[blah blah blah... blah blah blah... and so I died and now I am your system and you are my disciple and a little baby incubus!]
"You realize that saying 'blah blah blah' doesn't actually explain anything right?", I said with a sigh, "and the other stuff you already told me". I am literally questioning my sanity and my rotten luck right now. "Isn't there anyone else who could explain this?", I rhetorically asked with exasperation.
[Ohh... I thought that was how those worked. I used to hear my teachers say that all the time.] she said while frowning.
[Ohh wait you can talk to the other guy! I forgot just say ...umm I think his name is Bob. Yeah Bob just think Bob and you'll be able to ask what you need to know!]
"Lilith, that isn't working. Are you sure that it is Bob.", I asked after thinking of the name Bob.
[Umm... yeah it was one of those generic names, so Bob sounds right. Ohh no! It's Status, haha!]
"Lilith, that doesn't sound anything like Bob and when have you ever met someone named Status because I don't know anyone with a name like that.", I said sighing again. I really need to stop sighing or I might just end up aging prematurely, but I'm starting to wonder if that would be a bad thing or not.
"Status", I thought to myself and a small semi-transparent screen popped up in front of my eyes with stats and other options popping up. Okay, now this is something that is a little bit easier to understand than Lilith who just swings along to her own song that I for one do not understand.
The screen looked a bit like this:

"Hey Lilith, what are the question marks for? And why is one of my skills birthing?!", I asked.
[Don't ask me. If you can't see it, then I definitely can't! And birthing is what it is. Are you dumb? I didn't think I'd need to explain the horizontal hula to my little disciple.]
"Okay then", I said, a bit tired of the repetitive non-answer responses that I couldn't or didn't want to understand.
I decided to open up the 'system details' first and what I saw surprised me. It was a full in-depth description of my system almost like a user's manual that came with mana technology.
System Details:
...
The Morrigan's System was constructed from the remnants of Lilith's soul after her demise in 'the devil', Stria's battle against the Origin god. It is then connected to the inheritor's soul at birth and awakened at their sixteenth birthday.
The inheritor of the system obtains a new race and Lilith's race skills, as well as the ability to view and improve upon their own stats through tasks, mortal combat, acquired children, and stat points.
As their level and experience increases through tasks, the inheritor can also increase their inventory space and task variety and difficulty, as well as other system related upgrades that can be accessed at level 15 using collected soul fragments.
Skill and affinity details will become more comprehensive as the inheritor gains experience and knowledge of their own abilities.
...
I was immediately drawn to the details regarding increasing my power, as it would be nice to have more control over my own body in order to hide my horns and other things. "Yes Lilith I remember some things from your mumbling earlier", I thought to myself proudly. Yeah, I am talking to myself. Tasks seemed to be something I needed to complete to gain more power, so I opened the task bar to see what these tasks were for today and how I could get power from them, since seeing can sometimes mean understanding. Ehh I don't know... just go with it.
The task bar looked like this and I was a little surprised at the tasks I was seeing, Lilith!

"Lilith, you pervy system! Why do you keep saying that I have to do pervy suggestive things! And why am I the one that has to give birth to the child?!". I am just... well there goes another sigh.
[They aren't that bad! I gave you the easy ones to start and you don't even have to do the other ones yet.]
"Well, yeah I guess... Wait no! Childbirth isn't easy I've seen it!", I retorted.
[Well you don't have to do it now, but when the time comes I'll tell you the secret and you'll definitely be happy then.]
"Tabling this whole children thing, why do I have to make someone moan?", I said freaking out. My eyes caught the remaining time for today's tasks and got a bad feeling, "Lilith, what happens if you run out of time and don't complete the daily tasks?".
[A punishment of course, but I can't tell you now, I haven't decided, so be patient.]
"But there is no way that I can complete these in 3 hours! Everyone is asleep!".
"Shit! Shit! Shit!", I mumbled to myself. I really hope the punishment isn't bad, ughh, and I still have to complete those tomorrow, but I cannot complete them today, so there is nothing I can do.
[Don't worry little one it'll be fun! All my punishments are the fun kinds, so don't worry.]
Lilith's words lulled me into a false sense of security and I nodded off to sleep.
