05. Massacre

Reynard was stunned as he looked at the holographic screen right in front of him. He suddenly remembered his initial enthusiasm, the thought that he might gain special abilities like the main character of a fantasy genre manga with a transmigration theme, one of which was to gain a system, like a system in a game.

"I have a system? SYSTEM?! Yahoo! I finally have a special ability for me to become stronger than anyone else quickly!" Reynard shouted happily in the living room of his house, jumping for joy with a look of excitement on his face.

Once his excitement had subsided a little, he tried to catch his breath, jumping up and down was quite draining. He noticed the metal box in his hand which was now no longer covered with rune lines on its surface, it was more like an ordinary metal box. There was nothing special about it.

"Although this metal is already useless, it's better that I keep it. After all, this metal itself is not simple if it can store a 'system' inside..." He then waved his hand, imagining a storage system that usually only existed in games on Earth, and sure enough, the holographic screen in front of him changed to display a row of empty boxes with the words 'storage' at the top.

"This system I got is very practical, similar to how the system looks in the game, so I just need a little customization to know all the features inside..." Reynard fiddled with the system in front of him, he 'explored' many features, such as the saving feature, the system store feature, the training room and so on.

Of course even though there were so many features inside, almost 90 percent of the features inside were still locked, which meant he could only use them when he reached the system's minimum requirements. For example, the system shop, he could only use it when he was at level 5.

"Well, this doesn't matter. With the Supreme System, I can become stronger than anyone in this Isekai world and become the ruler of the world! Hahaha!"

Imagine a 7-year-old child laughing 'evilly' in the middle of the room while putting on a confident face, it must be adorable. It's like watching your child bragging about being the ruler of the world, isn't it?

"To level up, I need experience, but how do I get it?" He looked at the system screen in front of him, switching to another page to see more details about EXP and how to get it.

[How to level up: gain experience until the next level threshold]

[How to get experience: Kill monsters (10 EXP), help others (1 EXP), kill insects (1 EXP), kill humans (100 EXP), complete system missions (EXP income is adjusted according to the difficulty of the system mission)]

Reynard raised his eyebrows once he finished reading the second paragraph of the system explanation in front of him. "It's exactly what I thought. Getting experience isn't that difficult, but the higher my level, the harder it is for me to level up. Well, I'll think about that later, anyway right now I'm still level 0, which means leveling up is still very easy for me."

He planned to increase his level, wanting to feel the sensation of 'leveling up' even if it was only by one level. He was even thinking of immediately leveling up to tens even if he had just gotten the system, something that was difficult even for most main characters in a novel or comic.

"To level up with my current body condition, the fastest way for me should be to kill insects, right? Helping others involves a lot of processing, so I'll skip it for now." Reynard looked around his house, searching for small insects that he could get rid of, or rather, kill.

"Ants! There are ants! Don't run away from me, I'll kill you, little ant!" Reynard stepped on five ants with his little foot, of course all five ants died.

[+5 EXP]

[Congratulations! You have traveled the initial path to the peak of power. {+10 stat points}]

[Stat points: points that can increase the Strength (STR), Agility (AGI), Vitality (VIT), Dexterity (DEX) and Intelligence (INT), Lucky (LUK) stat, according to your needs in the future. The higher the stat points, the stronger the master will be]

[Random box has been given as a starter gift]

[Open the random box? (yes/no)]

Reynard felt like he was in a real game, it felt too unreal to be real. "Awesome! It turns out that this is what it's like to be the main character who has the system of a fantasy manga... Aih, never mind, I have to be strong more than anyone else in order to avoid the things I don't want in the future. Never mind misfortune, even if I am a miserable person, I will become strong first."

He was determined to prevent misfortune from coming him way, so what if the Goddess of Fortune never favored him? He would defeat the goddess of fortune herself and make her kneel in front of him, just maybe he would make the goddess of fortune feel what misfortune was.

"Yes, open the random box!" he said.

[Random box opens!]

[Congratulations! You got 10,000 system coins]

[System coins: system currency that can be used in the system shop. You can also exchange it for real world currency, 1 system coin = 100 gold coins]

"Wow! It seems like all the luck I never got so far has piled up into an incredible fortune! Who would have thought that I would get 10,000 system coins on the first day I got the system? Hahaha!" Of course Reynard was happy, knowing that the highest currency in the Mondelez Kingdom was the Mondelez gold coin, which meant that only the nobles had it. Commoners seemed to find it hard to even get one bronze coin, whereas he had just gotten 10,000 system coins that he could exchange for 1,000,000 Mondelez gold coins.

Who wouldn't be happy to get so much money when he was short of money? It was even difficult for him to buy groceries considering he couldn't work due to his age.

"I will never forget all this, Goddess of Heaven. She gave me the system, so it can be said that everything I got is thanks to her..." he recalled the moment when he and the Goddess of Heaven met in the Dream Nebula. A meeting that might not happen a second time in the future.

"Since this is the case, how about I increase my level first?" he muttered along with a grin that looked both terrifying and adorable.

It should be said that little Reynard was so cute that everyone in Oshley village thought that Reynard would become a handsome man in the future. But he's only 7 years old now, so instead of 'handsome', the word 'adorable' would fit him better.

Reynard wandered around his own house, looking for some insects that he could exterminate, he even dug the ground for ant nests to slaughter.

What a cruel boy.

"Hahaha! Feel the wrath of this demon king, being able to die in my hands is an honor that you will never get, even after all of you are reincarnated!" He said while burning the termite nest. He said while burning the termite nest in his backyard.

[+3 EXP]

[+10 EXP]

[+18 EXP]

[Level up ↑1]

[Level up ↑2]

[Level up ↑5]

Reynard stopped doing his 'slaughter' act once he knew that there were no more insects or insect nests in his house. Even so he was not disappointed at all, after all he had leveled up quite quickly considering it was only his first day getting the system.

Reynard imagined the system screen appearing in front of him while resting in the living room.

[Name: Reynard Fillmore]

[Age: 7 years old]

[Level: 7 (27/236 EXP)]

(HP: 10)

(DEF: 4)

[INT: 1]

(MP: 2)

[LUK: 1]

[Stat points: 31]

Now that Reynard was no longer amazed by the system screen in front of him, it only made him realize that he did have a system that could make him stronger.

"Without needing to look at the system explanation, I know the use of every stat in the system. After slaughtering many insects, I gained quite a few stat points that I can allocate freely, my level is also quite high. Given that there are many limitations due to my small body, for now I'll put the stat points into the Strength and Vitality stats equally. This body still can't do much heavy work, I also get tired quickly because of it. Perhaps in the future, I will focus on increasing Agility and Intelligence, those two stats are also very important when engaged in combat." Reynard's insight was unquestionable, he knew how to use the Supreme System well and allocate stat points accordingly.
