Chapter 40- Women Are Scary!

Rin blinked a few times as he tried to comprehend what she said as he didn\'t quite get it at the first time. Or to be more precise, his mind didn\'t register what she said from surprise.

"I said that the protagonist of this world came to purpose to me for marriage and I turned him down. He said that he loved me and I refused."

\'System, what are the chances that you can revive me if I get a heart attack in the future?\'

[Depends on your attitude with me, host. I might consider it if you cherish me.]

\'Means it\'s zero, ok… got it.\' He ended the stupid exchange with a sigh and looked at Elise.

He really didn\'t know what to say so he tried to ask for more information to understand the situation even further and to also be able to see whether it was a disaster or not.

"Is it…canon?" He asked.

"Canon?"

\'I forgot she doesn\'t get these terms.\'

"I mean… is you refusing his proposal related to the original story?"

"As much as I remember… The princess did refuse him at first just like I did. But, I don\'t think she was as \'stern\' as I was with it."

"By \'stern\' you mean…"

"I closed any possible chances for that to happen."

"I see…. Hmm, not the best start to this world to be honest." He rubbed his chin thoughtfully.

"You mean that I should\'ve accepted him?" Her eyes turned slightly colder than usual. She wasn\'t angry at Rin but at what she assumed he meant with his words. However, he quickly denied that and explained.

"It\'s not that. I was just talking about the fact that our relationship with the main characters will be quite \'hostile\' and potentially problematic in the future and I was trying to find a way to create a plan around it. It was actually good that you refused him, we don\'t have to follow the plot all the time and we can have our own free choices."

"Well, I never intended to be faithful to the game\'s story. If we follow it exactly as it is, we will only end up being left behind or even dead. Especially me since I seem to be a villain character at the start of the story."

"Wait, you are an enemy to the protagonist?"

"Yeah, the princess was at first an enemy but that changed after that."

\'I really need to comprehend the story of this world. It\'s just getting messier and messier the more we kept going.\'

"Being an enemy with the main character is going to be a tough challenge. He is a very strong character. But, we have our systems and our skills that we can use to our advantage…"

The main protagonist of each world was obviously very special and also incredibly overpowered. It was the type of overpowered that scales incredibly great as the game goes on and ends up being a monster through and through at some point.

But, the fact that none were able to finish a single world, they don\'t know the extent of their powers and so Rin and Elise can\'t simply base their plans on things they didn\'t quite comprehend.

"Sigh, for now. I think we should just train until the new year starts and then go to the academy. We have to find ways to gain strength and the best place is the academy. We can leave if we need to at some point in the future." Rin suggested.

"That\'s what I thought. I actually don\'t have any idea where dungeons are or any other major useful information apart from the general ideas around this world."

*Bang*

Suddenly, as they were speaking, the door was opened and two people fell down on the ground. Rin was surprised as he looked at his mother and sister as they stood up awkwardly with a small laugh. Beside them stood Damian with his hand on the door handle as he sighed.

"Why did you do that, honey?" Selina reprimanded him with a cute pout.

"Yes, father. It was uncalled for." Aria added as she took her mother\'s side.

"You two… stop spying on them. You aren\'t small kids."

Quickly catching on to what was happening, Rin tapped his forehead with a long sigh before looking at Elise apologetically.

The latter merely nodded understandingly and didn\'t take any offense to it. Then, she stood up and said.

"We can continue our talk another time, Rin. You can rest now. I will excuse myself now."

Her elegant behavior made them freeze for a moment until she left the room.

\'She somehow became even more beautiful than before. I can\'t comprehend how that is even possible.\'

[Perfection doesn\'t exist, host. There is always a better thing in the world.]

\'I hardly can believe that I can meet someone as beautiful as her.\'

*Tap*

"Ah! What was that?" Rin scratched his head as he looked at Aria with a weird expression.

For some reason, she tapped him on his head with an angry pout. Her eyes were slightly teary and her cheeks were red. Rin didn\'t get what she was getting angry about.

"Stupid…" She muttered and then walked out of the room.

"Huh?" He tilted his head in confusion and looked at his mother for an explanation.

"She\'s worried about you, Rin. Aria made sure she sat beside you the whole day while you were unconscious. I even found her crying alone from sheer worry." Selina explained.

Hearing that, Rin\'s heart felt warm and fuzzy and happiness bubbled in his chest. He really appreciated how much cared about him and how much she cherished him as her brother.

But, the fact that she hit him on the head was still unanswered. Maybe she was so worried that she thought he didn\'t care about his health so she became angry at him for being that negligent. Women are scary.

\'I don\'t even think my sister cared that much for me back on earth. Ah, I really miss her, man.\' He clicked his tongue with nostalgia before shaking those thoughts away for now. He can reminisce later.

"You should rest now, sweety. You can call for me or the maids if you need anything, ok?" Selina said with a small smile as she kissed his forehead.

"Fine, thanks."

After that, they left the room and for the first time since he woke up, he can finally have some time for himself. He made a note in his head to talk with Aria later and make sure she wasn\'t angry with him.

"But, for now… Let\'s train!!"

Getting rid of his shirt, he went and started doing his daily quests. It seemed that even though he didn\'t do them yesterday, the system didn\'t punish him as it merely was out of his capability to do them when he was stuck fighting for his life.

"I want to amass as many points as possible before the start of the school year. Ah, right! I want to check my stats and skills."

[Agility: F-]

[Dexterity: G+]

[Intelligence: G+]

[Charm: A-]

[Magic: C-]

**SKILLS**

*[Shadow Manipulation]

[Rank: ???]

[Level: 2]

[You are the ruler of the shadows and the sole successor of darkness. The night is your domain and the light is your ally. Where bright light exists, dark shadows are present.

*(First Phase: Shadow Bringer) You can control your shadow and the shadow of your enemy to some extent. It depends on your mana, strength, and dexterity.]

*[Appraisal]

[Rank: E-Rank]

[Level: 2]

[Nothing can hide from your eyes. None could try to stop you from seeing the truth no matter what. It\'s you who decides whether secrets stay secrets or not.

*This skill allows the host to appraise items, skills, and living creatures. The higher the difference between the host and the target, the less information will be available. It depends on your intelligence.]

*[Berserk]

[Rank: G-Rank]

[Level: 2]

[Anger is a double-edged weapon. It can be the downfall of a human into craziness or the reason for his rise to the peak. The Berserker is a warrior who dances on that thread of insanity and omnipotence for the sake of beating his opponent.

*Activating this skill will increase all the hosts\' stats by 1 rank-up. But, in return, the host will lose 40% of his sanity and drown in anger. The skill can stay activated as long as the host has mana.]

"I got 4600 action points?! Damn, I\'m filthy rich!" Rin beamed with happiness as he saw the sheer amount of points he got. He can easily make all of his stats at least rank once except for charm and magic which made him really excited.

However, he slapped himself and calmed down, he can\'t use them now. He wanted to keep them until he had more action points and then he can use them all to gain a huge boost. The thought of all of that suffering giving him these results made him forget all the pain.

[I fear for your sanity, host. You might turn into an Action Points addict.]

\'Being addicted to that doesn\'t seem to be that bad. I will turn this into my own drug!\'

[Degenarate.] The system whispered.

\'Hey! What did you say?!\'

[Nothing, host. You are imagining things.]

(A//N: He might turn into a crazy Action Points farmer. That sounds like a cool idea :) jk lol. Btw, would you like to get a stat update like that from chapter to chapter or should I just show the stats that ranked up at the time without showing the full thing or the progress so far?)
