Chapter 78 - System Optimization Complete

After getting inside the room, Nathan did not immediately go to sleep.

Sitting on the bed with the box delivered by the man, Nathan looks at it with a thoughtful expression.

Knitting his eyebrows, he said, "Should I open this gift?"

"Hmm… Did this gift even really come from Julia?"

Thinking back to the image of Julia in his mind, then the cold image from the tv before, Nathan's face can't help but worsen.

"...Is Julia really a member of Illuminati?"

Nathan already had this suspicion back when he saw the news of her being a project manager of a company called Illuminati Group.

It might be a coincidence for a company here and the most vile organization in the universe to have the same name as the universe is very big.

But for some reason, Nathan felt his senses going haywire when he thought of that company.

Shaking his head, Nathan stood up and put the box on a corner of his room.

"Stay here for now, I might open you later."

Staring at it for a while, Nathan went back to his bed and fell asleep.

….

*Bzzzt Bzzzzt!*

Nathan slowly opened his eyes as he was woken up by the alarm.

"Yawn~"

Turning off the alarm, Nathan got up from his bed.

Stretching a little, he went to the bathroom and washed his face to get rid of the sleepiness.

A few minutes later, Nathan sat on the sofa in the living room, staring at the system interface.

[Tap Tycoon System]

[The System Optimization has finished.]

[Do you want to start the system?]

[Yes] [No]

….

"So, it's finally done." He said, feeling a little anticipation building up inside him, "I wonder what this Optimization will bring to me."

Without delaying anymore, Nathan raised his hand and pressed the [Yes] button.

Then notification windows appear one by one in front of his eyes.

[Congratulations the System has been successfully optimized.]

[You will be rewarded with the following:

Skill Upgrade Card x3, Skill: Close Quarter Combat, Golden Dungeon Ticket]

[As the system has been optimized the buff Double Profit is now permanently applied.]

[Currency has now been changed from Philippine Peso to Null Energy Stone]

[Converter has been unlocked.]

[Shop has been optimized.]

….

Then, the default system interface appeared.

But it now looks different from the one before.

[Tap Tycoon System]

[Host: Nathaniel Fernandez

Level: LV1

Null Energy Stones: 0

Experience: 0/100

Gold Points: 0

Converter

Shop

Mission]

….

Nathan scanned the interface and was confused about some things.

To resolve his confusion, he decided to ask the system for an explanation.

[After the optimization, the system's level will automatically reset to level one. Only the level will reset and not the profit of the host.]

[For the system to be more flexible, the currency is now changed into Null Energy Stone which is convertible into any other currency with the use of the converter. It can also be withdrawn as is.]

[Experience points are now optimized into 1:1 ratio with the gold points. Every 1 hundred thousand pesos that is spent will be counted as 1 experience point.]

[Converter can convert the Null Energy Stone into any currency from anywhere.]

After listening to the system's explanation, Nathan now understands the new changes in the system.

"Ooh," he exclaimed,

Then his eyes turned into the Null Energy Stones and a wide smile appeared on his face.

Shaking his head, he happily said, "I've been wracking my brain just to think of where I would find this Null Energy Stone and didn't expect that it would be the system's currency now."

As he was saying that, he took out his phone and opened the tap tycoon system app.

"Eh?"

When he did so, he was surprised to see that it was not like the previous one anymore!

Now, in the middle of the screen, there is a treasure chest that has a lock on it instead of the previous human figure.

"The optimization also changes the app, huh." He said,

Nathan did not care about it much.

He just wants to start tapping and get those Null Energy Stones that he needs to make those buildings inside his space start working.

Without thinking about the change that much, Nathan immediately started tapping.

+2

+2

+2

….

Unlike before where you can get money every time you tap, now you have to break the lock of the treasure chest to earn 1 Null Energy Stones.

But because of the multiplier buff that has been added, Nathan was able to get 2 Null Energy Stones each time.

To break a treasure chest, you have to tap on the chest 10 times for it burst.

Nathan tapped rapidly for only a second.

With that, he successfully got 204 Null Energy Stones.

A wide smile appeared on his face, "I finally have it."

Just as he was about to continue tapping, Natalie's voice sounded at the bottom of the stairs.

"Brother, aren't we gonna eat yet?" She asked while holding onto her stomach.

On her head is Issa also looking at him with pitiful eyes.

Nathan looked at the time on his phone and only then did he notice the time.

8 PM

He was surprised, immediately got up from the sofa and said, "Oh, wait, wait. I'll get something to eat."

Saying that, Nathan hurried over to the kitchen and immediately started cooking.

After everything is done, the three of them immediately start eating as they are already starving.

Not long after, the food on the table disappeared like a bubble.

With Natalie volunteering to wash the dishes again, Nathan was able to go back to his room.

Laying on his bed, Nathan propped his hand on his chin.

"Hmm, should I try it out now?"

He was thinking of whether to try out the new additions in the space.

But after a while, he shook his head.

"I should do it tomorrow. For now, I should look into the rewards from the system."

Since he was fascinated by the Null Energy Stones earlier, Nathan did not pay attention to anything else and neglected the rewards from the optimization.

Now that he got his thoughts cleared up, Nathan decided to finally look at other things.
