Darius was in the room assigned to him. After breakfast, Darius wanted to help them around the house but they were insistent on making him rest further.
It went on for a while but he finally caved in to their demands. He also wanted to see what the system had to offer.
He sat on the bed and said, "So, system?"
[How may I be of help?]
"Can you tell me about the features of the system, system?"
[Of course. I will start with telling you about the most basic functions of this system. Later on, you will learn about the others as you unlock them.]
"Okay. But why are they not unlocked already?"
[Good question. System is obliged to kill the current owner and look for another if the current owner is incompetent in helping the system fulfill its purpose. So, the system will only unlock more advanced functions after deeming the current owner worthy.]
His mouth was hanging open, "If I'm not worthy enough, you have the right to kill me?"
[Yes.]
"And how do you decide if I'm not worthy?"
[By failing too many quests and not using the system to its full potential.]
"What the hell!?" This information was shocking, his pre-owned knowledge; from novels and comics, was wrong. "I thought systems are there to help the protagonist. Not kill them."
[This can be called a parasitic relationship. Help me fulfill my purpose and you will have my full assistance.]
"Very well." Darius had no choice but to agree with him. Since he had already chosen to have this system; although against his will, he will do his best to fulfill his role.
As a video game aficionado, he was also compelled to see the full potential of this system.
[Now onto the tutorial. You only have access to Quest Menu, Status Menu, Achievements, Shop Menu and Reputation Menu. More features will be unlocked as you complete more quests. To access any menu call out the name aloud or in your mind.]
[ Also, congratulations on completing your first Quest. The rewards have been distributed.
|Rewards: Access to the previous owner of the body's memories.|
|Hidden objective completed: Raise the affection of Fiona by 2 points.
|Rewards: Unlock Reputation Menu.|
The first-time quest completion gift has been obtained. Would you like to open it now?]
"Yes, open it." Darius decisively said excited to see the rewards. He was also happy to see that he had even completed the hidden objective.
[You have obtained 5 Stat points, 5 Skill Points, 500 Shop Tokens, and 1 Shop Voucher.]
"Noice~" These were some good gains.
"Status" He said excitedly, he wondered if was overpowered.

[An average untrained adult of this Earth has 35 stats in all except Charm since this stat is subjective. And an average adult of the previous Earth has 20 stats in all except Charm.]
"I am weak as fuck." Darius wisely nodded his head. He had just looked about the memories of the previous Darius. And he was born with a weak physique.
"System, is there any way to remove that abnormal ability of mine? Also, why is it in the ability section and not abnormal conditions?"
That ability truly scared the shit out of him. Imagine the grind it would take him to gain the level of strength that an average person can achieve in less than half the time.
He was not against grinding as a gamer. But this shit was going to be torturous. He hoped really hard that System would tell him a piece of positive news.
[It is possible.]
His eyes shone, [But with your current strength, you will just die. Thus, I will tell you about it when you are sufficiently strong.]
His eyes unshone. What did he expect? Of course, the body he transmigrated into would have such an abnormal condition. Of course, as a protagonist, he would have to struggle unnecessarily.
Of course, this all had to happen to him only. He sighed deeply. Today was truly a rollercoaster and the day had not even ended yet.
[Host, don't get too depressed. There is a way to lessen the effect of this ability.]
"Really? How?" Even if he couldn't get rid of it, having its effects lessened would still be better.
[Use the Shop Voucher to buy a different ability to counter it.]
"Nice!" He exclaimed, "Quickly, open it."
A panel appeared with System Shop as the header and Ability tab highlighted, which was beside the Skill tab.
"Damn, these items are overpowered!"
