Chapter 40: New System.

Lying on their bed, side by side the twins looked at the ceiling of their bedroom.

'What do you think he will do with us now?' Luna asked as she turned her head to look at him.

'Does it matter as long as we are together but if he gives you some harsh punishment-' he did not complete his sentence but his glowing cold eyes said it all.

'System, Show me the notifications now.'

After remembering that he has gained full access to the system he was eager to see what features did he unlock today.

[ System Notifications.

First Human Kill: Task Completed

Unlocking Perks ]

[ Host has gained full access and new functions and features are now available.]

'Show me the "real system" then.' As his words dropped the screen in front of him changed from blue to golden one with detailed borders making it look majestic.

On the screen three words were written in majestic fonts.

"Celestial Exchange System"

As he focused on those words the screen changed and he was now seeing a panel with the same template but the context changed.

There was his profile on the page along with other options

[ — STATUS | Shop | Skills | Inventory —

Host: Keiran Solunar

Age: 10 Years Old

Attribute: Yang

Energy: Ether

Tier: 1

Bloodline: Mortal Level.

Blessing: Yang Half of (The Chaotic Yin-Yang). ]

' System what is this Bloodline, Blessing and tier section.' Keiran asked, puzzled with the displayed information.

[ It will take some time to explain everything, does the host want to know this right now or do you want me to tell you after you see through the whole screen.]

'Hmm~, Tell me after I check the entire thing.' After thinking for a while Keiran decided to check the system first.

Looking back at the screen he saw the information that was displayed on the panel under the Status category, as he focused his gaze on the skills section the screen display changed and it displayed the skills section.

[ — Status | Shop | SKILLS | Inventory —

Eternal Bond: Innate skill (details)

Absolute Yang: Acquired skill (details) ]

When he saw the inventory option beside the skills tab he decided to check it first, when the screen displayed the inventory option Keiran was puzzled to see that there was nothing in there.

[ — Status | Shop | Skills| INVENTORY —

~~Empty~~ ]

'Why is this empty system?' Luna who was also watching the screen silently till now could not contain her curiosity, so she decided to ask the question.

[ Inventory: A section where you place any items with just a simple thought. You don't have to worry about that item being stolen or lost.]

Hearing the explanation, the twins' eyes lit up as they thought of the possibility of hiding their trump cards inside this place.

'How does this inventory work?' Keiran was stunned by the workings of the inventory, so he decided to satisfy his curiosity by asking the question.

[ The place it is stored is the storage of the system which is inside your soul space.]

' Can you tell me who placed you inside of me?' Keiran asked again, trying to find information on the maker of the system.

[Host is not powerful enough for now, once host reaches a certain level of power.

I will tell the host about everything related to the system.

Host doesn't have to be worried about being deceived or being used because the system is linked to your soul with a bond.

Meaning if the Host dies, I will perish as well.]

' Wait, you mean i'm not the only one bonded to Keiran.' When Luna heard the explanation her eyes turned cold as her aura flared.

[ You do not even have a soul bond with the host in the first place. You just have a bond on the surface level.]

As those words reached her ears she froze and her mind turned into a mess. She even felt like the system was boasting in front of her.

' I don't have a bond with my brother….' her words trembled yet kept repeating like a broken record in keiran's mind.

Understanding the feelings of the woman Keiran asked a question which brought back the light in Luna's lifeless eyes.

' Is there a way for me to form a soul bond with Luna?'

Luna turned her attention towards the system, not wanting to miss a single word it was going to speak.

[ You can check the last tab for that.]

After scanning through the page with his eyes Keiran understood the essence of the system.

His gaze landed on the shop section, unable to contain his curiosity he focused on the word and the screen changed once more.

[ — Status | SHOP | Skills | Inventory — Points Available: 1,000

Categories: Skills | Items | Bloodline (Locked)

Search category {_____} ]

[ Here you have to select one of the three categories and you will see all the available options under them.]

'Why is the last one locked ?' Keiran noticed the bloodline section was locked.

Which made him curious, he has already unlocked everything in the system so why is this section still locked?

[ The cheapest purchase of that section is from 100,000 points.

Which is why, it is suggested that the host gains the minimum required amount of credits before even looking at that place. ]

System let Keiran process the words he had just spoken and then continued continuing.

[Once I will explain about the bloodlines and blessings host will understand everything. ]

Keiran took a deep breath and nodded in agreement, taking a step at a time was what was best for him and at this moment he could not focus on something that was unattainable to him.

Deciding to open the skill function, Keiran focused on it and a list of names with prices came to his view.

[ —— Shop ——

Keiran found some of the skills that caught his eyes, he checked their description as well. Their details made him more sure to buy them.

[ Mind Shield Skill - protects the user from invasion inside your mind and mind attacks.

Caution: Keep it in mind that it only works against tier 1 and tier 2 level attacks. ]

This skill reminded him of the battle he had witnessed in the arena.

Deciding that this was one of the skills he needed to protect his mind, he chose to buy this skill later.

[ Temporary soul contract - a skill that binds two souls for a specific period of time.

It can either make one of the contractors as the owner of the other's or it can give them equal standing in the contract.

P.S: The max amount of time it can be used for is 10 years.]

'This contract is like the ones for slaves and workers despite the soul part.' Keiran thought while remembering the conditions of slaves in workers in the kingdom.

Suddenly something came to his mind, which he decided to ask the system.

'What about Luna, can she gain these skills as well?' Keiran's words made Luna look at him with warm eyes.

She had never thought of gaining those skills. She knew if things stayed like that sooner or later she would be left behind and she did not want to hold him back.

[No, currently she cannot gain any skills from the system as this system was designed for one person.]

'What do you mean currently?' Hearing that there might be a chance for Luna to gain the powers, Keiran asked the solution without any hesitation.

[ The answer to your question is your next choice.

Permanent Soul contract - 600 pts - ...]
