Chapter 192 Host, Don't Lump Me With Those Trash Systems
[For the first question, the host is correct. Ordering a Universe Realm Powerhouse to kill himself will work since its effects are temporary. Unless it will take the Universe Realm Powerhouse more than a day to kill himself then the effects of the authority will wear off.]
[As for your second question, you are also correct. At the least, the <[Absolute Order]> authority will only last for 1 day but if the Universe Realm Powerhouse has weaker willpower than the average Universe Realm Powerhouse, then the effects will last more than a day.]
When the system replied that to him, Allen immediately knew what skill to use the absolute ability upgrade on.
“System, use the absolute ability upgrade on the <[Absolute Order]> authority.”
It was a no-brainer that Allen would choose to upgrade the <[Absolute Order]> authority.
Upgrading the <Supreme Order> talent would only increase his power level to Perfection Realm Peak Stage and even with that power level, he can’t even fight against those Universe Realm Powerhouses.
And although attaining the Perfection Realm Peak Stage power level will allow him to use the <[Absolute Order]> authority to affect those at the Universe Realm, the effects of the authority still wouldn’t be permanent unlike the upgraded version of the <[Absolute Order]> authority.
Not to mention, upgrading the <[Absolute Order]> authority would mean that he could obtain a weaker alternate variation of the <[Absolute Order]> authority which would be the <[Overlord Order]> authority. And that <[Overlord Order]> authority would allow him to order those who are weaker than him without any usage limit.
With those two options in mind, Allen would undoubtedly choose to upgrade the <[Absolute Order]> authority since upgrading it meant that he could fight against those at the Universe Realm power level.
[Ding!]
[Is the host certain in upgrading the <[Absolute Order]> authority or not?]
The system was thoughtful enough to ask him that since if it didn’t, there would be a possibility that with a slip of his tongue, he would accidentally choose to upgrade the <Supreme Order> talent instead of the <[Absolute Order]> authority.
“Yes, upgrade the <[Absolute Order]> authority.”
Receiving the confirmation from its host, the system sent another system screen message to him.
[Ding!]
[Due to the host possessing low willpower, the host will be unconscious for 1 day and will undergo horrendous torture and tragedies in the host’s dreamscape to improve the host’s willpower to that of a Universe Realm Peak Stage power level.]
[Despite knowing that, will the host proceed to upgrade the <[Absolute Order]> authority?]
When Allen read that system message, he was startled since he didn’t know that he would need to increase his willpower to Universe Realm Peak Stage to be able to use the upgraded version of the <[Absolute Order]> authority. Although, he already expected that it wouldn’t be that easy to upgrade the <[Absolute Order]> authority even with the absolute ability upgrade reward.
‘I knew it! It was too good to be true that I can upgrade the <[Absolute Order]> authority and order those at the Universe Realm Peak Stage without any price.’
‘I already expected that upgrading an overpowered skill such as the <[Absolute Order]> authority even with using the absolute ability upgrade reward would still have a price to pay. But at least the system told me about this beforehand unlike those trash systems that would just inform this to their host but still proceed with the ability upgrade process.’
When Allen thought that in his mind, the system who heard that was offended when it found out that he compared the system with those trash systems.
[Host, don’t lump me with those trash systems. I am the most advanced and versatile system with the most growth potential in the entire Katake Multiverse. So it is a given that I will treat my host well since without you and your chat group members, I wouldn’t be able to exist.]
The system wasn’t an ungrateful soul parasite who wouldn’t care about its hosts. After all, it was grateful to Allen and his chat group members since it knew that without them, it wouldn’t be able to exist.
After all, systems relied on their host so if their host or hosts were dead, then they wouldn’t be able to exist and would be forced to find a new compatible host.
But the AMCG System knew that other than Allen and his chat group members, it didn’t have any other compatible hosts unless the Main Task that required them to invite a new chat group member would be issued. So it wasn’t stupid enough to treat its hosts poorly since its life and existence depended on its hosts.
And since Allen was its main host, Allen’s death would be the death of it. But since there were sub-hosts such as Lolicon Shota Cultivator With Soul Fetish and Time Manipulator Of The Apocalypse, it would take at least a month for the system to be yeeted into nonexistence.
“Alright, I know that you are the greatest system. Anyways, can I delay the upgrade of the <[Absolute Order]> authority?”
Allen asked his system that question since he still wasn’t prepared yet.
[Since the host hasn’t started the process yet, then the host can delay it as much time as the host wants.]
Receiving that reply from the system, Allen sighed in relief as he wouldn’t be forced to upgrade his <[Absolute Order]> authority that early.
He still hasn’t prepared yet so when he received that reply from the system, he closed all of his system screens as he headed to Iris’ room.
He planned to inform Iris about him sleeping for a day so that she wouldn’t worry about him.
Arriving at the door that leads to Iris’ room, he knocked several times and the door opened as it revealed Iris as she played a chess game on her tablet against a chess engine or chess AI.
It seemed that his previous chess match against her had motivated her to improve her skills in not only chess but also other games so that she wouldn’t lose miserably against him.
“Iris, I have something to tell you.”
