Well, having the status page in front of me is one thing, but looking at my surroundings, I can almost be certain that this is not Earth.
I can also be certain of 1 more thing, that I died on Earth.
That's because the last thing I can remember is that I was trying to hack a famous game from back from Earth and create a skill called manipulation.
This skill essentially allows me to control NPCs completely. My goal by doing so was to get the best resources from the game quickly.
Then, I remember getting struck by lightning and here I am.
Looking at this status page, I am sure that this system from the game has followed me to this new world.
I then pressed on the 2 Unique skills that I have.
[Identify: Allows you to gain information about the person/item the host is looking at. The amount of information displayed depends on the host's level. Since the host has Maxed this skill, he will be able to see the maximum amount of information displayed.]
[Manipulation Level 1: This skill allows the host to completely control another living being to the hosts desire. There are a few conditions for the skill to be put in use: The cultivation of the person who is about to be manipulated, cannot be 3 great realms higher than the host. The person who is about to be manipulated has to be in front of the host.
Current number of people who can be manipulated at the same time: 3
The number will increase with the increase in the host's cultivation.]
'Yes, this seems familiar, although when I made this skill I did not make the condition of being 3 levels within…WAIT CULTIVATION!? I AM IN THE CULTIVATION WORLD?'
This is when I started to panic full on. The cultivation world is probably the worst world I could have been transmigrated into.
Young Masters, Sect leaders, old grandpas and many more, all people who will kill you for looking at them funny.
First things first, I need to find out more about this world… The most efficient way for me to do this, is to find a high ranking merchant and manipulate him into 'helping' me.
But to even meet this type of person, I am going to have to be a bit stronger than I am right now. Either that, or I can just try my luck.
I walked around the town which seemed to be from the 18th century and eventually found a large building.
I walked into the hall and saw that there were a lot of people inside the main hall.
There was a group which seemed like rogue cultivators, discussing some deal.
A group which was haggling down prices.
I eventually was able to spot a receptionist who was free.
She looked beautiful. She was decently tall at around 1.7m and had a mature physice.
I decided to walk up to her and ask her my questions.
However, I probably should have been a little smarter, considering the fact that this is the cultivation world.
"Hi ma'am, may I please know if there is any way I can find out more about this town. I am new, you see.."
Right as I was about to finish my sentence, the receptionist spat right at me," Listen here you little beggar. Go find someone else to bother. Look at your clothes, you probably just some abandoned scholar trying to look for money aren't you? Well go find someone else's day to ruin!"
It was then I realized that I have taken the wrong approach into doing what I want.
'Manipulate,' I thought as I directly used my skill on her.
She immediately became obedient and didn't say a word.
I then thought out my commands,' you are going to follow my every word from now on. There will be no disobedience whatsoever.'
Then, she seemed to come back to reality and was about to continue her rant until I said," Stop, I don't want to hear you speak bullshit. Bring me to the highest ranking person you can bring me to."
She nodded and led me to another room.
While I was walking across the hall-ways, I suddenly realized something,' these characters are definitely not English…how am i able to understand them? Well, it is not something I need to worry about immediately.'
"Here we are," she said as she eventually brought me to what seemed like the 'Main Bosses' room.
She then opened the room door and I saw a fat man sitting at a sofa with 4 naked women right in front of him.
"WHO DARES TO, oh, it is little Meng. Well since you are here you can join these 4 sluts immediately."
He then looked behind 'little meng' to find me standing behind her.
Before I could hear his normal Wuxia standard threats, I used to identify him.
[Too much information is known about the target.]
[The main information that the host requires will be shown]
[Name: Xia Lu
Cultivation Level: Mid Stage Foundation Establishment
Class: -Merchant-
Title: -Corrupt Merchant-
Skills: Haggling, Smooth Talk, Etc…
Overall Evaluation: A fat pig who sits and watches money come in. The 4th richest person in the current city you are in. The 2nd strongest person in this city. He is also in the range of which manipulation can be used.]
After confirming that manipulation can be used, I used it on him and set the command to be 'listen to my every word.'
When he became docile I said," send these women away and get dressed."
The second he heard my words he got dressed.
I then looked at Little Meng and gave her my command.
