Chapter 21 - Chapter Twenty-One: Golden Finger’s Strange Actions.

"Finally, we are here! Look at that person! I think she is the person sent to receive the students from Rooster Street!" Said the panting Arryn to Kai who was not that tired. He just nodded as a response as he stood in front of her.

Just as he wished, it was a woman who had come to receive them. She was a beautiful woman with a cold expression on her face. Behind her was a huge blue ship.

"I thought we were going to a seaport! Why are we on a seashore Arryn?" Kai said as he looked at the sea.

"That's because the seashore is the seaport. Just that people are not here because of the official from the academy." Arryn said. By now, she had calmed her breathing.

"You run very fast, do you know that?" She said as she looked at Kai.

"Oh, I know that. I'm very fast" Kai replied and then he looked at the woman and tried to scan her.

He activated Omni-Eyes and what he saw did not make him surprised at all.

Name- ???

Bloodline- ???

Talent- ???

Innate Talent- ???

Realm- ???

Status- ???

*****

Realizing that they would be late to the seaport since they spent too much time with Madam Lane, Arryn decided that they should run faster and Kai agreed. While they were running, Kai suddenly started running faster and when Arryn noticed this, he had gone too far. Arryn immediately increased her speed and followed him. That was how the whole running section turned to a race between Kai and Arryn. They quickly arrived at their destination due to the race.

*****

Kai took a look around and saw that, apart from him and Arryn, there were many other teenagers who had come from near and faraway places just to gather here. Judging by this alone, Kai understood why cultivation is so important in this world. His thinking suddenly changed.

'Many people had many reasons for cultivation. Some might be doing it for a revenge plan, some for family cause, some just wanna get stronger so they won't be bullied by others, some just wanna do it to make connections, some want to do follow-follow-copy-copy syndrome, etc.

At the end of it all, not all of them can become a successful cultivator. Cultivation is a long journey filled with many life threatening challenges in the way so without the will to continue, suffer, regret, experience and overcome, then a person can only wait for his death as his days are numbered already.

All cultivators in the universe all have stories to tell. Either the ones that reached the top with overpowered cheats or the ones that reached the top with no remarkable qualities. They all have stories to tell.

I also shouldn't be too arrogant. I've got the Omni-God's Chaos System, so what? I have an extremely overpowered cheat, so what? If I'm not careful, I could easily get killed. Not all transmigrators are going to become successful cultivators so I need to be careful.

I haven't even explored the abilities of the system and I basically don't know much about it. *sigh* oh well, I guess the academy comes first.

Let's see what new things I will experience in the academy. Since, it's a cultivation world, shouldn't it be called a Sect instead of an academy? I mean, I thought only cultivation worlds create Sects and not Academies right? Maybe they are some things I don't know yet.' All these thoughts were going through Kai's mind as he kept observing his surroundings. As he had these thoughts, his mentality started changing.

Sys, who was in his mind suddenly moved. If it had a human face, then it's expression would be a smiling one.

'Finally, his mindset is changing. He now understands our cultivation works a little. Having the system is not always going to help all the time. So what if you can have all the powers in the world? What use is it if you can't even achieve something?

I guess it's time for me to start the Mindset Change System Protocol. From now on, I won't accompany you anymore! Journey your legend Kai Kysen' Sys thought.

«Kai, it's time»

Kai who was observing the woman that came to receive was startled when he heard the Sys's voice in his head.

'What's time? What's happening' he replied after he calm down. As far as he knows, Sys had never taken the initiative to talk to him.

«You have accomplished the necessary things for the upgrade of the system. You have successfully changed your mindset about cultivation. It's time to start the Mindset Change System Protocol. After this, new benefits would emerge. Are you ready?»

'What do you mean by that? What is the Mindset Change System Protocol! What's happening?' Kai was confused as he barraged questions at Sys.

«Host has triggered a requirement for the upgrade of the system! Would host like to activate the Mindset Change System Protocol or later?»

'I know you're about to upgrade! I just wanna know the fuck! is happening! What the fuck is happening?!' He shouted in his mind. He was already getting annoyed.

«Kai, the Mindset Change System Protocol appeared because of a change in your mentality. You finally understood a part of the cultivation's path. Once the system upgrades, it would bring new benefits for you, the Host. Don't worry, your powers are still available. You can use them without any worries. Just that you would have to wait for a week for the system's upgrade to finish. Do you understand?»

'Oh, ok. I do understand. You should have said that earlier. So what's gonna happen to you once the system upgrades?' Kai finally calm down as he thought.

«you don't have to worry about me, I'm the system's core. Something like A.I from your past life. I will also upgrade along with the system»

'Then, do it. Start the Mindset Change System Protocol. I will be waiting for you for a week.' Kai said as he patiently waited for the system to do its job. Somehow, he had a feeling that his Golden Finger won't be the same as it was. This system upgrade was just too sudden.

«Mindset Change System Protocol—- Successfully Activated»

«Omni-God's Chaos System—- Upgrade»

«Upgrading Progress—- 1%»

«Remaining Time Left To Finish System Upgrade—- 6 Days, 23 Hours, 59 Minutes, 8 Seconds. Host is advised to wait patiently»

As he was thinking about this, his chain of thoughts was suddenly broken by Arryn who was poking him with a worried look on her face.

"Wake up Kai. I know ya talking with that friend in ya mind but we need to go now!" Arryn said.

"Huh! Arryn? What's wrong?" Kai broke out of his stupor while looking at Arryn.

"What's wrong is that we're gonna get left behind if we don't follow them." Arryn said as she pointed at the woman who was directing the teens to board the ship.

All the teenagers that arrived were now trying to board the ship but something was wrong. While some easily boarded the ship, some couldn't entered the ship no matter how they tried.

He noticed a boy trying to enter the ship but there seems to be some sort of barrier at the entry door of the ship which prevented the boy's motive. Kai tried to scan the boy with his Omni-Eyes.

Name- Owen Barnes

Bloodline-Nil

Talent- Nil

Innate Talent- Claw Swipes

Realm- Nil

Status- Panic

'I see, he has no talent. Just an innate talent. Just as Sys had said, a person could awaken innate talents while not having any talents at all. That barrier must be the cause of it as it prevents those who don't have talent to pass. Lemme scan this one' Kai thought of Sys's words while his gaze turned to a girl that boarded the ship easily. She didn't even look like she encountered any barrier.

Using his Omni-Eyes, he could see the invisible barrier that was erected at the entrance of the ship. He then tried to scan the girl who had a carefree aura around her.

Name- Remi Drascum.

Bloodline- Nil

Talent[Martial]- Fire

Innate Talent- Ignition

Realm- Nil

Status- Indifferent.

'I stand corrected, she has a Martial Talent with the fire element. Although she doesn't have a bloodline, her innate talent seems powerful. It sounds as if she could ignite anything. Her name is Remi, sweet name' Kai thought with a smile. He was not worried at all.

Arryn looked at his smiling face and asked "noticed something?"

"Yes Arryn, can you see that boy who can't seem to board the ship? He can't board the ship because he has no talent for the Martial or Magic Path. The girl that just boarded the ship entered easily because she has a Talent for the Martial Path" Kai said with a smile.

"Sometimes I envy your ocular abilities. You just scanned a person without any qualms. What's her talent's element?" Arryn asked

Kai knowing what she's up to replied her question. "She has the fire element. Her innate talent is Ignition which could mean that she has the ability to ignite things. Awesome right? She doesn't have a bloodline and she is very indifferent to things around her. Her name is Remi, Remi Drascum. Now what do ya wanna use this info for?"

"Oh, you will see. It's better to know the opponent before they know you. Have ya tried scanning the teacher?" She asked.

"Yes, she is very powerful and I can't scan her. My almost almost bled while I did so." Kai said some half truth to her.

"Then pls scan the others!" She said as she took Kai to the ship. Kai didn't mind her tone and continued scanning others.
