The Legacy System

Warning!!! ???, ??? egg combination noticed! The system opens the trade window for the Host.

Legacy System offers 50 Billion SP points to the Host for the egg!            YES/NO

This clearly sobered and shocked Eric at the same time. It looked like his Legacy System was trying to mess with him.

Otherwise, what could it be, this damn system had just increased the offer by 10 times. it was like it was trying to get his hands on the egg no matter what.

No matter how Eric looked at it, there was no way this was something normal. That amount offered looked like even the system had lost composure.

But wasn't his system supposed to be only some kind of mechanical device? It just didn't make sense for it to suddenly make moves like this.

At that moment his awareness towards the system just increased by more than the amount of those 50 Billion SP points.

A premonition appeared inside him that if he did hand over that small black dead dragon egg to the system, then he would most certainly regret it in the future.

He didn't really know what the egg truly meant, or what it held inside, he just knew that he couldn't hand it over to the system.

As this sense of realization dawned upon him, he felt a chill run down his back, as he couldn't understand how he almost fell prey to his greed.

It was truly pathetic for him, who was supposed to have to build a mentality of two lives, in order to lose his mind like that.

It was the kitten's untimely intervention that had stopped him from doing that mistake, and he couldn't feel happier about it as he started laughing out loud.

Whoever had witnessed these moments like the 4 ladies with him had, could think of nothing else besides the fact that he had lost it.

Most probably Eric had gone crazy at that moment, and they didn't understand why. It had happened so fast, and so weirdly that they weren't able to connect any dots.

Even the kitten that was slowly approaching him from afar didn't understand what was going on, as she forgot all her worries, and troubles, as she ran towards him thinking that something was wrong.

Unaware of the fact that he was being taken for a psycho Eric firmed his heart, and once again selected no from the question menu.

The moment he did so though, another bracket appeared from his system, which made him even more unable to understand what was going on.

Warning!!! ???, ??? egg combination noticed! The system opens the trade window for the Host.

Legacy System offers 500 Billion SP points to the Host for the egg!            YES/NO

But this time the offer didn't stay valid for long, as it was quickly taken down from the Legacy System itself, the only thing left behind was the new trade offer feature.

If at first, he was determined he had done the right choice, now he was completely convinced of it. Even the system was that little dragon egg this much, it was impossible for it not to be a priceless treasure.

But at the same time, he felt like for the first time after having the system, that the thing he had connected to his soul wasn't as simple as it looked.

Unable to control the enthusiasm inside his mind, and in a fit of trepidation as well, Eric once again laughed heartily, as if trying to ensure himself that everything was fine.

Hearing that laughter once again made the kitten even more worried of her Master, as she ran towards him with a rough breath, even though it wasn't difficult in the least for her, and said worried,

"Are you okay Master!? What is going on!? I am sorry! Really Sorry! Please, forgive me!"

Her thoughts, words, and actions were a mess, she just kneeled down in front of him, and in the middle of the desert saying those things.

It was only at that time that Eric was finally able to get out of his high emotions journey, as he looked at the kitten with a complex look.

Even though he was really touched by her crying, her words, and her actions, it was still extremely difficult for him to accept what was happening.

After all, not long ago she hated him and bullied him to her heart's content, and even he put her through some nightmarish treatment, so how could it be possible for something like this to happen.

It looked like she had fallen in love with him! And she didn't seem like she was faking it either, it was the truth.

This wasn't the first time that Eric was witnessing something like this, but damn that Stockholm syndrome was quite something.

Then being reminded of what had happened until now, especially the fact that she was the turning point of all this, and also his scream, and attitude he finally realized what was going on.

Seeing her like that touched on his soft spot, but he couldn't hug her, kiss her, and tell her that everything was fine either.

Furthermore, just because she had fallen for him it didn't mean that he had to fall for her too. It wasn't like this was some kind of normal relationship, or he was some virgin idiot.

So, he recollected himself quickly as he looked towards her and said with a calm and natural voice,

"I am letting it go this time. Let this be the first and last time that you do something without my permission! Was I clear!?"

The little kitten clearly hadn't expected something like this. As a matter of fact, she had resolved herself to die, so she felt like her Master was beyond magnanimous with her.

Not only hadn't he killed her, but he had also let her go with a simple warning. This didn't mean that she wasn't going to obey the warning though.

After experiencing such a situation there was no way she wanted to live through this ever again, she would turn into an obedient kitten for her Master.

She would do everything she could in order to make sure that she never failed her Master ever again, it was a promise to herself.

It was only at that moment that she finally understood that she had fallen in love with her Master and that her heartbeat was only for him.

She had never thought that something like this would ever be possible, after all, she was sure she wouldn't easily forget her old love, but not only had she forgotten it, she had completely erased it.

There was no one else besides her beloved Master in her heart anymore, as everything she had belonged to him.

So, hearing Eric's words, she felt like she had been reborn at that moment, as she made an oath to herself that this new her would exist only for her Master.

Eric on the other hand was getting more and more surprised by the changes that he was noticing with this kitten, as he couldn't wait to see how far she would reach.

One thing was for sure, she was on the right path, and if she continued working hard for him he would certainly not treat her badly.

But now wasn't the time to think about that, as he was worried that he had created quite the disturbance with his scream, so he quickly composed himself and said,

"Take everything of value from that other guy, and let us leave this place!"

The kitten immediately did as she was told, as she swept clean the other guy's body, taking his space ring, and everything of value, as she then left the scene with Eric.

Understanding that what had happened in this place wasn't anything simple, Eric had only two choices in front of him, one was to run away without the closing of the border, the second was to lay low.

Laying low was most certainly the best option as he could live in the desert for quite a bit, but that would totally be against his purpose for arriving here.

The best thing out of this whole mess was that these guys didn't have any idea of what had happened, and why.

Most probably he had more than a few hours for 'the Hand' to catch sight of the news and start moving.

It wouldn't be easy to block the border and make the army work for him in order to help him with the search for that special treasure.

So, this was the best time for Eric to move and leave the country, so he didn't lose any time, and immediately got to work.

He and the four ladies started running without stopping towards the border between Egypt and Sudan. It was a bit far from his current location, but he had the confidence that he would be able to do it.

For the next two days, they did nothing but run at top speed, rest, eat, and then run once again. It was a good thing that even the ladies were over level 10 otherwise it would have been impossible.

Slowly day by day the ladies were showing signs of weaknesses, but they still did their best in order to follow behind Eric without even a word of complaint.

On the third day, they finally reached the border, and even though there was tight security, and check, they managed to easily slip through.

It certainly wasn't easy to do something like that, but they had managed to pull it through, as it was finally time to relax a bit, and then continue with their work…
