Chapter 6 - Promise And System

After Nova finished eating the meal then his mom told him to go rest until his father came home and check on his condition for any hidden problem.

"master, why didn't you let me tell my mom about you and Aur?" Nova asked once they are back in his room.

"Do you know what it means to have a legacy?" Celes asked him instead of answerering.

"shortcut to becoming stronger" Nova raised his head, balled his hand into fist then placed on his chest and answered with a proud look.

" No, it means to stay always vigilant, you don't know if someone were to know about your legacy, the first thing they do is to kill you, to make legacy as his own" Celes reprimanded in grim tone.

"you're still a child Nova, protected from all dangers, so you don't know how a small fortune can even turn bestest of friends into lifelong enemies"

"I not asking you to always hide this legacy from your parents, you can tell them if one day you become strong enough to protect them from all dangers that might come to you because of this legacy"

"Until then promise me Nova you won't tell anyone about your legacy, Promise me Nova" Celes said in serious tone, reminding him of their situation.

" You.. hah may hate me Nova for this, but always remember I only trying to help you" Celes sigh as she knows she's telling him to keep his parents in the dark about him from now on.

"No... you are right, Master, I heard of it, apparently someone was killed after he revealed that he found a legacy from his exploration" Nova told her about this story he heard, when his teachers were discussing.

"So I promise, I will not tell anyone about my legacy until I become strong enough that even Ancient can't harm my family" Nova said with a resolute look in his eyes.

" I believe you Nova, you will definitely become the strongest" Celes nods to his promise in approval.

"by the way, you are quite brave to drag Ancients in your promise, they have lived from time immemorial, their power levels are unknown, even my master never found anything about them other than that they do exist" Celes teased him for his magnificent promise.

" I will definitely become the strongest, just you wait and watch" Nova replied while pouting.

"okay okay my little future Ancient, I will wait for you" Celes still teased him.

"Humph" He just hurrumphed this time, not bothering to entertain her any further.

"Okay, how about I tell you about the powers and treasures you obtained from the legacy" Celes tempts him seeing he do not want to talk to her.

"What treasures are you talking about?" Nova questioned her with a neutral tone.

'he he treasures and powers, I finally going to get them but I can't show her I am interested or she will just tease me again' his thoughts are clearly different from his tone.

*chuckles* Celes mentally laughs hearing his thoughts 'poor guy, he doesn't know I can hear his thoughts'.

"Say the word 'status' and you will know" Celes instructed him.

Nova frowns slightly not understanding what a single word can do, but he still followed her instructions.

"Status"

"woah, what is this floating screen, Master, I can't even touch it" Nova asked placing his hand back and fro through the screen.

"It is the greatest invention of my Master, he called it soul module or system for convenience, it is a powerful tool that can help you Nova, on your path to becoming the strongest" Celes told him with a pride, about her master greatest achievement.

"let's check it, 'profile'" he commanded

*Ding*

"this shows my name and age perfectly, so this Profile" Nova exclaims in wonder seeing everything about him displayed perfectly.

"but what is this 'Eyes of Clarity', is this the power I inherited Master, it even says inherited" Nova asked Celes for more info. about his newly found or inherited powers.

"Just think of what you want to know from your profile, it will show you" Celes instructed him.

"Eyes of Clarity, Eyes of Clarity.." Nova started muttering.

Celes : "...."

" use your 'WILL' not you mouth,idiot" Celes shouts at him, hearing his muttering.

"y-yes, Mam, 'Eyes of Clarity'"

*Ding*

Allow the user to get all information about anything.]

" it really showed the information of Clarity Eyes, it says the eyes will shows me all info. I want then wouldn't I will know all the answers of the exam too, I then wouldn't have to study anymore"

"this is the best power ever, ha ha ha" Nova started laughing seeing the description of his trait.

'The first he thought, was to cheat in Exams' Celes thoughts not knowing weither to cry or laugh, as he said the same thing her master said when he awakened his 'All knowing Eyes'.

"by the way, Master. Is trait here means talent?" Nova asks the meaning of trait.

"Trait and Talent are different, don't mix them up" Celes

"Trait is a acquired power through blessing or inheritance like yours while Talent is manifestation of your hidden potential"

"Another thing that differentiates them is that Trait wouldn't advance in Rank, it will always be fixed to the same rank as you received it on the other hand Talent can advance in rank if you met proper conditions" Celes tolds him the difference between them.

"what are the Ranks for Trait and Talent, Master" Nova.

"They are Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Unique, Legendary, Mythical, Grand, Ultimate, Supreme, Absolute and Origin from lowest to highest, the trait you inherited was a Unique talent my Master awakened during his awakening, he then advanced it to Ultimate Rank by amassing hordes of knowledge"

" I see, I wonder if I can awaken a talent" he ponders.

"Stop thinking useless thing, even if you don't awaken a talent, you have a equally powerful trait, so why worry this much" Celes tells him not to worry about such thing as not Awakening a talent not gonna affect him.

"Be ready, I will send you a packet of knowledge it might sting a bit" Celes then send him the packet in his head.

"Arghhh.. It hurts" Nova felt a sudden headache.

"hah hah.. This is
