I am going to call mc Adam because it will be confusing in the future.
*****************************************************************
While Adam was checking his system interface, he heard footsteps outside his bedroom. The door opened abruptly and three people walked inside his bedroom.
There was an old man with a butler outfit, a middle aged man with noble clothes and a middle aged woman with a beautiful dress.
The middle couple had a worried look on their faces while the old man had an expressionless face.
Adam knew who they were. They were his parents and the old man was his personal attendant.
His mother had dark-blonde hair and brown eyes. Her body was perfect. She had a big rack and a voluptuous ass. Her name was Samantha Singh.
She took the Singh surname after she married to the Singh family
His father on the other hand had short, black hair and dark blue eyes. He had intimidating features and a physique that needed hours of training.
His name was Edward Singh. The patriarch of the Singh family
While the butler had grey hair and a grey mustache. He had a pretty average build.
But Adam didn't let that fool him.
Although the previous Adam didn't Know, the current Adam who had read the novel knew that this old man was one of the strongest if not the strongest assassin currently.
His name was Albert
"Adam, are you alright?"
Samantha asked with sadness in her voice. After all, any mother that saw her one and only son faint out of the blue will be sad and worried
"Of course, I am. Why wouldn't I be?"
Said Adam with an expression of someone who didn't have a single clue of wtf is going on.
"hEh???"
When Samantha heard that she was shocked. Adam had suddenly fainted in the middle of their usual family dinner and he had fell in deep sleep for the past 2 days.
And now he woke up and Sai that he was fine like nothing is wrong. Samantha's mother instincts told that something was definitely wrong with the situation.
"What do you mean < why wouldn't I? >? Don't you remember what happened?"
"No, what happened?"
"You suddenly passed out in the middle of our dinner. Don't you remember?"
This time it was his father's turn to speak. He spoke in an indifferent voice but he had a worried look in his eyes.
"I see"
Adam thought that it was because of him taking over this body but he didn't say it out loud.
"Can you leave me alone? I am not feeling very well. So, I want to rest a little."
"but you haven't eaten for two day now. Aren't you hungry?"
"No, I am fine"
He said with an expressionless face.
"but.."
"Samantha, he just woke up give him some time to rest. It's not like the food will go somewhere. Let him rest"
Samantha tried to persuade Adam but she was cut short by Edward who seem to be calmer one in the couple.
"Don't worry, Mother, when I rest enough I will come out to see you immediately. So let me rest a little, okay?" said Adam
"Okay, but If you don't come immediately I am going to get angry." Said his mother with an angry expression but Adam found it cute.
After that, both walked out of the room while Albert followed them closely from behind
When they closed the door, Adam released the breath he was holding while moving towards the bed.
When he sat on the bed a notification from his system appeared in front of his eyes.
[Initializating memory synchronization...]
[Memory synchronization will take 30 hours to complete]
[Host's body will go to hibernation until synchronization is complete]
That was all Adam heard before he fell asleep on the bed.
***********************************************************
30 hours later, Adam began to wake up.
"Well, Most of the memories are pretty useless."
Said Adam out loud after he woke up. He was feeling a little sore after not moving for so many hours.
Then, a system notification appeared in front of him.
[Memory synchronization complete]
[As gift from the system you have a choice :
1. 20 random attributes (except luck)
2. Awaken host's mana
You can only chose one (because host can only chose one doesn't mean the other choice won't appear in the future so host shouldn't worry) ]
"whistle... Both are good choices but I think I will chose this one"
Suddenly, something like a tornado of light-blue energy happened in Adam's room with Adam as the center. If Edward or Albert were to see this blue energy, they would recognize in an instant.
This is what mages and anyone below th high-rank knight uses and it's called Mana or Magic power. The man's color symbolizes how strong a mage is.
A 1-star mage has light-blue
A 2-star mage has blue mana.
A 3-star mage has dark-blue mana.
A 4-star mage has light purple mana.
A 5-star mage has purple mana.
A 6-star mage has dark-purple mana.
A 7-star mage has light-red mana.
A 8-star mage has red mana
A 9-star mage has dark-red mana.
As for a 10-star mage it wasn't know since now has reached that level YET but in the novel the protagonist had reached that level so he knew.
A 10-mages mana was black. Pure black.
But for knights it was different especially after they reached high-rank knight. That is when they unlock aura. A swordman's third most powerful card.
If two high ranked knights were to fight, when one used a high-ranked technique with mana and the other just swang his sword while he infused with aura.
The one using aura will have an overwhelming victory but that is only the case when knights with equal talent are fighting. If the one using mana was a genius then it would be another matter.
A knight's color of is irrelevant with their battle strangth since they mostly use it to enchant their physical strength and techniques. For example a high-quality silver-rank technique without being infused mana will always lose to low-quality bronze-rank technique infused with mana.
And Adam who has read the novel knows this. That's why he chose to awaken his mana.
Originally someone who hasn't awakened by the age of 13 is impossible to awaken without some kind of pill or medicine. But with the help of the system Adam wasn't restraint by something so trivial.
Slowly the blue-energy tornado stopped and Adam came out. His skin looked a little healthier and although he was still ugly, his had became a little more attractive.
"hoooo..... Time to plan for the future"
