Scion of Time Gaming System!

Chapter 22: Inquisitor Dagger

"System, can you tell some things?" Marvin asked it after breathing for a while.

[What does the host want to know?] the system replied.

"What's your name or are you just system? Also, why do I have healing type abilities when I only have time and space attribute?" Marvin said to the system

[The System has no name but the host can give one to me. As for your second question, the host is a gamer and can use all kinds of attributes as long as he completes quests related to them. Moreover, the system wishes that the host will check the reward which had already been provided to you and stored in the inventory. The system is certain that the host will be pleased with the inquisitor dagger after you inspect it] 

The gaming system gave an unexpected reply.

Marvin smiled in return. "From now on you are Noah. Is it fine with you?"

Noah was the name of his father. He had received this system because of the amulet that Noah gave him. Marvin was certain that it was the amulet that has given him the system and space and time attribute. He named the system as Noah in the memories of his long-dead father.

[Yes! The host can call me Noah from now on] The system replied in its monotone voice but Marvin could discern that it was happy.

"Open inventory!" Marvin commanded the system.

A semi-transparent screen appeared in front of his face as soon as the words left his mouth. It was similar to the inventory of any game. The inventory looked just like bag slots in an RPG game or the equipment slot box of the famous game "league of legends".

He could see around 100 boxes on the inventory screen. However, that wasn't the limit. At the end of the screen, he saw page numbers 2, 3, 4, and 5. The pages beyond that were locked and required system credits. Each page had 100 empty slots. Moreover, the inventory could also be upgraded but it required system credits.

The first box of the first page stored the inquisitor dagger in it.

"Noah, How can I take the dagger out of this screen, and what's system credit?" Marvin asked after observing and checking out the inventory which looked strikingly similar to the inventory of other games but there was no store, use, or equip button.

[The Gamer only needs to tap an item on the box and it will materialize in the physical world. This is the only way to take the item out of the inventory unless you upgrade it. Similarly, the gamer only needs to touch the inventory screen with an item he wants to store and it will be stored in the inventory. As for the host's second question, system credit is a currency that the gamer will be able to use to upgrade the system or purchase different items from the system store. Credits can be obtained by killing or face slapping others]

Marvin's eyes blinked in thoughts as he summarized different ways of face slapping.

"Noah, does beating someone like a dog counts for face slapping and how do I access the System store?" He asked the system expecting a reply soon.

[Winning a fight and defeating others in battle counts as face slapping. The host can not access the system store as it is currently locked. The gamer needs to reach level 10 to unlock it!]

[Quest activated: Unlock System Store

Description: The system store contains a lot of items, books, pills, and elixirs, etc. You are bound to fall in love with them!

Condition to complete: Reach level 10

Quest Rewards: Unlock system store]

'Hmm, I leveled up twice in the past few days. It will probably take a week or two to reach level ten and unlock the system store until then, I should try to gain as many credits as U can!'

Marvin grew excited just at the thought of beating the pricks, tomorrow and gaining system credits at the same time. It seems like a win-win situation as long as I come out on top.'

While thinking that, he double-tapped on the first box and a dagger started to materialize in the air. At first, it was in a pixelated shape, but in three seconds, a black, shiny dagger floated in front of him.

The dagger was of perfect shape. It was not too big nor was it too small; However, from its lustrous edges, Marvin could discern that it was really sharp.

Marvin used inspect on the dagger to find out what makes it so special that even the system believed he would be surprised by it.

[Inquisitor Dagger

Stats: +5 Strength, +6 Speed

Runic Effect 1: Defense Break: The Gamer can bypass his enemy's magical or physical defenses and deal direct damage to them no matter how strong they are, how durable their armor is, or the number of magic power shields they are using. Once the runic effect is activated, the dagger absorbs one magic power every minute from the user.

Runic Effect 2: ????

...

...

Runic Effect 5: ???

...

..

Kill 100 living beings to unlock the second runic effect]

'Wow, I can feel a lot stronger just by holding it.' His gaze landed on the runic effect and his mouth opened wide in surprise. 'What the hell! Doesn't that mean that I have become the nemesis of defense type ability users! Hahaha, I can also start hunting magical beasts that are known for their good defense all alone with this dagger!"

He grew excited just at the thought of it. Noah was really a good judge of character as Marvin was surprised by this godly dagger.

Marvin touched the inventory screen with the dagger and it was stored inside of it. For the next few minutes, he stored certain important stuff in the inventory and then laid down on the bed to sleep.
