Chapter 5 - Cosmic points

Drip... Drip... Drip

(Dripping of water coming from the Kitchen)

Zoran opens his eyes as he sees himself in a familiar ceiling. Outside the window, lights could be seen. It seems like the evening came. Zoran closes his eyes for a second before recalling what happened before. 

Sigh. 

"Right... I'm at my house right now... Unexpectedly this tattered house was not destroyed or change. It's really unexpected."

While massaging the side part of his cheeks.

Zoran's face was really hurt that Nel guy was just too much. 

'Is it because I retorted myself? Crap where was the freedom of speech they are talking about? Is it still available?'

Zoran sigh as he tried to get up. His stomach was grumbling it says it needs food. Tsk.

Daily needs are really necessary.

Zoran grabs a pack of noddles from who knows how. Zoran, because of the events that have been thrown at him, he forgot to think straight. He then pours hot water into it from the kitchen. He waited for about 3 minutes before he finally eats it. 

After he finishes his snack like dinner, he notices a small [!] sign on his vision it was the screen projection that was shining. When Zoran tried to think of clicking it, it began to show what was inside. 

He was surprised! To think there was this function after all. 

[Auto-looting acquired cosmos points]

Zoran's mouth opens wide as he stares at the visual screen in front of him. He tried to pinch his cheek to prove if it is true. He never thought luck finally found its way. 

He gulps his saliva as he stares at the section where it says to open or not.

"But what's the use of these points by the way?"

After a minute of staring and thinking Zoran finally got his answer.

After he clicks the open button the screen changes into a big [?].

He waited and was getting impatient at the same time nervous. 

[Ding!]

[10 cosmic points acquired]

[Would you like to integrate in order to level up?]

Zoran trembled while clenching his hand. He finally could see it.

"Thus it mean I could level myself and become like them? Hahahah!! Heaven really favored me this time!"

"Hahaha, I think my son would really be proud of my accomplishment if he ever knows about this!"

Zoran hearty laughs but then suddenly stop.

"Ha... Haha... Hahaha (awkwardly laugh) I forgot his not my use to be a son anymore"

Zoran sadly said.

His son was a very sweet child when he was young he obeys and behaves so much that Zoran would never encounter any problem at all.

Thinking about that Zoran can only sigh in sadness.

Zoran shakes his head as he looks at the panel in his view.

Zoran excitedly waited for the countdown while feeling the sudden strength flowing through his veins. Not only he could feel it but it was so visible from the outside a blue-red energy traces every acupoint he had all over his body.

Zoran wonders what miraculously this energy was. His thoughts cannot keep up to how this world works even this thing he had in his mind.

[Name: Zoran Zavorich

Tier/Rank: 2 apprentice warrior

Potential: Unknown

Cosmic points: 0

Shop]

Zoran can't help but impress by the sudden gain of strength he knows that with his current situation it was impossible to improve since what he learned on the report the human has a small pouch that can carry KI or what we call life energy in the environment. At the time went on if an old individual tried to cultivate he/she would be in trouble since his/her sac cannot handle the vigorous power of the KI.

So he was surprised that there was no hindrance or something when he leveled up.

But what shock Zoran the most was the new option that the system brought upon. Shop... every human knows what is a shop. Right as we know, it was a market where you can buy something you need. So Zoran felt like if he had more of the cosmic point he could buy what he needed in the shop of the system.

"Now I know why there are Cosmic points. So it would not only help level me up but I guess it would also be used as a currency for the shop"

Zoran was so excited that he started to dance with his old bones.

Clang!

"Ah?"

Zoran stops his maniac dance which is of course not suitable for his age. He looks at the side of the sofa where the door at. There, a girl around 15 years old with tattered clothes and disheveled hair look at him dumbfoundedly.

"W-who are you? What are you doing in my house?"

"Ha...haha...hahaha ahm. Little girl you don't have to be afraid okay grandpa is not a bad guy"

Zoran slowly walks towards the teenage girl. but it made the girl even more wary about him and step backward.

"S-stop stay right there! Don't come f-forward or... or I-will hit you...you"

While the teenage girl said her words she looks around looking for something. after a while, the girl finally sees a broom near the side of the door.

"W-with this!"

Zoran can't help but laugh when he sees the girl's cute expression. looking at her right now it seems like she was really nervous and afraid.

"Look girl you don't know this but I was the owner of this house in the first place. I know I don't have proof but take a look okay! you will see something amazing!"

"I don't believe you! how can this be yours? There's no one living in this area except me"

"You don't understand! I really own this house okay there was even a small tunnel I created down here!"

Zoran pointed to the middle of the sofa where it was covered with a floor mat. Zoran uncovers the floor mat revealing a small wooden door.

The girl was shocked he lived in this house for more than 2 years now and she didn't find anything amiss. The girl lived here because for some reason no one seems to bother going to this place when she found it.

"I-it's just a coincidence that you were able to find it. But still, you have to get out!"

"Hey! It's not fair it's really my house! You can't do this! H-Hey At least let me get my things inside okay!? This girl." 

"Humph! Get it Fast!"
