Chapter 2

He also saw that the system screen followed him even when he turned his head to the side, which indicated that it was entrenched in his eyes or possibly in his soul, but at the time he was unable to determine which it was.

[Personification: Altair Lockheart]

[Humans are the ancestors]

[Standard Title: None]

[Level: 01]

[HP: 100/100]

[MP: 10/10]

[STR: 10]

[VIT: 10]

[INT: 20]

[DEX: 10]

[LUK: 10]

[Points: 0]

Although Altair was unaware of his present level of strength, he had a sneaking suspicion that a typical human being would have a score of 10 on all of their traits. This was something that he had observed very frequently in the historical accounts that used a system.

He was merely startled by his intellect, but he attributed this amount of 20 points to his prior life, in which he spent a good deal of time reading or thinking about a variety of different subjects. He thought that this was the reason for his intelligence.

Since Altair still required additional information on his status, he made the decision to inquire about it through the system.

"Are you able to provide me with additional information regarding this status page?"

[Understood!]

Before Altair could react, a significant number of screens appeared in his eyes. Each of these panels displayed unique information, which caused him to have a little headache as his brain attempted to process so much data in such a short amount of time.

"At least this system is quick to act," they said. After making this statement, he then started to focus his attention on the newly opened windows of knowledge that were in front of him.

[Mana Points: These are the Mana Points you have. There is a wide range of possibilities for the amount of MP possessed by each lineage. Very few humans have access to mana, and heaven looks down favourably on those who have it.

[HP: These are the points you have left in your life. The amount of health points possessed by a person can differ depending on their genealogy; nonetheless, as a Human, your HP is equal to 10 times your VIT.

[STR: These are your physical abilities (strength, endurance, longevity, durability, healing time, and combat abilities)] [CAP: These are your mental talents (intelligence, willpower, and cunning)]

[[VIT]] refers to your vitality, which encompasses your mental, spiritual, emotional, and sexual wellness.

[[INT: What is your intellect (ability to memorise, learn, process information, deduce, and reason)]]

Your dexterity can be measured by your agility, flexibility, reflexes, senses, speed, accuracy, and bodily coordination. [[DEX: Is Your Dexterity]]

[LUK: You can thank your lucky stars. This will make your life easier, make you happier, and increase your performance in all areas of it, including work, social life, sexual life, personal life, financial life, and school. In short, your life as a whole will improve.

Altair was quite pleased by the information he heard, particularly the knowledge regarding Mana Points because it demonstrated that humans were probably the weakest race in the supernatural realm. This information left Altair with a sense of admiration.

''So I am someone blessed by heaven? That strikes me as kind of hilarious, if I may say so...'' Altair recalled that God in this world had passed away, and that the sky that the Angels currently control is most likely in a complete mess. This was to the point that in the future, this would bring several problems, in addition to the fact that things that would normally be impossible would happen because of the mess that the sky is currently in. In other words, the mess that the sky is currently in would cause things to happen that would normally be impossible.

Another thing that got Altair thinking was the fact that there were hierarchies within the races themselves. For instance, devils were separated into various classes, with Low Class Devils being the least powerful and Ultimate Class Devils being the most powerful. This got Altair thinking about how the races were structured.

He remembered very clearly the differences between creatures of the same class, such as how Rias, who was several times weaker than Riser, despite both being High Class Devils, was an example of this. Of course, he knew that these classifications couldn't normally convey their degree of strength, because he remembered very well the differences between beings of the same class.

And this hierarchy was only going to get more confused in the future, since Issei would show up in the future and fight Riser, who was an Upper Class Devil, despite the fact that he himself was only a Lower Class Devil.

Altair came to the conclusion that he would give these questions of hierarchy some thought in the future because, at this moment, there was only one item that was important to him, and that was a beginning pack.

When he read stories in his past life that involved a system, he recalled that the protagonists always received a starter pack, which would help him insert himself into the world he was in. As a result, Altair wished that he could also receive a starter pack, as he was unsure of his ability to become involved in this disorderly world without any kind of assistance at first.

[In response to the host, you say that you have a starter pack in your inventory]

[Would you like me to open it for you?]

[Yes] [No]

Even though it was weird, Altair promptly clicked the button that said "Yes," even though for individuals who weren't seeing the system screen, Altair would have simply pressed the blank in front of him. Altair didn't have to think much about it because it was already written on the button.

[You have progressed to skill level 03!]

[You have got 100 points!]

[Body of the Player]

- Level: Max

Provides the user with a body that enables them to experience the actual world as though it were a game.

(Mind of the Player)

- Level: Max.

- Description: Enables the user to think rationally and calmly about the circumstances they find themselves in. It makes it possible to achieve a condition of mental serenity and provides immunity against the effects of psychology.

This is the [Gate of Babylon].

- Level: 01

Description: This is the Treasury that King Gilgamesh of Uruk kept in his palace. The "Divine Gate" is the name given to the warehouse that Gilgamesh constructed in order to hold all of the treasures of the world that he had amassed throughout his life. It creates a connection between the vault and actual space, so unlocking a "invisible door" between dimensions through which the contents of the vault can move at the owner's beck and call. The user has the ability to select which treasure items they want to utilise and how they want to use them when simple access to those goods is provided. It is a talent that grows more potent in proportion to the user's riches; nevertheless, if the user does not possess a significant amount of treasures, this talent will be of little use.

The effect of this ability grants the user the ability to call forth items directly into his hands, draw weapons immediately behind them, or prepare numerous weapons at once in the air, loading them up like bullets. Because Babylon has grown to be known as both the "Capital of Sin" and the "Capital of Gold," this ability was given its name based on those two phrases.

"Things just got more interesting," said the narrator. Altair's face broke into a sardonic grin as he took in his most recent ability.

The first two skills did not come as much of a surprise to him; on the contrary, he had already anticipated that something similar would be required of him.

However, this final talent, the Gate of Babylon, came as a complete and utter shock to Altair, but it was also an exceedingly welcome one.
