[SKILLS]
>>Inspect: Inspect items and beings that are unknown.
Usage: Inspect anything.<<
>>Blood Aura (Skills): This is a special type of energy stored in the host's body. It can be called blood energy because it contains all the blood essence that has been absorbed by the host's body. Blood Aura can also be used to perform or create skills on the god slayer level. When used up, it can be replenished like Mana.
Usage: The host has a monstrous amount of blood essence sealed within him. The host's blood aura is infinite.<<
>>Grimoire: This is a special, ancient dark book that can be used to store magic spells, techniques, recipes, and an array formations. The grimoire automatically stores any spell the host comes across and they can be accessed anytime without chanting.
Usage: Infinite.<<
>>Virile Aroma: This skill is derived from the name of the system. The host can secrete this aroma to attract or sexually arouse the opposite gender, regardless of race (*wink*).
Usage: Once a day.<<

Huh…
I'm looking at these weird stats, and it's got me all puzzled. In my past life, I had a system, but it wasn't anything like this one. That one had a whole bunch of fancy interfaces, while this one seems simpler.
Before I close the window, I gotta figure out a few more things.
Hey, System, can you hear what I'm thinking?
[Yeah, host, I can hear your thoughts.]
Alright then...
But you gotta stop calling me 'host'. Just call me by my name, and we'll be cool.
[Calling the host by their name is considered taboo. Can I call you 'master'?]
That works for me.
[Alright, master. Do you have any questions? I'll give you answers as long as I can.]
Sure, I got a few questions for you.
[Go ahead, shoot.]
Do you give out missions for rewards?
[Unfortunately, no. This system isn't built to hand out missions or rewards, or to penalize the host. Its purpose is to assist the host and make things easier. However, the system does have its own perks. Since each system is customized for each host, it tends to provide the host with certain benefits as they grow stronger.]
And what are some of those benefits?
[Sorry, master, I can't tell you that. Even as the system, I don't know about all the benefits either.]
I see... this system seems different from the one I had before. This one feels more like an AI with human thoughts, not some fairy locked inside a system.
System, I have one last question. You mentioned that this system was designed to bring balance between those who are awakened and mages. But in my case, I can use magic. Is there a connection between that and the errors in my stats? And what's with those 'null' figures in my stats?
[You're right, master. The errors during your awakening are related to you. As I mentioned earlier, this system was specially tailored for you, and your abilities and talents are beyond my comprehension and capability. That's why you saw those error messages. As for the invalid stats, I couldn't assess your overall power, hence the 'null' figures in your stats.
Ah... That makes sense. All my powers are locked within my soul. If I were to forcibly unleash them, this body would disintegrate.
This feeble body... sigh. I need to do something about it. But even if I improve my physical form, I can only release fragments of my power.
Suddenly, a heavy tap on my shoulder snaps me out of my daze.
I look up to see two hooded men standing before me. As our eyes meet, they bow deeply.
Blue...
That's the first thing I notice when I raise my head, causing my body to jolt. If I were an ordinary kid, I'd probably be terrified right now, facing such a sight.
These two men have the scent of elves, yet they're not quite elves. Their skin appears desiccated and muscular, while their glowing blue eyes render them extremely intimidating, even to adults.
[Inspect...]
[Name: First and Second Guardians]
[Description: Two of the five ancient Elf Guardians who attained immortality. While weakened and unfit for protecting the Elves from invasion, they oversee the awakening ceremony. Their power should not be underestimated.]
"We didn't mean to startle you," one of the guardians says upon witnessing my reaction.
After using the inspect function and learning about these enigmatic individuals before me, I also bow in respect.
"This humble one greets the ancient ones."
"Hoho, now this is interesting! Quite extraordinary!" exclaims the second guardian, revealing his barely visible teeth.
"It's the first time a child has seen us without fleeing in terror. You're different, kid. I can sense the energy emanating from you. You were the cause of that phenomenon earlier," the first guardian states, extending his palm as if checking something.
[Memory reading magic detected. Would the master like to resist it?]
Huh... So, this man is attempting to use mind-reading magic on me. Fufu, such disrespect toward an ancient vampire like myself.
System, reveal to him ten percent of the horrors, atrocities, and bloodshed I've unleashed. Show him a fragment of my power... fufufu.
[Affirmative, master.]
Suddenly, the guardian freezes, his eyes turning red as his head starts twitching rapidly, as if glitching. Simultaneously, his body trembles, and his withered muscles seem to age even further.
"ARGH!!" the guardian bellows, stumbling backward before being caught by his companion.
The second guardian places his hand on his comrade's head and begins chanting spells.
"He..." the first guardian mumbles, gazing at me with horror.
Contrary to my expectations, however, the second guardian waves his hand, and in the blink of an eye, the first guardian vanishes into thin air.
The second guardian rises and bows deeply, clasping his hands together.
"I apologize for my comrade's disrespectful attempt to probe your memories. To make amends for our mistake, accept this small token. With it, you can summon the guardians anywhere, although it can only be used once," he says, offering me a dark, rusted medallion adorned with the head of a Phoenix.
I place the medallion into my space ring, and a white flash surrounds me. Next thing I know, I find myself standing in front of the hall, leaving me wide-eyed.
It's not the hall that surprises me; rather, it's the sight of all the other participants outside, beaming with joy alongside their loved ones. Judging by their reactions, they've all awakened completely.
But... what the heck? I was the first person to awaken. Did I waste so much time dealing with those dreadful beings?
"Alex..."
A familiar voice calls out from behind me.
