[Chapter:6][Making plans]

"Mother!" "You're here!"

"Ah, you two stick to little Al again?"

A beautiful maiden looked back as she heard her two daughters call her, and sighed at the sight that greeted her eyes.

"You two, don't disturb your big brother. Unlike you that only know how to play, your big brother Al is busy."

She separated her daughters from Al, making them pout, before gently rubbing his head.

"Hello Aunt Xia. How are you?"

"I'm fine thanks to you, Little Al."

Aunt Xia, a fairly tall woman with fair skin, long, straight black hair, and a pair of amethyst eyes which both her daughters inherited, gave Al a small smile as she hugged him gently.

As a widow with two daughters, she had to work exceptionally hard, or would have had to, if not for Al letting Old Jack give her an easy yet important job of teaching the little kids to read and write.

And Xia Wuting had always been grateful for him for that.

Xia Wuting | Affection : 81

((You know, at the rate at which it's increasing, she might pounce on you the day you grow tall enough to reach her breasts. And if you learn [Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer], that won't be too long away.))

'Shut up El.'

Looking at the beautiful woman's eyes, which showed an expression similar to what her daughters showed him whenever they see him, Al felt his lips twitch.

'As expected, maxing out relations really is dangerous if I don't carefully select who I want to relate with.'

Of course, he would have no problem if someone beautiful and gentle like the woman before him would want to be in a relationship with him.

But at the moment, he had three problems.

One, as young as he was, his 'little brother' was really 'little', like, smaller than an adult's thumb.

((Fufufu~~))

'Shut it El.'

As for the second and third problems, they were looking at the embracing woman and child with clearly envious eyes.

Xia Yue | Affection : 93

Xia Yan | Affection : 93

((You've already made the frameworks of your future harem, and the first members are a mother and her twin daughters~~! How exciting~~!))

'…'

Al didn't even bother retorting anymore as he sighed softly.

"Aunt Xia, I'll go back home to call Grandpa. Can you and the others prepare the tables? Aunt Meng should have gone to bring second grandpa and second grandma."

"Of course dear. Be back soon."

She smiled as she rubbed his head and gave his cheek a kiss which was dangerously close to his lips.

'…'

((Pff! Hahaha! You should look at your expression!))

Looking at her affection which went from 81 to 82, Al felt speechless before shaking his head.

Running back to the former little shack which could now be called a genuine house, thanks to the agriculture in the village literally booming with his 'Old Farmer' perk, Al called out loud,

"Grandpa Jack! Everyone in the village is waiting for you!"

"Oh oh, I'm coming Grandson, I'm coming! These old bones of mine don't move as fast as they used to oh!"

Al looked at his grandpa, whom he came to consider his family through the past four years, and smiled.

'Soon, grandpa. With Tang San in my palms, I can let you become strong and young too. And you're dream of becoming a Spirit Master and even a Spirit Saint wouldn't be a dream anymore.'

Rushing into his room, Al quickly closed the door as he brought out his pen and paper.

'Let's see…with 'Perfect Memory', I can perfectly remember all the protagonists skills…'

Al began to write all the skills Tang San possessed in the paper.

Mysterious Heaven Skill : Trains Inner Strength / Spirit Power, resists poisons and toxins, and improves healing factor.

Purple Demon Eye : Improves vision, mental strength, quickens perception greatly, shatters visual based illusions, helps perceiving Spirit Power and identifying 100,000 year old Spirit Beasts, attack using mental / spiritual shocks which Tang San named 'Purple God Light', and at the highest, opens the 'Minds Eye'.

Mysterious Jade Hand : Causes the palm of the hand to become extremely tough and tensile, can obstruct any poison, and allows one to forge weapons without any damage to their arms.

Controlling Crane Catching Dragon : A method of improving his coordination and strength, a grappling technique, and when combined with spirit power, can also manipulate objects at a distance.

Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track : A movement and balance technique that allows one to move with extreme speed and traverse difficult terrains as well as dodge attacks fast enough to leave behind after images.

Hidden Weapon Hundred Separation : Weapon technique for controlling and using different kinds of weapons efficiently, secretly, dextrously, and precisely.

Medical Knowledge, Herbal Knowledge, Poisonous Knowledge, and Blacksmithing Knowledge.

'A total of ten skills…well, I don't need all of them.'

In fact, Al decisively crossed out Blacksmithing Knowledge.

'The other three knowledges…they'll be useful if I ever get hurt or poisoned and need to recover with only the available herbs.'

He also crossed out 'Hidden Weapon Hundred Separation'.

'Hidden Weapons sound cool, but they're not really that useful. Tang San barely used them in fights that actually mattered, and when he did, they were either one time use consumables that he made, like that Lotus thing, or huge ones like those crossbows, or poisonous ones.'

Looking at the eight skills, all of which he would love to learn, Al sighed softly.

'Luckily, those five brats and Yue'er and Yan'er, and Aunt Xia, all would soon give me 8 RP. And as for the 1 RP I'll get from Tang San…I'll use it for 'Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer'. The sooner I train my body, the better anyway.'

Thinking of his future, however…

'I'll have to go to Shrek, for Ning Rongrong and Zhao Wuji. The former has the 'Heart Separation Control' skill, and the latter has the 'King Kong Body' skill, both of which are too useful for me not to learn them.'

As for Nuoding City…

'Well, guess I'll have to go there too. Unfortunately, I have no more chances of getting anymore RP in this village…but the kids in Nuoding Academy should be easy enough to fool *cough* I mean befriend.'

Al still didn't forget one of the major functions of the System.

'Although keeping the skills in constant usage and giving me benefits is good…the best effect of the System is still that…'
