'You're called Irregular System? and Why is your tier, '???' ?' Seal asked curiously. Since it does not match any tiers that he knows of.
『I am indeed called the Irregular System. Tier ??? means that the system is unknown and immeasurable. As I said earlier, I am an exclusive system only to be used by you.』
'Only used by me?'
『Host is special, as I was born along with the host. Unlike other systems, I never look for my host.』
'So that was why my body was glowing red. That was you?'
『Indeed.』
'So why do I have a lot of skills?'
『Answering, some skills were given by the system, but the host had some skills back on Earth.』
'Oh, thank you.' He thanked the system as he ponders what to do next.
『Host, I recommend you open the starter-pack』
'Un, open it.'
『DING! The host has received the following things:
＞{Limitless Abnormal} (Exclusive) title
＞Space-and-Time Magic
＞+100 to all stats except Luck and Charm
All items will be in the inventory.』
'Wait. What does the title give me?'
『The {Limitless Abnormal} title will give you a skill called «Skill Absorption». The skill enables the holder to take any skills from any being you defeat. Next, the holder will have to go through a one-time body reconstruction process for the title to be soul-bound with you. Finally, there will be no limit to the holder's growth, and your body will change a lot. Each stat will get +500 every level up.』
'Okay, equip it.'
『Warning, there will be a lot of pain coming as host's body will break down and reconstruct itself. The system recommends the host brace himself. The bounding process will now start.』
... 10 seconds later~
"Eh? Where's the pa—AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" Seal was about to ask the system, but sudden intense pain hits him all over the body. His skin felt as if being butchered. He screamed at the top of his lungs as he rolled around, getting dirt all over him and his clothing. If one were to look at Seal now, they would be horrified at the sight before them. He was dyed dark red, just like blood. His bones were breaking and then reconstructing themselves, and so did his skin. His hair started falling off, then it starts regrowing.
He continued rolling around, screaming for hours, wishing it would stop. Until he finally fell unconscious as he could not endure it anymore.
========
Early in the morning, a figure can be seen lying lifelessly on the ground. His clothes soaked with blood. Suddenly, his fingers twitched as his eyelids slowly open.
"Ahhh, my entire body hurts... W-what happened system? And how long have I been out?" He softly said while struggling to get up from the ground. Eventually, he was able to get up from the ground.
『The host lost consciousness yesterday because you could not handle the immense pain. Host has been out for 1 whole day.』
'I see... So I passed out huh, WAIT! Did you say I passed out for exactly 1 day?!' Seal was utterly dumbfounded. He had always thought his pain tolerance was great. He would not flinch when cut with a knife or when fingers are getting crushed. But now he knew, crushed fingers and cuts are nothing compared to your entire body breaking down.
『Yes, although the host did have good pain tolerance. It was not enough, host needed at least «Pain Resistance Lv. 7» to not pass out.』
'Did have?'
『The reconstruction process had changed your entire body and appearance. It got rid of all your resistances, even pain. If the host checks your stats, you would find a massive boost in it but some skills will be missing.』
'Let me check. Status.'

'Umu, so care to explain why my race is 'Human?'...? Pretty sure I AM human.'
『...Unknown.』
"WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN 'UNKNOWN'?!" He screamed out loud, alerting nearby monsters. Am I becoming a monster!?!
『Chill host, I don't know because the title is still changing your bloodline and race. I forgot to mention that before but do not worry, you will still look human. I will tell you when your bloodline and race has finish changing.』
'Oh thank god, I was worried I would become a monster and lose my little brother' He said while wiping sweat off his forehead. He did not want to ever lose his precious little brother.
『...』
'Anyways, why is my charm infinite?!'
『The host's appearance changed. You became the perfect male.』The system said while a big mirror appeared in front of Seal.
Seal looked at himself in the mirror, being surprised at his reflection. The reflection of him had the darkest hair with sharper red eyes, and a perfect body with no excess fat while his skin became whiter. His hair grew longer in the back, almost reaching the base of his neck, and he grew to 183 cm. Seal wanted to believe this wasn't him but reality says otherwise.
'A perfect male indeed... This is going to bring a lot of troubles isn't it.' Seal sighed inwardly.
'Hey system, how do I level up?'
『By defeating monsters, you can also get experience by killing humans but it is not recommended.』
'Hm... Okay, where is the nearest monster?'
『Ding! Bringing up the map...』
A map popped up in front Seal, showing red dots all around him. Making the map only showing monsters around his level, he picked and ran for the closest one which was 3 miles away from him. While he was running there, he noticed that he now can run 1 mile in 2 minutes.
Arriving at the monster's location a few minutes later, he heard multiple monster voices as he stayed alerted.
'There's a shop feature, right? Buy me a knife from the shop, system.'
『Ding! Deducting 5 system points to buy [Basic Knife]. 4,995 system points remaining.』
A metal knife appeared on Seal's hand. He slowly walked towards the sound, making sure to not alert the monsters with any loud movement.
The sound got clearer, now Seal can clearly see the monsters. They were a group of goblins holding clubs. He hid behind a tree when using his «Appraisal» skill, he checks the monsters' status.

All of them had the same status, not surprising.
『Ding! A new quest has been issued.』
『 Quest: Goblin Hunter!
Details: Kill 5 goblins.
Reward: Rare Lottery Ticket, and 200 system points.
Failure: None 』
'Quest? Is it random?' Seal said to the system.
『Yes.』
While Seal was talking to the system inside his head, the group 5 goblins started moving. Seeing that, he stopped talking and rushed out from his hiding place. The goblins were alerted as they saw Seal rushing at them, but it was to late when he got behind one goblin and slid its neck.
+2 Experience...
Then he dashed to the next goblin, and stabbing it in the neck. He then threw the dead goblin body at its friends, and blinding them with it.
+2 Exp...
+2 Exp...
...
[Level up!]
[All stats +500]
[Skill Absorption is activated]
...
[Skill absorbed!]
『Quest Completed. The host has been rewarded.』
After 2 minutes, he managed to kill them all. Taking a breath, he walks over to the dead goblin body, checking if any loot dropped. Skimming through all the items, he didn't find anything worthy. Some weapons but they're broken, and goblins ears. Well, he decided to keep the goblin ears, and selling them for money when he finds a town or city.
*Clank!* *Clank!*
'System buy me anything that can hide my identity. Quick.' He said to the system as he stored all the loot inside his system's inventory.
『Ding! Deducting 30 system points to buy the first item that can hide the host's identity. [Leather Cloak] has been obtained. 5,165 system points remaining.』
'A cloak? I was thinking more of a mask but whatever.' Seal thought as a leather cloak appeared in his hand.
He wore it and ran north, towards where the voice came from.
'I hope whoever is fighting over there is alright' He said to himself while he ran with even more speed.
