"It wasn't Cronos that gave you the System. It was the Zombie King," She answered.
"??!" My eyes opened wide as I looked at her expression of sudden sadness. Though it was only for a moment before she regained her cheerful aura. Her smile widened as she then bought a couple of black coloured shoes.

"Wait! What do you mean that the System was given by the Zombie King?" I asked as I shifted my eyes back to Rhea who was still selecting items one by one. She looked at me for a couple of seconds before she pondered a little and then asked,
"What's your most preferred weapon? Is it a gun since you lived in a modern society?"
"No! Don't change the topic. Rhea-" I was speaking before she looked at me with a certain smile. She was looking at me, but she had a distant look.
"You know Michael. I really wish I could tell you everything… but some knowledge has to be revealed with time. If I tell you anything that you don't need to know right now… everything might collapse. You don't want to end up making a choice you might end up regretting, do you?" She asked as she looked at me with slight sadness.
I observed her, unable to utter even a single word. My eyes wanted to know the answers, my heart was too scared to know them… it has been a while that I felt this way… just what is it?
"But… how can I not think about what you just said?" I asked again, and she then began choosing the items again,
"You don't exactly have to. For now, you need to focus on what is going to come in the future. I know it seems confusing, but it's not that hard to not think about it. Just divert your attention."
I just looked at her as she picked up the times, asked a bit of questions regarding my choice, before helping me with different items that looked good on me while also having a proper effect.
[Gloves of Riega(Rare)!]

Price: 25 Million Cronas!]
While there were a few more artifacts, Rhea then placed it back in as she spoke about how I need it later and not now. She had a really deep look before she asked,
"What quests do you have right now?"
That question got me back out of nowhere as I placed the quests in front of her. She looked at it one by one before finally stumbling on the easiest one.
"Alright. For now, we will focus on this quest. If you can then try finding more quests and fulfill them too," she spoke while pondering deep..
Chaos in Rebellion!]

"Do you want me to upgrade any specific skill?" I asked, as I understood her. The only way to increase the skills was the Skill Points, and in order to get it, quests were the only way left for me.
"I do. But first let's get you back an old skill of yours," she spoke as she brought out an old skill of which I totally forgot about.
ραndαsΝοvεl ƈοm [Skill Converter(Rare)]
[Effects: This skill allows you to eat skills that you don't use and in return provides you with 50% of the Skill Points that you have used on them
Cost: 5000TP/Per use
Price: 500,000 Cronas]
"It's sad that that's all that is left. But I guess it's better than nothing," she spoke as an evil smile formed on her face. Though it wasn't just her, I was even feeling rather excited just by looking at this skill. I totally forgot about it. Damn!
'This is basically a cheat at this point,' I thought as I looked at it before looking at Rhea.
"You thinking what I am thinking?" I chuckled before she laughed too as she spoke,"Like it?"
I nodded.
The idea was simple. It was to buy the skills from the market and then exchange it for the [Skill Points] which then can be later used for upgrading the other skills.
"How many Skill Mastery Points do you have?" Rhea asked as she looked at me and I pondered before speaking,"One as of now. Though I guess with 10 Mastery Points, we should be able to get a lot of Mythical or higher skills."
"Not so fast. There is a limit to what a skill can be upgraded to. Some skills have only Uncommon or Rare max and they stop after that. Don't be too rash. Let's take a look at everything one by one," she spoke as she stopped me from getting it over my head.
"Is that so? Well. At least for now, we should increase the levels of skills which we already have to max, don't we? Or is there any limitation to that, too?" I asked as I looked at the System, barely stopping myself from starting to upgrade the skills.
"I guess there isn't any problem if you do it that way. But still, let me confirm it once again if there is anything like that," she spoke as she began looking through my System for a while before finally nodding,
"All right. Everything seems to be fine. Since there is no problem, which skill are you going to upgrade first? And since you have a single mastery point, which are you going to upgrade?"
I observed the system as I spoke,"Let's go with this one first then… I am pretty sure it will be worth it."
