"Hmm, receive the owners full support?" Kaelen mused, a curious glint in his eyes. "System, what does the owners support affect?"
[It affects the amount of rewards you shall get and the amount of exp gained]
The system's response was concise, yet profound. Kaelen pondered the implications. Full owner support meant more than just passive encouragement; it signified a direct investment in his progress. The increased rewards and accelerated experience gain would undoubtedly be invaluable on his journey.
Kaelen returned his attention to the crystal, his fingers tracing its newly formed edges. He felt a strange energy emanating from it, a hum that resonated deep within him. "Is it because the system's 100% downloaded now?" he whispered, a sense of wonder washing over him.
The crystal, once inert, now pulsed with an inner light. As Kaelen experimented, he discovered an astonishing level of control. With a mere thought, he manipulated its form, the crystal shifting and contorting like malleable wax. Colors danced across its surface, shimmering with an ethereal glow. It lengthened, sharpened, and even bifurcated, transforming into a pair of deadly daggers.
"Is the craftsman system that powerful?" Kaelen marveled, his eyes wide with disbelief. He had never imagined such intricate control over a material. The possibilities were staggering. He envisioned a quiver of arrows, each tipped with a unique crystal, capable of unleashing a barrage of elemental attacks. He imagined armor woven with shimmering threads of crystal, capable of deflecting any blow.
With a satisfied grin, Kaelen shaped the crystal into a sleek, elegant sword. The blade hummed with power, radiating an aura of raw energy. This weapon would be a formidable asset, a true extension of his will. He sheathed the sword at his hip, a newfound confidence blooming within him.
The cave loomed before him, its mouth a gaping maw of darkness. What dangers awaited him within? He didn't know, but he was no longer afraid. He had faced challenges before, and with the system's guidance and the power of his own ingenuity, he would overcome them all.
Taking a deep breath, Kaelen stepped into the unknown. The cave swallowed him whole, the darkness pressing against his eyes. But as he ventured deeper, a faint light began to glimmer ahead, a beacon of hope in the abyss. He quickened his pace, his heart pounding in anticipation of the wonders and perils that lay hidden within.
The journey had begun.
