Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel

>>Memory Booster. (Lowest grade) 3 points<<

The Icon Chiron had seen was tagged as Memory. When he clicked on it in his mind, it opened up a variety of memory-associated specialties: Memory booster, Memory spell booster, Multi-task Memory Booster, Memory of Specific event booster, etc.

There were all types of memory boosters and their corresponding benefits. However, they also came with price tags. Many of them could not be unlocked until a certain level. They also could not be used unless one had Fate Change points.

Some of them were tagged with hundreds of Fate change points. But as it stands, Chiron barely had ten, and that was due to the fact that he almost lost his life.

Did that mean that he would only get points whenever his life was in danger?

he suddenly remembered when he first came to this world. At that time, he was rewarded points for changing Fate, but at that time, his life was not in danger.

This meant that his life did not need to be in danger every time before he got points. Just Changing the Fate of people around him could bag him points.

This realization brought a slight smile to his lips. But the problem still remained. If he wanted to bag in many points, he needed to change the Fate of a lot of people. Which in his current state, was next to impossible.

At the end of the day, it once a gain balled down to power.

Just like a politician could make one wrong decision and the lives of many are affected, or a good decision and hundreds of lives are saved, Only a powerful man can change Fate. At least, one needed to be powerful enough to tilt the hands of fate in one's favor.

Power! Power!! Power!!!

The word repeated itself like a record set on repeat in his head.

Chiron brought back his thoughts to the matter at hand.

At the moment, he needed to use the memory booster. However, this was not the reason he was saving up those points.

After all, with the effects he had on the future, having a backup plan was a very good idea.

His luck was still low and he knew that he might at any time need the boost. Now, Chiron was hesitant to use the points.

The thought of the danger that could potentially end his life just looming over his head hunted him.

Chiron suddenly remembered the words of one of his therapists from his former life; Always address the emotion before making a decision.

Then he stopped and thought hard about what he was feeling. What exactly was the most dominant of his emotions? To his surprise, it was FEAR!

Addressing this feeling, he discovered it was Fear. And this fear was because of the subconscious dependence he had on this system.

On the spot, a strong wave of anger washed through him. He immediately became angry at himself. Why should he Fear?

As great as it was to have a backup plan, what good was it if one could not use it when one needed it?

What use were gold and silver, if one could not use them when one needed them? What use were the points if they could not be used when needed?

By this time, the flames of the forge were already dying out, but as Chiron watched its low glow, he came to enlightenment and it brought a broad smile to his face.

"Whether it be silver, gold, or system. If I can't use it, then it can only be described in one word... USELESS."

Chiron shook his head at the thought of dependence.

Only earlier on, he had punished himself for dependence on his father. But right now, he realized that shackles came in all forms. People were just one of them.

Thinking this far, he felt energized. The only person that he could depend on, was himself. All others were simply tools. Just like any tool in history, if it was not useful, then it was only useless.

By now, it was already late into the night. Chiron already suspected his father won't care, but to put Nora's mind at ease, he sent Emma to tell her he would not be making it home for some time.

Without any more hesitation, Chiron clicked on the memory booster Icon.

>>Host, please confirm the transaction of points for Memory Booster<<

Chiron willed in his mind and the confirmation went through.

>>Congratulations Host, You have used 3 points<<

>>Congratulations Host, You have three minutes of Memory Booster<<

>>You have 7 points remaining<<

>>Please allocate points<<

The moment he got the series of Alerts, Chiron suddenly felt like his mind opened up. He suddenly felt refreshed. It was like he was a thirsty traveler in a desert looking for a drop of water but was given an Oasis.

His mind felt fresh and he immediately concentrated on the memory. It felt weird. He could suddenly remember seeing his employer at the time as he went about his work. But even more than that, the memory was so detailed that Chiron could even see the swirl in the cup of coffee in the hands of another employee.

It was like watching a movie but inside your head.

Chiron wanted to admire more but he suddenly remembered that he had a task to perform and he was also timing.

Three minutes was not a lot of time. he focused on the work he saw his employer do, immediately jotting down the steps he took.

Nearly as soon as it started, it was gone. However, Chiron had a smile on his face.

He had done it. He picked the piece of paper to his face, knowing that he had now figured out what he needed to do and the adjustments he needed to make.

There was no wasting time, he needed to start as soon as possible. The steps were many, and some of them, quite complicated.

However, the moment he stood on his feet, an intense Fatigue took over his body. He tried to steady himself but he found he was weak and he fell straight to the ground...
