System Sama

The entire page displayed a big title saying 'Mystic Evolution System,' followed by three icons in the row below.

The icons were an ant, a bear, and a ghost, arranged from left to right. There was also a '+' icon in the next row, currently disabled.

"The Bear Icon is for you, and this Ghost Icon is for you. That means this ant Icon is for me? Are you kidding me? I'm a great demon... why did they create an ant for me?"

Ming Chen pointed at both Kun Ming and Han Wei, a bit perplexed at the fiery red ant icon displayed.

"Does it matter now? Let's quickly check what this is about. After this, we need to add some firewalls to our application to make sure something like this will not happen again."

Kun Ming said, feeling a bit irritated at Ming Chen's childish reaction.

"Still..."

Ming Chen wanted to argue a bit more. But suddenly, a pop-up flashed on the screen, attracting all of their attention.

[Detected the respective persona that matches for the Evolution.]

[Initiating the binding process in three seconds... 3, 2, 1]

[Binding process initiated...10%...50%....90%...100%]

[Process completed. Congratulations to respective hosts. You may now explore your evolution.]

A series of pop-ups kept flashing on the screen and closing automatically, leaving the three of them rendered speechless about what was happening.

As the last pop-up remained on the screen, they looked at each other blankly, searching for an answer that none of them could provide.

Just as they began to recover and were about to say something, an unusually cold and refreshing feeling started flowing through them, instilling fear in each of them.

"This, This... Something is happening to me, Chen and Kun... I have a very refreshing and cold feeling going all over my body..."

Han Wei stood up with horror written all over his face, truly scared by this unknown experience.

"Stop shouting... I'm also facing the same here. Panicking won't help in any manner."

Kun Ming reprimanded Han Wei, though an unusual amount of sweat formed on his forehead due to the extreme fear.

"I think it's a kind of bio-tech weapon or something. We better hurry to the hospital and also inform the authorities about this."

Kun Ming suggested as he already started rushing towards the door.

Despite facing this unknown terror, they maintained their composure, thanks to the rigorous training they had undergone since a young age.

"Alright, stop making a fuss now. I think our lives are finally getting into an exciting phase, hehe."

Ming Chen remained seated, not standing up from his position. He turned around with a calm facade, though inside, a multitude of emotions swirled that his buddies couldn't understand at the moment.

What he was going through was the exact opposite of what Kun Ming and Han Wei were experiencing.

In his wildest dreams, he never thought something like this would happen to them. According to the previous version of himself, it was not possible in reality.

However, the reality in front of him subverted his sanity. But he quickly connected the dots, realising that it was not only happening to him.

This realisation made him firmly believe that they had stepped onto a path that was going to be extraordinary.

What truly made him excited, to the point that his hands started shaking due to extreme exhilaration, was the thing being displayed in front of him.

Right after calming down, Ming Chen felt significantly stronger than before. He also sensed that he could produce something from his hands just by thinking about it.

Recognising this made him ecstatic, understanding that it was probably one of the skills displayed in front of him.

Unlike his buddies, who were panicking due to the sudden changes in their bodies, Ming Chen surprisingly accepted these developments rather quickly.

He then calmly gazed at his buddies, who didn't seem to be bothered by his earlier words. They were still panicking, albeit a bit less than before.

"Alright, stop it now. I think your bodies are already back to normal, right?"

Ming Chen asked, seeming to understand what was happening to them.

"Indeed, they are back to normal, but we need to rush to the hospital quickly for a check-up. I suspect that whatever it is, it went into a dormant state for now..."

Kun Ming felt a bit irritated at the calm Ming Chen, who didn't seem to take their situation seriously. But before he could finish his words, Ming Chen cut him short again.

"He he, why can't you both sense your bodies? First calm down and check."

Ming Chen chuckled, stopping the overly dramatic Kun Ming.

Surprisingly, Han Wei calmed down and nodded his head. He then moved to sit beside Ming Chen and started observing his body for any changes.

Kun Ming also gritted his teeth before complying to do the same.

"I feel much stronger than before, and also I feel like I can do some... Magic?"

Han Wei lifted his head with a bit of excitement after staying calm for a minute or so, expecting an answer from Ming Chen.

"Similar here... Ming Chen, looks like you know something about this, right? Is that the reason you are so calm? And also, can you stop acting mysterious and inform us as to what's happening quickly?"

Kun Ming also said, raising his head to look at both of them.

"Well, well... I hope you all know about this thing happening to us pretty well. It's just that..."

"Cut it short; I don't have enough patience for a story now."

Han Wei rolled his eyes and urged Ming Chen to simplify the explanation.

"Alright then. Simple, we are chosen by a mysterious 'System-sama' that we usually read about in books."

Ming Chen blurted out calmly, making the two go silent for a moment.

"Bullshit, do you think..."

Kun Ming came out of his brief stupor, staring at Ming Chen as though he was looking at an idiot before flaring up.

Before he could finish his words, he saw Ming Chen raising his hand, and two beautiful miniature swords made entirely of pure red fire, which was uncommon, hovered on his palm.

The entire room heated up due to the extremely hot fire swords, which were actually only around 2 inches in size.

But the duo didn't bother about that, as they were currently too dumbstruck to even think. A multitude of emotions went through them.

Then chaos ensued with bursts of laughter, excitement, un-explainable banter, and many more. Ming Chen also joined them to vent out his excitement.

It took a whole hour for them to calm down from the adrenaline that had pumped into their bodies.

"F**k, I still can't believe it. No matter how many times I pinch myself, I still feel like this is all a sweet dream of mine."

Han Wei said as he sat beside Ming Chen and Kun Ming to check on their respective Icons.

"Alright, alright... It's true, that's why I said we are truly lucky bastards, hehe."

Ming Chen commented as he clicked on the Ant Icon on the screen.

The three of them then concentrated on the screen with expectations, and as Ming expected, the information on the screen was a bit more detailed than his personal panel.

"Are you the owner of the system? Then what about us?"

"So, your evolution type is a demon ant? Waah, your skills are too overpowered, aren't they?"

"Well, it looks like you gained an extra 0.4 points from both of us. Also, our stats may have been more than one even before we evolved."

"I'm kind of jealous now that I didn't open this... you lucky bastard."

"What does Tier 1 low-grade rank mean? And also, there is an exp bar. Does that mean we can increase the rank? But how..."

"There is also an age showing that we have 100 years overall. Does it indicate that we can live more than that if we upgrade ourselves?"

A multitude of questions blasted, and there is naked jealousy on their faces when they both look at Ming Chen, which isn't covered at all.

But that is how they are. Even if they are jealous, they will just express it. They don't keep it inside and start hating on their buddy for that.

This is how their friendship has endured for this long.

"Humph, who told you both not to be luckier than me? Also, stop bombarding me with questions. I just know as much as you both do. Let's first check your section, then we will find out how this system works."

Ming Chen rolled his eyes at them as he spoke. After saying that, he didn't bother with their angry stares and simply clicked on the Bear Icon.
