Nathan and Natalie just finished their dinner and went their own ways.

Natalie went to the bathroom to take a bath, while Nathan sat on the sofa and turned on the tv.

While watching the tv, Nathan noticed something from Natalie’s backpack that she left on the floor, beside the sofa.

“Hmm? Did she buy that book?”

Nathan saw the book titled, Illuminati peeking out of the bag.

Curious of what it is, Nathan picked it up from the bag.

“Illuminati?” Seeing that name, Nathan can’t help but think of the name of that fictional organization that was said to control the Earth from his previous life.

Thinking about that, Nathan chuckled, “It was such a fun conspiracy theory to think about. Conspiracy theories will always attract your interest whether you believe them or not.”

Next, Nathan opened the book to take a look at it’s content out of curiosity.

“Hmm, is this a fictional story?” Said Nathan as he turned the page nonchalantly.

Nathan read the book without much thought into it, but as continue reading page after page, the more his eyes widened with a look of evident shock.

“This, this, this can’t be real, right!?”

Just as he said that, as if on cue, the system notification appeared in front of him.

Nathan turned his eyes to it and he couldn’t help but be more shocked.

[Congratulations! You have completed the mission!

Mission: Research about this world’s no.1 villain.

Reward: Soul Talent Awakener ×2]

At the same time, two syringes appeared on Nathan’s hands without any warning.

Nathan looks at the syringes in his hands with a dumbfounded look.

“What the hell just happened!?”

Things happened too fast for Nathan to let all of it sync in on his head.

“Ah, damn it, let me sit down and process all of this for a second!”

Nathan shook his head to fix himself up and also slapped his face which caused him to yelp, “Ouch!”

“Shouldn’t have done that.” He rubs his cheek as he regrets slapping himself.

After a while, Nathan recovered and looked at the two syringes in his hands.

Inside these syringes is a green viscous liquid that seems to glisten from time to time.

“What the hell are these ‘awakeners’ for?” Asked Nathan,

Then a screen appeared right in front of his eyes, containing the basic information about the things on his hands.

[Soul Talent Awakener: Every being in the universe has a talent of their own that is unique to them. But most beings have no chance to ever have this talent that is hidden in their soul, awakened. With the help of these awakeners, people now have a higher probability of awakening their soul talent.]

After reading that, Nathan has a thoughtful look, pondering about some things.

Then he said, “Isn’t this a very crucial thing, not just for humans of this earth, but also for every other being out there in the universe?”

Being a transmigrator himself, Nathan was not surprised about the fact that there are other creatures living out there in the far universe.

Plus, doesn’t he have a system?

Those creatures are not what Nathan is interested in, but the things that he has on his hands.

Nathan called out the system to ask some questions,

“System!”

[Yes, host?] The system responded with a mechanical voice.

Hearing the system, Nathan asked, “Is this thing safe to use for anyone?”

[Yes, host! Anyone can use the awakener, be it a man or a woman, young or old, can freely use it without restrictions.]

‘That means Natalie can also use it. That’s good, now I won’t have to worry about something happening to her if she got some good talent.’ Nathan thought as he glanced at the direction of the bathroom for a second.

Since he got two awakeners, he can use one while Natalie also uses one.

But now, the problem is how he should explain certain things to Natalie.

Nathan decided to think about that later and stopped caring about it for now.

He turned his focus back to the system and thought about another thing, so he asked,

“System, does taking this have any side effects or something that might possibly cause any harm to the user?”

[Taking awakener will not cause any harmful effect to the user unless the soul talent that awakened has negative effects on it.]

[A good example of that in the history of the universe is, Mad Boomer. Boomer had a soul talent that if he ever got angry, he would explode. Unfortunately, Boomer has an explosive personality which in the end caused him to die.]

Hearing the words of the system, Nathan was stunned for a few seconds, not knowing how to react.

The only thing that Nathan can say is that Mad Boomer was too mad for his own good.

But the story told by the system also made Nathan realize something.

“So, Soul talents won’t always be something good for you, huh.”

[That is correct, host!]

That realization made Nathan hesitate whether he should use this awakener or not.

Nathan can’t decide on what to do, so he said,

“System, is there any way for me to know what talent a person has before using the awakener?”

Nathan asked unsurely, not expecting any positive answer from the system.

But the system really has a way!

[Yes, host! Knowing the talent before going through awakening has been a law on some worlds after the example of Mad Boomer.]

“Really!? Then hurry up and tell me!” Urge Nathan excitedly,

[There are two ways to know of one’s talent. First is the STS Capsule or Soul Talent Scanner Capsule. STS Capsule can scan a person’s biological data that contains their information to know beforehand the talent they will awaken.]

Nathan, who got all excited from the positive response of the system, became dejected again.

“STS Capsule, where the hell am I supposed to look for that!?”

Being a human from Earth, Nathan knows that there’s no such thing as an STS Capsule that exists here.

At least none that he knows of.

In the end, Nathan lost hope and again and sigh dejectedly,

“Sigh… I won’t expect anything anymore, just tell me what is the second way immediately so that we’ll be done with this.”

After Nathan said that, the mechanical voice of the system proceeds to tell him the second way.
