Chapter 21 - Completion Of Minor Task And Hidden Task

When Allen was currently appraising the pair of daggers that he had looted from the , a too familiar sound made him change his attention towards the source of the sound.

*Ding!*

[Host has completed a Minor Task!]

[Minor Task: I Assassinate Assassins!]

[System Task- Difficulty: (Very Easy)]

[Task Description: A mere mortal hired the to assassinate Asther Walker, the host's brother. Assassinate the before the assassinates Asther Walker.]

[Task Time Limit: Before Asther Walker dies]

[Task Reward/s: 500 AMCG Points]

[Task Penalty: None. Why would a high-tier system like myself kill its host?]

[Task Additional Information: The host has already completed the task.]

[Will the host accept the reward for completing the Minor Task?]

[Yes] | [No]

Allen tapped the [Yes] button on the system screen as another system screen appeared in front of him.

[Host has received 500 AMCG Points. The AMCG Points have been credited into the host's AMCG Smartphone.]

When Allen received that message, he double-checked by checking his AMCG Smartphone and when he tapped into his account, there was a five hundred number beside the AMCG Points instead of the previous zero number.

Allen now firmly believed that the Alternate Multiverse Chat Group System wasn't a scam. If it was, even if he was forced and given the death penalty, he wouldn't accept tasks from the Alternate Multiverse Chat Group System.

[Of course, the system isn't a scam! The Alternate Multiverse Chat Group System was created by the thousand systems of Systema Kami, the God Of Worldly Systems while Katake Kage Zenchi, the [Author Of The Box] himself had combined those thousand systems to create the Alternate Multiverse Chat Group System.]

From what he had read, Allen had understood that the God Of Worldly Systems was a bigshot but Katake Kage Zenchi was much stronger than Systema Kami. Allen had deduced that because of the title of Katake Kage Zenchi which was the [Author Of The Box].

[The Box] was said to be the container of [The Barrel]. [The Barrel] was the container of [The Outside] or more known as the Outerverse where the fictional Outer Gods resided.

[The Outside] contained the Omniverse. The majority believed that the Omniverse was the highest verse when in reality, there are more verses or planes of existence that contained the Omniverse.

Allen knew about the existence of those planes since it was imagined or believed in some fandom that it was the planes of existence or all dimensions that exist outside the universe.

With Allen's current strength, he was nothing more than an ant compared to the powerhouses that resided in those higher dimensions or planes of existence. That was why he dared not to remain complacent and delude himself that he was powerful when in reality, he was not.

*Ding!*

[Host has completed the Hidden Task- I Am Nothing More Than An Ant.]

[Will the host accept the Hidden Task reward?]

[Yes] | [No]

'What?'

Allen couldn't help but be confused after reading the text displayed on the system screen. He was merely accepting his pitiful existence that was nothing but an ant when compared to the vast universe but he completed a Hidden Task by doing just that?

Even if Allen was confused, it didn't stop him from pressing the [Yes] button. After all, who wouldn't reject something free?

[Host has received the <> ability. The ability has been added to the host's status.]

When Allen had finished reading that, he summoned his status to make sure. Even if the name of the ability was somewhat degrading, a trash ability was better than none.

[Name: Allen Walker

Age: 16

Race: Supreme Human

Power Level: Highest Realm Peak Stage

Body: Highest Realm Peak Stage

Soul: Highest Realm Peak Stage

Willpower: Highest Realm Peak Stage

Innate Talent: Supreme Order

Divinity: None

Authority: None

Abilities: Ant's Presence]

"System, display the information about the <> ability."

[Affirmative.]

[Ant's Presence- An ability that doesn't consume any type of energy to activate and if activated, it can be permanently used but it can also be deactivated. You can think of it as a toggle on and off passive ability.

It grants the user the ability to the presence of an ant but it doesn't conceal the presence of the user. But since ants are neglected by most, it is better than presence concealment since instead of hiding the user's presence, the user would only have the presence of an ant while the user's presence blends into the surroundings. Any abilities that detect concealed presences would be useless against this ability since your presence wasn't hidden.

The Ant's Presence ability is mostly used when the user wants to hide or be 'neglected' by powerhouses. So when two powerhouses are fighting against each other for a treasure, the user can sneak and obtain the treasure without alerting the two powerhouses since the user's presence is neglected by the two powerhouses.]

After reading the information about the <>, Allen took back his thoughts.

'This ability isn't trash!'

If one was weak, then the best life-saving skills are the skills that allow one to escape. The second best life-saving skills are the skills that allow one to hide their presence or anything that avoids one from being implicated in a battle.

Allen understood that very well and it was the reason why he didn't think of the <> ability as trash. An ability that neglected one's presence wasn't trash!

Allen couldn't help but praise his ability for allowing him to use his luck to complete a Hidden Task by chance. His first Hidden Task completion yielded a useful reward.

Allen had already preserved the dead body of the so he left it in the living room. Allen went upstairs and entered his room only to be met by Iris' gaze.

"Master Allen, you have received an email and the sender is a staff from the Supreme Academy."
