Chapter 68 Missions And Enigma's Anger



Moments later, when peace finally returned.

Enigma sat within a room by himself. The confusion on his face was apparent, as his dazed eyes stared straight at the empty screen projected before him.

[Innate Adaptation - ????]

Yes, this was his supposed physique, and even the system failed to properly discern what it was like. But according to it, it seemed to be able to change his body to adapt to any of his circumstances.

For example, what happened not long ago, when he was asked if he wanted to adapt into a Nether Elf. Of course, his body would not change at all, but he would have all the racial traits of Nether Elves, their tastes, likes and and their weaknesses.

Most of the time, those things come as skills. Especially if your race is of a higher grade. Nether Elves being god-like, then there was a chance of him gaining a unique skill.

And the other Nether Elves would also see him as one of their own. In other words, his body would\'ve adapted to being a Nether Elf inside-out. But of course, he would still have his original traits as a true being.

"That\'s right. And it, of course,  does not come for free"

The system interjected as usual, and thought that he had forgotten the last part, considering that he had not yet mentioned it.

"You said that already." Enigma frowned and ignored the system. He was still skeptical what his goal was and what the system was or what its goal was.

But by now, he had given up finding out why. Because there are a lot of secrets sorouding his entire existence. His past, Kaguya and the other two, his parents, his lost memories, his strange disorder, his bloodline, his physique and many more.

To have a better chance of finding out anything was through his older sister. And to find her, he needed strength. So perhaps attaining strength was his goal for now?

"...."

Or was it just a bonus for his true goal? Either way, getting strong was still what counts the most, even if it meant using the strange things happening to him now.

"Just to remind you, Adaptation to "Nether Elf" will cost you 18 units of faith power. Just so you know, I\'m not conning you this time around"

"That\'s why it\'s so cheap, right?" Enigma smiled and asked rhetorically in sarcasm. He could not afford such a sky high price as of now. He had less than 4 units, let alone a whole 18.

But while he was grumbling to himself, a sudden thought befell him as he looked at the system. He smiled lightly and asked, "What about my 30% discount?"

"...."

The system kept quiet as it had also forgotten about this. If it had remembered, it would\'ve increased the price initially to 20 units, so that it could benefit off of him in this deal.

But now, there was no medicine for regrets.

"...That totals to 13 units please."

"Still expansive huh?" Enigma sighed and stood up. He was about to meet the Nether Queen, but truthfully, he wished she would just give him a map and let him go. But that was probably impossible.

"I have a suggestion for you, if you wish to have a lot of faith points"

The system suddenly spoke all of a sudden, well it did so everytime it had an opinion. This system had an ego after all. Or, maybe the very concept of systems was to have egos?

Was it the only system? Was it some sort of special entity, or Supreme rule? Enigma knew nothing about it. Or maybe they were many of its kind everywhere?

Maybe a race of unique parasites?

Anyway, Enigma would not turn down such a special offer, so he readily agreed without any hesitation on his side.

"I\'m all ears."

"As a system, my job so far has been to try and limit you"

"...."

Externally, Enigma was speechless as he stared at the floating screen of light. But internally, despite knowing that system can hear his thoughts, he cursed at the system and its ancestors.

\'It\'s not a parasite, it\'s a bacteria. It and all of its ancestors.\' He thought, while listening to the system\'s other words.

"We have the same ancestors... Anyway, If I truly wish for balance, I must also try to rise you up. Which I will not do"

"...."

Energy was confident to his "System Bullshit Resistance" that he has developed ever since he met it. Which was why he was not surprised even the least bit.

But its words, it\'s Initial words were a bit thought triggering. That statement contained boundless amount of information. Unfortunately... he knew the system would not explain itself.

"But... I can help you get more faith points though"

"...How?" Enigma was not going to believe that bullshit, experience had told him that the system\'s last name was "Nerfer". And this was probably the beginning, so, why would it have a change of mind.

"Doing missions"

"There\'s still four more years before the mission board will be opened for us though?"

"I have my own ways of doing things"

"Fine then, let\'s see what you have." The way he fluently responded would make one doubt whether he believed it or not. But truthfully, he was 200% full of doubt.

"TING!!!"

"1. Save The Nether Elves from an upcoming disaster not far from now. Rewards: Nether Elve\'s Belief, 5 units of faith, +10% increase in believers slots"

"2. Assassinate the Nether Elven Queen and leave. Rewards: Nature Pantheon\'s Wrath, 10 unit\'s of faith, +15% increase in believers slots"

"3. Do neither of the above. Reward: Nothing"

"Note: You can only choose one. The next missions will not appear until the chosen mission is completed"

"Note: You better stop slandering me in your thoughts too~ I wouldn\'t be nerfing you so much if you weren\'t a freak in the first place"

"...."

Looking at all of these, Enigma began to doubt himself. This was... How come... What the... It doesn\'t make sense... \'Why the sudden change of mind?\' He asked.

"I believe the only problem with you being your bloodline, physique or anything to do with your body. Faith and belief have nothing to do with any of the two"

"...You won\'t go against those words anytime soon right?" Enigma began believing, or rather, wanted to believe in what the system was saying for once.

"...Yes"

"So, when is this unknown danger going to occur?" That\'s right, he chose the first option. The answer was simple, gaining their belief was better than gaining the ire of the Nature Pantheon.

Even though the second option had higher rewards, it also had higher drawbacks as well. While the first option had a long term reward behind the current one.

"Don\'t worry, I\'ll think of one"

"Wait, hold up, let me process something here. So, you did not peak into the future to look at the Fates of the Nether Elves, but will cause a natural disaster by yourself?" Enigma held his head in exhaustion as he tried to process what the system said.

Because, peaking into the future and changing future events was considered normal for a god or a Time Deity. But then again, bringing about a disaster for a god, while just being a set of data formed within someone\'s mind, was unheard of.

"Of course"

And the fact that the system saw nothing wrong with that, was even more broken. Enigma just realised that perhaps the system was his only nemesis here.

"...What kind of disaster are we speaking of here? Cyclones? Thunder storms? Earthquakes?" He didn\'t want to ask, but it was not like the answer was going to come if he did not. So he went on and asked.

"I\'m thinking of bringing a Deity King to cause a bit of trouble for you"

"...You sick bastard, how the f*ck are you even going to do that. Manipulate the plot of Existence itself? Bend Reality to your will?" This was a part of him that only the system could bring out, his fiery side, which was contradictory to his humble side he usually shows others.

Perhaps, no, for now, only the system had it in it to bring about such a side of his. Though it was fiery, it was not to the point of being unreasonable or wrathful.

"I am Immeasurable, both in body and consciousness. My consciousness alone can affect any and all things, be it existing or not"

"Unfortunately, you made me to do everything in my power to make sure that you never reach the realm of your past lives. Anyway, unimportant things aside—"

"Pause!! Unimportant things my *ss!!" Enigma smashed the table besides him and shouted at the system in discontent. That was groundbreaking info, and it thought that it was unimportant.

What was important then? Life? Bullsh*t!!

"...Don\'t bother talking about it, if you really want to know, then try your hardest to get strong despite my influence and find your sister. Otherwise just give up"
