Well, well, well... that is good.
[I am glad you like that, host.]
[Before we get to anything further. There is an unclaimed gift for you in the inventory.]
Like a novice gift package? Open it.
[Roger that, host.]
[Opening the gift package...]
Ding~
[Congratulations, host. You have received a skill "Clairvoyance (S)".]
Ding~
[Congratulations, host. You have received a weapon "Silent Night (A)".]
Ding~
[Congratulations, host. You have received an upgrade card "SSS-Rank".]
[That will be all, host.]
With my command, the system showed me three gifts.
One skill, one weapon and one upgrade card.
All of the items flowed before me on the translucent screen.
Could you show me what this skill is about?
[Clairvoyance: A skill that allows the user to see what the normal eyes could not. Not only can the user see the fine details, but the holder of this skill can even see the profile of anyone. The only exception is that the other party has the same skill too; in that case, neither can see the profile of the other.
Note: The skills can be upgraded but only in specific conditions.]
It truly is worthy of being an S-rank skill. If I am correct, the highest grade till now is S rank too, so it is already a top-class skill.
But... SSS rank?
As I thought, there is a higher rank than what we are familiar with.
I do not need to know about the weapon, though, as I can see it is a sword of A rank. As I am right now, it is more than enough, I will get a new one later.
Can I assume that I can upgrade anything with this card?
[You can, host. Be it a skill or anything, you can change its rank into an SSS grade.]
Even inheritance rights?
[Correct.]
I nodded my head at that response. There is no need to think too much about it; it was given to me so that I can change my inheritance into a higher one.
[You are right about that, host. A Sovereign do not start as weak. He shall always be at the peak.]
Peak, huh?
So SSS rank is the highest then. Well, either way, it is good for me.
Alright then, dear friend. Show me my profile.
With that command, the screen changed and what remained before me was my character profile.
Ding~
[The skill Clairvoyance is added to your profile.]
Ding~
[Revealing the character profile...
Name: Noah Weaverham
Race: Human
Age: 17
Inheritance: Small flame (F)
Level: 1
Physical stats
Strength: 13 Stamina: 16
Agility: 14 Endurance: 10
Mana: 10
Skills: Clairvoyance (S)...]
Hmm... so I am weak as hell.
[Hate to break it to you, host. But that is true.]
No worries, I can get by it. Levelling up will fix all of this.
As for my inheritance... no wonder he died. This seems lame as hell.
Out of curiosity, I decided to use my inheritance, generating a really damn small flame on the tip of my finger.
Small flame? Fuck, even a matchstick might create more flame than this.
It is better to be used as a torch in the darkness than to be used in battle.
"Sigh~ I do not blame him anymore. Alright, system, use the card on my inheritance."
[Roger that, host.]
Ding~
[Using the upgrade card on the inheritance "Small flame (F)"...]
[This process might take some time, the vast increase in the rank of inheritance will have effects on your body too. You might even become unconscious during that period. I suggest you head to bed, host.]
As the upgrading process continued, the system reminded me about the aftereffects.
I simply abided by the instruction and headed to bed, lying on it peacefully. I do not feel anything yet, but let's see how it goes.
Jumping from F to SSS, huh? That is a huge jump, like from the Earth to heaven.
Now that my inheritance is about to be SSS, I will get the chance to get more skills.
The number of skills you get is related to the inheritance you have. The higher the rank, the more skills you will have.
In my case, an F rank can only have 1 or 2 skills, even if they are lucky.
The only skill that I can think of with my small flame is a fire bullet. I don't think there is anything else that I can do... huh??
Why do I feel heavy suddenly?
Suddenly, my body began to feel sore, and my eyelids turned heavy, making it harder for me to open my eyes.
And in a matter of seconds, I was unconscious, yet the notifications in my head continued to ring.

Thanks for reading.
Damn, I racked my brain for all these inheritances.
