Chapter 374: Unforseen consequence of the system change

Mathew came out from the merchant's subspace a changed man. Both in terms of his mental state but also in terms of nearly every last detail about his system.

'I never expected that advancing to the next logical level would bring me this damned nerf,' he thought, tightening his hands into fists. 'So much for making all our bases more secure…'

Mathew closed his eyes and brought his chin up, heaving a deep sigh towards the skies.

"Mathew?" Nadia asked in a tiny voice, instantly recognizing that something was wrong.

She uttered her call… only to pull her eyebrows together before lowering both her eyelids and her head while bringing her hand to her chest.

All the girls present on the scene followed suit, with looks of confusion blooming on their faces.

"What just happened?" Nadia muttered, her eyes turning wide as she raised her face and took a closer look at Mathew.
