My Descendants Are My Power

"Game, Mystic Burner... Game, Mystic Burner..."

Ethan stared at his computer screen, his brain in overdrive!

This world was already all about cultivating psychic powers, where anything could happen, and since he was a time-traveler, he'd seen his fair share of weird stuff.

He quickly realized this wasn't just any game.

This computer had been dug up from an ancient tomb.

Meaning, it's likely this game was a cheat code that accidentally became his.

The options "Tribute Offering" and "Divine Gift" were channels through which this cheat code could benefit him.

Through "Divine Gift."

The descendants in the game would grow stronger, snagging precious items from the game world to give back.

And he could get "Tribute Offering" through the Mystic Burner.

"So now, I gotta do everything possible to help Nathan level up!"

In his room, aside from the familiar music, Ethan could even hear his own heartbeat.

But still.

Ethan kept his cool, his demeanor chillingly calm. In this Psychic Gear world, even if the whole planet exploded, Ethan wouldn't sweat it.

Watching the game timer.

"Please place your Divine Gift into the Mystic Burner."

"3:45"

Time was ticking. If it hit zero without a gift for Nathan, the next Ancestral Communion wouldn't be for another ten years, and by then, 20-year-old Nathan might starve!

Ethan suddenly stood up, scanning the room while thinking of what could be useful.

"What should I give him? Food? Nah, he's a runaway, he'll figure out how to eat."

"An Energy Stone? Nope, Nathan's just a regular dude, and that could bring him trouble!"

"The way of cultivating psychic powers, yes, that's it! Strengthen himself, and he can survive and grow the family over these ten years!"

Ethan frantically searched his room.

Finally, he found a dark book, trembling as he placed the stone carefully into the Mystic Burner with just 1:00 left on the "Divine Gift" timer.

And then, the game system's message appeared again.

"Detecting your Divine Gift—"

"Psychic Arts Manual"

"Would you like to send it?"

Ethan didn't hesitate and clicked 'yes'!

This "Psychic Arts Manual" was modern tech fused onto an abandoned Energy Stone.

It combined the essence of Psychic Arts Manuals condensed over a millennium by numerous Psychic professors globally, a prenatal-level textbook for all psychic power cultivating academies!

Without a doubt.

This was the perfect study material for Nathan. Only by mastering power could Nathan improve his survival odds in the game world and lay a solid foundation for his family's future!

"This is..."

At that moment, Nathan on the screen, clutching the "Divine Gift," seemed to have an epiphany. He knelt before the altar, declaring, "Unworthy descendant thanks the Forebearer for this gift, I will not let you down!"

"Glug glug..."

Ethan casually threw his legs up on his gaming chair and took a big swig of Coke, "You better live up to my expectations, survive and fiercely multiply, expand our clan!"

Ethan cranked up the game's time speed to max in a flash!

Soon, the altar in the game vanished, leaving just a shabby little hut.

But under Ethan's intense gaze, Nathan's living conditions started to improve bit by bit.

A field began to form next to the house.

The original wooden hut slowly started to be rebuilt with stones.

Outside, there were poles for drying meat.

And more trees started popping up around.

A whole hour passed.

It was like peeping into someone's life, and Ethan found it all pretty wild.

"Your descendant Nathan has adapted to living solo in the mountains, diligently studied the 'Psychic Arts Manual,' and finally became a Foundational Energy!"

"Forebearer bless!"

Ethan saw Nathan bowing at the altar again.

"Spiritual Tribute +2"

"He finally broke through!"

Ethan was just as thrilled, checking Nathan's stats.

In a long list of data, he found the key info.

"Trait: Striving Hard"

"Though his talents are poor, he works harder than anyone."

"That's my boy, facing life head-on just like me!" Ethan praised.

Then, Ethan set the game's time speed back to normal, realizing it was about time for dinner.

He headed to the dining room where the table was already set with two dishes and a soup.

He poured himself some soup, took a sip, then started loading his bowl with food, turning to Lisa with a puzzled look, "Did you get in touch with Chris? What did he say?"

Lisa replied, "I reached out, but no word from Chris or the others from Blackwood."

"Huh?"

Ethan paused, frowning, "Even if they wanted to delay my allowance, they wouldn't dare ignore me. Here's what you do, go to Psychic Sanctuary No. 8 in person and leave a message. John Smith there goes out daily, ask he to inquire when he's out."

"Yes, Commander."

After giving the orders, Ethan rushed back to his room to continue the game.

Allowance is allowance, but Ethan knew a huge opportunity was right in front of him, and taking the 'cultivating psychic powers family simulator' seriously was what mattered most, everything else could wait!

At the door, Ethan stopped, looked at Lisa who was clearing the table, and said, "Oh, pack up this food."

Lisa was already prepared with the packaging.

"Understood, Commander. Same as before, deliver it to the gatekeeper Mr. John."

"Right."
