2 I Got A Broken System

Warning:  Intentional Repeated Words... 

...

"Forget about the skill! "There is no profit from frustration so I just let bygones be bygone. 

What is already here is already here. I sigh with regret before I stabilize my mind once again. "I can only accept my fate!" 

Currently, there are still many problems I still have yet to identify. I should seek these flaws as soon as possible rather than think about something I can't solve at the moment. There are things more important than skills right now. 

Rather than overthinking about just one problem; why not dig up more information to know all my defects? Might as well fix as many problems as possible to avoid severe future crises. 

Ahem* 

U made a fake cough as I got an idea. However, I am not sure if this will work.  Can I really ask the system?' I said inwardly.

I still have many doubts and curiosity that makes my palm feel itchy for an answer. However, I am not sure if I could ask for help from the system. Not sure if it will answer my questions.  

Sigh* 

I take a few deep breaths as I humms to comfort myself. 'This is for my future, anyway. No need to be shy to ask' 

Having a bucket of courage, I, with a bit of hesitancy, ask the system, "Can I ask you some personal questions, system? " 

If the system agrees, that would be great. But if it didn't, well, then I'll just investigate everything by myself. 

[...Knowledge comes with responsibility. Before asking questions, be sure you could protect the knowledge you are about to gain, or else it would affect the Host's ascension and future.] Thankfully, the system isn't as cold and stubborn as I thought. Not long after I ask, a reply comes.  

I tilt my head as I read the message. It is a bit confusing; 'What does the system mean? ' I ask inwardly. What it says has a point, but I don't know if the system has a deeper meaning about this. 'Anyway, no need to overthink! ' I hide all the worries at the back of my head. 

'Knowledge is power.' I repeat the phase in my mind. 'That is also the reason why this saying transpired on earth. Turns out this saying is not limited to the earth solely, but in this world too.' I analyzed, then said; 'Interesting. ' 

'Does this mean it is possible to see a familiar scene or lines in this world? ' I say, doubtful.  

'Fuck, I lost in thought again! ' Remembering that I need to question the system, I want to slap myself for losing in thoughts again. I hastily change my thought process and start thinking of a decent question. 

After a while, I get a decent question to ask. This time, With no touch of hesitation, I ask, "What should I call you, system? " 

I want to start the conversation with an introduction. This way, I can familiarize myself with it first and make the conversation more effective. 

This is the first step to deepen the bond of two people (or maybe not?). At least, this is what I know. 

Although the system isn't a human nor a former human, I believe this will also work. 

[The system has detected that the question isn't confidential. The answer will be being notified. Please wait a few seconds for the response.]

[Answer: the creator has named the system currently synced with the host 'The Divine Parasitic System... blah blah blah~ ]

'What!? ' While the system talks, my head lowers and lines appear on my forehead.  My face suddenly turns ugly as I think. ''What did it say?!' I ask myself. 'Did I hear it correctly?!' I am doubtful. 'Does the system say the word "parasite"?!' I add. 

'Don't tell me~' An idea pops up in my mind but I hastily reject it 'Hell, Nah! ' 

Unfortunately, the more I try to suppress the idea, the more it turns aggressive. 'Did I... turn into a parasite?!' Just this question, my head feels being held by a big hand that is trying to pop it. 

'According to novels that I read when I was on the earth, I knew that the name of the system has a connection to the ability that it can give, or the race of the protagonist. '

'For example, if there is a word dragon, then that means the protagonist is a dragon. Genius System, it means the protagonist will be a genius when the time comes. And so on.'

'If this also implies to me, there is no doubt that I became a parasite!' I carefully analyze the limited information I have. 

'But... Why parasites?!' My heart tightens as I think more of it. 'I don't want to be a parasite!' I say, complaining although there is no use. 

Giving some thoughts again, I realized something. 'Is this also the reason why I have this form of mine?!' 

Just to think of it, I guess there is a high chance I am a microorganism. My mind is in a state of mess. There are many questions, but no answers. 

Fortunately, the system is excellent at picking someone's emotion. After it finishes its explanation about the name, it says. [The Host's conclusion is right. The Host got reincarnated as a new class of divine parasites or a new species of parasites... the creator based my name on your new race...] 

'Fuck!' Hearing the confirmation, I can't help but curse. I want to cry without tears. Although the answer was expected by me, I still find it unbelievable! 

In my entire life, even in a dream, I didn't expect I would turn into a parasite.

I didn't think that one day I would turn into a disgusting parasite! 

You must know that I hated parasites in my former life. However; 'It seems this is the right time for me to accept their existence, because from now on; I am one of them.'

I lower my head and ruminate. I feel so frustrated and disappointed. 

Sigh*

After a while...

I turn silent and think about everything. 

Visualizing the pros and cons -I don't even know if there really are pros- of being a parasite other than the ability to shapeshift. I just once again decide to accept what my fate I have now. 

'Anyway, with the system, I believe everything should be okay... Although a bit complicated. ' 

'Unfortunately, to be reincarnated and get a system, I have to sacrifice my rod! My future children and clan!  ' Different emotions are surging within me. I don't know what to think anymore. 

Sigh*

'Disappointments are coming nonstop. I can feel my heart slowly dying in pain '

'Fortunately, there is a system or else, I might just going to kill myself. '

If I have a hand, I want to give a fist to heaven, but because I don't, I can only do it in my thoughts. 

Anyway, let's check my status.  

"System, could you show me my personal panel? " I randomly commanded. 

[...System Initializing, please wait for a few seconds...]

'Wow. Did I really get the right command on the first try?' I am shocked at first, then smile; 'Me spending my time reading novels in my former life doesn't seem like a complete waste. At least it is quite useful in my messy situation right now.' 

Right then, a message pops out in front of me. 

[The Divine Parasitic System: 

Host's Personal Panel=

Name: Su Yang, Age: 19 (Male)  

Bloodline: Divine Parasite 

Race: Parasite 

Level: × 

Power Points: 2,000 

Skills:  Control, Soul Devouring, Mimic.

Current Form: Fragment. ] 

'I really turned into a parasite! What the heck?!...' I say, sadly. I still can't believe it. I still can't accept the shit... 

And...

"System, what's with the word fragment at my panel written in the current form? " I already have some ideas about it, but I want confirmation, so I ask.  

As the phrase goes; asking something doesn't mean you are an idiot, it only means you want to learn more.

[Answering the Host; There is a saying, power comes with responsibility. Other than that, there is also the saying, evolution comes with destruction. 

After hundreds of years of silence, the world suddenly got its new evolution. The world developed, but chaos also ran amok. 

The Dark God was one of the most powerful individuals who developed with the ability he earned. He had the power to manipulate the darkness and annihilate the light. 

However, with the impressions of people in Darkness: Darkness is always an enemy of humans; he got hunted down by the world. 

After running for a year, he arrived at this hidden place and performed a sacrament to summon a soul from another world. 

He had an intention of summoning a life for it to turn into a war machine to eliminate his pursuers. 

Unfortunately, before he could summon someone, he got found out and killed on the spot. 

And for some reason, the pursuers didn't see the rune created by the Dark God. 

With the blood from the Dark God and the Blood of a Divine Parasite, it successfully summoned the host ten years after the incident.]

Reading the long paragraphs made up of hundreds of words, I couldn't help but get mesmerized a little. However, although it is interesting, it didn't answer my question. 

"System, your answer is also not bad, but... How the heck. It doesn't answer my question? " I explained. 

[Answering the Host; There is a saying, power comes with responsibility. Other than that, there is also the saying, evolution comes with destruction.

However, it answers the same way and with the same words. 'What the hell is happening?! '

Then the system goes on...

'Once is okay, but twice wasn't... what's more with trice?...!' I find something amiss. 

Something wrong is happening with my system.

'System~ ' I still want to ask again, but got stopped as I heard consecutive beeps from the system. It turns into chaos.  

ZzzzTztztz... The system is attempting to upgrade... The system is undergoing an Upgrade... Please... Wait for.... 10...>>>78.....90....97.... >>> 100...101...180... >>>> System failed to Upgrade... Please Issue your Quest. 

'I think I messed up! '

'My system seems a bit off?'

'Maybe you mean, broken one.'
