Host, Please Be Honest! What Exactly Are You?

Chapter 107 My Precious~~

The system's heart skipped a beat while looking at the silvery-bone textured relic in Dorian's hands.

Oh No! What should it do? What should it do?

The system felt as though its poor system-lifespan was being toyed with by its host.

Underworld relics being around humans was definitely a bad idea!

If the relics came from angels, then the repercussions would be slightly better.

However, an underworld relic only meant disaster for humans that possessed them and couldn't activate them.

Underworld beings in possession of the relics would remain fine and unscathed, even if they failed to activate it. But humans were different.

Okay. It was best to start with the basics when it and to these relics.

In general, Underworld creatures were 99% more liable to activate underworld relics.

It was just facts.

And humans only had a 1% possibility of activating them.

That is, the relic wanted someone with power, as well as someone whose heart and entire being were deemed worthy enough.

The majestic air around the human must be inconceivable for that to happen.

Additionally, they also have to unlock the relic's potential, as though solving a puzzle too.

And throughout human history in this world, there have been some humans that managed to activate these relics... Like Emperor Yuzah way back in this world's ancient times.

That said emperor was recorded as one of the bloodiest Emperors of his time.

It was said that he could kill an entire legion of warriors all by himself.

.

You know, the stories went on like this, but now modern people don't believe it.

Anyway, after his body reign, he somehow died mysteriously, 2 years later.

No one knew who killed him, but what they didn't understand was that the moment he awakened the relic, a surge of power emitted out that almost called the attention of all demons to the mortal world he was in.

What was even more frightening was that the demons that already existed in this jurisdiction quickly came for him one after the other, all wanting to take the relic.

Emperor Yuzah fought using the demonic power within the relic and managed to kill them day by day.

,m Again, the rock could replenish itself by absorbing the fear and souls from Yuzah's enemies.

So imagine how invincible one could be?

It was just that after 2 whole years of fighting almost every single day, he ended up getting swallowed whole by a demon who took the relic away to absorb its powers.

So you see, humans keeping relics was just too dangerous a thing.

How long could one fight every single day, forever?

Humans couldn't absorb the power in the relics unless they reached a very high cultivation rank that was complete immortality.

Such a rank would take tens of thousands of years to get to.

And cultivators didn't exist in this world.

So... it was safe to say that humans here couldn't absorb the power in the relics, unlike the underworld creatures that could absorb the powers and get it done with.

In that way, they wouldn't get targeted, and many might but even know that they absorbed the powers in the end.

So humans were indeed at a disadvantage.

.

Additionally, if one held on to the relic but didn't activate it, the relic would slowly make them seem mad to the rest of the world.

My precious...

They would sleep with the damn thing, stare at it all the time, and forget about the other important things in their lives.

F***! Some would even kick their wives, husbands and children out if they dared touch the relics.

There have been cases of people in other worlds forgetting to eat, so much so that they ended up looking so bony and malnourished.

Some also cut their own limbs out just to get the relics back.

No doubt about it, in the hands of any human that couldn't activate it, these relics would no doubt be deadly.

So thinking in this manner, how could the system not get worried for its host?

The longer its host stayed with this relic, wouldn't it make him eventually grow mad in the end?

The system wanted to say something but once again had another doubt in his eyes.

Wait. This wasn't right.

The first time the host picked up the relic, shouldn't he already be so drawn to it that he wouldn't be able to put it away.

But not only did its host not seem hypnotized, but he also acted as though he didn't seem to put the relic's enchantment in his eyes at all.

So why was that?

The system had once again fallen into another wave of doubt. But it only felt as though it was overthinking things again.

After all, didn't its master confirm the truth to it a moment ago?

Its host was normal, and all this was talent!

.

Dorian stared at the relic lazily, wondering if his guesses were right or not.

In his old world, they said relics could mesmerize and enchant people.

So why didn't he feel anything?

Or could it be that he was wrong, and this wasn't a relic at all?

Dorian borrowed his brows and quickly threw his doubts away.

The one thing he trusted was his intuition.

Maybe he was wrong at this moment, but his intuition told him that he was on the right track.

Additionally, he could feel a very minute, almost non-existent extent of power trying to leak out from the strange finger.

Hmmm...

Dorian tapped his fingers deeply.

He could test it out on his men and see if they got drawn to the relic. But the cons outweigh the pros.

And maybe because of the original owner's good feelings towards his men, as well as his own grown likeness for them, he didn't want to use his men as guinea pigs.

Because if this thing was truly a relic and he allowed them to see it just once, you best believe that they would start searching and acting like a person on drugs, always scratching and looking for something.

So he decided not to go about things in that route.

Nonetheless, he still has other ways of testing it out.

But for now, it was to keep this thing well hidden and away from anyone's eyes.

He felt that rather than the system whinning, it should be grateful that he picked this thing up.

Or, what if it fell into the hands of some other human?

Dorian placed the relic in the box and quickly hid it away.

Heh. He was going to unlock the power within the relic.

But he was still too weak to handle it now.

With that, Dorian continued his deep cultivation.

And soon enough, it was time for him to get ready.

That's right. It was time for them to head to the Auction Home!
