Aldritch taking a small break on his bed after helping with the chores, although he did have Jigash assisting him with it secretly
- In all honesty, he wasn't certain if it prudent to present Jigash to his family immediately.
And he was laboured with the unfinished business with the system.
Time flies, he must catch up with everything or else he will dropped until nothing left sooner or later.

" Well, i don't think there any question to be had. It would be stupid not to pick this path now that it has been given to me. "
Aldritch pressed the first option - due to it's powerful effects and sentimental reasons.
It was an obvious choice for him on these regards.
With the press of the interface...
Surfaced a tundra of paranoia that crashed into his every inches of existence and rationality, it suffered in itches and he craved and obssessed to scratch and writhed his body and flesh until it peeled off into dust - to become beautiful this way...
"Guh...No this isn't right. "
Aldritch was brawled his own madness believing his eyes were acupuncture by needles of imaginations.
"GUHHH...!!"
- 'But his will resisted that notion.'
" Ugh... That was fricking unexpected. "
It was only an llusion, but it definitely sufferable uncanniness. Aldritch didn't want to experience that again but nevertheless he discerned his body changed once again,
This time it breathed as though he had been refined and his skin and flesh was tempered and morphed into a stronger existence.
' Hah, couldn't the system just make it less troublesome every time? '
After feeling reborn once again, he proceed to the next option on the menu of features.
' Presence, while i have no idea what it is, '
' I can't help but asumme that the system is secretly mocking me or something. '

"Uh, system - is this what i think it is? "
[ As expected, you've caught on quickly. A feature for the growth of the creator, the 'Presence' function. ]
[ With a strong presence, you can evoke an interest from your seniors or rather a family of the Eldritch lore, ]
[ From here you can communicate with them using your smartphone which i allowed for it to work with my directives. ]
[ I'm certain you can comprehend how to guide it by yourself. ]
" A 'chatting function', isn't that fascinating. "
" So i can communicate to 'The Unspeakable One' itself? "
[ Affirmative. ]
The system replied while presumbly waiting for Aldritch begin some kind of response to the mythical creature exist in mere fables.
= =
-> AL: " Hello, is there something you're interested in? "
-> KIY: " Ah, greetings - were wondering on whether thou has the sacred tomes? Thy studies happens to be halted by the lack of earthly sources. "

" Huh, this creature is more...chill? Than i expected, if i recall correctly. "
" The thing from the legendary writings were making him more sinister and mysterious- "
" Oh right, he asked for 'sacred tomes' right? What could those be... "
Aldritch took a peek at his personal collage and shelves of books, attemping to find one that could pleased this entity.
'Biology of the Elitism', 'History of Emperors', 'Guide to little sister'.
Perhaps none of interest to that thing...
Nevertheless, when he continued to think,
He was suddenly inspired by his past self.
'This is peak knowledge'
Bet if it doesn't interest anyone. Then i'm going to be cross-dressing for a year.'
With faith in his good taste of literature, he proceed to take it out and send it through the chatting function.
In that instant, a wisp of darkness grasp onto the book and it was erased as if the storm has passed by.

*Sizzle*
Aldritch closed the tab, feeling drowsy as the fatigue had sunken it's teeth into his vigorious body.
' This must be the memory'
He concluded as his mind wandered and hazed into incomplete mess.
It wasn't so bad for afterward he was going to hit the hay for tommorow anyways, he thought.
As for the other selections, he can examine it later.
Currently, sleeping is all he could realized in this moment.
The system expecting such occurance, proceeded to prompt anymore question and disappeared into nil of silenced.
' I'm not going to lose them, not again. '
Aldritch briefly muttered in his sleep as he drifted into a long fleeting aspiration dream.
