Chapter 8: The Systems Bullshit Notification
Relaxing in his room Dino opened the system. however before he had a chance to speak, a notification popped up.
-
[Ding]
[Host unlocked a new skill after showing great prowess, while using this skill during the conversation with Eddie and Jason]
[Would host like to view new skill?]
'Yes.'
[Now showing hosts new skill…..]
[…..Bullshitting (Skill grade: Maxed)]
-
Seeing his new skill Dino was at a loss for what to say. It was true that during the conversation with Eddie and Jason that he'd had to stretch the truth a little, but he wouldn't call it bullshitting; it wasn't like he could tell them that he was a reincarnater with a system stuck in his head, that gifted him certain skills and abilities due to how much good karma he had from his past life. Though it didn't matter, it was another skill that would help him in the long run, so he just smiled and let it go.

'Hey Tory.'
[Hello host, what can I help you with?]
'I've been noticing some behavioural anomalies, could you perhaps find out the cause?'
[Of course, Please explain the anomalies you have been experiencing?]
'Unusual levels of aggression, overly playful, joy from intimidating people and a sense that the people around me are beneath me.'
[Analyzing symptoms, please wait....]
[... Symptoms analysed…]
[Host is experiencing these symptoms due to hosts new classification.]
'Your saying all of this is caused simply by my classification?'
[Yes host, that is correct. Fundamentally the host is still the same person but due to the fact, that host is now classified as an Apex predator, host personality may experience some anomalies like he has done.]
'Is there nothing I can do to avoid it?'
[I'm afraid not host. I apologize]
'It's not your fault Tory. I'll just have to try to get used to it. I do have a question though, what exactly does the Apex predator classification change about me, other than the slight personality changes?'
[Your Apex predator classification essentially upgrades your genetics to the evolved state of the original genome. So, a normal human becomes an Apex Human, Stronger, faster, more intelligent essentially making you the top predator, the Apex of that species.]
'You said the Apex of that species? Does that mean when I unlock the other parts of my DNA, that I'll have the Apex version of that genome too?'
[That is correct host.]
'Do you know what species or aliens were used in my creation?'
[I'm afraid I don't host.]
'I figured as much. Thanks anyways Tory.'
[Is there anything else I can help you with host?]
'Show status.'
[At your request.]

'I can't believe bullshitting is an actual skill.'
[Bullshitting can get you far in life, especially if you're skilled in it, like host is.]
Dino could have sworn he heard laughing but just decided to dismiss it.
'Tory, when do you think I should use the growth pills?'
[I advise host to use the pills when you're away from prying eyes. Host doesn't want to draw anymore attention than he already has.]
'Hmm you're probably right. So I should use them once I'm out of the facility?'
[That would probably be for the best.]
'Okay thanks Tory.'
[No problem host.]
Just as Dino was about to further explore the system an explosion shook the facility.
The door to his room slid open revealing Eddie with a weapon in hand and blood running down his arm. The smell of blood and Eddie's injured form triggered the glow in Dino's eyes.
During the last week or so Dino and Eddie had become friends and seeing his friend in such a state ignited something ruthless inside Dino, without realizing he began to release killing intent.
"Cough….cough….Dino we need to get out of here. The base has been attacked." Despite being heavily injured Eddie was still standing.
The glow in Dino's became even more intense.
"Do we know by who?" he asked.
"….cough….. as of this…. Cough cough… moment no. We need to get out of here. Everyone else has either escaped…..cough… or is dead." Eddie answered while coughing up a dangerous amount of blood.
"Eddie sit down for crying out loud, you're injured." Dino said in a slightly annoyed tone.
"No we need to get out of here."
"And we will but we won't get anywhere with the state you're in." Dino spoke calmly.
Finally doing what he was told he sat down and rested.
'Tory, is there anything in the shop I can give Eddie, that will heal him?'
[Healing pills are available but if you use one on someone else host won't be able to access them again until a week later.]
'Okay, how about knock out pills?'
[They are also available but the same rules apply.]
'Buy both pills'
[The knock out pill works for 1 hour. Would host like to confirm his purchase?]
'Confirm.'
[Items added to inventory.]
'Thanks Tory, open system.'

Dino grabbed both pills out of his inventory and moved toward Eddie.
"Eddie take these, they're painkillers."
Eddie was in so much pain, he grabbed them and swallowed them without complaining. In the next moment the knockout pill kicked in making him slump in his chair. Soon after the healing pill kicked in and began to heal his wounds. The hard part now was trying to explain to him how he'd miraculously healed but he would deal with that when he needed too.
He took Eddie's gun holster and wore it, placing the weapon within. Putting his jacket on and placing Eddie over his shoulder. Dino stood before his door as it slid open. Taking a step forward. It was time to get the hell out of here.
