13 Hostess of Fertility
Laying back on his bed, Alex explored the system as he was still resting at this moment. Exploring the items and some skills listed in the shops, he discovered the ratings that the system uses.
(System Rating:
E - Normal
D - Uncommon
C - Rare
B - Epic
A - Hero
S - Legendary)
The list of ratings contains the common ratings from the lowest to the highest rating. The higher the rating, the more powerful, difficult or potential is the rated one.
E or Normal is the most common rating for items and skills that have the font color white. Followed with D or Uncommon that have the font color of green.
The C or rare grade indicates that something is better than uncommon but worse than epic. In the case of general equipment items, the value of rare-rated items exceeds the value of uncommon-rated items by a factor of three and with a font color of blue.
With a font color in violet, B or epic rating is better than the rare-rated items but not as good as the hero-rated. In the case of general equipment items, the value of epic-rated items would be seven times more expensive than normal-rated items
Hero and Legendary items were self explanatory. These ratings were to simply put, were way better than the rest of the ratings and Alex didn't really hoped to have.
Hero were in a font color of red while Legendary in a font of orange or gold. He also discovered that he could gain points by simply having enough amount of valis as 1 valis is equivalent to 1 point in the system.
Also just like vice versa, Alex could also convert the points to valis which was a very useful function for him in the future. After browsing the system for a while, he got a basic understanding about this Akashic System.

Out of curiosity, Alex decided to inspect his weapons as he wanted to see how the system graded his items.

[Refined Short Sword]

"Just like what I expected, the weapons were normal rated."
Alex mumbles satisfying his curiosity but his heart sunked down for a moment seeing the durability of the blades. Just a little more and the weapons will break which might have caused him some troubles if he fought longer in the dungeon with his weapons.
As Alex was about to stroll in Orario, he was reminded of the first system windows he had seen earlier.
"Did the system said something about a pet?"
As Alex was wondering, he felt some flactuation in the air and looked upwards in front of him. Staring at it, he could see something that being summoned.
It didn't took long for a cat which is grayish black in color. It didn't look special but simply looked like a regular cat. If not for the system panel in front of him, Alex might have believed that it was just a simple kitten that has strayed into his room.

"This is my pet?"
Alex absentmindly muttered as he could not really believe it. Looking at the rating, it was said that this cat in front of him was a legendary celestial cat.
The ratings of the skills might be low for a legendary pet, but Alex guessed that it was because it was still new cat or a kitten so its natural for it to be like this. He could feel that he should just raise the skill levels and he might be able to raise the ratings.
Meow!
As Alex was in the middle of thinking, the kitten rubbed its tiny head into him as it made a satisfied purring sound. Carefully grabbing it, Alex found it cute as its fur was thick and silky.
Carassing the kitten with his finger, it made a satisfied gesture indicating it felt comfortable. As Alex was thinking of how cute this kitten is, he remembered the other thing.
"Perfect Status Immunity was it?"
As soon as those words left his mouth, a hologram appeared in front of him.
[Perfect Status Immunity Lv.Max]
Rating: Legendary
[* Abnormal conditions will no longer work and effect on you.]
Alex held his breath as he was surprised on seeing this. Many applications of the skill immediately came into his mind. Unlike what other adventurers' development abilities like Abnormal Resistance which negates the effect of abnormalities to a certain extent such as poisoned, bleeding, slowed, burned, and many other more, Alex didn't have to worry about suffering any abnormal conditiones anymore like being cursed or even the thing that he always tried to avoid in the dungeon, Mind Zero.
With these, he might drain the Mind in his body, but he would no longer going to be affected by mind zero which lessened his worry to a great extent. Feeling glad and satisfied with the system, Alex decided to go outside and treat himself somewhere in Orario.
Wondering where he should go, he remembered a certain place in Orario that is one of the most famous places in the City due to its all-women staff and incredible food.
Exiting the cafe after saying farewell at Kronos who gladly let him enjoy his rest, Alex left his house with the cute kitten laying on his shoulder.
After nearly half an hour traveling by foot, Alex finally arrived at the 'Hostess of Fertility'. It boasted a size similar to the Guild office, and also had three floors that seemed capable of housing hundreds of guests with ease. Alex could smell a captivating aroma escaping the slightly ajar double-doors.
With a rising anticipation, he entered through the doors and was immediately welcomed.
"Welcome to the Hostess of Fertility~nya."
Alex looked towards the voice and saw a waitress that has a green eyes and black hair with cat ears and a tail of the same color, smiling at him with a dangerous look in her eyes. She seemed rather petite at 158cm but was still slightly taller than he was. Her aura was a mixture of yellow surrounded by an almost illusory pink.
"Nyaa~? It's not nice to stare Mr. Customer~" She seemed to be admonishing him, but the smile on her face grew to the point it reached her eyes causing her to squint slightly.
Snapping out of his stupor, Alex gave a polite nod before saying, "Sorry about that miss. And yes, I'd like to dine-in for lunch. I've heard great things about this restaurant and had to experience it for myself."
While guiding him towards an area near the bar she couldn't help but ask, "What great things have you heard~nya?"
Without thinking about his response, Alex replied, "They say this place has cute women and great food." Immediately after the words left his mouth, he felt a slight shiver down his spine.
"Cute women~nya? Does that include me?" She gave him her most playful look as she put her finger to her chin and tilted her head.
Alex didn't know why, but he felt a sense of danger in the look as he noticed the aura around her become a deeper shade.
Suddenly, he sensed an intense gaze from someone with unknown intention. After continuesly fighting for three days straight, his instincts had drastically sharpen just lower than Minato and Itachi's level in their prime. With his sharp instinct, he turned towards the source.
It was a human girl with bluish gray hair that she kept tied with a small knot in a ponytail style. Her eyes were the same as her hair and she has a light peachy smoothed color skin. She was also wearing the uniform of the Hostess of Fertility.
She blushed and quickly looked away but Alex managed to see her face clearly. As Alex had turned his attention towards her, a voice snapped him out of his daze.
"It's so cute!"
Turning his attention back at the front, the beautiful waitress was staring intently at the kitten on his shoulder. If not for it comfortably laying on his shoulder, she might have grabbed it already.
Will my new partner be in trouble? Alex wondered in his mind as he sensed the kitten flinched when it noticed that someone was looking at itself.
