System Information
After Xiao Xing felt reassured that she wouldn't die from the knowledge or that someone would come after her, she took the initiative to ask the system about its functions. The system replied that the Fate System aims to produce the Key of Lights.
She asked why it didn't choose Ouroboros or Will, since both of them are at the peak of the Beast Path and only a step away from becoming the Wheel of Fortune. The system answered that the final trait of Sequence One is heavily tainted by the Key of Lights, so a completely new Transcendent is needed to resist the pollution and prevent being controlled by the will of the Key of Lights. It added that it didn't really like either of them — one is a subordinate and the other is constantly running away, so it truly doesn't favor them.
Xiao Xing then asked how it would help her become the Key of Lights. The system told her that with Karma Coins, which she can collect by helping people or doing good deeds, she can buy things from the system's shop. Since she had entered the body of the deceased Linda, she would start with 100 Karma Coins, and the Beast Potion costs 50 coins. The Fate System can provide any ingredients for any path, as long as she pays with Karma Coins.
She asked if it could provide the recipe, and it replied yes. Then she asked how to open the shop. The system told her to think about opening the system panel. She did so, and the system interface appeared:
Name: Linda
Age: 19
Race: Human
Path: None
Do you want to open the shop? (Yes/No)
She clicked "Yes".
A prompt appeared: Enter what you need
She thought about a Beast Path Cover Card, and the following appeared:
Cover Card (Beast Path) – Cost: 5000 Karma Coins
She then asked about the Machine Potion, and it appeared:
Machine Potion – 300 Karma Coins
When she returned to the system interface, a new prompt appeared:
Do you want to link the system to your bank account?
She asked the system what this meant. It replied that she could withdraw money from her bank account through the system, and the bank would record that she withdrew the money. She could also deposit any amount she wanted through the system.
Finally, when she asked the system about the current date, it answered: January 1st, 1345.
