I Became a System

[A/N: While I upload chapters, I encountered some glitches, so some parts may have swapped that I didn't notice. However, if there are some like flashbacks, or prior to that time but only showed later, it is not about the glitch. So, if you ever reach the latest part, you can criticize me all you want... I know I did a bad job that's why I am going to put the whole story in editing with the errors I mentioned.] Aaron was just a normal human being who liked to read books. But apparently, he died by being buried in a mountain of books he had read. He became a system, rune, and power of Ellena, a "cursed child" who was mistreated by the people around her because of the belief that black hairs are cursed. At the age of 15, she was cast out of the family, and just as fate told her it wouldn't be easy, she was captured and turned into a slave. At that time, Aaron was still not activated. In this world, people have abilities that can be obtianed by activating runes on the back of their right hands. However, Aaron wasn't activated even after Ellena's 15 years of living. It was just that some condition was needed for the special power within the rune to be activated. When Aaron was activated, it was already when Ellena suffered the most. Together, they survived the suffering, and Ellena acquired her own ability, with the help of her system, the special power behind her rune. Ellena attained her own personality, but it was something different despite being mistreated for years. She became soft and justful. Perhaps of the longing for protection she was searching for, she was ready to give it to others. It was also connected to her destiny that Aaron diligently assessed for years, until it finally happened. "There were mysteries in this world. The fight between dimensional chaos and those who plunder different dimensions is now affecting mortals. I ask you, Aaron, to become one of us if you want to help Ellena." 'Ellena was supposed to save the world. And I was something special that 'they' were longing to find.' With the passage of time, Aaron started to learn his true self, the real form of his soul that he didn't expect to discover. *** Volume 1: Fear System [Completed] Volume 2: Blessing and Third-Generation Group [Completed] Volume 3: Alias Noelle [Completed] Volume 4: Companions [Completed] Volume 5: Sin of Greed (On-going) *** This isn't a boring story. Read it and enjoy or drop it if not. Also if you ever wanted to leave a review, be sure to read half of the first volume. You aren't leaving a review for the first chapter but for the book. --- [Image, not mine, I just edited it and used it as my cover. If you are the owner, I can take it down immediately.]

Masagach Raid

The situation was quickly handled when the father bastard retreat after knowing that Amber was from a Count family.

It was really helpful since we don't have to deal with that noble problematic brain. 

After they reported the completion, the brother bastard was removed from participation. Their participation was considered invalid since they did not help them.

They sold the material they got from the monsters' corpses. From the dungeon dive completion and material, Ellena earned 300 silver coins.

"That was good." Selena complimented Amber.

Amber as her reply, just smirked while keeping her face of victory.

"Yeah, I know. You know Ellena, it's better for you to come back to us."

Ellena raised one brow. "I still don't want to."

Perhaps Amber was implying that Ellena could use the perks of being a noble.

Amber just shrugged while she joined Ellena getting out of the guild.

"Big Sister!" Ellena was greeted by Isabella who was just waiting outside the guild.

Apparently, Isabella's training consists of stamina building where they need to run around Azmar.

Isabella was obviously sweating and she still has the gasping sound in her breathe. Ellena, being a sweet sister, helped Isabella swipe her sweats.

"Thank you."

"Let's have some lunch?"

"Yes!" Amber joined with her childish smile. "I'm getting hungry anyways!"

"Selena, wanna come?" It was Ellena who invited Selena.

"No, I am going to the orphanage. There are still things I need to do." She declined.

"Okay... then see you tomorrow?"

Selena smiled before answering. "Yes, see ya."

***

After they took their lunch. Ellena used her time to gather information about the Masagach. It was fortunate the Amber didn't follow her, so she has the time to gather more information.

She visited stalls which she was familiar to ask about the Masagach.

The Masagach family is just another viscount family in the countryside. Well, this town is considered the countryside since it is away from the capital. 

But more to that, Masagach family are famous for trading business. They don't have much land so it is understandable that they can't fight a higher family which is well-known for their wealth despite being at the middle rank.

This mission we are going to is, threatening Masagach since they are suspicious. Ellena is suspecting them that they will vent out their anger and frustration to the debtors that joined the dungeon diving.

Ellena is really altruistic, I can't make a comment about that anymore. 

But despite this kind of attitude, she personally is constantly changing and developing. Not in a manner of being evil, more on having an ability to control others.

Now, the problem is controlling others. Does this really mean about manipulating the people how will they act? Well, it's not like that, it is more about how they will feel.

She can be cruel, creepy, eerie, furious, or anything that would be appropriate for the situation. And doing that, she can make people fear her.

This is just one of my hypotheses, Ellena is probably playing the fear system.

Yes, that's it. She is eager to earn points that's why she is learning how to make people more scared. Maybe I was suggesting things to her in the past, but Ellena right now is not receiving suggestions on how to make a person scared. She acts solo on that matter.

I can just make imaginary shook. People are getting more stupid in the eyes of Ellena. Well, not really all, since she biasedly judge people by their acts so I'm still here to assist her.

The night came just so fast after gathering information. Of course, Amber was with them so she did not make it obvious where she was the rest of the day. She just played with them until they go to their respective rooms.

Afterward, Ellena prepared for the night for a new mission. I am really nervous since this will be the first mission on nobles. We don't know if there are guards around their premises.

So as an alternative to change the mood. Ellena needs a warm-up.

"Want to check the orphanage?" I asked.

We didn't really come back to the headmaster last night. Amber was with them so we don't know what will be her plan to observe Ellena. But right now, since we got the mood lighter, with precaution, we will escape Amber's eyes.

'Yes, we should make the headmaster pay for her involvement.'

We made a quick trip to the orphanage. Lady luck was really on our side since we caught the headmaster in the room where we found the documents.

"Hi, headmaster." Ellena made a joking greeting making the headmaster gasp in surprise.

"Y-you! What do you want?!"

The same method of scaring the headmaster, Ellena produced a small thread of lightning on her hands. She really likes scaring the headmaster.

"I just want to tell you that you have to use your pocket money to fix the unjust allocation of money in this church."

"Why? It's my money. I can't use it for the church. I am just a victim!"

Yes... sadly, she is also a victim. She was just used by the mastermind, Hubert Lumbert. But apparently, she was not brainwashed in this matter. She has a will and she didn't use that will to do what is right.

She may be powerless, but it was still a crime because she partakes in it. She participated in embezzling the church's fund and for the orphanage too. She will be left with no choice but to receive full punishment.

However, Ellena is different. She would want to fix everything fairly.

"Yes... I know that. But I am here to promise to you, I will put that guy down." But the headmaster's reaction was different.

"Pft." She seems to see everything as a joke to her. Well, I can understand her mindset since she knew what's the capabilities of that geezer.

"Do you think you can defeat Count Lumbert? Don't joke with me, miss. It is impossible."

But despite the negative words of the headmaster, Ellena didn't bother it.

"Too bad, I am eager. Now, just make sure to fix this. I will always bother you."

"Okay! Okay! Please just don't hurt me anymore."

It was good that the headmaster was scared, but we don't know what to do if she just escapes. There still more things we must focus and clearly, this headmaster is hopeless.

We left the church and head to the mansion of Masagach. When we reached it, I can't help but mesmerize. 

The house was majestically built. The gates were shining despite being late at night. The mansion itself was effortlessly planned and the structure was flawless. I can barely describe things as beautiful and this one is surely part of them.

There were guards at the gate but since Ellena has a stealth ability, she didn't need to be bothered by sneaking.

She climbed her way to the wall in the dark part then jumped over it, entering the premises of the mansion. 

Still sneaking, she entered the mansion and a dark corridor greeted her.

There are no guards here since this mansion is not the main storage of the Masagach. It was just a coincidence that the head of the family was here then interferes with the guild.

They are well-known for their wealth so they have guards outside, but because they have confidence, they wanted to halt intruders so that they would not need to guard inside.

We searched for the room of the head. As usual, I use the cheat for passing through walls then entered every room we pass. 

Every room was made beautifully but there is a room that is distinct from the rest. It was surrounded by decorative from expensive materials.

It was clearly the room of the head. So as a reflex, I reported it to Ellena but I was bothered by something. I heard moans.

Wait! Wait! Wait! This is not right! I shoul-

Before I could stop Ellena, she sneaked into the room and witnessed the moaning event inside the room. 

The room was dim so basically, the stealth ability was at the best potential. But... how about me who can clearly see everything?!

On top of the head, there is a lady in her prime who keeps moaning and I can tell that they are having a s##.

"Uhm... Ellena... can we just come back tomorrow?"

But Ellena doesn't know what is happening. She didn't know what was the situation is!

"Stop with what you are doing." She stated, pointing a sharp object at the naked lady.

Being surprised, both of them jumped in their fear then covered their bodies.

Then... plenty of points emerged from their heads. Making it looks like we just won a lottery. Well, it is indeed a lottery since we just got a small chance of collecting this much.

"Wait! Honey, I thought you were on a trip?!"

Honey? Did he assume that it was her wife? Aha! So it was the reason plenty of points emerged from them. They were having an affair or something adultery.

"I'm not your wife. And what's this filthy thing you are doing. Wear your clothes!"

"Yes!" The woman obeyed but the head was just still sitting.

"Who are you?" He asked with a furious voice.

"I am your death if you don't obey my words."

It was lucky of us that they were doing some sin. We earned 15 points after that jump scare.

Ooppss...
