System

"Ah! It's morning already."

Alex muttered as soon as he opened his eyes. Seeing the sunlight from his window, he felt like a log. He felt his body was heavy and was aching if he tried to move. He then remembered that he had pushed himself too far in the dungeon.

Forcing himself to get up, Alex took a bath and his necessity was taken care of. Confirming the time that it was still early at six, Alex made his way to the kitchen and saw Kronos preparing their breakfast.

"Oh, Alex! You're up already."

Kronos acted like he was surprised seeing Alex. He immediately followed up some words.

"Did you miss the great and magnificent me while you're in the dungeon?"

As they have known each other for years already, Alex was aware that Kronos has a big ego for himself. Even he wasn't told by Kronos yet, as a former god, he was aware of Kronos' identity.

It was commonly known that Kronos was the former Lord of Olympus and the God of Time and Death. Before he became the Supreme God of Olympus, Kronos was known as a troublemaker, causing numerous problems and pranks in Olympus.

During his time as the Olympian King, Kronos was stated to have had immense power that easily eclipsed the rest of the gods and was stated to have singlehandedly defeated all of them and force them to submission. In fact, Kronos's might was so powerful that the other gods were unable to fight against his power and few beings could match him in terms of power.

Kronos was the god that had divine control over "Time" and was stated to be immensely powerful because of his authority over time. Kronos's control over time correlated with his divine authority over death, with him stating to embody the concept of "Death through Time" and this power was precisely the reason why the Godly Society of Olympus was feared by all other gods during his time as its King.

Now that he had descended into the surface, just like most common gods that descended for entertainment, Kronos was also the same and was taking his time together with Alex.

"Yes, I've missed the meal that the great Kronos was serving in every meal."

Alex replied back cheekily as he matched his tone with Kronos. Kronos simply smiled hearing that and continued there banter in the morning.

Chatting happily for a while, the food that Kronos was cooking was now ready to be served.

"I'll prepare some food. Let's seat down and eat."

Alex nodded and placed the plates in the table waiting for Kronos to finish preparing their meal. Just like always, they had a simple meal for the two of them. Simple might not be the correct words as Kronos' cooking was slightly extravagant which made Alex satisfied every time he ate Kronos' cooking.

Kronos and Alex enjoyed their food for a few minutes while talking about many things that happened in Orario in the past few days. Kronos told him what's the usual stuffs that were happening in the cafe while Alex told his journey in the dungeon.

"So you encountered several enhanced species of war shadows and frog shooters?"

Alex nodded while stuffing a spoon full of food listening to Kronos' curious expression.

"Did you beat them up until you're satisfied?"

"I did?"

Alex responded with a confused expression wondering if he really did beat them up. Seeing his expression, Kronos grinned not wanting to pass the opportunity to boast.

"Well if it's me, it would be over in an instant. Just the presence of the magnificent me is more than enough to easily exterminate them instantly."

"Though that would be too hard for you brat as you're not as strong as me. You're not even at 1% of my power."

"Yes, yes. I'm not even at the 1% of your greatness."

Alex replied nonchalantly not really caring about what he had just said.

"Once we're done eating, I will update your status. I think you've improved quite a bit."

"Munch...Alrig-ght."

•~~~•

Inspecting the back of Alex, with his hands on his chin, Kronos murmured.

"Not bad. Congratulations brat, you can now level up to level 2."

"Here, take a look."

Kronos handed the paper which Alex curiously watched.

* The user is able to cast illusion on a target through eye contact.

* Effects are greatly enhanced in proportion to the awakened tomoe.]

Reading his status, Alex was surprised seeing the [Sharingan] in there. Now he know what's the phenomenon he experienced when fighting the war shadows. It was because of his [Sharingan] that awakened during that fight.

Most of his stats were nearing S, and he was surprised at how much his Magic had increased. It seems his use of [Flying Thunder God], [Fire Style Magic] and the unknowingly used of [Sharingan] promotes magical growth to a terrifying degree.

Seeing his surprised expression, Kronos grinned as calmly spoke.

"I suggest you should hold your level. Well atleast until you maxed your stats."

Kronos knew that it would be a waste if Alex would level up now as he had a fast growth and it would be a waste to stop it.

"You're right."

Most people were dying to level up. Alex knew that he could still gain more stats. Leveling him at this moment would be a waste.

A level shows the rank of an adventurer. Just defeating monsters doesn't lead to a level up. To level up, one must have at least a D rank in one basic ability and accumulate enough high-quality excelia that it overflows one's container, thus enabling them to level up.

Leveling up is not automatic; one's God has to consciously make the decision to level up a familia member. Holding off leveling up is a strategy some might do for such reasons as to raise one's basic abilities higher or to unlock development abilities.

"Well, I still had a cafe to open so I'll leave you for now."

Kronos nonchalantly left as soon as Alex nodded. Left alone, Alex was in great mood seeing his growth. As Alex was about to immerse in his own thoughts, a holographic panel appeared in front of him.

[Congratulations! Because of your unpreceded and rapid growth, the Akashic Records has deemed you worthy.]

['Akashic System' has been successfully binded.]

[It is detected that you had made some achievements that no one had ever achieved.]

[You are the first god to ever escape the 'True Death.]

[You have obtained 'Legendary Celestial Cat' as a reward.]

[You are the first god to become a mortal without using the method of incarnation.]

[You have obtained 'Perfect Status Immunity' as a reward.]

Akashic Record?

As a former god, Alex knew what it is. It is the compendium of all universal events, thought words, magic, skills, divine power, emotions and many other more that have ever occurred in the past, present or even the future, of every life forms or of everything in the vast universe.

The Akashic Records are responsible of the creation of skills, how a mortal could use magic, or even how gods could use the divine powers. It is something that not even the gods could reach or to be connected with.

Even in his prime before he had been forgotten and lost his authorities, Alex didn't even heard that someone could access it. Not even the strongest god or gods was able to.

Although he didn't know why this system had appeared to him, but anyway it was actually a good thing. It was necessary to have a certain strength to have a stable footing in this world.

The system is a more advanced version of the status on the back that everyone have. Not only did it grant the user the ability to check his status anytime, but it also granted quests and tasks which upon completion will award the user with skill points, skills, items and other fantastic rewards. He also checked the other function of the system.

[System Main Menu:

A. Character

B. Quests

C. Inventory

D. Shop

E. Map ]

The system has 5 main function.

Alex looked expressionless at the hologram. The character option is as you know, where you can see the changes in the status window. Next is quest, a quest, or mission, that may complete in order to gain a reward. Alex looked at the Quests available to him.

[Quests: No quests has been triggered and available at this moment.]

Quests provided missions to the host; completion of these mission rewards system points and some skills or even items. Alex inspected the Inventory option seeing that the Quest was still blank at the moment.

[Inventory: Can store items endlessly as long as it is not a living being.]

It may be simple at first glance but actually it's not.

'Store Item endlessly? Seriously? The inventory is totally limitless?'

Alex immediately proceeded at the shop function. He saw several weapons, armors with different rarities on the shop. However there's something that had caught his attention.

"Mangekyo?"

Mangekyo Sharingan is the powerful mode of Sharingan, awakening this eyes not only increase the power of eyes, but also, each eyes contains formidable eye techniques.

However awakening Mangekyo Sharingan not only gave powerful eyes techniques, but the eyes will also receive a kind of curse. Mangekyo Sharingan varies with the user, and its excessive use can cause decline in vision and step by step lead towards darkness, and after that blindness.

Based on Itachi Uchiha's memory, only those peoples who had awakened Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, can break this curse of Mangekyo Sharingan, as well as using those eyes techniques won't lead then towards blindness, and their eyes would have eternal light.

On the Uchiha clan's history that Itachi remembers, Uchiha Madara had used the ability of this Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan to conquer various tribes, leading Uchiha clan to achieve the most flourishing time. And became one of the two most powerful clan along with Senju clan.

In that world, there was only 6 people from Uchiha clan who had awakened Mangekyo Sharingan. They were Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Izuna, Uchiha Shisui, Uchiha Obito, Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke.

(#A/N: Don't talk about anime fillers, in the series, these people were the very highlighted people who got Mangekyo Sharingan. Well feel free to comment your opinion.)

And in this system from the Akashic Records, Alex could buy the Mangekyo Sharingan that is based on these 7 peoples to select. And according to the system, he could select to awaken all 7 of them as long as he got enough points for it.

He didn't have enough points to open all 6 of them or even just a single one as every Mangekyo is priced at 10 million points, and he also didn't know whether he would have the curse of blindness after awakening Mangekyo Sharingan.

"Uchiha Obito had awakened a Mangekyo Sharingan."

Alex muttered to himself. In Itachi's memory or from what he knew, he should have been dead since he was still a kid because of a certain accident. So Alex was confused for a while on how come he had a Mangekyo.

(Author Notes#: Itachi died not knowing the Madara he knew was Obito all along or atleast, that's what I believed.)

Suddenly as he was being confused, memories about Obito immediately rushed into his mind. It took him a while to realize that this memories came from Minato after his fight against Obito as an Edo Tensei.

With the memories of Minato, he had already made his decision for whose Mangekyo Sharingan to awaken first.

As he had used Uchiha Itachi's soul to create his mortal body, it was guaranteed he would awaken this sooner or later. With that, he had made a decision to buy the Mangekyo of Uchiha Obito. Uchiha Obito's Mangekyo possessed Kamui ability, and it inclined towards space which greatly interested him.

However that was just in the future as he still didn't have the ability to buy it.

(Author Notes#:

The system will not be a leveling system like most novels. The system will follow the system of the very famous masterpiece 'Second Life Ranker'.

If you had read this masterpiece already, hope you know what I mean. Also, you people don't have to worry as the system will fit in the world of danmachi without being messed up. Probably.)
