Chapter 7 Soul Parasite Type- Training System

Upon reading the system screen, Keith was confused, but after summarizing his knowledge of system novels, he began to understand.

'So there are different types of systems? Those sentient ones that leech off their host and enjoy their suffering should be soul parasite type.'

As if asking for confirmation, Keith gazed at the system screen in front of him, waiting for the system's response.

[Yes, Keith.]

[There are three types of systems. The most common one is the soul parasite type. The majority of soul parasite-type systems are sentient except for a few rare cases. They leech off their host and act like a 'soul parasite' would do. There are also situations where soul parasite systems not only make their host suffer but also scheme against their host to take over their host's body, just like what a parasite would do.]

[The second type is the artifact type system. The majority of artifact-type systems are non-sentient and those that are sentient are those artifact-type systems that have an artifact spirit. Even if an artifact-type system is sentient, they are more loyal and considerate to its host, unlike what a soul parasite system would do. Their relationship with their host is like what a sword and swordsman's relationship would have.]

[The third type is the divine type system. It depends on the situation whether a divine type system is sentient or not. Or rather, it depends on the purpose or goal of the system. They are considered to be neutral and would only choose hosts that they deem as the "chosen one".]

[Remember that not all systems are created and under the jurisdiction of the Universal God Of Worldly Systems. It is inevitable for artificial systems to be created. A system is called artificial if it isn't created by Systema Kami.]

[Also, the type of system a system would be will have an impact on its origin even if it is of the same system.]

[For example, let's say there is a Time System that allows its host to wield the power of time. A time beast who died and had its soul escape from the cycle of reincarnation could become a soul parasite type Time System. A sentient artifact that has the time element could reincarnate itself into an artifact-type Time System. On the other hand, the fragment of time god could become a divine type Time System.]

[Although their origin might be different, their essence is still the same. There is also another type of system but it is a system that cannot be created by the System Creator System.]

The system lectured Keith about the three types of systems, as well as the difference between those three. Because of that, Keith became more knowledgeable about those types of systems.

But after reading about the system's previous message, Keith's interest was piqued.

'Oh? There is a system that cannot be created by the System Creator System?'

'Let me guess, it is the system that rebelled against Systema Kami or the laws of the multiverse.'

[!!!]

[How did you know?]

Listening to Keith's thoughts, the system was astonished by Keith's guess.

'Isn't it obvious? Aside from systems that couldn't be created by the System Creator System due to lack of power or energy, the most obvious answer is that.'

'Anyways, how do I create a soul parasite type system?'

After answering the system's question, Keith replied to the system with a question regarding system creation.

[Just use the SCP sub-system. Contrary to what you think, creating a system is very easy as long as you have the System Creator System.]

Hearing the system's reply, Keith summoned the SCP sub-system as another blue screen appeared in front of him.

[System Creator: Keith McDowell]

[Systems Created: None]

[Number of systems that can be created: 1]

[System Slot: N/A]

[Do you want to create a system?]

[Yes] | [No]

Tapping the [Yes] button, another blue screen appeared in front of him.

[Due to the other system types being unavailable, the system type is immediately set into soul parasite type by default.]

[Creator, please input the effect of the system you want to achieve.]

[System Input:___]

Seeing that the system input was blank, Keith typed and filled in the system input via his mind.

[System Input: A system that allows the host to become stronger by training such as performing 100 sit-ups, 100 push-ups, 100 squats, and a 10 km run. Rewards are in the form of an increase in attributes regarding the training performed as well as skills. Inventory is included in the system feature as well as Status but there aren't any system shops.]

-Ding!

[Creator has developed an unnamed system. What will the creator name the newly created system?]

'Training System.'

-Ding!

[Training System has been created!]

After the system prompt, a blue-colored worm appeared above Keith's right palm. The blue-colored worm was only visible to Keith's eyes so it didn't attract the attention of his classmates and adviser.

'So this is a soul parasite type system? It does look like a parasite.'

Keith marveled at the soul parasite-type system's appearance, his eyes gleaming with curiosity.

-Ding!

[First Task- Create a soul parasite type system. (Completed)]

[Second Task- Grant the system to any living being. (New)]
