Power from cake?

"Hahahahaha…" Tyler was laughing his ass off.

He was laughing so hard that even his mouth hurt. If there was anyone else near him, they sure will think he turned lunatic because this laughing was going on for a couple of minutes.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING!!!" He then calmed down.

"For everyone its dream come true, well…this is simply incredible."

A big smile can be seen on his face.

****

A few minutes before.

Tyler slowly stood up from the floor after his sleep. It was already morning. He started massaging his temples, his memory is fuzzy. Slowly the clouds cleared in his mind.

'sign…'

"Is this true?" Tyler was sure the pain he experienced yesterday was true, but this cannot be explained. Just remembering the pain gives chills in his spine.

"It sure was painful, so I started imagining about something like a system in my head. I sure should reduce reading these novels." Tyler muttered.

Tyler sure is kind of obsessed with novels with the system. Even if a few novels are trash, he likes it because of the system, but sure there many superb novels due to the system too.

Just when he was about to put the topic about the system in the back of his head and start thinking about the pain, he experienced. He heard the same familiar voice in his head.

[Good morning host]

When Tyler heard this, he stood rooted to the ground. He was utterly shocked to the core. He was thinking whether he was still imagining things, but he was sure he heard the voice from his head.

Slowly he replied with a questionable tone.

"Aaaahh…good morning?" Tyler continued.

"Are you a system?" he questioned.

[Yes, you can consider me like that.]

After hearing the reply, Tyler is sure this not imagination- this is something which is happening right now in a real-world, that to it's happening to him.

"Hahahahahahaha…" sound of laugh is echoing inside the apartment. After a few minutes.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING!!!"

"For everyone its dream come true, well…this is simply incredible."

"I am goddam lucky…so I can consider this as my birthday present."

Though Tyler is happy- he is not stupid, for him to be given a free meal there has to be a reason and the question is how did he get this opportunity.

"Was it the cake? Well…if it is the cake that's weird." Tyler got the headache after he ate the cake, so he thought this may be due to the cake.

"hmmm…it's better to ask the system. Hey, system…I can call you system, right?"

[Host can call me as he deems fit.]

Tyler thought whether this system is a person or just an advanced A.I, it feels like he is having a conversation with a person. But Tyler decided to put this topic aside and first ask this so-called system a few questions which are bugging him.

'Cough…cough.' Tyler coughed and continued.

���So, system, did I get this well…what should I call it- this opportunity because I ate my birthday cake?"

When Tyler asked his question, there was a long silence.

'Did the system get what I am asking?' Tyler thought.

[I understood the question host is asking, but I am amazed how wild your imagination goes. I am sure it is above the heavens.]

When Tyler heard the response from the system- he was ashamed, he sure will dig up a hole and bury himself to avoid the shame. That was a stupid question he asked.

"Wait you can read my thoughts? Just now I thought in my mind whether you understood the question."

[Yes, I can read your mind. If not people sure will think you are a retard for speaking out loud in front of them. Even if we are having a conversation, for people observing- what all they see is you speaking to yourself. It's convenient to have our conversation in your head so they won't think you have any problem in your head. So, me reading your thoughts can be considered a good thing and no you didn't get this opportunity from eating the cake- well I will not call this opportunity…you will get to know more about it in future and why you got this.]

"Even it's a good thing, I will have no privacy…Aaaaahhhhhhh and what was the thing about knowing more about it in future, why not now?" Tyler was crying over his invasion of privacy and not knowing why he is in this situation.

'Well getting a system means I am lucky like the male leads in the novels I read.'

"Then are you a person, like do you have a soul or are you just like a System- similar to an A.I ?"

For Tyler, having a conversation with the system is like talking with a real person.

[Host is still not qualified to know the answer.]

"What!! I am not qualified?- then when or how will I become qualified to get the answers?"

[Host will be qualified when the host will become qualified. Like becoming powerful- Host will become qualified soon enough. So, the system suggests to host not to worry over this topic.]

"Okay…then what should I do? Should I become powerful, but how?"

[Host need not worry over these insignificant things. The system will guide the host.]

"Then are you similar to ones from the novels?'

[For the host to understand, you can consider it that way. But I am much more capable. When compared to capability's, they are like mortal and I am a heavenly being.]

Tyler felt the system was boasting about itself.

Tyler is mature for his age and good at analysing things, so did not want to make things complex. He decided to take things slow and he is sure the system is not a threat because something like this unnatural can easily eliminate him and its similar like the ones from the novels. He sure is lucky.

Come to think of it, Tyler remembered before he fainted the system told that he awakened successfully. So, this opportunity he got is due to him being special and this had something to do with him turning 18- but he is not sure.

So, Tyler decided to ask the system.
