*Ding! You accepted the hidden quest.

*Ding! You opened the credit limit system. 150,000 credits added to the limit.

*Ding! You unlocked the Unique Weapons category. Everything except the Unique Items section has been locked.

*Ding! Platinum-grade purification stone was purchased. 50,000 credits were reduced from the credit limit.

*Ding! The purification store was sent to the inventory.

*Ding! Your remaining credit limit is 110,000 credits.

”Open inventory.”

Mark took out a brightly glowing stone and inspected it.

Purification stone

Grade: Platinum

Effect:

1) Removes all debuffs from the target.

2) The target can be a living or non-living thing

”Hmm… the effects are quite good but it is a pity to spend so much of credits on a one-time use item. Anyway, it was already bought. There’s no use in thinking about it now. I should get to work but there’s no hurry to wake up the king. First, let’s shop a little bit.

What do I lack?

I have an amulet to improve my magic power.

I have a glove to improve my creation rate.

I have two powerful unique skills and two bloodline skills.

I have two powerful Androids to follow my orders and protect my life.

Apart from that, there’s Howitzer that can take out 7-circle from the ground and an attack helicopter that can take out my enemies from the air. After this quest, I will get something to attack from water too.

So, what do I lack now? Hmm…”

Mark thought for a while about whether he can buy something now that he has enough Credit limit left.

Last time, when he had about 74k credits, he thought of buying an attribute but backed down because of facing the reality. However, now, the situation is different. He can afford two more basic attributes or 1 variant attribute or an advanced attribute.

As soon as the thought appeared in his mind, Mark made the decision and went ahead with the purchase.

”Open Store”

The list of categories appeared. Only Bloodlines is grayed out. Mark clicked on Attributes.

Basic: 50000 credits

Fire, Water, Earth, Lightning (owned), Wind, Light, Dark

Variant: 75000 credits

Metal, Shadow, Sound, Space, Magnet, Crystal, Gravity, Oil

Advanced: 100000 credits

Ice (owned), Wood, Poison, Plasma, Lava, Storm, Glass, Acid, Sand

Super Advanced: 1,000,000 credits

Not available-Reach level-6 system to unlock

**

”Super advanced? This option wasn’t there before. Well, it doesn’t matter either way. The system is still at level-3. To get to level-4, I need 1 million gold coins worth of transactions, which I will acquire soon.

For level-5, it might be 5 million or even 10 million. And to get level-6, I wonder how much it will be needed. Hmm, by that time, maybe, the credit limit will increase to 1 million. But, it isn’t something that I should worry about now. Let’s focus on the present.”

His eyes then shifted to the variant section.

Mark could buy any attribute in the list but his eyes were fixed on only one.

”Okay, here we go…” He clicked on the attribute that he wanted to buy and proceed with the purchase.

*Ding! You purchased the Space attribute. 75000 credits have been reduced from the credit limit.

*Ding! Your remaining credit limit is 35000 credits.

*Ding! Space Attribute has been integrated into the character.

*Ding! Spirit Path is detected as a summoner. No Space attribute beasts exist in the system.

*Ding! Error

”No space attribute beasts? You, damn…” Mark was stunned by the notification, feeling as if he was conned by his system. As a person who experienced the punishment for the use of profanity language directed at the system, he barely managed to swallow the words. However, he won’t back down either. After all, it’s 75k credits, equaling 375k gold coins.

Just as he was about to protest, the system probably thought of the solution and sent him a notification.

*Ding! Mandatory Quest for the Second Spirit Path has been triggered.

Quest: Awaken Second Spirit Path

Description: A few attributes like Space or Sound don’t have corresponding beasts and are not recommended for the Summoner path. To solve the issue, the host had to awaken the second spirit path.

Complete the following tasks to awaken the second spirit path.

1) Sell a firearm, which wasn’t designed or manufactured by the system.

2) Upgrade the system to level 4.

3) Improve the ether energy points to reach a minimum of 100,000.

4) Sell at least one weapon of every type that can be mass-produced by the system (excluding Exclusive weapons).

Reward: Choose Mage/ Assassin

**

The quest made him a lot calmer than before. The system proved that it was fair but for Mark, this is an opportunity in misfortune.

Since it is going to take a while to complete all the tasks, Mark put aside the matter and returned his focus to the old man.

After receiving the instructions from the system, he proceeded to place the purification stone on the forehead of the old man where the seal is present and poured ether energy into it.

The purification stone turned into specks of light before disappearing into the seal.

The process only took 10 seconds for the seal to disappear. The king abruptly opened his eyes, almost instantly, feeling healthy all of a sudden.

*Ding! You completed the Quest. Unique skill-Seal Breaker has been added to the skill list.

”Where am I?” A loud voice escaped from his mouth as he sat on the bed. He looked around.

Mark was about to greet him but before that, the King’s eyes fell on him and he gasped in shock, taking the young man by surprise by uttering, ”Lan Gengxin?”

The King hurriedly shook his head, ”no, that’s not possible. Brother Gengxin was dead long ago. Am I in a dream? Or maybe, this is the afterlife?” He looked around once again and asked himself, ”but why does it look like I’m in some inn? A king sleeping in such a place? What kind of prison is this?”

Mark didn’t know that this king knows his maternal grandfather and was even close enough to address him as ’Brother’ but then again, if one thinks about it, the Lan Clan used to be located in Kunyu Mountains on some peak and Western Yan shares border with Western Moon kingdom. So, it is not a surprise if they know each other.

”Hello, Your Majesty.” He greeted the King and brought him to the reality, ”First, this isn’t a dream and second, I’m not Lan Gengxin. My name is Lu Zhen and I’m from the Imperial city of Phoenix Empire. Can you tell me what the last thing you remember?”

”Not Gengxin? And this is reality?” The King once again looked around and then at himself in linen clothes, which can be considered a worthless outfit in his eyes. But, at the moment, he doesn’t want to think about such unnecessary matters and focused on the young man who shared similar traits with an old acquaintance of his.

He focused on recalling his memories. All of a sudden, several memories hit him. He grabbed his head and a look of shock appeared on his face before it turned into anger, ”that’s right. That traitorous bastard Shen Qiu stabbed me in the back as I was retreating. Even my wife conspired together with him to poison me. And Supreme General Gong, how dare he lead a coup against me in the first place? I’ll kill every one of them…”

”Woah, wait for a second, Your Majesty.” Mark got some clarity on the matter and he right away reminded the King, ”This is the Year 1786 of ether era. It’s been a decade since the coup.”

”Eh?” The King was taken aback. ”I slept for a decade?”

Mark continued, ”I don’t know what happened a decade ago but I found you at Qincheng Prison with a seal over your body and consciousness. I had to use my precious treasure to bring you back as it is placed by some legendary realm expert.”

”The year 1786? Qincheng Prison?” The King, who came back to his senses, became dazed once again. It’s a little bit difficult for him to comprehend what Mark had told him just now.
