What is this...?

After dinner, mother and daughter returned home.

It was already dark outside, so Yusef made Iono accompany them.

The lights of the village, kept the beasts at bay and the awakened beasts were smart enough not to attack the place Yusef lived, therefore there was not that much danger. But you never know what's hiding in the darkness.

After taking the ladies home, he walked back, instead of sprinting. On the way, he thought about the situation.

"I wasn't expecting that from dad. I changed the past a bit too much I think.

First the overpowered monsters, then Clarissa and now this... I'm guessing that, if it wasn't for me getting stronger so fast, Clarissa would be dead.

Maybe that's why I don't remember her.

In my last life, Clarissa died in the forest and then her mom succumbed to malnutrition... which means... I... helped someone?

Me?

Now, that's something I wasn't expecting.

Anyways, given the state of things, the invasion might happen earlier than it's supposed to.

I'll have to be at least in Energy Condensation, or maybe Energy gathering tier 9.

But I'll probably only be in Aura Condensation, not Mana let alone Prana. So much to work on... ", he thought with a sigh.

"But... speaking of past lives. My previous life was very different from this one.

No family, renegade life, it makes me think of how many things I've experienced.

The difference in the rules of the worlds leaves me stunned.

Unlike this world, the last one had no Mana, Aura or Prana. I had this weird thing called a "system".

I wonder if there is something like this here. I got strong enough to steal Kyomu in that life, but still had no idea what the system was.

The skills I had would really come in handy. After all, I doubt anyone in this world would have them.

Well, what's the point of thinking about things I can't control? I'll just work with what I got.", he said inwardly.

After returning home, he went straight to his room and tried to fall asleep.

But an idea kept replaying in his mind over and over again. It seemed like someone was forcefully injecting it into his brain.

"It wouldn't hurt to say it, after all, what could possibly go wrong?", he pondered.

Therefore he stood up and then sat in a lotus position on the ground.

He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. When he opened them again, they were filled with anticipation, as he muttered the word,

"Status".

But nothing happened.

He waited for a while, and again, nothing happened.

Having his hopes, crash and burn, he sighed and tried to get up, when suddenly,

*Ding*

*Ding*

*Ding*

Multiple sounds echoed in his room, and in front of him, countless screens, in different colours, hung in the air.

Some were blue, some were green, some were translucent and others weren't even screens.

They appeared as letters in his head.

On the top of each Iono could see, different names, in different and unknown languages, and next to the name, in brackets, another word. He glimpsed to the nearest of the screens and saw,

Name: Kote (Goreva)

"This my name in my previous life, and that is the name of the world of my previous life... Does that mean...?", he was surprised, to say the least.

His eyes went wide, he was surprised by the screens, but even more so because he could see with his Inheritance, something he couldn't see before.

This whole time, the clanking sound didn't stop, and more and more screens appeared.

Iono looked at the scene in front of him with wonder when suddenly-

"AGHHH"

A horrendous headache made him suffer for a couple of seconds, before falling unconscious.

His brain overloaded by the amount of information, and no matter how great a capacity it had because of its constant Destruction and Reconstruction, it still shut down.

The screens immediately disappeared, and a black dagger floated out of his chest.

It floated next to his head and disappeared inside it. After a few seconds, it reappeared and returned to his chest.

-------------------------------------

The next morning, Iono woke up with a terrible headache.

The veins in his head were bulging, seemingly pumping a lot of blood into his brain.

His memories of last night were fuzzy...

He tried to remember but the headache wouldn't let him. So he got up and proceeded to his usual routine.

He went to the bathroom to wash his face, and brush his teeth. He used a bucket filled with water from the well his father had made.

While brushing his teeth he looked in the mirror and suddenly the headache got worse.

He dropped his toothbrush, as memories came flooding in from yesterday.

"Holy Sh*t!" He thought.

"To think my last life wasn't the only one with a system.

What is that thing anyway...

Wait...

Is this...? Kyomu, you beautiful thing!", he said in his head and looked at his chest.

Last night, when Kyomu entered his head, it gave him the information on how to access each system independently, since saying the words "Status", gave him access to all the systems, at once.

The problem was that he couldn't read most of them, after all, they were all in different languages.

He could only read one of them, and that was the one of the previous world.

Iono currently knew three languages, Goblin Tongue from his last life, Common Tongue from his current life and also Goblin Tongue from his current life.

They were infinite different types of Goblin Tongues, as there were infinite worlds. According to the rules of probability, some of them might be extremely similar, but never the same.

Therefore he could only have access to one system. But still, that made a giant difference to have access to none.

Having a system not only meant he could maybe use the skills of his past life, but also he would have a solid idea of his strength, instead of having to test it every time.

Plus the other effects of the system allowed him to become even stronger than before.

"But this is not enough. Even if I had all the systems together, I still wouldn't even be able to scratch Heaven.

The difference is simply too big.

If I am to battle Karma, this is nothing but a stepping stone.

Arrogance will only get me killed.

Strength is what I need!

With enough strength I can change my fate...", he pondered.

While looking in the mirror, he closed his eyes and said,

"Status, Goreva"

But he muttered it in the Goblin tongue of Goreva.

When he opened his eyes again, a blue screen appeared in front of him.
