Grandpa System (Part Three)

The blue screen was similar to the one he had, but this one contained information regarding the ring.

[Name: Father's Love Ring

Rank: 10 (broken)

User: Hazel Larson

Description: A celestial blacksmith made this ring for his son's birthday, but his son died on his birthday, and this ring was broken before it could help his son. Broken but can be repaired.

Effect 1: Inner Wish System. The ring responds to the user's inner desire and gives them a powerful system that's suitable for them in the path of getting stronger.

Effect 2: Rebirth. A rank nine spell that allows the user to resurrect themselves when they die. (Unavailable)

Effect 3: Grand Spirit Guardian Contract. A rank right spell that allows the user to make a contract with a level 80 and above spirit. (Unavailable)

Effect 4: ....]

The list of effects continued, but they were all unavailable, except for the first effect and the last effect.

[Effect 11: Limit Breaker. A rank zero spell, but a really popular spell even among celestials. It is still useful even if the user reaches a high level. This spell allows the user to break past the limit of their potential when they train hard, increasing the chance to raise the user's stats grade.]

Hazel felt like this was a dream. It was too good to be true. He came to this mountain with little expectation of the result. He would be content if he could progress a little, but he never dreamt about getting a golden egg like this. This ring was his golden egg, so he would use it for himself.

After becoming the user of the ring, Hazel immediately knew how to activate the ring's effects. [Limit Breaker] was a passive effect, so it was always active, but he had to activate the [Inner Wish System] manually. All he had to do was to say, "[Inner Wish System] active!" Or he could just wish it to activate without saying it, and the effect would occur.

[Activating Inner Wish System!]

[Integrating the system with the user's soul.]

[Inner wish is detected!]

[Showing the user's inner wish.]

In front of him, his original system appeared, but something happened to it. His own system experienced a change after the ring's first effect was integrated with his soul. Hazel felt like he could use the ring's first effect even without the ring.

Hazel was excited to see his brand new system. He eagerly waited for the fuzzy screen to become clear. After a while, the screen became clear, and he could see it. However, he widened his eyes in surprise because his inner wish was something that he couldn't proudly say in public.

[Name: Harem System

Description: The user's inner wish is to marry multiple women, so the system will help the user to conquer women and make them stronger by doing so. When the user conquers women, they will be rewarded with points that can be used at the Harem System Shop.]

When Hazel saw the system, he was embarrassed, but truthfully, he was excited. In this era, polygamy was something that was frowned upon, but was allowed. However, which sane women would allow their partners to have multiple women? No one. That was why he was happy to get something that could help him get multiple women, especially if he became stronger when doing the deeds.

Mircalla sighed when she saw his inner wish. "Men are the same everywhere."

"Do you despise this?"

Mircalla shook her head. "In my world, polygamy is common so not really. I never cared about romance stuff before."

"You never had been in a relationship?" Hazel looked at her astonishingly. This Mircalla was truly different from the succubus demons he often heard about. She was... Pure.

Mircalla looked flustered when he mentioned that. "I-I have been in countless relationships! I have vast experience in romance!"

Hazel put on a dumbfounded expression. Even a kindergarten student wouldn't believe such a blatant lie.

'Huh, she is a virgin? A virgin succubus? Really?' Hazel observed her from her toes to her head. Such a beautiful figure with a bombastic body was a virgin? He wondered what she had been doing in her life to stay pure as a hundred years old woman.

'Does that mean she is single? Maybe I have a chance to get her with this system?' As Hazel imagined himself in a relationship with Mircalla, a system message appeared in the air.

[System Error! The magic artifact is broken! Initializing countermeasures!]

[Warning! The Inner Wish System is invalid! Showing the user's true inner wish!]

[Name: Grandpa System. Description: The user grew up fatherless, so he really, really wants to be pampered by a parent figure. The most touching memory he had about a parent figure was when an old man gave him candy when he was a kid. The old man's kind face is still engraved in the deepest part of his memory.

With this system, the user can get old men's affection easily, and he can become stronger by getting their affection. Restricted to male sex only. Good luck with your journey to get countless old men harem!]

Hazel dropped his jaw when he saw the sudden change. He still couldn't proceed with the change. It was too cruel to be true.

"Uh, is what the system says true? You know, I am not a male, but I can become your older sister if you want," Mircalla said with a pitiable tone. She pitied him.

"What? No? Where is my harem system? This can't be true!" Hazel tried to grab the system window, but his hands passed through the screen. He couldn't touch intangible things, so he shouted in desperation, "Wait, lord system. If you are there, please give me back my harem system!"

"Uh, it is useless, Hazel. The system is not alive. Maybe this is my fault for giving you a broken treasure," Mircalla said. Even in this situation, she didn't mock him. She was truly a priceless girl.

Hazel wiped his tears and coped with the situation. So what if he couldn't get a harem? At least, he got a way to become stronger? Old men? Male? Alright. He would conquer their hearts to become stronger!

And thus he convinced himself, but he still couldn't stop crying.

Mircalla rubbed his back and tried to soothe him. "Good boy, don't cry. Look at the better figure. You can still get stronger with this system. Why don't you check the system's features?"

Hazel nodded amicably and checked the system. He focused on his thoughts, and the system screen changed.

[GRANDPA SYSTEM

User: Hazel Larson

System Level: 1

Affection Point: 0

Special Point: 100

Feature:

1. Grandpa Database

2. System Shop

3. Quest

4. Inventory

5. Ability Research Function]

Hazel took his time to learn about every function in the system. First, [Grandpa Database]. It was only a list of grandfathers he met. At the moment, it was empty. It would be filled automatically when he encountered a grandpa. It sounded like a boring feature, but he could read grandfathers' information and their affection rate. It probably would be useful for him.

[System Shop] was a feature where he could buy many things with affection points and special points. He could buy abilities, magic artifacts, information, etc. Of course, each of these items could only be bought with affection points and special points. There were explanations on where to get those points, but he paid attention to the system features for the moment.

The third function was [Quest]. It was a feature where he could take tasks and get rewarded when completing them. The quests were divided into daily quests, challenge quests, and customized quests.

The next feature was [Inventory]. This was Hazel's personal favorite feature because he could store anything with this feature. The inventory had unlimited storage, but he could only store objects that he could lift.

Lastly, [Ability Research Function] was a feature where he could learn grandpas' abilities. However, he could only learn abilities from grandpas who had high affection for him.

At the moment, almost all functions were useless, so he opened a feature he could use.

Hazel opened the [Quest] feature and clicked daily login. After that, the system window appeared.

[You have logged in for the first time! Congratulations! You have obtained 10 system exp and 10 normal exp. You have obtained a Love Potion!]

Hazel was surprised to get an unexpected gift, but he welcomed it. He was curious what he had gotten from the daily login, so he opened his inventory.

The Love Potion stayed on the first slot of the inventory. He extended his hand in the air and willed the item to appear, and a vial of pink liquid appeared in his hand.

The Love Potion was the system's creation, so it was counted as his own creation. With that, he could read the item's description without appraisal ability.

[Name: Causal Breaking Love Potion (Hazel's Collection)

Rank: ?

Description: When a grandpa drinks this potion, their affection rate will be increased to the max. This potion ignores all kinds of resistance abilities. The affected person will feel affection for the user in the most natural way, so no detection ability can detect the affected person's abnormality.]
