Very quickly, the system returned to its place as though sneaking around its host.

And Dorian, who was in a state of close cultivation, calmly raised his brows playfully.

\'Where did you run off to?\'

\'...\'

The system felt very guilty and scared after ratting out its host like that. But it dared not tell the truth, lest it damaged the bond he had worked so hard to build with its host.

That is, compared to when it first came into this world, now, the host was willing to talk to it... Even if it was just 2 or 3 words at a time.

So wasn\'t this progress?

(:T0T:)

[Host! Host! Don\'t be angry. The system just wanted to sleep a little. That\'s all!]

\'Oh.\' Dorian replied casually before entering cultivation mode again.

It felt the system leave it briefly, and even after calling the system, no one responded to him.

So it figured that it either went to sleep or went somewhere else.

And because he couldn\'t be bothered with the system\'s movements at this moment, he didn\'t notice its anxiousness.

Phew.

The system wiped its non-existent sweat, thanking its lucky stars that its host hadn\'t noticed its weirdness.

\'Next time, tell me in advance... And, I hope you don\'t have the habit of making me repeat myself. This should be the very last time this happens, understood?\'

The system trembled with fear and guilt: [Yes! Yes! Host. I will definitely tell you in advance before falling asleep next time]

\'Hmm.\' Dorian hummed while putting the system\'s matter behind it.

The warning now was the only one it would give it.

For one, even though he rarely depended on the system, why should he have an Ace card up his sleeve and not use it?

The system for him was his last and final backup in any situation.

So if it were to disappear or suddenly fall asleep during tasks or working hours, then it would screw up his backup plans.

Dorian\'s eyes glowed mysteriously.

A non-reliable system was not what he needed!

Shiver. Shiver.

The system felt goosebumps after feeling its host cold aura leak out.

It didn\'t know how, but it suspected that its host was secretly criticizing it in his heart.

The system had no tears but truly wanted to cry.

What should it do if its host is a little too evil?

Master... Master... It really missed its Master\'s kind aura right about now.

(+w+)

.

Like so, the system stayed as silent as it could while watching over its host that was deep in cultivation.

And after another 2 hours or so, its host finally opened its eyes before clicking his hands calmly.

Woosh!

The small jewelry-sized wooden box on the other side of the room steadily flew towards him and landed in his palms.

Eh? What did its host want to do?

~Catchak!

Dorian unlocked the box and opened it slowly.

And only after the system saw the content within it did it go crazy with worry.

[Host. Host... Why are you still playing around with this thing? If you say it\'s an underworld relic, then do you know how much danger you\'ll be in once it\'s discovered?]

The system was so terrified that it almost wanted to go back to its master and report the host\'s movements yet again.

This time, it was thinking of its host\'s safety and nothing more.

Of course, those were its initial thoughts after seeing the bone-finger relic.

If those who sent the relic to this world were looking for it, then wouldn\'t the host\'s life be in grave danger?

The power from the relics was that of fallen Underworld Rulers, for heaven\'s sake.

So do you know how much power was stored in this tiny thing?

F***!

Those who gathered and activated as many relics as they could, would undoubtedly be powerful existences that could destroy an entire city with just the flick of a wrist.

The system seemed to be pouring water on a duck\'s back because no matter how it spoke, its host still remained as silent as ever.

But, it was his eyes!

They glowed with a strange light that deeply scared the system.

Honestly, the system felt that if not for the heavenly oath, its host would be more evil!

Well, maybe not too evil

After all, its host was the sort of person that wouldn\'t pick a fight with anyone.

He never started troubles but did a damn good job at finishing them.

In a sense, he always acted in self-defence and nothing more.

So... Could it be that its host was actually just a good person who liked living like a hermit?

Ahhh! Humans were so confusing! Especially when they have both Yin and Yang in them.

So it was okay for its host to be both good and bad, right?

.

Sigh...

,m Forget it.

The system had long given up on understanding its host, and was now focused on its host\'s well-being instead.

After all, it just promised its master that it wouldn\'t disappoint him.

So how could it lose its host so soon?

[Host. That thing is dangerous, and you\'re not strong enough to handle it. So I\'m only worrying for your saf...]

\'Shut it. My ears are bleeding.\'

[...]

Fine! Fine!

The system felt like it was a mother taking care of a troublesome child. What else could it do?

Who made it contract the wrong host at the beginning?

Why didn\'t it contract a lovely host just like its other system friends?

Dorian focused on the relic in his possession, staring at all parts of the bony finger deeply as though trying to find the key that could unlock the relic.

\'As you said, this is a protected space created by the heavens, correct?\'

[Yes, host.]

\'And, nothing outside can detect what\'s going on in here, right?\'

[Yes, host.]

\'So, if I activate the relic in here, no underworld being will be able to sense it, no?\'

[... Yes, host... But....]

\'Hmmm... Then that\'s good.\' Dorian said, as though dismissing the system to shut up.

Dorian stared at the bone intensively.

The bone was somewhat silvery and seemed to mesmerize any who stared at it for long.

But Dorian seemed remarkably unaffected instead.

Why?

Why was its host so strange?
