[Scan results acquired.]
External injuries: Broken left shoulder bone, broken left elbow, left hand paralyzed, right-hand middle finger broken, right arm broken, broken nose.
Internal injuries: Concussion, internal bleeding(low).
'How on earth can someone get so many injuries from just falling on the stairs?!! I can't even flip someone off now... ' Ed couldn't help but feel despair at his body's current state but he remembered the pill he had gotten from the System so his mood improved at once.
"System how can I use the pill I got earlier?"
[Host would need to access it directly and eat it, But seeing that that is currently not possible Host can directly consume it from the Inventory]
"Huh? if I can directly consume it why bother access it in the first place?" Ed couldn't help but get confused.
[directly consuming the pill is possible with help of the system in case the system is not available such a possibility won't exist]
'So even the system won't be available all the times huh...' Ed knew that he needed to get stronger, and he needed to do that fast in case something happens to the system.
[Would Host like to consume the body refining pill?]
"Yes!"
Ed could feel that his body was healing fast and was even improving, the uncomfortable feeling that he had due to being injured was rapidly disappearing, such a thing was obvious since this body was at the bottom of this world so after being healed it would at least be considered a normal body.
[Host's body has been healed. The host is now able to cultivate and use all sorts of skill]
after the System finished speaking, Ed remembered about the skills he had gotten from the gift box and immediately wanted to learn them.
"System how can I use the skills I'd gotten earlier"
[Host can now move so I suggest using the Inventory to access those skills/abilities and draw their cards. After drawing them Host can crush the cards and they will be used]
Ed immediately did as the System had told him and crushed the cards.
*DING*
Learned Sharingan.
Learned Spectral Shadow Steps.
"Hmm, System can I scan the skills that I get?"
[Yes].
"Then scan both of them!"
Sharingan Lvl 1 (1 tomoe): enhanced vision/Chakra sensory vision.
Sharingan Lvl 2 (2 tomoe): Ability to copy movements with great ease.
Sharingan Lvl 3 (3 tomoe): Great Genjutsu affinity.
Spectral Shadow Steps: increase movement speed by 10% each level. Decrease sound when moving
Note 1: every level increases movement speed by 10%.
Nore 2: The sound decrease increases with every level.
'...Isn't this basically asking me to become an assassin?!!' Ed was dumbfounded after reading his skill's description.
'Well what is done is done' " System what about the sword I got how can I use it?"
[The same way that the skills are used however it can be returned to the inventory as it is an item, not a skill]
Ed understood more and more about the System's functions.
'However, I know nothing about swordsmanship so can I even use this sword?'
"System what other items do I have?"
[You still have the 10 Gacha tickets you got from the gift]
'That's right I almost forgot!'"Open up the Gacha function!!"
*DING*
As Ed heard the notification an interface appeared in front of him and it was divided into 5 categories: Weapon, Armor, Skill, Function, and Monster; exactly how the system had described earlier.
'I want to get stronger first so it doesn't make sense to get monsters to fight for me, however, what does the function Gacha mean?' "System what is up with the function Gacha? does it add more functions to the system?"
[No. System functions may increase only when the host acquires certain skills or powers, the function Gacha only helps already existing things to improve such as skill upgrades.]
"System use 3 tickets on weapons, 3 on function, 2 on skill and 2 on armor!"
[Drawing gacha]
*DING*
[Acquired Kunaix2, Shurikenx1, Linen underwearx1, Leather shoesx1, Upgrade cardx1, Transformation cardx1, Game interface, one-sword style, Haggling]
Ed could see that most of what he had gotten was normal, there was even underwear in the Gcsha apparently...However, he was most excited about the game interface and the one-sword style skill he got!
"System what does the game interface do?!"
[The game interface can be merged with the System for easier access to the scan function as well as enabling the host to level up in the world the same way a game character can]
Hearing the System, Ed immediately crushed the 2 skill card he got and finally got to the game interface card ready to crush it, suddenly the system spoke to him.
[Would host like to integrate the game interface into System?, Y/N]
"Yes," there was no reason to hesitate so Ed answered right away.
*DING*
[Integration complete]
"Open up the interface!"
Name: Edward Avalon.
Level: 1.
Stats :
Str : 10.
Agl: 10.
Int: 10.
Def: 10.
Sta: 10.
Skills: One-sword style, Etiquette, Haggling.
Abilities: Sharingan, Spectral Shadow Steps.
Monsters: None.
Evaluation: a slight improvement, but you'll still have a hard time.
Ed couldn't help but chuckle at the evaluation he was given but he soon asked the System.
"Why is there no longer cultivation in the interface?"
[As host integrated the game interface it produced a similar effect to games so cultivation was changed into stats]
After checking up on the interface, Ed wanted to try to activate his ability, the Sharingan, he wanted to know how it felt in real life. Soon his eyes turned red in color and it was as if time suddenly slowed down he could see things very clearly and as he turned his head to the right he could see a strange blue substance moving near the wall.
He was confused at first but soon remembered that the Sharingan can faintly see chakra so he asked the system. "How come I can see chakra when this world shouldn't have it?"
[Chakra is only a name given to the energy humans possess, it has different name due to the way each person refines it. It can be called Ki, Qi, Chakra so on and so forth]
Ed suddenly came to the realization that Becky has been next to his door all this time while he was talking to the system.'The the system even warned me to watch out for my surroundings...'
Suddenly even more people started approaching his room, he could see that it was 4 people and he realized that should be the royal family, his father mother, and siblings.
Now all he could think about was how to talk to his new 'family'...
Hey everyone i hope you're enjoying the story so far. I would like for you to give me your feedback on the chapters and their length.
Ed could hear his new family's footsteps getting closer and he was getting nervous. Then Becky entered his room after knocking to announce that his family is here.
"Let them in"
As the four people walked in he could see that they were indeed worthy of being royalty, his 30 something-year-old father was tall almost 190 cm and looked strong with blond hair and blue eyes he also had a saber hanging down from his waist. His mother was a beautiful woman who was a bit short but that added even more to her charm she also had blond hair and blue eyes, she looked like she was in her twenties.
He could also see his little brother and sister walk in as well. They could only be described as handsome and beautiful; he knew they were both 16 and 8 years old respectively.
"Edward how are you feeling, "His father Arthur asked him with a stern attitude, Ed could feel the disappointment of his father for the state he was in.
"I'm okay now father thank you for your concern "Ed tried to emulate the previous prince's attitude the best he could, It was lucky that they had similar personalities.
"How can you be okay when you're so beat up?! Do you know what would have happened to me if you had died!!"His mother Elizabeth had tears falling down from her eyes.
"I really am okay mother" Ed felt touched by the worry his mother showed.
Although he didn't have a bad relationship with his parents in the world before, they were still separated most of the time due to work, school and even TV and internet.
"Humph if you had been stronger this wouldn't have happened" His brother Eric showed a cold attitude but Ed knew from his memories that this was the way his brother acted; he wanted to be tough all time.
"Are you really okay brother? You won't die will you?!"His sister Bella had tears in her eyes.
"I'm okay Bella don't worry hahaha"
Suddenly his father spoke "Here are a few pills I bought they should help you heal up in less than 3 days"
Just after he put the pills down he instructed Becky to feed the pills to Ed thinking that his hands were still unusable, and then left the room. After talking a bit more with Ed his family also left his room.
Becky came twice that day to feed him the pills and change his bandages; the embarrassment he felt was indescribable.
After he made sure no one would bother him for the rest of the day he got up and started to do some basic workout such as pushups, squats etc...
After he finished his workout he heard a notification from his system
Str+1, Sta+1.
"System how come I gained these stats without leveling up?"
[Reminder that host now lives like a game character, Continuous actions should help you gain stats. However, leveling up is still the best way possible to get stronger]
Ed nodded and got back to bed, it was already late at night so he wanted to sleep and review all that had happened that day since it was no normal day at all.
Ed passed his 3 days while training his body and enduring the embarrassment brought upon him by having a maid. In these 3 days, he was able to increase in Str and Sta stats by 3 more each and even got used to the feeling of dizziness when using the Sharingan, even he can't use it for more than 10 minutes at a times.
On the fourth day's morning, Ed woke up early, took off his bandages and wore his clothes that were, even more, embarrassing especially the coat he had to wear. He then left to meet his father after informing his maid Becky. He was planning to leave for the city market to buy things so he could practice his swordsmanship.
After meeting up with his father he immediately said "Father I would like to leave for the city market"
His father showed slight concern since he knew his son was weak and didn't usually leave the house.
"Are you going to be okay?"
"Yes father"
"Then ask Becky to go with in case something happens"
'So I even need a woman to accompany me ... how did you survive up till now you poor prince'
Ed then immediately headed towards the city market with 100 gold coins; with his attire, everyone knew he had a noble position so no dared to scam him.
He then went inside a blacksmith shop while asking Becky to wait for him. He was looking for a chance to bring out the Murata-tou Katana he had in the Inventory.
As he was strolling around the shop the system suddenly spoke after a while.
[Requesting for host to buy the sword in the corner as it is a rare grade sword]
"What do you mean rare grade? Weapons have grades?"
[All items have grades and they are divided into common, uncommon, rare, epic, legendary, mythical and supreme grade]
"Then why do I have to buy only a rare grade sword shouldn't there be better ones?"
[This sword is the best in the country right now that you can buy, all higher graded swords are part of people's property so you can't buy them, only steal them]
'I see that makes sense, although I wonder how the system knew who has what sword...'
Ed then picked up the sword and went to the counter to buy it.
The shopkeeper then spoke, "that sword is useless so you can have it for only 1 gold coin".
Ed was surprised since the system asked him to buy this sword specifically yet the shopkeeper told him it was useless. He then understood that the shopkeeper's skill was very inferior to what they should be.
Ed paid and immediately left while informing Becky to tell the family to watch out for weapons they buy from this shop.
After strolling around a bit more, Ed bought some herbs used for pill concoction and headed back to his home; he had ended up using only 20 gold coins.
If there are any mistakes please point them out to me so i can fix them, otherwise enjoy :)
