8. New features

That message came with a surprise. Elizabeth was not expecting something like this. "What the?" She was in shock because it was the first time the system had said that something will begin, so far the system was playing around with Liz, not allowing her to do quests and everything. 'What does this mean?' And that's when she was struck by a weird feeling. 'Why am I feeling weaker?' It was normal for a baby to be weak, but ever since Liz came into this world it did not really mean that much, she knew that she was weak and could not do much. But right now it was as if a part of her energy was pulled out by force, she had a hard time breathing but the did not cry, right now she was in no mood to deal with the people that would surround her the second she starts crying.

<[Quests] UNLOCKED: Forced by the user.>

{Goddess of "Life and Death" Is interested in you.}

< +100 GC > (Gold coin.)

{God of "Balance" Is interested in you.}

< +100 GC >

"What the f***!?" Messages that appeared after the [Quest] log surprised the sh*t out of Liz, 'I knew that this world was not normal but. GODS?!' It looked as if her spirit was going to leave her little peanut sized body. 'I mean, if they are surprised in me... That means they won't do anything to me right?'

<[SUDDEN QUEST]: Collect the souls of 10 orcs.>

'Awww man, I don't even know how to react at this point. How THE heck am i supposed to collect souls of orcs?!'

{Goddess of "Life and Death" has a gift for you.}

Will you accept the offer?

<Accept> <Refuse>

'I mean if its a gift from the gods, it should help me with my current situation right?' Without thinking about it for a little longer Liz raised her stick, I mean her arm and pressed on the accept button.

<Gift accepted>

<Skill learned: SOUL COLLECTOR.>

<Title earned: Pet of a goddess.>

{Other gods are slightly interested in you. But after seeing how old you are they quickly lost interest.}

"Well, I don't really care about others. Anyways, what is this skill that just came."

Status>Skill tree> SOUL COLLECTOR

It was a skill that was not in the skill tree and it was staying alone on the other side of the screen.

<SOUL COLLCECTOR> <Lvl 01> : [This skill allows the user to collect the souls of the weak and the dead. Every time the user collects a soul 5% of their stats come and fuse itself with the user. The more you use this skill the stronger it will get. (Skill can only collect the soul from the dead at the moment. Level up the skill in order to collect the soul from the weak, eventually you will be able to collect the soul without even doing anything.) <5 MC >: greater the enemy the more MC the cost is.

"Holy moly, this skill sounds broken. So in the future I will be able to steal the soul of someone just by staring at them. Pfft! I never thought I would become something like this. I can't wait to test this skill out. Hm, the skill need 5 MC to be activated. I have 4 at the moment. But getting 5 is no big deal." At that moment something caught Liz's attention. Inside her vision on top right there was a flying screen. That did not close, and when she closer she saw that it was the quest.

<Collect orc souls. 0/10>

"Damn, they really want me to do this huh?' Liz thought to herself. "Well, before looking for orcs (Not that I can or something) I need to get my MC up to 5. Its no big deal." Liz gave a proud laugh as she thought about that, At night instead of sleeping Liz spent 4 hours experimenting on her MC cultivation. When she cultivated her body recovered energy so she was trying out new stuff as she was recovering energy. Eventually she found out a way to cultivate without bringing a lot of attention to herself. Since it was her #1 problem in this world, she could do only one thing to get stronger at the moment but she could not even do that with people around.

Instead of crossing her hands and legs like how she usually did. She did something else. She kept her legs as if she was kneeling on the ground, and with her hands she hold them together with her fingers. And suddenly energy started gathering in both her palms, 'Its my first time actually trying this, I didn't have time to check it out last night, I hope it works out.

At that moment energy started to gather around her palms, no one could detect it unless they had a high level detecting skill, And since her hands were under the blanket no one cared about what the baby did. They al thought that she was just sleeping peacefully.

'Alright! Now lets get into the dark room.' Liz focused and eventually like the last time she ended up in the dark room. But there was something different abut this room this time. She did not feel a single dust coming down from above and in the middle she did not see herself. There was nothing there. She came closer to the middle. And focused more. Her head was starting to hurt and just then a figure popped out from the shadows.

The figure was pitch black and had a white aura surrounding it, which was the reason why Liz could see it. The figure then opened its arms and its body started to change, as that was happening the room started t shake as well, the next second Liz found herself above the clouds. "Beautiful." Liz thought, it was indeed a beautiful view.

In the middle stood a weird figure. It was half white and half black. Liz calmed down and started focusing on the figure. "Wow, this feels a lot different from the last time. I don't remember the tutorial mentioning this part. Perhaps its something that I did?" Instead of collecting mana souls from the air it felt like she was absorbing the world into the figure. Living energy into the white part and lifeless energy into the black one. And just like last time, without realizing she cultivated for 4 hours.

She was forced to wake up, it was time for her to eat. Liz was completely fine about this. Even though she heard several *Dings* She did not check the system, she was hungry as well, after all cultivating consumes physical energy to create life energy.

"That was one high quality milk, I enjoyed it." After eating and feeling satisfied she was put down on a bed inside the carriage. Everyone had already set up the tents and it looked like they were going to spend the night in the forest. And the reason to that was Brian, he did not want her daughter to feel uncomfortable while having a good nights sleep. 'Damn bro, I spent the whole afternoon like that does this really matter?' Liz thought with a disappointed face on her.

'Well now that I am completely alone, I better check out the system.' And the first thing Liz saw made her almost vomit the 'high quality milk' she had earlier.

<New cultivation acquired.>

<Yin&Yang learned.>

<+500 EXP>

'What the mother of potatoes?!' Without thinking twice Liz opened her status and went to the skill tree. But she could not find this cultivation in here. But something caught her eyes when she was going through everything to find about the Yin&Yang.

"17 Points in MC?!" She could not take this many surprises at the same time, she just wanted to get it to 5, but getting it this up was not normal.

{God of "Balance" Is happy with your discovery.}

< +150 GC >

At that moment while looking at the floating screen in front of her she felt a huge energy rushing through her body. "Is this because of the MC points?!" She could barely fight it, her little body was going to break. She wanted to cry but she couldn't. But the next second the pain was completely cut and when she opened her eyes she was welcomed by a innocent, charming voice.

"Well hello there." Liz could not see the person but she heard her giggling and the next second without getting the chance to see the person that was talking to her she was sleeping peacefully.
