The Harem King 9 Chapter 9

"Affirmative, host." the system replied promptly which proved my point correctly. Hahaha!

"How do I get shop points?" I asked the system.

"Shop points can be acquired by killing, host. Only those with souls can be registered as one kill." it replied immediately.

"How much people do I need to kill to get a thousand points?" I asked again.

"One kill equals to one shop point, host." The system answered.

"HAHAHA! Easy! Killing a thousand people was as effortless as blinking." I a.s.sumed and this a.s.sumption pleased me a lot.

But a sinking feeling in my stomach immediately surfaced after my conjecture branched off outside my simple way of thinking.

"Show me the techniques and their corresponding prices, Nomad." I instructed in haste.

"Affirmative, host."

1. Eternal Eyes - could see the past, present and future. 1,000,000 sp

2. Unbreakable Body - a physique that could outmatch the body of the G.o.ds in defensive capabilities. 1,000,000 sp

3. Heaven Divide - this ability could grant you clones that would embody yourself in both mind and ability. (numbers infinite) 1,000,000 sp

4. Elemental Dominion - all elements shall follow your will. 1,000,000 sp

5. Shattered Image - grants you the skill to copy any technique or natural ability that you see, touch and hear. (This is not limited to animate existences) 1,000,000 sp

..........

f.u.c.k!

1 million shop points! I knew that it was wishful thinking to have it all given with no struggle on my part.

"Can I hire mercenaries to reap points for me?" I continued asking.

"Negative, host. Only those you kill will be counted as shop points." Nomad informed me.

An Evil G.o.d indeed. HAHAHA! You would want me to slaughter and get b.l.o.o.d.y myself. PURE EVIL!

"Can I download some information into your program Nomad or is that not allowed?" I asked again.

"You can alter the system a.s.sistant as you wish, host." Nomad responded.

"Brilliant! Get ready for data transfer…

Processing information…

1%

2%

3%

99%

100% complete…

Information successfully sent..." a voice same as mine resounded in my head. I had hacked the entirety of the city's AI and its interface, thanks to the connection I had with this manless flying transport.

But hearing myself and talking to a copy of me was honestly quite boring. Thus, Nomad would be the right person to handle this tedious job.

HAHAHA! At least the monotones on my head would decrease even for a little bit. And besides, I also have some other nefarious quest in mind.

My speculation was right on. HAHAHA! 50 percent progress from a mere 1% earlier. SWEET!

Task 1 Identify the ident.i.ty of the Evil G.o.d… progress 1%...

Task 2 How to hack the system of the Evil G.o.d… progress 50%...

Task 3 How to get shop points in the fastest possible way with least effort on my part... 100%

Task 4 Hack the entirety of the human civilization's technology and its frontiers... progress 60%...

Task 5 Determine the building blocks of the universe and how to mirror such achievement...

The list went on and on with my every curiosity mapping everything I had ever wanted to know with this very useful skill...

Mind Split – can part.i.tion the user's mind to handle separate tasks while still retaining 100% calculating power and 100% a.n.a.lytical potency. (number of minds that can be divided, infinite)

"We have arrived, Sir!" the metal can disturbed my thoughts. The flying ship took me not unto the entrance below where only the ants love to mark their steps with.

Instead, I was delivered on the top of a lofty structure where the VIPs dwell and flourish.

The hands that tapped ever continually on a translucent representation of a keyboard I fashioned, with my new ability Physic Creation, stopped on moving.

Psychic Creation – could create any form from the user's imagination. (uses mental energy as base)

"Guess I'll have to continue this later. HAHAHA!" I thought fondly. During my happy workout earlier,

I had copied Mellisa's memory into my own with my Memory Absorption skill and the wealth of information she had acquired with only two decades of living in this world was prodigious.

Memory Absorption – has the ability to take any living thing's memory. (can copy or completely obliterate the target's memories)

Really worthy as one of the daughters of a giant figure within the city.

One of those precious gems of information she'd learned was her absurd expertise in handling computers and the current meta of our technological advancements.

She may be bright and all but in the end, Mellisa could not hold a candle to what my present intellectual abilities were at the moment.

Every book she'd ever read, I memorized and mastered than the one who penned it.

And every doubt that hindered her progress in the fields she studied was solved by me and my brain with but a breath's time.

And everything I learned shall never be forgotten. Thanks to the skill Perfect Memory.

Perfect Memory – grants the user absolute control of his memory and those he a.s.similates. (never forgets any knowledge acquired)

Now I am what I call a genius! The true embodiment of the word. HAHAHA!

"Welcome to the Xia Hypermart, Sir!" an automated voice greeted me. It belonged to a gorgeous woman composed of rubber and wires, as usual.

Since the advent of Androids and AI's became the new trend, it had replaced much of the working populace of humans.

These humourless alternatives were much efficient in work and would operate every second of the year with no absences caused by sickness or just plain laziness.

Who would not want that in their company? HAHAHA!

"What are you searching to buy, Sir? Let me serve as your guide. It would be my pleasure to do so." The nosy woman did as she was programmed.

But I did waste my breath on her. I have a map of the entire complex on my brain and who would want to speak to a soulless thing? Only morons do that.

"h.e.l.lo, dear customer. We have every cell phone products in the entire galaxy available in this store.

Please choose what you want and call for any a.s.sistance if you need to." The familiar boring sound reached my ears when I got to my destination.

"Get me 5 cell phones. I want the latest models and the most expensive ones." I gave my requirement.

"Thank you for patronizing our shop, Mr. Everhart. Please come again!" the same voice bade me goodbye after she lent me my golden card back together with a bag of my purchases.

"Excuse me, friend. I was wondering if you were the one who bought the limited edition Stask 3210 cell phones?" a big guy barred my path after three minutes of walking back.

He was together with his friends, four of them. And everyone seemed rich college students that got their mouths filled with rice in a golden spoon since birth.

"Yes. What about them?" I asked.

"You see I promised my girlfriend that I would buy her that brand on her birthday. Today's that day. I heard that you bought five of them.

Will you give us four of those? I'm sure my girlfriend would be ecstatic to have them.

Be a.s.sured though that I will mention your name to her so that she can say her thanks tonight for your wonderful donation.

So what's your name? HAHAHA!" the guy said in length and his eyes turned crimson. The atmosphere visibly rose several degrees higher as an illusion of misty smoke surrounded me.

They were clearly aiming for easy prey and had done this before many times. And their good luck has set their paths and mine to cross today. What lucky guys! HAHAHA!

"Death…" I whispered.

"What was that?" The big guy leaned closer together with the four people who caged me in the center.

"BLAZE!" an ethereal flame encircled our group and within a breath, only I remained standing in place.

"Congratulations, host. You have acquired 5 shop points!" I heard Nomad's genderless voice in my ears.

White residues were neatly sprinkled upon the spots where the five guys had just occupied.

No alarm had been sounded and even the motion and sound detectors of the establishment was deaf and blind to the incident.

"I am Death." I said once more in respect to the recently departed. HAHAHA!

I walked unimpeded as I retraced my steps back to whence I came.

"Where to, Sir?" a mechanical voice queried after I returned to my loyal ride.

"To the University of Abalet." I replied and looked forward to confronting the reason why I was jailed in the first place in the past.

"This will be fun." I muttered and a hideous smile appeared on my ugly face.
