Chapter 27 - Chapter 27: "System Panel"

"Creak…"

Opening the door, Maple looked at the similar interior, and nodded his head.

"Other than those alchemy and potion materials, everything is basically the same. Huh? This is…"

Looking around, Maple quickly saw above the coffee table in the living room, there were three balls of light.

The balls of light, one big two small, released a faint milky white halo. The biggest one was about the size of a basketball, while the two small ones were only comparable to a fist.

"This… should be the force that was previously used to raise the essence."

Maple gently placed his hand on the surface of the ball and used his spirituality to feel the power that came from the same origin as himself.

"The two small ones should be the leftovers when I was promoted from the lower sequence, then the big one should have just appeared after I was promoted to the middle sequence."

Maple stared at the two small balls, considering what to do with it.

There was no question about the big light ball; its usage had been confirmed as it would allow him to travel to another world once. However, the strength within the small ball was not as powerful; it could, at most, be used to create low-level sequence Beyonder tools.

"Perhaps it can have a growth characteristic?"

Maple thought for a while, but was not sure, so he could only temporarily suppress that thought.

"The current situation is that I would most likely need to go to a different material world, as such the power system I would encounter would also be diverse."

Thinking of that situation, Maple could not help but frown, as he thought of some annoying problems.

"Even if my spiritual power can be used through all realms, powers like magic may fail in some world, which will be very troublesome…"

As Maple fiddled with the ball of light in his hand, he suddenly had an idea.

"Perhaps, I would need a tool that can perform macro-coordination, …a 'system'?"

Recalling some "system novels" in his previous life, Maple slowly had some ideas.

"I can use a small 'power source' to establish a channel for communication. By utilizing the 'Infinite River Of Death,' I can reflect my power in real time, making coordination easier for me."

After calculating, Maples' spirituality slightly touched the small ball of light in front of him, introducing his idea and thoughts into the ball, allowing the ball to transform into a template he needed.

The ball of light, after receiving the spiritual influence, started to shrink and condense, as though gestating something inside. Soon, a data board with a rather "system-like" style appeared in front of Maple. On it were listed all of Maple's current information, as perceived by Maple.

[System Board]:

Sequence 5: A, A-, B+, B

Sequence 6: B-, C+, C

Sequence 7: C-, D+, D

Sequence 8: D-, E+, E

Sequence 9: E-, F+

Current sequence: Sequence 7 [murderer]

[Strength] : D

[Endurance] : D

[Agility] : D+

[Magic] : C-

[Spirit (Soul)] : C-

[Ability]:

[Energetic (D+)] : Remain energetic without rest nor sleep within 7 days. Strong spirit brings about improvement to physical recovery and immunity enhancement.

[Dark priest (C-)]: Reasoning, thinking, insight and material appraisal ability have been greatly improved. Able to quickly learn all kinds of knowledge (learning at night will improve learning capability) 

[Brand of Suffering (C-)]: Can designate one part of yourself to be damaged by magic containing extreme malice (the damage could be of physical, soul, rationality, etc.) to double its healing speed. Once the injury is healed, a dragon-scale-shaped brand will be generated at the wound, which can be actively released to offset damage by magic containing extreme malice up to twice the amount of damage caused when creating the brand. A maximum of three brands can exist at the same time.

[Weapon of War (D)]: One can designate a Beyonder weapon as a "weapon of war," allowing the weapon to benefit from the growth of the current sequence. If the designation is removed, the weapon can no longer be re-designated and will also sustain damage.

[Danger Sense (D)]: The spiritual sense towards danger and killing intent is greatly improved, further boosts are obtained when in the dark. Can be actively used to disrupt other people's "spiritual" tracking and collection of information and would produce spiritual warning.

[Killing Talent (D)]: Obtain master-level proficiency on various weapons and during a battle, will gain great intuition on killing the opponent, further boosts are obtained when in the dark.

[Magic Soul (C-)]: master level soul-magic knowledge, gain higher increase when using this type of magic.

[Dark Magic (C-)]: master level dark-magic knowledge, gain higher increase when using this type of magic.

[Magic (D+)]: peak-professor level magic knowledge, can use various magic well, including potions, alchemy, etc.

[Noble Phantasm]:

[Fiendfyre Thestral (E)]: A fantasy mount that is bound to the soul, similar to a patronus. It is currently in its infancy.

[Weapon of war (currently none)]: bound to the soul, currently not designated.

"Well…"

Maple narrowed his eyes slightly, carefully looked at the panel in front of him, and analyzed various information.

"The rating of the sequence should be roughly based on the essence, divided from a higher perspective. It only reflects my current level, but… sequence 5 actually has 4 ratings?"

After thinking about it carefully, Maple felt that it was not difficult to understand.

"Afterall, sequence 5 is already the threshold before the Saint. The characterization of this stage is indeed more complicated."

While thinking about it, Maple looked at the very "familiar" attribute board, however this board did not have a "plus button" service.

"Strength and endurance both have low rating, agility is alright, with magic and spirit rated the highest?"

Maple scratched his black hair, not really surprised with his "mage" attribute board.

"After all, the first world is more on the magical side, my first two low-sequences also did not have any specialized physical qualities, if it is not because of the increase in fighting capability due to [Murderer] , those two attributes of mine might be a D-…"

"I am actually a bit surprised with my agility, a D+, not bad. I guess in the next period, if magic cannot be used, I will have to adopt an assassin-oriented style."

After roughly understanding the attribute board, Maple turned his attention towards the skill bar.

"The first three abilities are all D+ and above, this should be an improvement after the promotion. Well… [Weapon Of War], [Danger Sense], [Killing Talent], these three should be the ability I have just obtained from [Murderer]. How wonderful, this Sequence is truly full of malice, looks like it is clear how I need to act next. 

Maple rubbed his smooth chin, thinking about the usage of these abilities.

"Although they are currently rated as D, but after mastering them, the rating should increase. [Danger Sense]'s interference on tracking should consume spiritual energy to create various coincidences and accidents or reverse divination to cover up clues and whereabouts, but the consumption…I think it should depend on how prominent the clues are and the strength of the person tracking me."

While Maple was using his spiritual perception to see more of this ability as he calmly analyzed it.

"If I do not hide myself or the person tracking me has the ability of sequence 4 or above, I'm afraid my spiritual power will be exhausted in an instant, even then success would not be guaranteed."

"As for other abilities, well…"

Maple considered it for a while and made a decision.

"I'm afraid this time I have to choose a material world that tends toward battle. However, this [Noble Phantasm], Hiss… no wonder it looked so familiar to me. Did it take reference from my impression of [Heroic Spirit]?"

Seeing the bright words [Noble Phantasm], Maple suddenly realized.

"I previously thought that this was an equipment slot, but it doesn't seem like it. "Soul-bound"... It's very similar to "Noble Phantasm," which is closely related to its master."

"But, that world…"

Maple suddenly thought of something and said to himself thoughtfully,

"Maybe it is possible to go there."

Thinking of the grandeur of that world, Maple was fascinated but at the same time shook his head, temporarily suppressing this idea.

"I'm afraid I will have to wait until I am of higher sequence. Now, I should return to the material world and prepare for the first trip."
