Chapter 167: The Upgraded System Interface

Lee observed around and accepted the fact. He had guessed the feasibility of the habitable subspace, but did not expect it to be so realistic. Glancing around, he sensed the purity of the air and felt the grass rubbing to his feet.

"The information came at a price."

D spoke and Lee had to halt his observations as he heard that sentence. He peered at D, while taking a glimpse of Hudson's face.

"What price?"

Lee expressed his curiosity verbally. D spoke a second after Lee finished his question.

"Hudson was an apprentice of that malicious wizard. With dual affinity to fire and water elements, he was snatched away, before getting a chance to even know about the Alaqvier academy. His career should have flourished as an expert dual element wizard, but instead took the wrong turn. His parents were poor, and thus did not have the knowledge about the academy. As a bookworm, his memory and knowledge of many things were applaudable.

In exchange of information, he asked two things. One, a physical body as a residence. It would not be difficult to create a solid physical body once you are on your feet. Two, to help him get revenge. From his crucial help in upgrading and the account of sufferings, even you would have approved his conditions."

Lee had a blank face, but he was internally alert. But the existence of D as a part of his soul, reassured him that no malicious intentions will befell on him.

"The spatial engineering the wizard had done was the key to create the space. I used the same technique to create a spatial vessel for him to reside in. It can only help him travel and walk in the subspace, but not outside.

We are obliged to help him seek his revenge on the wizard. It is a mystery whether the man is alive even after four centuries. But his lineage should exist. According to Hudson, there also exists a certain artifact that enabled the wizard to do such futuristic advancements in magic."

D further spoke about the evil wizard with the family name 'Etyus'. Hudson also added a few information that he recently recollected from the lost archives of his memory. Almost an hour passed by, by the time their discussions came to a point.

"What about the system?"

"Oh, a moment."

Lee asked and D immediately turned around and waved his hand. A bluish grey panel appeared out of thin air and was suspended in the air. Before further advancing, D turned to Lee.

"When I said 'You are on your own', that did not mean that you are supposed to wreck your body to death! But lucky for you, the system was undergoing upgrade, and thus was able to reconstruct the whole of your being.

It took the memory of Gauthama, skill of Hudson, and my restless craft to reconstruct your soul. Your body was also greatly transformed to tune it to the current system 'configuration'.

You are no longer an indigenous species of Earth, not completely. But a hybrid earthling with utopian reconstruction, and a system. Thus your league would be different from the normal being."

D flicked his finger and the panel displayed Lee's anatomy. The organs were all the same and at the same position. But Lee caught the sight of the second heart and unconsciously reached to his chest.

"I named it 'True Heart'. It consumes 1 Essence per minute for functioning. As long as it has an input of Essence, it will work for eternity, only if you are in this dimension. It might even cease to exist outside Zaxaluke."

Lee rubbed his chest and comprehended the information. He further scanned his anatomy and saw the muscle tendons more denser than usual.

When enquired about that, D spoke-

"Do you know how the previous system boosted your performance to match your stats? It was by directly injecting Essence into your limbs and tendons, so as to greatly boost the attributes.

The effect of injection was halved when the system went offline. But due to the large amount of Essence spent on the attributes, almost half of the stats were retained. And still, you got eventually killed.

I am greatly pissed at your performance. So I had made the system the hard way. Each and every point you upgrade will give you moments of pain and uneasiness."

D spoke without looking at his face. Yet, Lee was able to sense the intense discontent in his actions. He too found his actions mildly overconfident.

Focusing back on the anatomy, there were a few additional bone and muscle constructions around the body, which resulted in a slightly greater mobility and strength exhibition. After memorising the new changes in his body, Lee eagerly turned his head to D.

*snap*

A snap by D, and the existing panel disappeared and another came forth. Hudson, Lee and D saw the upgraded system's main panel.
