7 CHAPTER 7: Clearing Some Doubts And Obtaining Some Vague Information

"..."

"Damn, even if I decide to lie down and hibernate for a million years, I don't believe that I wouldn't become one of the powerhouses in Astroworld. Hmm... maybe I should consider it. No, I can't, if I do so, I will be letting down the power of the rewards given to me ...", Tyler's emotions fluctuated greatly, as he couldn't keep calm in face of all this resources.

'and even if I decided to hibernate, I believe it won't be possible, as the system must have a problem that requires my help'

[ Yes, that's true Master, I won't encourage you to follow such path cos Master is required to be very powerful beyond standard measures so as to carry out out the task]

I knew it!

"But system, I wouldn't want to be controlled, ordered or limited by you, all I need for you to give me my time and space and allow me to do things my own way. So system... Ah! yes, please can you change your voice to a feminine voice, as your current voice is like that of an emotionless housekeeper AI and also I wouldn't want to keep calling you 'system', so would you prefer me granting you a name or do you wanna pick out a name for yourself ?"

[ Alright Master, please grant me a name]

A charming and captivating voice rang out from the system.

Damn! That's such a charming voice.

"Ahem! that's a nice and enticing voice you've got there. Mmm... Got it, let's go with Finola, like it ?"

[ Ehmm...]

"Alright, choose among; Finola, Lilith, Aurora, Origin and Cum box"

Tyler listed, playfully nonchalant.

[Pfft... hahaha... Master, are you joking right now or are you seriously gonna name me that ?]

"..."

He just wanted to play around a bit, never had he expected the system to reply to his casual talk. He also didn't expect the system to have emotions. This was a bit embarrassing.

[ Come on Master, don't be like that. I do have emotions, but I can keep myself emotionless and secondly, your soul or strength can't support my full/ complete presence, that's why I have kept this consciousness that way. Master, you don't have to worry, cos as long as you become a Prime Tier powerhouse, you can withstand my presence for few hours. Only by becoming a Transcendent Tier expert, and being transformed by the origin source energy and obtaining the authority suited to it, can I be with you in my full presence permanently.

Also, when I mean full presence, I meant just the tiniest sliver of my soul consciousness. ]

"Arggh... This makes me feel like a weakling"

[Fufufu, such a weak master]

"Hey don't be cheeky and also I don't truly believe a powerful being like you, will take me as your 'Master', that's something that's basically impossible. So, care to explain and clear my confusion?"

[ Don't worry Master, as I am bound to your soul, I can never betray you or harm you unless I am seeking my disintegration or destruction of half of my powers. Also, as I need your help as 'the main support', according to the Law of Order, I can't force you to help me, but can only submit to be your slave for you to help me and you have to help me according to the settings, and even after that, I must continue to be your slave. Although I have the power and authority to bypass such rules, it will cause a negligible influence and destruction to some parts of the multiverse (more than one Universe) creating a loophole for my rivals and recent most powerful entity to exploit. So after hesitating and thinking for 30 minutes, I accepted my fate and started my task of looking for the most suitable soul to submit to and such soul must be one with the highest initial origin source. That's where Master came about. Master, I would also recommend you not to probe my identity, cos there are some existences that can lead to your death or crippling just by knowing their names or identities. Master can know my identity when he reaches the Transcendent Tier. When the time comes, I will personally reveal my identity to you]

"Yeah I understand, but you really didn't waste a moment picking your choice, cos 30 minutes ain't a long time"

[ Master, although powerhouses are known to see ten years as probably one year or one hour, but when it comes to important decisions that requires urgency and immediate attention, with our powerful processing capacity, we can think faster depending on our strength. For me those thirty minutes were thirty billion years of me trying to find a shortcut or loophole to solving my problems and that requires looking through different dimensions, timelines, universes and spaces .]

"Alright, I guess I quite understood your point, so Finola or Origin... let's go with Finola, so can you show me how to block you from my thoughts, cos that's a troubling problem"

[ Hehehe... You want to hide your thoughts? Well, since you are the Master, you can consciously block your thoughts and emotions from my perception]

[Alright, Master I guess it is time to withdraw my presence, any longer and your soul and origin will suffer irreversible injury or damage leaving it incomplete. Goodbye Master~]

Tyler ignored her departure, focusing on organizing his thoughts, after which he threw some questions to the system consciousness left behind.

"So Finola, there are some things that you mentioned while explaining the rewards; like 'Astro Universe' and the abnormality of the SSS RANK RESOURCE, so can you enlighten me about them?"

[Master, according to the name 'Astro Universe', it literally means that Astroworld is located within the Astro Universe and...]

"Wait, how can a Universe's name be directly connected to a world within it. Aren't there other worlds or planets in this Universe" Tyler questioned, expressing his confusion.

[Unlike other universes, Astro Universe houses only one complete world/planet and that's Astroworld. The absence of other worlds or planets in this universe was caused by a catastrophic entity who poses a threat to the system, that is, me.

It is also recommended that Master should not probe further about the other universes or entity, until Master reaches a certain tier]

"Hmmm... I guess that's the threat that you need my help solving. Well forget about this entity, until I get to the Chaos Tier or even the Primordial Tier, I won't think about confronting it" he voiced out his decisions.

[ That's the right decision Master. Alright... as for the abnormality of the SSS RANK SYSTEM RESOURCE, this is because the system wants the host to mature, grow and evolve, becoming a very powerful being in the shortest time possible, cos certain crisis that needs Master's attention are arising. This series of crisis can probably lead to the destruction of the original Multiverse and creations.

This resource was created with the power and authority of the Primordial Origin Source, Creation (entity & concept) and Existence (being & concept).

This resource can be upgraded by either signing-in, purchasing or obtaining a Transcendent/L - grade upgrade card ]

"We'll cross that bridge when we get there, as for now let's take things steadily. Haa! I've got to sleep as I plan to wake up early tomorrow and plan my next course of actions over this few weeks or month prior to the regional exam day, and look at the time, almost 11:30pm".

Looking down on his rectangular pocket watch, he complained.

[Master you haven't assimilated any of the rewards and also you haven't signed in for today. You will probably have to spend Universal points to purchase the SIGN-IN RESET CARD from the System Universal Shop, as I can't help you with the signing in. Master I promise to explain other system functions tomorrow]

"Ahhhh- hhaaaaaa, Alright Goodnight Finola and don't worry as I would buy the SIGN-IN RESET CARD, and also accept and assimilate my rewards tomorrow"

With the way the sign-in mechanism or function worked, his current situation wasn't convenient for him to sign-in today.

Tyler stated while yawning, as the accumulated stress of the day weighed on him.

He knew that he couldn't sign-in today, considering the ridiculous rules set on the sign-in procedure - Rule - he is to immediately assimilate the reward after signing in.

Concluding his statement, he got up and threw himself into the old bed, retiring for the day.

Once nestled within the confines of bed and blanket, finding comfort in them, he drifted off to the dream scape (land).
