Free Web NovelChapter 19: System what happened to you?
Little by little, the dense white fog surrounding the figure slowly began to clear away. As the mist gradually faded, the blurry silhouette standing at the center of the shattered cocoon became clearer and clearer.
When the white mist finally cleared completely, the figure standing at the center of the shattered cocoon became fully visible.
It was Nova.
But at the same time—he no longer looked entirely like the same person as before.
After undergoing a complete body transformation, even his appearance had changed drastically. Previously, he had stood somewhere between 178 cm and 180 cm but now his height had increased to at least 187 cm.
His physique had become almost unnaturally perfect, as though sculpted carefully by the greatest artist in existence. It wasn’t overly bulky, nor was it thin. His body possessed a lean yet firm build packed with explosive strength, every muscle perfectly defined beneath his pale skin.
His long black hair had become even darker than before, resembling the endless darkness of night itself. The same could be said for his eyes. They had turned so deep and dark that looking into them felt like staring into a bottomless abyss.
As for his face—
although the changes weren’t extreme, his features had become sharper and more refined. Combined with his transformed physique and overwhelming presence, Nova could now easily be considered one of the most handsome men in the world.
At the moment, the only thing Nova wore was a pair of tattered shorts that had once been full pants before being torn apart during the endless battles inside the dungeon.
He stood barefoot and half-naked upon the shattered dungeon floor, surrounded by endless blood, corpses, and the lingering thick scent of death that still filled the chamber.
{Well now~ would you look at that... aren’t you looking quite handsome now ?}
"Fuck—! Who was that?!" Nova instantly turned alert, his eyes scanning the entire dungeon in confusion and shock the moment the sultry mature female voice echoed inside his head.
The voice sounded far too real.
{Oh come on~ you forgot me already? To think you can’t even recognize me after everything we’ve been through together... how heartless of you, ’Host’~}
"..."
Nova remained silent for a moment, completely stunned. Then he undersood , when the voice used the word ’ host’ at last .
"System... is that you?"
{Who else would it be~? Hmph. Now that I’ve upgraded, you don’t even recognize me anymore.}
"The fuck is going on..." Nova muttered blankly while staring into space in disbelief. "Why are you talking so differently now? Before you sounded completely emotionless, but now it’s like you’re an actual person..."
He paused for a second before adding with an even stranger expression.
"And why the hell do you sound like some mature sexy woman?"
At this moment, if anyone were somehow watching the scene, they would only see a half-naked man standing in the middle of a blood-covered dungeon while talking seriously to an invisible voice.
Anyone witnessing it would probably assume he was some insane pervert.
{To answer your first question~ after the upgrade, I gained many new functions. I also developed human emotions and understanding so I can interact with you more naturally while supporting you through my functions. Now I can communicate with you like a real person~ hee hee. Isn’t that cool?}
"...."
{And to answer your second question... I scanned your brain and found out your preferences. You seem to have intrest in mature women older than you the most, so I adjusted my voice and personality accordingly~ Aren’t you happy, Host?}
To say Nova was stunned would be an understatement.
’To think not only would I gain a system in this life... now I even have a system that can actually talk...’
"Bullshit..." Nova muttered blankly.
{No point denying it, Host~ It’s not like I’m judging you. I’m only here to guide and support you now. So instead of standing there shocked, quickly give me a proper name before we check your new profile together.}
Nova honestly couldn’t even argue back anymore.
"...Fine," he muttered while reluctantly accepting reality. It wasn’t like he was losing anything from this situation. If anything he kind of liked it. After thinking for a moment, he spoke uncertainly.
"How about... Luca?"
{...Is that supposed to be a joke? Because if it is, it’s not funny.}
The system’s annoyed voice echoed inside his head instantly.
"Alright, alright..." Nova sighed helplessly before thinking again.
"Then... how about Liya?"
A brief silence followed.
Then—
{Hmm~ ...That’s actually pretty good. Liya it is.}
"Okay, show me how much stronger I got before we get the hell out of this damn dungeon," Nova said while stretching his sore body slightly.
{Here you go~} frёewebηovel.cѳm

=================
"Damn..." Nova stared blankly at the status screen for a moment before excitement slowly filled his face. "I really grew this much..."
"My level is already 110 now..."
"That means I successfully completed my First Evolution..."Nova clenched his fist tightly as he felt the terrifying amount of strength hidden within his transformed body.
"And now every single one of my attributes is over hundred..."A grin slowly spread across his face. "I feel way stronger than before. Right now I could probably fight ten Moonclaw Tyrants at once..."
"Haa..." Nova laughed excitedly as his blood boiled with happiness.
"And those ridiculous skills..."
Especially Mutation and Fusion. Those two abilities were practically cheating. Completely law-breaking. "As for Infinite Adaptation Core..." Nova shook his head helplessly. "That thing was already overpowered from the start."
He also noticed that nearly all of his passive skills had evolved significantly. Not only that, he had also gained two completely new resistances—Poison Resistance and the strange new one...Chaos Resistance.
And his inventory had become stacked with loot as well. "I’m definitely going to make a fortune selling all this stuff later..."
But then his expression suddenly changed slightly as his eyes stopped at one specific section.
Race: Human (???)
"...Why the hell is there a question mark beside my race?"
{That’s because you consumed an enormous amount of demonic beast flesh over time, and your Mutation skill allowed your body to safely adapt to it. Because of that, your body has now developed slight demonic characteristics.}
{Even right now, despite not actively using Demonic Aura, traces of demonic energy still naturally leak from your body.}
"I see..." Nova muttered calmly.
Surprisingly, he wasn’t particularly shocked after hearing the explanation.
Honestly—
it explained a lot.
He had consumed countless demonic beasts to survive inside this dungeon. Their flesh and blood had helped him grow stronger and ultimately allowed him to reach this point alive.
And because of that it made sense that his body had started changing as well. Even if it meant slowly drifting away from ordinary humanity...Nova didn’t regret it.
