Chương 20: Evolving Infinitely
Their stares were stabbing me with suspicion while I opened the system's store, which I could only see.
[Store: Displayed]

[Armor Shop] -
[Skill Shop] -

[Mana Currency: 5,720]
With my current mana energy, I think I'll be able to buy good ones. But I should still choose wisely since I can't afford to consume all of my mana energy, especially when I can't increase my level anymore in this place.
I immediately tapped the skill shop and scrolled all over as if I were doing something with a tablet.

Everything before me were truly outstanding skills that everyone would die to have; the costs were extremely expensive, but the fact that they were too overpowering made me think carefully about them.
What should I pick? I want them all." I mumbled, trying to ask Grand for some help in choosing the best skills needed for the situation and in the future.
[You should purchase Magic Bullet Enhancement, Prophet Magic Mastery, Downfall, Independence, Force Growth, and Magic Corridor.]
[Note: The store will be permanently closed after buying for the second time.]
Eh? Why would it close?"
[Stores are non-permanent features given to system holders. They are just a boost-up feature that will help the system holder's growth flourish.]
[Two times is all it has, and it will disappear forever.]
The fact that it'll close means that I should secure the ones you've mentioned, right? But how am I going to buy all of it since my mana energy won't be enough."
[Notice: Please first purchase the Independence and Magic Corridor.]
As I gulped and stared at the holographic tabloid before me, the Wild Life party stared at my actions intently, curious as to why I was seriously staring at a blank area.
"What's he doing? He's been standing there for about five minutes now." said Arthur, who tapped Lucas's shoulder.
"I don't know." Lucas replied without batting an eye.
And after I purchased the first two skills that Grand mentioned, everything felt like it paused.
[Notice: Independence and the Magic Corridor have been activated.]
[Grand has gained full authority over the host's body.]
[Mana energy has been increased infinitely.]
I stood without blinking, staring at the notifications that popped out in front of me.
[Grand will now operate independently and purchase the necessary skills required for the situation and for the future of the host.]
[Purchasing...]
The holographic tabloid moved up and down on its own, purchasing everything that Grand had mentioned earlier, while I dozed off and blankly stared as Grand did everything.
[Report: Necessary skills have been purchased.]
[Reprogramming entity: Heinz Kruger]
A loud thump occurred in my chest, forcing me to stumble on my knees. Bright lights shone around my bare skin as I glowed radiantly.
"What's happening?" I muttered, only to see my surroundings turn into an abyss that was darker than the darkest black I've known.
[Activating sequence...]
[Skills have been successfully added.]
[Magical Bullet Enhancement has been combined.]
[Upgrade Successful.]
Upgrade?" I wondered, looking at the notifications that popped out before my eyes.

After seeing my status, I was totally in shock.
My Mana energy turned infinite. Just what is going on?" I mumbled in my head, unable to comprehend and believe what was happening.
[You have successfully gained full hold of the system.]
[System holders rarely encounter the Magic Corridor, which makes them infinitely powerful.]
[Therefore, Master, you are truly a lucky person.]
[You shall now see this world anew, for there are no threats existing that could harm you.]
Grand's words kept me mesmerized, as if she were telling me that I had totally become a powerful individual that no one would even manage to scratch.
It made me somewhat happy to know that I can attain freedom as long as I'm powerful. But what bothered me the most was when Grand mentioned the word system holders. making it seem that I am not the only one who has ever gotten ahold of a system.
I may have become the most powerful being in Grand's eyes, but this world is too mysterious and vast for me and Grand to analyze every living being and ensure that I am the only living being that could be called the strongest.
And just like that, I turned into a limitless being with infinite mana energy.
A truly horrifying boost to imagine.
My surroundings turned back, and I noticed the party behind me was gossiping about me, and I glanced at the front, looking at the Fenrir, which was in an extremely severe state.
Just as I was about to say something to Grand, she began initializing and healing the fenrir.
[Skill: Prophet Magic of Healing has been activated.]
A bright light shone, lurking all over the fenrir's body, while the party behind me stared in awe.
[All abnormal status and pain have been nullified and removed.]
[Healing complete.]
[Subject: Fenrir has been healed.]
The fenrir's heartbeat began stabilizing, and its body turned clean, leaving no traces of the severe wounds it previously had.
"Holy shit!" Lucas abruptly yelled, his eyes gauging out.
"No chant, and extreme healing speed!" Rin yelled, describing the phenomenon that they just witnessed.
"So he can also use healing? Unbelievable." Arthur muttered in silence, clenching his fist.
I looked at them and smiled, leaving them to flinch.
"Are you a saint?" Rin muttered, asking my identity.
I glanced at them as they stared at me intently. "I am not a saint." I said, shaking my hands.
"Then what are you? You used a weapon that shoots faster than arrows. To add it up, it had the destructive power of an advanced-level magic spell that can one-shot goblins. Plus, you just used an ultra-fast healing spell that even Rin was left in awe. Just what are you, Sir Heinz?" asked Arthur, who was totally curious about my real identity.
Well, I had no reason to tell them every detail since Grand kept bugging me not to trust too much in humans. I also had my fair share of experiences with humans back on earth, but being careful not to expose any weaknesses is still necessary.
[You are correct; therefore, I suggest you ignore their question.]
Yeah, you're right, Grand."
I walked closer towards them and tapped Arthur's shoulder and said, "I can't tell you, so don't ask, but simply know this: I'm not a threat, so please relax."
I'm sure they thought of me differently; just by looking at my eyes, they can instantly tell that I'm not some normal human.
But I hope they find my answer to be believable since I just want to live in peace, acquire freedom, and do what I want.
But first things first, what am I going to do with the fenrir?" I wondered, staring at it while it seemed unconsciously more stable now than before.
Meanwhile, Arthur and the others looked hesitant about bringing me to their place. Just by looking at their stares, I feel like they don't want me to come with them.
Arthur then walked forward, looking like he was about to sigh.
"Let me be frank with you, Sir Heinz; I can't bring you to our town." he said in a straightforward manner.
The other four were looking at me in agreement. I already anticipated this, but I guess I can't force them to bring some unknown, powerful individual back to their home.
"It's fine, Arthur; no need to be so serious." I said, chuckling a bit to ease the atmosphere.
"I'm truly thankful to you. If it were not for you, we could have been killed by the goblins." he said, bowing his head slightly at me while the other four did the same.
"I just did what I had to." I replied, looking at them as they bowed.
After that, they went their way and left me and the fenrir in the forest.
I looked at their backs as they walked further away from me until I could not see their shadows anymore.
[Report: The three individuals have yet to move.]
I see, so they're still watching, huh?"
[It seems they are preparing for an ambush attack.]
Ambush, huh? Then I just have to ambush them first." I said through thought communication and smirked, looking in the direction where the three individuals were currently hiding.
I took a few steps into an open area and uttered
"Shall we start?"
Chapter End.
