Making a harem after transmigrating

Chapter 111: The system



"What is a domain? Is it something like \'Domain expansion: infinite void\'?"

Anna\'s eyes lit up; she imagined herself standing in front of her enemy and telling him, \'You are weak\'.

She felt her body heating up and quivering with excitement.

"Don\'t watch too much anime," Evan said sternly.

Anna pouted and sulked a bit and said, "They are good... even Mother watches sometimes."

Mizuki became flustered when Anna revealed she watches anime and tried to hide her face away from Evan.

Evan simply smiled at her and began to explain further.

"It\'s something like that, but you will only awaken a domain after reaching a certain realm, which is very far away for you all right now."

[Umm, host?]

And just when he was explaining when they could activate their domain, the system called out to him.

\'What is it?\'

[There needs to be a slight correction in that info you got. The knowledge you possess is something that has been obtained after people of the current time researched for a very long time, and they aren\'t wrong to think that a domain is only awakened when they reach a certain realm.]

[But it\'s not entirely true; the domain can be awakened before reaching that realm if you have a clear understanding of your nature. So, the knowledge of cultivation you got isn\'t wrong, but needs a slight correction.]

[I sold you that knowledge, and I apologize for that because I thought you were the same as them all as that knowledge applies to people of the current era, not to primordials.]

\'Are you saying that I am primordial?!\'

[No. Before I thought like that, but not now. You aren\'t primordial but someone #@#$$.]

Then suddenly the system seems to blurt out some gibberish that Evan couldn\'t understand.

Not understanding a single word, Evan asked it,

\'What are you saying?\'

But no reply came from the systems side. Evan felt something was wrong and called out to it a few times, but nothing changed.

***

Inside the system space.

[The familiar is talking too much. You do not have the authority to tell him the truth about those beings.]

Standing in front of the system screen was a woman, whose body was hidden with brilliant light. She, in her melodious and sweet voice, replied to the robotic voice.

"I am not telling him anything about them."

Answering her the robotic voice spoke again,

[Do you take the system for a fool? If you reveal anything about them to him when he hasn\'t reached that state yet, you will face consequences. Don\'t think just because you are one of them means you can\'t be killed; I am someone who was made to fix the broken pieces, and I have the authority to even kill you.]

[And don\'t even think about fighting against me, you will be thoroughly defeated. Your strength won\'t work on me.]

The woman yielded to the system; it was harsh, but it was the truth. She can never surpass the being that is called the \'System\' in front of her, doesn\'t matter how much she tries.

\'We all had the same potential, but having the same potential means the one who started first will be the victor, it doesn\'t matter how much other one tries, they can never surpass that one. So why am I being foolish enough to think that he will surpass those beings?\'

"I understand. I apologize for that, I won\'t repeat it."

[It\'s good if the familiar understands their fault. You are free to tell him anything besides those beings, but you haven\'t told him much. You even got your memories back. So why? Are you waiting for something?]

The woman thought for a while before replying to it.

"I can\'t be with him for too long. He will come face to face with that demon soon, and when that happens, he will understand it all, till then, I am going to tell him only the things he needs to know, everything else; I am sure he will find that out himself."

[He has been assigned to you, so it\'s your choice to make him or break him. I am also following the duty given to me. I am just a medium to fix the broken pieces, so I can\'t do anything about you. But I do hope, you will get your revenge.]

[This boy is unusual, I feel the aura of that thing in him. So he probably is going to be someone extraordinary, but I doubt if he will surpass even you. If that aura helps him, then he might but I don\'t think something like that is even possible.]

[Still, she has told me he is a key and is a major asset for the future war. So take good care of him. And don\'t make me interfere a second time; if I have to do this again, then all of your races will cease to exist. I am not like my eldest brother, who abandoned his duty; keep that in mind.]

With its last warning, the system screen disappeared from its place.

The woman stood motionless for a while. She thought hard about the system\'s warning, and it\'s the last line.

\'The eldest brother? The being which was the first one to be created. Mothers didn\'t say much about him to me, only that he was the strongest and after them, no one could fight against him.\'

\'Can those beings even be surpassed by anyone? Even if they have that aura?\'

***

Outside world.

Evan called out to the system many times but it didn\'t answer. And just as he was about to call it again, its voice sounded in his head.

[Sorry for the late answer, host. You couldn\'t understand that last because of your strength. Once you are strong enough, I will tell you about it again.]

Once again, he couldn\'t know the truth because of his strength, it was getting annoying and irritating for him to hear that thing all the time, so he decided to become direct and ask,

\'Just how much stronger do I have to be to know the truth?\'

He was getting desperate now. He, from the bottom of his heart, wanted to get stronger, but how much? How much stronger does he need to be to know about himself?

The system turned quiet then. Its silence gave Evan an answer, and he became disappointed. Why can\'t he know about himself? Just what does he have to do or achieve to know about himself? He couldn\'t get any answers for that.

But then, the system finally spoke,

[When you see me.]

\'Hmm?\'

[The moment we met, not from this system, but face to face. If that moment ever comes, I will tell you everything. I will solve every doubt in your heart.]

<But we meeting with each other is simply a lucid dream; I want it to happen, but at the same time, I know it will never happen. We aren\'t destined to meet. I am only responsible for showing you a path, that\'s all. I only hope that, someday you can surpass that demon and kill him. It\'s the only thing I ask from you.>

Evan asked excitedly,

\'Really?!\'

Not realizing what was waiting for him in the future.

[Yes, host. But don\'t be disheartened even if we don\'t meet, you will know about yourself. I believe you can achieve that.]

\'You talk as if we won\'t ever meet. You said after I get stronger, you will evolve as well and can even manifest in front of me.\'

[Yeah, but you will have to be strong first. Just talking won\'t make you strong. \'Talk no Jutsu\' doesn\'t work in the cultivation world.]

\'Why do I feel we are targeting anime too much?\'

Nova, beside Evan, shook him a bit after he zoned out for too long, taking Evan back from his mind space.

"You are taking again? Don\'t do it when you are explaining something to them. They must hear that."

Nova said, pointing out that others needed this knowledge, not her, when in reality, she was the only one who was the most curious about it and the one who understood what Evan was saying better than anyone.

Evan then continued to explain further, and he decided not to talk about the domain for now.

"As I was saying, you awaken a domain after a certain realm, but to reach that realm, you need not only determination and willpower but potential as well."
