Chapter 157: HMSP

Valthan, Star Strider? What the hell was that name? I guess it was the name of this guy before I high jacked his body for the game. That was interesting; later, I might get to pick my Avatars when World Walking. 

"Valthan is cool, but I'm Dave, hehe; let's go with Dave Star Strider for now. So we get there real fast, how fast?"

"Fifteen hours," Alta announced out of force of habit, I'm sure.

"Well, what is the current status of the planet? Since speedy here will get us ahead of everyone who knows what's going on, I need some info on what these wraith things are."

Alta pulled up a menu in the air in front of him as a blue screen and selected a file. 

Suddenly, an image of a man/fish/deep-sea creature appeared. It had large black eye's and its skin was so black that all you could see was the reflection of the eyes and the vicious long teeth translucent teeth in its oval-shaped mouth. The rest of the body was similar in shape to a human, but the head was more deep-sea angler with gills at its neck. The last notable thing about it was the newt like tail and that it had four webbed hands, two where feet should have been. 

The hand feet were similar to the early stages of primates, but it would be nearly impossible to walk outside of water with the webs. So, then, what was this? A war of jealousy? They had an entire ocean, and they couldn't get along?

"So, what the big deal right now, as much as this seems like a bad problem, it is just two races fighting over what? Or it is just the wraith attacking without provocation?"

"The Xenophin and Wraiths are one and the same people, but one evolved differently over time. The General Fiori of the Wraiths thinks that the people forced them into the dark that they dwell in. None of that is true, these are just what happens with evolution, but the tipping point was when the Xenophin started to form Hydroglobe cities deep in the water for Xenophin to live in."

"Let me take a stab in the dark. The Wraiths can't breathe oxygen, and the Xenophin can?"

"Yes, now the Fiori is taking this as an insult directed at the Wraiths. But it is her council that has enlisted the help of the Wrexallia. Now they are attacking the settlement and trying to trap Xeno-Tsunami. We need to you try to talk to Fiori; things might be able to be salvaged; only one-third of their army are infected with the Unlife Cores, so if you can make her see reason, we might prevent them from getting involved and making the Wrexallian's job a lot harder."

Even as Alta talked out loud, each critical point would trigger another download. Well, now I knew everything that I needed to about the situation. God, I hope she is a lot prettier than this guy! The picture in front of me wouldn't be attractive in any light or with any amount of alcohol. 

"Okay, I get it. I have enough of a picture to start forming a coherent plan; thanks, guys. We will talk more later."

I dismissed them, and they vanished with the floating wraith. I moved up into the front seat to sit across from Kyrina and smiled at her. She was in her red and black dress with pink lace, but her hair was red now, fiery, and it lit up her face.

"How are you feeling? You haven't slept yet."

"I am fine; someone kept me close to their bosom the entire time! Do I get to go out and play with the others this time?"

//Special Harem Mission: Make HM [Kyrina] blush within 30s to acquire HMSP

Shit! Okay, I can do this, twenty-six seconds left! What do I say?

"I can't let you come play with Aquina and me later if that's what you mean?"

I leaned forward with a coy smile, putting one hand on the top of her seat, stepping out of my own. I let my other hand slide up her thigh, leaning slowly in…

//Special Harem Mission: Complete! 1 HMSP for [Kyrina] has been awarded. Would you like to activate the point? Yes/No?

Mom, can I tell the girls about the System?

//Yes, but even know, the harder they resist, the more the System will target them for future mission -Tequila.

"Hey, before we start getting r-rated where everyone can see, I want to tell you about some things else that I got from the Mini-Game."

Kyrina's face was stained red, but I scooped her out of the chair. Then I turned around to sit in the same chair, but now with Kyrina in my lap. She was resting her head on my shoulder, and I wrapped my arms around her.

"I was given a permanent System designed to help all of us, The Harem System."

Kyrina started to shake with laughter, and I was way too infectious. Soon, both of us were laughing together, but I was able to get her calmed down.

"I'm serious! That was what I was just doing, I had a mission to make you blush in thirty seconds, and now I have a skill point to give you, but I have no idea what it will do. Considering…"

//Stop! Don't or the System will brick you!

Whatever bricking was, I didn't want a part of it. I guess I can't talk about the Dere stats.

"...The weird things it makes me do to earn you guys the points."

"Sounds more like a perverted system!"

"Haha, I said that too! But, check it out; let's see what this point is going to do, I have another one, but I'm going to keep an extra one me all the time, just in case we need them in a bind to give someone a boost."

"Well, if you have it, I can't argue about it, and now you have me interested."

Alright, Harem Member Special Points Number One!
