4 Ascender

Should I use? Or should I not? Felis did not think much before willing the Lottery Interface to use his lottery ticket.

*Ding*

[ Does the Host Wang to use the Lottery Ticket.(Y/N)]

He chose yes without hesitation.

[ Calculating Reward..... 890 points.

Host's Luck: 1.2

Final Reward is increased by 1.2 times

1068 points awarded.]

Felis watched as his Popularity points rose from 8459 to 9527 in a blink. He squinted his eyes at this. If his popularity points had not increased he could have dismissed this as his hallucination, but since his points have increased this put Felis in a unknown situation, and Felis hated the 'Unknown'.

Felis tried to analyze the things he knew about this weird system.

The popularity points were awarded and controlled by the Popularity Index. It was basically impossible for someone to fake the popularity points. After all the Index was a supreme existence which even the Mythical Gods dare not to oppose.

So this System should be an existence that was at least comparable to the Mythical Gods, probably stronger than them.

The system had appeared when he was 18 years 23 days old, and its first sign of appearance was the Dark World which had the words that welcomed him to the System.

At that time he was injured, unconscious, in contact with his little sister, and....hungry.

Felis meticulously pointed out everything that he knew about the System, but the whole idea was still vague in his mind.

Will it harm him? Will it help him? Will it leave him on its own? A vast number of questions remained unanswered in his mind!

Well, at least it does not seem to harm him at the moment and it had even given him popularity points, so Felis tried to probe further inside the system. After all, his intention was to understand his situation and a little probing would not hurt.

Felis willed himself to use the Skill Ticket.

*Ding*

[ Does the Host want to use the Grade F Skill Ticket.(Y/N)]

[ Congratulations to Host for successfully becoming a Ascender.

Remarks: Your path to becoming the no 1 ShowOff has just started.]

[ ShowOff System's Mission Interface is now active.]

[ ShowOff System's AI is now active.]

[ ShowOff System's Shop is now active.]

Felis observed the new information calmly. These string of notifications had given him more clues about the system.

First, it's name, ShowOff System. Next, it's aim was to help the host become the world's best ShowOff! But the word, 'Ascender' caught Felis's attention more than anything.

Ascender was not a new term to Felis. In fact, every human being in this world had some basic knowledge about the Ascenders. The Ascenders were those who had successfully awakened their Innate Skills and had a good grasp on their skill's usage.

But awakening one's Innate Skill required an Awakening potion which was only sold by the Index at a cost price of 10 million points. So most Ascenders were usually popular celebrities which in turn increased the popularity of the ascenders to a new level.

The dreams of millions of people to become ascenders, he had reached it without effort, but Felis was calm.

He could emphasise the feelings of those who worked hard to reach their goals only to fail at the end, but he could also emphasise the feelings of the strong to suppress the weak.

"Sigh! The world had just become a much more bigger place...."

....

City 13, 1894th street, A 57 floured building, the highest floor, a crimson haired beauty in a modern suit was staring at the city below, her ember eyes were burning like the raging tides in a storm filled sea showcasing her ever burning determination.

Another Young Lady, who was more prettier than the red haired lady who was looking at the city below, stood behind her with respect. She had long black hair which was let down freely, she looked fresh and... delicate.

"Speak" the red haired lady commanded.

The black haired beauty nodded. "We accepted the cave cleaning mission you have wanted, but the difficulty is lowered because of our Mercenary Group Rank. We recruited a new Healer based on the water element. Our rivals, The Light Mercenary group had stepped into middle ranked Mercenary groups. Your mother called and threatened to destroy our group for the fifth time today. Your father intervened with your mother and they had a grade A destruction scale battle right outside our building. Someone Ascended today at 6:08 AM, his name was hidden and we could not find any intel about this Ascender other his Innate Skill Type which was a Movement type skill, but the exact Movement skill was not yet known." The black haired lady informed sincerely, not missing anything.

Hearing this, the red haired lady, the head of the Scarlett Mercenary group finally had a change in her expression. Her face frowned lightly and she fell into thought.

"Contact a Diviner, find out about this new Ascender at all costs!" The red haired lady decisively gave an order.

The Index was a mysterious and omnipotent existence that had no rivals. When one usually ascended through the Awakening potion, Their name and Innate Skill would be saved in Index's records.

As long as it was recorded inside the Index, anyone can buy the information with enough points in hand.

Since the name was not recorded inside the Index, it could only mean that this Ascender awakened his innate Skill without an Awakening potion. This kind of occurrence was rare, but it was still possible.

But, Anyone who could ascend without an Awakening potion was an once in a million genius. The red haired lady was interested in this so called genius. She wanted to find out what was so special about these Heaven Favoured Sons.

"Roger!" The black haired young lady acknowledged and quietly took her leave while think of multiple ways she could use to destroy the Light Mercenary group, their rivals.

She smiled smugly at her own evil thoughts. Obviously, she was extremely narcissistic!
