"Martial Saint System?".

Soma's brain halted its function. everything that he knew about the power from the series and many of the classes that he remembered. This was the first time he heard this kind of information.

"Why?".

Soma' head was still in disarray. He tilted his head and asked the person before him. Martial Saint, on the other hand, nodded opened his mouth, and began to explain.

"Well, about that..".

Martial Saint began to recall his memories and tell Soma about the inscription. Apparently, when he was nearing the end of his life. He wrote the inscription, hoping that there would be someone who would inherit his power, and used it for good to help humanity when facing great danger like in ancient times. Then after using half his life and all his life experience, he succeeded in making a relic.

"Because of that, I could talk to you here as a fragment".

"I see..".

Soma covered his mouth and began to ponder. "So using his half-life to create the relic, it leaves his small fragment inside it and probably, waiting for a good time to find someone whom he is deemed worthy enough to inherit his will". However it leaves a big question on Soma's mind.

"Why Me, though? I think there are many people out there who are more worthy than I am?".

"..Well, here is the thing, boy. I didn't choose you".

"Hmm?".

Soma's body stiffened, his eyes opened wide. His earlier assumption was denied vehemently. Now his mind was in disarray.

"If you are not the one who decided that then who? ..Don't tell me!".

The Martial saint lifted the corner of his mouth, then answered. "Yeah, it was the inscription itself. It choose you".

"Wait! Ahaha, This is insane". Soma muttered. "I never thought that this out of box situation could happen. Is it because of my action I take, to save those two, or is it my existence? that made that guy rewrite the power system balance in this world.

Martial Saint System, sounds great from the name". Despite the crazy thing that happened before his eyes. Soma's heart fluttered. He felt like, floating on a sky while resting his body on the surface of a cloud that looked fluffy, while enjoying the scenery. Grinning from ear to ear.

"..You seem happy about it"

"Eh? Ah,, um. Well, yeah".

How could he not be happy about this? It doesn't mean that his current ability was lacking. But, he needs something that would give him a bigger chance to survive in this world. A power that no one else had, his only unique power.

The martial saint feels amused seeing Soma antic. Even after hearing his name and holding the inheritance from the martial saint himself. He is still not thinking of using it for evil reasons. Instead, in Soma's expression, Martial saints could feel the excitement and determination to overcome any obstacle in his lives.

"Good, hold onto that mindset. Because, my power was not something that should be used for restraining someone's will. It should be used with a proper goal and freedom in their choices". Martial saints muttered.

"We don't have much time, There are three things that I want to ask you".

"..Okay, please".

The Martial saint nodded his head while raising his three fingers up.

"First, You are my true inheritors, and you have the freedom to use that power for a good purpose or a bad one. It was your choice, but I believe that the person the inscription coose was not someone who would wield my power to do something wrong".

Soma furrowed his brows, then soon shook his head vertically. He needed to remind himself again to live in this world only to survive, and if he could. He will save her with his newfound power. He clenched his fist and renewed his resolve.

Martial Saint nod his head before continuing. "Second is, You had a devil inside your consciousness. For now, he was in a sealed state, but it didn't solve the problems as a whole. You must find a way to kill the devil's soul once and for all or subdue it, this was impossible though. It will help lessen your worry, and open up your imprisoned thoughts".

"..Yes".

There are many methods to relinquish the devil, but with his current state. It is not possible to make it happen. That could become one of the reasons for him to do his best in getting stronger.

"As for the third..".

The Martial saint hesitated. He scratches his cheek, feeling nervous. "Um, It is a bit selfish for me to say it but. Fuu,, Can you please take care of my descendant? If you ever encounter them, and if they have any problems, please help them. This was my personal request".

Soma opened his eyes wide, not expecting the Martial saint to still care for his descendant. He nodded his head, because he didn't have any intention to refuse, also. It was worth trying to persuade that boy to come into our camp.

"Okay, if I have a chance to do that. I will do it".

"Ohoho, Thank you truly, Soma".

"You are welcome".

All of a sudden Soma's vision shook, and he could see his body begin to turn transparent.

"I think it's time".

"Indeed it is. See you next time, Soma"

"Yeah, See you next time".

His body began to vanish leaving the Martial saint who was still looking at Soma's disappearance.

"Soma, as my inheritor I am expecting a lot from you".

***

Soma slowly opened his eyes slowly as his scattering thoughts began to gather, arousing his mind to wake up. The first thing he saw after his mind was cleared was a white unfamiliar ceiling.

"Where is this?".

Looking around he noticed that he was Lying on the soft sponge alone in this wide room. On his left he could spot some mechanical monitor that beeping monitors his heartbeat. Then, on his right, he could see a silver metal drawer with a remote control, a steel plate that had a plate that was filled with a peeled apple, a transparent cup, and a small kettle on top of it.

Probably it was prepared for soma when he woke up.

"So I was in the hospital".

Carefully he began to raise his body afraid that there was some injury he sustained. But contrary to his thought his body was the epitome of health itself.

Soma felt that his body was filled with abundant power and he didn't feel any discomfort at all. He raised his body into a sitting position and looked around. One thing he found odd.

"The room is too wide for one person".

No matter how it looked it was a room for a VIP person. In front of him he could see a monitor with a 45 inch display hung above strapped onto its stand. Beside him, he is welcomed by the brilliant light from the sun that gives color to the world. Soma sighed, pleased with the welcome.

"..I am thirsty".

Soma shifted his sitting position. He is now facing the window, then raises his right hand to take the transparent cup, before passing it to his left and grabbing the kettle that is a bit heavy, and filled with mineral water. He poured the content into the glass and drowned it in one gulp. As if it isn't enough he keeps pouring the cup until the kettle is light.

After his thirst was quenched. He put down the kettle and the cup. Then he sighs, never in his life has he experienced that thirst as if he was adventuring in the Sahara desert.

[The user skill had leveled up]

[Mental enhancement level 7]

The translucent window began to appear before his eyes blocking his sight, but soon soma opened his eyes wide. After reading the last notification from the window.

"Huh? level 7 …Eh, is that..".

In this world skills could be categorized into 3 stage. First it was a beginner stage where the skill level showed a number from 1 - 3. Then, Intermediate, When the skill level was 4 - 6. Last is, advance stage when the skill level reaches 7 - 9.

As for level 10 there is only a select individual who could reach that state.

Soma's mental enhancement skill was now level Seven. That meant, his skill was already entering the territory of advanced stage skill. A feat that couldn't be achieved by a mere 14-year-old boy.

Because, there is even a person who trained their ass off until they reach seventy but only raise his skill proficiency only to level 6, peak intermediate. So the skill he saw blew up his mind.

After thinking it back, it was no surprise he would get that much proficiency in a single night. His mind is almost reaching its breaking point, facing demons, enduring the sudden flood of memories, breaking from the shackle that binds him in his mind, and then the last, rebelling against the devil.

There was so much happening upon his arrival to another world that stressed his mind, and also the fact that he was still a low level awakener, greatly influenced his growth.

Soma shook his head to focus on the thing before him, first.

"Should I check it?".

Soma inhaled a deep breath before he opened his mouth.
