I Hate Systems

Chapter 625 System Slayer Auction

Chapter 625 System Slayer Auction

??'What happened now?' Stencil frowned, sensing nervousness from her father's voice, which was strangely unusual. After all, even when he was chased by the entire group of Systems forming the Luck Genre, he didn't sound this nervous.

??"Is something the matter?" Wayna looked at her, asking in concern upon staring at her frown.

??"No, it's nothing." Stencil shook her head, smiling a little before whispering, "What does everyone do here usually?"

??"I'm just not sure what to do now that I've gifted Aronaut."

??"Ohh, about that…" Wayna thought for a moment before smiling in response, "Well, it'll be interesting. Just keep watching."

??"Ohh…alright." Stencil nodded before replying to Compass Carburettor.

??[Dad, everything's fine here. Don't worry too much. If anything happens, I'll inform you immediately, alright?]

??[Fine, but be quick about it. I'll be there instantly to protect you.]

??[I know, dad.]

??'It seems something has happened for him to be this serious.' Stencil thought, turning serious as she began to consider the possibilities. What existed in this world that could make the Main Character nervous?

??It definitely wasn't a System, since without the Restriction Order, irrespective of the type of System that arrives, they could casually use the System World to leave this world and head elsewhere.

??Without their mobility restricted, they wouldn't be placed in a dangerous state.

??So, if the cause wasn't Systems, then would it be System Slayers?

??Stencil felt the possibility wasn't high as no matter how strong a System Slayer was, the same argument in regards to Systems could be made. If they weren't strong enough, they could simply escape to the System World. 

??'This only leaves one entity…' Stencil sighed in the end, staring at the amicably smiling face of Slayer, 'Of course, as even the first Main Character is his disciple, he should be the only one that can make my dad nervous.'

??Her thoughts came to a halt as Aronaut cupped his fists before everyone, "To those I promised return gifts, give me a month to procure them. Following that, I'll accompany the rest one after another to the world of your desire to help you."

??"It's our pleasure," The rest of the System Slayers cupped their fists in response.

??"Now that we're done with this," Slayer smiled as he clapped his hand once, "We'll now host an Auction. If you wish to put up any items for auctioning, head to the room beside to deposit them. I'll take them out one after another."

??Immediately at his words, the System Slayers headed to the nearby room to casually place the items there that they wished to sell. Most seemed used to this, having been visiting here every decade.

??The rest followed after the veterans, soon exiting the room.

??"Come with me, I'll show you the ropes," Wayna said, dragging Stencil with her as they entered the room, staring at the pillar in the centre of the empty room. Pointing at it, Wayna said, "We usually keep our items here."

??She then took out a System Fragment that she placed on the top of the pillar, watching it vanish soon after, smiling to say, "The items would be stored in another dimension from which teacher would take them out one after another to auction. He doesn't even take any commission fees to do this, so it's the best."

??"Do you wish to auction anything?" Wayna asked next.

??"Sis, I'm broke." Stencil rolled her eyes grandly, "I gave the only thing I had to Aronaut."

??"Haha, right, you've only become a Slayer recently." Wayna chuckled in response, bringing Stencil out of the room.

??'Everyone seems pretty excited.' Stencil thought, noticing most of the System Slayers eyeing the veteran System Slayers in excitement. It was apparent that they had put up good items that they hoped the veterans would compete against each other to bid for and raise the price as high as possible.

??Slayer eyed everyone before speaking, "The majority here are True System Slayers, and hence can store a large amount of Mental Energy. But, you all remember the time when were had just become System Slayers, barely able to store any Mental Energy in our bodies. Even if we obtain a Core Skill, we always lacked enough Mental Energy to use them freely. And hence,"

??He condensed an item in his hands, one that resembled a cylinder, "A Personal Fragment add-on that can store up to a hundred thousand Mental Energy. You can easily attach it to your Personal Fragments without any issues. I'll put this up to start the auction."

??He looked at those among the group that weren't True System Slayers, eyeing Stencil too in the process, "This is for the lot of you. Feel free to bid for it."

??"2…Silver Minda…?" A System Slayer seated almost at the very back raised his hand, stating hesitantly.

??Upon seeing that he wasn't cast judgemental stares by the True System Slayers, he sighed in relief. Immediately after, another System Slayer made the bid.

??As no True System Slayer participated, the wealth put forth wasn't much. After thinking of something Stencil participated in the bidding war, but never tried to win.

??After all, she wasn't comfortable in getting that Add-on or whatever Slayer had mentioned. If she truly wanted something like that, she could be shameless and ask Gahrat to make one for her.

??As the Lord of Creation, as long as she was aware of the existence of such an item, she should be capable of creating it.

??But, Stencil still acted like it was a waste when she couldn't win the item in the end as a fellow System Slayer bid the highest.

??Slayer attached the cylinder to the System Slayer's Personal Fragment, ensuring no problems would arise as he said, watching the System Slayer digest the relevant information, "Once you become a True System Slayer, it would become useless for you. Give it over to someone else that needs it then."

??"I will do that." The System Slayer nodded in excitement, paying a price of eighty Silver Minda, which only amounted to 8000 Mental Energy, a paltry sum for Stencil that blew it up casually to purchase Skills from the Astral Network.
