God of Systems: Maker of Heroes and Villains

"Yeah, him and his gang's main base is located in the same district where my sister lives so maybe you'll find him there. Unfortunately, he's cut off all contact with me and my sister." Keith said when he heard Norn's question.

"Is that so... okay, take a seat and wait for me. I'll come with you since I have something urgent to do and it involves your brother's gang." Norn said and when he saw Keith's curious expression, he added, "Don't ask me about the details, I won't tell you anything."

Keith lifted his arms in a surrender position, showing that he won't ask him anything. He watched Norn walk into the kitchens and looked around.

This planet was called Earth, but it was a bit too different for it to be the same as the Earth from where Keith originally came from. Around 20% of the population underwent something called the "Awakening" between the ages of 3 to 20.

People got various diverse abilities when they awakened, but all of them were categorised into four types.

Physical, Elemental, Summoning and Mystic. Physical awakeners would have different forms of physical enhancements like overall strength, vision enhancement, smell, elongation of limbs and what not. Some could even turn invisible.

Elemental was basically just getting the powers of elements in various forms. Most common ones are being able to shoot things from their bodies and the other is to turn their body parts into an element. Like a rock body or flaming body.

Summoning includes the summoning of various things and creatures like swords, spears, bricks, dogs, snakes and even gorillas. A few of them can summon divine artifacts and supernatural creatures like three headed dogs or staff wielding monkeys.

Mystic Awakeners were the rarest and also the most diverse types known to mankind. In a sense, everything that didn't fall into the first three categories would be thrown into this one. Some of them had really weak abilities such as predicting the weather, accurately sensing the direction of the winds or being able to listen to the voices of the dead.

There were also extremely over powered abilities such as future sight, fate alteration, human puppetry and multiple others.

After a few minutes of waiting, Keith saw Norn walk out of the kitchen with a large bamboo basket filled to the top with bread loafs. Each one was the size of an adult human's arm.

"When do you plan on leaving and uh... in which district is your sister by the way? After her marriage, I've never seen her come here so I don't really know much about her anymore."

Keith nodded, "Auberg district... but do keep in mind that she's been married for the past two years and that her husband is a sheriff. I know that you liked her so-"

Before he could finish his sentence, Norn waved his hands, dismissing his words as he interrupted him, "Don't worry, I have much more important things to do that to go behind a married woman. Don't worry too much."

"If you say so." Keith said as he shrugged before adding, "I'll leave tomorrow, but if you're in a hurry, then feel free to leave before me."

Norn nodded, "Okay, I'll do that then."

After saying that, he left the place while Keith stood silently while watching Norn walk further and further away.

'Set condition. Activate system the moment he reaches Auberg district.' he gave out a mental command and saw a slight glow appear around Norn's body before it dissipated.

'Preparations are done... but now I'll have to focus on my own life.'

He walked out of the restobar and headed back home. There wasn't much to do, but he preferred to take his time and go through things thoroughly as this was a life he wasn't too familiar with. He had received the memories, but he knew that he had no special feelings for his close ones like his sister.

Once he got back home, he glanced at the small calendar that was hung up on the wall and walked straight to his table. While he grabbed the important files that he would need for job hunting, his thoughts wandered.

'It's year 4664 right now... The novel began at the year 4660, which means that 4 years have already passed. Clark should currently be in the Morose Kingdom and since I'm in the neighbouring Kazak empire, it'll take a long time for me to even get a glimpse of his face.

I'll focus on gaining personal strength using my system administrator powers first and when the war between the neighbouring kingdoms start, I'll most probably be able to keep my life intact. If things go well, I should be able to reap some benefits too, like a nobility title.'

He grabbed his result sheet, his birth certificate and finally, his citizenship certificate. These three were the most useful ones that he had and the others were just contract papers for the rent of his house, admission papers, which were of no use after his graduations and various other unimportant things.

From under his bed, he pulled out a small suitcase and safely put the three important papers inside along with the money that was under his mattress. Then, he grabbed his fountain pens, ink bottles and two books that he owned before putting those inside the suitcase too.

Books were extremely pricey, so people from poor backgrounds like Keith, would rent or lease books before returning them.

There was still quite a lot of space inside, so he stuffed in the two extra pairs of clothes that he had and closed the suitcase.

"Everything packed and ready to go. There's no need to talk to the landlord about leaving as long as I leave the contract here." he muttered as he read the contents of the contract.

There was only one simple condition which said that he could live in this place as long as he paid the weekly rent.

'That guy is too rude, so I don't really want to talk to him.' he thought as he made up his mind and got onto his bed, planning to get a good night's sleep before departing to Auberg District.
