Chapter:9 History & Thoughts

Chapter:9 History & Thoughts

At night, Michael laid on his bed staring at the sealing deep in thought.

"Hey! system?"

Ding!

The system did not reply, It only let out a bell like noise just as it always did when it was about to speak, However Michael didn't mind and continued speaking on his own.

"You said you'd help me achieve anything I want right?."

Ding!

"Yes."

"So? What are the limitations?."

Ding!

There are no limits.

"Can you explain further?."

Ding!

No

"Why?."

Ding!

Because limits are rules placed on lower organisms. Since I'm not a lower organism I don't have a limit, hence you don't either, as long as you give you will receive.

"What do you mean by give?"

Ding!

Host! You don't have the credentials to receive an answer to your question. To facilitate your curiosity I will explain further in the simplest of ways.

As long as the host Completes quests, missions, or tasks given, the host will receive a proportional reward.

"Alright, so how do we go about doing this!."

Ding!

You have already started.

"Huh? What do you mean?."

Ding!

Sigh...don't think too much, you might hurt yourself.

"Hmf..By the way what did you mean by lower organisms does that mean there are higher level lifeforms?."

Ding!

Yes.

Really! Can you tell me more?

Ding!

No

"Why?."

Ding!

Really? You don't even know about the situation on your own planet and you still want to understand about life outside of it.

"Haha, humor me."

Ding!

Fine! Just this once.

Since you won't understand much I will give you a basic understanding of things.

The Universe you are currently living in is called Strata, It's one of the most prosperous universe's and is filled with countless stars, planets and civilizations.This galaxy you are currently on as you should know, is called The Milky way, as for others the name varies since each world that knows of its existence called it by a different name, but for the most part The Milky way should be good enough for travelers to understand your origins.

In your Universe there are many races to make this simple I'll speak about the top existences and your race, As you know you are human. The next evolution to a human is in a lack of words non-existent as humans are a very adaptable race, And if there is any evolution to speak of it is usually internal and not externally visible.

Many races such as your own take three kinds of the following evolutionary paths.

The path of technology which a lot of races take, they use the resources in their planets and of those planets around them to create comfortable living environments and enhance their military.

The second path is the path of cultivation.

"Sounds familiar right?..."

The races that choose this path strengthen themselves by absorbing the energies of the Universe, it can be a mixture of one or many. It really depends on what they discover first and their techniques. These types of civilizations usually have little to no technological advancements but will have similar elements to them.

And the last type of civilizations is usually a deranged combination of the two which is referred to as the path of destruction, this civilizations be it by their environment of by instinct plunder resources from there home planets and are forced to wonder the galaxy in some type of vessel such as movable islands the size of planets or actual spaceships the size of stars, they move along space searching for planets to inhabit plundering the planet until it's on the verge of destruction or use whole planets as fuel for their ships.

They are usually violent towards outsiders and love to kill whenever they see any living creature.

In your galaxy there are almost no civilizations such as them since they have all been wiped out or are still in their infant stage and haven't left their home planet.

And as you have guessed already, Humans have taken all three paths. In fact you guys have explored almost every path there is in this vast universe which is really amazing.

"Wait,so cultivators really exist?"

Ding!

The short answer is yes.

As for the specifics... cultivators, magicians, and even gifted individuals exist. As a matter of fact almost every energy system your planet knows of exists in this vast universe.

"What! No way! So if I wanted to become a God, you are telling me it is indeed possible?. "

Ding!

100% possible

"Wtf I can't believe this ...you are joking with me right?."

Ding!

Sigh ...Here we go again...

System! Can you make me a god?

Ding!

No

"Huhh, but you just said you could!."

Hearing the system's response, Michael almost began wondering if there was any way for him to beat it up.

Ding! I can't make a god but I can help you become a God.

"Fuck! Why are you playing with me? What in shit is the difference!"

This time Michael really wanted to cry. He thought to himself that the system really liked playing with his emotions.

"Okay?...what's the difference?."

Ding!

The amount of effort put in...I could technically make you a god right now, but due to the rules of this universe and other factors you wouldn't have the qualifications to become a God ... Also if I did turn you into a God directly, it would have to be of the weakest kind, since you wouldn't have achieved divinity by yourself and I doubt you would want that.

"Hehe, I thought you didn't have limits to your power?."

Ding!

Host! It's not that I can't, it's that I'm unwilling. Besides in order to exchange for divinity you would still need to upgrade the system and raise your privileges, as for now all you can do is to play with Paper currency at the beginner levels.

"Hahaha, OK system I've decided! I want everything! I want to be powerful! I want to be rich! I want to have everything there is to have and to be able to explore everything there is to explore be it planets,galaxies and even strange dimensions. I want it all.

Ding!

Do you also want to be called Gold D. Roger....

"Ptff...hahaha fuck you!."

That night was a Peaceful one, full of dreams and expectations of the future. It was also the night a legend that would shake the nice Heavens in the future was born.

On the other hand, in the room across from Michael, Ana was talking with someone on the phone.

"No, I'm fine, there hasn't been any headaches recently." Ana spoke to the person on the other side of the phone

"Yes, I'm taking care of myself, in fact my roommate helps me cook my meals."

"Yea,It's the same guy."

"Yeah, I know. He even gave me a bunch of gifts today, he's really sweet.

At this point the person on the other side of the phone squealed so loud her voice was clearly audible for anyone to hear over the phone.

" I told you! You guys are a perfect match, bring him home sometime in the future."

"Mom! What are you saying! We're just roommates."

"Besides we technically don't even share a room, so we can't even be called roommates... is more like we share the same home..."

Turns out Ana was talking to her mom, and when it got to be about Michael and her living situation she didn't know how to explain further and started turning beet red.

"Hahah, silly child, alright i'll stop, Now let's talk about serious issues."

"Mom!, Mom!, stop!"

"Don't speak further, I don't want to think about it for now."

"Sweetheart! This is really important. If you don't think about it now, there might not be a way for you in the future."

"I ...know... I'll think about it."

The later half of their conversation wasn't easy to understand for the ears of outsiders for its meaning was unknown.

But it left Ana going to bed in a very depressed mood. If any one were to be present at this moment, they would find tears streaming down Ana's cheeks as she slept. It was a truly heartbreaking sight to see.
