My Guardian System: The Trader

In the current era, the world is on the brink of destruction. Humans are in a constant war against the alien race known as Invaders, and at the same time defending themselves from the relentless attack of the mutated beasts. To survive, the human civilization hides inside the cover of a wide-ranged shell made of Ex-Energy. It is the light particles from the humans who were born with their bodies surrounded by magical light. These humans were known as Ex-Humans. They are humanity's last hope... Depending on the density and brightness of light, the growth potential of these so-called Ex-Humans. However, one boy was born with just a fraction of it. Join and witness Jem Hansen, our protagonist, as he struggles to become the best man that his adopted grandfather wanted him to be. He was deemed as the weakest Ex-Human in the academy and betrayed by his party in their exploration inside a Desolate Region, where the danger lies everywhere. They left him while they escaped. He has to survive on his own! He, who had been the weakest among them all had to escape and hide to survive. Jem, who was chased by countless mutated beasts found himself trapped inside a monster-filled dungeon. In the last second of his life, an immense blinding light befalls him. Together with it, is the sudden voice in his head. [I am the soul collector and death instigator. Your guardian system, the bringer of death... and the trader.] A chill run down his spine upon hearing the voice in his head. #Cover not mine kudos to the owner#

[You received 5 Trade Points for trading Swine Claw!]

...

In the end, Jem was able to gain 450 points after trading all the valuable parts. He also did not forget to keep the Beast Core.

"Phew!" A huge sigh left his mouth after dismantling the beast for all the valuable parts.

Thanks to his new left hand, the disassembling was pretty much done faster.

Jem did not waste his time; he went directly to browse his Trading Shop to obtain the [Smite] ability. "150 Trade Points…" Jem muttered to himself. "Expensive!" he exclaimed.

"Probably because it increases the power of the item, it should be the reason for its cost," he mumbled.

Thankfully, he got a bountiful haul. His current balance is 450. He would probably get a total of 500 Trade Points if he traded all the meat. But he had to keep some. Regardless, spending 150 for the [Smite] ability could still leave him with 300 points.

[Learn the Smite Ability for 150 Trade Points?]

Jem confirmed by tapping the <Yes> option.

[Smite Ability successfully learned!]

The same thing happened to the Intimidation Ability and Stretching Arm Ability; the information regarding the Smite Ability also suddenly registered in his mind.

No matter how many times, it still puzzled him how the information suddenly appeared as though he only forgot it

Nonetheless, he still has 300 points.

[Spend 100 Trade Points to promote your Exo Points?]

Jem confirmed.

[Exo Points: 2 >>> 3]

He also promoted his Exo Points for 100 Trade Points. Now Jem was left with 200 points.

He checked his Status System once again.

[STATUS SCREEN]

Host: Jem Hansen

Race: Human

Level: 0

Exo Points:3/10

Ex-Energy: 5/110

Ascendance Points: 11/100

Trade Point/s: 200

Skill/s: Fortification; Intimidation; Stretching Arm; Smite

Jem was unaware that his mouth curved into a smile. Finally, his Exo Points had raised to 3. At this rate, every time he ascended in the future, he would get an additional 3 Ascendance Points. Just that, the next upgrade needs 1,000 Trade Points!!? Holy cow!

Jem sighed. There's nothing he can do either way.

Though it was a difficult challenge to survive in this dungeon, Jem was motivated to continue. Especially whenever he sees he's improving, little by little.

Only 200 points were left on his Trade Points after he promoted his Exo Points.

"200 Trade Points?"

"Should I buy the Furious Fangs in the Prosthesis Parts?"

Jem asked himself and pondered. He tried to balance the cons and pros of buying it. Besides for eating purposes, it seems to have less importance.

'Also, weren't fangs uncomfortable to have? There is a tendency to hurt my mouth because of it.'

<No, Host. You don't have to worry about that. All the things available in the prosthesis parts are modified so that they won't discomfort the host.>

His trusted partner had once again replied to his self conversing.

"I see, but. Aren't I going to look like a monster because of it?"

<If that what worries the Host, then I confidently say there's no need to worry about it, Host.>

Jem squinted his eyes, "What do you mean?"

<Much better if the Host figure it yourself.>

"....."
