Chapter 2：The System Deity

Yman woke up early on Sunday morning. Because he believes at the sayings that, "the early birds that get a choice which is more important than the worm itself".

He knew this well, that's why he got up early on that morning because the one who came early at the venue of the evaluation exam would be able to choose a better starting skill. But for some reason, he had been dragged in the alleyway and ganged up by the group of five youths before he arrived at the venue.

Therefore, he was late and had no choice left but to get the worst starting skill among the rest, the self-healing magic.

He not only got a starting skill, but also a System Deity.

The system deity was a round ball object as big as a golf ball. With designs of profound carving and imprint. To activate the System Deity, the owner must feed it with his own energy to light up all the imprint on its body, then it would spread automatically at the back of the owner's neck like a wristwatch, and after it was stuck on the owner's neck, they could follow up by whispering the word 'RESONANCE'.

System Deity was a super system that boosted the mortal body. Even if the user had been stabbed to his/her heart or head, they won't die.

Even if the health points reached zero...he won't die as long as he was in resonance with the system deity. But he/she would revert back to a normal person again and their resonance would be canceled automatically, then they couldn't use resonance for a month or depend on how long the person would be able to recover.

The most important thing to do when the user's body regressed back to a normal person...was to hide quickly from danger. Or else, no more third life awaited for him/her.

After Yman whispered the word "resonance", a full display of window interface appeared on his vision.

The truth was, any magician that was in contract with the System Deity was able to summon their Window Interface even not in their resonance mode. This window interface was also known as...

"Cyber Screen," Yman spoke softly.

It was followed by...

A lovely female voice tickled his ears, which followed by pop up notifications.

Since this was his first time, he chose the choices. System Deity was a super-intelligent system and could converse to humans like a normal person.

Yman's mouth leaked a smile. He was excited!

Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap! Tap!

He didn't even think twice as he chose this name. It probably had a deep reason behind it.

After chose the choices, a list of sections in his interface had appeared. He tapped on the Status section. *Bling!* A magical sound rang in his ears. Followed by:

•STATUS SECTION•

•Self Healing Magic

Currently, he only had strength and vitality to his Attributes. And the worst thing of all, he only had 1 point on both.

To increase his attributes, he needed to buy a special medicine or train.

To increase his level, he needed to pay using his gold points(There's a reason why they use gold points as currency in this era).

Once they level up, their attribute points would also increase. But the price of medicine to advance their level wasn't low. They needed 1,000 gold points per level of advancement.

However, the cost would increase depending on his/her level. Not just that, he/she must have a high CE(Combat Experience).

As of now, Yman has 100 gold points to his wallet section in his Cyber Screen. These points were his allowance for a month. And his CE was 10/100.

For Yman, what he wanted most was to learn a new skill first. A combat skill, like fireball or wind blades.

There were several ways to get them.

The first and the most common way was to buy a skill book or ability scroll on the market or auction using the gold points.

The second way was to learn a skill through arduous training.

And then the third way was to kill the monster's elder. These elders usually brought a skill book with them, because mostly they couldn't use a spell without it.

If a person were lucky to kill one, he/she could take the skill book from it. Different skill books have different prices, but ordinary ones usually cost thousands of gold points.

Well, there was also a free random skill when a magician upgraded their System Deity for the first time. Specifically, their deity could also learn a skill through upgrading.

And the last among the rest was to train some ancient or legendary techniques that were passed down by their ancestors.

However, learning this type of magic was not an easy feat, it was only compatible with people gifted with an abundance of Mana or being direct descendants of their clans.

Yman at the moment was currently fighting a toad. There were many kinds of toads. But today Yman was fighting the weakest one, the Pale Toad.

He found out that it's not easy to level and earn points. Even though this toad was as big as a pig and moves slowly, his damage was one thing that made him want to vomit a mouthful of blood.

Currently,

10/100 Health points left on the toad. But Yman also wasn't in good shape. His health points were 30 and almost depleted all his stamina. Every damage he took from the toad tongue-whip, was minus 10 points to his health. His stamina at most 10% left.

|Shit! Looks like my stamina will be the first to empty. With my self-healing magic, I can heal myself as much as I want. But my stamina will be consumed every time I cast magic. Tsk! I need to kill this one before going home.|

He dashed forward again and about to swing his sword but the toad flung its tongue toward his head. Yman ducked quickly.

*swish!*

Sound of whipping an empty air had reached his ears. He swung rapidly his wooden sword to the toad's body. This toad wasn't so quick.

Zing! Zing!

5/100, Now the Pale Toad health points were 5 only. Yman became more eager to kill it, but he needed to be careful too.

The toad was breathing deeply and clearly tired.

Yman took a step back, he needed great timing to perfectly before rushing in to finish the toad. The toad slowly opened its mouth. Yman gazes on it in a full alert.

He noticed the tongue that came rushing towards him from its mouth. He smiled lightly and ducked quickly but...suddenly he felt a bad premonition and shifted from ducking to diving on his right in a quick motion.

*Woosh!*

*Bang!*

-20Hp

Ugh!

Yman was hit by a fireball that came from his back. Now his clothes were on fire. He dived quickly on the pond to stop the fire from spreading.

*Splash!*

"Haha oops! Did you guys see a frog jumping on the pond?" Asked by the young man to his entourage.

"Haha, I saw one! Shall we kill it too?" answered by another young man.

When Yman stood up, he saw 6 youth, 5 of them were the ones who ganged up on him this morning. The other one was no other than their leader and the cause of why he was late for this morning evaluation exam. The leader of the group was known as Kiko the hot-headed youth.

Yman shot a glare at them. Waters dripping from his body and his clothes were tattered.
