Looking at the rewards, Eren was slightly surprised. The increase in stats offered was quite high.
Previously, he only received option rewards that could increase his stats by less than ten. But with his increased level and stats, the base reward had also increased.
Although some of those stats looked lucrative, he had already made up his mind on what he was going to do.
Moreover, although the stats were appealing, it was nothing compared to the increase in levels at this point.
He only needed five more levels to cross the next great wall, and three of those levels could be gained from the reward itself.
Normally, he expected it to be easier to level up, but even after killing Li Yunfeng, he only gained six levels. Each level was becoming more valuable with time. How could he say no to three free level ups?
Eren's gaze lingered on the option screen for a moment longer before he made his decision. His finger hovered over the first option, and with a tap, he selected it.
[You have selected Option One: Kill Ye Liang]
[Reward once completed: Level +3]
....
Ye Liang was lying in a bathtub which was made from snow crystals.
Despite that, he didn't feel cold as he kept running the new skill that he had learned from the Frost Demon. If anything, the water was just the perfect temperature for him.
"The old man had quite a nice skill. However, his face when I learned that skill instantly was worth seeing."
There was a proud smile on his lips as he thought back to the moment when Li Yunfeng was constantly praising him, calling him a genius that's born once every thousand years.
"He didn't know that it's not a talent but my system that lets me earn any martial skill right away. All I need is to spend some contribution points."
"As for being a genius that's born once every thousand years? No! I'm someone who was born once in eternity! I am the one fated for greatness. With the help of my system, I will soon be the one above all!"
Even the freezing water shouldn't calm his flaming thoughts about his future desires. He believed that no one could understand him. No one was as special as him!
He was selected by this system which didn't make sense. Only heaven could make something like this! Hence, he was selected by the heavens! He was not something that could be understood by mortals.
He even looked down on everyone else, including his master. For him, Li Yunfeng was only a master in name. Why would he take those useless people as his Master? They were only stepping stones for him.
They were placed in this world so a heaven's chosen like him could use them as stepping stones to climb higher. It was only a matter of time before he was going to leave this 'master' in dust and reach a higher stage.
"For now, he is still useful, especially since he seems to hate Elder Ren. If I use him well in the trip to the Western Continent, I might be able to complete the main scenario quest."
"With the help of Li Yunfeng, I will soon kill Elder Ren. I'm already looking forward to the reward for completing the first main scenario."
He kept talking to himself as he was the only one who could understand him. There was only one person in this world who was as talented as him, and it was he himself. At least that's what he thought.
Whenever he thought about Eren, he was always reminded about how he was used as a servant.
"Elder Ren, I hope you had fun using me as a servant. Because next time we travel together, you won't be left breathing..." Ye Liang smirked as he closed his eyes, feeling the comfortable feeling of the freezing water.
He didn't realize that right on the other side of the wall, there was a person standing.
Eren's arms were folded around his chest as he stood with his back resting against the wall, hearing Ye Liang talk to himself.
'Killing me? Main Scenario? It seems my appearance in this world had already changed the future of this main character before I even left the bed for the first time.'
Quite a lot of things started making sense for Eren, especially the reason Ye Liang tried to kill his disciple. He already expected something like this, but this had confirmed it. It was a quest for him and nothing more.
In the novel, the main character didn't seem to have any special quest to kill Elder Ren or Yu Lin. But this time, it was changed. His quest had changed.
He wondered if it was because Ye Liang's system considered the present of him, who already knew the future, as a threat for the growth of the main character.
Hence, the first main scenario became the annihilation of the variable.
Eren stood in silence, frowning.
'How strange... Something still doesn't add up. It's as if his system didn't know that Ye Liang wasn't capable of killing me. As if... it didn't know that I had a system as well?'
