System Evolution Of Soul - zChapter 278
Well, while Milene’s problems seem to have been fixed for now, I still didn’t feel comfortable leaving all the store finances to her. If I leave her in charge of the weapons shop, then maybe when I return I could find all the girls turned into slaves like her is now!
I actually spoke seriously with Saya about not letting Milene do business on her own… although the latter seemed quite grumpy and surely she want to say some bad things, in the end, she could only keep quiet. To be honest, maybe I was a little wishing that she would do something bad…it seems that “restraint equipment” does not fulfill its function very well since providing a wish in the master that his slave do bad things. Although… curiously, even knowing this I still cannot have any objection about this one.
As for my other slave Celi-chan, her status seemed suitable for her. The only thing that surprised me a bit about her was discovering that she was a hybrid between a hobbit and a human… Milene had previously told me her age, and so I just thought she was a girl with short stature, but now I can see that seems there was something more about this.
…Remembering the little twins who would take over the inn in this place, I can’t help but think that one of her parents would be someone with the characteristics of a 10-year-old child! I do not know if in Gaia this is more normal than my disposition to some rejection of such a partner… anyway, I do not think it is something quite normal since I do not know many couples between different races in this Area.
Although more than for a moral reason, I believe this is because the characteristics that are considered attractive to one breed may be different for others. Well, since people also say that love is something universal, then interracial couples should be not few either. Without going too far, even I have by my side a little harpy and a goul that I consider my women after all.
But as is also common, the people who oppose this type of relationship are not few either. In fact, when I questioned Celi-chan a bit about herself, she seemed a bit nervous when she spoke to me about this, she even wondering if I disliked mixed-race people…
Of course, my answer to this was an instant one, that sort of thing did not concern me. Really, how I might dislike such a nice girl like her just to be a mixed-race?
While it is true that I find the fact of the union of their parents a bit surprising, for me this was more due to concepts of morality and not for reasons of purity, superiority, and those things that are what people with hatred towards this defend.
The good thing is that in this Area there is not much rejection towards people of mixed race, so Celi-chan maybe only had to put up with the curious looks of people for being the daughter of a couple of two races.
Besides, it can be said that she went benefit from this too. Thanks to the fact that one of her parents was a hobbit she received the innate ability of this breed, [Sweetness]. This ability was very similar to [Charm] ability which seems to be the innate ability of Lena’s race, although its effects seem to be slightly weaker than this one.
[Sweetness]
Passive.
The user of this ability produces a feeling of sympathy in other people.
Retention of youth [Large]
This ability of [Sweetness] instead of creating a s.e.x.u.a.l attraction in others like [Charm], this one produced a feeling of wanting to protect and help the person with that ability. Also, very likely because the most younger the person of this skill is then better the effect is, so the ability makes the person look younger than what the user really is.
…Although her ability maybe weakened a bit since Celi-chan was a hybrid, I think that in her case it was somewhat beneficial. Probably a purebred habits instead of just a “retention”, their age is “stuck” so that not to exceed the aspect of someone of 10 years…in her case, instead of having the appearance of a 19-year-old girl, she looks like she has some 15 years.
If you ask me, I think a lot of women would be envious of this ability…
“Haruna, I think you will quickly adapt to this place quickly, plus your monsters will surely become stronger here.”
“Yes, don’t worry Alexander”
“Alexander-onisan… are you leaving now?” I thought I could see you more often now that we’ve come here… ”
“That’s true Alex-onichan!”
Finally, I say goodbye to Haruna. I was a bit concerned as she was keeping busy with school affairs and here she probably didn’t have a specific job to do, but apparently this didn’t seem to affect her.
Well, from what I’ve talked with her, her taking over of the HOTD schools/orphanages was more because I had put her in charge of that… probably if it wasn’t for her concern for the children then for her that work would have been more of a burden.
Haruna was quite happy just to see the children having a good life, and now that she was in Gaia, then she probably focused more on taking care of her daughter and her little friend that was approaching me with puppy eyes while complaining a bit about my departure.
Also as the woman with more age among all the girls in the mansion, all the girls seem to respect her quite a bit. So I’m sure all the other girls will help her adapt quickly to this world.
There were also her pets… among these, her big cat perhaps because it was summoned with an object from my system, this one seemed to feel certain respect or appreciation towards me. Always when it saw me liked to rub its head against my body… well, since this one has quite a fluffy coat and it’s kind of nice, so I don’t have many complaints about this.
This also seems to be the same for Iruka-chan’s sea creature, although since it was spending most of the time in its poke-ball, I didn’t have much interaction with this one.
Probably the only pet of these girls that I had a problem with was Haruna’s damn dog… this bastard instead of wagging his tail when looks at me, show me his teeth roaring. Although it seems that he is not stupid… when Scythe, Vrana, or his master are present, this damn even shows me his stomach meekly!
I want to believe that he is simply like a child who feels that his mother’s attention will be stolen if she gets a mate… if this damn thing considers Haruna as his property, then I will have to sterilize that dog. For his sake, I really hope that he learns from Alice-chan’s dog who happily wags his tail and tries to lick my face when he sees me.
Well, thanks to these girls’ pets all of them have benefited from this. The little girls above her head now I can see that they are level [53] and [41], and since Haruna’s monsters are stronger and they apparently only concentrated on hunting stronger zombies or monsters, thanks to that the status of she did not lose to the girls who were in Gaia… she even surpassed some of them.

While patting the heads of the little girls and Vrana who had also approached along with them, I checked Haruna’s status. Seeing this one, I don’t think I have to worry about her safety since even though she did not develop to fight, the two beasts that accompany her should even be able to fight against a person in the 9th limit together.
I was also a little worried about this little winged girl, I didn’t want her to think that I would abandon her again… the good thing is that since Iruka-chan and Alice-chan who she had gotten along with very well when we were in HOTD are here now, she probably doesn’t feel so lonely.
“… If you two do a good job of protecting Haruna, then I may give you a name later. So do your best… ”
Setting my eyes on the two monsters mentioned above, I tell this in words and by the bond created by the [Tame] skill to make it more clear to them. I haven’t used that ability in a while, so I can name something now.
I have not done it because it is better to do it when this dog and cat they cannot get stronger if they reach a stalemate… also, although with the white cat I don’t have any problems in doing it so that strengthens itself and better protects Haruna. On the other hand, the damn dog maybe if it gets too strong this one can think that now is the Alpha in our group…
Seeing how the cat quickly approaches and rubs his head on my leg meekly as he probably understood that this would benefit him greatly, and the dog just turns his head to another way as if he doesn’t care about this, I think this is not just my guess… maybe I should name it as [Plantón] or [Herpes] now…
“Wow~”
Seeing that the girls’ eyes go to the dog when I do that too, it begins to wag its tail and imitates Alice’s dog that always acted playfully… strangely, I can only understand that bark as a “Get out of here!”… damn dog, you really tempting your luck.
“Well then all of you take care… we’ll see you soon”
“”You too!””
With those words as parting, Me, Leona, and Revy go through the interdimensional rift that had by created a few seconds after my grimoire appeared. Since Leona and I have already been through this, we are not as surprised as Revy who was watching everything with curiosity. So as usual, the system notification rings in my head.
[Beep]
[Detecting interdimensional travel … the user can choose between the following options as system support
· Pay 10K crystals to choose a specific place to arrive in that world
· Pay 50M crystals to have a background of a leader of an organization in that world.
· Pay 20M crystals to have a background of a high-ranking henchman of an organization in that world.
· Pay 1M crystals to choose a part in the timeline of that world to reach]
Hearing the first notification from the system, I waited for a second just like what happened in Emilia-kun’s world but the seconds passed and that mechanical voice did not sound again…
Wasn’t Revy’s world very similar to Emilia-kun’s? I thought that the system would detect this and by not considering it a challenge for me, then it would offer me some restrictions to give me some benefits, but… this does not happen.
…is that the system this time thinks that it is so useless to go there that it does not even think to give me those options? Well, I was just going to try and get some weapons there, so I didn’t plan on taking those options from the beginning. So, not that this matters much.
When I thought about those things, as if the System read my thoughts… which it surely did, it clears my doubts.
[Beep]
[… Since the user intends to go specifically to the place where one of the girls next to him comes from, that place is considered the same as a level 10 zone of a level 1 Area in Gaia… so, as the energy level of this world is not very different From a level 1 Area on Gaia, the user will be able to continue to grow stronger without the need for a restriction.
Also, in that place people are constantly killing each other causing their level to constantly increase… people in the 7th to 9th limit is not so strange there]
…Now that I think about it, Revy’s level was quite high when I first saw her! It seems that my assumption that this was a world just like Emilia-kun’s was wrong… damn it! I thought I just had to be careful about firearms in that world, but now it seems that things are more complicated than I had thought!!
Well… probably what is the more dangerous for me are still the firearms from there, that has not changed. Now I just have to think of this as if there are people with skills in the use of these weapons being high, and so they are more dangerous because of this… haaa~.
Besides, there is no going back now. The good thing is that seeing the options of the System, I remembered that there was one to have a background in that world when hearing it, but then…
“Why the hell did you raise the price of that option so much? I clearly remember that for this I had to pay less than choosing a moment specific at the line of time in that world!! ”
[In the previous worlds you have gone to, stealing the destiny of a person who has not opened his energetic core probably the consciousness of the world would not complain about this, but… taking the destiny of the strongest people in a world in which they are regularly privileged by this one is much more difficult, so because of that the difference in cost…]
“…”
I wanted to continue complaining about this, but the explanation of the system seemed reasonable, and so I could only swallow my fury at these costs. Damn! Before coming to this world I had spent a lot of money to buy [Necklaces anticritical-G] for all the girls since I only had 3 of these that I got in the reward boxes of the system… these things even though they were only rank G cost almost the same as an F rank weapon! 25 million gold for each of these!!
Since Haruna also had one of these necklaces, in the end, I had to buy 11 of these! 275 million gold for everyone has one!! I had also left funds for the girls to have in case of emergency, half of the crystals that I got in HOTD before I came from that world, 25 million of these…
So with no other choice, I see my current funds with which I came to Revy’s world.
