Chapter 8: System Interface

As Shiv contemplated the newfound alliance with the legendary upgrade system, he said , "I want to see the character panel." To his surprise, the system responded by explaining that he could communicate with the system through his thoughts, without the need to speak aloud.

Instantly, a holographic panel materialized before Shiv, resembling those commonly seen in video games. The panel displayed crucial information about his character and progress.

The panel showed a few notifications:

The the daily quest: Drinking 10 liters of water.

The reward for completing the quest: 5 Experience Points.

The current experience: 5 out of 100.

Shiv's attention was immediately drawn to the core details displayed on the panel:

Name: Shiv

Bloodline: Dark Veil (Related to Darkness)

Current Experience: 0 out of 100

Underneath, Shiv noticed the listed attributes that represented his inherent strengths:

MP: 20 (previously 10)

Agility: 12 (previously 10)

Vitality: 9 (previously 10)

Intelligence: 33 (previously 10)

One attribute remained unassigned, waiting for Shiv's decision.

The character panel also indicated that Shiv currently possessed no skills or titles.

Shiv couldn't contain his excitement as he realized the immense growth potential and development opportunities ahead. With the ability to communicate silently with the system and a tangible representation of his progress, a renewed sense of purpose and determination surged within him.

Little did Shiv know that this system interface would become his trusted companion, guiding him through challenges, offering rewards, and presenting opportunities for advancement.

And with the mysterious attribute of Eternal Essence yet to be explored, Shiv could only anticipate the wonders it might hold on his journey toward becoming a formidable cultivator.
