Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

As Corey looked at his status window, well to be specific, the system remark, he could not help but wonder if he was seeing things or he had finally run crazy.

He re-read the system remark once again to make sure he was seeing right.

"Why does the system like abusing me and making fun of me?

Is it because I call it a useless Universal System every time?

In fact, why the hell does the system feel sentient?

Am I in trouble?"

Corey thought with slight fear as he looked at the system remark.

"Do I need to ask for forgiveness from the system?"

"…"

"Nope, I'm never gon ask the useless system to forgive me. It's still useless."

Deciding to be stubborn, Corey ignored the snarky comments of the system remark and observed his stats.

His strength, agility and constitution had crossed the 300 mark which was some sort of limit for normal humans according to what the useless Universal System was saying.

He didn't know what benefits were there in breaking past the limit but he felt that it would definitely be beneficial to him.

Another thing he noticed was that his intelligence stat was stuck on the 500 mark which was the highest stat a normal human could achieve.

His endurance and mana were exactly on the 300 mark, not breaking past the limit.

As for his dexterity?

"… It is what it is." Corey shrugged.

Right now he had a goal, he wanted to make all his stats reach 500.

Although he would not be able to reach tier 1 even after his stats reached the maximum, he believed that his chances of survival against the tier 2 creature at the academy gates would increase if he maximized his stats.

Corey looked at his status window once again and he noticed another thing that was different.

His pain resistance had increased by one level. It was no longer level 3 but level 4 which was not surprising to Corey considering how much pain and suffering he had gone through.

After making sure there was nothing else that changed, Corey looked at the skill crystals and items on the floor.

He decided to start with the skill crystals first.

He picked up the skill crystal which came from the monster with six eyes with his right hand then a translucent screen popped up from his right hand.

He looked at it with curiosity.

[MENTAL MANIPULATION RESISTANCE SKILL CRYSTAL DETECTED

ABSORB?

YES OR NO?] (A/N: I decided to put the names of the skills in the crystals since I realized it wouldn't make sense if I didn't.)

Corey's eyes lit up when he saw the name of the skill in the skill crystal and without hesitation, he absorbed it.

The skill crystal turned to dust and Corey felt something different flow into his body then it reached his brain.

A few seconds later, the sensation ended and Corey pulled up his status window.

He checked the resistance section.

*RESISTANCES*

Fear Resistance- Lv 1

Pain Resistance- Lv 4

Mental Manipulation Resistance- Lv 1

He tapped on the new addition to the resistance section causing the screen to change.

[MENTAL MANIPULATION RESISTANCE (LV 1): Grants the holder the ability to resist mental attacks that are from tier 1 creatures and below.]

"Well that was self explanatory."

Corey muttered then looked at the second skill crystal which was from the giant monster he killed by impaling Smile Reaper 2.0 inside his asshole.

He picked it up then a translucent screen popped up.

[BRONZE BONES SKILL CRYSTAL DETECTED

ABSORB?

YES OR NO?]

"Absorb."

Corey gave the command and the crystal was absorbed into his body.

Corey not expecting anything different waited for the entire procedure to be over but when the skill crystal was getting absorbed into his body, his face changed and he cursed.

"Son of a-"

"Hmmmm."

A groan escaped from Corey's lips as he felt so much pain that if not for his high pain resistance, he would be screaming and shouting in agony at this moment.

Corey clawed at the ground as he felt his bones change. It was like molten magma was been poured directly unto his bones.

Steam rose out of his body and sweat and blood poured out of his body also. Corey clenched his teeth tightly, not making a single sound as he waited for the entire process to be over.

A minute later, Corey released a breath of relief as the pain and the procedure was over.

He sprawled on the floor which was covered in his sweat and blood but he didn't care, he was mentally exhausted. Not releasing a single sound of pain during the procedure was not easy.

"This is why I said the system was useless."

Corey muttered softly and closed his eyes for a few seconds before opening them.

He sighed once again then he decided to get up.

He pressed his hand on the floor but just as he did,

Crack

"Huh?"

Corey looked at where his hand was and he could see a small crack on the floor.

"What the hell."

Corey cursed and he stood causing more cracks to form on the ground.

"This is why I said the Universal System is useless.

Why couldn't it warn me that the skill would make me heavier."

Corey gritted his teeth in frustration before he sighed and sat down on the floor once again.

"I guess now I know that some skills can cause the body to change by a lot."

Corey rubbed the middle of his eyebrows then he decided to just move on.

What was done was done.

He would be careful with the skills he chose next time.

"Let me see…"

Corey decided to check for the description of the skill and the moment he did, he wanted to curse once again. No he cursed once again.

[BRONZE BONES (Lv 1): A passive skill that turns the user's skin to bronze. It grants additional strength, additional defense, additional weight and also reduces the agility and dexterity of the user.

Effects: +10 Strength, +10 Constitution, -20 Agility and -10 Dexterity.]

"Son of a bitch."

Corey cursed then opened his attributes panel, he quickly added the lost 20 agility and 10 dexterity back to his stats and after doing that, he calmed down.

"Thank God I decided to check my status window."

Corey said then looked at the last set of loot from the five monsters.

There were three items.

The camera which was owned by the camera monster.

A ring which came from the treelike monster.

And a ring which came from Cakie.

Since he already knew what the camera could do, he took the ring that came from Cakie and waited for the useless Universal System to do it's thing.

[ORANGE GRADE ITEM, RING OF MIMICRY (REPLICA) DETECTED?

DO YOU WANT TO OBTAIN OWNERSHIP?

YES OR NO?]

As Corey looked at the name of the ring, a strange thought appeared in his mind.

'Will the ring turn me to a cake?'

Corey looked at the ring then he looked at Cakie, or at least what was left of Cakie.

"Surely the Universal System isn't that petty right?"

Corey muttered then prayed to the Goddess of Luck to not let him turn to a cake.

"Oh beautiful and sexy Goddess of Luck

Please o please grant me luck and don't let this ring turn me into a cake

You are the greatest, most beautiful, sexiest and fairest goddess of them all

Please grant me luck.

Látom."

Corey released a breath after praying then he twisted his neck slightly, causing a crack to sound.

"Here goes nothing.

If the ring turns me into a cake, the Universal System is officially my number 1 enemy."

"I want to obtain ownership."

After Corey spoke, the ring glowed orange for a second before it receded and Corey felt a connection between him and the ring.

He opened his status window and checked for the description of the ring while praying to the Goddess of Luck.

[RING OF MIMICRY (REPLICA): A failed product formed after the blacksmith ***** tried to replicate the mythical Ring of Mimicry.

Grants the holder the ability to mimic most inanimate objects for fifteen minutes once every 24 hours.]

"What the hell?

Isn't this ring too useful and cool?"

Corey's mouth was wide open when he saw the ability of the ring.

The system called it a failed product but the ring was still very cool and useful in Corey's eyes.

He could use it to enter the ladies bathroom and act as a dustbin, toilet or something, then he would…

"Cough Cough.

No dirty thoughts Corey. No dirty thoughts.

I am not a pervert. I am just a young man who just wants to get rid of his virginity.

I am not a pervert. I am a pure soul with not a single dirty thought.

Girls? Women?

What are they?

Are they eatable?"

Corey paused then with a strange expression he remembered something.

"I just remembered there's a part of girls that loves to be eaten."

Sigh

"My life is sad."

Corey muttered depressingly as he looked at his boner with a depressed look.

Pa

"Alright Corey, back to business. Focus."

Slapping himself, Corey tried to rid himself of every dirty thought.

He was a pure soul and a pure soul had zero dirty thoughts.

Well, he just wanted his boner to go down that was it.

Anyway, moving away from Corey's sad and lonely sexual life.

Corey took the second ring that came from the treelike monster.

A pop up window appeared on top of his right hand and he read it.

[ORANGE GRADE ITEM, CURSED DRYAD'S RING DETECTED

DO YOU WANT TO OBTAIN OWNERSHIP?

YES OR NO?]

"…"

"Okay that name sounds ominous."

Corey looked at the dark green ring in his hands and was conflicted on whether he should obtain ownership of the ring.

He was mainly worried that the ring could cause harm to him but after thinking about how he needed all the power he could get, he decided to obtain ownership of the ring.

He needed power and the ring could grant him power. The ring was also an orange grade item and the only other orange grade item he had was the Ring of Mimicry.

"Obtain ownership."

An orange color flashed on the ring for a second before it disappeared completely.

Corey felt a connection to the ring and he opened his status window, wanting to see the description of the ring.

[CURSED DRYAD'S RING: The beloved ring of a lesser dryad which became cursed after the lesser dryad became corrupted by dark forces. The ring has the ability to produce magical tree roots and branches which can absorb the life force of any being below tier 1, transferring a percentage of the life force to the holder.

Side Effect: The holder would be attacked mentally at any time, even when they are asleep.]

"Well, it's not as bad as I thought."

Corey spoke as he looked at the description of the cursed dryad's ring. He didn't know how powerful the mental attacks would be but he was not too worried since he had gotten Mental Manipulation Resistance.

Corey looked at the last item, the camera.

He picked it up but decided to check it out later, right now he wanted to leave this room and get a good night's sleep. (A/N: Cough, cough. Was referring to myself there. I'm not lazy, not lazy at all.)

He put the two rings on his fingers, then he put the camera inside his inventory.

He looked around, making sure he didn't miss anything. After finding nothing, he walked out of the room.

His next destination?

To find a room to sleep.

After that?

To challenge another room.
