Myth Of A Dragon - 10 System

Zeke was somewhat excited about the rewards. He didn’t care much about xp, but he couldn’t wait to know how he could operate the system. It was weird for him to have floating boxes appear in his vision especially if does not have control over it.

Zeke thought there would be an interface showing him how to do it, but he didn’t expect the ‘manual’ to be in a form of information memory. He suddenly felt a headache, as if his head is going to explode. Zeke gritted his teeth, finding the experience somewhat tolerable but troublesome. The headache faded after a few seconds like it never existed. Zeke decided not to bother with it anymore and focused himself on the new memories.

According to the memories he got, he only needs to utter “status” in his mind and his stats would come up. He could also check other people’s stats by looking over them and uttering “check status”. As for other features, he’ll know when it unlocks in the future. Apparently, he will automatically get the Lvl 1 System when he turns half a year old, and to upgrade it, quests would need to be completed. The System right now is only lvl 0, and it can only show people’s names and stats. He didn’t know why he can’t see the stats before, but he just brushed it off. The manual also specifically noted that the numbers are the close estimation of their power and not the exact since they don’t possess a system themselves, thus there’s no way to accurately get the exact stat numbers. There will be a ‘shop’ in the lvl 1 System, albeit not the full complete version of the System’s shop. Only a handful would be sold and according to the manual, it’s all Pandora’s worldly belongings that he didn’t need, and it also heavily emphasized Pandora’s innocence, saying he didn’t steal any of it and it was instead rightfully earned. To access the whole shop, he would need to upgrade the system to an unknown level. Zeke guessed that it was also for his own safety, as he might get too greedy and buy an item that’s out of his level.

Zeke was overjoyed. Although his system felt a bit restricted as of now, he felt that this opened up new possibilities for his future path. He already vaguely mapped out the direction of his life, and he planned to follow it unless something came up. He planned to train a bit first, then go to a prestigious school to widen his view and strengthen himself. One had to say that Zeke’s plan is very grand and seems to be smooth. If someone were to hear that from a nearly half a year old infant, they would drop their jaws. This infant’s mind clearly doesn’t match his physical body. He already thought of his path and he seems to find it easy enough as he didn’t mention any roadblocks. Of course, Zeke knew that his path would not be as easy as it is, but he steeled himself to face it all using all the cards in his sleeve.

He then tried to use his power on his father, Charles, who was sitting in their sofa looking defeated.

As he was uttering the phrase in his mind, a floating interface appeared in his view.

This time, There are additional texts in the box besides the name. Zeke subconsciously knew the stats from his memories. The CP stands for Combat Power, which estimates the person’s combat prowess. Zeke knew that stats alone doesn’t mean a person is good at combat. Tactics and other outside tools needed to be considered too, such as how a person utilizes his techniques. Even though Zeke knew his father’s CP, he didn’t have anyone to compare it off, but he sensed that this number is quite high. Zeke made sure to check his mother later on.

S stands for strength. This is how powerful a person’s physical body is. Strength referred to how much power the body is capable of exerting for a long amount of time. A stands for Agility. This referred to how fast his father could move during combat. E stands for endurance, which refers to how long his father could fight. I stands for Intelligence, which refers to how much mana his Father had. Besides being amazed, Zeke didn’t have anyone to compare it from, so he didn’t know the extent of his father’s prowess. Zeke also knew that the system’s level is low, hence he could only see four stats right now. According to the manual, those four are the summarized power of the individual. As his system levels up, he might see new stats aside from the four.

‘O, I forgot about myself.’

Zeke wondered if his brain is actually that of an old man. While his mother is still away, he forgot that he still had his own stats to compare to his father. Of course, Zeke wasn’t expecting much since he knew his body is still that of an infant.

‘…. Fuck.’

Zeke was surprised. He expected it to be so low, but he never thought he only had 1. However, after thinking about it, he didn’t mind it much anymore as he still had a long way to go. There’s still 36 or so years before he could catch up to his father’s age. Perhaps he could surpass his father before reaching that age?

Zeke hadn’t acknowledged the fact that his father didn’t have a system to help him. His stats are all based on pure training, unlike Zeke’s future training, which would include the system’s help. Zeke could be considered to be born with a silver spoon in his mouth in terms of potential. It was truly a good combination to have Zeke’s Intelligence partnered with the System’s training and help. Who knows how Zeke will end up in the future?

A shout was heard from the kitchen.

“Hun! Prepare the table!”

“Got it!” Charles stood up and left.

‘Mother seems to be done preparing our meal. I’ll check her stats later. Hmm, where’s the other reward? I recall it’s a quest, right?’

Zeke expected a floating box to appear, but there were no pop-ups this time. He shrugged and didn’t bother about it anymore. When he turns half a year old next week, he planned to find it in his Lvl 1 System.

Soon after, Charles came back and picked up Zeke. He was then placed in a pretty secure chair that’s high enough for him. His seat is positioned beside his mother as she’s the one spoonfeeding him. His father didn’t want to do it, and Zeke guessed that his father isn’t a fan of taking care of babies. Zeke understood and sympathized with Charles as he, too, isn’t fond of them.

Catherine went out of the kitchen and sat in her seat opposite to Charles. She then started spoonfeeding Zeke while also eating her fill. Zeke looked at her mother and checked her stats.
