It seems that the new title isn't the only thing that's new about my status. Before, the EXP cap used to read 12500000/12500000. But now, it reads 12500000/15000000. That means, I can level up further right? Is this what Net meant when he talked about growing stronger? So, in the game, I had already maxed out everything and couldn't go any further, as 200 was the highest level. But here, I can keep getting stronger huh? So then, what kind of monsters am I up against?
Also, this 'special attribute' thing is new as well. What does it mean by my special attribute is gluttony and mischief? Granted I tend to eat a lot, but I don't think that's what it's referring to. And as for the mischief part, I honestly have no clue.
Ah! I also found out that I can switch between my real body and this one. I don't know why this feature is available, but I guess it is convenient seeing as it would be bothersome going around as a demon since I'll need to get some information about this world. The stats of my real body have totally different stats from this one. The only problem is that the age of my real body seems to be in my teenage years for some reason.

This form doesn't have any special attributes, and it doesn't seem like I can level up any further with it either. Well, it's already a miracle that my real body has stats as high as this when in actuality, I used to start gasping for air just from walking to the convenience store down the street from my apartment.
Also, it appears that all the items in my inventory remain the same. Everything is exactly the same. It seems that Net really went through a great deal to cultivate his ideal champion. Now, as to how I'm going to go about increasing my influence. I have eight years to sufficiently influence the entirety of Elrev. I wonder how I'm going to go about it. If I understood what Net said correctly, then a good number of my competitors will decide to grow their influence through becoming a hero, or helping a hero. Which makes sense, seeing as just by joining up with the hero's party I'd be able to directly influence the world. And here in Elrev, the hero wasn't reincarnated here all too long ago- I'd say probably less than 20 years. Which even makes it easier for me to affect him and in turn influence the world, however, when have I ever been one to take the easy road to the finish line. Besides, the end goal is to hold the biggest influence over the entire universe, all realms included. That means I need a plan that will carry me through every realm. Befriending the hero in every world I visit just seems troublesome. Plus, I'm not going to do what everyone else is doing.
There's only one answer that suits my taste with all the cards I've been dealt with- World Domination. Obviously, the surefire way to spread my influence and impact the worlds greatly, is to just simply rule over it. It's simple in words alone but this is going to be a lot of work. Well, it'll be fun along the way too. I guess the first thing to do is obtain information. I have to start by completely understanding the concept of this world. Luckily, I already have the grand idea. Thank you Net.
But first things first. I need to make money. Life cannot go on without bread to sustain it. The first alert than popped up once I landed in the middle of this forest was this...
[Hi there! Hope you settle in nicely. There are a few things you'll notice are different from the Elrev you know. Hope this helps your new journey. You can contact me anytime through the messaging on the tato system, though it'll take a while before I respond. If it's urgent, visit a temple that honors me. Well take care and good luck. PS. The currency in the game is different from the one here (●'◡'●)]
This basically means that the 15 million gold coins I have in my inventory right now are utterly useless. Because of this, I decide to pick high quality herbs and flowers to sell in town. Most of what I pick using the tato system are

I'd say it was a pretty good haul. I took about twenty each of them. I also kill a few low ranking monsters as I make my way out of the forest and store their carcasses in my inventory. I could sell them to the adventurer's guild in town. As the peak of the town comes to view, I can't help but wonder- What else is different from the Elrev I'm familiar with?
