Bastian frowned, eyes darting at the void space he was currently in. A moment ago, he's still fighting against the nightwalker and trying to save Martin, and yet, he was suddenly pulled inside this space.
Suddenly, a round glowing ball appeared before him. The ball is much larger compared to a soccer ball and it is emmiting a faint light that made the void space seemed to brighten.
[Host, this system is greatly disappointed with your actions.] A cold mechanical voice sounded from the ball.
Bastian was quite stunned.
"System?"
[As a guardian system, this system, is tasked to help the host elevate and help those which were robbed of their fates. However, the primary tasked of the system is to help and make the host stronger to carry the task implemented by the main system to the host. In short, this system, is responsible for your safety and growth as you traverse and complete your task until you succeed. ]
Bastian felt the system turned colder as it spoke with its mechanical tone, thus he pursed his lips, and remained silent, awaiting of what's to come.
[Your task in this world is originally a simple task of F rank, turned to C due to an error. But still this kind of task is commonly used for practice. Thus, dying here is a complete loss with no benefits for both the host and the system. You do not need to sacrifice yourself for the mission completion, it does not matter if the fated person lose a limb or two, but he host must always remain safe. This mission is not the mission we prioritized. You are simply here to train your body, soul and mind to its complete compatibility. The energy is not enough to completely support all the system's function. And this performance almost made you fail without even getting started.]
Hearing the cold and ruthless word, Bastian was at a loss.
How can he help a fated one if that said fated one lose their limbs? It will simply result to further depression and complete failure?
Besides, Martin is a person that he truly wants to help and protect, thus losing any body part of the man made his heart tremble.
Why the hell would he let Martin suffer if he can save him?
[Host. It seemed you do not understand. This world is a simulation of the worlds but at the same time, it is the truth and reality. The energy in various worlds generated by the fates and its world trajectory is greatly affected because of the unknown entity, currently eating at its cores. The entity eats the fate and world laws generated by the systems energy, thus the energies needed to maintain each every worlds functions,
is in peril. The main system sent many systems to stop the said entity that is eating away the energies. This system is one of those systems, sent as the first batch of 100. Hence, my number. As you can see, each world had its own axis and trajectory, however, since the energies is not enough, the stronger habitants like yourself starts to awaken, resulting in massive world failures. Although it is good to know that they were no longer like frogs in a well, it is not good to know so much. They start to break through their worlds and start causing havoc resulting in a massive destruction. This destruction is fatal. It will act as a virus helping the entity, then when the energies are finally depleted, the main system will then collapse and the worlds will lose its orbit and basically starts to disintegrate. Disintegration means the worlds death as well as the inhabitants! Do you understand? Although the target in this world is important, the mission completion does not solely rely on him. It relies on you! You dying here, meant you will be done for, and I will be forced to look for another host! Have you forgotten what you are? You yourself is a bug. You will be killed if you make things worst for the main system. Even though we have the power to survive, it doesn't mean we can live that long. Host, from the beginning, this systems mission is to cater to your growth needs. To make you stronger and be of helped to the Main system. You already said, sincerity is what you need to make this deal successful. But seeing you risk your life for a low level mission, this system cannot see your sincerity. Or is it that your sincerity just amount to this?
