floating book, I noticed that it does not show how could I make my stats stronger. It doesn't even showed my rank.

| Stats can be upgraded by cultivation, mutation, or stat points. |
| The user's ranking will be displayed after gaining his first experience. |
The same emotionless mechanical voice replied to my question.
"That's a lot of possibilities, unfortunately, I can only do the cultivation method. I don't even know what these stat points are. And besides, only people from Sriben have the ability to mutate."
~ Ting ~
| Mutation can be acquired after reaching a certain level. |
It suddenly answered my half-assed probe. But that aside, is this for real? I will have the chance to mutate?
People who are both magician and can mutate are extremely rare throughout the continents. They are highly regarded, even the nobles respects them.
"If what this system thingy says is true, then this is surely a gift from the Gods!"
Okay, let's try killing some weak monster. Although I want to try this system's prowess, I still need to find Granny and Kniana. So I could only hunt some weak monsters while I am on my way.

I started walking the road ahead. I want to find some weak monster to try my new skills. I am very excited to test these babies out because I have never been able to acquire new skills before. I considered buying skill books as wasting of money.
Since I was awakened, Fireball was my only spell. However, after gaining this system, it gave me two new skills. But why does it have (G+) though?
As far as I know, skills, mutated bodies, and artifacts have the same ranking scales.
V Rank (Common), W Rank (Uncommon), X Rank (Rare), Y Rank (Unique), and Z Rank (Epic).
"Hmmm, system thingy? Are you there? Can you explain me why there's a (G+) rating on my two skills? Hello?"
~ Ting ~
| The current ranking scale of the continents is correct. However, that is only the half of the rating scale. |
| M Rank, S Rank, and G Rank are the second half of it. It is the ratings for people who have reached breakthrough. |
| M Rank stands for Monstrous Power, S Rank stands for Supreme Power, and G Rank stands for the Godly Power. Godly Power is also known as Divine Power |
"The hell? Is that true? So people have been living not knowing this information?"
Maybe it was because of humanity's slow progression. Granny said that we claimed back our lands only after 50 years. And even after we claimed back our lands, we still do not know how to utilize our new abilities.
Basically, humanity has only been using these powers for only a few decades. Maybe it is why no one had achieved breakthrough yet.
"System thingy? How about my title? Why does it have a Mythical word?"
~ Ting ~
| Mythical Power was initially not existing. However, due to fusion of two Divine Power (G+) items, a new rank has been created. It was then called as Mythical. The user is the first ever to possess a thing of this rank.|
| The user can also create a name for me for convenience. |
As I heard the last part of the system's reply. I can imagine a smug face from it. But regardless of that, mythical? I suddenly became excited.
Confirming everything up, I basically have 2 G+ Rank skill and 1 a Mythical Rank system? Although the full power of the system is still unconfirmed, we can't deny that it is a Mythical Rank.
Lots of adrenaline were suddenly released by my body. I became super excited.
"Okay, system your name will be Sy."
| System name Bestowed, Name: Sy, Confirmed |
"Yosh, let's start hunting now. I need to be fast, I still need to confirm Granny and Kniana's safety." a big smile suddenly erupted in Khuan's face.
Out of luck, a small Red-Eye Rabbit came out from one of the bushes near me.
"Yosh, I am going to try my new skills on this rabbit."
I slowly shortened my distance with the rabbit. Although it is only a V+ Rank monster, it can still bite. Don't forget that it has poison too.
When I became near with the rabbit, I calmed myself and used Devourer.
"Devourer"
| Devourer (G+) [Divine]
- Creates a black hole that could devour monsters and objects. The abilities and skills of these devoured monsters and objects can be extracted. Size and power of Devourer grows as proficiency rises.
Suddenly, a small pitch black hole was created out of nowhere just above the rabbit.
It was very black and mesmerizing to see.
Without even a hint of struggle, the rabbit was sucked up.
| Red-Eyed Rabbit devoured, +500XP |
| Thermal sensitivity (V+) skill acquired |
| Devourer proficiency 1.0% |
| Ranking System unlocked |
| Stat Point System unlocked |
| Inventory Function unlocked |
Many small rectangular windows popped up just above the book when the rabbit was killed. It seems like announcements like this were not written on the book.
But the aside, I shouted with all my heart. ~
"What in the f#cking overpowered thing is this?!"
I almost popped my eyes out. Where did the rabbit go? Just like that, the rabbit suddenly disappeared? I have never heard of anything powerful like this before.
Sy also said that there were new unlocked functions. Are the Gods favoring me now? I quickly held the book and looked at my stats on Page 1.

'Woaaah, there really are some massive changes.'
I still can't believe that I had just acquired a new skill. I am a magician for almost 5 years but I never had the chance to gain new skills. But with this book's system, I acquired a new skills effortlessly.
If some nobles and adventurers heard about this, they will surely die out of envy.
So this is what Stat Points are. Wait, why is my stat points 0? And where the hell is the Inventory?
'Is there some kind of mistake?'
- Maybe it is because of his current low INT that is why our MC asks too many questions instead of finding out it himself -
~ Ting ~
| The stat points can be acquired whenever the user levels up |
| As for the inventory, it is located on the last page, Page 100, Why Page 100 you say? The White Book has only 100 pages. The 99 pages are left to accommodate space for the user's future skills. |
"Ohh, I see, I see."
"Turn to Page 100, open Inventory."
The floating white book suddenly turned its pages until it reached Page 100.
'Huh? A chest?' The last page has a drawing of a chest. There was nothing else inside this page. However, when I touched the chest drawing a big blue window suddenly floated above the book.
There was the word 'Inventory in the upper-middle part of the window. There, I saw the image of the Red-Eyed Rabbit.
'Hmm, interesting. So it functions like the storage equipments of the alchemists from Britidian.
"Waaaahhhh!!"
I almost exhausted my throat up. I am utterly confused and excited. This hell of a book is as good as hell. Storage equipments are very very very expensive. Only ultra rich adventurers and nobles have those kind of equipments. But I got mine from a book? Who would believe me if I say this to other?
I continued my journey to the eastern part of the mountains with enthusiasm. With this book, I believe I could a better life for Granny and Knina.
'Here I goooo!'
