Bab 3: Purification Step One
"Then how can I cultivate, Tracker?"
Orion questioned the tracker.
[It's due to the tracker host can cultivate without any jnana Vriksha!]
"Alright, Now I understand!"
Orion nodded as he finally understood.
"But can u call this word something else? I have trouble pronouncing the name,"
[Okay, Jnana Vriksha would now be referred to as talent.]
"Any specific reason?"
[It is as you have guessed host, Talent determines the rate of your cultivation and how far you will go in terms of it.]
[Talent or Jnana Vriksha order is lowest to highest-- E, D, C, B, A, A+]
[The higher your talent is, the faster you will grow and the farther you can go.]
Tracker gave a simple description of the talent.
Orion took his time to understand all the data.
"Then if I don't have talent, how would I will increase my cultivation?"
[By using different kinds of materials, Host can exchange points for it and become more powerful than ever.]
"Okay, Now I get it!"
[Is the Host willing to exchange the Healing Grass for one PowerPoint?]
"Yup!"
Orion gave an affirmative answer.
[Ding!]
[The Healing Grass has been exchanged for one power point.]
Boom!
The healing grass in Orion's hands disappeared and a comforting feeling took over him.
His body full of wounds started healing at a visible rate and slowly all the wounds disappeared from his body.
Shoo!
Something like a liquid in his heart flowed and his body started getting stronger.
He felt an intense itch and couldn't help but scratch.
After some time, this feeling disappeared and his body became much more muscular than before.
[Congratulations Host for reaching Purification Step One.]
[ Host-- Orion
Cultivation Rank-- Purification step one [1/5]
Strength-- Ten times of an ordinary adult man.]
A small panel once again appeared before him on the stormy night.
Orion looked at the data and went back to the broken home.
He still saw Angelica sleeping on the bed with a warm expression.
He tried to find any other bed, but couldn't as they were dirt poor to afford that.
"You're back, Orion?"
Angelica slowly opened her eyes and smiled.
"Uhh Yeah!"
Orion who was Shiva has fully adopted this new identity, but still couldn't get used to it.
"Then come and sleep idiot, You will get cold!"
Angelica invited him with an innocent expression, reminding him of Isla again.
Orion could not refuse it as he was pulled onto the bed by her.
She took him in her arm and went to sleep again, while Orion's mind became a bit fuzzy due to the rosy scent coming from her.
Nevertheless, as this body was used to sleeping with her, he did not get that much uncomfortable and took her in his arms and slept.
In the morning, it was a beautiful day in the spirit world as the sun rose in the sky while jasmine and lilies bloomed spreading out the wonderful smell in the environment.
Angelica slowly opened her eyes and found herself in Orion's arms who was still sleeping with a peaceful expression on his face.
She found something different about him today as if he was looking more dashing and handsome.
She tried to leave his arms but his hands were too strong to be budged which surprised her.
"Orion, wake up! It's morning time and I gotta pick the flowers,"
She gave him a gentle push, and Orion slowly opened his eyes.
Her beautiful face which resembled Isla and her blonde hair similar to her, coupled with that same rosy scent and comforting aura, Orion hugged her again.
"Good Morning, Isla!"
Angelica's expression changed as she heard another girl's name.
This time, she gave him a push which was not so gentle.
"Who is Isla?"
Her expression was dark as she looked at him.
Orion's consciousness became clear and his eyes widened.
"Where Am I? Was the dream from last night, not a dream but I reincarnated?"
"What are you blabbering about? Has your memory still not been retained?"
Angelica looked at him with concern.
Orion calmed himself down and accepted the reality that he has reincarnated into a cultivation world in which a girl similar to Isla is his friend.
"I retained all the memory, but a beautiful face such as yours mesmerised me, so I apologise for my previous random words,"
Although his body is of that fifteen years old, he could still fool a fourteen years old naive girl who has not seen the world.
And it worked as Angelica's beautiful face turned red then she ran away without saying anything.
Orion's face turned dark as he recalled someone beating the previous soul of this body to death and also eyed his precious Isla.
His obsession did not leave him even after death as Angelica became the new Isla for him due to her resemblance, whether she was Isla reincarnated into a new world or not, it was not gonna end well for many people.
"Tracker, Are you there?"
[Yes, Host.]
Orion's eyes glinted with bright light as he saw the panel.
After some time, Orion refreshed himself and went to help Angelica with picking up flowers.
He went there for two reasons. First, he wanted to help her and second, he wanted to find any rare grass or plant which could help him by giving him some power points.
As exited the home, the village appeared before his face which was in bad condition as there were only twenty houses.
Some of them were broken like his and only one was in decent condition, which Orion derived was the home of the chief's home.
There in the far distance, he saw Angelica and some small girls picking up flowers.
The morning breeze was caressing her face as she was gracefully picking them.
Then she went to a nearby well and started taking out water using the rope.
"Let me do this!"
With his fast speed, he arrived at the well in an instant.
Angelica was surprised to see his good speed and spirit.
"No, It's all right, I can do this,"
Even though she was happy that he was willing to help, he was still a weak injured boy so she refused him with a smile.
"Shut up and lemme do this!"
Orion became a bit aggressive and snatched the pulling rope from her hand and started pulling water out of it.
Angelica was surprised again as she saw him becoming more and more dominant as he pulled water out of the well easily.
She was about to say something when a teen voice was heard.
"Oho, you can still pull the water out of the well after that beating?"
