Chapter 7 - Journey

"So.. Mr. Poop, can I know where did you come from?" Ambrey asked with a smile. I know now why I can't talk to her when I am using /Take Over/. It is not that the skill is not working, it is because.. I do not really have a good experience in talking to anyone. I don't have anyone to converse with. I always stutter. That's the reason why I don't have any job. It is because of the INTERVIEWS! I am really a shy person and I always tend to talk to myself more often.

"Pooooop?", Poop said. I don't know what Poop was thinking? Can't he understand her or he just wants to say Poop?  Well, the system said that he is as smart as 2 people and just learning like a baby so it's understandable.

"Huh? Can't you understand me?", Ambrey said with a confused look on her face. Wow, she is so cute when she squinted her eyes. 

"Poop, understand!", Poop said pridefully. Maybe he can really understand and just lacking vocabulary.  

"Ohh.. maybe you can't just express your self. Are you somehow lacking in knowledge in my language?", Ambrey said while nodding. I think we have the same line of thought now. Ambrey my angel! I think we are meant to be!

"Poop no language!", Poop said. He can really understand her huh. But, he is learning really fast, Don't you think so system?

[System] That's the power of intelligence that host always ignores.

"....", I can't argue with that. I really ignored int attribute and will keep ignoring it for the time being. Not that I'm afraid that Poop would steal my Ambrey. No, not a chance. No.. not really! Believe me!

"hmm.. seems like I am right. You have a poor vocabulary. It is weird because you already look like a teenager ghoul now but you still lacked the words to speak.  Well, we can leave that for later. Now Mr. Poop, I am currently on an adventure! Would you like to come with me and slay the sleeping dragon in this deserted area?",  Ambrey said. 

Hmm.. uhuh. An adventure to kill the dragon huh. Wait... a d-d-dragon? A what? Are you kidding me? Ambrey my angel! That is really dangerous! What? Do you think I am afraid? No, I am not! Definitely not! I am just concerned about my wife's safety!

[System] Cowardly Skill Obtained!

"huh? Damn you System! Who's coward?!?", I shouted at the system

[System] Cowardly Skill evolve into Shamelessly coward 

"Who's afraid of whom? huh? It's just a lizard with a wing! Nothing special!"

[System] Shamelessly Coward Level up to 10.

"...." I am speechless. I can't beat this system

"Mr. Poop, what do you think? Would you like to accompany me?", Ambrey said with a bright smile. No one can reject that smile.

"Poop, tell her not to go! It is full of danger!"

"Poop go!", Poop said.

Oh no. I am so dead. Well it's not that I am alive at all.

"Great! Let's start the adventure!", Ambrey said while standing up. We are so close to each other but Poop can smell her fragrance from his position. For Poop it was nothing but for me, this is the smell of heaven! 

"Poop!", Poop said energetically. I do not know Poop if you can hear me but..

"You better not steal my girl Poop or I will punch you really hard!", I said.

"Pooop?", Poop tilted his head and have a confused face.

Huh? Did my words just went through him?

"Huh? Mr. Poop what are you standing there for? Let us go! Or you will be left behind!", Ambrey giggles. We just met but it's like she was my best friend already. What an honest and good-natured girl. 

[System] And the adventures of an Angle-like beauty, a powerful handsome ghoul and a parasitic soul with worst luck begins.  

"...." What is with system now? Starting to narrate my life now? And what is with that narration. 

I am speechless

It has been 3 months since Ambrey and I met.  This is a long journey and I'm not enjoying it at all. At first, it was fun until Poop manages to learn to speak properly. In less than 3 months, Poop can now converse to Ambrey although it's still not proper it's still frustrating me. How come he can talk to the girl of my dream while I can't!

[System] Because you're an idiot.

Ugh! I want to die! 

"You're not alive", system replied.

This past 3 months was full of surprises. I learned so much about Ambrey. She's the princess of this world Arrant. She entered a dungeon alone to gain fighting experience but something weird happen afterwards. Once she left the dungeon there's no living being outside the entrance, it's supposed to be packed with humans and demi-humans selling weapons and stuffs but there's no one. Like a deserted place, and Mr. Poop was the first living being she saw that did not attacked her. Although she's a princess she can really fight well using her guns and rocker launcher. Just watching her fight is like watching an angel dancing, so beautiful.

While traveling this past 3 months Mr. Poop became level 89. Quite fast, you say? Nope. That's not true because we fight atleast twice everyday. Those blood wolf. They never end. We also encountered some Poisonous Bears and Blue fang boars. They're meat taste good, I'm telling you. Well, they're not a problem because I know their weakness because of my 50000 years worth of knowledge hehehe.

"This is the Dragons Pass, this is the dungeon where the dragon lives.", Ambrey

I took used /Take over/ to inquire more about.

"W-why.. Ne-need to.. to.. K-kill dragon?" God, I'm really awkward. I ended /Take over/ to reserve it for later.

"Mr. Poop, there's a prophecy a really really old prophecy that was passed through generations. It said that, Arrant will die, every good will perish, heroes will rise, slain the dragon of time, the final light will shine", Ambrey

Poop looked at her puzzled. But she just smiles and continues to go near the Dragons pass.

"System, what do you think about the prophecy?", I asked.

Ding! "I think.. Host should worry about how to survive before that prophecy",

"God da*m you! You little piece of sh*t!"

This system, really! I die. You die! You hear that?

"system would not die after the host dies,. I just need to find new host."

"..." I'm speechless
