Chapter 136 - 136: Eight Years Old (1/2)
Inside the workshop.
Theo, who was sitting on the bed, saw little Yui enter the room, and right after, Shina, Zaira and Zaika came in as well. He heard them talking, so he knew they came to cultivate.
They exchanged a few words before sitting in the Lotus position and began performing the technique:
.
Seeing this, Theo began to think, ”Alright, now… I need to spend 1,000 to ask a question… well, although it costs that, depending on what I want to know, this can be cheap, I think.”
[”System, why can't I remember exactly what happened to me yesterday?”] Theo said in his mind.
[1,000 System Points were deducted]
[System: Demi-Human Mauro Kenedy was erased from existence, and all those who had memories of him had those memories erased.]
[System: Host Memories with Demi-Human Mauro Kenedy can be restored, requires: 1,000,000 System Points]
Seeing and reading the information that appeared in front of him, Theo was surprised by it. ”It was as I thought, this Mauro Kenedy must have been with me yesterday, but then how could he get erased from existence? Grr… I'll have to pay 1 million Points… well, I'd be very uneasy until I knew everything that had happened.”
Even though he thought the cost was high, Theo decided to pay to recover his lost memories.
[1,000,000 System Points were deducted]
Shortly after that, Theo began to 'remember' everything that had happened yesterday.
”This… this Mauro Kenedy went where? The moment he teleported, did he offend something powerful and die?” Though he thought it was too short a time for him to offend anyone, Theo thought it was possible. Many beings kill for far less, and Theo could not possibly know the temperament of an entity capable of that power. Nor does he know where the Dimensional Room actually exists.
[”System, how did Mauro Kenedy get erased?”]
[1,000 System Points was discounted]
[System: The moment Mauro Kenedy used the teleport talisman, he ended up in dimensional space. The moment he moved about, Mauro Kenedy bumped into a 'being' and managed to wake it up. He was killed at the very moment this 'being' opened its eyes. - More accurate information about this being will require 1 billion System Points]
As Theo read the semi-transparent screen, he became stunned at the price it stated. ”My God, 1 Billion Points… how long would it take to get that amount… and that's just to know about the 'being' that erased Mauro Kenedy from existence…”
”Huh… what about paying 1 Billion Points for more information? Forget that~ even if I had it, I still wouldn't want to spend it on questions.” Theo said in his heart.
”Anyway, I still need to think about it more before I ask any further questions of the System, even why I have to spend 1,000 System Points.” Theo thought, ”If I go on just asking random questions, I will run out of Points very quickly, even though I know that information is important. Well, if I have something I can't discover on the internet, I can still choose to search the System.”
Shortly after that, Theo, who was already sitting on the floor in the lotus position, began to practice
and began to meditate.
Some hours later.
