Yes, If you fulfill all your tasks. And you will be given all the power that you need to make your wishes come true.
-Lopt (A Unknown God)
...…..
The last sentence that Lopt said rang itself inside Arvin's mind over and over again. Any other human, who would have heard a god saying that he would fulfill any wish that the human wants, then that human would happily bow his head in front of the god. That was the case with Arvin. He would also bow his head if that means his wish would be fulfilled. After all, he is only a human. But as Lopt said those words, Arvin faced a dilemma….
'What do I want? What are my desires? What do I yearn for?' Arvin asked himself over and over again but he was not able to find a suitable answer.
If Lopt was a God then him saying that he would fulfill any of his desire was like a golden opportunity for him. He wanted to use it for something that meant something to him. It was not like he didn't have any desires. He wanted to take revenge on people that have tormented him all of his life. He wanted to live a peaceful and happening life back on earth.
But as he came here, all that plans of revenge and all that negative energy didn't matter anymore. He got his body fixed. He was living in a good and beautiful place. He didn't desire money as he knew what money could do to a person. He didn't want to go back to the world and live in the concrete jungle. Then what did he desire? Was it strength?...
These philosophical questions made a home in Arvin's mind. And he started thinking about them all the time…
...….
After a brief conversation, Lopt left. Before leaving he said that not to mention anyone that Arvin was able to contact the god who gave him his powers. It was forbidden for gods to reveal themselves before their pawns before 50 floors or so what he said. Lopt also warned him that even if Dobby asked anything about it then too he shouldn't tell anyone about this.
Arvin was confused about what was up with this secrecy. And wasn't Dobby to read his mind. Wouldn't he find out about it eventually? Then he didn't lean on into it too much. After all, he had a bigger fish to fry….
That day old man Josh gave Arvin a tour of the village. It was a very small village with at most 100 people living in it. Because of that everyone knew who Josh was. So he introduces everybody that they met while touring the village. Arvin didn't care much about the villagers. But as soon as Josh told them that Arvin was HTC, everyone's attitude took a 180 degrees turn. They started becoming friendly to Arvin and even one of the old women of the village started talking about marrying her granddaughter to him.
Arvin didn't know what HTC was or how to become one. But from the looks of it, local people do give respect to the HTCs. He made a note that before anyone could find out that Arvin is not an HTC, he should get out of here. After all, he didn't want to raise attention. After that for the whole day, he helped Josh in cutting big logs of wood.
It turns out that wood was the basic source of energy around here. So when an earthling started appearing here, one earthling saw this as an opportunity. He opened a company that would supply wood from the Kalgan forest to all the villages and cities.
That idea gave birth to a noble house and the biggest merchant on the 1st floor. That earthling then gave all the powers related to the company to his loyal subordinate and went away to explore Yggdrasil. That subordinate's family became the 7th noble family. Their business also made them the wealthiest noble family on the 1st floor. And their noble family is referred to as The Cullens.
Cullen's wood company supplies steady big logs to different villages and cities and takes a hefty sum for it. But as wood is the only source of energy here, everyone wholeheartedly paid any price for it. After all, it was a better option than taking a risk and going to Kalgan forest. Josh and his partner would take big logs and would cut them into pieces so that ordinary people could use them easily. But now as Josh's partner is away, Arvin was the one that will fill in his place.
Arvin also got to know an interesting fact. Josh pitied him that is why he gave this job to Arvin. According to what he learned from conversations of the villager and Josh, he understood that the job of HTC was very dangerous as well as very lucrative. It paid a lot of money. But when Arvin showed in front of the gate smelling like that and with blood on his head, Josh made a presumption that something terrible happened to Arvin.
Josh assumed that Arvin faced something awful. That is why he showed pity to him. Because it was not uncommon for HTC to quit in between because they suffered something terrible that affected their mental state…
And when Josh offered a woodcutter job to Arvin he agreed to it straight away, this confirmed Josh's assumptions. That is why he was treating him so nicely.
...…
That day after Lopt left, Arvin tried contacting Dobby over and over again. After all, how could he forget, he had to integrate his system with his body. But no answer came back. As Dobby didn't answer back, he assumed the worst. That maybe Lopt's sudden barging in, could have made Dobby dormant or something. But 6 hours later, Dobby came back. At that time Arvin was working with Josh in godown, so he didn't start the integration process. But he figured that he would do it at night…
The night was upon the little village of Bonies. And in a small wooden house near the outskirts of the village, Arvin was lying on sheepskin, ready to integrate his system.
'Dobby, initiate the integration process.'

As soon as the timer hit zero, Arvin started feeling sudden pain throughout his body. It was like someone was poking needles throughout his body. But Arvin endured it. After all, it was nothing compared to the pain that was caused by that potion that he drank before. After a minute or two, the pain vanished. As the pain vanished, Arvin was left lying on his makeshift bed sweating as he had been in a sauna…
'Is it done Dobby?'
[Yes host. The host should say status to see the controlling panel of the system]
'Ok…. Status…' as soon as Arvin said status in his mind, a blue color panel opened in front of him…
.........…..
STATUS
Name- Arvin
Level-0 Exp-0
Champion of-?????
Inventory-(Tap to expand)
Quests-(Tap to expand)
Skills-None
.........…
As Arvin saw the blue panel that appeared before him, he was excited. He was excited that maybe he would have some superpowers or something like that…
'System… What powers will I gain from this system?'
[It depends on the host.]
'So do I have any superpower now?' Arvin asked excitedly.
[No.]
'...…'
[...]
'That is a bummer… Tell me more about this panel and its uses.'
[Sure host] the system displayed a green color panel on which all the uses of the system were written…
.........….
Level--> They denote the power or battle prowess that the host poses as compared to the strongest being of the floor. It is a calculated number that gives a rough idea of the battle prowess of their opponent.
Exp-->It is the short form for the experience. The more host trains the more Exp the host will get. It could also be earned as a reward from doing quests. Every completed quest will award some amount of exp.
Exp is used to increase the level of the host.
Champion--> These are titles given to apostles of gods. They are the pawn of gods. Gods will give these champions quests from time to time and fulfilling them will give the host some power and artifacts that the god himself/herself will give their champion via inventory.
Inventory--> It is a separate space that the host possesses. This space has infinite space. The host can store any non-living things and plants in the space. In that space, time stops working, so nothing will rot in the space. The host can call anything from the space at his will and whenever he wants
Quests--> These are the missions that God provides users of the system. There are two types of quests. One is forced one and the other one normal quest. Forced quests are quests that cannot be denied. While a normal quest can be denied by the host. Upon completion of these missions, the host will gain rewards that would be told before quests start. Similarly, if the host is not able to complete the said quest the penalty would also apply.
The severity of the penalty will depend upon the difficulty of the quest.
Skills--> These are special powers that the host will gain while traveling through Yggdrasil. Skills can also be granted by gods as quest rewards.
.......
Seeing the message board in front of him, Arvin got the gist of how to control the panel of his mischief system. Now all that is left for him to do is to start using it…
