Capítulo 3: System Shop and Regret
Hearing the countdown, Max quickly ran to his bed, fearing that the next time he would find himself sleeping on the floor after his Evolution.
[3....2...1...commencing Evolution]
The next moment, marvelous changes started happening inside Max's body. If someone were to appear there, they would see Max's body glowing in different kinds of light, like an Aurora dancing in the sky on winter nights.
Fortunately, these changes were too insignificant for all those cosmic entities, allowing them to believe that some fortunate soul had come into contact with cosmic energy, leading to this change.
In another location, the Ancient One, who was guiding the students, suddenly raised her head to the North direction.
"What is this anomaly? How come I never saw it coming with the Eyes of Agamotto?" She raised her eyebrows a bit, but then returned to her usual teaching. As long as it wasn't any kind of dimensional threat, there was nothing for her to pay attention to.
In another location, Heimdall, who could see all, said after a moment, "What are you, friend or foe?" Then he returned to his usual peeping stuff.
Heimdall : "...."
Returning to Max, after a few minutes, he opened his eyes. He squinted as his new senses made the sunlight coming through the window a bit too much for his eyes. After a second, his adaptability kicked in, making all his new senses act as if he was born with them, making him feel like nothing remarkable had happened to him.
"I feel... normal. Is this supposed to happen, System?" Max asked as he felt usual.
[Host, your new adaptability made it normal for you.]
[As said earlier, adaptability can make the host adapt in any situation abnormally fast.]
"Hmm, it's both good and bad, I guess," Max muttered as he made his way to the washroom to freshen up.
"My eyes seem a bit different?" Max looked at his reflection in the mirror, which showed a cute kid with golden hair, milky white skin that seemed to glow, and his height, now a few inches taller than his previous self. But the most remarkable feature was his usually bright green eyes, which now had an aquamarine glow to them.
"Well, it's good though," Max muttered while smiling.
"System, show me my profile," Max said when returning to his room.
[Ding]
[Name: Max Potts
Race: Pseudo High Human
CP: Equivalent to a Blue Belt Karate kid
Abilities: Fast Reflexes, Photographic Memory
Item: Servant Template Card × 2.]
"My combat power has remarkably grown, probably due to Fast Reflexes and Photographic Memory," Max smiled while looking at his new profile.
"Now, System, show me what the shop has for me." Max was eager to see the contents of the shop after the Lucky Draw and the remarkable functions of UP.
[Shop:
1. Marvel
2. Overlord
3. Tensura]
"System, explain," Max asked after seeing the unexpected content of the shop.
[Only the contents of those worlds will be available from where the host has withdrawn something.]
"I see, though it's a bit regrettable. But what can I say?" Max shrugged.
"Let's see. First, Overlord," Max mentally commanded.
[Shop: Overlord
1. Skill books
2. Artifacts
3. Characters]
Max browsed through and found many things, especially from the skill book sections. It contained over a million skills, but none of them could be bought as he is dead poor currently.
In the Artifacts section, he even found health potions and other RPG-style potions, unconsciously displaying a wide grin on his face.
"Hmm, full potion, huh? But it's quite expensive compared to all potions," Max said, as this Potion from the Tensura slime world cost 10 UP compared to the 5 UP perfect potion of the Overlord world.
[Full potion can heal both injuries and all abnormalities, compared to only the healing effect of the perfect Health potion.]
Max nodded as he then went to the Marvel section, where all kinds of Artifacts that appeared in both comics and cinematic version were available.
"Now, the next plan is training until I can control the powers of Mukluan rings. Plus, I can plagiarize... cough spread divine anime knowledge from my previous world and earn some money from it," Max thought of his next course of action.
[Host, it is advised to use only a single ring at a time. That's the limit the host can bear now.]
".... Then what before evolution?" Max asked, hearing the unexpected words of the system.
[One minute after that, the host would have died by an explosion even if the host only used one ring's powers. Though time could be increased with continuous training]
"Hmm, looks like I have to train seriously," Max thought with a serious look. Even if he knew the Avengers would save everyone in the end, he still had to take some precautions, as it's not a comic or a movie, but it's a real world for him now. He didn't know if his presence would have any effect on future events.
"System, show me the Quests," Max commanded.
[Quests:
Daily quest: Become strong
Condition: Do Basic Saitama exercise
Rewards: 1 UP
(Repeatable)
Main quest: Become Strong
Condition: Make a self-created skill from Mukluan rings
Rewards: Each self-created skill will grant 10 UP
Time limit: 1 year]
"Two quests but with the same name. System, you need to be creative," Max said with a smirk.
[....]
"Anyway, these two are simple for someone with a vast amount of anime knowledge," Max said confidently.
After a year,
"System, profile," *Huff* Pants * Max said while sitting on a bench in the park.
[Name: Max Potts
Race: High Human (Rare rank)
CP: Black belt karate kid
Abilities: Super Reflexes, Photographic Memory, Great strength, stamina, speed, Small regeneration, Swordsmanship (C), Close Combat (B)
Skill(s): Elemental Sword, Solar Ray, World of Darkness, Disintegration Fist
Item: Servant Template Card × 2.
UP: 400]
"Hahh, I thought making new skills would be easier, but who would've thought, only skills that are at least rank D-grade in the System book are acknowledged," Max said with a defeated look, seeing his pitiful amount of UP.
The only good thing that happened to him was his unexpected evolution, which occurred due to the Mukluan rings' constant use, as the cosmic energies of the rings tempered his body after continuous usage.
"Now, time to get my maid. System, show me the location of Felicia Hardy and the time of the incident that changed her," Max said, remembering the pitiful past template heroine.
He was going to take advantage of the assault event that was going to occur to get acquainted with her, win her trust, and then, when she took the serum her dad left, he would add her to his team of superheroes, which currently now had two candidates, Spider-Man and his girlfriend Gwen Stacy.
[It will cost 10 UP.]
"Just do it," Max said sourly, as he was now understanding how invaluable those 1000 UP were, which he mindlessly wasted, as the same effect could be achieved after 10 years of continuous Mulkan rings usage
