Chapter 219 Answers



After Alex regained consciousness, the first thing he did was check his galactic shop to find answers prepared by AI Zero.

The galactic shop had a new category named *Awakened* with three sections, namely the (Tecnologies, Answer, and Galactic system).

The technologies section had similar technologies to the ones available in the normal categories, vastly lower in number, but everything was of much higher quality, and they were exclusive of Mana awakened.

Alex spent a few minutes exploring the new technologies and was a bit surprised to see that he couldn't purchase any of the products while all physical products were available, not as blueprints like in the regular section of the shop but as physical products.

Alex didn't need to be a genius to understand that Zero was keeping a monopoly on those items by not providing the blueprints, and as for why he couldn't purchase any of the products, it was because he had yet to join the galactic system.

Alex then shifted his focus to the second section, where he could ask questions and receive corresponding answers.

Alex started by asking about the detailed information on the conditions one must fulfill in each Rank to advance, and the information he received was no different than what he already knew other than it being a bit more detailed.

Alex followed it up with more questions about various stages through the path of mana warrior, and in just a few minutes, he gained answers to many of the questions that plagued his mind after awakening mana.

Alex learned detailed information, from how to refine one's heart to take the first step in the path of the mana warrior to how to use the mana to strengthen the body and cleanse it of impurities to reach the third Rank.

He also learned information about various technologies exclusive to the awakened that could be used to progress faster and complete each Rank condition with less difficulty.

Alex was impressed by the quality and volume of information he received, and with a bit more hope than before, he started asking questions that plagued his mind from the moment he returned back in time.

[Account of Question Answers]

'Let's hope I can learn some truth and not just fabricated lies,' Alex thought as he spoke his first question.

"What is the True Purpose of Ancient World?"

"The true purpose of the Ancient world is to awaken individuals of potential (Awakened) from Earth and let them hone their skills through the virtual reality." An emotionless voice echoed in Alex's ears.

"For What purpose the intergalactic civilization wants to awaken Humans and provide them with opportunities and resources to advance their strength?" Alex asked, knowing he wouldn't receive the correct answer.

"Negative"

"The Awakened needs to be a member of the Galactic System and reach the early Elementalist Stage (Fourth Rank) in real-world to receive the answer to his question,"

Alex expected to hear a believable lie, but he received an unexpected answer which gave him some hope to discover the truth one day, but it also raised more questions while making him realize the importance of the galactic system.

"Is The skills, Mystic Arts, and the Ancient World knowledge usable in the real world?"

"The Awakened need to understand the complete working of any skill to replicate it in the real world while most Mysitic art from the Ancient world could be performed if all requirements are fulfilled, and the same is true for any form of knowledge."

The answer was vague, so Alex asked for a detailed explanation but received a negative response.

Alex followed up with more questions asking about the galactic System, three years' absence of the Galactic shop, the involvement of Human individuals in power, and ways to keep his identity hidden.

--------------------

The answers Alex received were vague, but they confirmed many of his doubts while also clearing his worries about getting involved with individuals of power from the real world.

Alex knew that individuals of power from Earth were deeply involved with the intergalactic civilization and even held authority which was apparent after seeing the absence of the Galactic shop for the first three years.

Alex didn't know what level of authority those individuals in power held with AI Zero, but now that he had awakened, which he believed was something of extreme rarity, he expected them to approach him if they had the means to do it.

Alex's concerns were addressed after knowing that all the information recorded by AI Zero about any individual game and real life was kept private, with no exceptions to this rule.

Alex felt relieved that his biggest concern was addressed, and unless he revealed his gifts himself intentionally or not, there was no chance of individuals in power getting involved with his life.

Alex lastly moved to the third section, which had nothing much to explore as it was just a system, as its name implied, but one for the real world.

'I am not surprised that I could receive a system, but disappointingly it is very limited compared to the one in the Ancient world,' Alex thought, looking at the floating system window before him.

------------------

Galactic System: A system with limited but similar capabilities to the one every Player utilizes in the Ancient World.

The features include Status Window, Guidance, Help with Rank Promotion, and World Chat, while the features that are not included are Leveling Up, Semi Immortality, and Being able to learn skills using the system.ραпdαs `nᴏνɐ| сom

Accept System: Yes / No

------------------

'Why even give a choice when you leave me with no other way but to accept it,' Alex thought as he accepted the system.

Alex understood that being bound to a system meant being under the influence and control of the unknown, but unless he didn't want to find out the truth and not get involved with whatever was planned for humanity, he had no choice other than accepting the system.

[System Notification]

[The system will be completely integrated with the User in twenty-four hours, and to access it, you just need to say the system command.]

Alex felt relaxed, having dealt with all the immediate matters related to the real world while acquiring information about various subjects.

'I will check the system after I log out, but for now, Let's deal with the matters of the Ancient world, and I can start with checking what reward I received from the third test of might,' Alex thought, as he opened the system notification log.

'Nice,' Alex thought with a bright smile, looking at the list of notifications.

---------------

---------------

'The skill is straight up broken with its ability to ignore defense while the title is good, but the real reward is the hidden wisdom stat and the Spirit Art,' Alex thought as he started checking the details benefits of the wisdom stat before moving on the checking the Spirit Art.

The wisdom stat gave an impressive boost to all his senses, and he could use all his spells with less wasted mana and perform them quicker while he also had increased resistance to any form of mental attacks.

ƥαṇdαsηθνε| The truly invaluable benefit was his ability to think and learn was vastly improved, making him experience less difficulty understanding Elemental Concepts and World Laws, which also included any form of skills, spells, and knowledge.

Alex was looking at the vague description of the Abyssal Resonance Spirit Art when the room door slowly opened, and a beautiful elf dressed in golden and white dress entered the room whom Alex instantly recognized as Palace Head Maid.

There were close to ten golden trays filled with steaming hot food floating around the Head Maid, which surprised Alex a bit, and after giving him a slight bow, she took a table from her space ring and placed all the food dishes on it.

"Domain Ruler, You must be hungry after all these days, so before you get busy with your life, please have a meal," Head Maid Ealirel said with a bright smile as she placed a comfortable-looking chair beside the table.

"Thanks for your hard work," Alex said with a smile closing the system as he left his bed.

Alex took his seat, placing all his plans aside, and with an empty mind, he started eating one of the best meals of his life.

Alex spent the next half an hour tasting every available dish, and as the palace head chef, Grandma personally prepared everything for him, every foot item was more delightful and satisfying than the last.
