The sounds of spoons clashing with plates continued to echo in the hall. Arthur raised his head and watched jaune take small mouthfuls of soup then he shocked his head lightly and went back to eating soup while thinking: Even though I knew that Tom is really multi-talented, but I didn't know he could cook like that, and he was also fast. I really don't regret summoning him.
Arthur hummed lightly and continued to eat until the dish was finished then he stared again at jaune and found that she had also finished her soup. Arthur put his hands on the table and pushed himself back and stood up from the chair and said, "It was a good meal, and it's late now. Plus, there's a little fight between you two the next day so I think it's time to get some rest."
Jaune also stood up and arthur said again, "So, Ms. jaune, do you want me to tell tom to arrange you a room here or do you have another place where to stay the night?" jaune shook her head and said: "Thank you, I already have a place to spend the night. I won't bother you anymore. We will meet tomorrow at dawn."
While she said to herself: "should I sleep in the wilderness for now or return to my castle, even though it is far away. You know, one must know when to retreat and when to advance, in order to leave a good impression on him, so I will retreat this time."
Arthur nodded and said: "I do not want to prevent you from doing what you want. Well, tomorrow at dawn, we will meet again." Arthur turned his head and took out a bell from his pocket. Shake it gently to make a "ding ding" sound.
Tom quickly appeared and made a military salute to Tom. Arthur opened his mouth and said: Military moves, huh? That aside Tom please escort our guest to the gate." Tom looked at Arthur, then at the yellow Primordial, then he motioned with his hand for the yellow Primordial to follow him.
Jaune did not hesitate much and quickly followed Tom into the hallway and saw it was decorated with knightly armors. She could not help herself asking: Where did those armor come from? "Are they magic dolls or just normal armor? Although I do not feel any mana or magical energy on them, is it that cat unique skill."
While jaune was thinking, she soon found herself in front of the gate. And saw Tom actually taking out a chainsaw from behind his back and made a small door inside the big gate. Tom pushed the small door and bent his hands towards the outside, politely indicating for jaune to get out.
Even though she really moved and even gestured to Tom, but in reality she was shocked and said in herself: ....WHAT hell did I see? After all, I been bombarding that gate for 10 days. And I can say that it weighs more than thousands of tons, but that cat was able to break through it with an ordinary chainsaw it's not even a mana-enhanced tool, but just a mere blade.
The other puzzling thing is that he took out a hammer and nails and was able to make a small gate perfectly and ideally, in a short time, I mean like huh forget it, my head hurts so bad thinking about that cat actions.
Jaune shook her head and flew into the sky, heading towards her castle. When tom saw that girl leaving, Tom waved to her lightly, then entered the castle, closed the gate forcefully, took out an iron key from behind his back, and closed the small gate with it.
He putted the key in the ground and placed a small red carpet on it and shouted: "yaaaahoooo!" and began to perform a weird dance that expresses his joy. Yes, Tom is happy because that girl has left and he already cooked food, which means that he does not have to do other things and he can be lazy and sleep or watch TV. While Tom was jumping for joy, Arthur came out of the hall and said: Tom, I know you are happy because you will get a little rest, but before that, can you clean the hall first and then make something like a bed for me to sleep on??? After all, I was sleeping on an old piece of cloth, which made my back hurt."
Tom stopped and stared at Arthur, and his expression was like "oh man come on just when I thought am going to get lazy" then he nodded and headed towards the hall. Arthur sighed and smiled and said: "Tom is truly a bless."
I hope he gets lucky tomorrow, Okay. "Let's walk around the castle for a now while waiting for Tom to finish his work." Arthur sighed again and walked into the hall. He was surprised by the two facing and identical rows of medieval knightly armor placed along the hall, one on the right and the other on the left, with a sword pointed at the ground in the hands of each knight.
Arthur stared in admiration. In the armor and said: Who would have thought that Tom could decorate the hall in this way, but how he came with these armor, haha, how can I judge a cartoon character with common sense? Then Arthur saw the small door inside the large gate and said: Did tom made that door? Indeed, Tom is smart. Instead of opening that heavy gate, he chose to make a smaller gate, lighter in weight, and more practical.
Arthur approached the small gate and tried to open it, only to be surprised that it did not open. Arthur wondered aloud: "Is it locked? Where can I find the key? But knowing tom brain circuit I would say he either eat it or hide it under the carpet" and as expected it was under the red carpet.
Arthur took the iron key and opened the small door. He took a few steps forward, raised his head and stared at the dark, clear sky. There was no source of light except a red moon. In the sky, he felt uncomfortable and anxious.
Arthur shook his head slightly and said, "System, are you here?" There was no answer for a while. Arthur opened his mouth and said, "I apologize for upsetting you earlier. System." The answer was the same. Nothing appeared for a while, and when Arthur was about to open his mouth again. A blue system screen appeared: "Really you truly sorry?"
Arthur nodded and said, "I am very sorry. I truly apologize if I made you angry." Immediately after Arthur finished speaking, a pink system screen appeared: "Who would get angry because of the childish behavior of a kid? Or do you think I am a child? Also, to you think that I would get angry for a trivial reason". "Hmph, idiot."
Arthur's eyelids twitched slightly and he said, "ano... the system are you by any chance a tsundere???" immediately after Arthur's question. A red screen exploded: Who is the tsundere? You are a tsundere and your entire family is a tsundere."
Arthur said quickly: "Okay, sorry, sorry. I am the tsundere, okay?" While he said in his heart: "Yes, you are a tsundere 100%." A blue system screen appeared: "Hmph, stupid." Arthur felt helpless for a moment.
He needed the system so badly to live in a broken world like tensura, but the system was insulting him for no reason each damn second. Despite that, Arthur sighed lightly and said: "Okay, system. I want to ask you, how many cards do I have left, and can I gain ultimate and unique skills?"
A blue system screen appeared. "...."
Then it disappeared and another screen appeared, "Congratulations to the host for completing two hidden missions." Arthur stared in astonishment: Two hidden missions? What are they? " Another blue system screen appeared:
The first task: Invite the Yellow Primordial to stay in the castle for at least 4 hours (the longer the time, the higher the quality of the rewards).
The second mission: You have a castle right and you live in it right. so decorate it and develop it. The first stage is completed (There are total of 10 stages the host should work harder).
Upon seeing the first mission, Arthur began to feel regretful because he had allowed jaune to go and had not convinced her to stay for the night, but this did not last long after all he can't do anything about it now.
In addition, Arthur was looking forward to the reward and couldn't help it: System, what about the reward quickly? A slightly red system screen appeared: Have some patience and don't bother me. I'm working hard here. But you don't care. "Hmph, stupid idiot fat ugly".
Arthur was silent. For a while, he suppressed the urge to quarrel with the system and said, "Oh, I was a little excited. I will be patient now. Please continue." Another system screen appeared: "hmph, okay. As I was saying. Congratulations to the host for completing both tasks and obtaining the second updated version of the visual and audio effects, and since the host kept the Yellow Primordial for 5 hours will receive an additional reward "mastery of a specific element" (please choose a specific element)
Congratulations to the host for having the same amount of mana as Rimuru before getting a name.
Arthur was stunned for a moment, a question mark appearing on his face, then a trace of ecstasy appeared on his expression and he said: "Mana is on the same level as rimuru." This is very good, although the quantity is not high to allow me to stand among the upper class in the world, but at least now I am invincible in the middle class."
But before he could celebrate the system pour cold water on him "invincible in the middle class, my host is really stupid but hmph, this kind system will explain to you what you got is the same mana rimuru had before he got a name which means the same mana of a slime, the system is happy for the host you went from having the same amount of mana as goblin to a slime"
Arthur was stunned because of the system words and asked: huh what do you mean, before getting a name rimuru was able to kill a lot of monsters in the cave in the anime I watched how is that weak????!!!!
"I think the host is forgetting how broken and dangerous this world is, hmph my stupid host you really nothing without me so I will explain to you do you want the long version or the short version?"
Arthur thought and said: the short version please then a huge system screen appeared and started to show some data to arthur.
"taking this world laws and its own system I will measure the host existence value and this system already know that you don't have any idea about what is the existence value, so I will explain it, in short term it is the energy contained within the body and soul of an individual or object and it act as the basis for the ranking system in this world and my stupid host existence point are 3367 EP and for the host to reach what he called the middle class he need 100.000 EP"
"Using another type of measurement unit is in this world is the power ranking system and don't worry I will explain it to you It a system that classifies monsters and other hostiles by taking into account a variety of variables such as Magicule Count, Physical Strength, Defensive Capabilities, Speed, Skills, and Intelligence and it divide into":
-F Rank: A ranking assigned to those who possess little to no combat capabilities.
-E Rank : A ranking assigned to those who possess power equivalent to the average human adult.
-D Rank: A ranking assigned to those who have power equivalent to a soldier, requiring a group of at least 3 or 4 average humans to defeat.
-C Rank: A ranking assigned to those who have power equivalent to or above an experienced soldier with professional training.
-B Rank: A ranking assigned to threats that have the potential to wipe out an entire village singlehandedly.
-A Rank: A ranking assigned to threats that have the potential to severely damage an entire town, requiring the deployment of several high-ranking adventurers or a nations knights to be taken care of.
-Special-A Rank: A ranking assigned to threats that have the potential to destroy a small sized nation, requiring the deployment of a nation's army or a Champion-class individual to defeat.
-S Rank: A ranking assigned to Demon Lords and those of equivalent power, requiring a large nation's entire military and the deployment of their Champions to defeat.
-Special-S Rank: A ranking assigned to threats that no singular nation could hope to stand up against, such as true demon lords and True Dragons. It is believed that such threats can only be dealt with by the intervention of a Chosen hero.
"using this system the host is on the E Rank and to reach the middle class you need to reach B Rank"
Then the huge blue system screen vanished and what is left is the stunned Arthur but he noticed that the system was still going
Another small blue screen appeared and said: now that was the Tensura world own ranking systems now using this system own system the host is pathetically weak....
Arthur could not take it anymore and shouted: hey, hey, hey you said you would give me the short version system.
The system replied to him for the first time in a flat and expressionless tone even the tsundere tone was gone and even the screen was gray:" this is the short version."
Arthur then clasped his hands and said: ok fuck the ranking system for now and forget it let move to the other rewards, you said audio and visual effects, level 2 but was not the last skill you gave me last time in the perfect level already?"
The system screen appeared to answer Arthur's questions: The second version of visual and audio effects skill means that another feature has been added, which is adding feelings. Although the attacks will not cause real harm to the body, but it will make them like the pain was real but it not.
Arthur opened his mouth and closed it for a number of times before he said: "So you mean, if i hit someone with a fireball, even though that person will not actually be burned, he will feel the pain of the burning?"
The system screen appeared again: but put in your mind my host that the damage of the skill will not be higher from the real attack itself, but the pain resulting from it will be real. Of course, this effects of the skill can be turned off."
Arthur shook his head and said: Really good. "I love you, system. A pink screen appeared and it was written on it: "Who... who... wants your love? Idiot." But Arthur next words made the system want to vomit a mouthful of blood "wait I take that back saying I love you to a system sound cringe."
A very red system screen appeared: "Since the reward has been delivered, this system will leave. Hmph, idiot. Stupid idiot." Then the system disappeared.
Arthur rolled his eyes. He called the system several times without a response. Arthur sighed and said: What did I do wrong this time??? I didn't even get the extra reward, System, come back here.
Arthur shouted several times and then smiled. He laughed out loud and hummed to himself, "she is really a tsundere, but I'm actually thankful for her." Arthur smiled faintly and stared at the sky and began to think about several things until he lost his sense of time.
What woke him up was the feeling that someone was tugging on his clothes. Arthur saw Tom pulling on his shirt and pointed with his finger towards the castle. Then Tom hugged himself and his body trembled and his nose became red. Arthur smiled and said: "Thank you, Tom. Let go back home before we catch a cold." Tom returned to his normal self and walked after Arthur.
Arthur took the iron key out of his pocket and threw it to Tom. Who picked it up and closed the gate and put the key under the carpet again. Arthur patted Tom on the head and said, "Go get some rest. Tom, tomorrow you have a fight to win."
Tom nodded and raised his right hand and tried to show off his muscles, which he does not have. Arthur shook his head and said, "I know you are strong, Tom. Okay, I'm going to sleep now."
Tom nodded and pointed to the second floor. Arthur understood what Tom wanted to say and headed to the second floor, leaving Tom downstairs. Arthur entered the only room on the second floor. Calling it a room is wrong because it was huge as hell, but what made Arthur astonished was that the huge room was all decorated. Arthur smiled lightly and said: As expected of Tom.
Then Arthur went to the bed and got into it and said, "What a soft bed. I haven't felt this way for a while. Thinking about it, I'm really tired. I need to sleep in preparation for tomorrow." Arthur's eyelids began to get heavier and heavier until they closed and he fell asleep.
The sky, which was originally dark, is now slightly bright, indicating that the sun is about to appear, which means that the confrontation between Tom and the yellow primordial is about to begin.
