As we got out of taxi, I look towards the 3 story appartment building.
After Dad paid the fare, Mom took me into the building.
We walked in and dad soon followed. We went up the stairs till the second floor.
After that we moved toward the 3rd on the left from the stairs as mom ringed the bell on the door.
" Coming, wait a sec." I heard a women's voice from inside.
As the door opened , i look upon a woman looking in her late 20s. A hot brunette with dark brown eyes.
"Mary, Richard! Its good too see you come in."
She explains as she hugged mary and let us in.
As i am about to observe the house the house, i am engulfed in a hug.
"How is little sweety petee, doing huh you don't even come to vist often nowadays. Don't you miss your aunt and uncle anymore?" As she releases me to ask a question. As she walks us into the living room.
" Aunt May we were just here last weekend. And of course i missed you but i had a fever so mom wouldn't let me come here to play. " i rebuted with an eye roll. But put on a cute act right after.
" Ben isn't home May ?, I thought he'd be home its quiet early in the morning." Says Richard as he checks his watch .
Aunt May sighs " You know how he is with his tools. He ordered some on Friday and went to pick them up. Anyway why didn't you tell me Peter was sick we would have come over to look after him." She side-hugs me as she asks.
"We didn't want to impose, and it was really hectic time. Peter had a fever, we just finished our research and we just had our hands full." She says to May who realsed me from the hug and gets up.
"Huff, Fine wait here a bit i'll get some refreshments. Anyone hungy, should i set some food." Asks May as she moves towards the kitchen.
"Oh, No we had some sandwiches earlier. I'll help out in the kitchen." says Mary as she soon follows May.
I was about to excuse myself for one on one with the System as May leans from the kitchen door and says. " Peter your toys and books, i put them in guest bedroom. " And she goes back.
' Best Aunt Ever ' " Ok, Aunt May i'll go and play in the guest bedroom a bit then." as i run out of the living room.
The house consisted of 2 bedrooms that had their own toilets. A smaller room that was now converted into a store room , The living room that had an old box T.V., A bathroom and the kitchen.
' Uncle Ben is just a mechanic now he was a soldier before. And Aunt May is a Nurse in a hospital I think. They aren't rich but they are not poor either.' As i walk into the guest bedroom i close the door behind me as i don't want anyone to think that i am crazy talking to myself.
The room just has a single bed parallel to the entrance door, right besides the window that has its curtains drawn closed. A bedside table with some stuff on in and a cupboard built into wall right besides the toilet door on the wall to the left of the entrance.
'Wait the system said i could talk to it in my mind right?'
As i walk towards the bedside table their i see some small toy cars and plastic soldiers. A chess board and some books.
'Periodic Table, Linear Equations, A.B.C Solutions. Whoa new books, Uncle Ben must have gotten them for me.' As i pick a book and sit on the bed and start flipping through it. I call out in my mind.
' System '
*DING. . . Yes HOST.*
' So it can read my mind, Anyway what were you saying in the hospital? Something about Universal laws.? '
*DING. . . Host does not have the authority for more detailed information about this subject.*
' What why !? How do i get this authority then?. '
*DING. . . HOST is not powerful enough. Please get good. ' Hehehe ' *
' I can hear the smugness in your monotone voice. Come on i'm sorry for messing with you before tell me already whats wrong with my body? '
*DING. . . Host's Mind is too weak to handle this sensitivite information.*
' Oh, I kind of get it, the information is too high of a level for the current me. Still how would i go about increasing my level? System?? '
* DING. . . Host this multiverse in not a leveling based one. As for increasing your status host has 4 options.*
' Oh yeah, i saw on my status. Body, Mind and Soul .Right can you show me my status screen again.

' I have quite alot of useful skills. I should use observe more often from now on. System tell me what are the uses of titles and specifically the one i have. '
*Ding. . . Host Titles are a descriptive or distinctive name that is earned or chosen through an individual's action.
Host's title the One Soul was gained due to two distinct individuals merging to become one soul.*
*One Soul : No Being below 20 points in his soul stat can affect or inspect Host's soul without your permission. *
' Ok its like an achievement with perks. Ok i'll ask the rest later first tell me about the ways to increase my stats is it like quests or something. '
* DING. . .Host is correct one of the way to gain points, skills, titles and items is through quests.
But it will only be unlocked at the end of the tutotrial.*
' What do you mean tutorial ? If i take this in gaming standard doesn't that mean my game or life hasn't even started yet? '
*DING. . . Does Host want to end the tutotrial.*
' No! No, if it helps me out in this new life then keep it going. Tell me about the other ways then.'
*DING. . . The other two ways are either by training or by points being gifted to individuals by their patrons. *
' Hum, Ok. How much do you need to train to get a point. Wait a sec how does one even trains the soul? '
*DING. . . An average person needs to train at least 10 years straight to gain 1- 2 points in body.
An average person has to have knowledge of over 10 years or creativity or wisdom to match it to gain 1 - 2 points in Mind stat.*
*Host does not meet the requirement of (Mind 10) for increasing the stat value of the soul.*
' Ok, Too much information i'll analyse it later in one of my bout to calmness. Just tell me the last way of increasing stats i am getting sidetracked. '
* DING. . . The last way is by an external source.*
' What, do you mean? Like items or like potions that are in game? '
*DING. . . In broad terms, Yes item would be the correct term.*
' Ok, How does the calmness thing work? Is it passive or active, I mean it has something to do with the skills right?.
* DING. . . Yes, It is the HOST's skills. It is upto Host to decide how to use them passively or actively. Any more information on this topic is Unauthorised to Host.*
As i Ponder on the information dumped on me, I decided to try to use some of the skills. so i ask the system. ' How do i use the skills? '
*DING. . .Host just has to think about using them in his mind.*
' Ok lets try this. Calm Mind. . . ' As i waited to feel something, nothing happened. As i try a few more times with the other skills , still nothing happenes.
' Hum, am i doing something wrong system? '
*DING. . . Host is calling out their names not thinking about using them. ' Haha idiot' *
' Oh yeah haha ' I laughed sarcasticly feeling embarrassed.
' Ok , lets do this one more time , work Calm Mind work. ' i close my eyes and concentrate and i feel a tickling sensation in my brain then i feel a rush.
My brain stats to compile and sort all the information i got from the system just now. Just as i began to enjoy it . It stops.
' What happened i just used it why did it stop ? '
Just as i am about to ask the system, i see system screen infront of me and i start reading the words on it.
*DING. . .Host has used skill [Calm Mind].*
*DING. . .Skill [Calm Mind] has started the process of comping recent information into host's mind.*
*DING. . .Skill [Calm Mind] has finished comping new information.*
*DING. . .Host has lost concentration skill
[Calm Mind] has stopped working.*
After i finish reading i understand what happened.
I could feel the information the system gave me ready for instant access.
'That was awesome, lets try other skills too.'
As i got the feel of using the skill, I didn't need to
close my eyes this time to use the other ones.
*DING. . .Host has used skill [Shape Shifting].*
*DING. . .Skill has failed to be used requirements not met. ( BODY :3 MIND :3 SOUL :3 )*
' Ok, I expected that, it likes an OP skill if i had free reigns in using it, I would probably turn into godzilla and annihilate everything right from the get go. ' as i fantasize about turing into a huge monster and causing distruction i try other skills.
