13 Chapter 12: Just a normal day

(Authors note: I already added this note on the Canon Omake end but I would repost it anyway because someone might have missed it. This is where Alexander's System came from as God did not give him the System.

So basically as God dropped MC at the same place Traveler was supposed to fish out Paimon.

Let us say that place is a "Fated" location as the world will of Teyvat deems that place as the protagonist start of the story.

With the MC ending up in the Fated place, while unconscious his soul Adapted the System the Traveler was supposed to have.

That is also the reason for someone with an Adaptive talent to have a mismatched System that is currently just limiting his Adaptation from reaching its full potential (The number type System is limiting his growth, it is only temporary don't panic and cry nerf on me).

The reason MC did not obtain the map is that I will not implement the waypoint System. Traveller will use another method to fast Travel.

Anyway, this is just an extra chapter describing MCs daily life. The next chapter will focus more on the plot so for now be content with this XD)

(Alexander POV)

Two days passed after sending Chloe back to their camp with me not resting and only continued grinding nonstop. My body and mind might be exhausted but I will keep pushing it to continue adapting.

'Having a lot of stamina would be a great advantage when it comes to fighting.' I said to myself as I continued to push myself to grind and adapt my body to the perfect being I envisioned to be.

After turning another group of Hilichurls to ashes, I continued my exploration as I journeyed traveling toward the western side of Dragonspine.

After a few hours of walking around, I discovered an area filled with trees with white-colored leaves which surprised me.

The temperature in Dragonspine was disastrous so I did not expect to encounter much living flora or fauna making the scene of a forest full of trees piqued my curiosity. I walked towards the forest filled with a tree I had not seen in the game.

The tree had white bark and leaves making it look unique and gorgeous.

I continued my admiration for nature's work of art before I noticed a fruit on another similar tree.

I took the fruit and inspected it carefully.

The fruit had a circular shape like an orange but was colored white with a few lines of blue.

I sliced the fruit with the 3s weapon the Harbinger of Dawn and inspected the inside of it. What I saw made me curious as this small white orange-sized fruit contains something like the insides of a watermelon with the only difference being that this is colored blue and has no seeds.

While I am not sure if the fruit is edible or poisonous I decided to take a bite as I believe a little bit of poison would not kill me and would only help my body adapt to such things.

The fruit's outer layer was impeccably crunchy. Like damn, that was the best crunch sound I had ever heard coming from food. While the insides were like a frosty, a grape-flavored frosty to be exact.

So the orange-shaped and size fruit, with a watermelon-like inside tastes like grape frosty. "Seems legit" I muttered out loud.

As I never saw this fruit in the game I would simply call it frosty fruit.

The frosty fruit was a superb dessert so I planned to harvest as many as I could.

I started Yoinking the fruits from the trees as I slowly felt my stomach freezing as the second passed but after a few seconds of enduring the coldness from my stomach, my adaptation started doing its job as the coldness started to fade.

'So the fruit was dangerous when consumed. Or I am eating it wrong as it still needed to be processed?' I thought to myself as I continued taking more of the fruit. Even if it turns out to be inedible to other humans I am capable of eating it and it tastes good so why not? I then spent another few more hours collecting the frosty fruits before I decided it was enough.

For the first time since I arrived at Dragonspine, I decided to take a break and take a nap.

******************************

(Alexander POV)

As I opened my eyes, all I saw was darkness. After a few seconds of confusion, I remembered that I buried myself a few feet under the snow as I could not find a safe place to rest.

I then dug the snow while slowly placing it inside the inventory in order to get out.

As I stretched my body after getting out, I noticed the moon was already out. Today, I planned to go back to where I first saw Chloe and implement my plan.

As I started walking toward the direction of the river, I opened the System to view my current status.

'The two days of nonstop fighting made me level up quite a lot.' I said to myself while admiring the fruit of my hard work. Leveling Over 30 times might sound huge but it is actually not, as the lower level you are the faster you level up.

'I wonder how long it would take to reach 90' My thoughts wandered as I stared at the status page.

I then noticed a (+) icon beside the adaptation so I decided to click on it.

-Projectile Immunity (5/10)

'So the System finally decided to show the things I have adapted.' I nodded to myself as I admired my status. I then continued my pandering of what things I should do to get stronger while striding towards the area where I saved Chloe from the Frostarm Lawachurl.
